Bethenny Frankel’s ‘Real Housewives’ Cast Mates Are Allegedly Furious About Her Salary — Who Are the Highest Paid Housewives?

‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’: NeNe Leakes

NeNe reportedly brought home more than $1.5 million for the seventh season of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ — which is believed to be her final season. When asked about her salary, the 47-year-old played it coy, saying, “I was not offered $1.5 [million], let’s be clear, yeah, it’s a lot nicer than that!”

‘Real Housewives of New York City’: Bethenny Frankel

Bethenny’s costars are supposedly furious she’ll be making seven figures upon her return to ‘RHONYC’! As a source told ‘Radar,’ “Ramona [Singer] is absolutely outraged that Bethenny is making a million dollars, especially after her failed talk show.”

‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’: Eileen Davidson

With a reported salary of $750,000 for her first season, newcomer and former soap star Eileen Davidson, who just joined the ‘RHOBH’ cast this year, is believed to be the highest earner of Bravo’s ladies in the 90210!

The rest of the cast members are said to make between $450,000 and $500,000 per season.

‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’: Teresa Giudice

Tre edged out her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga to become the top earner of the sixth season as she allegedly took home more than $700,000 (plus additional bonuses for the reunion specials)!

And she’ll need it, of course. Most of that money will likely go to her legal fees, as she’s set to begin her prison sentence in January for charges related to wire, bank and bankruptcy fraud.

‘Real Housewives of Orange County’: Vicki Gunvalson

Vicki Gunvalson — one of Bravo’s longest standing ‘Housewives’ — is unsurprisingly the top earner on the ‘Orange County’ cast. What perhaps is more shocking is that she only takes home an estimated $500K — which is considerably lower than her highest-earning counterparts in other cities.

‘Real Housewives of Miami’: Adriana de Moura and Joanna Krupa

The ladies of South Beach are by far the lowest paid of all the ‘Real Housewives’ — which may explain why production on the show is currently halted (though they haven’t been canceled, they haven’t been renewed either). In their third (and potentially final) season, Adrianna de Moura and Joanna Krupa tied for top earner, at an unimpressive $75,000 each.
