I thought she did apologize. I recall her saying "If I made it sound that way, I apologize" ... but I could easily be wrong, because I thought Brianna was one of the good ones. It seems that most of the unhappiness with her is about her husband and what a jerk he is (though, God bless him in Afghanistan!) ... and not really about her telling the truth about "Girth" Brooks. I mean, to me he really is the scummiest scumbag on the planet -- he's obviously lying about loving Vicki because he says it happened when he saw her on TV and whatever she is, she is NOT attractive and I just don't believe it. What he saw, IMO, was an easy mark. That may be something you all have discussed -- I really mean it, I DON'T watch this show, LOL. No, he saw easy money and fame ... and he worked it and made it similarly to how Missy Gorga worked her angles for reality tv fame. (Damned for short-sighted goals.)

Maybe infamy feels just like fame ... it must. Because all these people know they have skeletons in their closets, yet they come on reality tv shows.

I'm not upset with Brianna for not supporting her mother because my bar is set high when it comes to motherhood - and a woman who stays with a man who has advocated her daughter being beaten by her husband, is not a good mother. I sort of saw Brianna as fighting for her mother's sanity.

I don't recall Brianna ever being happy. Maybe I'm forgetting something?

And I think Ryan is every bit as scummy as Crooks. And why does Ryan have the only copy of the recording on his phone in Afghanistan? He's a lying liar who lies. The fact that he was off-limits at the reunion is BS. If Brianna is so keen on grilling Crooks, she should be prepared to answer questions about her ass of a husband.

I didn't like Brianna w the couch shit. I loved the way she was with Brooks. Why on earth would that man agree to go on the reunion? He really is a grifter the way he stayed soooo calm.

And Icy I totally agree about him seeing Vicki and her empty love tank as a mark.

Andme, the audio of what Brooks said is available online, IIRC. I listened to part of it and it was a drunk ranting and posturing, but still, very disgusting that his mind/thoughts went to beating "the woman" as a "Southern thing" and what he thought Ryan should do.

So Ryan sent the recording from Afghanistan to a website?

Believe me, I think Crooks is despicable. But I find Ryan equally as despicable. Brianna has no holier than thou ground to stand on.

EXCEPT Ryan married Brianna and is serving in Afghanistan. Crooks abandoned his child and the baby mama and was featured on that NBC show (right?)

I think it was ABC Nightline. At any rate, Crooks had it splattered all over tv.

Ryan gets no pass from me. We saw the way he treated Lydia's mom and lied about it. AND he has a restraining order against him from a previous relationship. He may be worse than Crooks.

Do you really think he did Brianna a gigantic favor by marrying her? And my guess is that Afghanistan is his only option. Ryan would do her a favor if he abandoned her.


Ryan the Douche

The fact that Crooks is despicable makes Ryan no less despicable.

Just watched part 3 of the reunion. I hope there's room on the Brianna is a Twat Couch.
I'm sorry andme. There is no room on the Brianna is a Twat couch because Shopper and I couldn't edge Brianna off the couch. She's taking up the whole thing.

Oh. And she just asked Momo to pass her the King Dons and Ding Dongs so she can try each and tell us the difference.

That's so true andme, although I think it's different varieties. I have no doubt at all that Crooks is/was after Vickie's money and hoping some of her 'fame' would benefit him. Anyone that watched even one season could see how needy Vickie is emotionally and that Donn just wasn't filling up her love tank the way she wanted him too. Easy, easy mark. But just because you can, doesn't mean you should. I give Brianna a pass on her Crooks hate because if Vickster was my mom I would feel the same way.

I don't know why Ryan married Brianna but it wasn't to grift her. Maybe he loved her? Maybe he just thought he could control her. I think Brianna married Ryan because she thought she was in love with him, just came off a terrible cancer scare and did something impulsive without really knowing him. Now, she will be tied to him the rest of her life since the had a baby. Defending him only makes her look bad. She's kind of stuck, for now anyway.

Yeah, Cosmo. And Vicki has been presented with evidence upon evidence that Crooks is bad, but she still seems to care for him. He definitely is a very good con man.

Call me crazy Cosmo, but I feel like women who wait until they are married to have sex end up making decisions 1) way too fast and 2) choosing mates that are wrong for them.

I know this isn't a hard and fast rule, just what I've seen in real life and on the tellie. LOL. Because the tellie IS real life.

Ugh, Heather is such a bore. Everything is planned and acted. Not a spontaneous bone in her body.
"Ok, Terry. Let's talk about this. We need a plotline. How about, I'm a busy wife and mother trying to juggle many roles and have it all, but also to fulfill my potential. And you love me, but you don't realize you're not being as supportive as you could be. We pretend to bicker, maybe even mention divorce to ramp up the drama. And then we resolve it in the end- I'm fulfilled and you've learned something. I just know SO many women in the audience will relate!

"Then of course, showing off the house will help get us a better sale price. And it's all good for your plastic surgery practice as well.

"As long as WE CONTROL THE NARRATIVE and bring the drama, we'll work this reality thing to our benefit."

As for Vicki and Briana-- both mother and daughter are very needy emotionally, and this drives their choice of men. Obviously.
