Kelly Dodd is in the middle of a full-blown family feud, and it’s all playing out on social media. The drama started when her brother, Eric Meza, uploaded a video calling out the Real Housewives of Orange County alum. Apparently, he wanted to share his side of the story after hearing Kelly speak about their family on her podcast. Of course, Kelly clapped back, and the whole thing is reaching a new level of nastiness.

“Everybody keeps contacting me about my sister and this or that, okay, so I’m just going to set the record straight here,” Eric began in the video, taken just moments after getting out of a shower.
“I don’t talk to her. Her niece and nephews don’t talk to her. Her mother doesn’t talk to her. That’s self-explanatory,” Eric said. “Doesn’t that tell you something about somebody?”
According to Eric, the family drama has also extended to Jolie Dodd, Kelly’s teenage daughter. Eric said Rick Leventhal is the only consistent person in Kelly’s life. As he pointed out, Rick is also estranged from his daughter.
“Her own daughter doesn’t talk to her,” Eric continued. “She disowned her. She wants nothing to do with her. Jolie is done with her. She’s a terrible mom.”
That’s pretty bad, right? Well, Kelly made things ten times worse in a series of Instagram stories. In one video, you can see Kelly on the phone with her dad. She had him on speaker phone, and neither of them had nice things to say about Eric.
“Eric is the biggest piece of sh*t, right?” Kelly asked their dad.
“He’s worse than sh*t,” their father replied. “He’s sick. The way he uses language like that, I said that language doesn’t come from God or the bible. It comes from hell.”
In subsequent Instagram Stories, Kelly exposed text messages from a woman who allegedly had a restraining order against Eric. She called him a “psycho” and mocked him for not owning a home.
“Oh yeah, we’re gonna believe what Eric Meza has to say,” Kelly said sarcastically in one post.
Clearly, this drama has been boiling over for a while, and we’re only getting a glimpse into this dynamic. Either way, we think they should take this off of social media and straight to a therapist’s office.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo every Thursday at 9/8c. Stream it on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
