Scandal Breaks: Rulla’s Husband’s Alleged Mistress Defends Affair as Intentional

23

Brian Pontarelli’s purported romantic partner, Beth Walker, has denied claims that their involvement was a mere “mistake,” countering remarks made by Rulla Pontarelli in an upcoming episode of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.

In a fiery dispute captured in a sneak peek, Rulla, 46, clashes with Jo-Ellen Tiberi, 38. The exchange turns explosive as Rulla hurls insults, calling Jo-Ellen a “f*cking sl*t” and “wh*re.” Jo-Ellen responds by branding Rulla as “trash.” Amidst the chaos, Beth Walker steps forward, asserting that her relationship with Brian, 49, was not a mistake but a deliberate choice, even as Rulla confronts a fan who highlighted Brian’s infidelity.

“You’re a f*cking slut! That’s all you are, and the whole f*cking state knows it!” Rulla shouts at Jo-Ellen in a scene shared by Bravo on Instagram, teasing the drama in the episode airing on June 28.

“You know what? Guess what? Your husband’s a sl*t!” Jo-Ellen fires back as Rulla accuses her of “sleeping with doctors” and gets up from the couch.

“I don’t know what’s bigger, your mouth or what’s between your legs,” Rulla states.

“You’re f*cking nuts,” Jo-Ellen replies. 

Still, Rulla presses on, claiming the entire cast knows that Jo-Ellen is a “f*cking wh*re” and demanding Jo-Ellen leave her husband out of the conversation.

Then, when Jo-Ellen suggests that Rulla “can’t even admit that” Brian cheated, Rulla insists she had.

“It’s already been admitted. We already know he did what he did. He’s not a wh*re. He made a mistake, bad mistake, and a series of choices,” she explains.

Liz McGraw, 55, also gets in on the action, accusing Jo-Ellen of having bad intentions for exposing Brian’s reported relationship with Beth.

“Here’s the thing: I started off with good intentions. I started off being nice,” Jo-Ellen states, prompting Rulla to label her “trash.”

“I don’t talk to trash,” Rulla shares.

“You are trash,” Jo-Ellen replies.

After the clip was shared, Beth surfaced in a comment, defending the time she spent with Brian.

“2.5 years is not ‘a mistake’ let’s be honest.. it’s very intentional,” she wrote.

Also on Instagram, after Rulla and Brian were seen in a photo together, a fan wrote, “Now just replace Rulla with one of the mistresses and it’ll be accurate.”

In response, Rulla called the person out, writing, “You’re not funny nor are you accurate with what you are [alluding] to. We don’t need comments like this here prompting negativity or misleading information.”

The Real Housewives of Rhode Island season one reunion concludes on Sunday, June 28, at 9/8c on Bravo.
