Britani Bateman’s daughter, Olivia Bateman, revealed their “major fight” at BravoCon after Britani secretly invited her on-off boyfriend, Jared Osmond. Olivia hinted that she’s willing to tell the “truth” about her and her mom’s relationship on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.
Last season, Britani shared on camera that her daughters weren’t speaking to her. In the new season, Olivia filmed to share her version of the story, saying that Britani seems to prioritize men over her daughters. But overall, the talk seemed productive. As of now, Britani and Jared are engaged.
On Positively Uncensored, Olivia shared where she stands with her mom today.
“We do have a relationship … It’s [just] an okay one,” said Olivia. “We have our fights. We had a major fight at BravoCon. Like, the whole hotel probably heard.”
She then shared what happened.
“It was supposed to be a girls’ trip. Like, I was so excited. We had planned it for months. And then her boyfriend came,” she explained. “So I was very upset. And it started out calm [as I said], ‘Mom, this was supposed to be a girls’ trip. My feelings are really hurt that you would invite your boyfriend to spend the weekend with us without consulting me. Like, at least just ask me. Like you know our history.’ And then it kind of blew up.”
“I’m fully willing to have those types of conversations on camera if my mom is,” she went on. “It’s the truth. It’s the truth of our relationship, and I’m fine with showing that.”
@positivelyuncensored I had not listened to Britani’s episode on Vile Files prior to recording with Olivia, but it was brought to my attention that Britani just recently said how nice it was to have both Jared & Olivia there which makes this even more interesting 😖 full episode out now! #rhoslc #realhousewivesofsaltlakecity #bravocon #bravotv
At one point, Olivia recalled that she begged her mom not to film RHOSLC.
“She asked kind of everybody in our entire family [if it was okay], and not a single person told her to do it, including myself,” said Olivia. “I didn’t know anything about the show, I hadn’t watched it. But I was so terrified of having our entire lives on display and having all of our skeletons in the closet come out, you know, ’cause people are gonna do their research and, you know, there’s court cases to be dug up, and I thought that I would have personal ones be brought up that I wasn’t ready to talk about, and I still don’t feel ready to talk about.”
“So I was so petrified that I basically begged my mom not to do it, and so did my sister,” she said. “But ultimately, I’m glad that she did it. I think that — I don’t know — it feels really nice to be an open book. There’s something really freeing about everybody knowing everything and not having to hide things that are happening. ‘Cause I think that that’s kind of how I grew up. Like, my mom wanted us to be the perfect family, and so a lot of things that were going on were very hush-hush or swept under the rug.”
