The Real Housewives of Miami Season 1

We meet the ladies of Miami, who can weather the heat, even if it's of the drama variety.

It's party central between a ladies' luncheon (with transportation issues) and an all-star gala (with an interloper). See the shots from the shindigs here.

Art-house owner Adriana hosts a gallery opening, but the event begins to fizzle when the artist doesn't complete his paintings in time and her backup entertainment fails to impress.

After 'crashing' the gala, Cristy is shocked to get an invoice from Lea; Adriana frets over her finances; and vegetarian Lea unwittingly rocks up to Alexia's hog roast.

Larsa invites the ladies to a cooking lesson; Cristy and Alexia are in a fashion show for charity.

The ladies close out the season with salacious psychic reading, and a surprise luncheon that brings the heat, literally.

The ladies of Miami get together to set the record straight, solving some of the biggest controversies of the season.
