Part of the fun of watching any Real Housewives series is following along with your favourite Housewives online and watching the drama unfold on social media in real-time before reliving it on the show.
Social media and “the blogs” have undoubtedly become a huge part of the Housewives narrative, as fights go down, cross-franchise friendships form and the stars get feedback from the fans. But who, out of all the Housewives current and past, reigns supreme on social media? We’re counting down the list of the top 10 most-followed Real Housewives on Instagram, based on their follower count at the time of writing.

6. Kyle Richards – 4 million followers
While it may be debatable whether she’s the queen of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she is undoubtedly the queen of Instagram when it comes to her diamond-holding co-stars. Kyle sits at 4 million followers, sharing looks at her media appearances, her upcoming feature in the Halloween movie, and some blast-from-the-past throwback shots. @Kylerichards18 also shares photos of her famous family, from sisters (and co-stars) Kathy and Kim to husband Mauricio and their daughters (who are now reality stars in their own right on Buying Beverly Hills).

The Real Housewives of Miami (and OnlyFans) star comes in fourth place in the Instagram followers chart. @Larsapippen’s Instagram page is full of glamorous modelling shots and selfies of the star, including some sneaky hints of her new relationship with basketball royalty Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan (because Larsa is known to move in the basketball world).

3. Eva Marcille – 4.9 million followers
In third place is this former Real Housewives of Atlanta star. The model and winner of America’s Next Top Model sits pretty at nearly 5 million followers, but don’t expect to just see high fashion modeling shots from @evamarcille. What can you expect from her page? It’s essentially a meme page, with lots of comedy reposts and a few personal posts of her life and family scattered in.

2. Porsha Williams – 7.1 million followers
The reign of the RHOA stars continues with Porsha nabbing the #2 spot (with over 2 million more followers than her former co-star in third!). The former Housewife’s multiple appearances across the Bravo network helped boost her exposure (from Bravo’s Chat Room to her spin-off, Porsha’s Family Matters). Followers of @porsha4real can expect her content to live up to her handle, with an inside look at her life, plus plenty of photos of her social justice and charity work.

1. Kandi Burruss – 10.1 million followers
You know you’re the one when you have an OG handle, and @kandi is just that. She’s been a notable force in the entertainment industry long before her tenure on Real Housewives of Atlanta, so it’s no surprise her follower count reflects that. From her days in girl group Xscape to winning The Masked Singer to her entrepreneurial ventures, Kandi is a workforce that doesn’t stop, and over 10 million fans love following along. Her Instagram is a mix of media appearance highlights, produced comedy shorts and personal photo dumps that feature some A-list friends.
