ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: Divorce is hardly ever easy, and Braunwyn Windham-Burke is here to tell her fans and followers precisely that. The reality star recently posted a new video on her Instagram profile where she highlighted just how difficult it is, especially around the holidays.

Braunwyn posted a video where the ‘RHOC’ alum is ranting about how “hard” Christmas has been for her after her separation from ex-husband Sean Burke. She started her message by saying, “So the presents are wrapped, the stockings are done, everything is ready for dinner for tonight.” She continued to add, “In the next 24 hours, I will be hosting so many happy family moments.” But soon, the reality star changed her tone and added, “I wanna be honest with everyone else out there because I know when I look at things sometimes, I’m like, is this hard for anyone else, and I’m not gonna lie this has been a hard Christmas.”

She continued to add that the first holiday season taking care of her children as a “single mom” has been a difficult journey for the star. She said, “The first Christmas as a single mom has been hard. Being sober is hard. All of this has been hard.” In what seemed like a jab at her ex-husband, Braunwyn also said that co-parenting in a “toxic” environment is not easy. She noted, “Co-parenting in a very controlling, toxic environment is hard.” The reality star also praised her new girlfriend, Jennifer Spinner, and added, “I’m very lucky, Jen’s (Jennifer Spinner) been amazing, my family has been amazing.”

Noting that she’s doing everything for her children and not for social media, the star stated, “I’m doing this all for my kids. I’m not doing this for Instagram. I am doing everything I can as a mom so that they will have a wonderful day when they look back on this.” She ended her rant by motivating single mothers and saying, “But to any mom out there, single mom, you’re not alone. This is hard, and it’s OK.”



 

Braunwyn’s message raised a few eyebrows as netizens commented on her post telling the star not to publicly shame Sean, especially in an Instagram post while calling co-parenting with him “toxic” and “controlling.” A social media user commented on her video writing, “Im sorry but you put this man on TV and embarrassed him. It takes two. I’m sure coparenting with you isn’t the easiest for him either. But people out there have it worse. Sounds to me like this is for instagram.”

Another slammed the reality star by penning, “Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s toxic.” A netizen even called her out and wrote, “Divorce is hard and I feel for you, but publicly calling out your ex for being controlling and toxic only hurts your kids. Wish you the best in 2023.” One advised the former Real Housewife to remove the word “hard” from her vocabulary and said, “My advise to you for now and take into your future- knock out the word hard! replace it with a positive word.”
