Both of her sons are handsome well behaved young men. Puts Jeana snarky rude sons of Orange County to shame. They are as rude as her ex was. And they abused the family pets as well. Disqusting..

I hope the boy is going to be OK...The person who caused this collision should be happy it wasn't my child they injured!

It was probably an auto collision, not an accident. Most collisions can be avoided if people were not such stupid drivers and simply followed the rules of the road. So I am sure someone was an idiot in this situation as usual.

The Real Housewives of Miami are hardly "stars". The show was dull and uninteresting, and the housesives did not even speak real English.
