Braunwyn Windham-Burke from The Real Housewives of Orange County is still married, but has revealed that she is dating, “someone special.”
The rookie is going into her second year in the franchise and it looks like it may be a difficult one. Her co-star Emily Simpson recently revealed that the rest of the RHOC crew decided to unfriend her since they did not feel she was genuine. Braunwyn has also had issues at home, including her daughter acting out, not to mention multiple divorce rumors.
According to Us Weekly, the housewife is not currently living with her husband, Sean Burke. Braunwyn Windham-Burke has been in the news as of late, due to rumors that she and Sean are divorcing. They have split up in the past, and many believe that she is now seeing the woman she is so often pictured with on her social media. However, Braunwyn and her husband are happily redefining their marriage and they are over what the haters have to say. Some of their definition includes spending time apart from one another. The 52-year-old housewife confirmed that her husband was not currently living in their main house with her, saying he was: “not living here right now.” Braunwyn Windham-Burke went on to say that she still loved him dearly and revealed that they “haven’t gotten along this well in a long time. We’re redefining what marriage means to us. We’re not following the old, antiquated rules anymore.” Bravo fans may be a little confused, but the couple is still acting like a couple and sharing photos together on their social media accounts. Viewers will know from her first season that the couple tried threesomes and experimented with open marriage.
Now, the mother of seven is opening up even more, by telling fans: “There’s someone in my life right now that makes me happy and I smile just thinking about, but I kinda want to protect it right now. I’m not quite ready to put it all out there, everyone in my life that knows me knows what’s happening. I don’t think I’ve smiled so much. It’s good. I know if you look at social media, it seems really like crazy, but things are really good in our house right now.”
All this news comes like a whirlwind to the Bravo nation, but Braunwyn made sure to let fans know she was okay. She said, “I’m not going to worry about the future until it happens. I love Sean. Sean loves me. We have every intention of staying together. We are very honest in our communication. There are just some things that I have discovered about myself that I wanna explore a little more and he’s very supportive. He understands and, you know, I am living a very authentic life right now and I’ve never given myself permission to do that.”
Bravo viewers want to wish all the best to the couple and are hoping they will see some of the drama play out on tonight’s all-new episode. Currently, Shannon Beador and Kelly Dodd are still at odds, with Braunwyn playing the matchmaker.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Wednesday at 8 pm EST on Bravo.
