19 Kids From Real Housewives Where Are They Now?

The Real Housewives franchise is one of the most popular ones out there. These Bravo TV shows focus on (and have focused on) attractive and affluent women in Orange County, New York City, Atlanta, New Jersey, Washington, D.C., Beverly Hills, Miami, Potomac, and Dallas. There are even international versions, but today, the series set in U.S. cities will be highlighted. Specifically, the kids of the shows will be!

Yes, while the housewives are the stars, their families and friends are often featured as well, as fans get to go into their homes and see them interact with husbands, kids, parents and other loved ones. But what are some of the favorite children of The Real Housewives up to now? Let's find out!

Down below, there are 19 different kids or sets of kids from some of the most famous wives of the past. Some of these supporting cast members are all grown up with kids of their own. A few are still the funny and fashionable little kids they were on television a few years ago. A couple have even been on other reality shows. And all of them are probably still leading super exciting lives… just off camera these days!

19 Albie, Lauren, And Chris Manzo

Caroline Manzo was the matriarch of The Real Housewives of New Jersey and fans admired her no-nonsense attitude and her tight-knit family. In fact, the group even got their own spinoff series called Manzo'd With Children, which ran for three seasons on Bravo.

Since their days on RHONJ, Lauren married Vito Scalia and the two welcomed a daughter, Marchesa Anna Scalia, in 2017. Albie recently launched Bloom & Birch, a company that produces real roses that last over a year without any water or sunlight. And Chris released a children's book, Oliver Brightside: You Don't Want That Penny and is said to be working on a sequel, as well as a middle-grade novel.

18 Ashlee Holmes, CJ Laurita, And Nicholas Laurita

RHONJ was a family affair, as Jacqueline Laurita was on the series and is married to Caroline's brother, Chris. Her oldest child, Ashlee, is remembered for yanking out Danielle Staub's hair, but she is all grown up now!

She and Pete Malleo were married in August 2018, after bringing a son, Cameron Hendrix Malleo, into the world. Ashlee also recently started a podcast called Parenthood Etc. Jacqueline's middle child, CJ, is in high school now, which probably makes many who remember him being a little kid feel old. And as fans know, Nicholas, the youngest, was diagnosed with autism, and the family attends close to 10 autism-related conferences a year to share their story.

17 Shane, Kara, And Colton Keough

Time to shift over to The Real Housewives of Orange County and talk about Jeana Keough's clan! Shane Keough signed as a minor league outfielder in June 2006 with the Class A affiliate of the Oakland Athletics and was released in 2010. Since then, he got engaged to Brittany McGowan, who is one of the Briefcase Models on the new Deal or No Deal.

Kara married NFL player Kyle Bosworth in 2014, and they have a daughter, Decker Kate Bosworth. And Colton's online presence shows that he has been having fun with his dog and that he celebrated Kara's 30th with her!

16 Gigi, Bella, And Anwar Hadid

While all of these kids were popular amongst fans, these next kiddos are famous around the world. Yolanda Hadid, of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, was a model herself, and she passed those genes along to Gigi, Bella, and Anwar. Name a runway show. Name a magazine. Name a designer. These three have done it all!

Gigi signed with IMG Models in 2013, made her debut in the Top 50 Models ranking on Models.com in 2014 and was named International Model of the Year by the British Fashion Council in 2016. Bella signed with IMG in 2014 and was voted Model of the Year for Model.com in 2016. And Anwar signed to IMG in 2016.

15 Brooke Brinson, Whitney Davis, Chad Davis, And Kimberly Jackson

Another ex-housewife from Beverly Hills is Kim Richards, and she is next on the list. One of her kids was admitted to a psychiatric facility, one had some issues with alcohol, and three of them appeared on Dr. Phil's show to discuss their mother's legal and personal issues. But there has been some good, too!

Her oldest, Brooke Wiederhorn, announced she was expecting baby boy #2 this past Thanksgiving. Husband and wife Brooke and Thayer Wiederhorn became parents to their first son, Hucksley Andrew Wiederhorn, in September 2016. And her youngest, Kimberly, recently celebrated her 23rd birthday and seems to be happy with a certain man in her life, according to recent photos.

14 Ashley Zarlin, Joshua Waring, And Sophie Waring

Orange County's Lauri Peterson is mom to Ashley Zarlin, Josh Waring, and Sophie Waring. Ashley went from being an OC Angel to starting Cheeky Minx, an online clothing store, and The Cheeky Blonde, a fashion blog. She is dating Todd Clever, a rugby union player who became the first U.S. player to play Super Rugby and who is the most capped player in United States rugby union history.

Sophie is all grown up and is a hairstylist. And Josh has had some legal troubles. In 2011, he got married, but seven months later, the marriage was annulled and a restraining order was requested against Josh. In 2012, though, the couple had a daughter, Kennady Kaydence, whom Lauri and her husband, George, eventually legally adopted.

13 Raquel And Alexa Curtin 

Oh, those Curtin girls (Lynne's daughters in OC)… Two years ago, Alexa was awarded $2.25 million in a lawsuit. Last year, Alexa got in trouble with the law. And then, again, this year (already). But that's not all: she performed as Jayden Taylors in order to pay for surgery costs, and her sister, Raquel, has a social media account dedicated to pictures of herself, covered in tattoos and not much else.

But that is not all either! Alexa is married to a man that was involved in another one of her issues with the law, and Raquel has a son named Carter Peterson.

12 Brielle, Ariana, KJ, Kash, Kaia And Kane Biermann

Over the years, fans have watched this family grow and change. KJ was born in 2011, Kash (who was recently drafted number one overall in baseball and who endured a dog bite that nearly blinded him a couple of years ago) was born in 2012, and twins Kaia and Kane (whom Kim has been accused of photoshopping) were born in 2013.

Kim also has two daughters from previous relationships-Brielle and Ariana (who has been posing in bodysuits and skin-hugging outfits online).

11 Ally Shapiro

Ally was seen on The Real Housewives of New York and is the daughter of Jill Zarin. Her plot lines included dealing with juvenile arthritis and struggling to reach a healthy size. Now, she is all grown up!

According to Bravo TV's website , she graduated from Vanderbilt University, and she decided to pursue a master's degree in contemporary art at Sotheby's Institute of Art-a passion that could have developed after years of attending Art Basel in Miami with her mom. She was also seen on another Bravo show, Millionaire Matchmaker, since Jill wanted her friend Patti's help in leading her daughter to love.

10 Nicholas, Maximillia, Katarina, And Collette Dubrow

Heather Dubrow was on RHOC and her husband Terry appeared on the show with her, as well as on series such as Botched, Good Work, Bridalplasty, and Botched by Nature. The two have four children-Nicholas, Max, Katarina, and Collette, who influenced Heather's  decision to leave RHOC. 

Her oldest became teens, and she wanted them to make their own decisions about being on display in this way. When she does share their photos online, though, true fans are thrilled to see this family and are in awe of how much they have grown up since being on this Bravo series.

9 Jax And Ella Rae Thomson

There are some other young children of these shows that fans were used to seeing on TV each week, such as Heather Thomson's two kids in New York. She has a daughter, Ella Rae, and a son Jax, whose health issues were shown regularly. After leaving the series and leaving her fashion brand Yummie Tummie, Heather has more time for her family (though she is still plenty busy!).

Her profile boasts photos of her skiing with Ella, of Jax playing with his dog, of the whole family celebrating birthdays, and of herself (enjoying everything from workouts and other fashion brands to Nutritionary, her meal replacement and nutrition line on Evine).

8 Kingston And Preston Rovsek

On the other coast, The Real Housewives of Orange County used to star Lizzie Rovsek. She has been in the headlines recently as she and Christian split and reached a divorce settlement, which covers both child and spousal support. This ex-couple will share joint legal and physical custody of their sons, Preston and Kingston.

And Lizzie's recent posts online were spent gushing over her boys! King asked when he could start asking a girl to be his Valentine (a cute story shared on Twitter), and then, in a separate post, his mom shared that he only had a couple of days left being six. On Valentine's Day, she posted a photo of her and Preston, asking if he would be her Valentine.

7 Mackenna, Melania, And James Bellino

Also in OC, there was Alexis Bellino, who divorced her husband, Jim, after 13 years of marriage. The two agreed to split custody of their three kids, though-Mackenna, Melania and James-putting them first, no matter what. These three are also in talent shows and theater productions and at school dances and cooking and going to sporting events… They seem quite active and quite grown up since the last time they were seen on television.

Plus, they could have a baby brother or sister soon! Alexis went official with a new boyfriend recently in a photo where he was cradling her belly; she stated that she was not pregnant, but they wouldn't mind one more in the future.

6 Kingsley And Cassius Taekman

Back in New York, Kristen Taekman used to be around, and since leaving the show, it was revealed that her husband, Josh, was a regular on the website Ashley Madison. The two did not let that separate them, though, as they are still together, going strong and always involved in family fun like ski trips and birthday parties.

Plus, Kristen has been modeling since she was 14, she has a fashion blog, and it looks like her kiddos may have taken after her; they recently were in a photo shoot for a brand called 'Ever After' and she regularly shares stylish photos of daughter Kingsley and son Cassius.

5 Jackson And Skylar Jordan

Charrisse Jackson-Jordan was on the first two seasons of The Real Housewives of Potomac. She was married to NBA player-turned-coach Eddie Jordan for 20 years, and the two ended their marriage in 2017. And speaking of basketball… Their son, Jackson, is on the roster for the Long Island University Post Pioneers and aspires to play basketball professionally and pursue modeling.

They also have a daughter named Skylar, and this past fall, Skylar started school at Spellman College in Atlanta. Like a good mom should, the ex-housewife made sure that her daughter's dorm room was decorated in a super fun way!

4 Renee, Kathryn, And James Rocco

Another Potomac housewife was Katie Rost, who, with her ex-husband Dr. James Orsini, has a son named James Rocco and twin daughters named Kathryn and Renee. However, earlier last year, she said on her account that she had not seen her children in nearly two months and that she had the cops called on her during her last two attempts to see them.

And a week ago, she shared a photo of her kids, with a long caption claiming that her ex-husband was the cause of all their issues. There has been some good news, though: in November, Katie announced she was expecting a fourth child.

3 Vinny, Duke, And Jesse Van Patten

Eileen Davidson of RHOBH is married to Vincent Van Patten. Van Patten has two sons, Duke and Vinny, and together, the couple has Jesse. Eileen stated that Duke was studying acting in New York after graduating from the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School in England.

His IMDb page includes acting credits in works like The Guest House and a miscellaneous crew credit in this year's Walk To Vegas, a gambling movie starring his father. She said that Vinny wanted to go into production. And the youngest, Jesse, is a ham that will never take direction, she stated-though he is into coding and playing the drums.

2 Mason And Jake Cibrian

Brandi Glanville brought the drama on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but her two sons, Mason and Jake, were not seen that often. In recent news, though, Mason graduated from Ace Culinary Academy, and Jake posed for a Super Bowl pic for his mother. Other headlines surrounding these two children have to do with Brandi's ex-husband Eddie Cibrian and his current wife LeAnn Rimes.

For instance, Rimes celebrated stepmother's day with the boys, and family vacations are taken with Rimes, Cibrian, and the boys. But prepare for more news featuring the entire crew, since Brandi shared that the feud is over, an hours-long discussion went down, and that they will not be getting rid of her on any holidays!

1 Kennedy Armstrong

Lastly, in Beverly Hills, Taylor Armstrong was famous for throwing her daughter, Kennedy, elaborate birthday parties. Now, since Taylor is no longer on the show, her now-pre-teen daughter has been out of the spotlight… for the most part.

Taylor married John Bluher, one of the lawyers who helped her get out of legal trouble with her ex-husband, the late Russell Armstrong. And this new couple will sometimes share photos of Kennedy, including her at cheer competitions. We wonder if her sweet sixteen in a couple of years will be as fab as the parties remembered from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills… ?
