The Real Housewives of all the cities have offered up their lives to the public, and while sometimes the situations are ?set-up? the drama is often all too real with real life consequences. The Huffington Post broke up some of these life-changing events by the numbers, focusing on bankruptcies, divorces, and businesses in an infographic.
We?re taking their chart a step further, providing a little extra information about each one. This post, we?re listing the divorces. We?ll have separate posts for businesses and bankruptcies.

Of course, most of the relationships showed signs of trouble anyway were probably headed for divorce with or without cameras. In some cases the reality fame might have speeded things along, but that?s just one of those things you?ll never know.
