Braunwyn Windham-Burke has made up for much of her past, but the recovering alcoholic still broke down when Shannon Beador claimed she wanted to buy her teenage daughter drugs.
The conversation started during the first part of the ‘RHOC’ reunion when Beador, 56, said, ‘Me [didn’t] know if i would say this today, but as a mother i am going to do it. When my daughter Stella was 14 years old at her very first beach BBQ, you went up to her and said, “Stella, if you want the good stuff, text me.” It continued in part two of Wednesday’s reunion, with Windham-Burke weeping over the charge.
“My apologies. I get it,” said Windham-Burke, 43, through tears as the conversation progressed. “I’m so sorry I did.”
“I would never do that sober,” she added.
Beador seemingly forgave her as the conversation went on, saying, “Okay. I appreciate that.”
Emily Simpson agreed that she could tell Windham-Burke that she was genuinely sorry: the latter at one point exclaimed, ‘I’m f-ng disgusted.’
“I don’t think Brauwyn owns many things that she does, and she does,” Simpson offered, as Elizabeth Lyn Vargas had agreed.
“I wasn’t pretty and I did a lot of things that made me feel ashamed,” explained Windham-Burke.
Beador said she understood, to which Kelly Dodd intervened: “Do you understand? If someone said that to my daughter, I would go crazy. “
Beador admitted that she was upset by the incident, but that she spoke to her daughter about it and explained where Windham-Burke was at the time.
“I believe I did,” said Windham-Burke, wiping tears from her eyes. “I’ve done terrible things, but I’m so sorry.”
Host Andy Cohen closed the segment, but Windham-Burke was so upset by the conversation that she broke into tears again later in the episode when it got to the first commercial break, when Beador tried to comfort her by saying: [was] long ago Braunwyn. “
“I think of all the things I’ve done that might be the worst,” said Windham-Burke before leaving the podium. Simpson left to comfort her before the reunion resumed.
It’s unclear whether Windham-Burke and Beador have further mended their relationship since taping the reunion.
