The Real Housewives Of Miami's Julia On Being The First Lesbian Housewife

Julia Lemigova is a landmark Real Housewife, and she knows it. What we love about her is how she wants to use her new platform to help the LGBTQ+ community, which she specifically noted when asked what ventures she hopes to pursue in the future. "I do want to do more for the LGBTQ+ community because I realized how amazing it is to help other people and something that I realize I could probably," Lemigova told us. "I want to do more. I want to learn more about that."

This is, of course, because of her position as the franchise's first lesbian housewife. But how does this position make her feel? "At the beginning, I'm not going to lie, I was a little bit nervous because people would say, how does it feel to represent the community?" Lemigova explained to us. "It's such a big responsibility. When I do something, I want to excel in it, but this is not a sport to excel. This is actually helping other lives. You have to really know what you're doing."

Lemigova revealed that this openness was "new" to her and that it "felt like a very big responsibility." This is only natural, but Lemigova has been feeling some love for being so open. "I already had a lot of messages from people and responses saying the warmest, nicest things about it," she continued. "I want to continue doing it, do more, and represent our community in the best possible way. Also, my God, it's about time as well. Right?" Lemigova is absolutely correct, and her inclusion is hopefully just the beginning.
