Marisa, 42, filed divorce documents in L.A. back in February and wants her and Dean, 43, to have joint custody of their son, Jack, 13, and daughter, Darryl, 11, TMZ reports.

As fans of RHOBH will recall, Marisa infamously admitted on camera that Dean (the son of the late Richard D. Zanuck, an esteemed Hollywood vet who produced classic films including Jaws and Driving Miss Daisy) was “not my type.”

While she wasn’t a full-time Housewife, Marisa got plenty of airtime during season three of the Bravo show in 2012 as a so-called “Friend of the Housewives.” She was closest with cast member Kyle Richards, because she worked with Richards’ husband, Mauricio Umanksy, in real estate.

After her one-year guest stint on Housewives, Marisa appeared on several episodes of Million Dollar Listing: Los Angeles. In 2013, she teamed up with Million Dollar Listing: New York’s Ryan Serhant to start her own Beverly Hills brokerage called Nest Seekers/Zanuck.

"I'm a mom with three kids in grade school. Spending time 9 to 7 in the office every day managing other agents … This is [a] whole new level of commitment," she told the Beverly Hills Courier prior to splitting from Dean. "I'm scared to fail. But being scared motivates me. Every day [my husband] tells me, 'I'm so proud of you.’"
