What went down on episode 3 of Real Housewives of Dubai season 2?
Brook's remark on Stanbury
While Stanbury and her husband Sergio were ready to move houses, a packing Stanbury reminisced the time when Brooks called her a "c*nt" at Taleen's party, in a previous episode. A flashback followed, wherein Chanel told her that Brooks called her a "bad bad name".
At Brook's end, when she was hanging out with Sara, and Taleen, she brought up the time when she called Stanbury a "c*nt," and laughed about it. In a confessional, Taleen asked a producer if the moment was recorded, and they said yes.
Stanbury's 'Good Riddance Party'
On the occasion of Stanbury and Sergio finally moving, their friend Michael gave them a 'Good Riddance Party' which was attended by most of the cast, except Brooks, who was uninvited by Stanbury.
At the party, Taleen introduced a new member to the Real Housewives of Dubai group— Saba. The party also saw Sergio pulling Sara aside for a conversation, where he told her that he felt invisible in Stanbury's eyes. Sara consoled him and gave him a tight hug. In a fun moment later at the party, Sara pushed Sergio into the pool.
Sara went out on a date while Lesa met up with her mom
Real Housewives of Dubai episode 3 finally saw Sara getting ready to go on a date with Daniel, Taleen's friend. Her little son wasn't too excited because he thought all men were bad. Sara sat him down to explain that wasn't the case and promised him that she was going to make good choices, not just for herself but for him as well.
The scene cut to Lesa going to Old Dubai with her mother. When they sat down for lunch, Lesa asked her when she was moving to Dubai. She then explained in a confessional that they had discovered a whole new family her father had in Canada. They weren't having it, and so were considering moving her mother to Dubai.
Sara's first date with Daniel was a double date alongside Taleen and her husband Raffi. After Daniel showed up late, he was thoroughly interrogated. He couldn't speak much Arabic, he hadn't gone to jail or court, and he did believe in aliens. However, Sara wasn't too keen on him because he was a libra.
Stanbury and Brooks confronted each other
When they decided to meet up for lunch, Brooks recalled Stanbury's tiff with Taleen last season. Stanbury said that as Taleen had moved on, so she should too.
In a confessional on Real Housewives of Dubai, Brooks revealed the real reason for her sourness towards Stanbury. She said that in the last season, she stood up for Stanbury and stopped talking to Lesa for her, but Stanbury had now started being friendly with the same woman, which was putting Brooks off.
New episodes of Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 come out on Tuesdays, on Bravo, at 9 pm ET.
