Braunwyn Windham-Burke joined the 'Real Housewives of Orange County' ensemble with a bang. She left everybody intrigued by her bold choices and undying loyalty towards her friends, especially Kelly Dodd. While the other housewives were talking smack behind Kelly's back, Braunwyn was brave enough to reveal everything to Kelly and firmly stand by her side. Watching Kelly and Braunwyn's friendship grow on the show was beautiful. With two of the three"Tres Amigas" (Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge) gone, we assumed that Braunwyn and Kelly would be in a much better place.

But that might not be the case. According to reports, things aren't going great between Braunwyn and Kelly. The two housewives have reportedly unfollowed each other on Instagram. Emily Simpson too followed Kelly's footsteps and unfollowed Braunwyn, which led to everybody speculating on what's going on between the Orange County ladies. While we do not know what exactly may have caused friction between the ladies, Bravo, however, did drop some hints in Braunwyn's bio

In her bio, Bravo mentions that Braunwyn struggles to see "eye-to-eye" with her fellow housewives over her participation in protests and her political views. Braunwyn has been very vocal and active in promoting the cause of the Black Lives Matter movement. She has participated in several protests and even appeared on Bravo's roundtable talk 'Race in America'. During the discussion, Braunwyn revealed that she lost three of her friends due to her participation in BLM movement. Since then fans have been wondering if she was referring to Kelly and Emily as the friends she lost due to her political views.

Kelly, who is engaged to FOX News presenter Rick Leventhal, has in the past posted pictures of herself with members of the Trump family at parties. While Emily is known for being pro-Trump and has even revealed that she voted for Trump in the previous presidential elections. So, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that Braunwyn might have gotten into a fight with Kelly and Emily over their political beliefs. 

Aside from Kelly and Emily, Braunwyn's feud with Gina Kirschenheiter will continue onto Season 15. Gina has hated Braunwyn from the get-go and has always been mean to her. In the trailer for the upcoming season, we see Brauwyn and Gina in a physical altercation and later, Brauwyn storming out of a party, after breaking a glass angrily. Brauwnyn could also be seen crying to her husband about how her fellow housewives are "horrible" and "lie to each other" all the time. We can't wait to see how Brauwnyn handles the situation with her fellow housewives on the upcoming season.

'Real Housewives of Orange County' Season 15 premiers on Wednesday, October 14, at 10/9c only on Bravo.
