Emily Simpson and the Real Housewives of Orange County cast are currently estranged from their co-star, Braunwyn Windham-Burke, who was seen confirming she’s an alcoholic on the premiere episode of season 15 earlier this week.
Before sharing husband Shane Simpson‘s reaction to her weight loss, Emily confirmed she and her castmates unfollowed the mother of seven before explaining her decision to do so and revealing she is prepared to bring a binder of evidence against Braunwyn to the series’ upcoming reunion.
“She’s not talking to any of us because we all unfollowed her,” Emily told Entertainment Tonight during an interview earlier this week. “Each one of us kind of unfollowed her for different reasons.”
According to Emily, she unfollowed Braunwyn after the RHOC finale party.
“It was the last time that we were allowed, all six of us, to be together and I just I didn’t particularly like the way she acted and the way things went down,” she shared. “I didn’t block her or anything. I just unfollowed and, you know, there’s a lot of things that need to be resolved with her.”
While Braunwyn recently said that she’s holding her tongue when it comes to her co-stars because she’s waiting to discuss their issues at the reunion, Emily suggested that she is more than prepared for their potential confrontation.
“I’ve got materials. You name it, I’ve got it,” she said. “I’m an attorney, so I analyze things and I like facts. I don’t think anybody should jump on someone else out of emotions or anything like that. So, I do have a very factual, analytical argument as to things that she’s done that I find completely inauthentic and, you know, I’m ready and willing to address those.”
During a separate interview, Emily said that while her body has changed over the past year, her husband hasn’t changed the way he treats her.
“It didn’t matter if I was 20 pounds heavier or 20 pounds lighter. He’s still very … he grabs my butt all the time and he smacks me on the ass all of the time and he constantly talks about sex all of the time, so I don’t think 20 pounds or 30 pounds makes any difference to him at all,” she told Hollywood Life, adding, “He loves the curves no matter what.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 15 airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
