List of episodes

Following a very poorly received season, it was announced in September 2021 that a reunion for the season will not take place. This marks the first time in the history of The Real Housewives franchise that a US series will not be followed up with a reunion special. Bravo stated "Due to scheduling challenges around taping the reunion of 'The Real Housewives of New York City' in a timely manner. It's disappointing to not be able to bring the cast back together, but we are happy to have ended on such a high note with the finale, and are now shifting our focus to next season."[1]

This marked the final appearances of Luann de Lesseps, Ramona Singer, Sonja Morgan and Leah McSweeney. The season also marked the only appearance of Eboni K. Williams.
