Welcome to the Bravotv.com interview stage.
I'm Kate Chastain here with some Housewives
from around the globe. That's right.
We are worldwide.
It's day three of Bravo con.
It's still early in the day, but with me,
I've got Whitney Rose from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.
I've got Nina from Real Housewives of Dubai,
and I have Alexia from Real Housewives of Miami.
Welcome, ladies.
Is this is your first time meeting each other?
Well, we've met, like, briefly.
Very briefly.
And did you guys Whitney and And I went
on the Ultimate Girls trip.
So we got to know each other across the world?
Yeah, that certainly counts.
Anything you guys can tease or spill about that trip?
Oh, boy.
Our panel is later today, so hopefully you can get in.
But it was fun.
There's a lot of action, right?
Yes, it was a lot of fun.
It's very different from the type of show that we're on.
Oh, really?
So it was a nice experience.
We actually met there.
Whitney and I and I loved it because I had
never really watched her show.
No disrespect on watch any show because I get
makes me a little bit uncomfortable.
Watch your own right.
I don't even watch my own show.
So anyways, I had the opportunity
to meet these wonderful women from different franchises
and we all connected.
Or at some point or another we had so many similarities
and I felt that it was a great, great experience.
So how is it different?
Then regular or not?
Yeah, it's different in that when you're with your city,
it's way more intense, way more emotional, way more deep
meeting women from other cities.
When there's conflict, I feel like it's easier to resolve
because it's not that deep.
Yeah, and it's open, right?
We were, like, more open.
We just wanted to have fun.
Yeah And I think that we went there like
we everyone dove in to get to know each other
on a very deep level.
Good, bad, ugly.
The beautiful.
Yeah speaking of, I heard the panel for Salt Lake yesterday
got pretty deep.
Oh oh, did it go at knee?
Any thoughts about it?
Yeah, that was pretty shocking.
I learned a few things on that panel.
I'm going to be completely honest.
I feel like I was gaslit the entire time, so I was
in shock of what was going on.
But I have to say, keep watching the season
and you'll understand why it was so spicy.
Well, you looked gorgeous.
Thank you.
I heard you also were at the party with Kathy Hilton
doing a conga line on the first night of bravocon.
Yes, I got to do the conga line with Kathy Hilton.
That's amazing.
And the poll and the poll of Teresa Giudice, Teresa
told me you were great on the poll.
So, ladies, are there any Bravo shows that you're obsessed with
or anyone you wanted to meet this weekend
at bravocon you same.
It's so nice to meet you.
I actually I just want to meet all of the ladies
from the other franchises because I kind of feel
like we're a family, you know, we're all in the same industry
and, you know, living on the other side of the world,
it's hard.
So this is my first time where I actually
get three days to meet as many of these beautiful women
as I can.
Yeah, that must be so nice for you.
It's such a nice opportunity.
What were you most nervous about each of you
before you signed on to be a housewife?
I guess at the time that I signed up,
my husband back then didn't really
want me to be on the show.
He was very private and I was very nervous that I had kind
of done this behind his back.
I cast it for the show behind his back,
and when I had the contract and I
signed it also behind his back, I was in trouble.
So anyways, but, you know, I felt that it was something
I needed to do for me.
And I know a lot of the ladies like to blame the show,
the cause of their marriage ending the show.
For me, it was never like that.
So if I wouldn't have taken that opportunity
and I would have decided not to do it because of him,
we still would have been divorced.
So I'm happy that I made that opportunity and that Bravo.
Yes, definitely.
How about you ladies?
Were you nervous about anything before?
You know, for me, it's because it's reality.
It's not scripted TV.
So this is when people from all around the world
are seeing you like the private parts of you, the day to day
life of you and your family.
And so that was know, I was a bit nervous about that.
But so far it's been good.
It's been good.
So great.
Yeah I mean, I have a lot going on in my life.
Yeah, there's a lot of layers and a lot of things,
and I was nervous to share all of that,
but I'm so glad I have.
And you're so good with it.
You are so good with sharing.
So which Housewives do you all admire the most and why?
After hearing Alex's story and everything
that she's been through and really diving deep
into her life in Thailand, I have mad respect for her.
She has been through so much and she's so strong,
so composed and just so kind.
I agree.
Thank you.
It can be from your own past as well.
Yeah I mean, to be honest, we don't get Bravo in Dubai.
So I haven't watched any of the recent franchises.
So I only know the old, old Housewives.
That's all right.
I love Lisa Vanderpump.
Like, yeah, she was iconic.
She really was.
I liked her and I admire all of them
because even though my story is very compelling and strong,
I feel like all of us deserve the same respect and credit
because we put our lives out there
and we show a lot of vulnerability.
And to me, you know, all of them deserve the same respect
and admiration.
That was a great answer.
I'm going to have to watch.
I want to hear you say it was so good.
Nina, you are the newest Housewife in this group.
What did you expect going into filming
and how was it different in reality?
Like what was different when you actually started?
To be honest, I kind of just jumped into it.
I kind of always knew one day this
was going to be my destiny.
Like, I just knew I kind of manifested it.
I always tell people that and I just jumped in.
It kind of just happened.
We started filming.
And I think and you girls can probably
agree once you start filming, you kind of forget that you're
filming and it just becomes a part of your day to day,
you know?
And Yeah.
How is your fruitcake business going?
It's going good.
I wish I could bring all of you fruitcake.
So so do we.
The same fruitcake that you get in the US.
So, Alexia, Real Housewives of Miami,
it went on an 11 year hiatus before coming back.
How did you mentally prepare for the cameras
to come back into your life having already done it?
Well, for me, it was easier because I had already done it,
so I knew what to expect.
I always believed that Miami would come back.
I always felt it in my heart.
I just didn't want it to be 8 years later.
And so when we did, I think we came back at a good time.
It was during COVID.
And, you know, I think the world was ready to see Miami, see
our beautiful weather and the beaches
and see like the Latino influence
and the diversity and the inclusiveness
that we have in Miami.
Right so I think the world was just ready for us.
I think when we were on TV in 2010,
America didn't really get us.
And I think that Miami became a more popular city,
especially during the pandemic.
And here we are again after eight years doing amazing.
I live in Fort Lauderdale.
You guys make South Florida very proud.
Whitney is just uncomfortable with how much
of your relationship you share on camera down to the love art
y'all created in season two.
I mean, he's standing right there, we should ask.
I trust.
You know, Justin, I am very lucky.
And I think anyone who's met him here
knows that he is so supportive, so kind and so sweet.
And yes, I wish I would have protected him a little more
and love his art.
But it's us and we're proud of it.
And so we do have a little game for you all to play.
We're going to rank the best of the Housewives
with superlatives, like in high school.
Like most Congeniality.
Most popular.
Most likely to succeed.
So for each category I read, name the housewife, past,
present, or from your franchise or another that gets your vote.
This would be a rapid fire.
Which Real Housewives is the best dressed, best
dressed housewife?
Dorit Dorit and Beverly Hills.
I say the same.
I agree.
Yeah, I agree, I think.
I also love Alexia style and Lisa Barlow from my cast.
She does dress very well.
Oc number two which real Housewife has the best hair?
The audience is saying, Kyle, by you, by all of Dubai.
Everything's bigger in Dubai.
Yeah bigger and more beautiful.
So which real Housewife is the friendliest?
You ladies have been very friendly.
A lot of them are.
And let's see.
I'm going to pick one more.
Margaret Josephs, she's so friendly.
Which which real Housewife and husband are the hottest couple.
Todd and I, Whitney and Justin, your husband.
Sorry all of us.
Our husbands and our husbands.
I like that you are choosing your own husband.
That's very healthy and good.
Well, Thank you so much for stopping
by the Bravo TV documentary.
You guys are amazing.
