Caroline Brooks Slams The Real Housewives of Dubai as "Overly Orchestrated" with Cast Hiding Their True Selves

Caroline Brooks, star of The Real Housewives of Dubai, is not holding back when it comes to addressing the pause of her show and the future of the franchise. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), she’s been sharing her perspective on what the cast was told after Bravo’s decision to put the series on hold. Responding to a tweet from @OMFGRealityTV, Caroline Brooks revealed the conversation that went down behind the scenes.

Caroline Brooks Slams The Real Housewives of Dubai as “Overly Orchestrated” with Cast Hiding Their True Selves

“We were told, ‘You guys are not being picked up for a third season, I’m really sorry because I feel like you guys deserved one. Thank you so much for two great seasons ladies. Wish you all the best of luck,’” Caroline explained. She added, “This is what #RHODubai was told, unfortunately. Happy New Year.”

In November, news broke that Bravo’s first international Housewives series, The Real Housewives of Dubai, was being paused indefinitely. Following her initial response, fans and followers began flooding Brooks with questions, many seeking clarity on what exactly had happened.

When a meme from The Real Housewives of Atlanta featuring Porsha Williams saying, “Who said that?” made the rounds, Caroline Brooks was quick to share more details. She explained that, during a group call with the cast, some of her co-stars thanked the network for the opportunity, while others were left in shock. “Some of us graciously thanked them for the opportunity, while others stayed silent in disbelief. The delusion is real—some think the show will return, but it was clearly stated: this was our last season.”

As for her personal reaction to the news, Caroline Brooks made it clear she wasn’t heartbroken over the pause. “Honestly, I’m not upset the show was canceled or paused—whatever term you prefer. It felt toxic, overly orchestrated, and many were hiding their true identities. Housewives should be authentic, not forced. I’m grateful for the opportunity, but not the experience.”

Addressing rumors about the reasons behind the show’s hiatus, particularly those suggesting it was due to Dubai’s laws, Caroline shot down the speculation. “Those rumors aren’t true. Every episode is approved by lawyers or officials to ensure it’s appropriate for TV in this region. If they thought laws were broken, the Dubai Film and TV Commission would’ve revoked our permits, and that didn’t happen. Don’t believe everything you read.”

But Brooks didn’t stop there. She also took a jab at former co-star Taleen, who had been vocal on social media about the show’s fate. “Taleen really thought she ate,” Caroline tweeted. “Now Instagram’s dragging her. If I’d known ‘cancelled’ would trigger her and her homegirls this much, I could’ve said ‘paused indefinitely’ to ease her mind. Same meaning though. She should’ve stayed quiet and not come for me. FACTS. #RhODubai”

It’s clear that Caroline is done holding back and is ready to speak her truth about the show’s pause, the people involved, and her experience on The Real Housewives of Dubai. While the future of the series remains uncertain, one thing’s for sure: Caroline Brooks is keeping it real.

Meh, I could never get into this show, specifically because I couldn’t STAND Stanbury. I DESPISED her on Ladies of London and had no desire to see her elsewhere ever. So, I never bothered to be acquainted with this Caroline and it appears she’s not so popular BUT I’ll give her credit anyway for an ostensible stopped clock moment cuz methinks the lady is ? JMO.

I didn’t like her too much on London , liked her better on here .

She's gorgeous and agreed, she was much nicer on Dubai. Damn Andy and Bravo for this!

I enjoyed Ladies of London ; some questionable moments at times but I did enjoy
Zap It January 3, 2025 - 7:58 pm
Oh no!!!! I adore Stanbury and I LOVED the Ladies of London! WTH!!!!! Caroline Stanbury is drop dead gorgeous and I absolutely adore her with Sergio. Ladies of London was iconic. So much class that it makes the HW franchise look like a horse in a mule's harness so to speak. Okay, she was b*tch on Ladies of London but I loved that b*tch. So we will agree to disagree. Forever. On this one subject. BTW, her face lift was spectacular. She looked stunning on the reunion.

Definitely agree to disagree BUT agree on her having good work done. HOWEVER, imo, she didn’t need it. To each her own, but a bit of gilding the lily imo.

I thought she was sagging a bit to be honest. The whole white skin thing...so unfair. But wow, she is flawless after that face lift! Mind you, the surgeon had a lot to work with given she really is beautiful. I love that accent too. LOL

Brooks is delusional and thinks she is more popular than she is while she constantly throws out shade and hate at her other cast members and thinks that fans find that endearing and cool. It’s not. Her last mean shot at her cast members the majority of posts pushed back. It’s funny when it’s once a while mean jabs, but when it’s all you do, it’s just mean and unlikeable and this was one of the problems with the show is there was too many cold, Queen bee mean women and no one likeable or funny to watch. The show had amazing wealth, great parties and trips but just a miserable cast, except maybe 1 or 2 cast. The shows have to be funny and make you smile too. In fact, that is what most of the HW series are missing compared to the early episodes, the fun, laughter and creativity.

Agreed about Caroline Brooks but a miserable cast? They were in no way as miserable or in anyway vicious as Beverly Hills as an example. As in Kyle, EJ, Rinna, or OC as in Tamra or Salt Lake as in Monica or the one who's in jail right now. Just a few examples. It was a great show and the only one that was truly mean was Brooks but hey, you need contrast so she served a purpose. Fabulous clothes, hair, makeup. And Dubai!!! I have no idea why anyone would not absolutely love this show. JMO...and I'm sad because clearly I'm in the minority.

This one is cray . Whatever happened is unfortunate because I did like the franchise however her messiness , flipping at drop of a hat and the way she treats the others - not for me . She to me was the “ orchestrated “ one , like she’s an in demand actress lmao . I cannot stand when someone brings a bff for years on then turns on them for tv . Unreal ..

That situation was pure jealousy, bringing on the best friend, best friend hits it off with the cast members and first Brooks is jealous of that, then she really makes a splash with the Bravo fans on the show because she is upbeat, funny and then Brooks decides she really has to take her down then. So petty and unnecessary. Helps implode their own show.
michers January 3, 2025 - 1:00 pm
Yup!!
Zap It January 3, 2025 - 8:03 pm
It was crazy the way she turned on Taleen. There was one scene at the end when they started dancing together in I think their cowboy boots...it looked like Lucy and Ethel having a great moment. Too bad.
michers January 5, 2025 - 11:24 am
Brooks was pissed people liked taleen right away and she fit in ; even with fans

I'm getting really sick of the BS with using Disqus. The whole image thing and having to do it multiple times is getting to be too much of a hassle to sign in. Okay, now that I'm FINALLY here...WTH does "Taleen really thought she ate" mean??? Sincere question or maybe it's just a Dubai thing? To be honest, Caroline Brooks was the least likeable HW on that show. I didn't mind her but she's an angry lady and she's mean. I'm still bummed that this show was cancelled. I'd be in shock too considering the subpar nonsense we watch on the other shows in this franchise. Given what Bravo has done to Jersey and now Dubai, I'm losing interest. And I have been watching this franchise since the first season of Orange County. Andy can go f*ck himself. It would be really nice to see him be put on PAUSE. Or cancelled. Indefinitely. BTW, he looked ridiculous on NYE and so did Anderson Cooper.

Agree - and about Disqus too
