Rodger Berman’s girlfriend, Bree Jacoby, fired back at his ex-wife, Rachel Zoe, for shading her on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15.
“Leave me the f*** alone… What’s so insane?” Bree, 36, unleashed in a series of Instagram Stories on Friday, April 10. “You did not want to be married and said it yourself you wish you left 7 years ago. You’re acting like a jealous woman. Get a new story line. I’m not going anywhere. So get used to it.”
Bree — who is a businesswoman and a stylist — shared a clip from a recent RHOBH episode where Rachel complained to costar Dorit Kemsley about her ex-husband declaring his love for his new girlfriend on her birthday via Instagram. Rachel suggested Rodger was trying to deliberately irritate her because the two women’s birthdays are days apart and both are stylists.
“Since so many of my friends reached out I want to set the record [straight],” Bree explained via Instagram on Friday. “My birthday is sept 2 (1 day after her) not 3. We have been dating for almost 2 years. I’m actually a business woman who happens to style – not a celebrity stylist. But you do you girl. Respect.”
How Rachel Zoe Reacted to Ex Rodger Berman Dating Bree Jacoby
Bree claimed that she met Rachel and Rodger’s two children — sons Skyler, 14, and Kaius, 12 — “a year after dating” their dad. She then dismissively called Rachel “a great actor” but insisted she was “sick of her storyline.”
“I actually don’t care about anything other than the kids and my relationship. I wish her the best and to find love and happiness,” Bree wrote. “I would be a modern family. But she can’t do it. It’s very sad. But that’s her own issue. We are better than the drama. But I’m really getting tired of this portrayal of him and of me. It’s not true. Rodger is an incredible father might I add. And an incredible boyfriend. Best human.”
In a later post, Bree encouraged other people to send her messages to Rachel since the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member apparently “blocked” her once she started seeing Rodger.
“The issue is that she takes zero accountability for her own behavior and is absolutely awful to me (calls me trash),” she concluded. “Bad press is good press so keep talking. But if you’re gonna talk. At least be a woman and talk to me direct. Like I said – I ain’t going anywhere. See ya at the bar mitzvah.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Zoe’s representative for comment.
Rachel and Rodger were married for 26 years before the Rachel Zoe Project star announced their plans to divorce in September 2024.
“After 33 years together and 26 years married, Rodger and I have come to the mutual decision to end our marriage,” Rachel confirmed via Instagram at the time. “We are incredibly proud of the loving family we have created and our countless memories together.”
Rache’s statement continued, “Our number one priority has been and will always be our children. We are committed to coparent our boys and to continue to work together within the many businesses we share. We ask for privacy during this time as we navigate this new chapter.”
Rachel Zoe Is Open to Getting Married Again, But Doesn’t ‘Need a Man’
Us reported in July 2025 that the RHOBH newbie officially filed for divorce from Roger, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split. Zoe subsequently revealed on Watch What Happens With Andy Cohen in February that she was hopeful of reaching a divorce settlement “soon.”
Asked about Rodger’s reaction to her discussing their split on RHOBH, Zoe admitted, “He’s not thrilled. But I also think people are telling him, his friends or whatever, look, anything that I said is really how I felt in the moment.”
“And things were happening in real time this summer, and there’s a lot I don’t share,” she added.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15 airs Thursdays on Bravo. Old episodes are available via Peacock.
