Bronwyn Newport is opening up about where things truly stand with Lisa Barlow, and while she frames the fallout as deeply hurtful, the situation appears far more complicated than a simple case of being blindsided.

During Bravo’s After Show for The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Bronwyn revisited the moment she says changed everything between her and Lisa, claiming she was shocked by how dismissive Lisa appeared to be at last year’s reunion.

“So Lisa and I left the reunion last year, and I thought we were much closer than she was making out to be on camera in front of the women,” Bronwyn said. “So to have her say to me in New York, you know I never knew you, I never cared about you. You were never important to me. That was new information that I was processing in front of everyone watching at home and it was really hurtful.”

But when viewers look back at the reunion itself, Lisa’s actual wording was notably more measured. At the time, Lisa said, “I enjoy Bronwyn, but it was definitely more of a social friendship.”

Still, Bronwyn insists she was invested in building something deeper, even after feeling publicly minimized.

“I did want a relationship with Lisa Barlow up until that point,” she explained, referring to the reunion. “And I think you see throughout the season that I kind of try. I was like Goldilocks, trying.”

That effort, according to Bronwyn, quickly turned combative, a shift she now acknowledges wasn’t authentic to who she is, even as she defends why she reacted the way she did.

“And first she fought back saying, ‘If I don’t mean anything to you, I guess you wont care if I bring up your lawsuits or if I tell you I think youre a liar, you know? Whatever,’” Bronwyn said. “And it’s not natural to me to fight that way and I do apologize. You see me just kind of say we’re just going to be civil. And I realize oh we’re not going to be civil, she is going to bring up my daughter and this really sensitive thing that I’ve specifically told her is hurtful to my child, is hurtful to my family. Please stay away from, you would not want this for your husband.”

Bronwyn went on to describe feeling targeted not just by Lisa, but by others joining in, something she says crossed an unforgivable line.

“Hearing her talk about my daughter and then Angie piling on and Todd too, she’s been saying this about Todd and a friend of hers. You know?”

When asked where she stands with Lisa today, Bronwyn made it clear there is no relationship, and suggested the door has been firmly shut on Lisa’s end.

“I do not speak to Lisa. I mean, it would be hard for me to speak to Lisa,” she said before laughing. “I believe she has me blocked on everything. I don’t know, that’s the impression I get because people have to like screenshot negative comments, she says about me. I don’t actually see them in person, so I believe, I’m blocked on everything.”

But it was what happened after filming wrapped that seemed to cement Bronwyn’s feelings, and raised eyebrows given how far things had already gone onscreen.

“I did not hear from her when my father passed,” Bronwyn shared. “My dad passed after filming and I heard from everybody on the cast no matter where I stood with them at the end of filming, with the exception of Lisa. If you dont have sympathy for somebody who’s unexpectedly lost a parent, I’m really meaningless to you. And I don’t have people in my life who treat me that way.”

While Bronwyn frames the silence as proof of how little she mattered to Lisa, the timeline tells a more layered story — one that includes public insults, deeply personal accusations, and a level of escalation that made reconciliation unlikely long before the blocking ever happened.
