But what about Britani Bateman?!
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City “friend of” had the best sense of humor after being left out of Us Weekly’s annual Reality Stars of the Year feature — and she turned the moment into pure comedy gold.
While in New York for interviews, Britani rocked a red bikini and couldn’t help but poke fun at her absence.
“I could not resist,” Britani joked to the Us Weekly correspondent.
“You wanna hear something so crazy? I did not know what the cover was going to look like.”
Turns out, the Bravoleb just happened to bring a swimsuit that perfectly matched the vibe of her co-stars’ cover look — talk about divine timing.
“It was beautiful. What a great spread. What a great tribute,” Britani said.
“They were on fire.”
In case you missed it, all seven current full-time RHOSLC stars — OGs Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, and Whitney Rose, plus newer additions Angie Katsanevas and Bronwyn Newport — recreated Vanity Fair’s iconic 2005 Desperate Housewives cover for the issue.
And while Britani didn’t make the official photo, she was nothing but supportive…and a little cheeky about it.
“It’s mind-blowing. I mean, seriously,” Britani shared.
“I just feel so privileged and very fortunate to be a part of it in any capacity, even as a friend of.”
