The Real World reunion: Cast members from the MTV series The Real World came together in Washington D.C. for a good cause at The Ovarian Cancer National Alliance event in Washington D.C. on Tuesday that was hosted by The Real World: Boston alum and Wisconsin Congressman Sean Duffy
Rachel Campos-Duffy and David ‘Puck’ Rainey (The Real World: San Francisco), and Norman Korpi (The Real World: New York) were all in attendance.
The Real World, which took inspiration from the 1973 documentary An American Family, followed seven to eight people among the younger generation who were chosen to live together in a new city all under one roof.
The series has been hailed as the beginning of the reality show genre.
Hanging out: Rachel Campos-Duffy - Sean's wife - mingled with her former castmate and ex-beau David ‘Puck’ Rainey from The Real World: San Francisco, left, along with Norman Korpi (The Real World: New York) and Lauren Stucky (The Challenge: Free Agents)
Where time has gone: David ‘Puck’ Rainey, right, appeared to be catching up with Derrick Kosinski (Road Rules: X-Treme and The Challenge: Battle of the Sexes II) at the caucus
In remembrance: The event served to honour the late Diem Brown (from MTV's The Challenge) who lost her long battle against ovarian and colon cancer late last year at age 34
Back at the event, 43-year-old reality star-turned-politician Duffy looked a bit different from his early TV days when he was a scrubbed face kid.
Duffy appeared clean-cut in a neat purple suit with blue tie and beyond, tied the desk were a bunch of blue balloons.
He was joined by a few others from the wildly successful reality series including his wife Rachel Campos-Duffy and David ‘Puck’ Rainey, who both starred on The Real World: San Francisco in 1994.
The way they were: David 'Puck' Rainey, left, starred in 1994's The Real World: San Francisco with Rachel, front left, and soon fell out with all of his housemates and was evicted
Start of something big: The Real World: New York City in 1992 was the first season and has been credited with starting the whole reality show craze
From reality show to politics: The Real World: New York's Sean Duffy went on became a member of the US House Of Representatives where he's held a seat since 2011
Rainey, 47, who was known simply as 'Puck' during his 20-episode season, looked a far cry from his blond flip-haired days.
Fans might recall how Rainey's confrontations with his cast members led to his eviction from the community house.
Rachel, 43, looked chic in a monochrome print dress as she assisted her husband in spreading the word.
So proudly she hails: Rachel, 43, is now Mrs. Duffy and has seven children with Sean

The Arizona native, who shares seven children with Sean, didn't seem to mind mingling with 'Puck,' with whom she had an in-house, ill-fated romance on their show.
Rachel shared a picture of the reality stars on Twitter along with the caption: 'Bringing the @mtv real world crew for a great cause. @normankorpi @laurelstucky @mtvpuck #30daysofteal #COCCnow.'
Norman Korpi, 48, who starred in The Real World: New York, which was the very first season, in 1992, was on hand to give his support as well.
Korpi - who is now a filmmaker and a painter - shared the SoHo loft in New York City with six other castmembers and his dog Gouda.
Derrick Kosinski, 32, from Road Rules: X-Treme and The Challenge: Battle of the Sexes II, and Laurel Stucky, 30, from The Challenge: Free Agents, also lent their support at the fundraiser.
