Garcelle Beauvais won't be TrendPulsesharing as much of her family life on the upcoming 14th season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
In fact, after her son Jax, 16, faced online bullying from social media trolls during the Bravo series' 12th season two years ago, the actress is keeping her teen out of the spotlight for now.
"Right before this season, Jax said to me, 'Mom, I can't do it anymore. It was too negative for me,'" Garcelle—who is also mom to 16-year-old Jaid and 33-year-old son Oliver from another marriage—revealed in E! News' exclusive sneak peek at the Aug. 27 episode of GMA and ABC Audio's Pop Culture Moms podcast. "And I respected that. So he's not on this season at all. Actually, I haven't said it to many people, so you're the first really hearing it."
The social media hate wasn't the only source of stress. Jax, then 14, also became a storyline during that same season after longtime castmate Erika Jayne drunkenly cursed him out while filming a cast party.
"That was also one of the hardest things because they didn't sign up for it," the Coming to America star admitted of the drama. "Watching the show in the past, I always felt like the kids were in the background. You saw them at the house, they weren't subjected to any negativity. So I thought, 'We can do this.' And then that happened with Jax."
"It blew my mind, because nobody deserves it," she added. "Nobody's kids deserve it."
That's when Garcelle reconsidered sharing her family with the world on reality TV.
"That was huge, and I had a conversation with the boys' dad," she noted of ex Michael Nilon. "And then I always leave it up to them every season, And so we did do the season after that."
But now, Jax is taking a break from the spotlight.
