‘Real Housewives of New York’: Kiki checks her mom, fans slam Leah for her 'spoiled and entitled' attitude
When Leah McSweeney first appeared on ‘Real Housewives of New York’, fans instantly took to her refreshingly raw and unfiltered attitude. She called spade a spade and held back nothing when it came to voicing her opinions and concerns. She may have been newbie but she was brave enough to stand up against OG housewife Ramona Singer, when she felt she was being treated badly.
But we also saw another side of Leah, her drinking. Although in her debut episode, Leah revealed that she spirals out of control when she gets drunk, we had a tough time believing that someone so rational and level-headed could be a wild drunk. But true to her words, we saw a very different and scary side of Leah after she got drunk. From throwing temper tantrums to engaging in unruly behavior, Leah was definitely not her best self after putting some alcohol in her body.
One of the biggest bones of contentions for Leah, whenever she drank, was how her mother reacted to it. She explained in an episode that her mother stopped speaking to her after hearing that she began drinking again. Leah revealed that her parents kicked her out of the house when she was 19 after she was arrested. This appears to still bother Leah because on the latest episode, during a dinner with her daughter Kiki and her baby daddy Rob, she brings up the topic.
Leah shares how her parents did her dirty by kicking her out of the house. But Kiki wasn’t willing to indulge her mother and pointed out that it was high time Leah left home, considering she was already 19. When Leah tried defending herself, Kiki began questioning her mother for not applying to colleges or making an attempt to change her life by herself until her parents pushed her to.
Fans were glad to see Kiki call her mother out, and slammed Leah for being ‘spoiled’ and ‘entitled’. A fan tweeted, "THANK YOU, KIKI. My love for Leah is waning. She seems incredibly spoiled and entitled at this Chinese dinner. #RHONY."
"My reaction while Leah’s daughter is checking her spoiled, entitled, bull crap over dinner with her ex that she’s totally not sleeping with... #RHONY. The children really are the future," commented a fan."Leah says she's still angry that her parents wouldn't let her come home after rehab. Does she ever own her behavior? She didn't get sober until her daughter was 2. She's not sober now. #RHONY," pointed out a fan. Another fan wrote, "Omg, Leah is a child raising a child... She bitches about everything… Look in the mirror dear are you the problem? Or is it your parents?#RHONY."
‘Real Housewives of New York’ Season 12 airs every Thursday at 9/8c only on Bravo.
