The theme of Season 2 seems to be “interesting” as alliances shift and new friendships develop.

The Real Housewives fans fell in love with a brand-new reality franchise in the beloved cinematic universe when Bravo launched The Real Housewives of Dubai in the summer of 2022. And now it’s back for a spicy second season. The Real Housewives of Dubai follows the lives of some of the most fabulous women in the City of Gold. One of whom is the single-mom and owner of The Glass House, Caroline Brooks.

Caroline Brooks, or Brooks as her co-stars call her, is one of the founding and original members of The Real Housewives of Dubai. She relocated to Dubai from Massachusetts with her now ex-husband and son, where she set up and established a new life in the Emirates. During the first season of the Bravo franchise, Brooks built and fostered relationships with the show’s friend group, comprised of Caroline Stanbury, Chanel Ayan, Lesa Milan, Sara Al Madani, and Nina Ali. But not all of those friendships were established well enough yet. To the point where a well-meaning but unsolicited piece of advice garnered a reactive disagreement.

Speaking to Collider about the incident with Sara Al Madani, Brooks said, “Back then, we weren’t really that close. She didn’t know my son. She didn’t know me that well to be able to make that assessment.” She continued, “It really bothered me because I’m a single mom, just like her. And I feel like if somebody were to give her that criticism as a single mom, she would be equally as offended because nobody’s at home with her to see all the ups and downs. And the troubles. And the highs and the lows. And the happiness and sadness of being a single parent doing it on your own.”

But fear not. That moment has been mended as her friendship with Sara has grown, and they have gotten closer since the filming of Season 1.

Caroline Brooks Continues To Make a Name for Herself In Dubai

Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Dubai will continue some stories revolving around Brooks and her salon and spa, The Glass House. During the first season, viewers watched as Brooks worked with her ex-husband, Zoran, to build her dream business. In regard to working with her ex-husband, Brooks said, “I was his boss. I hired him. I paid him exactly like any other client would. So he got a little comfortable. When he got comfortable I let him know we’ll stop the checks. So don’t get comfortable. I am the client, and you’re going to treat me as such.” Brooks was in charge and ensured that the project came to fruition the way she desired.
