Eileen Davidson shares her thoughts on this week’s episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She explains what was running through her mind during drinks with Dorit Kemsley and Lisa Rinna, helping to facilitate Erika Jayne‘s Y&R gig and more.
Eileen made Erika‘s dreams come true when she gifted her with a role on Young and the Restless. Eileen shared that the meeting with the producer went very well, “I knew Mal and Erika would hit it off and Erika would handle the meeting like a pro. But, the fact that she inspired Mal and he wants to read her is huge. That doesn’t happen every day. Nine number one hits and now she’s going to be on Young and the Restless? Is there anything Erika can’t do? To answer my own question, she certainly cannot, and she will not sink Young and the Restless!”
On Dorit leaving some things out when they met up for drinks, “When Dorit brought the pantygate situation up to Lisa R. and me at Tart, she said it was a ‘crazy thing that happened.’ Dorit only told us that PK was ‘uncomfortable,’ which seemed like a reasonable reaction. I think I speak for Lisa R. and myself when I say the vibe we got was light-hearted. We had no idea the things that were being said about Erika. And neither did Erika herself, until Dorit gave her the underwear at the Escape Room.”

She wants to clarify that she had no ill meaning behind what she said, “When I said to Dorit I wanted to be there when she told Erika, I absolutely did not mean it in a sinister way. I meant that I thought it would be an interesting conversation, because I thought Erika, in true Erika fashion, would shut it down. I feel really bad for Erika through all this. She just wanted to drop the whole thing, but it really has taken on a life of its own.”
On the Escape Room exercise, “It was fun, stressful, and really good for us as a group to work together as a team. Maybe the Escape Room can inspire us all to move past our differences and support each other in a common goal?” But then she adds, “Annnnnd then I see a preview for next week’s episode and I may have to rethink that whole “teamwork” thing.”

On last night’s Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, we learned that Dorit Kemsley and her her husband Peek-K are obsessed with Erika Girardi‘s vajanynejayne. Dorit was patting Erika’s puss more than an Erika Jayne dance routine!
Dorit told everyone that PK not only had seen the Girardi family jewels, but appraised them for value at length. I think Dorit believed the reveal that Erika ‘forgot’ how to use her lady-like manners while wearing a white micro-cocktail dress was supposed to make Erika look bad. Honestly, though, Dorit’s non-stop complaining and over-analyzing, combined with Peek-K’s stalkerish staring, over what was essentially a wardrobe faux pas in poor taste, made Extra-Cheesey Dorit look worse.
As Erika herself surmised, the entire situation was, quite frankly, fishy. Like, why was Dorit so intent on telling everyone? What Eileen Davidson dubs ‘The Crotch Chronicles’ (or “SnatchChat”) becomes what Peek-K saw up Erika’s skirt. According to Dorit: everything.

First Dorit told Kyle Richards, then Lisa Vanderpump. Who then told each other and had a good-natured laugh over the exposing situation. I can understand telling them – they were at the same event. Especially because Lisa had herself a look when she went right up Erika’s skirt. Lisa jokes that Ken was jealous he didn’t switch places with PK, but in all honestly I can imagine that Ken would feel annoyed that Peek-K just sat there and looked.
But then Dorit told everyone else, until she finally told Kyle again, and finally-finally confronted Erika not once, but twice in a truly awkward way! Like girl – you were giving the situation a pap smear, and the results were abnormal! It says more about Dorit’s insecurities, possibly even in her marriage, than it does anything else, but I think we’re seeing that in general Dorit’s confidence seems a bit put on and contrived? She seems to require a lot of reassurance from what she wears, to what she drives, to the shape of her kid’s head, to her importance in the world…
On the positive, Dorit and PK got the plastic helmet removed from Little Phoenix‘s previously ‘deformed’ skull. Looking at the before and after scans, it seems to me that the kid’s head looked normal for a newborn – especially if Dorit had a vaginal birth. I’m truly saddened we don’t get to hear alllllll about that ala Lisa Rinna! Like maybe the whole misshapen head drama was just that: a drama over Dorit’s obsession with aesthetics. That baby is gorgeous though.
Lisa and Ken have other concerns than Erika, like the Vanderpump Dog Foundation. After the success of the Yulin Dog March campaigning outside a Baptist church last year *haha!* the organization has gained traction with local government, and is now headed to congress and beyond. Locally, however, Lisa and Ken are donating money to rescue organizations. Ken is escaping the fools on Vanderpmp Rules to volunteer with the far sweeter and more nlligeiteandont abponed cohes.
RELATED – Lisa Opens Up About The Vanderpump Dog Foundation
They visit one such rescue where Lisa threatens to adopt every other dog, and is finally warned against it when one the doggies shats on her designer blazer. How cute was Ken bathing puppies?! Actually Lisa fell in love with Ken on one of their early dates when he saw a dog on the side of the road and stopped the car to help it. Some people fall in love over a puss, and others over a pooch!
Meanwhile, Eileen has Erika visit the Y&R set to discuss her future guest part. Erika is nervous, but gives us a lecture about how now is her time to shine in life – which I believe was once a nascent Housewives tagline (Taylor’s perhaps) – and everyone comes into their success at different periods. Erika is apparently teaching us a lesson about the power of a middle-aged woman as bankrolled by Tom G‘s millions?
Erika tells the Executive Producer that she might be perfect playing a Hooker Next Door, even though she’s just a shy gal from Atlanta with big dreams of stardom in her eyes, and a prayer cloth under her skirt! Eileen believes that a high powered executive may be a better test of Erika’s ‘acting’ abilities.
Meanwhile, Lisa Rinna is in Westchester, PA, hawking ‘dusters’ which are the height of coolness. In Harry Hamlin‘s QVC millions mind. Lisa is selling on and off for a 24-hour period. At one point, Lipsa becomes so delirious she hallucinates that she left her teenage daughters unattended in NYC and that Eileen called in to order 5 polyester plaid ponchos.
Afterwards, Lisa jets back to LA and immediately runs to grab a drink with Dorit and Eileen. #Priorities Dorit is wearing some sort of plastic stripper heels – maybe she’s hoping to channel a little of Erika’s ‘leave nothing to the imagination’ to capture PK’s attention?
These three ladies were having fun together laughing and joking, until Dorit mentioned you-know-what. Eileen, who is strangely fiercely protective over the ‘sweet and naive’ Erika, gets that sour puss (pun intended!) look on her face, and listens-on warily to Dorit’s tale of how Erika’s figurative lack of panties in a twist. You can tell Lipsa just wants to burst out laughing. Dorit decides she ultimately wants to let Erika know it happened with a joke to prove she doesn’t care about ‘What Peek-K Saw.’
Lipsa intrinsically understands what’s bugging Dorit: Dorit is confused about whether or not this is normal Erika behavior, or a one-night stand. Like is there a little more Erika Jayne in Erika Girardi than she lets on? Or is Erika really the shy, reserved dutiful wife she professes to be?
Lipsa and Eileen insist it’s the latter, but Dorit goes off unconvinced to shop with Kyle and plot her panty joke.
Oh Kyle – life is so challenging: bopping around L.A. in too-tight clothes, wrangling the compression garments she calls a wardrobe, and making the difficult decision not to cast her own daughter in a sitcom about her own dysfunctional childhood. Even worse, Maurice is constantly traveling! Well luckily Kyle gets plenty of breaks to cavort with her lady friends and shop for buttons with Dorit.
RELATED – Kyle Talks Surviving Real Housewives With Heather Dubrow
Honestly, I feel like Dorit needs her daughter’s special helmet, because her sense of perspective appears deformed. In her mind she has this fabulous lifestyle which behooves her several nannies, because she’s sooooo busy shopping and gossiping and buttoning she couldn’t possibly be bothered to spend time with her precious children. New motherhood is hard, you guys! Has this woman ever even changed a diaper?!
No. Instead, Dorit is setting out to change Erika’s underwear. While shopping with Kyle, Dorit announces she’s going to let Erika know PK looked up her skirt by giving her a pair of sheer knickers as a joke. Dorit plans to give the gift of ladylike good taste during Erika’s upcoming “Escape Room” event.
Kyle cackles that she can’t wait to see Erika’s reaction. Too bad Dorit couldn’t even wait until Kyle walked in the door.
Nearly as soon as Erika arrives to the Escape Room facilities Dorit launches on her and thrusts the little box in her face like a kid overly excited about telling a joke and giving away the punchline before the joke is even completely told. Erika’s face freezes – eyes wide.
Dorit just goes on and on about how PK looked and insists she’s laughing about how Erika’s puss is so pretty, and insisting it’s not awkward between them, and then joking that she hopes Erika wouldn’t do it on purpose, until Erika tells her that Peek-K should’ve either said something (like what ‘Hey your vag is sticking out’?), or moved. Erika eventually warns Dorit to just stop talking about it immediately. While this is happening, LVP and Kyle wandered in, clearly disappointed they missed the whole show. It’s the first time these ladies have ever been relieved to see LVP’s smirking face over their shoulders.
Finally, the escape room host saves them from themselves by leading to a place where they must use their minds coupled with team work to escape a confined and creepy place, which resembles Carlton Gebbia‘s house! LVP and Eileen are naturally placed in the same group, while Erika is trapped with Lipsa and Kyle. Shockingly, the ladies manage to escape if only because they are so desperate to escape each other it motivated them to work together.
Afterwards, they need to emotionally eat. I mean, they were briefly confronted with a future of being trapped in Carlton’s house with each other for all eternity! Of course the emotional turmoil over pantygate resumes because Dorit cannot. stop. fixating. on. it. She even suggests discussing it privately with Erika another time. However, Erika is convinced that PK and Dorit are lying and he wasn’t actually able to see a thing, yet they’re just trying to make her look bad. Interesting…
Erika treats Dorit like iceberg lettuce and picks through her comments, barely batting an eyelash, which means that despite what she says, she is far from over it! Eventually, LVP intervenes to ask if the ladies are good? Well, they claim to be.
Erika loves the panties so there’s that. Although I bet she tossed them in text trash outside the 7-11 on her way home!

Get ready for Taken, Bones-style. Bones' final season is almost here (Jan. 3) and it's jumping right back into the drama from the finale, with the team desperately trying to find...
Everyone who watches Real Housewives of Orange County knows that Vicki Gunvalson has not always been lucky in love- and that’s putting it mildly. I’m not going to rehash her romantic history because I feel like all of the viewers are way over all of that, but it does seem like things are going well with her new boyfriend Steve Lodge. In fact, Vicki is showing off some Louis Vuitton luggage that her man got her for Christmas.
I’m trying so hard not to mention the name of Vicki’s most infamous ex, and it’s really killing me not to- but I feel like Vicki bragging about Steve getting her a super expensive gift is another one of those “I’ve moved on- for real” signals to the RHOC fans.

Vicki took to Instagram to brag about Steve getting her a Louis Vuitton suitcase. She put up a pic of the luggage along with the box it came in. In the caption, Vicki wrote, “I must have been a very good girl. Thank you @lodge4anaheim for my beautiful LV suitcase. I love it! Can’t wait to go on our next trip together.#hesakeeper #knowsmytaste#merrychristmas.”
This gift (and Vicki’s post about it) says a lot about their relationship. First off, it’s an expensive gift which means that Vicki is finally in a relationship where she doesn’t have to pay for every single thing. So that’s definitely a plus. Second, it can be interpreted as a symbolic gift that signifies that Steve intends to stick around and take trips with Vicki in the future. And obviously the post is Vicki’s way of showing off that she has a boyfriend and all that shit. Personally, I feel like the best couples are the ones who don’t share everything on social media, but the lines do get blurred when it comes to reality TV couples and other people in the public eye.

The world may have lost an icon when Carrie Fisher passed away on Tuesday, Dec. 27 at the age of 60, but viewers haven't seen the last of her just yet. In addition to the upcoming Star Wars...Last night, Marissa Hermer rejoined the Ladies Of London ranks, and not-so-subtly aligned herself with this season’s official Caroline Stanbury haters. Julie Montagu seems especially relieved that her co-conspirator is back in the saddle, ready to ride or die for the cause – as long as that cause is talking trash about Caroline.
When Marissa meets Julie, Sophie Stanbury, and Adela King for lunch, the anti-Caroline camp closes ranks quickly, musing about how unhinged their nemesis has become lately. Sophie plays dumb about why Caroline is being so meeeeean! And Marissa smirks that she thinks Caroline just has her panties in a wad about Sophie becoming friends with Julie. She also snarks that Caroline’s move to Dubai will be challenging, given her inability to make or keep friends easily. Ouch.

At Baroness Caroline Fleming’s London pad, she’s whipping up some sort of experimental cuisine, destined for her newest cookbook venture. She’s written three cookbooks already, and hopes to wander through the mushroom and blueberry fields of her mind to dream up more recipes – recipes which she needs to put food on the table, people! Caroline scoffs at the stories circulating about her getting a $400 million settlement from her divorce. Bah! Where do these stories come from? she muses. “I have to work,” she states plainly. Well, that’s news to me!
Meeting hubby Cem for lunch, Caroline S discusses his recent Paris trip, which has her looking forward to spending more time as a family when they move to Dubai. Caroline tells Cem she feels Sophie’s disloyalty keenly. Cem points out how Caroline has been witness to some of Sophie’s lowest moments, and that Sophie is likely not maliciously “going after” Caroline now. She’s just trying to please everyone and getting alliances twisted up in the process. Caroline knows she’s stubborn, but simply can’t understand how her sister in law could suddenly switch allegiances to a pack of friends she’s just met over her.
At Julie’s home, she and Luke are washing dishes (with a Mapperton tea towel, one presumes) and stressing about their eldest daughter, Emma, departing for the University of Edinburgh soon. Julie dreads the day when she’ll be stuck at home with all boys soon. And by home she means Mapperton. And by Mapperton, she means A TITLE. (Lest we forget.)
Across town, Marissa and Matt are enjoying time at home with their boys and baby Sadie, who apparently made it through her time away from mommy and daddy in one piece. After the nanny takes over, they head outside to discuss Marissa’s anxiety – especially about Matt’s sudden urge to move back to the States. She doesn’t want to pick up their lives and split to LA! Her life is in London now, and this year has brought enough adventure already. Matt is not on the same page. He wants to cut and run NOW.
At Caroline S’s home, she and surrogate husband Luke are visited by Rania, former business partner and current friend. Rania brings clippings of Gift Library stories to remind Caroline of the mess they made of their business. Wow. Rania is either the worst friend on the planet or she gives no f–ks. Either way, she sort of rocks.
Caroline can’t look back on this mess for a hot minute before diverting her attention to Dubai, which she sees as a clean break. She swears she’s not running away from her problems though, as legal issues follow you everywhere! Even to the Middle East! She is especially side-eyeing Marissa for smearing her lately, as Matt has his own kettle of fish to boil. The very public brawls at his club, Boujis, for example, should be enough to silence Marissa on all things public sh*tstorm.
Back at Julie’s, she’s helping Emma get ready for the Leaver’s Ball, a mash up of our prom/graduation with a lot of binge drinking added in for extra spice. What could go wrong?! Emma tries on her dress, which is simple and beautiful, and which makes Julie cry. Not a tough feat, admittedly, but perhaps the tears this time are warranted. Julie can’t believe she only has four months left with her daughter. It’s a Seasons In The Sun moment, ya’ll!
In Denmark, Caroline F and old buddy Ulrich are visiting her family estate, Valdemars Slot. Which sounds very Game Of Thrones yet looks like the “after” shot of Mapperton – if Mapperton were suddenly gifted four billion Euros for remodeling and blown up to ten times the size. It. Is. Stunning. And this is why Ladies Of London cannot be canceled, Bravo – like, ever. We are being served ESTATES here! Things called VALDEMARS SLOT are scrolling across our screens, and I don’t even care what a SLOT is at this point. I just want more of them!!! #ReleaseTheSlots!
What was that business about Caroline F having to sling cookbooks for a living? Because this estate does not look like anyone within reach of it needs to sully their fingers in dough mixes and arugula. But Caroline claims that, yes, today’s nobility do need to do such things to maintain their estates. In the days of yore, agricultural tenants who were taxed within an inch of their sorry lives would support the hamlet. But today, the royals gotta go all gang signs on their cushy past, renting out buildings for weddings and selling gift shop chotchkies – and cookbooks! – to pay the massive bills for upkeep.
Caroline wants to ensure that her children inherit a successful, profitable estate, not pile of bricks that become chains around their tiny titled necks. (Cough, cough – Crapperton!) So, her stockings and recipes will save the day? Hmm.
Back in London, Adela and Sophie are taking a stroll and discussing Sophie’s strained relationship with her ex, Alex. Adela can sympathize, as she’s gone through a painful separation with her ex well. Chat turns to Caroline S, who neither woman thinks is being a very good friend at the moment. Adela is going through two court cases related to custody of her children (at least it sounds like that), and Caroline is nowhere in sight to support her these days.
Adela has struggled with addiction and rehabs over the years, facts that her ex has used against her when it comes to the kids, she claims. Why isn’t Caroline supporting ME? wonders Adela. Sophie calms her down, reminding Adela that Caroline just can’t cope with her own life right now. Especially without her “army of people” supporting her.
Marissa has decided to host an event for the ladies to celebrate her post-natal self. This celebration includes panty party favors, watermelon martinis, and possibly the most tragic blue jumpsuit I’ve ever seen. (Did Juliet Angus advise this look!?!?) When Julie arrives first, she wonders aloud why Marissa is so cheery? Didn’t homegirl just “almost die” and everything? Downing a shot, Marissa maniacally cackles that she’s FINE! Really. Just fine.
As they ride to Marissa’s soiree, Juliet and Caroline S dread their first event with Marissa, who neither of them trust. Marissa likes to come off as sweet as pie, muses Juliet, but she’s actually a sourpatch b-tch. I don’t think either of them have to worry about Marissa today, though. After they see that jumpsuit, they’ll understand that fashion karma has already served its cold vengeance. Dayum.
In another car, Sophie clutches a tiger stone close to her chest, a talisman to ward off evil Caroline S spirits that might visit her at Marissa’s party! Adela laughs that Sophie might actually need a real tiger. For all of Sophie’s histrionics about “positivity” and “no drama,” she sure as sh*t seems to be focused on how awful Caroline might be to her rather than how awful she equally was to her own sister in law (which began this entire mess, incidentally). Adela just seems generally freaked out. Rightly so.
As the ladies assemble at Marissa’s bar party, things start off light and fun. Marissa suddenly just “loves” Adela, who is conveniently on the outs with Caroline S at the moment. So – bonus! When Caroline and Juliet arrive at the party, kisses are exchanged all around, except between Caroline and Sophie, who thinks her stone (and Marissa-gifted sage) is protecting her. Adela is also deftly avoiding Caroline, but knows she must eventually have a conversation with her. And here it comes…right now!
Off to the side, Adela apologizes for upsetting Caroline S at Mapperton. Caroline feels like Adela is trying to prove something to this new group of girls. She wonders where this spiteful tone is coming from? She doesn’t expect a constant a$$ kissing, but she does expect their long time friendship to trump these new hussies. Adela blames her recent moods on personal issues, which include a moment in court with her ex who told her she has no chance of getting her children back. Which, if true, sounds hideous.
In tears, Adela admits she’s in a state of rage right now. She’s in pain, but Caroline doesn’t want her to take that pain out on her. “I’ve tried so hard to change,” sobs Adela, who doesn’t want to be in a fight with Caroline. She’s got deeper things going on in her life that need attention. Caroline advises Adela to stop fighting so hard for something that her children (who are apparently old enough to decide which parent they want to see) make their feelings known. I kind of get Caroline’s point here, but once again, her delivery leaves a lot to be desired. Adela doesn’t want to hear these cold, hard facts right now. She just wants a friend to comfort her.
Caroline does come around to the comforting bit finally, promising Adela it will all work out in the end. And that Adela will meet a fabulous guy one day who makes her forget this nightmare ever happened. Calmed down a bit, Adela admits her 25-year friendship with Caroline goes deeper than any of these trite issues among the ladies do. And that Caroline does have a huge heart…deep down. “We don’t get to see much of it, but she’s definitely got one somewhere,” Adela jokes.
As for Sophie and Caroline, well…their status is “to be continued,” it seems. They’re in a cold war, and those wars often involve tall, impenetrable walls.

Meeting your childhood idol can sometimes be a disappointment. But when Tina Fey met Carrie Fisher, it was a dream come true. Ironically, Fisher played Rosemary Howard, Liz Lemon's...
Although there have been rumors of trouble brewing for months, I’m actually pretty surprised (and saddened) to see reports that Tiny Harris (Tameka Cottle) has filed for divorce from T.I.. I just stalked both of their Instagram accounts there are no recent pics of the two of them together, but I just figured that solid couples didn’t need to flex like that. Apparently, I was wrong.
Nothing has been officially confirmed, but there are reports out there that claim Tiny is the one who filed. Sure, T.I. and Tiny have been through their fair share of split rumors, but I just chalked that up to being a standard problem that comes with being a high profile couple. I feel like the most naive person in the world, but I really thought they were in it for the long haul. I just love their adorable reality TV family. This is some super sad news- if it’s confirmed to be true, I mean. There’s still part of me that’s just hoping that these reports are totally false.

Although there have been rumors of trouble in paradise for a while, People confirms that Tiny “reportedly filed for divorce.” Yes, you read that right. I’m not really actually confirming anything, I just have a confirmation of a supposed story, so this could be false-but I trust People, so I’m rolling with it. Not only that, but the People story is based on a TMZ report, which is also usually on point. And in other news, I’m just trying to use whatever wording I can to not confirm the veracity of this story.
Ridiculous semantics aside, TMZ reports that Tiny filed for divorce in Henry County, Georgia. As of now, there is no official statement from the couple and I’m not seeing any subtweets or shady posts on their Instagram accounts. This means that I’m still holding out hope, but who knows. It seems like 2016 is the year that love died, so this does coincide with that misery.
The couple have been together forever, but they got married in 2010. For now, the fans will just have to wait and see if they put out a statement and keep refreshing their social media accounts if there is no official verdict.
Update: TheDirty has the divorce docs.
