“You need a person, you need a woman that knows about friendships and knows how to be a friend and knows how to have a disagreement with someone and then not go behind their back and try to mess up their entire life,” she continued. “Just be like a girl, say, ‘Okay, we didn’t agree, but we can move on and not keep on and keep on and keep on.’ I think she doesn’t get that.”
Alexiaalso believes that Lea never made real communication with her fellow Housewives.

“The truth is, we were never so connected to begin with. Not only me. I can speak for her and many other girls, and there was never that connection,” she explained. “And in these shows, the viewers and everyone else wants to see that there’s a real friendship…So I feel like her just coming back, I don’t really think she has anything to contribute.”
