Marie Reyes from The Real Housewives of Dallas never achieved full-fledged Housewife status and we have gathered interesting information about the life of this "friend of." She appeared on the reality franchise's debut season. Since viewers only saw her during season one, RHOD fans want to learn more about her. This trailblazing friend of the franchise is a successful business owner.
Marie's time on The Real Housewives of Dallas may have been brief, but she did give viewers a taste of who she was for as long as she could. Before she became a part-time reality star, she found success as a registered nurse and the owner of a medical spa. Marie's spa is named SkinSpaMED and offers clients a wide array of skin treatments, from Botox to chemical peels and beyond. Marie's passion for skincare started in 1997. That was when she tried Botox while she was working as a nurse and part-time model. In 2004, Marie opened SkinSpaMed in Dallas. Around the same time as her The Real Housewives of Dallas debut in 2016, she released her luxury skincare line, "Rags-2-Riches."
Although Marie was preoccupied with her burgeoning business, she made time to take part in the show's arguments and conflicts. Despite only appearing in 11 episodes, Marie got into one of the show's most memorable feuds with then-official RHOD housewife, LeeAnne Locken. The argument began with Marie alleging that LeeAnne had once used a gift basket as a toilet at a charity event. LeeAnne refuted these claims but the fight intensified. There were smashed glass bowls and Marie filed a restraining order against LeeAnne. Fortunately, on top of making enemies during her time on The Real Housewives of Dallas, Marie was also able to forge friendships. Marie knew housewife Tiffany Hendra before filming the show. After filming season one, she would also spend time with friends Cary Deuber and outspoken Dallas housewife Stephanie Hollman.
Outside of her group of friends, Marie Reyes has a dependable family life. Marie is married to Angel Reyes, a prominent lawyer who works at his own Texas firm. Marie and Angel are known for their philanthropic efforts, such as hosting charity events to help AIDS Services Dallas. Marie has also served on the board of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and is an avid supporter of the Women's Council for the Dallas Arboretum. Marie and Angel have a 15-year-old daughter named Sofia. Marie was born on March 25 and she is 5'10".
While current housewives may need a backup plan as Dallas cancellation rumors are heating up, Marie Reyes has already figured out her post-Bravo life. Since her time on RHOD, Marie has remained fairly active on social media. Although Marie hasn't tweeted since May 2020, she typically utilizes her Twitter account to promote her skincare products. Marie does not have an Instagram account of her own. She uses TheSkinSpaMed account for personal and business updates.
From deals at her spa to Marie's most recent post about being "on the road to happiness," the former Dallas friend's social media satisfies fans' needs. Overall, Marie Reyes' short-lived career as a "friend of" on RHOD isn't the most interesting thing about her. As a business owner, wife, mother, and philanthropist Marie has lived a full life, on and off The Real Housewives of Dallas.
