Eden Sassoon “In Love With Love” – And With Lisa Rinna’s Hair

Eden Sassoon "In Love With Love" - And With Lisa Rinna's Hair!

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS -- Season:7 -- Pictured: Eden Sassoon -- (Photo by: Richie Knapp/Bravo)

Eden Sassoon is in love with her debut on Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills this week – and has the hashtags to prove it! In her blog, Eden details her connections to Lisa Rinna and Kim Richards, and how her background has brought her where she is today.

Eden provides some backstory on her Pilates business: “After having two kids and a marriage that was falling apart, Pilates became my escape from reality. But, the reality was that I had stopped taking care of my mind, body and soul. Being the man that he was, my dad questioned what he saw falling apart and breaking his heart at the same time. He simply asked me, ‘What are you going to do with your life?’ I took that question to heart…and to therapy. Then I opened my first of two Pilates studios six months later. I wanted and needed to pay it forward to other women going through the same issues. Watch out world, here I come! #GameOn”

Excited to host Erika Girardi and Lisa R at her Pilates studio, Eden shares that she enjoyed her time with both ladies. (Ah, fresh faced newbie Housewife love!) “After 15 years of two degrees of separation, I was excited to have Lisa Rinna be a part of my world and my passion…Erika was reserved but rightly so! She was meeting a new person and was about to get her ass kicked by Amanda (our Eden by Eden Sassoon Pilates instructor). I think it’s only a matter of time before she realizes that I am a love bug and easy to get along with. And boy did she rock that braid for class!”

Eden also loves Lisa R’s love story with Harry Hamlin, which began in the most romantic of places – an eyeglasses store (ha!). “As a single girl in love with love, I thought it was really cool that Lisa and Harry Hamlin met at the Beverly Glen Centre where I own my Pilates studio. It’s fate. #EdensLoveStory”

The love story of Lisa R’s hairdo continues as well, it seems! “Lisa’s Rinna’s hair is iconic, and in my eyes, she wears it so very well. But, just as a reminder, there is no hair more iconic than #VidalSassoon hair. “If you don’t look good, we don’t look good.” – Vidal Sassoon. #DontForgetIt”

Though she’s at a good – and sober – place in her life these days, Eden has some rough days behind her, which include the loss of her sister, Catya, who co-starred in Tuff Turf with Kim as a teenager.

“So about my interesting life… There were four of us #Sassoon kids, and now there are three. My sister Catya, who was larger than life, found her peace in drugs and alcohol and did not wake up on January 1st, 2002. She left behind three children and three ex-husbands. When I look back on the 80s and my sister’s acting career, specifically Tuff Turf staring Kim Richards, I remember thinking, god she’s amazing. I wanna be just like her. She was the “cool” girl that everyone wanted to be like. Everyone was so ALIVE in the 80s, but I didn’t know that it was the drugs and alcohol talking. Don’t let me fool you… I’m four years sober from alcoholism and understand the struggle.”

Now, Eden can look forward to the struggle of navigating the tangled relationships and petty drama of RHOBH! She wonders, “I wonder how game night will go? Will I be nervous? Will Kim remember me? Will everyone be drunk? Will I look good? Do I even remember how to play games? The only games I’m comfortable playing are with men!”

Though rumors have been swirling that Eden and Kyle Richards may butt heads this season, for now Eden’s only got kind words for her costar in her blog: “I love how Kyle is so proud of her man and just wants a little more attention. He says it’s hard creating a brand, and maybe that’s my problem… it’s even harder to keep a brand alive. #Legacy”

Porsha Williams Denies Implying Kandi Burruss Is A Lesbian Or Cheating With Shamea Morton

Shamea Morton & Porsha Williams

Shamea Morton & Porsha Williams

Another friendship bites the dust on Real Housewives Of Atlanta – this time Porsha Williams and bestie Shamea Morton are on the outs over Porsha‘s insinuations that Shamea and Kandi Burruss have been getting freaky.

Kandi and Phaedra Parks‘ feud is getting nasty: Kandi accused Phaedra of cheating on Apollo and Phaedra claimed that Kandi and Shamea had a fling. Porsha has now found herself in the middle.

“I was in a very uncomfortable position sitting there between two very good friends arguing,” explains Porsha. “I did and tried my best to help resolve the situation.”

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

“For the record, Shamea has not mentioned or told me that there is anything going on with Kandi other than a close friendship,” adds Porsha, backtracking on her comments about Kandi and Shamea. “I really wanted to remain neutral and that is such a hard thing to do when both people who I respect and admire feel passionate in their point of view.”

“There is no doubt that it is hard for all of us to keep friendships as strong as we would like them to be – especially when our words are continuously over analyzed, which almost always leads to our words being misinterpreted,” writes Porsha in her Bravo blog. “Good intentions can be easily be mistaken in these kind of situations.”

RELATED – Peter Thomas Complains About Porsha Williams

Porsha ultimately took Phaedra’s side and invited Kandi to lunch with the goal “to give Kandi another point of view and shed some light on the situation.”

“My intention with Kandi,” insists Porsha, “was to fight through all the noise and anger that Kandi felt and let it go once and for all.

“There is no denying that we all make mistakes, but my goal was that Kandi realized it is not a good look for her,” continues Porsha. “I did not want any kind of smear campaign against Phaedra to continue. It needed to end and be shut down. It is past time for each and every one of us to move on.”

However, Porsha hints, “It’s certainly possible that Kandi spread the rumors with encouragement from others.” She doesn’t illuminate on who that person may be.

Porsha should probably refrain from meddling in the future, because her conversation with Kandi did not go well, nor did her conversation with Phaedra. Phaedra was “very upset” about Shamea’s comments that she hit on Shamea’s ex-husband. “It was so hard for me,” says Porsha.

RELATED – Kandi Burruss Claims Porsha Wanted To Have A Fling

“I don’t ever want to see someone who I call a friend hurt in any way, and I pride myself on defending someone who I call my friend, but this situation overall was a very tough one for me. My hope is that we can all move on from it,” concludes Porsha. “I do not want to watch anyone feeling attacked or throwing any shade. With this group of ladies, if you throw shade out into their world, it will always come back to you. My motto — life is too short and I want to focus on only good thoughts and surround myself with those who I choose to spend time with.”

Shamea isn’t forgiving Porsha’s so easily, however. “When someone you consider a best friend will cosign a lie about you, it gives you a new definition of friendship! #hurt #girlcode,” she vented on Instagram. Yikes.

Bethenny Frankel Suing Attorney Over Apartment She Shared With Jason Hoppy!

Bethenny has drinks with Luann

Bethenny has drinks with Luann

You’d think Bethenny Frankel would be completely over dealing with attorneys, courts, and ex-husband Jason Hoppy after her extremely acrimonious 3-year divorce, but not so! Instead Bethenny just filed a $2 million dollar lawsuit against her former property attorney.

The Real Housewives Of New York star claims that Jason with the aid of an attorney screwed her in the purchasing of her $5 million dollar Tribeca condo, the ownership of which was at the center of their super messy divorce.

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

When Bethenny and Jason bought the apartment in 2011, (with the proceeds from the sale of Skinnygirl Liquor to Jim Beam), Jason, who at the time was working for Skinnygirl, suggested they put ownership of the property in a trust. Bethenny maintains she wanted the property to be solely in her name, but went along with the trust idea anyway.

RELATED – Judge Rules Bethenny’s Property Trust Invalid! 

Fast-forward to their 2013, after divorce papers were filed, per TMZBethenny was shocked to discover the trust gave Jason 50% interest in the apartment, plus the right to live there, without paying rent. Jason argued that his earnings also contributed to the purchase, giving them both the right to reside there rent-free.

Bethenny blames attorney Jamie Andrew Schreck for not clarifying the trust arrangement before filing the paperwork, thus making her divorce not only incredibly messy, but incredibly long! Her suit cites malpractice, fraud, notary misconduct and breach of fiduciary duties, claiming the attorney allowed Jason’s mother to notarize the property even though she wasn’t licensed to do so in New York state.

Bethenny and Jason sold the Tribeca property last year after their divorce was finalized.

Welcome To Reality TV, Dorit Kemsley! RHOBH Star Says We Might Be Misunderstanding Her

It's Dorit's World

It's Dorit's World

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newbie Dorit Kemsley might take some getting used to. After her pretty aggressive behavior and shade throwing on this week’s episode, she tries to explain herself in her blog. She had no idea that her words were going to be picked apart. Welcome to reality TV, Dorit!

Dorit starts off, “This week I feel things on the show got a little confusing unnecessarily, and I hope they will get straightened out soon. Hearing what Erika said about me was tough, but I guess I can understand it. She’s entitled to her opinion, but it’s still not nice to hear. Look I like to have fun and be playful and I’m an upfront and open person—I don’t hide things, Lisa V. will attest to that—and now it seems like me and Erika have gotten off on the wrong foot, but I really want things to settle down. I’m confident we can get past this, and I will definitely be trying to.”

Dorit explains the typical dinner party expectations at her house. “I love to throw a dinner party and bring people together to relax and enjoy themselves. Since Lisa R. told me that she was alone and her kids were away, I thought she should come and join PK and I at our dinner party. I was looking forward to getting to know her more. I guess it’s obvious that PK and I are opinionated, but we don’t mean to come across in a domineering manner—it’s just our way! We do respect other people’s opinions and love a good debate at the dinner table, and it’s OK if people disagree with us. For us, that’s a good dinner party: lots of lively conversations and viewpoints.”

She thought Lisa had a great time at the dinner party and Dorit never meant to offend her. “One thing is for sure: Neither PK nor myself had any intention of “dissecting” the deaths of both Lisa R. and Eileen’s family members. We were talking about the mere fact that if people had known Eileen was going through a bereavement, I’m sure there would have been support and understanding. We never had any intention for Lisa R. and Eileen to take offense from anything said. We respect them and feel for them both with those they’ve lost. In fact, the topic of Eileen’s mother passing was such a small conversation during a very long dinner party with a lot of conversation that I hadn’t even remembered it a week later when I saw Eileen and she mentioned it.”

RELATED: ERIKA JAYNE ISN’T HAPPY WITH DORIT KEMSLEY

Dorit has now learned that when one joins a reality TV show, every little word will be picked apart and analyzed. “The beach walk was a lovely idea and fun with Eileen. It was so windy, but the conversation unfortunately got a little awkward. It seemed like she wanted me to apologize for what I honestly was having issues recalling. We discussed so many things at our dinner party. At dinner parties the wine flows, people relax and unwind, conversations happen, and I try to have fun and not feel like I have to always have my guard up. I didn’t realize every comment and opinion was going to be analyzed or shared, and nothing mean or hurtful was being said… As I’ve said, I don’t hold back, but maybe I’ll have to be on my guard more in the future. Most importantly, though, I don’t want any drama with either of these ladies. I think a simple dinner conversation got a bit misconstrued, and I would never diminish or dismiss the magnitude or importance of losing a loved one.”

After being a shady bitch at the lunch at Camille Grammer‘s house, Dorit now praises Erika Jayne on her music career accomplishments. “It was also great to hear about the wonderful things going on with Erika’s music career. I had no idea that her music was so big. I had heard she was a performer, but I genuinely didn’t know that she was such a successful artist producing nine number one hits—that’s really something! Even though I haven’t been 40 very long, as Erika pointed out, I believe these years are for being very poised, confident, and comfortable in your own skin, and I think it’s fantastic that Erika is living her dream and doing it so well.”

Dorit is still in the midst of the learning process of being a reality TV cast member, but she’s loving it so far. “Well it’s been an interesting few weeks. There’s definitely a lot happening and a lot to learn about everyone and their lives and personalities. But each week I feel like I’m learning and growing more. Even with the ups and downs, it’s honestly wonderful getting to know this dynamic and successful group of women. It’s been a rollercoaster so far, but I’m not getting off anytime soon.”

Celebrity Big Brother Recap: Day One

Celebrity Big Brother

Celebrity Big Brother

Here we go, day one of the Celebrity Big Brother antics and the teasers are showing Speidi (Heidi and Spencer Pratt) up to their normal camera-stealing, attention-loving, drama-craving tricks. Oh, wait… Am I meant to be neutral and unbiased? Oops.

So we left yesterday with beige tracksuit-wearing Stacy Francis being sent to the garden, whilst the All-Stars returned to the house to meet up with the remainder of the Newbies. The house is abuzz with the news that Ray J and Stacy have a history (although unknown as yet what that is), and if she doesn’t have enough reasons to justify her tears and bird-giving, Spencer and Heidi enter the garden to tell Stacy to sit on the specific ‘edited out’ chair and other ‘comforting’ pearls of wisdom (must be neutral…must be neutral…think happy thoughts…).

CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!

Heidi then manages to baffle minds by asking James Cosmo who he is (seriously???), because obviously The Hills was far bigger than Game of Thrones (deep breaths…special place). James C is still wondering around looking a bit bewildered. What IS he doing here? Did he pop out for milk and get lost? Will he be asking Momma Nolan for a tin of baked beans and a pint of semi-skimmed?

STOP THE PRESS: We have our first deep moment of the series in the diary room, Stacy explaining about the unhappiness of her history with Whitney Houston, and more importantly, her feelings of betrayal that Ray J did nothing to support her when she was being vilified for wrong argument, wrong time. Sympathy kind of fades when she suddenly bursts into song like something out of Annie after explaining this. Maybe its X-Factor training? Let’s not waste an opportunity, eh?

Fullscreen capture 152017 102951 AM

AND THEN BACK TO NORMAL: Spencer is getting far too deep in his role of producer. I’m hoping he’s drunk. There’s no excuse for this type of talk sober. He decides to tell other people that they can’t talk to Stacy as she’s been edited out, then tells Stacy that she should be grateful for him as he is the only person choosing to speak to her. Say what? Is this guy for real?

Thankfully, Stacy sees the game he’s playing, and we cut to Austin Armacost in the Diary room saying that whilst he was willing to give them a chance, he’s already seen Spencer being a ‘d*ckhead’ and guesses it won’t be long before Heidi does the same. They have only been in the house a few hours, and Austin notes that they are already trying to separate the house.

Cut to Spencer in the house talking about retiring his ‘split personality disorder,’ and Stacy makes the mistake of taking the bait. As soon as she does, Heidi jumps into husband-defending mode and we have a little bit of verbal tussling. Stacy holds her own, despite the earlier tears and her obvious feeling of isolation from the others.

Ray J decides to bring up the sex tape in the Diary Room whilst complaining that people keep asking about the sex tape. Is it just me that sees the irony in this? He wants people to see past his past (‘scuse the pun), he says, whilst talking about the past. Someone needs to have a word.

The producers are gathered again. They have been told to nominate another newbie housemate to be edited out. James C is unanimously nominated as the person least likely to be upset by the vote. Dude just wants his milk. James dresses in the obligatory beige tracksuit (WTH?) and looks for his beans.

COMPLETELY OFF CONVERSATION: I don’t want to imply anything about intellectual expectations of the celebs, but someone behind the scenes has decided there is a need to label the Tumble Dryer – in HUGE letters. You know, just in case they thought it was something else, like a kettle or whatever.

Celebirty Big Brother

Anyway, Speidi openly declare war on Stacy and her ‘attitude’ whilst in the Diary Room (like we didn’t see that coming).

The doors to the store cupboard and bedroom are opened and the standard rush for booze and beds starts. Stacy and Speidi have a little hissy fit again. Stacy is starting to grow on me…until she calls Austin ‘The Gay Boy’ when discussing who’ll share a bed with him. I’m not entirely sure if it was meant negatively or not, but good ol’ James Jordan cut that convo off right where it belonged.

We finish the show with various conversations about how nice, or not, Speidi actually are, and the traumas of going for a shower with cameras. How they didn’t think of this before now I don’t know. Maybe the crew didn’t put a label on it. The night closes on a happy and peaceful night, and there ends day one in the house. Here’s looking forward to the fun and games of day two…

Lisa Vanderpump Defends Dorit Kemsley’s Character; Says She Is “Kind” And “Lovely” And Not As Polarizing As Portrayed

Lisa Vanderpump - WWHL

In her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills blog this week, Lisa Vanderpump shares her thoughts on the “miscommunication” between Lisa Rinna and PK and Dorit Kemsley during the conversation about the deaths of Lisa Rinna‘s father and Eileen Davidson‘s mother last season.

Lisa also defends her friend Dorit and bemoans the fact that she’s in the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills “hot seat” so far this season.

Lisa points out that “wine obviously flowed copiously” at PK and Dorit‘s dinner party. “So one might be forgiven if an accurate memory of what had transpired in conversation might be a little hazy so to speak. When we flash back, it compounds the fact that Dorit was inaccurate of her recollection. The subject of Eileen‘s name and mother, of course, was raised, however there were wires that were crossed.”

Lisa acknowledges that PK and Dorit were wrong about last season’s timeline.

Lisa Rinna was trying to convey that the sad passing of their parents had little to do with the convoluted scenario that had played out between us all last year at the reunion. Eileen‘s mother had unfortunately died a few days prior to the reunion, unbeknownst to us. I see PK and Dorit interpreting the conversation differently. They construed that Eileen’s mother passed previously, prior to the whole situation many months before and that had changed her demeanor through last summer, and if we were friends, she should have conveyed that to me. I see their point, them believing that for Eileen to be immersed in her grief might have been responsible for the negative interactions between us. Not so… their parents passed after the disastrous trip to Dubai and that is why LR was speaking of the reunion.”

About Kyle Richards‘ little jab about Lisa carrying on like she hasn’t had any work done to her face, Lisa blogs, “I am totally transparent: laser treatments minimally, as I can’t afford the downtime, and a little filler with Botox are my best friends. And also, best friends don’t feel the need to point that out.”

Lisa wishes she had been at Camille Grammer‘s luncheon so she could have cleared up the aforementioned misunderstanding about last season’s timeline.

“The tension between Erika and Dorit is palpable,” says Lisa, adding that the after effects of “knickergate” didn’t help matters. “Dorit kindly remarks to Erika that she is still a young woman, but the interaction between them seems as cool as the chilled wine they were drinking. She then tries to soften the conversation with the remark of being in her 40s, but once again is shot down.”

About the focus on Dorit so far this season, Lisa bemoans, “It is all so precarious, and I wasn’t there to witness many of these interactions, so the hot seat has been graciously relinquished this season to my friend Dorit. Dorit is a kind, lovely young woman, but a formidable opponent, make no doubt. I feel secure in the fact that as weeks pass you’ll have a better understanding of who she is rather than the polarizing portrayal so far.”

TELL US: DO YOU FEEL THE ‘HOT SEAT’ IS JUSTIFIED BASED ON DORIT’S INTERACTIONS WITH HER CO-STARS SO FAR?
