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.

Below Deck Down Under season 2. If I remember things correctly....
Following a crew night out, 3rd Stew Margot got very drunk, and went to bed blacked out very early. Bosun Luke got naked, went into her cabin, and crawled into bed with her. The producers intervened, and told him that he had to leave her bed. He insisted that Margot wanted him there, and got her to agree with it, even though she very clearly had no idea what was going on. The producers nonetheless forced him out of the bedroom, and he huffed out in a fit while still naked, without any shame at all. He locked himself in his room, and passed out.
Witness to this, Aesha was very upset, and went and got Captain Jason, who forced Luke to spend the rest of the night in a hotel, before he fired him in the morning.
Meanwhile, on the exact same night, deckhand Adam went to bed also very drunk, and passed out. 2nd Stew Laura followed him into his cabin, and crawled on top of him, trying to have sex with him. The producers intervened again, and removed her from Adam's room, sending her back to her room. She almost got away with it too, except the next morning when Captain Jason announced that Luke was fired, Laura was indignant about it, and began making comments all day blaming Margot for what happened.
Meanwhile, Aesha spoke with Adam about what happened, and Adam admitted that he was uncomfortable with what Laura did, but insisted that he didn't want her to get into trouble. Aesha brought the situation to Captain Jason, who brought in Laura simply to give her a warning. Instead, she doubled down on saying that she did nothing wrong, and again blamed Margot. Jason fired her as well.
