Braunwyn Windham-Burke Addresses Those Texts to Gretchen Rossi and Lizzie Rovsek
"I’m starting to learn who I can and can’t trust in the group," the RHOC newbie said.
Braunwyn Windham-Burke may be new to The Real Housewives of Orange County, but she's learning really quickly that the truth always comes out in the OC.
The SoCal drama continued in Tuesday night's episode of RHOC when Tamra Judge confronted Braunwyn about her contact with Gretchen Rossi and Lizzie Rovsek. At first, Braunwyn said that Gretchen and Lizzie, with whom Tamra is not on good terms, reached out to her. But then, Braunwyn got caught in a little bit of a lie when text messages revealed that she had actually contacted the RHOC alums first, causing Tamra and Shannon Storms Beador to question her honesty. See more from the episode in the above clip.
Braunwyn told The Daily Dish in advance of Tuesday night's episode airing that it "was definitely a hard one for me to watch." "Being called out as a liar was tough on me," the mom of seven said. "As much as I regret having coffee one time with a former Housewife when I was first cast on the show and not being forthcoming about it, I don’t regret what came from it. I learned a lot about myself and was able to connect with Tamra and Shannon on a much deeper level, and I’m starting to learn who I can and can’t trust in the group."
She added, "There’s more backstory to this, but I never want to be a person that shows private text messages to people. I think it’s a breach of trust and tacky."
Luckily, all of this turned out to be just a little speed bump in Braunwyn's fast friendship with Tamra and Shannon. The three of them had a big heart-to-heart after taking a hip-hop class together, and they all resolved to move on from this moment.
