'RHOD': Why did Travis Hollman belittle wife Stephanie? Internet dubs him 'complete a**hole' and 'rotting garbage'

Fans also pointed out how Travis' Trump-supporting side was on full display in the latest episode

Stephanie Hollman is a fan-favorite housewife on 'Real Housewives of Dallas', so when anyone talks down to her or treats her with disrespect, rest assured that fans will come for them. Stephanie's husband Travis Hollman is no exception either. In the latest episode, Travis and Stephanie were seen discussing money, and he ended up talking down to her.

The housewife was discussing her latest project through their charity organization, The Hollman Family Foundation, of providing lockers to schools in need. Travis started off by complimenting the housewife for her vision and guidance but pointed out that his workers had to do all the work, while Stephanie was giving away the lockers for free. He then made a snide remark about needing to make that money back, and calling her "expensive".

Stephanie called out Travis by explaining how he was being rude to her. She then questions him if he doesn't see any value to the things she brings to the table for their family and him. He reluctantly agrees with her and reassures her that he will completely support her in whatever she decides to do. But Stephanie was still irked by her husband's earlier statements and explained to him how he himself encouraged her to be a stay at home mom and take care of him and his family, but now that the kids are grown up, she wants to get back to her career.

In their green room interview, Travis jokes about his wife tricking him, as he married her with the hopes of her being a perfect stay at home wife, who would run the house and look after the family, but now she wants to pursue a career. While the husband and wife seemed to be having fun with their little banter, fans weren't happy with Travis' attitude, and his tone. Many fans compared the Travis shown on the latest episode to the Season 1 version of him, who was extremely unpopular amongst fans for being too controlling of Stephanie.

A fan tweeted, "Anyone else not surprised that Travis doesn’t really care to give back, or that he asks his wife when dinner is going to be ready to dismiss a conversation #Gross #RHOD." Another fan wrote, "Wow good to know Travis is still the human epitome of rotting garbage.. #RHOD."

"I’ve decided I don’t like Stephanie’s husband Travis. I think he belittles her all the time and is a complete a**hole. #RHOD," declared a fan. Another fan commented, "Travis is walking a fine line to go back to season one a**hole Travis with list and I don’t like that #RHOD."

Fans also pointed out how Travis' Trump-supporting side was on full display on the latest episode. A fan shared, "Love Stephanie and her heart. But I can see why Travis is a Trumper when he’s giving her grief for CHARITY for doing something that gives back. #rhod."

"The tr*mp supporter in Travis is coming out in this ep #RHOD," seconded another fan.
