Drama Unfolds as Caroline Stanbury Ends Explosive Housewarming on Real Housewives of Dubai

Caroline Stanbury was shocked when the ladies exploded at each other during her housewarming party on Tuesday’s episode of The Real Housewives of Dubai.

‘She crossed the wrong person,’ Caroline Brooks, 38, whispered to Sara Al Madani, 41, about Taleen Marie, 36. ‘I defended her against Caroline [Stanbury] and then she goes and sips Caroline’s Kool-Aid.’

‘Fake, fake, fake,’ Brooks said.

‘What does that even mean?’ Taleen said overhearing the comments while seated at Stanbury’s dinner party at her new house with husband Sergio Carrallo.

‘I’m not talking to you,’ Brooks said. ‘I’ll throw my drink right in her ugly face.’

Stanbury got up from the table with Taleen, shocked about the fight that was happening at her housewarming dinner party.

‘She is the quintessential gaslighter passive aggressive,’ Taleen said. ‘This woman called me a beggar.’

Brooks meanwhile told Lesa Milan, 35, at the party that Taleen was a beggar.

‘It was almost a year of begging,’ Brooks said.

‘Shame on you Caroline [Brooks],’ Taleen said. ‘She’s the one who’s been causing the s*** and everyone here knows it. You’re an alcoholic, drop your drink.’

‘Taleen, stop drinking,’ Brooks yelled, walking after her.

‘It’s amazing that you can keep your eyes open right now,’ Taleen said to her.

Taleen’s husband Raffi then got in between Brooks and his wife. He told Brooks to ‘shut her mouth.’

Raffi told Brooks to ‘shut her mouth’ and she had a strong reaction

Stanbury was worried they were arguing next to her $50,000 new Italian white sofa.

‘That sofa is art, you don’t sit on it,’ Stanbury said. ‘My dog sits on it, on his Hermes blanket!’

‘I don’t want Caroline Brooks in my f***ing house,’ Sergio said to Stanbury.

‘Party’s over get the f*** out of my house,’ Stanbury said.



‘Raffi don’t ever disrespect me like that,’ Brooks screamed outside the house.

‘Don’t f*** with me, b****!,’ Raffi hollered back.

A producer got in front of Brooks to make her stop. Sara said in a confessional that you could go to jail in Dubai just for screaming in the street.

‘Taleen you f***ing begging a** b****,’ Brooks yelled. ‘I have all your messages.’

‘You’re a beggar!’ Taleen shouted back at Brooks. ‘You wore my whole wardrobe last season, b****.’

The season two episode titled ‘The Beauty and the Beggar’ opened with Chanel Ayan, 45, holding a launch party for her Ayan beauty and make-up line. Her brother and sister flew over to support her. Her son Taj was walking in her show and she said he already has been signed to IMG Models.

Taleen and her husband Raffi, Stanbury and Sergio, Sara and her friend Saba showed up to support her. Chanel was stressed before the show and was hoping everything would go okay. The models started walking and Sergio was confused.

‘Is this a fashion show or make up?’ Sergio said.

‘I’m so confused,’ Taleen said.

Chanel came out wearing an Egyptian robe and the crowd cheered for her. Leesa showed up late, but Caroline Brooks missed the entire show.

‘The fact that she had to come in just as it’s all over doesn’t surprise me at all,’ Stanbury said in a confessional. ‘Brooks cannot watch other people succeed.’

Raffi said hi to Brooks but Taleen ignored her. Chanel thanked everyone for coming even if they were late.

Sara told Sergio that he fought for Stanbury but didn’t think that she ever fought for her.

‘I don’t think our friendship is back to what it used to be,’ Sara said in a confessional.

Brooks told Taleen that she was a ‘spitfire’ but that she acknowledged her feelings. Sara said that her boyfriend Akin went back to Germany but that she thought she was going to introduce him to her family soon.



Chanel thanked her sister Ifrah and her brother Sadiq for coming to support her.

The next day, Brooks met Sara and Lesa for lunch. Brooks said she felt they were in a good place and wanted to restart all her friendships.

‘When you restart your friendships you realize who is really a friend and who is just an acquaintance,’ Sara said. ‘Me and Caroline [Stanbury] I thought we were friends but I don’t know if we have any friendship.’

‘She’s a little narcissistic,’ Brooks said.

Brooks said she didn’t know if she was going to go to Stanbury’s housewarming party. Brooks said she apologized to Taleen for calling her a ‘beggar.

Lesa asked what Taleen begged her for.

‘She begged me to be in my friendship group,’ Brooks said in a confessional. ‘Taleen begged me to be on television . That is honestly what she begged me for.’



Brooks said she didn’t appreciate Taleen getting closer to Stanbury.

‘Taleen is a hot mess,’ Brooks said.

Chanel set up a beach picnic for her sister Ifrah and brother Sadiq.

‘You were a hustler ever since you were a little girl,’ Ifrah said.

Ifrah said she was proud of Chanel’s launch. Chanel said she wanted to use her power to help bring awareness to stop female genital mutilation.

‘You think I was circumcised and that was the end of it,’ Chanel said in a confessional. ‘No, as a young girl me and Ifrah lay there for weeks. For weeks! I’m a five-year-old lying on the ground, and nobody is coming to clean your wound, to check if you’re okay. Girls die because of a lot of problems. I almost died.’

Lesa went out to dinner with her husband Richard for a date night. Lesa said her kids were her priority and they play football and she takes them five times a week.

‘I feel super overwhelmed,’ Lesa said.

Richard told her she was a great mom and wife and Lesa started crying.

‘It’s just a lot, Rich,’ Lesa said.



She said it would be nice if he could do a little bit more for the kids. He also offered to get her an emotional support Hermes bag.

Lesa met Chanel for a pool day. Lesa said she talked to Rich and they talked and she felt better. Stanbury and Taleen joined them. Lesa said they came up with an idea for a girls trip to Bali and the theme would be Eat, Pray and Party.

‘You know what was shocking, I got an apology from Caroline Brooks,’ Taleen said. ‘Hell has frozen over.’

‘She never takes any accountability,’ Stanbury said.



Lesa said she asked Brooks why she apologized.

‘Apparently I called her a beggar that’s because she is,’ Lesa said that was what Brooks said to her.

‘I guess hell hasn’t frozen over,’ Taleen said. ‘Why would I beg her for anything ?’

Taleen said in the nine years of her friendship with Brooks that she’s never seen this side of her.

‘I don’t like it one f***ing bit,’ Taleen said. ‘I’m a beggar now?’ Who is the two faced one?’

Stanbury and Sergio held their housewarming party. Brooks arrived holding a handful of burning sage.

‘Are you saging the house?’ Stanbury said. ‘It’s brand new.’

Stanbury said in a confessional that Brooks was trying to get a rise out of her and she wouldn’t let her ruin her first dinner at her new house. Brooks also brought an uninvited friend to Stanbury’s sit down dinner.

Stanbury thanked everyone for coming before it all went awry

‘No food, no chair,’ Stanbury said.

‘Don’t worry we’ll figure it out,’ Brooks said.

Stanbury took the sage away from Brooks. Stanbury thanked everyone for coming.

‘Allegedly Michael pays the mortgage, every utility, clothing,’ Brooks said in a confessional referencing Stanbury’s ex-husband.

Stanbury said Sergio wanted a baby but she wasn’t sure she wanted to do it again.

‘I’m 47 this year,’ Stanbury said. ‘I don’t think I have the patience.’

The Real Housewives of Dubai will return next Tuesday on Bravo.
