“Bravo has ceased filming with Jennie Nguyen and she will no longer be a cast member of ‘The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’ reads an official statement from Bravo.

As previously reported Nguyen trended on Twitter last week after racist Facebook posts she shared in 2020 resurfaced. In them, she made several disparaging and racist remarks about the Black Lives Matter movement “thugs” and “Black-on-Black” crime. At least one post also “joked” about running over “rioters” and another from Nguyen mocked people who want an apology or reparations for slavery.
