‘Real Housewives of Miami’ on Pause After Season 7

“The Real Housewives of Miami” just hit the brakes HARD … production on the series has been placed on pause, and its future is anything but locked in … TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to the series tell us production is not moving forward right now, and there are no concrete plans for a new season. Still, the show hasn’t been officially canceled … leaving the door open for a possible comeback.

We’re told Bravo is currently taking a hard look at the franchise, with discussions underway about a potential cast shakeup or full reboot to refresh the series. So far, no timeline has been set for when or if “RHOM” will return …

The uncertainty isn’t exactly new for the series. The show debuted in 2011 as the seventh entry in the ‘Real Housewives’ franchise.
