Sonja Morgan Doesnt Know If Shes Invited To Luann de Lesseps Wedding; Fredrik Eklund May Not Attend Ryan Serhants
Tonight’s episode of Watch What Happens Live featured a pretty laid back Sonja Morgan and an always adorable Fredrik Eklund. Amy Schumer was originally scheduled to be there with Ramona, but Amy had a throat issue and is hoping to make an appearance next week, where Ramona is now scheduled.
They jump right in with questions. Is Sonja helping Luann de Lesseps plan her wedding? “We do spend a lot of time talking about it. She is over the moon excited.” Andy mentions that Sonja dated Lu’s guy, “That’s right, so I know both very well.” And she confirms that Ramona dated him, too. “It’s going to be very interesting, you’ll have to watch.”
Did Sonja know Jules before the show and what does she think of her calling the women elderly? “I guess when you’re as young as Jules you find us elderly, but she shouldn’t knock it til she gets to my age. I’m enjoying it.” She does admit that she’s known Jules for a while because Sonja (and Fredrik) is good friends with one of Jules’ husband’s friends.
A caller asks Fredrik if he’s going to get an invite to Ryan Serhant’s wedding. Fredrik said that he got a “maybe” from Ryan. He thinks their wedding is in July, so there’s time. Sonja chimed in to say that they should wait to decide until after the reunion tapes because things can change. “Look at me and Luann. I don’t know if I’ll be invited to her wedding either!” Fredrik says that weddings are holy and he doesn’t want to disturb that and maybe it’s better if he doesn’t go.

What did Sonja think when she heard Ramona say she was avoiding her because of her actions with alcohol and men? Sonja laughs, “I don’t think Ramona should be talking about that because I’ve defending Ramona for almost 30 years for her behavior. And I’m certainly invited places where they’re always whispering ‘don’t tell Ramona because we didn’t invite her.'”
Would Fredrik and Derek pose for Playgirl together? Fredrik cracks up, “I did that already! I did that like 20 years ago. I had centerfolds.” Andy is surprised that he didn’t know this already and Fredrik tells him to Google it.
Fredrik is asked who he’d rather – Ryan or Luis. He gets flustered a bit but says that Luis would be his pick because he had a Puerto Rican boyfriend once.
A viewer asks Sonja if she voted in the NY primary yesterday and if she voted for Trump. “I’m not gonna tell you who I voted for but I did vote.”
Andy asks if Sonja ever lists her townhouse if she’d use Fredrik for an agent. He says that Sonja actually has contacted him already. She says she likes to know what’s what in the market right now. Andy asks if she’d list her townhouse for around $7 million? She screeches, “What?! I had it listed for $12 million before my reorganization and became a victim to the world.”
What’s her relationship status with Ramona? “Well, you know she is my BFF, we’ll always be close. She froze me out a little bit, so that gave me more time to be LuSonja.”
Andy says they got a lot of Tweets feeling like it’s Sonja and Luann versus the rest of the girls this season. “At first it did and you have to watch the show because I do wanna get connected with the girls again. Enough about my businesses.”
Poll of the night: Whose side are you on – Bethenny or John? 85% chose Bethenny.

Dorinda Medley Disgusted By Ramona Singer And Bethenny Frankel; Says Theyre Obsessed With John!
Dorinda Medley is not reacting well to Bethenny Frankel and Ramona Singer calling out her man. Saying last week’s episode of Real Housewives Of New York “truly, madly, deeply angered me,” Dorinda goes on to explain just why Ramona’s comments were so hurtful and questions what exactly Bethenny’s motives are!
To quote Bethenny, Dorinda quips, “I have to say that the gild is not only off this lily, but it has been scraped off, melted off, trampled on, etc,” and “proves that this wasn’t ‘the summer & fall of zero f—s,’ because I’m clearly in [Bethenny’s] radar.”
“Not only is there a lot to talk about Dorinda, Dorinda, Dorinda, but there’s a FASCINATION with my life and relationship with John,” she points out.
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
“How much crueler could Bethenny and my ‘dear friend’ of 20 years, Ramona, be?! So disappointed and sad — surprised and horrified, too,” Dorinda expresses. “Ramona broke my heart simply and purely. Even though we eventually move past it, it really angered me. Truly, madly, deeply angered me.”
Dang – Dorinda feels things. DEEP.
Before getting into the drama with Bethenny, Ramona, and John, Dorinda takes a moment to defend Jules Wainstein‘s domestic insanity. “Seeing Jules in her favorite place — home — being her favorite thing — a mom and a wife —brings me a huge smile and it really warms my heart. Home is where Jules truly shines.” If that was Jules shining, then I have no words…
“For anyone to criticize how she mothers and how she is as a wife is out of bounds. No one here is the poster child for a ANYTHING, and we’re all doing our best,” adds Dorinda. “Of course, even though Jules is a new moving target, there’s an elephant in the room, so to speak…John.”
“How about that phone call with Ramona and Bethenny? It was like Mean Girls on acid, just add a few decades here and there. Just really gross,” comments Dorinda. “Here I was, planning something cute and light and FUN for the girls (and only girls), but they were setting up some ambush between The Two Towers.”
Dorinda describes Ramona and Bethenny’s decision to confront her with viagra-gate as a “serious premeditated ambush.”
“This wasn’t a drive-by crime of passion, this was First Degree Ambush. Unbelievable and sickening,” she seethes, calling out Ramona and Bethenny for being “extremely hurtful” with “ZERO manners and discretion.”
“I know this game. I know what scrutiny is and what it feels like, and I know contempt like few others ever will,” writes Dorinda in her Bravo blog. “I respect Bethenny, and thought I was building a friendship, but who knows?”
SO, what makes Dorinda believe Bethenny and Ramona plotted to discredit her relationship with John? Well, the facts, according to Dorinda!
- Dorinda and John have”never” gone out with Bethenny “as a couple. Ever.”
- “He’s met her a handful of times, at best. We don’t even have friends in common,” adds Dorinda, “so her obsession with John and us as a couple is just plain odd.”
- Bethenny should “try sharing some real life time with us, try getting to know us as a twosome, and then go on and form her opinion.”
- “She’s taken the idea of ‘drive-by therapy’ and turned it into a marketing initiative. Please stop, B, it’s hurtful.”
Even worse: Ramona was repeating heresy from a “Star Wars crowd… still stuck living a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.” That coupled with their longtime close friendship made the hurt sting all the more for Dorinda. “Ramona broke my heart simply and purely.”
“It was wrong of Ramona to say it and just plain stupid for her to believe it in the first place,” she continues. “For Bethenny to suggest that Ramona’s clueless is just as ignorant as her own actions were arrogant. If either of them TRULY had my back, they wouldn’t grandstand in front of strangers and ruin the evening by humiliating me the way they did. Especially if they barely have a clue about my real relationship.”
“Ramona knows what she was doing, and John would never say that to someone!”
Eviscerating Bethenny’s warped versions of “realness” and “truth,” Dorinda wonders why Bethenny is so intent on being a hypocrite?
“I wish manners and discretion would lead her to talk to ME, in private, and voice her concerns,” complains Dorinda. “She wouldn’t like an ambush like this and, to be honest, couldn’t survive one if it happened. God forbid someone responds with some REAL TRUTH.”
Continuing with ‘realness’ and ‘truth,’ Dorinda is on the offensive about what really went down that night in the Hamptons, which Bethenny keeps alluding to.
Dorinda maintains that she spent the majority of the summer in the Berkshires avoiding the chaos and went to the Hamptons once.
“We ended up at Bethenny’s after visiting a few friends, including Luann, for a late-night dance party and a next-day brunch. The late-night party in her Skinnygirl pool house was filled with a bunch of other late-night revelers and friends and fire pits. We danced, we gabbed, we drank, we had a great Saturday night. Here’s the thing: There was one comment made about Hannah that I did not appreciate. Bethenny knows what I’m talking about. It got me angry, and I wasn’t going to back down about it, though I tried. The next day at brunch, I was still angry. But John was still manning the grill behind the pool for her and her 30 guests, because that’s what a gracious guest does…and he’s more than happy to do it. The comment the night before was not only unfair and out of line, it was also mean.
“That said, I didn’t expect our ‘off-time’ to end up as fodder for everyone. In the end, I’ll stay true to character and reiterate what I said at the reunion: ‘The good news is, I don’t give a sh–!’”
Because she’s a grown woman (except where Twitter is involved), Dorinda is choosing to focus on being happy. No matter what Bethenny’s opinion is!
Dorinda closes with some advice to Bethenny about how she treats the commoners she’s forced to inhabit Real Housewives Of New York alongside.
“The constant scrutiny and speculation is not only unfounded, it’s downright defamatory. I think you’ll see this labeling of peoples’ lives and lifestyles become obnoxious and get old really quick. Of course, I’m not the only one in her firing range. It’s sad and it hurts.”
Tonight is Part Two of Bethenny & Ramona Vs. Dorinda – and then enter John. What appears to be a very impaired John – who is forced out by a humiliated Dorinda. Unfortunately Jules finds herself caught in the cross-hairs between her two friends.
After all the drama, the ladies head to the Hamptons to celebrate Bethenny’s birthday, but then no one can move past the drama at Dorinda’s brassiere fitting party. Dorinda agrees to dinner with Bethenny and Ramona in an attempt to clear the air, but everything is left up in the air instead…
Reality Tea will be live-tweeting.

Harry Hamlin Says Lisa Rinna Misconstrued His Comments About Yolanda
It’s time for another round of figuring out what Harry Hamlin is up to. Instead of #WhatDidHarryDo this time it’s #WhatDidHarrySay?
At the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion Lisa Rinna revealed that way back when the season started, Harry insisted the everyone support Yolanda Foster‘s health journey, and Lisa Vanderpump reacted by complaining, “There goes our f–king storyline!” Except, that’s actually not what happened – at least according to Harry himself! He claims Lipsa actually put words in his mouth!
Good lord – Lipsa, Lipsa, Lipsa… close the lips, and lissssssten. Harry also adds that he doesn’t take all the craziness on the show seriously. Too bad his wife does!
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
“Well, what I actually said was ‘We really need to support her.’ I never said ‘whether she’s sick or not,'” Harry explains. “That was I think in the second time Lisa mentioned it, she said it that way. And I said to Lisa, ‘You know I don’t think I said it that way.’ And she goes, ‘Oh right, well…'” So… is Harry giving credence to the Munchausen theory?
“Obviously Yolanda needs support,” Harry continues to E! News. “Whatever she’s going through, it’s taking a toll on her and it’s very challenging for her.”
Harry points out that reunions are especially stressful. So that explains Lipsa’s break from semi-reality? “There are moments when you can kind of breathe a little bit,” Harry says about Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, “but not with the reunion.”
“The reunion is like a freight train that just keeps slamming right through, going through barricade after barricade. So, it’s just an onslaught.”
“At the end of the day, this is a TV show,” reminds Harry. “The only difference between this and a nighttime soap is the blood isn’t fake!“
Harry also defends his wife’s nemesis LVP. “She’s so funny,” he quipped.

Yolanda Foster Shades Her Co-Stars For Not Visiting Her When She Was Sick; Is Yolandas Hormone Butt Pellet Safe?
Despite her crumbling marriage and her questioning co-stars, there’s no doubt in my mind that Yolanda Foster enjoyed every second of attention she got this season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
#NotSoInvisibleSmirk #RoadToVictory #ChronicFameWhoritis #ThereIsNoCure
Yolanda live-tweeted during the reunion (because, attention), thanking Eileen Davidson for being a “good friend” and shading her doubting co-stars for not visiting her when she “dropped off the planet” because of Lyme disease.
CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!
To Eileen, Yolanda tweeted, “Thank you for being a good friend and standing up for what’s right, I admire your integrity. #LoveYou”
Yolanda went on to Tweet, “My baby girl @bellahadid just said it all; If they had visited you, they would have understood how sick you were. #Clarity #Truth”
Truth. Ha. Like the time Yolanda was sitting up (after not sitting up for 2 years, I’m sure) and reading (after not reading for 4 years, I’m sure, as well). Then, when Daisy announced she had visitors, she slumped down and pretended to be sleeping.
Shockingly (sarcasm) the subject of Yolanda‘s health came up at the reunion. When Lisa Vanderpump said Yolanda goes up and down hormonally, Yolanda boasted that her hormones are perfect because she has a pellet in her butt.
Yolanda made a point to say the “bioidentical hormone pellet” is natural and urged her co-stars to ask Daisy about it. Um. Call me crazy, but I wouldn’t take health advice from someone who wrote a chapter in the book Hos, Hookers, Call Girls, and Rent Boys: Professionals Writing on Life, Love, Money, and Sex.
What YoYo fails to acknowledge is that “natural” does not mean “safe.” A quick Google search brings up several articles that debunk the benefits of Yolanda‘s butt pellet, which costs hundreds of dollars a month.
“Promoters of compounded hormones claim that their products reverse aging, enhance sex, prevent cancer and, unlike FDA-pproved commercial hormones, have no risks or side effects. It all sounds pretty good. But like most things that sound too good to be true, it’s important to separate fact from the myths propagated by clever marketing,” wrote Lauren Streicher, MD, in an article titled Buyer Beware: “Bioidentical” Hormone Myths.
Since the FDA doesn’t regulate compounding pharmacies, they can make whatever claims they want. So, they tell women what they want to hear – namely that compounded bioidentical hormones have fewer risks, fewer side effects, and are more effective than standard hormones even though there is no scientific evidence to prove that claim.”

Report: Scheana Marie Sued For Excessive Pot Parties? Tom Schwartz Defends Her
Happy 4/20 from Scheana Marie stoner!? According to her neighbor, the Vanderpump Rules star’s apartment emits so many weed fumes he’s getting a contact high and has now filed a lawsuit against her. Whatever happened to Shay’s sobriety?
According to court documents filed by the neighbor, Scheana and Shay’s “weed parties” are so out of control (and so frequent), that living next door to her is affecting his family’s quality of health! To misquote Mr. Rogers, Dontcha be my neighbor!
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
Despite appearances to the contrary, Scheana and Shay reside in a fancy high rise building in LA where rents are equally high (did she move since last season of Vanderpump Rules when her apartment resembled where Goodwill goes to die?) – also high, allegedly, are Scheana and Shay. So high, that “marijuana clouds” are drifting through the neighbor’s walls. As a result the neighbor attests that his spouse and his children are getting nauseous from the constant fumes!
He’s also fed up with the noise Scheana and Shay cause, which, pun intended, is chronic.
That’s not all – Scheana’s neighbor is also annoyed with her ill-treated black cat, which is allowed to roam free and wander through the complex. Per TMZ, the neighbor claims Scheana leaves both the cat and its food outside, which attracts ants that have inundated his kitchen, bedroom, closets and bathrooms.
Scheana’s neighbor has not only filed suit against Scheana and Shay, but against the building management. He’s seeking a discount on his rent, plus damages.
Who would have thought Scheana would be the neighborhood narcissist?!
Possibly commenting on the lawsuit, today Scheana sent out a tweet advising us not to believe everything we read.
Scheana’s Vanderpump Rules co-star Tom Schwartz also calls bullshit on the report. He Tweeted:

Eileen Davidson and Lisa Rinna Have Nothing To Gain By Calling Out Lisa Vanderpump
Last night was the kickoff of the three part reunion for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and it didn’t disappoint, despite being The Yolanda Show. Eileen Davidson has much to say about this episode, throwing out digs at Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards, and sharing her empathy for Yolanda’s journey.
Eileen starts off sharing her true compassion for Yolanda Foster. “I’m deeply sorry for the pain that Yolanda endured during the first part of the reunion. Clearly she did not understand that her illness had become its own storyline to such an extent. I was disgusted and saddened and felt nothing but empathy for her as I watched her try to figure out what to believe. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: That chick is one strong woman. I have nothing but mad respect for her.”
CLICK THE CONTINUE BUTTON FOR MORE!
Eileen and Rinna are unfairly targeted for telling the truth (somewhere Brandi is vigorously nodding in agreement), “There’s something else I must address. Neither Lisa R. nor I have anything to gain by calling out Lisa V. It’s not like we get a bonus check from Bravo or a new BMW with a bow around it. No one throws us a pizza party. Nobody hands us a bunch of balloons. In fact, it makes our lives harder. Our honesty has made us targets for the hate and vitriol unleashed by Lisa V., her husband and her die-hard followers. So, I ask you all, with nothing to gain, and possibly our future on the show to lose, why would we do it?”
RELATED: LISA RINNA SAYS LVP PLAYS THE VICTIM WELL
She then goes in about Lisa Vanderpump’s former foes leaving the show, “Where have all the other women who had issues with Lisa V. gone? Oh yeah, they aren’t on the show anymore! The exception being Kyle, who tows the line of being honest without alienating Lisa V. so much it must be exhausting. And Yolanda, of course, and her relationship with Lisa V. is less than amicable. There’s always been a tense, weird energy between the two of them, and now I understand why.”
Eileen thinks Rinna was right to be scared of crossing LVP, “Lisa R. was afraid of the retaliation from the aforementioned sources if she went there with Lisa V. The backlash has only proven she was right to be afraid. Oh, and by the way, I was very hesitant as well. But at a certain point I decided enough was enough. Erika was being thrown under the bus for having good instincts about LVP, and I knew there was no going back. Again, I wasn’t manipulating Lisa R. to bring this to light. We both knew it was the right thing to do, but, rightfully, it was hard.”
She continues, “Lisa R. has nothing to gain by saying that Lisa V. said, “Well there goes the f—ing storyline,” after Yolanda left Lisa R.’s birthday. Nothing. Lisa R. has admitted everything she’s done this season. She was open about being the one who brought up Munchausen. She admitted to Yolanda that she was saying things about her, her illness and her friendships with Brandi and Kim behind her back. Let’s not forget how the Munchausen conversation started, either. Lisa R. said she “engaged in a conversation” and she felt guilty about it. She fessed up. Forget who may or may not have encouraged her to talk about it, she said it because she felt guilty. Then, she even fessed up to Yolanda about it, too!”
RELATED: YOLANDA LANDS A BOOK DEAL TO DETAIL HER LYME JOURNEY
She continues singing the praises of Rinna, “No one can claim Lisa R. is not an open book. No one can claim that she doesn’t own up to her words, even when she regrets them. It’s just her nature. Conversely, Lisa V. has denied any involvement with anything over and over again. She continues to refuse to admit the truth, despite it being made very clear in Dubai that she HAD tried to drum up drama by pitting Kyle and Lisa R. against each other. She said when we had dinner at Malibu Cafe that she never called Lisa R., but Lisa R. has the phone records to prove otherwise. Lisa V. called her many times to influence Lisa R.’s position. Yet she refuses to admit to any wrongdoing and refuses to stop vilifying the people who are merely pointing out things about her that she doesn’t want to admit. So, why would Lisa Rinna and I lie about this? The answer is: WE WOULDN’T.”

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Reunion Part 1 Recap: My Love Has Left The Building
I never thought I’d say this but the best thing about last night’s Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion was Erika Jayne-Girardi patting the puss. Aside from that it was all journeys all the time from the Yolanda Foster Files, which has more confusing story lines than The X Files (which actually isn’t too much of a stretch in the weirdness department!).
Lisa Vanderpump is wearing battle armor designed by Tom Ford. Initially it sounds like he made it for her, specifically, but then Andy notices Erika was wearing “the shirt version” in her interview talking head. The color looks better on LVP. Not wanting us to forget that she’s chronically ill – for even a moment!!! – Yolanda’s dress resembles bandages and medical gauze. I’m surprised she wasn’t wheeled out on a stretcher with Daisy insisting Glam Squads cause co-infections. Maybe her seat on the couch reclines?
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
Andy dives into the bizarre world of Erika, with her surprisingly traditional marriage. Erika hops up to give Pat The Puss lessons. Lisa Rinna, an excited newly converted Erika Jayne fan, wants to do it too, but Yolanda admonishes her to sit down like Lipsa is a wayward child. A chastened Lipsa sulks in her corner of the sofa. YOLANDA IS AN INSUFFERABLE WENCH!
Erika is one of those women who aggressively tries to pretend nothing bothers her. She puts on the full display of glitz, glamour, and a tough exterior taking ‘ownership’ of who she is, but it’s all a facade. Erika Jayne IS a facade for Erika Girardi, who is emotionally immature and afraid of people. It’s silly. No wonder she’s acquaintances playing made for TV besties friends with Yo – they mutually act as each other’s bodyguards. Next season, I hope Erika returns, Sans My Journeys Hadid-Foster-Hadid and we get to see more of her in her element. Maybe she’ll have figured out Yo’s twitter handle by then…
We must talk the other issue infecting Yolanda presently – her crumbled marriage to David. YoDa is no more, y’all, but David is feeling the freedom in Dagobah with Selma Blair. Yolanda doesn’t want to talk about the very personal issue that is her divorce. “It’s our journey,” she sniffs. Of course! However, even Yolanda’s Lyme Journey is only presented on her terms, and if you ask questions, you get accused of being a non-believer. Yolanda seems to see herself as a cult leader of sorts. How she has followers is a bigger confusion than Scientology. Case in point: when LVP wonders if she has menopause Yolanda insists she has a pellet in her butt and her hormones are checked monthly – she’s perfect!
Same thing with the notion that she could have depression due to her marital issues. Yolanda denies this, because in 1999 (when she broke her back) she had Chronic Depression, so she knows what depression feels like and it’s not Lyme! The women side-eye majorly as does Andy.
In confusing Yolanda timelines, she explains how she got sick three months before they married, then “dropped out of society” – except for the times she was filming Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills or attending A-List celeb parties alongside David. Yolanda insists David is a “wonderful man” but his humor doesn’t come across well on the show. She asks LVP to vouch for him – not her BFF ERIKA – and LVP does! Presently Yo and David are “taking a break” from communicating. Eep.
Yolanda explains the divorce “didn’t just happen overnight,” then clarifies that on November 2nd, the day before the premiere, they had a “falling out” and decided to consciously uncouple. So it did happen overnight? Surprised we didn’t get an #AboutLastNight Instagram about that part of her “journey.”
LVP, who has gotten aces about grilling Yolanda to get to the gooey center, wonders if Yolanda was “blindsided” by the divorce, because they seemed so solid. “We were solid,” argues Yolanda. Solid-appearing on camera, maybe, but not in real-reality. Finally, Yo admits to yes, she was surprised. “I didn’t think that was the end of the road,” she says matter-of-factly. “We came to a halt; it came to a dead end. It really doesn’t really matter. I’m not going to sit here and be analyzing our marriage. That’s really private between David and I and our family.”
Then, naturally, Yolanda claims David was the one who gave up while she had hoped to “fix their issues” once she was 100% well. I think that was the issue: David realized there’d never come a time when she was “100% well”. Yolanda believes if she was healthy they’d still be together. Interesting. When Andy asks Erika if Yolanda confided in her, Erika’s hair stands up on end like a Lisa Frank Sparkle Cat and refuses to answer.
Moving on, Andy turns his attention to Kathryn Edwards – but only temporarily. Sadly, Kathryn shares that her nephew recently passed away from a heroin overdose and admits she’s very emotionally raw. Still, she handles herself with dignity and speaks eloquently, even with Kyle Richards throwing a tantrum and cutting her off every 15 seconds!
I’ve never heard Kyle get more riled up than when she started shrieking at Kathryn about Faye Resnick! Kathryn wasn’t even saying anything nasty, untrue, or mean, she was simply pointing out the obvious: Faye made some really harsh allegations about Kathryn in her book, thus dragging her into the OJ Simpson narrative when Kathryn had, until that point, chosen to shield herself. As a result, Kathryn (and her first marriage) suffered. That’s horrible – and that, Kyle, my dear is why people do not (and never will) like Faye!
Stay off Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills if you don’t want people to talk ish about you, Faye! That’s like Reality TV 101, yet Fayme Whore comes back for more, time and time again. Maybe LVP manipulated her into it?
Kathryn does not back down from explaining her perspective to Kyle, which I appreciated. She wasn’t rude or mean about it, just honest. “You’re discounting my real life!” she explains. “I lived a really hard time – not because I wrote a book!” While Kyle is vehemently defending the morally corrupt Faye Resnick, Yolanda mumbles to Erika, “I wish she’d feel that strong about me.” OH MY GOD, YOLANDA – everything is NOT about you and your freaking Lyme! When have you have you ever been a good friend to Kyle?! How about … ummmm… never?!
Oh, Yolanda, poor maligned woman. She is a warrior, bravely sharing her journey – every gory detail… Oh, wait. Yolanda wonders why the women question her diagnosis…because Yo never gives a straight answer. About anything. She should go into politics because she filibusters and obfuscates so much.
When asked to explain Kathryn making comments about Lipsa’s eating habits, surprisingly everyone agrees Kathryn was teasing (“because I feel safe with you,” she tells Lipsa), and that Rinna does not have an eating disorder.
Moving back to issues no one can agree on, it’s time for Munchausen. This old dead horse again.
Lipsa claims her doubts began with Yo’s plethora of sick selfies. “I’m not inspired by them,” she admits. That led to a discussion with her hairdresser (who ironically was backstage – bring her out! bring her out! bring her out!) about Munchausen, which apparently is when LVP and Kyle started discussing it with Rinna.
Yolanda argues that Lipsa had “no basis” for her comments (bullshit). “It was just an observation,” Lipsa defends. An observation that is all LVP’s fault?
Yolanda complains that the women have no idea what it took for her to exert the effort to participate in the show. Then take FMLA leave and get well. Off camera. End of story. Yolanda doesn’t need the money, but I guess the platform for being an attention-seeking vulture is priceless.
LVP who knows from years of history how full of BS Yo is questions Yolanda about the many “confusing” inconsistencies between her claims and her real life – such as running around on scavenger hunts through Beverly Hills while saying she hasn’t been out of bed for three years. Yolanda has a non-answer to everything! However, I do love how LVP is over the nonsense and pressing Yolanda for solid answers. No one else is – they’re still cowering for fear that Lyme By Proxy may be catching and they’ll get co-infection contamination by coming near the mushroom peppermint pressure steamed breath of Yo.
Taking it way, way back to filming Lipsa’s birthday dinner, which is the gift that keeps on giving because, apparently, that’s where the speculation about Yolanda’s illness began. Lipsa claims that after Yolanda left early, Harry decreed that everyone must support Yolanda’s journey – no matter what she was suffering from – but LVP snapped her fingers and said “There goes our f–king story line!”
What does that even mean? That speculating about Yo’s illness would become the story line? Or that the women agreeing not to question Yo’s illness meant they’d have no story line? So that’s how LVP manipulated Lipsa into bringing up Munchausen? Errm… LR needs to ask for a refund for that BS she bought.
I’m against the notion of story lines – the premise of Real Housewives is that it’s a show about wealthy women living their lives as-is, and interacting with their friends. When you start dragging external (or manufactured) ‘agendas’ into the atmosphere to cause or create drama, it gets all messy and stupid (hence this season), and it never plays as authentic. It always results in a fight about a fight, everyone circling the drain about who said what – off-camera. Which brings me to my other issue: Lipsa needs to STOP breaking the fourth wall!
The entire second part of the season has revolved around a conversation that took place off-camera. At the reunion, Lipsa, once again, starts referencing comments made off-camera. Predictably, LVP denies making the comment, and Kyle says nothing.
Lipsa insists LVP called her to discuss Munchausen. LVP replies that she “very rarely” calls Lipsa at home, prompting Lipsa to yank out phone records (Worst. Prop. Ever.) thus “disproving” that LVP “never” calls her – which LVP never said. “Very rarely” is not the same as “never.” This mixed interpretation of words is exactly what the whole argument of “drag Kyle into it” was about…
Sure enough, Lipsa points to 10 – only TEN! – times that LVP has called her, ergo “very rarely,” like LVP said. Furthermore, that doesn’t prove what was discussed during these 10 illicit phone calls made in the dead of night under the cloak of disguise deep in the valley where Brandi roams, house to house, looking for a place to lay her thong.
So, we’re right back where we started, with nothing cleared up, nothing resolved, endless words saying nothing. To the victor go the spoils – the spoils of Yo’s friendship, I suppose. While this ‘gob-smacking’ reveal about the horrors of LVP is happening, Erika cackles like a witch (not a good look) and Yolanda dabs at some fake tears Daisy Visine’d into her eyes while the cameras were catching Lipsa’s victory dance.
The questions about her illness are all too much for tender Yolanda. She rushes off stage, Erika chasing after her. They scramble into Andy’s dressing room. I’m sure the producers were all drawing straws and hoping to pull the “Not It!” one to avoid dealing with the latest Lyme Looniess.
Look – anyone who took a look at that “med closet” knows that Yolanda is a mess and her illness might not be merely Lyme, chronic or otherwise. Kyle clarifies that no one questioned whether or not Yolanda had Lyme Disease, but they were wondering if something else may have contributed to it. “We don’t understand Lyme,” says Lipsa directly. Yolanda argues that it’s her “full time job” (she should be fired) to not answer questions about Lyme, and insists the women did ask and she informed them how they were all 100% wrong.
This season has devolved into a hunt for an invisible disease, that may or may not even exist, and the information is not out there (said in an Agent Mulder voice). At this point no one cares about the alien co-infections that is Yolanda’s delusion, which has simultaneously infected the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. If Yo’s health and sanity can’t handle being on this show, quit! If Lipsa can’t handle behaving like a grown woman with her own mind, get a conservator. If LVP and Kyle can’t handle having an honest friendship, joke’s on them. If Eileen Davidson (was she even present?!), can’t deal with LVP asking questions about the choices she made, even if they were impertinent questions, figure out why she didn’t handle it right then in there by asking her to stop. If Erika can’t open up and form real connections with these women, go cower among your glam squad sycophants and be done. And Kathryn, surprisingly, I got nothing – you turned out to be a’ight!

Big Brothers Rachel Reilly & Brendon Villegas Baby Name Revealed!
Big Brother showmance couple Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas have announced the name of their new baby daughter and it’s so cute! The former showmance couple turned real life husband and wife welcomed their new addition to the family earlier this month. They kept hush-hush on the name, however, waiting until now to announce it to the world.
Rachel and Brendon’s baby daughter was born April 8 in Los Angeles, and weighed in at 6 lbs., 10 oz. From the baby pic the couple posted on Instagram, the little sprout is also incredibly adorable. So it seems the name picked out by her parents couldn’t possibly suit her any better!
The newest Big Brother family baby was named Adora Borealis Villegas, a moniker inspired by her ancestry and Rachel Reilly’s fascination with the Northern Lights.
“We came up with the name Adora because we adore her, she’s ‘Adora-ble,’ and we wanted a Spanish name to celebrate her Hispanic heritage,” the couple told People. “Borealis was Rachel’s must-have middle name because she’s always been infatuated with the natural beauty of the Aurora Borealis.”
Well, Adora Aurora probably would have sounded a bit of a mouthful if they’d gone with that choice instead!

Stephanie Hollman Defends Brandis Poop Hat; LeeAnne Locken Needs To Loosen Up
To me, Stephanie Hollman comes across as a spineless people pleaser – not to mention a bit of a ditz – on Real Housewives of Dallas. But I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised by her blog this week. Stephanie makes a lot of good points while defending her bestie, Brandi Redmond, and calling out LeeAnne Locken.
Stephanie expresses her appreciation for the Mad Hatters luncheon, adding, “I do not mind splurging on clothes, jewelry, or a great handbag that I can wear or use for other events but, I cannot bring myself to spend thousands of dollars on a hat that I will only wear for 2 hours. Brandi and I thought it would be a cute idea to make our own hats for this event. I was excited to do an arts and crafts hat project with Brandi. I knew it would be fun and give us a chance to catch up on everything that happened at Marie‘s cocktail party. Also, I felt the need to come clean about writing LeeAnne an apology email and was nervous on how Brandi would take it.”
CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!
On why she emailed LeeAnne, who didn’t deserve it in my opinion, Stephanie shares, “LeeAnne has the reputation as someone who will do whatever it takes to ruin the reputation of anyone she feels like she cannot control or manipulate. I did not want to deal with the aftermath of a war with LeeAnne and hoped to smooth things over for Brandi. Brandi knows that I am a people pleaser. I’m still learning to create boundaries and have a voice. I do not think Brandi was mad at me, I think she was frustrated that LeeAnne was playing the victim.”
Stephanie thinks Brandi‘s “poop in the park” hat was “hilarious” and “epic.”
“You could not tell there was fake poo in it because it was tucked away inside the hat,” she defends. “It was an inside joke only known to Brandi, Cary, and I. Secondly, many people in attendance complemented and took pictutres of her hat. She received so many compliments that at one point I wished I had worn a poop hat too.” That said, Stephanie admits, “Brandi and I are different in that I like to blend in and be understated, and wearing a huge crazy hat would make me uncomfortable.”
RELATED: Brandi and Stephanie Dish On Real Housewives of Dallas
Stephanie calls out LeeAnne for trying to shame Brandi, and points out that that is not in line with the spirit of the event, “Charity events are a way to come together, have fun, raise awareness, and bond. The time spent at an event tearing down with the intent of exclusion is a complete breakdown of the magic of giving back.”
Mirroring my own thoughts about LeeAnne, that she needs to remove the stick from her ass takes herself way too seriously, Stephanie adds, “LeeAnne takes everything so personal and serious that she needs to loosen up a little. She is always mad at us for something even when it doesn’t affect her.”
Stephanie insists Brandi‘s hat was a perfect fit for the “fun, fantasy, no rules” luncheon, concluding, “In my opinion, a truly charitable person is gracious, kind and nonjudgmental. They celebrate anyone who has the heart and desire to give back. Public shaming is unacceptable but even more so at an event known to encourage over the top creativity.”
Hands down, the number one most annoying thing about Real Housewives of Dallas is Brandi‘s obsession with poop jokes. A close second is LeeAnne. For me, she is a cross between Karen Huger (with her delusions of grandeur) and Brandi Glanville (with her jealousy issues). When the poop jokes cease to exist (I mean, they cannot possibly go on all season, right?), I will gladly root for Brandi and Stephanie.

Kyle Richards Shares Secrets About Dubai Plane Ride
I wasn’t even in Dubai with the Housewives, but even I was feeling the tension as I watched the Beverly Hills ladies on their Dubai trip. I don’t know about you, but I was extremely uncomfortable the entire time. And apparently there was even more drama than we got to watch on TV. Kyle Richards shared secrets about the plane ride home from Dubai that did not make the cut for Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
I figured that the ladies would have been worn out from arguing about the same exact thing over and over again, but I was wrong. Apparently they could not even sit next to each other on the plane ride home without coming to blows, so Kyle decided to to take things into her own hands to try and prevent even more craziness from occurring.
CLICK THE CONTINUED READING BUTTON FOR MORE
In an interview with Page Six, Kyle shared some details that did not end up on RHOBH. Kyle did not hold back when she said, “The plane ride home was a nightmare and there were no cameras there.” As we are all (painfully) aware, the Housewives were still up in arms trying to figure out if it was Lisa Rinna or Lisa Vanderpump who started those rumors about Yolanda Foster having Munchausen Syndrome instead of Lyme Disease. It is the argument that that will. never. end.
Just like the rest of us, it seems like Kyle was so over the controversy since she decided to take matters into her own hands and talk to the plane’s crew members about the seating arrangements on the flight. Kyle revealed, “I don’t think I told anybody this, but I had to get the list from the flight attendant of where we were sitting, and they kept telling me, ‘I can’t give that to you,’ and I was like, ‘I need it, trust me. A lot of us are sitting in this section and we need to move some people around.’”
So how bad did it get? It was pretty much the worst arrangement possible. Kyle said, “They had the two Lisa’s sitting next to each other and I was like eh, might want to move that around.” That has to be the understatement of the century.
I would have loved to see how the other passengers would have reacted to a Lisa-on-Lisa smack down during the flight. That would have been a great time to have the cameras rolling, but I am just so confused. Based on this story, it sounds like the women were on a commercial flight. I figured they would have been on one of Erika Girardi‘s two private planes. And the fact they were flying with the regular folk is really the most shocking part of Kyle‘s story.

Dance Moms Recap: Hip Hop Flip Flop
Wait, I’m confused…Dance Moms is going to go on without Maddie? Do you hate us that much, Phil Collins? In the wake of Melissa’s announcement, the ALDC team wants to soak up the last few weeks they have with Maddie and MacKenzie. While they’re obviously sad to see them leave (at least the girls are), it’s clear that everyone is excited for what’s to come in Maddie’s skyrocketing career. Jill believes that even though she’s not showing her true feelings, Abby Lee Miller is secretly seething over the news. In other new, Jill is a candidate for MENSA.
At pyramid, Abby rakes her team over the coals for a second place group number, but it’s a step up from not placing the week before. JoJo is on the bottom, and she jokes that she’s been on the bottom a lot lately. This child’s attitude is everything, but Jessalyn objects to JoJo’s placement–she worked hard and did well last week! Abby rips JoJo’s picture from the pyramid, yelling, “We’ll move her!” before placing her at the top of the pyramid and laughing. JoJo is thrilled. Jessalyn is thankful Abby didn’t throw her daughter’s head shot on the ground and stomp on it. If I were everyone in the studio, I’d be slowly backing away…it’s clearly a sign that Abby’s about to go totally loco. Brynn is now the bottom-most dancer for not dancing, with MacKenzie on her heels for not showing enough emotion in her duet with Nia. When MacKenzie tears up, Abby warns her not to be a crybaby. Emotions are only for the stage! Speaking of, Nia’s dancing was emotional and beautiful, but only third rung of the pyramid awesome. Kendall, Maddie, and Kalani make up the second tier in that order. She praises them all.
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
At this week’s competition, JoJo and Brynn are granted hip-hop solos. JoJo exclaims, “That’s my girl!” before high-fiving Abby. This kid has grown on me so much. Ashlee and Brynn look nervous , but Ashlee is quick to assure herself the viewers that Brynn is exceptional at hip-hop. She’s not just some one-trick contemporary pony! MacKenzie snags the last solo which is an acro hoedown number. She begs for a hip-hop routine, and Abby retracts her solo. Holly intervenes to remind Abby that MacKenzie is only here for a few more weeks and has never gotten a hip-hop solo. What’s the harm? Abby retorts that they can do whatever they want before storming out and citing MacKenzie’s request as dumb. Holly feels like Abby is punishing Melissa by being hateful to MacKenzie. At least Gianna can assist with the group number, right? Jill urges Melissa to request a hip-hop routine for her daughter after never asking Abby for a MackZ solo. Holly wonders what Melissa has to lose. Taking their advice, she heads to Abby’s office, but Abby starts screeching and slamming the door, killing a defenseless boom mic in the process.
The moms are in shock regarding Abby’s behavior (um, why?), and Ashlee is concerned that Brynn isn’t getting enough practice time due to Abby’s issue with Melissa. She decides to approach Abby who assures her that Brynn and JoJo will be doing their hip-hop solos…but not MacKenzie. NEVER MACKENZIE! A producer (talk about breaking that fourth wall!) intervenes, calling out the fact that Abby told the moms they could make the choice for MacKenzie’s solo. Doesn’t she remember? It was right before she stormed out of pyramid and killed his mic? He’s happy to replay it for her to jog her memory. Abby screams like a woman possessed. The mothers don’t run the studio! She sneaks out the back, and Holly and the moms try to head her off to get her to do her job. Abby laughs manically before peeling out the parking lot. Abby calls Holly and gives her an earful…she’s going to the beach and Holly can run the studio. At least MacKenzie has scored her hip-hop solo!
Ashlee is hoping that Abby is watching the footage of her kissing arse in Abby’s absence. Ashlee lectures the veteran moms that Abby is clearly upset about Maddie’s departure. Holly and Jill argue it’s something bigger–Abby has lost control. Ashlee counters that perhaps Abby just needs support. Seriously? Jill drones on and on about how the moms left their other kids and husbands to be in LA everyday for Abby. That’s not support? Thankfully, Gia interrupts the brewing debate by inviting the moms in to watch the solos. MacKenzie buckles under stress and flees the studio before Gia can yell at her. Before Gia can say a word, Melissa confirms that yes, MacKenzie does need to grow up and face the pressure. Holly follows Mac and provides a much needed pep talk. I do love that no matter how much the original mothers may get peeved at each other, they are always acting as bonus moms for the entire team.
The following day, MacKenzie has her head back in the game, and Holly is thankful that Gia can step up to the plate and be an actual adult when it comes to teaching choreography. Not missing a beat, Ashlee continues needling Melissa…isn’t it weird that Abby doesn’t want to be more involved given it’s MacKenzie’s last competition? Doesn’t she care about MacKenzie? Abby saunters into rehearsal and she’s about a stage four on her five stages of crazy. The hot rollers are a dead giveaway. Abby demands to see the group number, and she’s yelling critiques at Maddie and MacKenzie left and right. She sums up Maddie’s performance as shooting Gia’s choreography before shooing everyone out of the studio so she can conduct private lessons.
At the competition, everyone is wondering about Abby’s whereabouts until she bursts into the studio, blinged out with a ball cap, yelling “Moms betta have my money!” which she follows up with “Black people said it was hip-hop week.” The mothers are floored. “She did not just go there,” Holly muses. Jill is less than entertained by Abby’s antics. Abby refuses to break out of her Gangsta’s Paradise persona, and Jessalyn finds it odd that Ashlee is dressing Brynn to be a JoJo clone. JoJo performs first, and she’s got her signature sass and hits all the moves. However, I don’t think her choreography is all that special. Ashlee is convinced that Brynn is going to dance JoJo under the table. Brynn proves she’s not just a lyrical dancer with her routine–precious. Nia pumps up MacKenzie before she takes the stage (like mother, like daughter!), and she totally rocks her routine…I’m not going to comment on whether it was age-appropriate.
Backstage, Jessalyn teases Ashlee about Brynn’s outfit. Melissa cackles that Brynn isn’t the new Maddie, she’s the new JoJo. Ashlee tries to defend herself and it turns into a screaming match. She then goes crying to Abby who wonders why Ashlee even cares what these banshees think. The group routine is amazing, flawless. This is why I watch the show. At the awards ceremony, JoJo’s solo places fifth with Brynn snagging fourth. MacKenzie shows Abby with a first place win. The group number also nabs the top spot. After the awards, Abby criticizes MacKenzie’s performance before leaving. Ashlee and Jessalyn get back into their tiff, and the more upset Ashlee gets, the more Jessalyn giggles and sneers. Jill and Holly try to diffuse (do they?) by rapping about lyrical dance.
