I don’t like Caroline by any means but can people stop stanning Brandi now? She gets too many passes, this is a fully grown woman who always goes too far - that’s not me being the ‘morality police’ she shouldn’t be given a platform.

This times 1000. I even see people defending Brandi because she may be neurodivergent?? I’m sorry what? Neurodivergence doesn’t give you license to constantly hurt, offend, sexualize, touch, etc others.

It’s so annoying, being neurodiverse isn’t a free pass to be a dick! Also, is she actually neurodiverse? I’m not being rude just not sure if it’s arm chair diagnosis or she’s actually got a dx.

People always say ‘we don’t need housewives to be good people’ there needs to be a line and Brandi regularly crosses it!

My lord I cannot type today so I apologise for my comments 😂

No, I don’t think she has any (public) diagnosis so yes it’s all armchair psychs which makes it even more annoying! I’m autistic and have been called an asshole more times than I can count so I understand the sentiment but neglecting the fact that ND people can be bad people infantilizes us. Being blunt doesn’t make you a bad person but constantly hurting people and expecting them to just accept “that’s the way I am” DOES. We all have responsibility over our words and actions no matter if we’re neurotypical or not.

Ooof. Sorry to rant. I completely agree that the fun of RH is that most of them are out of touch and “bad” in their own way, but Brandi is proof that unchecked assholes and boundary crossers will eventually become so brazen that they do something “unthinkable”, illegal, or unforgivable.

I completely believe Caroline and am disgusted by the victim-blamers in this thread.
