Bronwyn Newport didn’t hold back on the RHOSLC Season 7 premiere. The reality star revealed that her estranged husband, tech exec Todd Bradley, forgot her 40th birthday entirely. No card, no gift, no party. According to Newport, that moment was the final straw in their nine-year marriage, especially coming just months after her father passed away.
She also got candid about the years leading up to the split, saying she realized she had been by herself in the marriage for a long time and had to get herself out. The couple separated three months after her birthday, and Newport says the decision was hers. Even so, she hasn’t finalized the divorce yet, explaining that it still feels raw and that she’s scared to be alone.
The story took another turn in February when Newport was linked to 32-year-old model Brandon Good. Her mother has since voiced concern that the new public romance is awkward for Newport’s 20-year-old daughter, Gwen. It’s a lot of real life playing out on camera, and fans are clearly invested.
Do you think a forgotten birthday is a fair“final straw,”or is there always more going on underneath?
