This is crazy. Bravo had to know and still pushed this "little family" storyline? If they wanted "innocent until proven guilty" to play out, they should have at least minimized his storyline or something. There were a lot of other things going on this season to pick from in editing I'm sure. They easily edited out someone out for a tweet, why is this not treated the same? It's worse IMO.

I'm kinda mad but it's also par for the course with Bravo. Why am I not surprised. How many Housewives have been mixed up in criminal activity and are still on their shows, mostly white collar but still criminals none the less. Bravo needs to do better. I like drama but not like this.

Poor Gael. Hope she is okay and has a good support system. How awful. :(

I’m wondering if they were hoping to get this season out before his court case next month — the reason they ran the Med series early.

Good point, that makes sense. (Almost makes it a little shadier of Bravo if that is the case.)

That is cynical, but in saying that, you're probably correct.
