Annemarie Wiley is talking out in opposition to Crystal Kung-Minkoff amid their messy feud on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
After Annemarie, 40, and Crystal, 40, argued about Annemarie’s career and the way she supposedly launched herself as a health care provider, and butted heads over Crystal’s alleged trash-talking of different solid members, Annemarie confirmed she was “warned” about Crystal. She additionally slammed her “damaging” allegations, seemed forward to the reunion taping, and mirrored on the drama surrounding Sutton Stracke‘s esophagus.
“I really trusted her a lot more than I should have,” Annemarie shared of Crystal throughout a current interview with Hollywood Life. “I was warned by several people about the kind of person she is — that she flip flops, that she lies, she fabricates things.”
According to Annemarie, she was warned about Crystal by folks tied to RHOBH and off-camera acquaintances earlier than being accused of mendacity about her profession as a licensed registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA) and suggesting she was a health care provider.
“It was so upsetting and appalling to me,” Annemarie stated of Crystal’s claims. “We’re talking about my career here. And all of a sudden I feel like we’re in the assault on nurses. I’m just trying to understand what’s going on with Sutton, Crystal’s like, ‘Hmm, let me piggy back off of this and create this drama so I have something to talk about.’ We just had this full on assault on nurses and advanced practice nurses now.”
“We all know, she [Crystal] needed to step it up this year,” Annemarie continued. “She needed something to talk about, so she made this up so that she could start drama with me, and then bingo — she’s got a storyline.”
As Annemarie continues to face backlash as a result of Crystal’s claims in opposition to her, even garnering consideration from the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), who accused her of “title misappropriation,” she’s not backing down.
“When Crystal does this, she doesn’t understand how damaging and hurtful that actually is for nurses and advanced practice nurses because we are always advocating for what we do,” she defined. “We are the people who are with the patient 12 hours a day. The degrees, the license, the credentials. Those are very hard things to obtain, and I feel like this narrative and this storyline of my profession constantly being attacked was terribly disrespectful.”
Needless to say, Annemarie shared her huge plans for the reunion, which had but to be filmed when this interview was carried out.
“My rookie year — there were a lot of rookie mistakes,” she admitted. “I listened to a lot of things that I should not have listened to. I trusted a lot of people that I should not have trusted. There were a lot of things I should’ve said in the moment that I did not say. Again, now I know. I have a lot of things to clear up in the reunion.”
Also chatting with Hollywood Life, Annemarie stated that regardless of her many questions on Sutton’s well being, she “couldn’t care less about Sutton’s esophagus.”
“I’m a busy person. I don’t have time to be worried about Sutton’s esophagus,” she famous. “When Kyle had said that Sutton does not eat, she pushes her food around her plate, and she [Sutton] says it’s because she has a small esophagus I was just wondering, like, what does that mean? But when I asked her [Sutton], she said, ‘No, why are you asking this,’ and she got mad, and then that’s why I start saying, what you’re saying doesn’t medically make sense, because you’re denying a reason for it. That’s really it. I’m honestly trying to just understand what it is.”
Looking again, Annemarie confessed to having regrets concerning the challenge.
“I should’ve never been talking about her esophagus,” she stated. “Trust me, I am more sick of hearing about it than anybody else. I’m so over it. But you know, I’m a rookie. I’m coming in, there’s no handbook.”
Also talking of Sutton, Annemarie confirmed she was delay by her castmate’s therapy of Kyle Richards, 55, particularly her probing of her separation from Mauricio Umansky, 53, on the solid’s weed dinner earlier this season.
“It was really surprising to see somebody that claims to be friends with Kyle treat her that way,” she reasoned. “Sutton is divorced too, so she knows the pain of having marital struggles. So I’m like, why is this person who is her supposed friend going so hard at her? And why does she care so much, right? She’s not coming in a loving way, she’s not coming in a supportive way, she’s really coming in an accusatory way.”
“But then I also see that Sutton doesn’t like to share her own personal information,” Annemarie continued. “If you ask her information about herself, then you kind of get her evil Jekyll & Hyde look and she scowls at you and she gets mad at you. Like why are you attacking Kyle when you don’t even want to talk about yourself? I felt really bad for Kyle.”
