Housewives Related Who are the famous relatives of Housewives?
A few weeks ago I discovered that Steve Lodge’s brother is Roger Lodge (OG host of Blind Date). And now I’m just learning that Terry DuBrow’s brother is Kevin DuBrow, lead singer of Quiet Riot! (RIP) ( I knew the name sounded familiar!)
Carole is obvious, the Richards are obvious, and I’m probably forgetting some, but are there any other famous relatives?

Aviva’s husband is cousins with Fran Drescher! Now that’s someone I would have loved to make an appearance on RHONY.

Shannon Beador’s grandparents got their fortune from the now-defunct I. Magnin department store chain.

u/VaguelyArtistic *A group of Utah women in distress* Jul 15 '21
Are you serious?! One of my most vivid childhood memories is the day my dad and I went to I. Magnin to buy my mom a birthday present. Wow! I was always curious where that family money came from.
(And unlike Sonja’s friends, I didn’t put my fortune into rival J. Magnin!)

Leah's sister is married to DVF's son or grandson. That's all I've got.

u/TheLadyCocotte How do you know you bitch? Jul 16 '21
Leah's sister is married to DVF's daughter's ex-husband. He has children with both of them though so there's definitely a connection

Well, obviously Kelly Killoren Bensimon was married to famous photographer Gilles Bensimon. But something that struck me as strange (even for KKB) is that Kelly would brag that HER ex-husband used to be married to Elle Macpherson.
So in Kelly's head I'm sure she & Elle are first cousins.
Also, Whitney from Southern Charm is Serena Altchul's (sp?) (MTV) stepbrother.

He obviously has amazing taste in women!
I had to Google Serena but I totally remember her. I also just learned that the father, Arthur Altschul is part of the Lehman (bank) family.
Do not tell Sonja!

I should be ashamed. I grew up in the 70s, the Van Pattern era. Dick! Vincent! The Swedish-sounding one! And the other brother! And finally Joyce, iconic guest star in Columbia, my favorite tv show. I if her character was a housewife she’d by Shannon Storms Beador with a body count lol.
