Scripted may be overstating it. Maybe controlled chaos. The tension and fighting between Karen and Drita, Renee and Carla, is real. You really can't "script" a black eye, a bloody mouth, hair pulling, etc. with these women. They all have the same goal, which is to make money from the show. So they all participate and work together in that respect.

But within that frame, there is some real bad blood. But that can come and go pretty quickly. Remember it wasn't too long ago when Drita friends with Karen and was trying to get her and Renee to get along. Now Karen is friendly with Renee and at war with Drita.
