The Single Mom Posse of Potomac

Before the launch of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City blessed us during the 2020 pandemic season, there hadn’t been a new franchise since Potomac and Dallas both premiered in 2016. Over the past five seasons, The Real Housewives of Potomac cast has served up plenty of drama, weddings, babies, and even multiple court cases. At the end of an explosive Season Five, things culminated with a proposal for Robyn Dixon

RHOP is for sure one of the rawest Housewives franchises and you can always count on the women to come from the heart and take no bullshit. The Fifth Season of the show gave more insight into the lives of the single mom Housewives on the show, Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon. Gizelle navigates the delicate dance of dating her ex-husband and father of her children, Jamal Bryant, while her daughters struggle to accept their new family dynamic. Robyn and her ex, Juan Dixon, house hunt while Robyn works on releasing some of the resentment she has from parenting solo while Juan was an NBA player.

The Housewives have left an undeniable mark on pop culture and it’s inspiring to see single mom stories be apart of that conversation. Below, we’ve rounded up all the single moms to ever grace the Potomac universe.
