Why must you do this to us, Dancing with the Stars? All we wanted was to see some musical performances and find out who went home, and instead, yet again, we were subjected to an hour of...
And the first show of the 2016-17 TV season to get a full-season pickup is...not a surprise whatsoever! This Is Us, a.k.a. NBC's tear-jerking new drama that debuted to huge numbers...
At first, it was pretty hard to like Kelly Dodd, but now that we are pretty far into this Real Housewives of Orange County season, it’s hard not to feel some sympathy for her. It’s clear that she is dealing with a lot when it comes to her struggling marriage with her husband Michael Dodd. It might even explain her behavior has been a lot for the ladies to handle. Even Heather Dubrow-who infamously walked out on that sushi dinner because she wanted nothing to do with Kelly- cannot help feeling sad for Kelly ever since she opened up about her marriage.
Previously, Kelly revealed that she and her husband Michael have already split up, dated other people, and were this close to getting a divorce. At first, it seemed like a sweet love story where the time apart made them realize that they were meant to be or something like that. However, the latest episode made it clear that things did not really go down like that- at all. Heather has revealed her mixed emotions when it comes to the Dodds‘ marriage.

I have not been a huge Kelly fan this season, but it was just so sad seeing her cry throughout this whole episode. It really seems like her relationship is taking a toll on her and that she does not know what is best for her and her family. Even though Kelly and Heather’s relationship got off to a rocky start (to put it lightly), Heather explained how hard it was to watch Kelly go through her struggles in her latest Bravo blog entry.
Heather revealed, “I shed so many tears watching this episode, but first…” Yep, that last episode definitely was a sad one. The Housewives were really going through some tough things.
Heather also admitted, “I was so sad watching Kelly and Michael. It must be very hard to try and put a marriage back together after a separation and other relationships.” And on top of all that, Kelly and Michael’s troubles are playing out in front of an often critical reality TV audience.
Heather also said, “When we were at the spa she shared a lot of details about their life together. Totally broke my heart. I wasn’t sure if I was rooting for them to stay together or to separate…life is too short to be miserable.” Not that I actually know Kelly, but I had the same thoughts when I was watching the episode. I understood all of Kelly’s fears involved with separating from Michael, but at the same time, it was so awful watching her be so sad in the marriage. My heart was really aching for her.
I also feel like Heather doesn’t get enough credit for being a caring person. Yes, she has this uptight image and the ladies even nicknamed her “Fancy Pants,” but Heather really does seem to have a big heart when it comes to these important things, which is something I noticed during the episode with the dune buggy accident as well as this one.
Sure, Heather and Kelly are far from besties, so it could be pretty easy for Heather to rub her seemingly perfect life in Kelly’s face as some sort of punishment for Kelly’s behavior, but she didn’t do that. For instance, Heather gets upset that her husband Terry Dubrow works a lot, but no one is questioning the love in their marriage the way Kelly is with her own husband. The Dubrows are so much about each other that they even got a vow renewal.
No, you didn’t miss an episode or an Instagram post about this. The vow renewal actually went down fifteen years ago, but Heather is just talking about it now. So why did Heather get married twice? Usually people do that after they overcome marital struggles or to get some time in the spotlight, but Heather and Terry were actually thinking the opposite and had a super low key renewal just for themselves after having a super lavish wedding the first time around. In an interview with Bravo’s Personal Space, Terry explained why they decided to renew their vows: “So I’m not sure I experienced the actual one-on-one moment of our vows, so I wanted to do it again, just Heather and I without anyone else there.”
Would Heather and Terry renew their vows again for the Real Housewives of Orange County viewers? I mean, they are kind of arguing a little bit these season about Terry working so much. Could it be a good way to end that story line? Plus, Shannon and David Beador had an honestly moving vow renewal this season. Terry said, “So we’ve done it. Will we do it again? No. Unless she gets so mad at me for something stupid I do that I have to do that. And I still wouldn’t do it on television, I don’t think.” I don’t blame them, plus it really is a little too much of a reality TV standard at this point.

I have no idea why people hate on Amber Rose. It’s cool that she’s made a career solely of being herself. I know that’s common these days, but Amber is definitely one of the best at it and I cannot knock her hustle. Plus, she actually has some articulate things to say when it comes to social issues. I know Amber is not an entertainer in the traditional sense, but she is making some major moves and going on a world tour.
No, Amber is not taking her new moves from Dancing With the Stars to do some sort of performing. In fact, Amber is going to do what she does best and just be Amber – which is apparently worth a lot since she is reportedly getting paid $8 million to do this.

I have no concept of how much these tickets would cost, but I think it would be interesting to talk to Amber Rose. This woman has no filter. My only problem would be narrowing down what I would want to ask her.
According to Daily Mail, Amber will go on tour in 2017. Just in case you are still kind of confused by what this actually means the article says this “will feature interactive segments centered on sex and love, special guest interviews, and personal anecdotes about her rise from exotic dancer to female icon.”
Amber has no issue spilling the tea and for a reasonable ticket price, I would be down to check this out. Apparently I’m not the only one who thinks this since she is getting paid $8 million to do this. If someone is paying Amber that much money just to be Amber, then it’s safe to assume that she is expected to deliver a heavy return on that investment.
No specific dates or location have been released yet, but Daily Mail did mention Chicago, Las Vegas, Atlanta, New York, and Miami as possible cities so look out for a more specific announcement eventually.

When you think Mandy Moore, early 2000s probably comes to mind. She was everywhere. Mandy popped up in The Princess Diaries, tore our hearts out in A Walk to Remember, made us laugh in...The animosity between Shannon Beador and Vicki Gunvalson is very intense during this season of Real Housewives of Orange County. They’ve barely appeared on camera together, but the shit talking and refusal to hang out with each other is dramatic enough. Vicki crossed the line when she decided to talk about Shannon’s mother-in-law hanging out with and preferring David Beador’s mistress over Shannon during a group trip to some mud spa.
How does Vicki “know” all of this? She heard gossip around town and she definitely believes it. Wow. Those are some cold hard facts, Vicki. I get that she hates Shannon because Shannon refuses to be friends with her, but does she not get that talking about the Beador family on a TV show hurts Shannon’s three children more than anyone. Classy move, Vic. Well, obviously that scene did not sit too well with Shannon.
CLICK “CONTINUE READING” FOR MORE
Talking about Shannon’s family drama and using nothing but supposed gossip as “evidence” just makes Vicki look bad. I don’t get what she thought she was doing other than making some juicy television. I would be absolutely livid if I were Shannon, David, or one of the Beador girls- who I’m sure watch the show from time to time. As expected, Shannon was upset with Vicki’s out of turn comments and voiced these thoughts in her latest Bravo blog entry.
Shannon didn’t hold back when she said, “I can’t tell you how shocked I was to hear the women’s conversation at the spa. Honestly, Vicki is just plain cruel. She is taking this opportunity to embellish the truth to hurt me.” Vicki just made herself look horrible by instigating this gossip fest behind Shannon’s back. I figured she would be on her best behavior since she is so polarizing these days, but then again she is the “OG of the OC” for a reason so maybe she was just trying to create a salacious scene for the show.
Shannon explained that Vicki is the person least likely to know anything personal about her relationship with David: “Vicki has no idea if David was happier in his affair. My husband chose to renew our vows on his own and we are incredibly happy today. I have not had any in depth conversations with Vicki in a year and a half. She knows nothing about my personal life.” Right. It looks like Vicki was just desperately trying to trash Shannon in all honesty.
I also thought it was super childish that she just based her knowledge of Shannon’s family life based on some rumors she supposedly heard. Shannon had some similar thoughts and also clarified that they don’t even live in the same town (or anything close to that): “And for Vicki to say that OC is a small town, I just have to point out that Vicki lives nowhere near me — she’s about 45 minutes away.” I honestly just feel like Vicki made that shit up and used “hearing gossip” as a scapegoat.
Shannon really hit Vicki hard with this one: “We didn’t shove anything under a rug. It’s been two and a half years and we have definitely worked through a lot of hard times. Nice try though, Vicki. Sorry it didn’t work out the same for you.” That’s cold, but damn I could totally see Vicki being jealous that the infidelity in the Beadors‘ relationship wasn’t resolved in any of her own. Shaking. My. Damn. Head.
It looks like the craziness is far from over since Shannon ended her blog with: “And how about the scenes for the rest of the season??? Trust me, it is mind blowing!” I cannot wait. That preview looked insane.

As much as I love everyone on the show, it has turned into the Thomas Ravenel and Kathryn Dennis show since pretty much all everyone does is talk about the on-again-off-again couple. We need more and not only that, but we could also use another woman in the cast to even things out a little more. That’s why I’m so interested in the news at the reported casting of Eliza Limehouse.
You’re not the only one who feels clueless when hearing this name because I had no idea who she was until I saw her in one of Cameron Eubank’s Instagram posts with other cast members, but it is being reported that she is the newest addition to Southern Charm. If she’s interesting, then I really hope that this is true because the show really needs some new life.

The photo that Cameron posted with Eliza also included Whitney Sudler-Smith and Landon Clements at a polo match which makes me believe that this girl is at the very least appearing on the show. I’ve always found the casting for this show to be a little weird since there is a wide age range of people and it just seems like the friendships are all random, so it’s not shocking to me that FitsNews reports that Eliza is only is only 19. But then again, a big part of this show centers around the cast at drinking events, so I’m not sure how that’s going to work. I’m just hoping that she gets with Thomas because I feel like that would make some great TV.
But anyway, Liza is the daughter of Chip Limehouse who is a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. He has a polo team called Limehouse Produce which Eliza plays on, which makes sense since that’s where Cameron’s Instagram photo took place.
I have no idea how Eliza fits into this group, but I am obviously intrigued.

I don’t think we’ll have to worry about any Big Brother Over the Top cast showmances this go around. My first question about this group… Did the casting people start in the south and forget about the northern states? Were they just so mesmerized by the southern hospitality that they decided half of the group needed to have a southern drawl?
Did the drama caused by our dear houseguests from northern states during BB18 leave a bad taste in their mouths that not even the strongest of mouth washes could get rid of? No matter what happened, y’all better have a southern friend on speed dial to translate for some of these people. I will be available for southern slang lessons for a limited time.
Lesson one: When we say, “Bless your heart,” IT IS NOT A GOOD THING!
Anyway, here are my first impressions of this new batch of Houseguests.
Kryssie Ridolfi
It’s female Paul. The end. #friendship
Scott Dennis
Steve is trying to go back in the house undercover. He thought we wouldn’t notice. But we did. Ian 3.0?
Michael “Cornbread” Ligon
My “first person to be evicted” radar is going off. I hope my radar is malfunctioning though. I’ve never met someone whose name is some type of food that I didn’t like. And I’ve met more of those people than you would think. Please also imagine the look on Jason’s face when he meets ole Cornbread. It’s priceless.
Danielle Lickey
Dear Big Brother gods, and Allison Grodner. Please let Danielle be what we all hoped Zakiyah would be. Sincerely, me.
Calling it now: She’s going to try to start a big female alliance.
Morgan Willett
Oh for the love of the live feeders who watch feeds wearing ear buds. Please. Please. Do not be obnoxiously loud.
Is she going to try to keep the fact that her sister (or whatever relation they may be) is also in the house? Just a little tip… Don’t even try.
Justin Duncan
Please see below for Justin’s strategy:
Alex Willett
I like her. I’m all about the quirky.
Please see Morgan’s section for her game tip.
Monte Massongill
So help me, if this is Corey 2.0, I’m out.
Neely Jackson
I am genuinely concerned about her hair during competitions. I’m just thinking about the messy competitions… She’ll be finding that crap in her hair during BB20. I can’t think about this anymore. It’s causing me stress.
Shane Chapman
Pretty sure I saw him on the cover of a spicy romance novel at the library the other day. I was on my way to the nerd books, so don’t judge me.
Shelby Stockton
She describes herself as a loudmouth and obnoxious. So I’m really looking forward to her on the feeds. Psych, not.
Whitney Hogg
Bless her heart.
We are certainly in for an interesting time with this bunch! I’m really hoping Jason joins this gang. He won’t know how to handle all the southern-ness they’re about to lock up in that house. Let the game begin!

We’re moving on, we’re moving backwards, and we’re moving into straight crazy territory on Real Housewives Of Orange County. Who isn’t on the edge of their seat after that preview for the rest of the season? In a war between Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge, it was always a toss-up, but then Tamra found Jesus through jumping jacks and Vicki got ‘duped’ by her own desperation, so now I don’t know… It’s probably still a toss-up!
Apparently Bravo is using Tamra as some sort of Kelly Dodd reflecting pool. Like, ‘Oh remember way back when when Tamra was an irascible ‘naked wasted getting’ bitch throwing wine in her friend’s faces? But now that she’s found the ever-supportive Eddie, she’s calm and centered.’ Like Kelly could be that too if she divorced Michael. I don’t know. Crazy is as crazy does, and crazy takes advice from Tamra and Vicki!
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
Tamra has (slowly) improved in the post-Simon years. Maybe it’s Eddie, maybe it’s her “pasture,” maybe it’s Mia’s worshipful abs of steel. I do like Eddie, however. Other than the bathtub porn scene of yore, he seems refreshingly non-famewhorish, rational, calls Tamra out on her crap, and provides her with perspective.
Eddie needs to lend those services to Vicki, because she’s decided that to redeem herself from the Brooks cancer scam, she’ll be a spokesperson for the charity Kill All Cancer. Which isn’t actually a charity, but some sort of insurance to buy in case you get cancer? Whatever is going on here it seems vaguely scummy – if only because the director of Kill All Cancer decides Vicki is the perrrrrrrfect representative for promoting cancer causes. Somewhere Meghan Edwards‘ head would be exploding if she weren’t so preoccupied with not having twins. More on that later.
Honestly in what universe would anyone want Vicki endorsing their cancer charity? The director pretends to have NO idea Vicki was accused of perpetrating a cancer scam with Brooks, and then he shrugged it off as no big deal because Vicki has commercial appeal. I didn’t even know my eyes could roll that hard. Even Vicki’s son Michael, who was present for the meeting, openly scoffs at how ludicrous this is. He’s the one who brings up that Vicki once dated a man who lied about having cancer. Vicki argues that she was at the hospital – she saw the bone aspiration port! – but Michael runs interference to point out that Vicki was only in the waiting room. Oh, Vicki – forever in the waiting room of life, selling insurance in the event shit gets real. So yeah, Kill All Cancer – how about kill that idea!
Across town, Kelly and her Michael are arguing while painting the garage. See, Kelly is a perfectionist, so she expects the perfect marriage, culminating in the perfect divorce. Divorce proceedings ended when her dumb attorney couldn’t convince Michael to sign off on a massive settlement. That is, naturally, Michael’s fault.
These two are in a horribly toxic relationship. I’m sure they’re both mean and aggressive to each other in some ways, and I don’t think Kelly is faking or exaggerating her anguish, but I think this raw anger is in a large part Kelly’s own regret projecting onto Michael. And to a certain degree, I assume, she feels powerless about her life. If she forgoes Michael, she forgoes the OC lifestyle – the money, the fabulous house, the designer purses, but if she stays, she forgoes her own happiness and autonomy. It’s a pickle. And not the palate-cleansing kind!
Kelly confides in her mom, who stayed married to Kelly’s dad for over 20 years, despite being miserable. That’s really… depressing. Kelly’s main reservation about divorcing is because Michael will try to get full custody of Jolie and then Kelly could wind up in Tamra’s situation with a daughter who may not speak to her. That is an awful reality to consider, but probably all the antics Kelly (like Tamra) has pulled on this show aren’t speaking much to her degree of sanity and stability.
If your marital situation was so rocky, wouldn’t you be reading the Heather Dubrow Manaul of Decorum and Deportment For Surviving Bravo? Or at least the bible, Camille Grammer’s Pernicious How-To’s For Fabulous Image Rehab (chapter 1 discusses how to blame your awful philandering evil husband for allowing you to look like a bitch on television as his parting gift). It sounds like Kelly should do a little self-help, before stepping back into the ring of divorce proceedings!
Meanwhile, Meghan is now opening a candle store. Huh?! When life gives you Jimmy Dad Jeans, make candles instead.
Meghan finally manages to find Jim in order to drag him along for their first ultrasound appointment, and holy pregnancy boobs, Meghan! Meghan has a healthy baby inside of her (yay!), but she bursts into tears when she realizes it’s just one baby, not twins. I’m sure the doctor was wondering about the strange man consoling Meghan while she sobbed at the sound of her baby’s heartbeat, but in Dr. Potter’s line of work (and in his line of ex-wives), I’m sure he’s witnessed some crazier things than a blob of play-doh coming to life, transforming into a man, leaning over to hug a pregnant woman in the stirrups.
Luckily, Tamra has just what the doctor ordered – a healing trip to a spa known for its mud baths for the “Glammath Four.” Do they sell t-shirts to support the Glammath Four survivors? Heather scurries around the corner at the sound of a cork popping. “This makes up for the time you almost killed us,” Heather trills in the toast.
They strip down to go wade in some hot mud, which was funny because that’s where they started slinging mud about Shannon Beador‘s marriage. I totally forgot to even talk about Shannon’s descent into a closet-vortex moving fiasco. Shannon waited until the day-of to NOT PACK the 13,500 square-feet of closets in her non-toxic mansion, which resulted in her frantically stuffing stuff into plastic garbage bags (BPA TOUCHED SHANNON’S STUFF – OMG!).
Realizing that her non-toxic house brought her nothing but toxins, Shannon and David are moving into an ode to 1980’s design, which just happens to be walking distance from Kelly’s house! Is that Feng Shui or fate? “I’ll know where to go if I ever need to borrow a cup of tequila,” snarks Shannon. Which… I mean, that actually sounds like a positive in neighboring relations to me?
Shannon may be giving up her “hospital-grade air,” but she’ll also be leaving behind all the bad memories of that time David had The Affair. Oh, had you heard David had an affair?
When they finally arrive at the rental property, Shannon is shocked to find all her baggage scattered everywhere, walling her in like a tunnel. As she struggles to escape the labyrinth of her own past, David gropes blindly for the alcohol. Might be time to pay a visit to Kelly! (Or hire movers.) It was interesting seeing Shannon hyperventilate among her boxes and boxes and bags of just, well, stuff – as if Shannon was confronted with the reality of the facade she so carefully constructed with expensive tchotchke. Her house was her “fourth baby,” but it did nothing but conceal all her unhappiness in formaldehyde-free finery, leaving her without WiFi and cut off from the real world in which David was out there having an affair. And not only that, but introducing his mistress to his mother! Like, what?!
Did you know Shannon’s MIL hates her? Apparently everyone in the OC knows this. Sort of like everyone in the OC knew Brooks didn’t have cancer. But Shannon’s MIL hates her so much she actually encouraged David to leave Shannon for his mistress, and socialized with David and the mistress on a regular basis. Given that we know Shannon’s MIL is going around town talking crap about her, and that Heather heard rumors way-back when, I sort of believe Vicki’s ascertain that it was common knowledge.
Back in the mud bath, Vicki informs a shocked (but smirking) Tamra that Shannon’s MIL felt David was happier with Mistress Nicole, and wanted him to divorce Shannon. Also that Nicole met David’s family on several occasions. Heather confirms this and she heard it from Shannon, actually. Tamra cannot stop her mouth from dropping open at the excitement of such judicious gossip. As Vicki reminds us that David’s affair went on for a year+, so the eyes of OC were watching!
After, Tamra fills Vicki and Heather in on the rest of the drama that went down at the LOCK concert. Vicki shrugs that while Shannon didn’t ‘push’ David to cheat, people who are happily married don’t cheat – and Vicki would know! Look – gotta agree with Vicki here. I don’t think Shannon is responsible for making David happy, and David’s decision to have an affair was his own making, no matter how many excuses he makes or that he claims his father cheated so that’s what he saw, but in general, I don’t think happily married people cheat. Or actively make plans to leave their wives by introducing their mother to the mistress. That’s next level cheating.
Also, the similarities between David’s mother and Shannon are scarily striking – David’s mother is controlling, histrionic, prone to outbursts, holds grudges, and has never gotten over her husbands affair… Even Eddie mentions that he doesn’t know how David stands Shannon’s drama. O-U-C-H.
After mud, the ladies get massages in rooms built for two. Tamra and Heather pair-off immediately, leaving new couple Vicki and Kelly together. During the massage, Kelly opens up about how awful things are with Michael. She sobs that he’s so disrespectful he screamed “shut up!” at her in front of Jolie and a friend. Worse, he did nothing to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Even worse, when Kelly bought herself a new purse, he accused her of getting it as a gift from another male. He’s controlling and Kelly admits it’s hard for them to trust each other after their 2-year separation and acrimonious almost-divorce.
Vicki, who is not only crusading for cancer, but marital reunification, has re-branded herself as counselor, and encourages Kelly not to give up like she did with Donn. Although even Vicki is aghast that Kelly didn’t get an anniversary card from Michael – “I like a card,” she chirps. We know. Oh, boy, do we know how much Vicki likes a written affirmation! Isn’t that HOW she got ‘lured in’ by Brooks, of the phony Hallmark sentiments and the greeting card a day makes the rational thinking go away?
Vicki doesn’t want Kelly to have a lifetime of empty love tank that she’s desperate to fill. “Getting divorced isn’t fixing it,” Vicki explains. After all, look where divorce got Vicki – first with Brooks, then sleeping alone, frantically trying to jump start her own engine. Vicki also astutely points out that Michael isn’t solely to blame for their issues – it takes two people to make a marriage work and two to make it fail; whether those two people are Shannon and David, Kelly and Michael, or Vicki and Donn.
Kelly is at a cross-roads: should she stay or should she try again to go? She is so emotional, which translates to loud, that Tamra and Heather overhear her in their own massage hut.
Those that can’t do, teach – so although it is absolutely, resolutely, insane to take any sort of relationship advice from Vicki, I think all her points were pretty sound. Too bad our Persecuted On The Cross Of Empty Love Tanks And Recycled Hallmark Cards Vicktim doesn’t take her own advice!
So, is Vicki gonna start selling divorce insurance in case your marriage doesn’t last? She could call it Kill All Love: Protect Your Best Asset – your love tank heart!
After massages, the ladies all meet up for lunch and drinks, and to decide what on earth one wears to “cocktails at the candle store,” aka Meghan’s grand opening.
Tamra compares her situation with Simon to Kelly‘s issues with Michael. And Kelly wearing her hurt on her designer sleeve – Tamra has been there too. But thanks to Kelly, Tamra now has a name for Simon’s nefarious manipulations – narcissist. Tamra warns a sobbing Kelly that divorcing Michael will be worse than staying with him in some ways, but so much better in others. Even Kelly’s mother wants her to divorce Michael, but she just can’t even fathom living without her daughter every day and she just has no idea what to do. It’s a tough situation.
When you are turning to Tamra and Vicki for marital advice, things have got to be bad. I mean, who’s next – Meghan?

Ever since I saw the trailer for this season, I have been looking forward to the Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga vs. Jacqueline Laurita screaming match, which I’m hoping will be featured in the next episode (FINALLY).
This trip had to be pretty hellish to go on – especially for someone like Siggy Flicker, who goes out of her way to be on good terms with everyone in the cast. That itself has to be a difficult task, but in the middle of the Jacqueline-centered madness, I imagine that Siggy had to feel beyond awkward.
CLICK “CONTINUE READING” FOR MORE!
As per usual, Siggy is the neutral Switzerland in this group. She’s really trying to make a character out of being the peacemaker which I’m not one hundred percent buying if I’m being truthful, plus it’s not the most entertaining thing to see on TV. She needs to get some story lines of her own other than interfering in other people’s relationships. Yeah, I get that she’s a “relationship expert” and all, but I still don’t really see what she’s bringing to the show. It’s great that she wants to be nice and bring everyone together, but has she not seen this show? It is all about the verbal disputes.
Siggy talked about how uncomfortable she was on this trip in her Bravo blog. I feel like if the cameras weren’t around she would have been checking these women left and right, but instead we got a blog about wanting everyone to get along without sharing any actual opinions about the episode.
As expected, Siggy lamented, “I felt so uncomfortable on this trip, and I just wanted to protect my friends from getting hurt and/or into trouble…and then get the hell back to Jersey. For crying out loud, we are all adults; high school was over YEARS ago. I don’t want to partake in any gossip or B.S. — I just want to have a good time with my friends.”

That is COMPLETELY valid for normal people to say about real life, but this is reality TV and that thrives on conflict. If she wanted to hang out with mature adults who made a respectful effort to get along, she shouldn’t be on this show.
Siggy explained how she wishes everyone acted like her and plugged her career as a self-proclaimed “relationship expert,” of course: “At this point in my RHONJ journey, I’d like to remind everyone that I don’t have a magic wand. I can’t force people to behave the way I think they should behave. In all my years as a relationship expert, I’ve only been able to find success with parties who are willing and able to participate and really want to do everything they can in their power to make it work. I love providing people with the tips and tools to revive their relationships, but again, I am not a magician; it ALWAYS takes two to tango.”
Real Housewives of New Jersey would not work if every person on it was just like Siggy. She brings zero story line to the table. Trying to be a mature adult with perfect behavior just doesn’t make for good TV. I honestly think she is just trying to make peace here so she can put it on her “relationship expert” resume. I mean I don’t blame her – it would definitely be a major feat in her line of work. But yeah, I just don’t want to watch that.
