The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 episode 12 was released on August 27, 2024, on Bravo TV. In the episode, Lesa launched her new skincare line, but it rubbed some of the ladies in the wrong way, making them uneasy. Lesa then confronted Caroline Brooks about her comment, and Taleen was there to worsen the situation.
Lesa asked Brooks what her issue was with her Mina Roe launch. The Glass House spa owner, Brooks, responded and said she had a conflict of interest with the launch because it was branded like a spa, and the location clashed with her outlet. Lesa apologized to Brooks if it hurt her before Taleen stepped in to add to the heated argument. Taleen said she also felt the branding was the problem.
Later, in her The Real Housewives of Dubai episode confessional video, Lesa said the ladies were searching for something in her big event to be mad at, and they were all just jealous of her.
"Now, this year, I put on a perfect event, and they go searching for something to be mad at."
She then added,
"These girls are all just jealous of me."
The Real Housewives of Dubai cast clash over Lesa's Mina Roe launch
The Real Housewives of Dubai cast member Taleen's issue with Lesa's branding was that it went too far, and Mina Roe's loge covered up the name of the actual spa behind it. However, Chanel Ayan had a different opinion about the launch. She told Taleen that Lesa had the right to throw her party wherever she wanted and they should support her instead of coming after her for a launch party.
Taleen then clarified that she was coming for nobody and warned Lesa to talk things out about the event with Brooks. Later, in her confessional, Taleen revealed that after the Heart and Soul event, she received calls from Brooks freaking out. She said Brooks sounded upset by the event.
Taleen added that she had to speak up for The Glass House spa owner when the conversation was brought up and had to tell Lesa about the state Brooks was coming from.
After seeing Taleen coming at her, Lesa shifted her focus to Taleen and started attacking her with words. Lesa told Taleen she does not have a business, so she doesn't understand how things work. Lesa then explained that when someone hosts a business event, they have to plaster the business logo everywhere.
While the drama in The Real Housewives of Dubai ensued, Stanbury decided to take no one's side and stay quiet. She said in her confessional that nothing she said would be right on either side, so she was "mute" and decided to focus on refilling her champagne instead. Stanbury wanted to leave the drama but couldn't sidestep toward the door.
Lesa added that if one goes to a Mina Roe event, "you will see Mina Roe everywhere." When Taleen asked Lesa to lower her voice, the Mina Roe owner said she didn't want to because Taleen was getting on her nerves.
Sara explained Lesa's situation in her The Real Housewives of Dubai confessional and said:
"When people can't control themselves, they try to control their environment, and when the environment gets out of control, they get angry and aggressive. And that's what was happening to Lesa."
Brooks decided it was enough and stepped in to cool down the situation. She told Lesa that they had expressed their feelings and should move.
The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 episode 13, Betfriends for Never, will be released on September 03, 2024, on Bravo TV.
