When did Crystal Kung marry Rob Minkoff? Dorit Kemsley hits back calling 'RHOBH' star a 'child bride'
BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Crystal Kung Minkoff tied the knot with renowned director Rob Minkoff in 2007. Crystal, then 24, married the 45-year-old director. However, the term "child bride" sparked controversy after Crystal was slammed for labeling her fellow stars as "shallow and uneducated." During a heated exchange, Dorit Kemsley retaliated, saying, "By the way, child bride, while you were busy getting married at 12, the rest of us were building businesses, graduating college, doing things, you know, to educate ourselves."
Later, when questioned by her fellow stars about labeling them "shallow and uneducated," Crystal says, "I would not say that to someone that I just met and I don't feel that way." However, a flashback clip contradicted Crystal's statement. In one of the previous episodes, she remarked, "These women are quite shabby, but they clearly are not highly educated." The Real Housewives drama unveils conflicting perspectives.

How many times are people going to let her get away with this crap??"
