‘Real Housewives’ Star Reveals Why She Split With Husband After 26 Years

“I 100 percent should have left sooner,” the star said.

Rachel Zoe is opening up about the end of her 26-year marriage to Rodger Berman. The fashion mogul, 54, revealed that she and the technology entrepreneur had simply become different people by the time they separated in September 2024. The newest cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Zoe shares details of her divorce on the upcoming Season 15, premiering December 4. “I was done. I was really done,” Zoe said. She filed for divorce in July. The stylist said she does not “suffer from guilt,” claiming “three-quarters [their marriage] was amazing.” The couple met as students at George Washington University in 1991 and married in 1998. They share two sons, Skyler, 14, and Kaius, 11. Zoe said the turning point came when she realized she and Berman no longer agreed on major decisions and “on what certain outcomes should be.” She began to question whether staying together was an “advantageous situation for [their] children. “In hindsight, I 100 percent should have left sooner,” she adds, noting that many women feel the same once they finally step away. Zoe said she would urge “women to be independent,” claiming her professional, social, and financial independence allowed her to move on from the marriage.
