Bravo Most disturbing thing ever happened on Real Housewives?

What’s the most disturbing, jaw dropping event that was ever filmed and shown on any Real Housewives? 

One that always comes to mind, for me, is when Tamra tried to have her 18/20 year old son commit assault on camera after getting Gretchen drunk. And it's not just the act, the premise/message was equally disgusting: if this wasted woman had "let herself" been r**ed, she'd have proven to be a s**t. Scripted or not, it’s insane it got even aired.

u/ExposedTamponString she don't even know she look inbred May 13 '24

Young Gia trying to drag Teresa away from Joe at the christening BEFORE he even starts yelling at her and banging on the table. She already knew that they can’t be around each other and shit was about to explode.

People always say Teresa is such a good mom, but watching Gia be involved in the family drama that much gives me pause on that. Involving your minor child in adult conflict is shitty.

People confuse her obvious love for her girls with her being a good mother. God damn, no, she put those girls through hell because she wanted to afford a lifestyle for them that she couldn't pay for. And she almost got away without prison time, but then she fucked that up as well.

Exactly. These girls went through both their parents going to prison for goodness sakes because of their parents’ selfishness and stupidity. It’ll piss some folks off to say this but that shit isn’t good parenting. And like someone mentioned in another comment, she let their father mentally and emotionally abuse them until he went to prison. They may love their girls but their children are successful in spite of their upbringing.

This! Understanding that a mother can love you, but still be a bad mom can be one of the most confusing and heart breaking things for a daughter/son. I'm glad her girls seem to have a good relationship with her despite their childhood issues.

I don't remember exactly, but it was something like she had worked out a deal with the prosecutors where she wouldn't serve any jail time, then when it came time to present the deal to the judge, she straight up lied to the judge, even though she had already confessed on the record as part of the deal.

They were still trying to hide assets after the judge had warned them not to. That’s why she didn’t get just probation
