Luann de Lesseps

The former countess is starting over. Her marriage to Tom D’Agostino Jr. imploded after seven months, and an inebriated de Lesseps, 52, landed behind bars after a scuffle with Palm Beach police. However, the “wake up call,” as Sonja Morgan describes it, led de Lesseps to rehab. “We were there to help her get up,” Ramona Singer notes.

Bethenny Frankel

At 47, the Skinnygirl mogul is juggling two shows, being a single mother and working with Hurricane relief, which meant she was “drained and unbelievably stressed” during this season. While one of her costars helps her with her B Strong initiative (to be revealed at a later time!), not all relationships stayed intact throughout the season. “There were a lot of shifts in friendships,” she says.

Carole Radziwill

For The Widow’s Guide to Sex and Dating author, season 10 was full of fun … and breakups. “It's so hard to break up and it's even harder to break up on national television,” she says about her split from Adam Kenworthy. However, that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good time. “This season is probably going to be the best season that you've ever seen of Real Housewives,” the 54-year-old star notes.

Dorinda Medley

“Explosive sounds about right,” Medley, 53, says about her third season as a Housewife, which includes finally developing a “stronger bond” with Radziwill after initially struggling to connect. “There are so many twists and turns, new allegiances and new friendships,” she reveals. However, one of those twists includes butting heads with Frankel since they both have “very strong personalities.”

Ramona Singer

Singer’s not taking herself “too seriously anymore,” but at 61, she’s not also not letting anyone push her around. “I just think I was a stronger person this year,” she adds. However, she was actually scared during the dreadful Colombian cruise. “The waters were rough, so people were vomiting … I was scared sh—tless.”

Sonja Morgan

It’s all about keeping things light for Morgan, 54, who says this season she made sure there were “a lot of belly laughs” to keep the girls young. She notes she has the most fun with Frankel, adding “we’re all there for each other in the end, but different phases … relationships in New York are made to last.”

Tinsley Mortimer

“This season I really found my two feet to stand on,” Mortimer, 42, tells Us. But with great confidence comes great conflict. The socialite teases clashes with Morgan, who “knows how to push my buttons.” Despite the “constant fireworks,” Mortimer describes the experience as a “therapy session.” She even reconnects with her ex Scott Kluth.
