Marysol Patton got emotional while looking back on Adriana de Moura’s body-shaming on “The Real Housewives of Miami.”

At Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” Awards in New York City Wednesday, Patton and Alexia Nepola recalled the shouting match de Moura started during the eighth episode of Season 7 — the verbal tiff eventually devolved into de Moura shouting during the cast’s yacht day, “Go get plastic surgery on your bony knees, cause they need it! Your wrinkled knees!”

Nepola noted that the pair “were on another boat so we couldn’t hear” what de Moura, 59, was saying at the time, but said she was “laughing” at the “ridiculous” spectacle. Patton, however, said she heard the body-shaming jabs “loud and clear.”

“I have to say that those things, like affect me a lot, because people used to say those things to my mom,” an emotional Patton told hosts Evan Real and Danny Evans during the onstage discussion.

“You know and nowadays, nobody should be doing that about anybody, but this is the world we live in,” Nepola said during the event, which was presented by Tri-State Cadillac and Malibu.

“We do not support that,” she continued. “And unfortunately you see it on our show, and we’re sorry for that. We have no control over that.”

Murphy noted that body-shaming is “just going low for no reason,” as Patton wiped away tears.

Murphy and Real reassured the reality star, 58, that fans have “so much love” for both her and her late mother, Elsa, who appeared on the first couple of seasons of “RHOM,” and passed away at the age of 84 in 2019.

“We miss mama Elsa, we miss her!” Real said as the crowd cheered, with Nepola agreeing, “Me too.”

Nepola, 58, and Patton first appeared on the Bravo hit series from 2011 to 2013. Then show was then put on pause before it was revived in 2021.

They both returned for the show’s reboot, which initially aired on Peacock before returning to Bravo.

The “Real Housewives of Miami” OGs were honored at Wednesday’s first-ever VRT Awards ceremony with the Golden Kettle Award — the Virtual Reali-Tea’s “version of a lifetime achievement award” in reality TV.
