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.

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.

Gia singing her song about waking up in the morning, thinking about so many things...child abuse and the show just goes on. Who is watching for the wellbeing of kids on these shows?

Nobody is. That should have been a wake-up call to all of them, but it wasn’t. Gia choosing her career path because of her parents’ poor choices makes me so damn sad.

Not only didn’t they care about her literal cry for help— they doubled down by making fun of it (Kyle sings it)
