All the super wild controversies the Members Only: Palm Beach ladies have been involved in
Drama just follows these women
Palm Beach is meant to be all linen, low voices, and looking unbothered while your diamonds do the talking.
But Members Only: Palm Beach came in with platform heels and zero chill, and now the ladies are dealing with the kind of headlines you cannot smooth over with a cheeky brunch.
From alleged premiere party drama to club politics and eyebrow raising name drop stories, the cast has been linked to a whole menu of chaos both on screen and off.
Maria Cozaminas

Maria is giving reinvention queen on Netflix, but the most memeable off-screen revelation is that she previously published a dating and relationships book that fans only just clocked.
It is the kind of fun fact that turns into a whole storyline overnight because folks love a secret past career arc, especially when it feels wildly different from her DJ Tumbles era.
The book, Decoding the P*nis, resurfaced and shone a light on Maria’s hidden relationship coach side hustle that predates the show.
Rosalyn Yellin

Rosalyn’s controversy is very Palm Beach coded: social consequences.
Page Six reported that some Mar-a-Lago members were allegedly plotting to oust her from the club because they were unhappy about the show’s association with their world, even though filming was not allowed inside.
Rosalyn told the outlet she has been a member in good standing and focuses on philanthropy, but the bigger vibe is that locals are mad about what they feel the show represents. Basically, Netflix fame meets old school gatekeeping.
Ro-mina Ustayev

Ro-mina is the lightning rod newbie, and the controversy around her is less one single incident and more the constant suspicion that comes with being loud, glam, and new money in a place that worships quiet legacy.
In the official promo beat, she is positioned as someone the group questions and critiques, which set up the wider discourse about whether she belongs in their circle at all.
Meanwhile, online gossip went even further with wild rumour cycles about who is mentoring her and why. A whole theory on Gale “grooming” Ro-mina had to be debunked. Talk about turning her social climb into a spectator sport?!
Gale Brophy

Gale is basically a walking headline. First, claims circulated that she was asked to leave the Netflix premiere party, with reporting pointing to an alleged clash involving Taja and security stepping in.
Then there’s her onscreen name drop saga: Newsweek reported on her story about calling Bill Clinton during an alleged ransom hoax involving her son, which obviously made the internet go hold on, what.
And if that was not enough, Gale was also allegedly pushed away by security at Mar-a-Lago after approaching Donald Trump, per Taja’s account.
Suebelle Robbins

Suebelle’s controversy is the kind that sounds like it belongs in a memoir, except she said it on camera.
During Members Only: Palm Beach, she claimed she kissed Ronald Reagan at the White House and even confirmed it was on the lips, which instantly became a ‘will you please explain’ moment for everyone.
Whether you think it is iconic or impossible, it is definitely the quote everyone repeats at brunch.
Taja Abitbol Cone

Taja has two very different lanes of mess.
One is the alleged premiere party situation where reports claim she was involved in Gale being asked to leave, which is exactly the kind of off-camera power play that reality TV stans live for.
The other is heavier. Apparently, she was involved in a past legal dispute linked to allegations that she set a fire in her own home for fame, which she denied while fighting it in court.
Hilary Musser

Hilary’s controversies sit right at the intersection of Palm Beach politics and personal history.
On the social side, she’s been dragged into the ongoing who really counts as Palm Beach debate, with locals and viewers questioning addresses, memberships, and who actually belongs in the inner circle versus who’s just nearby.
She explained on Heather McDonald’s podcast why she’s so offended when people say she’s ‘not real Palm Beach’.
Then there’s the much heavier off-screen drama. Hilary reportedly attempted to sue her ex-husband’s estate in a messy legal dispute years after his death, alleging unresolved financial issues connected to their marriage.
The timing and details raised eyebrows, especially as the lawsuit reportedly unfolded long after his passing, turning it into one of the most emotionally charged backstories on the cast.
Add in her very public cast tension, including interviews hinting that at least one friendship situation is still frosty after filming, and you have the classic reality TV combo of society credentials plus unresolved beef.
