Fans of the Real Housewives of Orange County have called for Kelly Dodd to be fired after she was seen in the show's season 15 trailer. Real Housewives of Orange County premieres on Wednesday, October 7 on Bravo, and the cast will still include the very controversial Kelly Dodd.
This past summer, Kelly was slammed for several insensitive social media remarks. Former Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamara Judge called for Kelly Dodd's firing in June, after Kelly's unfiltered social media post for Gay Pride Month fell flat. She was accused of making her Instagram post about herself rather than supporting and promoting Gay Pride Month. She was also accused of being a racist after a TMZ video of Kelly from 2016 surfaced. In the video, a very inebriated Dodd was caught on camera saying she didn't "like" or "know any black guys".
According to All About The Tea, many fans chimed in on Bravo's Instagram after they posted a picture of the cast that included Kelly Dodd. Remarks included threats of fans banning the show if Dodd stays. She was called a "hateful racist". Another commenter posted that the Bravo network needs to "GET HER OUT".
Kelly joined Real Housewives of Orange County in Season 11 and has been making a splash ever since. She is currently engaged to Fox correspondent Rick Leventhal and has made bold remarks about her upcoming nuptials. Kelly was quoted questioning the validity of her wearing white on her wedding day when she admits her "whole life" is about having sex. How does Dodd's 14 year-old-daughter feel hearing that? Who wants a mom that brags about sexual activity and also seems to focus more on herself than those around her?
For now, it appears RHOC producers will not be making any changes to the popular hit reality show, Real Housewives of Orange County. That might change if Dodd continues to make insensitive remarks publicly? The network has fired several other cast members of other reality shows after unwelcome remarks were uncovered. This will be only Dodd's 4th season on the hit show, so why would the network risk losing viewers over someone who is so problematic?
The Real Housewives of Orange County premieres on Bravo Wednesday, October 7.
