RHOSLC’s Bronwyn Newport on Leaving Her Husband, Losing Her Father & Choosing Herself at 40 | PEOPLE

Bronwyn Newport is opening up about a year that changed everything. ‘The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’ star reflects on turning 40, navigating a difficult season in her marriage to Todd Bradley and grieving the loss of her father. Bronwyn explains why honesty was important to her, even when it was uncomfortable. “I agreed to put my life on camera,” she says, “and that can’t just be the things that benefit me or the things that are easy.” As viewers watched her relationship struggles play out on RHOSLC, she admits it was difficult, and eye-opening, to see herself onscreen. “I didn’t like who I was,” she says. After losing her father last summer, Bronwyn briefly reconnected with Todd, but turning 40 ultimately became a wake-up call. She decided to separate, a choice she describes as painful but necessary. Attending BravoCon without Todd helped her realize she would be OK on her own, though she stresses the respect and care she still has for him. “I really care about Todd,” she says. “I want the very best for him.” Now, Bronwyn is stepping into a new chapter shaped by reflection, resilience and hope for what’s next.
