Cara and Juliette could have been the baddest duo of all time. They could literally take over the world if they would join forces.

[@nylotus]

You do realize this is scripted. Perhaps your generation hasn't caught on yet.

[@ashleychildresss]

@@nylotus lol honey I’m 30 years old. My preteen - teen years were spent religiously watching Laguna Beach then The Hills only for my world to be shattered when the finale aired and I was shown that my whole life had been a lie!!!! So yeah I completely understand scripted “reality” tv…. And I stand by my original comment.

[@hopeaiden6639]

Cara was 100% in the right during her relationship with Garrett it was so disrespectful of him always running to kelsey

[@karlasalinas261]

Same with her going after Alex whenever he talked to her, even after Garret told her it made him feel uncomfortable. They were both in the wrong and Kelsey had no place in that relationship

[@abie4230]

She’s funny to me lol. I also think she’s the prettiest

Juliette is. Caras not all that.

[@kirbyd6571]

Thank you. I like her alot. Im not sure why everyone else doesn’t. She’s blunt and straightforward what’s wrong with that. She tells it how it is. I’d rather someone be upfront with me , than always sugarcoating ish

[@sansadrake4133]

@@kirbyd6571 its not that. She has a bitchy attitude, and insults everyone, calls them names, Laughs at people in front of their faces. Shes really immature. Like what bullies do in high school, not a woman in her mid to late 20s. That's the extreme opposite of someone simply being blunt and straightforward. I find it unbelievable how some viewers can't see how mean spirited she is

[@mychannel8809]

She is absolutely the prettiest, also amanda

[@sashal6593]

Cara was right about Kelsey. Kelsey used her mother's sickness as a batman signal to keep luring Garrett. Kelsey has so many friends but cries to Garrett about her mother every time Garrett starts dating someone new. She did the same thing when Garrett was dating Juliette.

[@bbsara0146]

do you think these people actually know each other as soon as the season wraps? they probably only see each other to film the show

[@brianaelaine151]

​@@bbsara0146Most of them break off into their own groups when the seasons end. I think they all just come together when they have to for the show.

Cara is beautiful and has such a kick ass aura/energy/vibe and is so secure in herself she deflects other people's thoughts comments drama etc love it love her

Cara has always been my fave. The girls have no reason not to like her other than the fact that she does not kiss their butt and calls it like it is, plus she looks the best.

[@avenegas17]

I’m really happy she’s back . She def is the only one that can put Chloe in her place 🥰

[@nicoleallen6792]

I think amanda keeps chloe in her place too

[@kirstyhesketh1416]

❤

[@brianaelaine151]

I think all of Chloe's friends could put her in her place honestly bc they know her the best so they know what to say to get through to her. And they know what would hurt her feelings which seems like the only way to get through to someone like her is to be really harsh.

[@elsh26]

Garret calling cara Kelsey mid disagreement he knew he fucked up ☠️😂

[@mayra2032]

The fact that she’s a strong personality is such a jersey girl thing. Lol love it!

[@robthompson7958]

“Like yes obviously we should stay exclusive while we’re away…” thank god Garrett is hot cause he never knew the right thing to say to her 😂😂😂

[@karlakathleen2611]

Cara owns her shit and it makes me adore her even more. Shes very real and blunt

[@superrnova69]

I didn’t like her at first but she started to rub off on me now she’s my fave, you go girl!

[@mychannel8809]

I’m waiting for this to happen to me 😅 I think the toxic part of me still hates her cause I adored Juliette so much but Juliette at the end of the day is the true shady mean girl, cara doesn’t seem all that bad

[@klachelle2173]

I mean…if I were on this show I’d definitely favor Cara 😂😂. She’s unapologetically herself and that rubs people the wrong way especially in this artificial friend group. Kenna came on a bit too strong it wasn’t her place because she doesn’t know what truly went down in their relationship. She had points in regards to Kelsey and Garrett, it was back and forth for a while. But I liked her mini apology tour, it showed a softer more introspective side of her. I hope she’s on this next season. She needs her own show.

[@Jolie-df9os]

They're all mad at Cara roasting them but let's be honest; it was all fucking true

[@lizpurr8402]

Cara is DEFINITELY the prettiest.

[@ZavidWebster]

Cara's only communication with Garrett was a letter that sounded peaceful. So she probably thought he was fine with her. I wouldn't be okay with my man's ex showing up after a bad situation but kenna didn't have to lay into her like that. Cara was probably being filled in by Chloe. I'm glad she' cool with Kelsey. Amanda just follows along with the group.

[@dieteticwellnessinc8092]

Am I missing something ? Garrett was wishy washy and disrespectful. Kelsey knew what she was doing. Kenna was doing too much and I am glad Cara didn't back down

[@alexshiflett3716]

The SpongeBob square pants comment is iconic 🤣

[@morgangaskin3072]

She looks like Aly Michalka

[@MSkp4wo]

ngl ifl the only difference and the reason why garretts current relationship is working and why him and cara is bc garett is (and cara too for that matter) a little more mature now and probably came into the new relationship actually wanting to commit and make it work...like it was just a matter of HIS perspective change not the girls themselves, like if cara and garett met for the first time at the age and point in life they are in now currently, pretty sure they'd be still together

[@TheNicholle23]

Kelsey, you act like you didn’t say awful stuff about cara or Juliette? Stop acting like you’re better than everyone else. And “it’s not fair to hate on girls”? YOU LITERALLY DID THE EXACT SAME THING!!!!
