90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Season 6 is officially here! The first new couple introduced this season was James Solis and his wife Meitalia Tantri Solis. James first met Meitalia online, and he flew to Indonesia after only two months of dating to meet her. After getting engaged, Meitalia later moved to the US to marry James. However, Meitalia has grown bored of her life in America and now plans to return to Indonesia with James.

Ironically, James and Meitalia have quite a lot in common with an infamous 90 Day Fiancé couple. The newbies share many similarities with Gino Palazzolo and Jasmine Pineda, who have become quite controversial in the franchise. Will James and Meitalia be as despised by fans as Gino and Jasmine? Or will the new couple forge a more positive path on the show?

Meitalia is very emotional like Jasmine

Right off the bat, Meitalia opened up to viewers about her strong emotions. The Indonesian native admitted that everything was always very emotional for her, and claimed that she could be “one to one thousand”. After James broke the news that their dog Jojo couldn’t come to Indonesia right away, Meitalia didn’t hold back. While it was understandable that the news was upsetting, Meitalia seemed over the top with the way she sobbed at screamed at James.

This may remind fans of Jasmine, who is also known for her constant crying and drama. Jasmine immediately showed this side of herself to viewers when she first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days. After learning that Gino’s ex-wife had picked out the paint colors in his home, Jasmine lost it. Many viewers felt that Jasmine was overreacting after she broke down sobbing. Since then, Jasmine’s segments have been filled with many more tears.

After a while, Jasmine’s crying got old and at this point, it’s just frustrating to watch. The Other Way Season 6 trailer teases Meitalia breaking down once more, this time to her parents. As Meitalia cries about being a burden, her father asks her to kiss her mother’s feet for forgiveness. This looks like another dramatic scene for Meitalia, who seems to be following in Jasmine’s emotional footsteps.

James and Gino are both scared of their wives

While Meitalia’s personality strongly resembles Jasmine’s, James is quite similar to Gino as well. From the second they were introduced, it was clear that James was terrified of Meitalia. When James joked about what Meitalia would do to him if he ever cheated, he started to chuckle nervously. After the producer asked why he was laughing, James joked that it was because Meitalia was just “so scary”.

If this sounds familiar, it might be because Gino has had an almost identical experience. Gino has a more timid personality, which is often overpowered by Jasmine’s louder persona. During their time on the show, it’s become pretty obvious that Jasmine makes Gino nervous. When Jasmine gets mad and yells at Gino, the fear radiates on his face. It will be interesting to see if Meitalia will have the same effect on James as the season continues.

Meitalia and Jasmine both had a hard time adjusting in the US

Another striking similarity between Meitalia and Jasmine is their dislike of life in America. Meitalia explained that it was too difficult for her to adjust to the cold weather in Maine. The cold made her miss the warm temperatures of Indonesia and made her incredibly homesick. Furthermore, Meitalia had a negative experience with doctors in the US, which gave her another reason to return to Indonesia.

By the same token, Jasmine also complained about the cold when she arrived in Michigan. It was evident that Jasmine only came to America since it was Gino’s wish, as she seemed happier in Panama. While Jasmine is still in the US, it appears that the move ultimately tore her and Gino apart. Will Meitalia’s wish to return to Indonesia cause a rift between her and James? Or will the new couple find happiness abroad?

The Real Housewives: 100 Best Moments Ever (80-71)

Photo Credit: Heidi Gutman/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images

Season 18 of Real Housewives of Orange County is the 100^th season of Real Housewives. So, Reality Tea is taking a trip down memory lane to celebrate and honor this fabulous occasion.

We are looking back at the funniest, most cringe-worthy, and dramatic moments across all franchises. Check out our selections for #80-71 in our countdown of the 100 best Real Housewives moments.

80. Dorinda Medley is feeling Jovani! (RHONY)

Dorinda Medley was upset when her Real Housewives of New York co-star, Luann de Lesseps, neglected to invite her boyfriend, John Mahdessian, to her cabaret show. Luann claimed to have forgotten and told Dorinda that she could purchase a ticket. Excuse me?

This came after Dorinda was able to set Luann up with several Jovani gowns for free. So, an alcohol-enhanced Dorinda came to Luann’s show, Countess and Friends, and heckled her by screaming “Jovani!” repeatedly. And I kind of loved it. Dorinda is usually at her best when she is fired up.

79. Mary Cosby claimed that Jen Shah “smelled like hospital” (RHOSLC)

During the debut season of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, we were introduced to Mary Cosby and her over-the-top frenemy Jen Shah. While Jen was hosting a birthday party for Meredith Marks, someone asked Mary about dissing Jen’s aroma. She responded, “I didn’t say she. I said, ‘It smells like hospital in here.’” But in her confessional, Mary admitted, “I’m sorry, but Jen and her entire crew smell like hospital.”

Mary explained that a long hospital stay rendered able to detect this enticing aroma. But Jen was having none of it. Jen exclaimed, “My aunt got double amputated and you said, ‘You smell like hospital!’” These ladies fight over the strangest issues.

78. Taylor Armstrong freaks out at Camille Grammer (RHOBH)

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newbie Brandi Glanville hosted a wine tasting in a beautiful Malibu beach house. It was the first time that Taylor Armstrong saw Camille Grammer since Camille revealed on camera that Taylor’s husband, Russell Armstrong, abused her.

The scene quickly became chaotic, with all the ladies trying to calm an inebriated Taylor. When Camille’s friend called out Taylor for ignoring Camille’s apologies, Taylor broke down.

“I have been her friend. I have never hurt her!” Taylor screamed as the Beverly Hills ladies held her back. “She has hurt me so much! You have no idea what she has done to me!” This dramatic moment of Taylor shouting and pointing became an infamous cat meme during the pandemic. What a world we live in with the Real Housewives.

77. Bolo the stripper drives the ladies crazy (RHOA)

Kandi Burruss hosted the ultimate bachelorette party for Cynthia Bailey during Season 13 of Real Housewives of Atlanta. The ladies strutted their stuff in sexy lingerie, and then stripper Bolo and “his thang” made their debut.

“How many arms do you have?” Porsha Williams asked as Bolo was gyrating on the floor. In a hilarious moment, Cynthia made it sprinkle when she pulled out some single bills for Bolo. Lordy!

After the performance, the Atlanta ladies shut off the cameras, except for some audio. Bolo stayed for a private dance for some of the tipsy peaches, before allegedly sleeping with at least one of the cast members.

76. Frankie and Peter Rosello rap for their mom, Alexia Nepola (RHOM)

Real Housewives of Miami star Alexia Nepola was in for a shock when her sons, Peter Rosello and Frankie Rosello, played a rap for her that Frankie had recorded. Sadly, Frankie suffered a traumatic brain injury in a terrible car crash. And music was one of the ways that he connected with his brother, Peter.

Alexia was getting her groove on when she finally caught some of the lyrics. Something about being high and “hopping on that hoochie.” Oof. “Oh my God, Frankie, those lyrics,” Alexia said in her confessional. “My face says it all.”

75. Dorinda Medley confronts Candace Bushnell, uses now iconic line (RHONY)

@peacock

Taking the high road is overrated. @Bravo’s #RHONY is streaming now on Peacock. #DorindaMedley #BravoTV #Housewives

♬ Peacock_RHONY_NotWell – Peacock

When Ramona Singer hosted a dinner party, I’m sure she never expected Hurricane Dorinda. After insulting her RHONY co-star, Sonja Morgan, Dorinda confronted the author of Sex and the City, Candace Bushnell. What would Carrie Bradshaw do? Run!

“Here’s the thing, Candace. Do what you got to do, but don’t come here and extend a hand to me. ‘Hi Dorinda! How are you doing?’” Dorinda said. “You know, f*ck you. I’ll tell you how I’m doing. Not well, b*tch.”

74. Candiace Dillard Bassett throws Ashley Darby out, but offered a beverage first (RHOP)

@hayusocial

I gave her a beverage. #RHOP #RealityTV #Hayu

♬ original sound – Hayu – Hayu

Real Housewives of Potomac alum Candiace Dillard Bassett hosted the ladies at a dinner party at her home. But when things turned heated with Ashley Darby, Candiace’s husband Chris Bassett had to step out of the kitchen and hold his wife back. Ashley told Candiace, “I’m in your Mama’s house right now.” An innocent butter knife was flung at Ashley as Candiace screamed, “You will not talk about my mother!”

After ordering Ashley to leave, Candiace spoke to her guests. “Try me in that kangaroo restaurant,” she said, referencing Ashley and her husband Michael Darby’s Australian eatery. “Don’t try me in my house. I invited her into my home. I gave her a beverage,” Candiace added. That was Real Housewives hospitality at its finest.

73. Lisa Vanderpump gives Adrienne Maloof some cooking pointers (RHOBH)

Lisa Vanderpump decided to teach her pal Adrienne Maloof how to roast a chicken. Adrienne, already gloved up, was horrified when Lisa instructed her to “reach inside his bottom.” After removing the necessary parts, Lisa instructed Adrienne to wash her chicken.

So, Adrienne lathered him up with some soap and water. When Lisa asked if she just used soap, Adrienne replied, “Of course. I want to wash it.” Lisa was dumbfounded as Adrienne went on to explain the dangers of contracting salmonella. That was one squeaky-clean bird.

72. The drama over Beyoncé’s VVIP section (RHODubai)

@bravotv

A concert that will go down in #RHODubai history ? #RealHousewivesOfDubai #Beyonce

♬ Beyoncé Sections from RHODubai – Bravo

Real Housewives of Dubai ladies had a great time at Beyoncé’s concert. But only Chanel Ayan and Lesa Milan were in the VVIP section along with Beyoncé’s mother and Kendall Jenner.

But according to Caroline Brooks, she was so close to the superstar in the VIP section that she could smell Beyoncé’s conditioner. Then Caroline Stanbury shared how close she was to the singer. “I got wet from Beyonce,” Stanbury remarked, claiming that sweat from the dancing performer landed on her. And she shaded the VVIP for being “another block away.”

71. Luann de Lesseps slams Alex McCord’s fashion choice (RHONY)

During Season 4 of RHONY, Luann and Alex McCord met up for a coffee date. And the countess was shocked that Alex would have any issues with her from the group’s trip to Morocco.

“I was sitting there having a lovely moment with the ladies, and you came in in your Herman Munster shoes,” Luann said. “Um, they’re Louis Vuitton shoes, you know?” Alex replied.

“Well, you know, even Louis Vuitton makes mistakes,” Luann quipped. Another iconic moment from the cabaret star. Then Alex called her “rude.” In the end, I guess money didn’t buy the countess class – at least in Alex’s opinion.

Stay tuned for our next drop, where we will cover moments 70 to 61.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 18 Episode 2 Recap: The Ladies’ Reputations Are at Stake

Photo Credit: Nicole Weingart/Bravo

If you thought the premiere of Real Housewives of Orange County last week was epic, wait until you dive into Episode 2. This time, our favorite housewives are back in an episode entitled “Rent and Reputations.” Cue Taylor Swift’s “Ready for It,” obviously, we are unprepared! Tamra and Shannon finally come face-to-face in a pretty heated war of words. Jesus Jugs, Alexis finally gets to show off her promise ring from Johnny J, which is by no means an engagement ring, even though I secretly think she wanted it to be. We finally see Jen on the screen as she hosts her parents and helps her kids adjust to their new home, aka Ryan’s home because she was evicted. 

The Real Housewives of Orange County party drama continues

After what can only be considered the best fourth wall break to date, Shannon is left to sip her cocktail as Alexis storms back inside in a literal huff. Heather, the hostess with the mostess, is dead set on not having drama at her event. She tries to calm Alexis down and directs her to the craft table in the corner. Shannon seems relatively calm, but 30 seconds in, viewers have already learned that she and Tamra are not okay. I dare say that they aren’t on the best of terms. In a quick juxtaposition, producers cut to Tammy Sue, revealing that she felt bad for Shannon, who had to come face to face with John’s new girlfriend. 

Texts flashed onto the screen, showing Tamra reaching out to her former friend after pictures of Alexis and John had been released. Tamra sent a nice text noting, “I know things aren’t good between us. But I wanted you to know that I’m thinking about you. I know how hurtful this must be for you, and I’m sorry.” Yet, all Shannon could slap together was a generic response that ended with “Happy Holidays.” I’m pretty sure Shannon did not want Tamra to have a happy holiday season. 

Cameras spun back to Shannon in her confessional, sharing that she was annoyed that Tamra liked the photos of John and Alexis. But what got her goat was that the former CUT Fitness owner added applause emojis to the comment. Not the dreaded applause emojis! In response, Shannon texted, “WTF? What are you doing? “You would never see me post applause emojis.” According to the text, Tamra’s response back was to “Grow the f*ck up.”

The ring didn’t mean a thing

At every one of Heather’s parties, there is always a game to play. This kitsch fanfare paid homage to the money booth, but instead of Benjamins flying all around, it was pre-written questions. Heather was asked what her favorite piece of jewelry was and why. To which she answered her original engagement ring. Cute right? Cameras then focused on Alexis’ rather large promise ring. The band sat comfortably on her ring finger, but she insisted it was not an engagement ring. Instead, it was a “Sign of love.”

Emily began to poke at the hashtag she used with the word “promised,” asking what we all wanted to know. But Alexis was quick to steer the word’s definition toward a religious connotation, noting it could mean “Promised in the eyes of the Lord.” The new girl, Katie, almost choked on her amuse-bouche, asking if she was really that religious. Oh, you have no idea, Katie. “There’s no difference between a promise ring and a promised ring. It’s just a D. I guess that’s what she’s getting.” I am going to like her.

Understandably, Shannon excuses herself from the table, and to her surprise, Tamra follows her. But instead of finding comfort, Shannon and Tamra start hurling insults at one another. Tammy Sue is tired of Shannon talking behind her back, especially regarding her “big ego.” But the Real for Real founder denies she has said such things. Shannon tried to extend an olive branch, but Tamra shut her down in the hotel hallway, saying, “No. You’re not a good person. You’ve done horrible things to me.” 

Don’t come for Gina’s livelihood

Photo Credit: Nicole Weingart/Bravo

Gina is new to real estate. But she did Jen a solid when she vouched for her, claiming the mother of five didn’t need a credit check. Umm, the yogi definitely should have had a credit check since she is now being evicted. Naturally, Gina feels dumb and used. Not a great combination. However, fans are starting to get a glimpse of who the real Ryan is.

While explaining her current living situation to Katie and Shannon, Jen noted, “I feel like he just sits around and plays in the sunshine.” As most viewers know, Ryan was recently linked to the MLB $16 million gambling and theft scheme. So basically, everything between Ryan and Jen feels fishy. 

In a Road House/Coffee House meet-up, Gina literally could not hide her Long Island attitude. Jen wasn’t willing to see how her inability to pay rent hurt Gina. And that was a problem. Directly before throwing her buttery croissant and walking out, Gina snapped, shrieking, “You need to grow up. You need to figure out how to take care of yourself and your children. It’s not your ex-husband’s responsibility. And it’s not your boyfriend’s responsibility.”

If Gina didn’t know Jen was dumb before, she does now after she responded with, “Just cause my life is falling apart doesn’t mean my hair needs to fall apart like yours did.” And there you have it—the logic of a 16-year-old 46-year-old. 

 Real Housewives of Orange County continues on Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.

The countdown is on for the Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 finale. Honestly, the countdown has been on since the premiere, but we’re getting close to seeing the heavily teased “Last Supper.” Allegedly, it was so explosive that it caused the reunion to get canceled. Danielle Cabral was right in the center of the chaos, and she just teased that the final sitdown with the full cast was just as dramatic as the rumors suggest.

A RHONJ Season 14 preview teased a chaotic showdown between the warring factions of women. Of course, like all good things on this show, it all went down at Rails Steakhouse. The clip showed Dolores Catania sitting at a destroyed dinner table looking beyond frustrated.

Ever since we got a taste of the Season 14 finale, we’ve been following all of the reports about what allegedly went down. Some rumors suggested that Danielle and Jennifer Aydin got into another physical confrontation, with drinkware flying, once again. In an interview with E! News, Danielle confirmed that most of the rumors were true.

“I couldn’t tell you what you’re going to see, but I lived it, and it was quite a show,” Danielle teased. “Quite an episode, I’ll say that much. Everything you’re hearing is a pretty good depiction of what takes place.”

In addition to the showdown between Danielle and Jennifer, there’s also apparently a spat between Teresa Giudice and Margaret Josephs. We’ll have to tune into the finale to see exactly how it unfolds, but Margaret has predicted that she’ll be “vindicated” once fans see the episode. Time will tell.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 continues on Bravo, Sunday nights at 8/7c.

Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 7 Recap: Beggars and Badass B*tches

Welcome back to our Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 7 recap, where the shiteth hath finally hitteth the desert. In this week’s episode, “The Beauty and the Beggar,” Ayan Beauty launches forward, as does Taleen and Brooks’ friendship … for a few minutes. Meanwhile, Lesa’s work-life balance is out of whack, as Stanbury’s housewarming party also hits complicated waters. Check out everything that transpired in the sands of RHODubai Season 2, Episode 7.

Ayan is 100% a badass b*tch

“It’s Ayan’s world. We’re all just living in it,” Chanel explains. Her Ayan Beauty line launch is here, and as she knows, “100%, I’m a badass b*tch.” Next to her is her sister, wearing Chanel’s lashes from her line.

These stunning siblings then reminisce on their childhood, thankful to be in such unbelievable places as adults. But then, her models start arriving. They will all be sporting makeup and beauty products from her line.

Chanel’s brother Sadiq arrives, and she shows him her invite, where the image makes her look naked. Everyone laughs. Her son Taj enters next. He’s a model, and he’ll be walking in her show.

Chanel’s on a high. Her siblings are here, her son is blossoming, and she’s wearing an intricate gown made by Michael Cinco. As Chanel notes, “It’s my interest to show these b*tches none of you could ever.” Okay, we get it.

Stanbury and Taleen arrive, eager to support Chanel. However, Chanel is now sitting in a hallway, in sweats, eating snacks, coming undone by her encroaching anxiety.

We can all relate.

Saba and Sara arrive next, bothering Stanbury. She doesn’t like that Sara’s taking up for Brooks. A flashback to Stanbury’s desert lunch airs, showing Sara and Stanbury’s last fight.

As for Chanel, her show starts and her models slay, but Taleen turns towards the shade. “I don’t see any makeup products,” she notes. Producers then highlight Chanel’s line, proving Taleen wrong. They and Stanbury get it, as Stanbury jokes “Leave it to Ayan to make a makeup launch a fashion show.”

Lesa arrives late. Brooks arrives even later with a friend. Stanbury’s annoyed, noting that Brooks no longer has Taleen, so she has to call in “rent-a-friend,” and that “Brooks cannot watch other people succeed,” hence her tardiness.

As Chanel celebrates her successful launch, her costars all sit together outside. Trying to start a conversation, Saba inquires about Stanbury’s new home. This results in 0.26 seconds of speaking. Therefore, Raf leans over Taleen, trying to talk to Brooks.

Brooks’ answers are short. “So awkward,” Taleen whispers to her husband. Raf agrees.

In her confessional, Taleen explains that “since the desert,” she’s “really been trying to make an effort to fix things with Brooks.” However, she’s only getting short, cold responses back.

Chanel finally approaches, thanking the group for their support with a side of shade. “If any of you are so late, I still forgive you guys,” Chanel stresses. Lesa and Brooks feel her blow immediately, talking over each other to explain. “You’re forgiven anyways,” Chanel laughs, not letting anyone damper her spirits.

Sara stands up to talk to Sergio. They feel awkward because Stanbury and Sara now stand divided, yet, Sara and Sergio are like siblings, so this sucks for them. Hopefully, Sara and Stanbury can fix this.

Speaking of fixing things, Brooks finally turns towards Taleen. “I want to talk to you about something,” Brooks begins, adding “I heard your voice notes. I acknowledge your feelings.” Taleen reciprocates, apologizing in turn. Meanwhile, their entire cast is listening in, clapping at this unexpected turn of events.

Chanel then introduces her brother and sister to her crew. “That’s Brooks. Stay away from her,” Chanel laughs. Stanbury only cares about one thing though; the age of Chanel’s older sister.

The launch of Ayan Beauty ends on a high.

Beggers and blessings

A few beats later, Brooks, Lesa, and Sara meet for lunch. Lesa is still slightly miffed with Sara, but they are choosing to restart their friendship. As for Stanbury and Sara’s relationship, Sara isn’t sure what’s happening, but Brooks is. “She’s [Stanbury] a little narcissistic” she explains.

We then learn that Stanbury invited everyone to her upcoming housewarming party. Brooks isn’t “100% certain that” she wants to go, but she will.

The conversation then turns towards Taleen and Brooks’ peace treaty. Brooks reveals that Taleen “begged” her “to be in” this “friendship group. Taleen begged me to be on television,” Brooks notes, as her friends take her words in.

Across the dunes, Chanel and her siblings enjoy a picnic. They are proud of Chanel, who has always worked to ensure her loved ones are okay. She is also giving back to her community. Chanel has “the power to give.”

That night, Lesa and Rich go on a date. Here, Lesa admits that she feels “super overwhelmed.” Her life is a lot right now, but she knows she is blessed. She only wants to be a “good Lesa for Lesa.” Rich praises her while offering her his support, like a legend, and she cries.

Hell unfreezes

Taleen brings up Brooks’ apology. But Lesa then tells her that Brooks called her a beggar. She then shares why. “I guess hell hasn’t frozen over,” Taleen says.

Stanbury is preparing for her housewarming party. Thankfully Yasmine, Stanbury’s daughter, has agreed to try again with Sergio. Sergio’s pumped, saying that he sees Yasmine as his daughter, but she isn’t, and he might need several seats.

Finally, their guests arrive. And everything spirals.

Brooks arrives, saging Stanbury’s home. Stanbury’s pissed. About the sage and the uninvited guest.

Once seated, Stanbury thanks her guests. Sergio stands, telling Stanbury to sit. Chanel jokes that Stanbury can stand because she paid for their house. Insert Brooks’, revealing in a confessional about a drunk Michael confessing that he pays for Stanbury’s bills. Chanel notes the same thing in her interview.

Bali comes up. Several of the ladies don’t want to pray. They want to party. Sara jokes that someone might need an exorcism.

Raf then jokes about how close Taleen and Stanbury are. Brooks whispers “fake, fake, fake.” Taleen calls her out. “I’m not talking to you,” Brooks answers.

UGH.

“Sergio, put music on,” Stanbury demands. Taleen follows Stanbury, still triggered about Brooks’ beggar comment. Everyone joins.

Brooks gets called out for labeling Taleen as a beggar. “You’re my girl, but correct yourself,” Raf interjects. “Shame on you,” Taleen adds, pointing at Brooks. In response, Brooks calls Taleen “two-faced”, as Raf leads Taleen away.

“Taleen, stop drinking. You’re slurring,” Brooks says, following. Raf stands up for his wife again, as Taleen asks “Are you challenging my husband?” Brooks answers “Is your husband challenging me?”

“He’s f*cking sticking up for me. Where’s your husband?” Taleen asks. “Don’t speak on women’s business” Brooks argues to Raf. “Watch your mouth,” Raf responds.

Sensing rising tensions, the cameras appear, breaking the fourth wall. Stanbury kicks everyone out, but Taleen and Brooks continue to fight in her driveway, as the credits roll on RHODubai Season 2, Episode 7.

Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2 continues every Tuesday on Bravo at 9/8c.

Bethenny Frankel Hit with Backlash After Hamptons Comments

Photo Credit: FOX via Getty Images

Be careful how you phrase your thoughts. This is a lesson learned the hard way by Bethenny Frankel (again) for saying that the Hamptons are filled with “not only rich people” but minorities, too. Yikes.

“There are all kinds of people here. There’s a big Latin community here. There is an African-American community here. Beautiful houses,” she continued on TikTok. Not surprisingly, people weren’t pleased with this statement. And many had something to say about it.

Rich doesn’t automatically equal white

News flash: White people are not the only ones capable of having money. There are rich Black people and rich “Latins”. https://t.co/lXYMrBmwzz

— Ana Navarro-Cárdenas (@ananavarro) July 11, 2024

Naturally, Bethenny’s clip went viral. The View co-host Ana Navarro replied to the clip of the former Real Housewives of New York star’s racially charged comments.

Ana shared the clip on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption, “News flash: White people are not the only ones capable of having money. There are rich Black and Rich Latins.” 

Many netizens also added their comments on the tweet, calling out Bethenny and her demographic analysis.

“I guess Asians and South Asians don’t get to be Hamptons rich,” one user commented. “Meanwhile, we are the highest earners in the country, but what do I know?”

Another replied, “…because ‘rich’ means ‘white’?”

And yet another user commented, “Black people have always lived in The Hamptons. And yes, some of them are wealthy. She needs to stop.”

“What happened to people, based on color or culture, just human beings!” another comment said. And finally, one user wrote, “Her saying she’s racist, without saying she’s racist.”

Not the first time

@bethennyfrankel

Sorry not sorry. What do you suggest i do? And yes i’m aware of shelters. Yes I can sell and donate to charity & also give as gifts. YES YES YES #donate #makeup #cheap #RHOUTLET

♬ original sound – Bethenny Frankel

Bethenny has yet to respond to the backlash, but it’s hardly the first time she’s been criticized for something she’s said.

Previously, Page Six wrote about how fans slammed Bethenny after she insinuated that a cashier at TJ Maxx couldn’t afford a $70 makeup palette after gifting her one. Many fans called her entitled and just rude.

But Bethenny’s not completely oblivious. She admitted in a follow-up TikTok video, “I think I’m being canceled!”

Well, at least there’s some self-awareness. But something tells me this isn’t going to be the last time Bethenny finds herself in this type of situation.

TELL US – DID YOU THINK BETHENNY IS WRONG? OR DO YOU THINK SHE WAS MISUNDERSTOOD?
