RHODubai Season 1 returned to Bravo for an all-new episode on Wednesday night. This week, Sara Al Madani found herself drawing criticism from fans after she told Chanel to be more like her.

In the episode, Sara lectured Chanel about forgetting the pain from her past and asked the latter to be more like her. The preaching did not sit well with both Chanel and fans of the show.

Episode 6 of RHODubai featured Sara and Chanel having a conversation related to the latter's mental health and therapy sessions. Chanel met up with Sara before her event and during their conversation, she opened up to Sara, revealing that she had started seeing a therapist from Los Angeles.

The RHODubai star shared that she initially didn't understand why her therapist told her to water her fake plants but eventually acknowledged that it had helped and that she had noticed positive changes in her life. Sara was happy to know that Chanel was doing well and that hypnotherapy was working for her.

While the conversation should've ended there, Sara went on to add that Chanel should learn to be kind and forget her past traumas and pain. She concluded her lecture by claiming that Chanel should learn to be more like herself, adding that she wasn't born this way.

Hearing Sara's words, Chanel shared that while she was happy for Sara and her accomplishments, her lecture was too preachy and made her sound like Jesus Christ.

Luckily for Chanel, she wasn't the only one who felt this way.

Taking to Twitter, fans affirmed Chanel's reaction and said that Sara was indeed being too preachy. Some even added that she needed to get rid of her holier-than-thou attitude.


Here's a little recap of what happened this week in RHODubai Season 1, Episode 6

Apart from Sara and Chanel's conversation, a lot more drama happened this week on RHODubai.

For starters, Sergio and Caroline checked into the hotel for their wedding. While unpacking, when Caroline handed over a bag containing her wedding night lingerie to Sergio, he asked his fiance if he could take a peek, but she denied.

Later, once the couple were done unpacking, Sergio asked Caroline if they could have a "tiki tiki" night. While there was no other context to it at first, it was assumed by many that he meant it literally like a dinner with tiki torches. But during Caroline's confessional, it was made clear that according to Sergio, "tiki tiki" meant getting intimate.

Caroline shared that her 27-year-old fiance always had intimacy on his mind. Upon denying his request that night, he claimed that it was a tradition to get intimate the night before the wedding.

In response, when Caroline pointed out that it wasn't the night before the wedding, Sergio joked that she liked to see him suffer.


RHODubai airs every Wednesday night at 9 pm ET only on Bravo. Readers can check local listings for more information.
