We're going to check me both Hey everyone Welcome back to the Mention at All podcast I am so excited To be joined today in the studio By one of our newest housewives She has really been making a splash On Real Housewives of Salt Lake City

This season Both her outfits, her comebacks Her flight booking strategies I am so excited to have Bronwyn-Newport here to chat all things SLC. Hi. I'm so happy to be here. And I promise I'll never book you a flight. Okay. Well, I, sitting in coach for me is is not, not a strange occurrence, I would say. I, but 17C. I mean, like, you could be further back in the plane. A thousand percent you could. I didn't put her in the bathroom. I mean, I don't know if they

sell a ticket in the bathroom, but they're probably trying at this point. If they can sell you. I bet Frontier Airlines does. I, I've been enjoying. you on this season so much. Obviously, it's our first introduction to you. We're still kind of getting to know each other as viewers, as housewives. I'm curious, going back to your decision to join the show, can you just talk me through how this came into your life? Yeah, I mean, I've talked about it before, and it was never quite the right moment for me.

My daughter and my husband are much more private than I am, and I felt like this was the perfect time for me to do it. my husband's still very much involved in work, travels quite a bit. My daughter's on the cusp of living her own life, you know, out of my clutches, moving out of the house, doing her own thing. And I just feel like there's so much interesting. I still hope all of my best days were ahead of me, right? So what am I going to do next? I'm not parenting a child actively every day. And I was working on, I was producing a Broadway show. I had a pair of pajama, a line of pajamas coming out. There were all these fun things that I wanted to explore and also kind of double down on

friendships with new ladies in this different, you know, phase of my life. I'm curious talking about your, your husband and your daughter. I think anybody who joins housewives, if you have a family, there is kind of that group decision to do it together because, you know, we, we hope that everyone shares their lives and stuff. And Gwen in particular is old enough to have this, you know, she is going to see how this has an impact. And I'm wondering, like, what was that kind of discussion, not just that she was going to

film with you for the show, but also just like, what does it mean that mom is a housewife? Yeah, I think it is fascinating and embarrassing for her that mom is a housewife for sure. When, you know, I meet fans or whatever, I think she's horrified that people think I'm cool because she does not at all. She thinks I'm the worst. We definitely planned for her to film with me much more in like a supportive kind of role, not a focus on her. She's right on the cusp, like I said, of going out on her own and she should kind of be able to do

that without everybody knowing everything about her first. I wouldn't want to go to college. Yeah. You know, my first job with everybody already thinking they knew me from TV. And it kind of, obviously, as you've seen, panned out that Gwen became a much bigger part of my story this season. Yeah. And I'm really grateful that Gwen was willing to have that conversation and show up and be so honest about what was happening in our lives. She didn't have to. And it was really her putting a lot of vulnerability out there. And it's been amazing the response. People have been so supportive of her and wonderful to her. And are we the first TV family on reality TV to not have it ruin my child's life?

I mean, like it was great for my child actually. People love her. People think she's to die for. Yeah. I mean, hopefully it stays that way. Knock on wood. It's going to say,

where is wood in here? I need a knock on the wood. I think with when somebody joins the show and we're meeting you for the first time, there is always that question of like, kind of we see what's on the surface. We see what you're sort of choosing to share right off the bat. And then like it can take a while to really feel like you're kind of peeling back the layers of someone. And like you said, I think maybe more than you planned, we are kind of getting...

We peeled my layers real quick. We go right to the crux of it. Yeah. It seems like based on some stuff that was on the after show, it seems like there's a little bit of a differing narrative of how that came up on the show. I mean, there's those three sides to any story that chooses those in the middle. I want to be good with Lisa. We're in a tricky place right now. I always want to fix it with her.

I'm always hopeful that we're going to be friends. again. We've been friends a long time before the show. And I adore the baby gorgeous. I especially adore Henry, who is the actual baby gorgeous. Oh, yeah. I take Lisa because I love Henry and Jack and John. But no, I always want to fix it with Lisa. So I always want to give her the benefit of the doubt. We definitely have a different feeling about how that all played out. And we'll talk at the reunion, she and I. Yeah. And by we'll talk at the reunion, I mean, I'll show my text messages. I think like a well-placed receipt can be I don't there's never been a Virgo on Salt Lake City Housewives before

Are you into astrology? So I'm not into anybody else's astrology. I'm into my own. And Virgoes are known for receipts. So we should be clear about that. Good to know. I'm like so out of the astrology game. But I feel like somebody, I'm sure somebody has like analyzed every housewife at some point.

There is an account on Instagram that is into the astrology of housewives. And they message me quite a bit wanting to know like what time of day I was born. and what my mom had before I was when I'm like, I don't know. I don't know what she ate for breakfast the day I was born. Yeah, I think we should be careful with which accounts we DM. I'm not speaking to any DMs. I'm not taking any. My DMs are closed.

Please do not message me. You're like, I heard something happened last year that maybe was a little messy week. Yeah. And as somebody who's been messaged by Reality Vantis, I'm very skeptical of an account. I mean, I think anybody in the state of Utah probably was being DMed at some point. Yeah. Yeah, they had a lot of time on their hands, Reality Vantis. What was it like?

I'm curious for you. coming into this season, knowing kind of everything that went down with all of that, it was such a big moment for all of the women that were in the cast last season. And this year, kind of picking up the pieces, starting fresh a little bit, you, you know, coming in hot at a Valentine's Day party. Like, what was it like knowing kind of that you had this role within the group as somebody knew you were making friendships and meeting people? And how did you kind of approach that?

I wrong. Totally wrong, apparently. Sure. No, I have a lot of sympathy and empathy for them. They've had a rough go of it with friends. I see very clearly now that there's a real hesitation about who they trust and who they let in. And I feel like that's fair after what they've gone through. And maybe I was equal parts the best and worst person to come in because I will just come in real hot and I expect to be part of the group right away. And that I just kind of forced my way in, which maybe was good. if I'd been tentative, maybe we would never have gotten together.

But also it was probably really hard for them that I was trying to jam myself in there when they were like, no new friends. New friends don't work for us. Right. It's tough because it's like knowing that you are like a full time cast member on this TV show. It's like obviously from a human level you want to like get to know people. But also you're like I'm supposed to be here just as much as everyone else. I didn't be punished for Jen and Monica's arms. Like I am not the whipping boy for this.

I'm curious like you. So on the season, you're the. the new housewife, but then also we have Brittany who's in the group and Maley who hasn't been around quite as much. But knowing that you and Brittany kind of didn't get off on the best foot, there was some communication struggles there, let's just say, were you, was it disappointing at all for you that kind of you weren't able to like have like a little bit of a like newbie, you know, dynamic? I really was, I naively was really expecting them to like love me and be so excited I was there. I was so excited to be there with them. I loved all of them. I mean,

that first episode at the Bezos party, watching it back, I am Bobblehead Bronwyn. Everything Lisa and Heather say, I'm like, yes, absolutely. My head was just on a swivel agreeing with everything. Everybody at that table said, I really thought, these are my new besties. Like, Bezos is for everybody. You know what I'm like? We're like all best friends. That was not the case. I was unaware. Yeah. And yeah, Brittany and I didn't get off on the right foot, A foot. there was no scooter that was going to help Britney get to the same place I was going. You know, like we were not going the same direction ever. And there's definitely things that like I don't know that we've explored yet about

Brittany and I. So that's something to look forward to coming. We're very different people. And I definitely got in my feelings about that because I felt like there was this protection for Brittany as like, you know, Heather kept saying she's my friend. Everyone needs to respect her. And I was like, I'm Lisa's friend. Do I get any respect for that?

So yeah, I definitely could. if I could talk to new housewife Brownwood, I would tell her to tone it down a lot. E is in, you know, have a little more respect for everybody's histories. Yeah. Good sleep is everything. That's why Ali's science back support is made with a blend of melatonin

now that the show's airing, kind of, do you feel like you were prepared for what it was going to be? It was everything I thought it was going to be and nothing I thought it was going to be all at the same time. And they're very different beasts. Filming it is very different than watching it back. So I don't know if I have any perspective on watching it back yet because we're very freshly still halfway through watching it back.

And that is an experience that I'm shaping each week as we go along. From the first episode, even to now, I feel like I approach watching myself on TV differently. Yeah. And I hope that continues to evolve into a, you know, less masochistic reading the comments kind of place for me. It's such a, I mean, there's truly like nothing else I feel like that can really compare to like every week you're getting a new 45 minute just like video of yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Trying to navigate.

And the thing that's really interesting is, I don't know what I don't know. So if they filmed something that I wasn't invited to or their confessionals, I'm seeing that and processing that while understanding that the whole world has seen that at the same time. So it's not just, oh, my friend and I are not getting along and I'm really sad about it. But it's my friend and I are not getting along and I'm sad about it.

And she's kind of saying really aggressive things about me. And everyone is watching her say these really, like it's so many layers deep. Yeah, it really is. And I'm sure you've, I mean, I'm sure you've like picked up on kind of the social media like game of it all this season. But like with the fans, I think sometimes the dial can swing so widely from week to week or even from, you know, scene to scene where it's like, I think, I mean, by and large, I think people are really enjoying you on this season. But then it's like, if you say one thing that somebody doesn't agree with, then it's like, wait, do we hate her? And it's, you know, you have to kind of like step back. a little bit. Do I hate myself sometimes when I wash it back? I mean, I'm part of that swing. I think

that's relatable. I'm part of that swing. You know, I'm really more concerned with what happens with me and the ladies. I tried really hard to be myself at all times and pretend like the cameras weren't there. So I think what you see is me really being sad or frustrated or like hurt that I'm not making certain progress with some of them or that we're having this falling apart, Lisa and I. And that's kind of paramount to me as can we fix this, can we repair that? I can't dispute that it's not awkward to watch people weigh in on how you handle an argument with your friends. But I'm much more, like, I feel the weight much more of the friendships that are and are not happening than the judgment about them.

That's probably the right approach. That's where I'm trying to stay in that frame. Yeah. I think your dynamic with Heather that we've seen so far this season seems like kind of an interesting one where like kind of in, I don't know, the second or third episode of the season, it almost took you by surprise that it was like. Like, oh, wait, I thought we were. Did you see my soul leave my body at that rope's course?

You were like, because it seemed like you guys had sort of been, I mean, maybe not having like a deep soul connection, but like you were getting along. I shared a JBC with her at Wendy's. Yeah. We talked shit in that car. Like, I thought we were together. Wendy's car ride that you guys took. That was the first time I've ever been to a Wendy's drive-thru. I do not have a deal with Wendy's.

So that was my first junior bacon cheeseburger. Lisa Barlow's got like the Wendy's platinum card or whatever. I guess. I don't know. Yeah. But it was. It was a surprise to me when she was so upset. How shady can I be?

It was a surprise to me. She was upset because, hello, it was a conversation, not an open mic night, as I said. I was not ranting and raving in a vacuum. We all said shady things in that car.

Right. But also a surprise because I didn't leave the car thinking that she disagreed with me or was offended. And I know Heather to be very kind of forthright. So if she had a problem, I would have expected her to say it to me that day. Yeah.

But I did like, I'd like to. the reveal of it at the ropes course, I just wish it would have been a reveal about someone other than me. You know, I was not prepared for that. You're like, good move. Yeah. I was like, if you had said this about anyone else at this table, I would be like, yes, I'm living for this. Catch her out. Yeah. Yeah. I didn't love it so much. This episode is brought to you by Splash Refresher. There's never a dull moment in the Bravo world where everyone is either fabulous, chaotic, iconic, or they're trying to be.

And it's pretty obvious when someone is thirsty for the spotlight. We all get a little thirsty, especially when the drama revs up and splash refresher helps keep you hydrated so you're ready for whatever might happen next. It's delicious, bright, flavorful, and zero calories. I don't have to think about what I'm going to reach for when I'm thirsty because obviously it's splash refresher. Today we're going to get back into which housewives are in the splash zone. Who's in the hot seat and who is making the biggest splash in the bravo sphere this week? Now, when I was thinking about this week's splash zone segment, I just kept coming back to something that I know I talked about last week, but I think, but I think that we are not done with the sort of ripple effect of this whole pregnancy prank on Roney last

week because the way that the audience has responded to this. And I kept seeing, I recorded Wednesday morning after that episode had aired. And already, of course, Andy had gone on watch what happens live and had sort of complained publicly about the sort of prank storyline aspect. Jeff Lewis had also voiced his discontent with that storyline. And really, people are big mad about this. I mean, myself included, it just obviously, it didn't land in the context of the episode. Like, it didn't spark any joy watching the show in and of itself. And obviously, I talked about this last week. The thing that I didn't even really get into, which I had thought about before, but then I've seen so many people commenting about and bringing up, which is an amazing

point, is that, like, not only did the prank, not like, it wasn't funny, it wasn't fun, but like a specifically a prank about somebody being pregnant, it's just kind of a bad look. It's sort of insensitive, especially when you consider on this very show, you have women who are going through their own pregnancy or like trying to conceive journeys. Jessel is at this dodgeball game talking about how she cannot conceive naturally and is considering whether or not to do IVF with these embryos that they have to have another baby. Aaron, we know now. She announced her pregnancy last week. This is like an active topic within this group. And so the idea that people like Aaron and Rebecca who are in this world both have children, Aaron clearly having another child, they are wealthy women in New York who are like in their 30s and 40s. It's unimaginable to me that they wouldn't know many people who are going through lots of complicated fertility journeys and struggles and ups and downs and things. like that. So taking out the whole question of like, is this a good storyline of the prank? It's also just like,

why would you think that it's funny to make a joke about somebody getting pregnant and like the ramifications of that? It's just like so weird on so many levels. And then getting off the soapbox, it wasn't fun to watch. And now it feels like we have the whole rest of the season left to go. And it's like, where are we even going? I had a lot of time for Rebecca Minkov last week talking about all the the things that have frustrated me with what she's doing on the show. But like, in general, it's just like, the thirst is real. Like, it's, it, it feels a word grasping at straws for anything. And like, not the good kind of straws where you're like drinking something yummy. But that is, that is Susan the Splash Zone this week. It was not a difficult decision. And I mean,

I always am an optimist when it comes to housewives shows and seasons and things being entertaining. But like, right now, it's, it's not looking good. But thank you to our. sponsor splash refresher available in five craveable flavors wildberry assay grape pineapple mango lemon and mandarin orange splash refresher is there to satisfy your need for hydration with a little flavor there's a little something for everyone to enjoy and i personally have been mixing it up lately with the pineapple mango flavor that was maybe the last one that i tried like i you know i've i've been into my wild berry i like the lemon i like the mandarin orange but the pineapple mango it's a little surprising it's very refreshing and i personally highly recommend it so consider your

That's why you rack. Girl, winter is so last season. And now Springs got you looking at pictures of tank tops with hungry eyes. Your algorithm is feeding you cutoffs. You're thirsty for the sun on your shoulders. That perfect hang on the patio sundress. Those sandals you can wear all day and all night. And you've had enough of shopping from your couch.

Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope? It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. Obviously, you guys had that when she came to your house before the trip to Palm Springs. And that was kind of, I don't know, a last chance at something. But I'm wondering, talking about the idea of watching the show, like watching that scene back, did you have any sort of notes for past Bronwyn of like how you would have handled that?

Of course, yeah. I thought leading with, I don't, I want to fix this. Obviously, I was wrong. I thought taking some ownership of you were. messy, so I was messy to prove that you were messy. Look, I understand the logic of that is trifling. I do. I did not need to be hypocritical to point out that everybody else is hypocritical, although in the moment I did think that was real smart of me. So I tried to lead with the willingness of an apology. I probably could have been much clearer about saying specifically, I am so sorry.

I'm genuinely sorry. I think saying I want to apologize and how can we get to an apology felt close enough for me but not for Heather. And I can see that as I watch that back. But I also do feel for the Bronwyn in that conversation who was like, I'm really trying and how much do I have to try with somebody I don't really know who's mad at me for having harsh opinions, but you kind of have a harsh opinion about me right now. Yeah.

Like measure us with the same stick. If I can't have a harsh opinion about Whitney who I don't know, how can you call me terrifying if you don't know me? So, I mean, I've learned, but I'm also still definitely digging my heels in. Yeah. I think there is something kind of getting used to the rhythm of interactions and like how much certain words can be weighed and remembered and called back upon that it's like, oh, well, like, you said this specific thing six weeks ago.

And so right now what you're saying, like, it feels like there can be a very like calculational. Yes. That's not a word. But, you know. It's a word for me. I know what you mean. And I definitely have a duality of, there is a part of me that wants to just. be like, okay, I'm so sorry.

Let me own my part in it. Maybe that's like the best way to lead with this. But it also can flip really quick. And Heather was kind of like doing this head shake and laughing at me and very judgy. And so yeah, my red flag is that if you want to play that way, I can play that way too. So I think you even see in that conversation with Heather this switch of like, I did start with kind of a demure, cutesy, mindful little voice. And then when she was saying whatever, I kind of was like, actually here's what we're not

going to do. Yeah. It can change real quick with me. Also knowing that it's like the end, the end result of that conversation was going to be either she's coming on your anniversary trip or she's not. And like at a certain point, you must kind of be thinking like, okay, now I don't really want you on this trip right now if this is the energy you're bringing. So at a certain point, it's like, okay, we can put a pin in it here and maybe come back to it later.

I think I felt like Heather needed to kind of understand that I didn't like the way she'd spoken about my marriage if she was coming on an anniversary trip. Yes. And it was a very small comment about it's stupid not to have a pre-up, and I probably could have let it go. But it felt like on the heels of Brittany calling me a gold digger at that dinner and then you kind of talk about pre-up talk, I know what we're doing here. It wasn't an innocent question. It's a extension of what your friend Brittany is already making an accusation about. So just back off from that accusation and you can see my husband and I on a trip. Yeah.

And then when it sounded like she didn't really like me that much either, I was like, then you don't need to come. Yeah. You think Todd's stupid. You don't really like me. I'm terrifying. Palm Springs is not really for you. Yeah. And I think, I mean, based on how that trip played out, which we'll talk about, but I mean,

your husband is somebody who has his own stuff going on. He doesn't need this show. He doesn't need all of the, you know, like he's participating. And I think we always like when the husbands participate. But like he doesn't, if Heather's going to be at the trip making. I like the husbands. I invited the husbands. Exactly.

But like if you feel like you're getting an energy that Heather's going to come on this trip and make digs or whatever, it's like that's not what you. you want, that's definitely not what Todd wants. Yeah, I thought I was being so smart eliminating what I thought was going to be the problem. Little did I know, if Heather had come, they couldn't have FaceTimed her. I would never have had a problem with Lisa. If Heather had just been there. Oh, yeah.

In effect, I caused the vortex that like threw the whole trip off. Well, I should have had Heather come and FaceTime Lisa. I think it's like the devil you know versus the devil you don't. Like if Heather was on that trip, something else would have happened. It's the devil you know versus the devil they FaceTime. That's what you were looking for there. Yes. You're, I'm not, your word, not mine.

But I think, I think that trip was so interesting. Because first of all, it's you kind of getting your feet wet as like the host for the group. But also, doing a couple's trip is is not common on this show, on housewives in general. We don't see that many of them. Like, I think that was, it was really fun to see kind of the combination. Just the ladies are dramatic enough. Yes. There's enough going on.

I had no idea the husbands were going to level up. I mean, Seth and Sean. and Justin and Jay, like John Jason, John and Todd, I mean, the husbands, they clocked it. They punched in too. They have things to say. I was really laughing when they were like, I thought we agreed. We weren't going to do this after Angie's party. And it's like, well, Seth wasn't at Angie's party.

So he's not. So they weren't on part of that agreement, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. It was fun to see everyone together. Fun. I mean, fun and I don't know how fun it was for you. The top gun part was fun.

Yes. Yeah. So like from a scale of one to 10, like that trip that was kind of your. baby, like how do you feel overall like it went, knowing that there were some... I mean, I probably wouldn't have a sibling for that trip if we're calling it my baby. That might be a one and done for me on the couple's trips. I love these ladies. I love their husbands on and off camera.

I could be convinced that maybe it would be better next time, but somebody should talk me out of it. I mean, I could see myself being like, we could try again. If you give yourself long enough, you kind of forget the hard parts. Yeah. We're not there yet. But maybe, maybe next year. Yeah, I mean, you guys are, there's a lot of travel on this season.

I mean, you already went to Milwaukee. You had the trip to Palm Springs. There's the Mexico trip later in the season. Like, what was that like for you just kind of being new to the group still? You're still kind of getting to know everyone. And all of a sudden it's like I'm going away with these women three times in the span of a few months. It's a lot of travel. And I feel better when I was, when we were filming things in Salt Lake and I could kind of go home to my touchstone.

my dogs, my husband and my daughter, my own bed, you know, all the like little acuchaman that I have at my house, my normal ablution routine. You know, I have like an 87-step skincare situation at night, you know, whatever. That feels a little bit easier to come back and film the next day. And I think you see that in the preview. We all get to Mexico and it's a full exorcism. Like the preview is very realistic, maybe not even as explosive as what's to come still.

We needed a touchstone in Mexico. Like everybody needed, we needed the husband's, Mexico, not to be in the argument, but to be in the hotel room being like, calm down. You need like to pull yourselves together. Coach you and then send you back out onto the field. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know coached job, but I know he was big on pep talks. Like maybe he should be giving us pep talks through all of this. It was a lot in Mexico. Yeah. I think, I mean, it's a, it's a new setting. I think, I mean, this franchise has never, I think, had a chill trip, but. Never. Never. I mean,

I don't know that I'll ever get a sprinter ban ever again in my life. They're very scary with this group of women. Before we wrap up, I'm just curious. We have a good chunk of the season left to go. But I'm wondering in your first season, is there anything that you feel like you didn't get to share or that maybe didn't make the show that you feel like is kind of important for people to know about you? Sure. I mean, I wouldn't say it's anybody's fault, but my own. But because of the way I was kind of navigating these relationships, I don't think you see such a fun side of me. I can be really silly and kind of zany.

And I'm usually the first one to be like, we should find a way to like laugh and move on or like do something stupid. and kind of get ourselves back into a good place. And I was really struggling with the, you know, feeling of fractured in my friendship with Lisa and in this at the same time trying to get to know other ladies. So I think you see because I really was kind of holding really tightly to like, how do I fix this? Where do I go from here? And I wish you got to see other than the airport montage of my costumes, kind of the dumb side of me.

You know, the one that's willing to be really ridiculous. That took me by surprise. And I think I was not alone that I was like, okay. So it's not just couture. We have a full costume. Inflatables too. Closet. Yeah.

Mascot heads. The whole works. Yeah. And I'm always kind of the one in my family. You know, I have tons of nieces and nephews. And Aunt B is kind of the fun aunt. She's the cool aunt. My sister's a vegan.

I take her kids to McDonald's. Like I get to be kind of the rebellious aunt for my nieces and nephews. And in, you know, this pairing of me Todd and Gwen as a little trio, I'm always the first one to be like, we need to break the ice. We need to make a joke. You know, there's a ridiculous story where I once ran myself over with. a golf cart in Mexico because I was trying to make Todd and Gwen laugh. It's very tricky to run yourself over with a golf cart.

We'll talk. We'll get that next time. But I love to be kind of like the silly one. Yeah. And I didn't, I was, it's my fault. I was really navigating some tricky waters and fighting for my life. I felt like a couple times or fighting for my friendships. I think this is a better way to say that.

And so you don't get to see this kind of easy, breezy, fun, Bronwyn. Well, maybe next season. Maybe we'll get more time. Hopefully. Let's all figure it out. reunion, work it out of the remix, and then next season we can have a good time. Brade each other's hair and wear a costume or two. Yes.

Can you imagine if I got all of them in inflatables? I can't. I can't. Lisa Barlow would not wear that. Just, just. Lisa Barlow, I will forgive you any in all sins if you put one of my inflatables on. And she will say no. Broadwin, thank you so much for being here. It's been so fun to get to know you on the show.
