Bravo announced the news of her firing Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBravo has ceased filming with Jennie Nguyen and she will no longer be a cast member on \u2018The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,\u2019\u201d the statement read.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe recognize we failed to take appropriate action once her offensive social media posts were brought to our attention. Moving forward, we will work to improve our processes to ensure we make better informed and more thoughtful casting decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The controversy exploded after an unearthed collection of Facebook posts were brought to light, sparking backlash. The reality star had shared a series of memes and comments during the summer of 2020 at the height of protests related to the murder of George Floyd while in police custody, Page Six <a href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2022\/01\/19\/rhoslc-star-jennie-nguyen-faces-backlash-for-controversial-posts\/\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One post the 44-year-old former \u201cRHSLC\u201d star shared said, \u201cI\u2019m sick of people saying cops need more training. You had 18 years to teach your kids it\u2019s wrong to loot, steal, set buildings a blaze, block traffic, laser people\u2019s eyes, overturn cars, destroy buildings and attack citizens. Who failed who?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another said: \u201cHundreds of blacks shot and many killed (including children) by other blacks every week. Over a thousand Officers violently injured, some permanently, by rioters. Anarchists rioting in major cities every night, which has caused billions of dollars of destruction to private and public property. And you still think Police Officers are the problem. You are an idiot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nguyen allegedly also shared a meme that included the caption, \u201cIf you follow the officers [sic] orders, you won\u2019t get shot.\u201d At separate points, she also shared items which included phrases such as \u201cBLM Thugs\u201d and \u201cviolent gangs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reality star\u2019s Bravo co-workers were horrified by the posts and spoke out publicly condemning them. \u201cWatch What Happens Live\u201d host and \u201cRHSLC\u201d executive producer Andy Cohen said he found the posts \u201cupsetting\u201d and \u201cdisgusting.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Nguyen\u2019s \u201cHousewives\u201d co-stars reacted in a similar manner.
