Amid the scenic allure of an Italian getaway, the latter half of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15 amps up the drama. The latest midseason trailer places Amanda Frances and Dorit Kemsley under the spotlight as tensions rise and friendships hang by a thread.
Whispers of cults and deceit swirl around as suspicions about Frances, the self-proclaimed “money queen” and fresh face in Beverly Hills, intensify. The trailer is peppered with discussions and inevitable confrontations centered on Frances, capturing the audience’s intrigue.
In one scene, Bozoma Saint John remarks, “Amanda is very cunning,” while Rachel Zoe adds, “Who’s behind the curtain?” At a group dinner, the curiosity peaks as the women press Frances for details, saying, “We’re all curious, we want to know about the cult.” Frances, who has candidly shared her past cult experiences, counters with, “We want to talk about the cult right now?”
Subsequently, Erika Jayne appears to advise Frances to “get in [her] car and drive away.” The trailer leaves viewers guessing Frances’s reaction, though it later shows her confiding in Sutton Stracke, questioning, “What kind of woman does this to another woman?”
Concerning female camaraderie, Kemsley faces scrutiny from the group over her conduct. In a private exchange, Stracke confronts Kemsley, saying, “I have witnessed you treat your friends like dirt all summer.” Kemsley’s friendships with Kyle Richards and Jayne also appear to be strained, adding to her challenges.
Once again, Richards and Kemsley’s friendship veers on a downward path, as Saint John informs Kemsley that someone in the group, presumably Richards, is “worried” about her “erratic” moods. The two dish it out on historic steps in Italy as Richards states, “I’m sick of that shit with you, Dorit,” to which Kemsley responds, “I don’t trust you.” Richards snaps back, “I don’t trust you, either.”
A fight between Kemsley and Jayne also breaks out, resulting in Kemsley walking away from a group dinner saying, “I would much rather be alone than around a bunch of fucking bitches.”
In a more vulnerable moment involving Jayne earlier on in the trailer, she tearfully discusses physical violence and alludes to domestic abuse, saying, “There’s a lot of shame around that. Getting hit or choked or kicked.” While we don’t know who Jayne was referring to at this time, it should be noted that she was previously married to disbarred attorney Tom Giardi, who is serving more than seven years in federal prison for embezzling millions of dollars from his clients.
Despite the drama, the latter half of Season 15 also promises to showcase plenty of loving moments between the Beverly Hills ladies, including Saint John’s engagement, a group trip to Italy, and Richards’ daughter’s wedding.
