Overview
- Alicia Carmody told cameras she felt “homeless” as a child after her father sold the family home and she moved in with grandparents, a claim she made on the Real Housewives episode.
- Liz McGraw publicly challenged Alicia’s use of the word “homeless” on Watch What Happens Live and the RHORI After Show, saying her knowledge of Alicia’s childhood was that the family sold a house and moved together into the grandparents’ home.
- On June 7, McGraw revealed she sent rage-filled texts to castmate Jo-Ellen Tiberi after an on-camera fight and said she apologized later to Alicia and to Alicia’s mother.
- Alicia’s stepmother, Sharon Carmody, told Nora Christine Live that Alicia was never homeless and described the family’s moves as a brief relocation for renovations, adding that others close to the family dispute Alicia’s account.
- Cast members and producers now face a credibility contest that the recently taped reunion will likely resolve on screen and that could reshape relationships and the season’s central storylines.
