Lesa Milan Talks Chanel Ayan’s Betrayal and SHADES Caroline Stanbury! 

Lesa Milan is pulling back the curtain on her dramatic fallout with Chanel Ayan and isn’t holding back as she throws shade at Caroline Stanbury in a candid new interview.

Real Housewives of Dubai star, Lesa Milan, recently opened up about the season’s evolving dynamics, her fallout with Chanel Ayan, and the newbie of the show, Taleen Marie.

Fans will remember that RHODubai debuted in 2022 and was immediately surrounded by controversy. Bravo faced criticism for producing a show in a country known for its strict laws against women and the LGBTQ+ community.

Despite this, the show has garnered a dedicated following.

Lesa recently sat down with Out Magazine and shared her thoughts on the show’s direction and the long hiatus between seasons.

Addressing the delay, she candidly said, “You’re gonna have to take that one up with Bravo. I’m not sure about the delays because we’ve also been waiting.” She added, “We filmed this season months ago. I’ll say this: my dear, it’s gonna be worth the wait. I feel like season one was like the warm-up, and season two is where we showed up to work, baby.”

Reflecting on her fallout with former friend Chanel Ayan, Lesa expressed her surprise at how things unfolded. “Well, to be honest, I don’t really know where it began, but I’ll say it caught me by surprise. I had no idea the finale would end the way it did, but in the world of reality, it was epic. In reality for us, though, it was so sad and heartbreaking,” she revealed. Lesa hinted at a dramatic build-up, saying:

“You guys are gonna have to wait until towards the end, but it plays out a few episodes that lead to, like, the big bang. It’s very disappointing. It’s like a relationship breaking up in a way, but here we are more fabulous than ever.”

Lesa also touched on her evolving relationship with Caroline Stanbury, noting the effort she put into mending fences.

“I’ll say this… episode one and two, you see that I was genuinely trying with her. If you say you’re sorry, I believe you until you do it again, and you only get one chance with me. I can show you more than I can tell you, and I expect the same thing.”

However, Milan admitted she never felt a genuine connection with Stanbury.

“I don’t feel like anything with her really ruffles my feathers because we’re not that close, you know? I feel like with Chanel, it’s a lot different because we were literally best friends.”

Discussing Caroline Brooks and her new friendship with Chanel, Lesa was skeptical.

“I still don’t think it’s real – how can I have a problem with something that’s not real? I mean, I think everyone on social media can see right through it. I feel nothing because it’s not real.”

She goes on to say that she’s “in a good place” with everyone on the cast, except for Chanel, with whom she has a real issue.

As the conversation wrapped up, Lesa touched on the absence of Nina Ali and talked about the new addition to the show, Taleen Marie. 

“We will always miss her and she’s irreplaceable. Nina is more calm and reserved, and Taleen is like a big ball of energy. So I think Taleen brings the energy, the extra energy, not that we even needed energy, because I feel between Ayan and me, I feel like we already have Brooks. She seems like a fun girl.”

The Real Housewives of Dubai airs on Tuesday nights on Bravo.
