RHOSLC Cast Unpacks the Shocking Moment They "Caught" Britani Bateman Filming With Lisa Barlow Sticking Up For Her

Britani Bateman was under hot water after being accused of secretly recording her castmates while the group was on a trip to Puerto Vallarta. The accusations have been met with strong reactions from her Real Housewives of Salt Lake City co-stars, some of whom believe she was filming with ill intentions, despite Britani Bateman’s defense that it was all unintentional.

In a tense conversation during the RHOSLC After Show, Whitney Rose revealed, “I know she was filming us, because I caught her filming earlier. She was filming us walk through the airport and she sent it off to a group of friends.” Whitney’s claim set the stage for what would become a heated discussion about privacy, consent, and whether Britani had ulterior motives.

Bronwyn Newport, adding to the conversation, was equally certain. “I mean, Britani could tell me ’til the day she dies that she wasn’t recording us, [but] she was recording us. And she had been before that.” This sentiment was echoed by Heather Gay, who remarked, “Britani, love you, [but] she was fully recording. And she was doing it in a morally superior way, going ‘Look at these crazy bitches.’ … None of her excuses were landing.”

While the cast members are filmed regularly as part of the show, they argue that the situation is different when it comes to private, unapproved footage. Bronwyn sharply pointed out, “It’s about consent for me. I let Bravo into my home, and I take that very seriously. I consented to that. I did not consent to Britani Bateman having a recording of Lisa [Barlow] and I fighting over whether or not she believes my husband had an emotional affair and that I shared it with you guys.” She continued, “That’s completely f—-d up, that she would be in possession of that material. And she does not understand that.”

Despite the mounting accusations, Britani maintains that her actions were innocent. She defended herself saying, “I mean, if anyone had any proof that I had done anything to hurt anyone on purpose, that would be one thing. But no one did. Everyone was making the worst assumptions about me.” According to Britani, she was simply texting her daughter, Olivia, and wanted to share some videos from the trip.

However, most of her co-stars were quick to dismiss this explanation. As Bronwyn pointed out, “It was not to send to her daughter a congratulatory note. It was not to remember this beautiful time in Puerto Vallarta together. It was to have something on all of us.” The implication was clear: Britani had been gathering footage for personal reasons, which the cast found troubling.

Amidst the backlash, Lisa Barlow was one of the few cast members who came to Britani’s defense. During the After Show, Lisa recalled a moment when the group had access to Britani’s phone. “You let us look through your phone, there was nothing on there, so we looked at text messages with you and Jared [Osmond], we looked at messages with you and your kids, and like, nobody could delete [anything] that fast,” Lisa said. “For me, I was like, ‘I’m resolved.’”

These women are a bunch of drama queens! ?? Good lord almighty! It would be less frustrating (and far more enjoyable ?) to ferry around a bus full of ADHD toddlers, hopped up on a sugar high for six hours straight, than to spend 45 minutes trying to referee the pettiness and childishness of these grown azz women’s ridiculous disputes! All their husbands either have the patience of Job or a side piece waiting in the wings! These broads are ALL insufferable! ????

The pile-on was a bit much, but as Angie said, bitch sure does "recover" quickly. Lisa Barlow's perfectly timed comment about looking good in a bikini (as if that was the most important thing) was hilarious as well. The SLC ladies are killing it, and IMO, remain the reigning queens of the HW series (for the last two seasons).

Lisa can be hilarious. I really like the show but let's face it, they don't have much competition right now. But it is a good season and I do like Lisa more. I think I'm beginning to understand her humour. Heather is looking fab this season. The best she's ever looked.

Yep, but I sure am going to miss the "Shrek" references.

Yeah, it was tad harsh

IDK...they're on camera so what is the big deal unless she's recording them in private moments. But Lisa said they all checked her phone and nothing was there. Yikes...lesson learned. I do think we need stronger privacy laws because audio and visual recordings can now be easily altered with AI.

Right ? Like you forgot you’re on tv ya morons lol??? They always just pick on the newest , seemingly weak .. I can’t with Bronwyn though . She’s worse to me than Brit . Who is Meredith tell people they must leave always lmao ? Like girl , sit down .

"ya morons"...love it. They have cameras stuck in their faces for crying out loud. Meredith telling people to leave is becoming kinda iconic. It's her tone and the expression on her face! Sometimes I really like Bronwyn and sometimes not so much. Jury is still out on that one for me.

She won't be sitting down anytime soon, they live for meme moments. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7aa77610a33dd7bfef4ba01438cb6f8c1c2cffccd09aacabf528099331946378.png

This episode was incredible. The Season has been incredible. Was Britani recording them? Yes. was she doing it to send to TMZ No. Britani is not smart enough, I honestly believe she was going to send it to her boo Jared and says "Hunny, Look at my crazy girls" Meredith was so performative because Britani was probably listening at the door because a producer told her something was going on Meredith is crying and it sounds like Shes throwing up. Meredith is having Marriage problems and she doesn't want anyone to know. And Welcome back Heather you were incredible this Episode and i love her your comment about infidelity set Meredith off at the end of the episode and you kept going looking for a hidden listening device!! Hilarious!!!!!! LOL

She’s definitely on something stronger than Ozempic. seems a little more zoned out than usual and those wild eyes could give Ramona a run.
