The former Housewife detailed what she considers a particularly difficult moment while filming the Bravo series in an upcoming episode of Vice’s. The dark side of reality TV series highlighting the popular Bravo franchise.

During the episode, Gunvalson said she thought the cable network went too far in 2015 when they recorded her learning of her mother’s death.

Shedding light on the production of this episode, the former Bravolebrity shared that her family members, including her daughter Briana, called her multiple times to tell her that her mother, Joanne Steinmetz, had passed away. Gunvalson was filming season 10 of the franchise’s launch reality series – playing Bunco at his pal’s house Shannon Beadorat home — during these calls.

His family eventually called the production team to give him a phone call — which, according to a clip obtained by PEOPLEset up Beador’s wrapping paper room with lights and camera operators to film her in real time receiving the emotional phone call.

“I was really upset that production knew for an hour and they didn’t tell me. They crossed the line and I think they should have taken me aside and said, ” Your mother passed away. “Talk to your daughter off camera,” Gunvalson said. “If I was a producer, that’s what I would have done.”

She continued, “Let me scream and cry by myself and be angry. It was very, very traumatic. I will never forgive Bravo for that.”

In her mother’s scene, Gunvalson was seen collapsing to the floor and screaming as she received the fateful phone call. The devastated reality TV star tearfully said she had just spoken to her mother that morning and that Steinmetz was not ill at the time of her death.

She previously spoke about the scene in a 2015 episode of Watch what’s happening live. At the time, she said she had yet to see the episode, but expressed her gratitude to the network and Andy Cohen that Steinmetz was not at the scene and that the cameras did not show his mother on her deathbed.

It’s also worth noting that the businesswoman also said at the time that she wasn’t upset by the scene because it was part of her reality. Gunvalson also noted at the time that she “blacked out” during the call and didn’t remember much about that evening.

“I lost my mother and I committed to exposing all areas of my life, the good and the bad,” Gunvalson said on WWHL. “There were a lot of great moments that aired and there were a lot of moments that I wish weren’t on a reality show. It’s not a moment that I feel, yet , I regret.”

The 62-year-old reality star, who has starred in 14 seasons of the franchise since its debut in 2006, has left RHOC in 2020, but still appears in more recent seasons as a “friend of” the series.
