"I'm lost" — The Real Housewives of Dubai fans react to Lesa vs. Taleen in season 2 episode 4

The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 premiered episode 4, titled, Drama Queens, on June 25, 2024. During the segment, fans saw Taleen and Lesa get into an argument over an incident where Taleen had pulled Caroline Stanbury away for a private chat during a group gathering.

Their conversation was about Sergio and Caroline's relationship as the former opened up about feeling upset over some jokes that Caroline's children made at his expense.

Coming back to the girls' argument, Taleen didn't think it was appropriate to bring her private talk (with Caroline) in front of the rest of the cast, but Lesa wanted to know what they spoke about. When Taleen asked Lesa to move on from the situation, she called her a "b*tch."

The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 fans took to social media to react to the whole situation, wiith one person commenting on X:

"I blinked and Lesa and Taleen were arguing. Let me rewind, chile. Cuz, I'm lost! #RHODubai."

"Lesa will always be my girl but I feel like something is bubbling. Like something is waiting to explode as we saw a bit tonight with her vs Taleen. I am happy she is way more activated and making her voice be heard. And looking the most stunning as usual. #RHODubai," a fan wrote.

"Taleen was being overly defensive when questioned and Lesa overreacted with her response. Fair exchange is no robbery. That was a little tiff that I’m sure they were able to easily move beyond," another netizen commented.

Lesa noted in a confessional that she didn't think it was right of Taleen to have a private conversation with Stanbury. It was because Taleen was close friends with Brooks, who recently had a feud with Stanbury. However, The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 fans credited Taleen for the same:

"I give Taleen credit for pulling Stanbury aside for what easily could have been an awkward conversation. Not sure why Lesa turned it into such a big deal #rhodubai," an X user wrote.

"Lesa blew that out of proportion with Taleen. She escalated that for no reason. I'm on Taleen's side here — she was respectful by pulling Stanbury aside and it's none of her business what they discussed. #RHODubai," a fan wrote online.

"I spoke too soon, Lesa is on the same bs from season 1 smh. She literally came at Taleen crazy and made herself upset because she couldn’t mind her own business. This whole don’t talk that person because we’re friends is so late #rhodubai," another fan mentioned.

The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 fans also commented on Lesa calling Taleen a "b*tch":

"While I don’t think Lesa needed to drop the B word, I completely understand her point. It WAS weird for Taleen (whom Brooks, her best friend, and just introduced to the group) is taking the girl that the person she is BEEFING with to the side to chat? #RHODubai," a fan wrote.

"Lesa I’m sorry you were wrong for calling Taleen a b*tch #RHODubai," another fan commented on X.

Taleen and Lesa clash in The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 episode 4

In the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2, the cast gathered for Ayan's Queens' dinner. During the gathering, Taleen pulled Caroline aside for a chat to talk about her relationship with Sergio.

Caroline discussed with Taleen that Sergio once had a talk with Taleen's husband (Rafael) about feeling disrespected by some of the jokes cracked on him by Caroline's children. After the conversation, the two returned to the dinner table and Lesa enquired what they spoke about.

Taleen explained that she was "just looking out for a friend" and didn't understand why everyone wanted to know. Meanwhile, Ayan also wanted to pry what happened. Lesa said that they had questions and wondered why the pair had to have a separate conversation.

"It's out of respect, that's all," Taleen responded.

Lesa told her she understood her point and asked her to move on. Taleen told the fellow contestant to do the same, to which Lesa responded:

"B*tch, I moved on."

Taleen was upset by the words Lesa used and the two got into an argument. Lesa noted that The Real Housewives of Dubai star was being "b*tchy for no reason." When Caroline Brooks asked Lesa to calm down, the latter told her to "control" her friend (Taleen).

Season 2 fans took to social media after the episode aired and chimed in on the situation. They criticized Lesa and praised Taleen for having the discussion with Stanbury in private.
