Lisa Barlow and Bronwyn Newport's RHOSLC Feud Explained

Yesterday at 01:00 PM

Lisa Barlow might think she had made a big mistake in introducing her friend, Bronwyn Newport, to the group. The Vida Tequila owner was the one who brought the newbie onto the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. But all they have done is constantly fight. Bronwyn is peeved about how she has been treated by her friend of ten years. Yet Lisa doesn't feel like she has done anything wrong. So, where has the communication worn down for these two?

How the RHOSLC feud started

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City viewers watched as Bronwyn tried to explain that she felt like her longtime friend was taking sides. The feud seemed to slowly form after Heather Gay left B's house without resolving their issues. Over the last few seasons, Heather and Lisa have formed a close bond. And the two have really been thick as thieves for Season 5. Bronwyn was planning a trip to Palm Springs and chose to leave Heather off the guest list, so the Sundance Queen had opinions.

While settling into the California mansion Lisa thought it would be a good idea to call Heather with the rest of the ladies while Bronwyn was in the bathroom. The host was already upset with Lisa for not daring to reach out prior to the couple’s trip. Their first fight occurred by the pool, as Bronwyn noted Lisa had continually brought up the fact that Heather was not a guest. The straw on the camel's back was when Heather was FaceTimed in front of her. The tension became so bad that Bronwyn had her husband hand out a warning to the Barlows about being kicked out. Needless to say, the moment was uncomfortable.

We all know these ladies are rich, especially the newbie. So if Bronwyn downgrades you from first class to economy, there is a good reason. During the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City After Show, Bronwyn shared that Lisa had been talking behind the scenes. She noted, "Let me introduce Lisa to the world in which other people live. I’ll tell you this: Lisa has been telling a lot of people behind the scenes — the whispers get back to me — that she and John Barlow have more money than Todd and I do and that she’s put a down payment on a plane of her own. I don’t want to drop my big dick on the table because it’s not mine, it’s my husband’s, but Todd is fine.”

As viewers saw, Lisa was livid at the idea that she would have to fly for an hour in seat 17C. She threatened to get her own longer flight with multiple stops just to be able to fly first class. The whole argument was petty and clearly rubbed both women the wrong way. Bronwyn added, “Todd and I routinely fly coach if we have to go somewhere last-minute and there’s not another seat.”

The fashionista continued to pummel her foe verbally. "If Lisa wanted to, there were plenty of options,” Bronwyn continued. “There’s a Porsche dealership. She could’ve gone and bought herself a f*cking car and driven herself home if she had $80,000 to buy a car. She could’ve got herself a plane for $30,000, she could’ve paid and stayed at the house another night. There are options for Lisa and her unlimited budget to do whatever she wants to. On my dime? I put her in coach. If that’s the end of our friendship from her perspective, totally fine.”

Bronwyn shut down any further discussion, adding, “If Lisa’s so opposed to coach, why does she put her glam team in coach? My glam team flies first class.” During another clip, Bronwyn shared that she did think she and Lisa had left Palm Springs on neutral terms. Instead, there was a massive fallout in Mexico.

Even in a tropical paradise, the ladies found it hard to get along. After finding out that she had been put in bungalow two with Whitney Rose and Britani Bateman, B just about lost her mind trying to figure out the message Lisa was trying to send her. During cocktail hour, Bronwyn tried to share why she was upset, but Lisa kept missing the memo, making the altercation worse. Instead of understanding why her friend was upset, Lisa doubled down and told Bronwyn to be grateful.

Naturally, the women are not in a great place. During an interview with Us Weekly, Lisa shared, "I just think it complicated with Bronwyn cause when you ask your friend to do something for you, and they do it like the level of accountability you have to take for doing that." The sentiment was a bit confusing, but I am sure we will have a resolution on the reunion that was just filmed.

 However, Bronwyn seems trepidatious about continuing any kind of relationship, as she shared in another clip from the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City episode. "I don’t know if Lisa has the tools to fix it in a friendship,” she said. “Something has gone wrong between Lisa and I since I’ve been introduced to the group. There was something that I did early on, that I still don’t know what it is, that has upset Lisa. And Lisa’s a punisher. She punishes people.” These two clearly need all the help they can get.
