Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute discussed their crumbling friendship on Tuesday's reunion episode of Vanderpump Rules that was filmed before their firing.
It was announced earlier Tuesday that both women were let go from the Bravo reality series for taking part in a racist 'prank' against former castmate Faith Stowers, 31.
In 2018, the women reported Faith to police for a crime she did not commit, and their behavior has resulted in them being let go from the show.

On the second reunion episode, Stassi and Kristen squabbled about what happened to their once-tight connection, which saw them dubbed The Witches Of Weho along with pal Katie Maloney-Schwartz, 33.
Kristen, 37, admitted that she'd given Stassi, 31, and Katie a hard time recently, and even took pot shots at Katie by once telling her that her husband Tom Schwartz, 37, cheated.
The trio fell out after Katie and Stassi repeatedly told Kristen to leave her ex, Brian Carter, which made her more protective of him, despite the fact that she'd asked for honesty.
Kristen said she'd been angry throughout season 8, and recalled, 'I was, very selfishly, like 'F*** filming. F*** you guys. F*** everyone, I'm gone.'

Everyone reminded her that she'd wanted to break up with 'Carter' for two years, yet she'd always gone back to him, then blamed her friends for not supporting her more.
'You made us look like a**holes,' Stassi pointed out. 'And then the reunion rolls around, and I thought, ''Okay, she's gonna recognize what she did, and that she made us look like awful friends,' and you didn't. You doubled down on it. And then I was like, ''F*** you''.'
'You aggressively defended him to us, and then acted like we were crazy,' Katie added. 'And that was when our friendship, and my trust in you, started deteriorating. ...We weren't acting like sisters anymore.'

'I still loved and cared about you so much, but our friendship wasn't what it had been, and I didn't know how to get back to that with you,' she continued.
'Oh my God, the dogs, y'all,' Katie yelled at her castmates Jax Taylor, 40, and Brittany Cartwright, 31, on another screen, as they carried their barking dog out so she could talk.
Lala Kent, 30, then defended a comment she'd made about Carter living off of Kristen financially, saying it was the fact that he bled her dry emotionally that made it so upsetting.

Jax shook his head in disagreement.
Kristen meanwhile started dating a new man, Alex Menache, a month and a half ago, and seemed happier.

'I'm glad that Kristen is with somebody who I've met and who I think is really awesome and really kind and seems great,' Stassi said. 'And Carter sucks a**.'
James Kennedy, 27, said he could have predicted that Stassi and Katie would abandon Kristen as they'd done it 'a few times' before, though he couldn't help jabbing at her himself.
Stassi was reminded by show host Andy Cohen, 51, that she'd once compared the Witches of WeHo to Destiny's Child, and called herself 'the Beyoncé.

It embarrassed her, she said, but then reconsidered, offering, 'If you don't think you're the Beyoncé of your own life, then what the f*** are you doing?'
Kristen said she and Stassi were no longer friends, and Andy asked, 'Stassi, if your wedding was tomorrow, would Kristen be invited?'
'I'm too much of a pu**y to answer that question, and I'm too conflicted,' Stassi shared.
Good question: Andy asked Stassi if she would be inviting Kristen to her wedding
Stassi and Kristen weren't the only ones fired Tuesday; so, too, were newer cast members Max Boyens, 27, and Brett Caprioni, 31, who'd issued racists Tweets in the past.
On the reunion, Max finally admitted to hooking up with Scheana Shay, 35, while dating Dayna Kathan, 29, explaining that the two of them made out on a trip to Palm Springs, California.
The TomTom general manager said he and Scheana had played a game that ended up with them kissing, and the next morning, Scheana began performing oral sex on him.

Max swore he stopped her, explaining, 'I was like, ''Hey, this can't happen, I'm seeing Dayna''.'
The cast laughed then, declaring that his claim they'd stopped 'mid-b*** j**' was hilarious.
'Only guy ever,' cracked his boss Lisa Vanderpump, 59.
Good one: Lisa cracked a timely joke
'There were a lot of things I did last year that I was embarrassed by,' Scheana confessed. 'But Max was someone that I was very comfortable with, and he slept in my bed, we cuddled. I, yeah, felt something that yeah, I put my mouth… whatever. Whatever. It meant nothing.'
'BJs are never comfortable,' protested Stassi, as Lisa covered her ears. 'The jaw hurts, it's an effort. That's just not something you slip into.'
Scheana denied that she was jealous of Dayna, though Lisa wasn't so convinced, saying that the two of them were clearly competitive, and Scheana put Dayna down because of it.
Solid counterpoint: 'BJs are never comfortable,' protested Stassi, as Lisa covered her ears. 'The jaw hurts, it's an effort. That's just not something you slip into'
Dayna revealed that after filming she learned Max and Scheana had made a pact to keep their hook-up secret, but that two of the people they did tell ended up telling her.
Scheana was later forced to defend her kissing abilities after Andy reminded her that the also-fired Brett once called her a bad kisser—to which several female cast members said, 'Lies!'
'Brett, you tried to make her look like s***,' Kristen accused, as the SUR server insisted that Scheana had asked him to pretend they might have a relationship in the future.

Andy changed topics and asked James, who'd quit drinking 10 months ago and joined Alcoholics Anonymous, how he'd been doing with his sobriety.
Nearly all of his fellow cast members wiped their eyes as James' journey was shown in flashbacks, and they said they were proud of him.
'This girl right here saved my life, and I love her so, so much,' James said, choking up as he looked at girlfriend Raquel Leviss, 25, and thanked everyone for helping him 'see the light.'

Kristen whispered, 'Such bulls***,' refusing to believe that James had changed at all, because on the previous reunion episode, he viciously insulted her.
As the two of them squabbled, Tom Sandoval, 36, got up and played his trumpet.
Raquel said she'd 'turned a blind eye' to James' treatment of her and of other people, and apologized, saying the 'last straw' for her was when she got James' horrible drunken texts.
Getting emotional: Jax wiped away a tear while James discussed his sobriety
'Disgusting,' James agreed, looking back at his behavior.
Lala had also celebrated a year and a half of sobriety, and Andy asked her to address a recent fight between her and James.
After Lala's fiancé Randall Emmett, 49, was accused by rapper 50 Cent of owing him money, James posted a photo of himself on the Internet pointing to someone holding a shoe.

He captioned it, 'I want my money by Monday,' and it had upset Lala, she affirmed.
'I won't say more than I can, but there was a very public beef between myself and a pretty famous rapper, and it got very bad,' Lala explained. 'I felt like James and I had moved so beyond doing petty s*** to each other, that when I saw that it was just like a knife in my heart.'
James said the remark was another thing he wasn't proud of, a way to fulfill 'some inside thing.'
Proud friend: Tom Schwartz said he was proud of James for staying sober
'Everything's good now,' Lala added, noting that it happened outside of filming and there had been legal issues. 'Myself and Randall and this rapper, we just don't speak about each other.'
Lala then apologized for insulting Raquel at a recent party, saying she was talking nonsense.
'Yeah, I'm too young and pretty to be tolerating any bulls*** from James, and I feel the same way with anyone else,' Raquel said, laughing.
Right on: 'Yeah, I'm too young and pretty to be tolerating any bulls*** from James, and I feel the same way with anyone else,' Raquel Leviss said, laughing
Lala further regretted once saying of Scheana, 'It's not interesting to watch a 34-year-old woman in a crop top and a slutty Jojo Siwa pony doing the same thing over and over again.'
Crying, she said, 'I need to do better, and I need to be better,' acknowledging that she'd jabbed at many of the weaker cast members as Scheana admitted how hurt she'd been.
The cast showed how they've been filling their time during quarantine, with Stassi cooking, Scheana exercising, Jax and Brittany doing game challenges, and Tom and Katie singing karaoke.
Lisa was shown cleaning her home, and joked, 'You have no idea how I've suffered for two months.'
Barking dog: Jax sat alone after his wife Brittany tended to their barking dog
During the taping, the cast heard cowbells and applause for the healthcare workers of New York City out Andy's apartment window, and they all clapped and whooped, too.
Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval, the co-owners of TomTom Bar in Los Angeles, revealed that they had raised $50,000 for their employees during the COVID-19 crisis by taping video messages for fans.
Unfortunately, their new place, The Garden at TomTom, opened just before the coronavirus crisis started.

When Jax was asked what he thought of Sandoval as a friend, and as one of the best men at his wedding, he told him, 'I just think you're a really good actor.'
'If he was that good of an actor, he wouldn't be on Vanderpump F***ing Rules,' said Sandoval's girlfriend Ariana Madix, 34.
Vanderpump Rules will return next week with its third and final reunion episode on Bravo.
