Longoria expressed an interest in reuniting her fellow housewives five years after the finale. She told NewBeauty December 2017 that she misses it “every day”.

During the video chat, the Devious Maids alum said that “We were a true comedy.” “We were always a joke, then gravity would take your by surprise. That’s what I loved most about the show — that we could do two things.”

Longoria said, “We have all made these incredible friendships outside of the show that will last forever.”

Cherry suggested that a reboot might be possible one day, but only if it felt natural.

It is a formula I am familiar with, but it would be great to have more money and time to test it.
