Since Season 2 of Real Housewives of Dallas was filmed months ago, there is a lot of back story missing when it comes to the social media activity between the cast members. Clearly there is a lot of tension there, but the viewers are just behind because the conflicts haven’t aired on TV yet.
If you follow D’Andra Simmons or Brandi Redmond on Twitter, it is very clear that they are not best friends, but as far as the show goes, there’s nothing to indicate why… yet.
D’Andra discussed her disconnect with Brandi in an interview for Bravo’s The Daily Dish podcast. She admitted, “I don’t think we’re at a great place right now, but the next couple of episodes later, I think we’ll be in a different place.” That was pretty vague, but I am intrigued nonetheless. After a blah first season, I’m getting into Dallas this year.
D’Andra explained, “I feel like we are at different places in our life and I think that’s probably what the acrimony you’re seeing is. We are not understanding each other because we really didn’t spend a lot of time to get to know each other. She’s the only cast member on the show that I didn’t know. Every other person I was friends with.”
She added, “That’s where you’re seeing that tension and the things that are playing out right now on social media.” But why? I guess the fans will have to wait for specifics.
D’Andra also pointed out, “She’s the OG so she’s probably going to have a lot more people who are on her side and have a lot to say about the new girl.”
One person who D’Andra is actually friends with is the infamous LeeAnne Locken. She admitted that she would talk to LeeAnne after the episodes and say, “I would call her and be like ‘put down the champagne’ or something.” She also told LeeAnne, “This is not a good look for you or this is not a good decision. ”
D’Andra continued, “We would have the same conversation after each episode: ‘why did you do that?'” Even as her good friend, D’Andra admitted, “It was hard for me to watch her do some of the things that she did. ”
