Following the decision, Braunwyn went off on social media about the producer's decision. She said she wanted nothing to do with the drama and was confused as to the reason for her being fired but her friends being brought on.

As RadarOnline.com first reported, since her being fired, Braunwyn has been dealing with it. Earlier this month, the former RHOC star and her husband Sean were sued for eviction. Their landlord accuses them of owing $45,000 in back rent.

In a response filed by Sean, without the help of a lawyer, he demanded the case be dismissed. He admitted to owing money but said he was working on repaying the money.

In the suit, Sean also accused the landlord of ruining Braunwyn's reputation by filing the suit. The case is still pending in Orange County court.
