Who is Marie Reyes? 8 Things You Need to Know About The #RHOD Pal

Because we know you're curious after that night in Austin...

By Rachael Roberts
More of The Epic Confrontation Between LeeAnne and Marie

The Real Housewives of Dallas drama spun out of control during the girls trip to Austin, Texas. Between lots of Jesus Juice, Brandi Redmond's table top somersault, - oh, and LeeAnne's threats to gut her friend "carnie style" - the drama definitely got bigger in Texas. But while we've gotten to know our Housewives pretty well over the Season, the lady at the center of all the Text-gate drama and recent poop story debacle has remained a mystery. 

How to Watch

Catch up on The Real Housewives of Dallas on Peacock or the Bravo App.

Well, consider this Marie Reyes mystery solved! Take a look below and find out everything you need to know about LeeAnne Locken's long time pal. 

1. She met her husband Angel on Match.com.

I managed to corner the best looking model of the @neimanmarcus #ArtOfFashion show last night 😍🙈

In Marie's own words, "Angel and I met the old fashioned way, via Match, long before its algorithms worked very well almost 13 years ago to the month." Internet love does exist, you guys! 

2. And they eloped!

It gets even more romantic. Marie dishes, "Angel and I eloped nine months after meeting and his best friend had to bribe the officiant to seal the deal with a marriage certificate from the State of California." The one time we are in support of bribery. 

3. She met Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Good luck in New Hampshire, @hillaryclinton! #imwithher

So far, we're pretty jealous of Marie's life. Actually finding her soulmate via a dating app, meeting a First Lady, and then she...

4. She's seen Hamilton.

Seriously, can we just be Marie Reyes? So far she is pretty much fulfilling all of our dreams. We actually live in New York and haven't seen Hamilton, yet. Something we feel is a grave injustice. (We're sure Alexander would, too).

5. She has an adorable cat named Lewis.

Trying to get ready for my Birthday dinner, but Lewis has other plans. #littlestinker

Do you really need the sink?

Who could get mad at this cat in your sink? No one, we say! The only problem we have is that Marie doesn't Instagram enough of Lewis. He is clearly star material.

6. She is a registered nurse and certified Botox injectionist.

Researching @tonymolyus :) nothing more cutting edge than #koreanbeautyproducts

Yup, skin is this girl's game - she owns and operates her own skin business - SkinSpaMED in Dallas and Tarrant County. Not only was she a national injection trainor, but she also sat on the Expert Injector Advisory Board for Galderma Aesthetics. Basically, any Housewife's dream best friend. 

7. Her vacation game is strong.

From Morocco to Madrid, Marie knows how to travel in style. Riding camels in Marrakesh, watching bull fights in Spain, skiing on the Atlas mountains is just a typical day in the life of Marie Reyes. Next Dallas Housewives vacation, anyone? 

8. Her dancing game is even stronger.

It's not dancing if you don't shake your hair...and take your heels off 💃🏽 @notiedinner

Okay, so maybe not that strong. But we gotta give it to Marie for trying. We mean, dancing alongside Beyonce isn't easy. Believe us, we've tried.
