An old clip of RHOP’s Mia Thornton<\/a> has resurfaced on the internet and Reddit is going wild. This March, the Real Housewives star made a dramatic exit at the show’s juicy reunion. And, judging by her unearthed reality TV past, it seems she’s no stranger to having her shining moment.<\/p>\n

During The Real Housewives of Potomac, Mia and her husband, Gordon Thornton, went through a rough patch. She opted to get back together with her childhood sweetheart, a radio DJ called Inc. But, now Gordon and Mia are back together. Their family is a unit once more and now a clip of the two in their early reality TV days is doing the rounds.<\/p>\n

Mia and Gordon’s throwback moment<\/h2>\n

At 27 years old, Mia Thornton, (then Mia Fields) was living out her “fairytale” marrying Gordon.<\/p>\n

A throwback clip of the two has been unearthed and posted to Reddit<\/a> and people can’t believe their eyes.<\/p>\n

Gordon and Mia appear smitten as she explains to cameras she’s “ecstatic.”<\/p>\n

The couple’s moment of fame was filmed a whopping 13 years ago.<\/p>\n

Now, people have seen all kinds of ups and downs in their marriage. Gordon and Mia appear to be standing the test of time, as does her Real Housewives fame.<\/p>\n

She’s not the only Bravo<\/a> star to have appeared on Say Yes to the Dress. Her RHOP co-star, Ashley Darby, was also once on the show.<\/p>\n

It looks like a wedding TV show really is a segway into Real Housewives fame as Porsha Williams’ first marriage to Kordell Stewart aired on WeTV’s Platinum Weddings in 2011.<\/p>\n

People don’t seem to be supporting Mia’s foray into fame, however, with some writing on X: “People really make it their life’s purpose to become famous” and “These people spend forever trying to get on reality TV.”<\/p>\n

More say: “I’m telling you reality television is addictive. Folks don’t wanna work after they see them lights.”<\/p>\n
