Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Amanda Frances hinted she’s not returning to the show for another season and took a dig at co-star Bozoma Saint John in recent posts on social media.
While Amanda has been a controversial newcomer, with many fans being vocal about their disdain for her and some of her castmates definitely giving her a run for her money, she’s shown a pretty thick skin throughout all of the noise.
A fan posted to Threads that it was maybe an “unpopular opinion,” but they “100%” thought Amanda deserved a second season on the hit franchise.
“WHY WOULD I WANT TO DO THAT AGAIN?” Amanda shockingly responded, seemingly alluding she would not be returning to the show.
Another fan also wrote about Boz on Threads, sharing, “I’ve known of Boz for a while, and first came across her on a podcast on manifestation. Hearing her story, before RHOBH fame, was inspiring. Self-worth with open every damn door. Big loves for Boz – she really is a powerful person.”
Amanda took the fan gushing over Boz as an opportunity to get a dig in, as she replied, “I’m sorry on… what? Did you say manifestation…?”
The response Amanda gave about Boz is somewhat unsurprising, as Boz was extremely critical of Amanda and her manifestation-based business on RHOBH, referring to it as a “scam” and “manipulation.” Boz also accused Amanda of having a cult-like following of her “Rich as F*ck” brand and claimed she sold “empty promises” to people.
Boz isn’t the only one who has come for Amanda’s business, though, as some ex-customers recently spoke out against her.
“When you’re vulnerable, you find things you wouldn’t ever normally look at and think, Maybe this will help,” a woman named Jenna said of the courses Amanda sells. “I just kind of followed her. I was like, I just won’t think about money, I’ll spend and spend and spend.”
Jenna, who ended up spending $2,000 on Amanda’s courses and found herself $10,000 in debt, claimed she “funded” Amanda’s “lifestyle for no reason.”
Jessica, a 45-year-old California nurse, had similar complaints.
“I was like, I can take this course and make a sh*t-ton of money, and achieve more of my vision-board goals, like living in a bigger house or on the beach,” she shared.
She ended up spending six figures on Amanda’s courses and noted she felt like she’d entered a “black hole.”
Amanda, for her part, claims 95% of her customers are satisfied with their purchase.
“It’s really hard to run a business if you believe you’re taking people’s money,” Amanda told The Cut on April 30. “I believe that there’s a value exchange. People who value my work pay for it again and again and again. And if they didn’t like it, we wouldn’t have repeat buyers.”
She also claimed her customers shouldn’t be using the courses she offers as an “excuse” to accrue debt.
“I can’t stop them, but that’s never been my advice,” she added.
