Jared Osmond DISS ‘RHOSLC’ Star Britani Bateman, Says She ‘Adds So Much Drama’ To Their Relationship!
Jared Osmond isn’t holding back when it comes to his relationship with Real Housewives of Salt Lake City newcomer Britani Bateman, accusing her of stirring up unnecessary drama. He claims Britani “adds so much drama for no reason,” calling out her behavior as purely for the cameras and suggesting she is more concerned with fame than their on-again-off-again relationship.
Real Housewives of Salt Lake City introduced a new face in Season 5, Britani Bateman, a Utah real estate agent and performer who is making waves with her on-screen antics. Britani’s biggest drama so far revolves around her on-again-off-again relationship with Donny Osmond’s cousin, Jared Osmond.
Britani’s RHOSLC Debut
Britani’s debut on RHOSLC didn’t exactly go smoothly. The Real Housewives newbie stumbled in the season 5 premiere, calling out Bronwyn Newport’s exclusive jacket as a “costume” and awkwardly trying to relate to cast member Mary Cosby by sharing her own struggles growing up poor. While some fans applauded her boldness, others found her introduction a bit too theatrical.
Things took a bigger turn at a group dinner, where Britani publicly announced she was officially dating her boyfriend, Jared Osmond, after a social media post labeled “my best friend” convinced her they were solid. Britani’s revelation left fans puzzled as she admitted the two had broken up over 40 times, but she assured everyone this was now the real deal. Lisa Barlow, however, wasn’t buying it. In a dramatic moment, Barlow shouted across the table, “You’re not official!”
Jared Osmond Responds
While Britani shared her side of the romance, Jared Osmond is now speaking out, and he’s not impressed with how things have been portrayed on the show. According to messages posted on the Mary Cosby Fan Page on Twitter/X, Jared, cousin to legendary entertainer Donny Osmond, painted Britani as the source of their drama, accusing her of adding unnecessary theatrics for the cameras.
Jared claimed that Britani is using their relationship “in an attempt to be relevant,” adding that she’s constantly concerned he won’t propose. He also noted that agreeing to film for RHOSLC was “against [his] better judgment.”
Social Media Speculation
The drama didn’t stop there. Fans have begun speculating that Britani may be behind a Jared Osmond fan account that has been praising her Instagram posts. One fan tweeted, “I 100% believe Britani made that Jared Osmond fan bot account for a storyline.” Other viewers added that Britani seemed eager to replicate the fame of fellow RHOSLC alum Monica Garcia, but her efforts have fallen flat.
In response to the backlash, Britani has since scrubbed any mentions of Jared from her social media, fueling further speculation about the authenticity of their relationship.
What’s Next for Britani?
As Season 5 of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City continues to air, viewers are eager to see how the drama between Britani and Jared unfolds. Will Jared make an on-screen appearance to address the relationship head-on? Or will the off-screen drama overshadow Britani’s attempts to solidify her place among the RHOSLC cast?
Fans can catch all the drama between Britani and the rest of the Salt Lake City crew every Wednesday night on Bravo and streaming the following day on Peacock.
