Kelly Dodd’s brother, Eric Meza, has broken his silence following the release of a disturbing voicemail in which Kelly harshly criticizes her 19-year-old daughter, Jolie Dodd. In a series of videos posted on social media, Eric shared his thoughts on the matter, expressing relief that the “truth prevailed.”

In the voicemail, the former star of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” can be heard making disparaging remarks about Jolie, referring to her as a “dumb little girl” and suggesting she is mentally ill. Eric conveyed his dismay over the incident, highlighting what he perceives as a pattern of behavior from his sister.

“You can clearly see how she projects her issues onto others, including me, our mother, Jolie, and even her nieces and nephews,” Eric shared in his video. “There’s an evident negativity that seems to pour from her, and it’s become apparent to everyone just how black her heart can be.”

He further expressed his disbelief at Kelly’s actions toward her own daughter, stating, “It’s hard to fathom that she would treat Jolie like that. I’ve been trying to warn people, but she’s always tried to pin the blame on me, painting me as the villain. However, the real culprit has been revealed, and now the truth is out.”

“It’s pretty incomprehensible that she would even do something like that to her own daughter, but I’ve been trying to tell everybody about that, but she’s been projecting that onto me, trying to make me look like the bad guy, but we all know who the bad guy really is. So the truth comes out,” he continued.

According to Eric, Jolie is surrounded by love from him and his mom, as well as from other family members, including his niece, his nephew, and his brother.

“Everybody can see the truth’s in the pudding, and a lot of people are saying she has a black heart. It’s emotional, physical abuse, mental abuse, all of it. So you can see right through it. She’s got some serious problems. She’s the one that has the serious mental illness. It’s not Jolie, obviously,” he clarified. 

Eric then said that Kelly was “severely mentally ill.”

In another video, Eric requested that social media users respect Jolie’s privacy.

“[Jolie]’s getting a lot of DMs of people messaging her, ‘Why would you post that video of your mother abusing you and why are you vaping?’” he said. “Please respect her privacy. It’s really uncalled for and very childish. She’s the most private person you’ll ever meet in your entire life. She has the biggest heart, the best soul. She’s smart. She’s the most lovable person in the world. She’s kindhearted, and she’s not vindictive whatsoever.”

“She’s the antithesis of her mother. She is literally an angel. She’s got a beautiful soul,” he added.

@bravohousewivesallday People please leave Jolie alone, she blocked her mother Kelly Dodd for that very reason who then chose to leave a voice message on her friends phone, the message that was posted everywhere #RHOC #bravotv #realhousewivesoforangecounty #wwhl #kellydodd ♬ original sound – Bravo Housewives all day
