Annemarie Wiley was fired after only one season on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills because of her conservative political views and staunch support of Donald Trump, one source told the Daily Mail, who claimed that an ongoing feud between Crystal Kung-Minkoff and Wiley was on the surface about Wiley wrongly referring to herself as a doctor, but Kung-Minkoff was more “disgusted” about her co-star’s politics. She “struggled to understand why a woman of color would be aligned with Trump, who has made racist comments about various nationalities and colors,” the source said, also claiming that all of the infighting about politics on the reality show had been edited out, so that it wouldn’t become the season’s central focus. This included a moment during the reunion, when Garcelle Beauvais criticized Wiley for being a fan of right-wing commentator Candace Owens. Wiley was also “hyper-defensive” about her husband Marcellus’s transphobic views on transgender athletes, the source said. As Wiley’s season began to air, her husband was named in a sexual assault lawsuit, which accused him of sexual misconduct when he was in college. Wiley announced she would be leaving the show last week in a post on Instagram. “Fans never got to see the real me or get a glimpse of my unique life story,” she wrote.
