It was at my bridal shower, and I got dinged for that,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n<p>Host David Yontef asked Dodd how much she was charged and the RHOC alum revealed the huge sum. She also elaborated on how the hat was only part of what the charges encompassed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got $16,000, and they wouldn\u2019t tell me why, but I know one of those reasons was wearing that hat,\u201d Dodd said. \u201cIt was general behavior, of why I got charged [$16,000].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She explained how Bravo reps refused to elaborate on the \u201cspecifics\u201d of why she was being charged. But Dodd insists the hat was a huge culprit because of the network\u2019s involvement with the Black Lives Matter movement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know I caused them a lot of grief because they did promote BLM so much,\u201d the reality star alleged.<\/p>\n<p>Dodd\u2019s bridal shower was a source of controversy for plenty of reasons besides just her headwear. In October 2020, the RHOC celeb faced backlash for the bridal shower due to the lack of social distancing and to the fact that none of the party attendees were wearing masks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Dodd described the celebration as \u201can amazing bridal shower\u201d and shared photos on Instagram. One of her followers commented on how it was more like a \u201cCovid party.\u201d The reality star replied, \u201cno one is sick,\u201d with a masked face emoji.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another commenter said they \u201cwish she was more responsible\u201d during the coronavirus pandemic. To that, Dodd replied that she\u2019s \u201cnever been sick\u201d before describing COVID as, \u201ca super flu not a death sentence!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other photos of the 2020 event, Dodd and other partygoers are photographed holding and wearing face masks.<\/p>\n<p>Some fans were upset about the \u201cDrunk Wives Matter\u201d hat as well. One of Dodd\u2019s followers called the slogan \u201cinsensitive\u201d just months after the Black Lives Matter organized protests that summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not [insensitive],\u201d Dodd replied to the person. \u201cMy girlfriend bought it for me as a gift. It\u2019s a play on words. Some people aren\u2019t that smart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know what, all lives matter,\u201d Dodd said in a deleted Instagram video, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1194979\/rhoc-s-kelly-dodd-defends-bridal-shower-and-drunk-wives-matter-hat\">according to<\/a> E Online. \u201cPeople that can\u2019t get a joke, go f*** yourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dodd is no stranger to speaking her mind and has a history of causing controversy with her words and her clothing. She also incited outrage in April 2020 for saying COVID-19 was, \u201cGod\u2019s way of thinning the herd.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it\u2019s dangerous why are the airlines still flying?\u201d Dodd <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/tv\/kelly-dodd-says-coronavirus-gods-way-of-thinning-the-herd-before-apologizing\/\">wrote<\/a> in response to a fan criticizing her getting on a plane. \u201cYou think I want to fly? I had to get back, how is that elitist? People are so judgemental [sic] it\u2019s sick!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you know how many people died from the H1N1, the swine flu or SARS?\u201d the \u201cReal Housewives\u201d star continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s 25% get your facts straight you are only hearing numbers not the reality! It\u2019s God\u2019s way of thinning the herd! If you are vulnerable or compromised stay inside. If you don\u2019t protect others by wearing masks and gloves keep your distance and don\u2019t go out if you are ill!!
