Is Shakira Set To Join Real Housewives Of Miami?

Season 7 of The Real Housewives of Miami has been delivering the drama—and fans are eating it up.

Between Guerdy Abraira and Julia Lemigova’s tension boiling over into a full-blown water fight, and Larsa Pippen’s explosive fallout (and quick makeup) with Lisa Hochstein, viewers haven’t had a moment to breathe. And now, the latest buzz? Rumors that global superstar Shakira might be joining the RHOM cast.

It’s the kind of casting news that could break the internet. Imagine the Colombian icon clinking mojitos with Marysol Patton and Alexia Nepola, or dishing out music industry wisdom to Adriana de Moura. The idea itself sounds like reality TV gold. But as enticing as it seems, is there any truth to it?

The Rumor That Set Social Media on Fire

In true internet fashion, speculation spread like wildfire after a fake news post suggested Shakira was joining RHOM.

But let’s clear the air—Shakira is not becoming a Real Housewife of Miami. The online chatter was just that: a rumor, with no confirmation from Bravo or Shakira herself.

As one clever observer put it, “While Shakira’s hips don’t lie, apparently someone else’s lips did.” Unfortunately, fans hoping to see the singer navigating catfights and cocktails on-screen will have to keep dreaming. A cameo? That would still be iconic—but for now, there’s nothing in the works.

What’s Really Happening in RHOM

While Shakira won’t be trading stadium tours for South Beach soirees, there’s plenty of star power still brewing in the RHOM universe.

Bravo reportedly plans to begin filming Season 8 in January 2026, though the network has yet to confirm which of the current cast members will return.

One standout this season? Newcomer Stephanie Shojaee. From the jump, she’s proved she’s not afraid of confrontation—even with someone as formidable as Alexia Nepola. Their clash was teased in the season trailer, and fans are eager to watch it unfold.

Given her strong presence and close friendship with Larsa, it’s a safe bet Stephanie will still be holding that mojito next season.

As for Julia Lemigova, her spot on the cast may not be so secure. After a particularly heated feud with Guerdy—and rumored fallouts with longtime pal Adriana later in the season—Julia’s future is murky.

Add to that her growing family (she and wife Martina Navratilova recently adopted two young boys), and she may decide it’s time to hit pause on the reality spotlight to focus on home life.

When and Where to Watch

Whether or not there’s a shake-up coming, The Real Housewives of Miami shows no signs of slowing down.

New episodes air Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo, and for UK and Irish viewers, the drama streams on Hayu.
