Meredith Marks is calling out Britani Bateman for her “hatred” after allegedly pulling her hair on a plane amid Tuesday’s episode of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.
As Meredith, 53, looked back at their drama and Lisa Barlow, 50, explained why she was “100 percent Team Meredith,” Britani, 54, reflected on Lisa’s betrayal and pointed out that she was “grateful” that the rest of the cast had her back.
“[Britani] has a lot of hatred towards me, and I don’t have hatred towards her because you actually have to care enough about someone to hate them, and I’m just not that interested,” Meredith stated during a November 11 interview with Bravo HQ.
As for potential regrets, she added, “Am I sorry that her feelings were hurt that I chose the wrong place? Yes, I am. But that’s it. I’m not sorry for what I said, because it’s all true.”
Reflecting on Britani’s suggestion that Meredith’s husband, Seth Marks, was having an affair, Lisa said that she sided with Meredith because what Britani said was “wrong” and “gross.”
“It’s wrong. It’s gross. It was [in] bad taste,” she noted, mentioning that she didn’t think it was fair for the cast to “hold [her] responsible for Meredith’s alleged actions.”
While Britani was upset that Lisa immediately took Meredith’s side, she noted that she “was the only one … on that side of history.”
“I gave her a hard line in the sand. I said, ‘Look, if you are condoning and endorsing and co-signing on Meredith’s behavior right now, and especially Meredith’s behavior toward me, then you and I are gonna have a problem’ … And she goes, ‘Well, then I choose Meredith’ … So, it became the Lisa and Meredith Show and then the rest of us,” she revealed. “[But] I feel really fortunate, blessed, thankful, grateful, whatever you wanna call it to have everyone else on my side.”
Elsewhere, Whitney Rose, 39, said that Meredith and Britani were “polar opposites in every way, shape, and form,” and she suspected they would “never get along.” She also wondered why Meredith couldn’t forgive her for bringing up the rumor about Seth.
“We’ve forgiven each other for a lot of things,” she noted as Mary Cosby, 53, admitted that Meredith seemed agitated “by anything Britani [did].”
As for how the cast felt as a whole, Mary said they “all sided with Britani a little bit.”
“We felt like Meredith was in the wrong of this. So when we got back, we all still felt that Britani deserved an apology and Meredith should not have behaved in the way she did,” she noted.
Also speaking to Bravo HQ, Bronwyn Newport, 40, declared herself “pro-Meredith.”
“You see me many times kind of saying to Britani, ‘Stop it.’ I think there’s something fundamental about the two of them that they just don’t get along. They’re just oil and water. And Britani doesn’t know when to leave well enough alone,” she explained.
Then, after admitting to worrying that she played a role in Meredith and Britani’s drama since she was involved in the unicorn being thrown overboard, Bronwyn suggested that things wouldn’t have gone “off the rails” if Meredith had recognized that she “needed to recalibrate.”
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season six airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
