Real Housewives of Sydney star Terry Biviano addresses her social media absence as she attends Derby Day in Melbourne

Real Housewives of Sydney star Terry Biviano has revealed the surprising reason she does not use social media.

The reality TV star, 49, told Daily Mail Australia at Derby Day in Melbourne on Saturday that she chooses to stay off social media in order to maintain some privacy in her life.

'I'm not big on social media, I never have been,' Terry began.

'I'm actually quite private and shy, even though I'm out there. So, I'm a bit of a contradiction.'

Terry cut a stylish figure at the event in a black Valentino lace jumpsuit, which featured transparent sleeves and an eye-popping white frilled collar.

She completed her getup with black platform boots and a matching large black hat.

The TV personality accessorised with a black designer Valentino handbag and stylish aviator sunglasses.

Her admission follows reports that Terry is set to make a dramatic return to the 2025 series of Real Housewives of Sydney.

The shoe designer is said to have become a polarising figure among the cast, particularly with founding members Krissy Marsh and Nicole Gazal-O'Neil.

Biviano, who joined the show in 2023 to shake things up, found herself at odds with Marsh and Gazal-O'Neil, the only remaining original Housewives.

Sources close to the show told The Daily Telegraph that the producers went to great lengths to accommodate Biviano's demands, which included changing filming locations and enduring her habitual lateness.

By the end of season two, the rift had reportedly grown severe. 

It reached boiling point when Marsh and Gazal-O'Neil, along with another cast member, issued an ultimatum to the producers: either Biviano goes, or they do.

Fortunately, they managed to work things out and Terry is set to join the other stars in the upcoming series of the popular Binge show.
