The Real Housewives of Dallas star Brandi Redmond exposed her raw feelings during the show’s reunion when she described how heartbreaking it was to see a viral video of her husband kissing another woman.
“I’m disappointed that I know when that happened,” she told host Andy Cohen of the “RHOD” special that aired Tuesday night. “It was in Las Vegas during a double stag / hen party for my sister and brother-in-law.”
She then added, “But yeah, I’m extremely disappointed” before bursting into tears as her co-stars watched helplessly.
The video, which Brandi said was shot in 2018, surfaced in March and features a man who appears to be Bryan. His arms are around another woman in a club and she is invited to a kiss once.
Cohen asked Brandi if she planned to stay with Bryan, her high school sweetheart, to whom she has been married since 2003. They have four children: daughters Brooklyn, 11, Brinkley, 9 and Brilynn, 2 months, and a son, Bruin, 2.
“I’ll tell you this has been the craziest year and my darkest hour,” said Redmond tearfully.

“This man was there for me and is there for me, so I feel like I would really be part of st if I wasn’t there for him because he is hurting too much right now.”
Brandi said the worst part of the debacle was that a fan posted the video to one of her daughters’ private Instagram accounts for her to see.
“As much as I can be angry and all, this is her father and I have a feeling that it’s just … not okay,” she exclaimed.
Brandi, 42, appeared via video chat while sitting next to Kary Brittingham on the flight from Dallas to New York, and Brittingham, 50, tested positive for coronavirus upon arrival in the Big Apple.
Her castmates all expressed their support for Brandi. Her best friend, Stephanie Hollman, told Cohen that although she hadn’t spoken to Bryan directly about the video, she was angry with his behavior.
“She’s been through so much,” she said. “I was honestly afraid that she would harm herself, so I had a good friend of mine [check on her] … because I thought, “You have to go to her because I can’t get a grip on her”, because each of us has been pretty much traveling. It was spring break.
“And then he said he went into the baby room, it was pitch black and she’s sitting in the corner just holding her baby and yelling and it just broke my heart. Like I broke my heart “
Brandi concluded by saying that she believes someone re-launched the video to hurt her. Some of her co-stars suggest Leanne Locken as the culprit. Locken denied any involvement in social media.
At the beginning of the episode, Redmond had broken down the timeline of her pregnancy with Brilynn, stating that she gave birth in February, which meant she was pregnant – and drank – throughout the season.
“We started filming and I was probably two weeks pregnant,” said Brandi. “And when I found out I was pregnant it was my first trimester, so yeah.”
Brandi added that during her annual gynecological visit she found out she was pregnant and that her pregnancy was a “miracle” because she had previously been told she was pre-menopausal and the chances of getting pregnant again, are low.
“She came in and told me this – she said, ‘You came back positive that you were pregnant. ‘Then she scans my tummy and I see a baby on the screen. I have a panic attack and my doctor says, “Brandi, this is amazing! Thats a wonder! But I have to ask, isn’t that Bryan? ‘And I said,’ What? No! This is Bryans! ‘And she said,’ Okay, I only made it happen because you seem upset about it. ‘
Brandi then explained to her doctor that she had not properly taken care of herself or her baby, but luckily, Brilynn was born in excellent health.
