If you watched the ongoing Season 5 of 'Real Housewives of Dallas' you might have heard Kary Brittingham being very shady towards her fellow housewife D'Andra Simmons. While both the ladies were joined at the hip in the previous season, thanks to their common despise towards their then enemy, LeeAnne Locken, it looks like their friendship is in trouble this season. 

In an earlier episode, while the ladies were attending a dim sum party hosted by new housewife Tiffany Moon, Kary seized every possible opportunity to throw shade at D'Andra. From roasting D'Andra for being a hypochondriac for having a Covid-19 scare to refusing to hug her or sit near her, because she might have Covid, Kary did it all. The other housewives noticed the tension between these two ladies, but chose to stay away from it, Stephanie Hollman compared the relationship between the two former friends to that of an old, grumpy, married couple and found their dynamic hilarious.

'Real Housewives of Dallas': Do D'Andra Simmons, Kary Brittingham really regret bullying LeeAnne Locken?

In case you're wondering what made these two former friends fight with each other, then we got you covered. In the same episode, Kary could be heard complaining to her current close friend Kameron Westcott about D'Andra. Kary labeled D'Andra as a very "selfish" person who only thought about herself and didn't care for anybody else. Later, in her confessional, Kary explained how D'Andra called her regularly only to talk about herself and not once did she ask Kary about her or her health. This combined with D'Andra's behavior during their trunk shows left Kary fuming at her former friend. Kary explained how D'Andra used to take up all the space in the car for herself and her products and leave little to no space for Kary. She also was reportedly extremely messy and difficult to share a room with while they were on the road.

While Kary seems to be upset with D'Andra's selfish behavior, the Hard Night Good Morning founder pointed out how she began seeing Kary's true colors of late. D'Andra explained how Kary loved to poke and prod people until she got a reaction out of them and always instigated fights. But the housewife declared that she wasn't going to give Kary what she wanted. D'Andra revealed that whenever Kary tried to provoke her, she focussed her energy on calming herself and distracting herself. 

Clearly spending too much time together has created friction in their friendship. But the question remains will Kary and D'Andra be able to rekindle their friendship, or will it fade away in the absence of a common enemy? Hopefully, both the ladies can work things out and figure out a way to be friends with each other without getting into a huge fight or ending up as bitter enemies. Considering, D'Andra is working on her inner-self and controlling her emotions, hopefully, she might be able to resolve things between them and be friends again. We will just have to watch the show to see how things pan out between the duo. 

'Real Housewives of Dallas' Season 5 airs every Tuesday at 9/8c only on Bravo.
