Review: ‘Fahrenheit 451’ Has Fire and Fury but Sheds Little Light

Kathryn Dennis On How It Felt To Lose Custody Of Her Kids

Kathryn Dennis On How It Felt To Lose Custody Of Her Kids

The show Southern Charm revolves around the boys club in Charleston. Nevertheless, it is more of a Kathryn Dennis comeback story in my eyes. She has really gone through a lot throughout the years.

Without a doubt, the hardest obstacle for Kathryn was losing custody of the two kids she has with Thomas Ravenel. I will never forget that scene with their daughter crying in the parking lot because she wanted more time with Kathryn.

Kathryn opened up about losing custody in an interview with People.  The mother of two admitted, “It’s absolutely not something I thought I’d ever face.” She continued, “It all happened so fast. Losing my kids, I just remember falling on my knees and breaking down like every single day.”

Kathryn admitted, “when you don’t have your children with you and they’re at such fragile, young ages, it just feels like part of you is not there.” And on top of all that, her rise and fall has played out in a very public manner.

Kathryn realized, “Time is very cherished, and I try and fill it with things that are meaningful and bond with them.” She confessed that she views their quality time in a different way. She explained, “You look at it differently when you realize it can be taken away.”

Kathryn kept it real. She described how she felt in a very vivid manner: “Your heart is walking around outside of you and you can’t see them or talk to them. It’s out of your control but these are two humans who you gave life to. It’s just so unnatural and I can’t describe it in any other way.”

She added, “It’s probably one of the hardest things you can go through in life in general. It’s hard spiritually, mentally, and physically; you can just become drained by the guilt and shame.”

Thankfully things seem to be going better for Kathryn and it seems like she and Thomas have a better handle on co-parenting.

Reality Stars Turn Out For OK! Magazine Summer Party – Real Housewives, Teen Mom Stars, More

Reality Stars Turn Out For OK! Magazine Party –

A lot of reality stars were gathered in NYC last night for the OK! Magazine Summer Party! A slew of ladies from the various Real Housewives franchises, the Summer House cast, Teen Mom stars, and more were spotted at the event together.

Real Housewives of New York City‘s Tinsley Mortimer, Dorinda Medley and Sonja Morgan mugged it up on the red carpet alongside Real Housewives of Dallas stars Stephanie Hollman, Cary Deuber, and Brandi Redmond.

Former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Phaedra Parks posed with Real Housewives of New Jersey‘s Melissa Gorga. Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave seemed to be the only Beverly Hills housewife represented.

In a strange Bravo-MTV twist, Teen Mom 2 star Javi Marroquin made it to the event but it doesn’t look like any of his co-stars were there.

Also included in the new photo gallery is Kandi Burruss. She wasn’t at the OK! Magazine Summer Party because she had a prior engagement and we have those pics below, too!

Aviva Drescher Says Carole Radziwill Is “Extremely Contrived” & Is Only On Real Housewives Of New York Because “She’s Best Friends With Andy Cohen”

Aviva Drescher Says Carole Radziwill Is “Extremely Contrived” & Is Only On Real Housewives Of New York Because “She’s Best Friends With Andy Cohen”

 

It feels like a whole lifetime ago when Aviva Drescher threw her prosthetic leg across the room. Nevertheless, Real Housewives of New York is still going strong with its current cast. One ongoing storyline this season is the rift between Bethenny Frankel and Carole Radziwill.

Aviva is all too familiar when it comes to fighting with Carole. This is not one of those situations where “time heals all wounds.” Aviva still has a lot of animosity toward her former costar and she’s not afraid to let it all out.

Aviva dished on her time as a Real Housewife during an episode of The Reality Rundown podcast. Aviva was asked about Bethenny’s claim that Carole “needs a friend by her at all times.” Before getting to the question, Aviva said, “We were definitely very, very close. I fell head over heels for Carole. Carole…. I think…. does what’s good for Carole.” So maybe “what’s good for Carole” is having a friend by her side at all times.

Then Aviva explained the breakdown of her relationship with Carole. She admitted, “I think Step 1 for me and Carole was when I called the girls white trash.” And by “the girls” she means Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan specifically.

Aviva recalled, “I sort of turned from being a fan favorite to a fan non-favorite.” She continued, “When I started to get a little bit hated for going after Sonja and Ramona, for the whole white trash thing, and all that, Carole in real life started to distance herself from me.”

Aviva claimed, “[Carole]is such a strategic person. It’s unbelievable. Her whole life is like that. It’s incredible. She’s extremely contrived….. but trying so hard to not let people know that she is contrived.”

Then she made a pretty bold (and very interesting) claim : “Let me make it clear why Carole is one hundred percent on the show. She is best friends with Andy [Cohen] for many many years. That’s a political game over there. She’s positioned herself and made herself popular on social media. She’s very well set up over there where she really doesn’t have to do anything.” Aviva added, “She has major job security.”

Aviva discussed getting fired from the show. She admitted, “I was surprised. I think that I had a lot. I think I could have had a lot more fun and done a lot more. ” She even claimed, “I do believe comes down a lot to Carole. I do.” Very interesting.

Then, Aviva brought us back to the story line known as “bookgate.” She revealed, “Bookgate came up because I was talking to Ramona off-camera about how Carole was blowing me off.”

Aviva continued, “When I told her that my publisher told me that Carole had a ghostwriter, Ramona was like ‘Oh my gosh. You have to bring it on air. That’s such a great story line.’ Carole was being such a bitch to me anyway, so I figured ‘Why not bring that on?’ I had no idea that was going to hit such a nerve. Honestly.”

Aviva recalled, “She became vicious. She went after my husband’s business. She honestly looked at it as an assault on her livelihood, which was not my intention. I couldn’t reel her back. I tried to. I tried to apologize to her on camera. I said on air that the book was so good.”

Aviva theorized,  “I think to this day, that is why I’m not on the show.” She explained, “I think she went right to Andy and said ‘If you bring Aviva back, I’m not coming back.’” And instead we were subjected to watching Carole order eggs for 9 minutes and discussing a marathon for way too many episodes. Just imagine what we could have had if Aviva was still in the mix.

Below Deck Mediterranean Season 3 Premiere Recap: NUTS

"Areca" complains about Adam's cooking

Below Deck Mediterranean - Areca and Adam

Last night was the season premiere of Below Deck Mediterranean Season 3. The scene is set among the beautiful Italian coast, but that’s where the classiness ends!

This year Captain Sandy Yawn will be steering a massive new boat and she has a matching massive attitude. The Motor Yacht Talisman Maiton, for all it’s sensational size, kind of resembles a Marriott on the inside; all dark, heavy colors and dreary overdone rooms. Perfect to match Hannah Ferrier‘s sulkiness as she returns, once again, to the life of a chief stew. Hannah is turning 30 and is tired of serving eggs for ungrateful guests while her own go stale. She is at a precipice and must decide to give up her heart to the high seas, or retire and find Mr. Right. Maybe she could combine these things by marrying a pirate?

Adam Glick is also back, and he still needs to shave his neck. DUDE – get a barber. After last season Adam disappeared, hermit-like, into the Pacific Northwest to mourn Malia. This new Adam has cut off his hair and apparently also cut out his heart then served it on a stone arranged with some raw fish and similarly colored fruit to prove his devotion to his craft. This is what passed for his enlightening discovery while living out of a van and off the land in Canada.

Adam says his cheffing has evolved past onions into something next level. Magic mushroom omelet? Also, I hate Adam’s hair and no amount of zen-camping can remove his smug face.

Captain Sandy Yawn

After being taken for a ride last season, and almost needing to use a life preserver on herself, Captain Sandy is not playing around. She makes it known to Adam and Hannah that any hinky (or kinky) business and they’ll be using their suitcases as a rowboat off the Talisman. Captain Sandy will also have her hands full with a new crew of famewhores, who are not just here for her exceptional leadership or rumors of Adam’s snacks on boulder cooked by the sun. Seriously – was it like raw tuna on a rock? Giving guests food poisoning sounds like an excellent way to forfeit your tip!

Anyway, like Malia, I need to move on from Adam. Proving his evolution, Adam intentionally refuses to see the new stews as women, only amorphous people with whom he must share microscopic living quarters. He will imagine raw fish on a rock every time he looks at Kasey Cohen.

We are greeted by Conrad Empson, the new babyfaced bosun, (“Babyface Bosun” sounds like a rapper name, so if this yachting thing doesn’t work out…). Conrad’s balls may have just dropped yesterday, according to his first mate, Joao Franco but he knows what he’s doing because been in yachting since he was 18. Hannah, sizing him up, Mrs. Robinson-style, sighs, “They keep getting younger and younger…” Maybe it’s Conrad she’s buying baby shampoo for?

Joao Franco

On the deck crew, there is Joao from Zim, whose first name is unpronounceable to everyone. Also, everyone thinks he’s an Aussie – even Hannah – even though her parents are from Zimbabwe. Joao says yachting was his only escape from a tumultuous country with no opportunity. Right from the jump Conrad and Joao have problems – like when Conrad is attempting to explain the anchor drop to the other deckhands and Joao talks over him, then gives them the wrong color warning. Instead of shutting that down immediately, Conrad waits, politely and British-like, until Joao is finished, then says, “Please let me do the instructing from now on.” Except Joao now sees he can undermine Conrad and continues to do so.

The other deckhands are Jamie Jason, who hails from somewhere in Africa and describes her race as “beef stew with a bit of carrot.” Jamie has concerns about being left out of the boys club of deckhands and on her previous job was the stewardess – she has elevated from vacuum to shammy. Something about Jamie signals trouble as the season progresses. The requisite green deckhand is Colin Macy-O’Toole who came here right from driving the Long Island Ferry, bought about 2 dozen 1985 aerobics headbands from a guy selling them out of a duffle bag on the dock, then headed straight to the Amalfi coast where this knowledge of Italy consisted of a kee-ocky, a type of pasta he loves, but cannot pronounce. This one is sweet though and he’s also instantly sweet on Brooke Laughton, the first stew from the UK.

The new stews are Brooke, who is polite and professional seeming, eager to be Hannah’s right-hand woman after serving on a previous boat with Hannah’s best friend. Hannah is relieved to be rid of that pest Bugsy so she can lay down at night without knives in her back, but I wouldn’t be too sure just yet! Maybe Brooke is Bugsy in disguise and this explains why her British accent is so unintelligible? Brooke is also dating a chef from another boat.

Kasey Cohen gets seasick

And then there is Kasey. Bless her heart. Kasey is a beauty queen from Long Island who thinks the difficult and competitive world of pageants as made her invincible. This invincibility also comes from living at home with her parents who never let her lift a finger. So Kasey, a literal Long Island Princess,  joins the crew of Talisman as 3rd Stew having never operated a washing machine and never actually ridden on a boat that’s left the dock. She’s immediately stricken down with seasickness so severe she’s puking into a plastic Rubbermaid bin (they don’t have buckets?!) for the entire first charter – or maybe she just had severe anxiety about using the dryer? Kasey also brags about her degree in psychology, so she’s ready to help these people! Kasey is going to be a crazy-ass disaster, also I despise the orange-y hair which is the same color as her orange-y skin.

Adding to Kasey’s invincibility is that the only drink she can make is a Jack and Coke. Um, classy!

Captain Sandy sits the crew down for an epic opening meeting where she promises to test them on the enormous binder she’s compiled of rules and regulations. After realizing that Captain Sandy is on seriousness steroids this season, Hannah and Adam’s first response is to have a glass of wine. That was fortuitous because the first charter is HORRENDOUS. And they will not be having any Jack & Cokes (although you know in their real life that’s what passes for fancy if you add a twist of lime!).

I mean, where – seriously – did they find these people?! (A: Atlanta). Main charter guest Nichelle runs a business management firm which is hilarious because she can’t even manage to corral her friend group into civil behavior aboard a 5-star yacht. It’s immediately apparent that there’s a disconnect because this group of single ladies sees themselves as the epitome of sophistication and taste and the Talisman is not befitting of them.

Hannah Ferrier

Their preference sheet basically reads like an alert – they don’t want red meat, chicken, rice, or pork. What they do want is nuts. Nuts of all kinds. Nuts of the honey roasted variety and also nuts of the man on super luxury yacht type. Within seconds of descending like a pack of wild hyenas, they start demanding non-stop champagne and NUTS. WHERE ARE THE NUTS. They must mix champagne with protein. It’s abundantly obvious why this group is sexually frustrated – especially the loudest and crudest among them, a woman with obnoxiously artificial red hair and the equally obnoxiously artificial spelling of the name Erica as “Areca“.

New Charter Guests - Nichelle & Areca

As Hannah has Adam preparing a classy fruit and cheese plate, the women are bellowing into their champagne glasses about waiting a nautical eon for NUTS. They could, I don’t know, enjoy the stunning views of Naples? The gorgeous sea air? Instead, they’re literally screaming and begging for NUTS. When they finally get their nuts, they’re unimpressed by pistachios and ask about honey nuts? Hannah should’ve dumped a can of grocery store Planters on them and said ‘You bitches are too nuts for any self-respecting nuts.’

Hannah counsels Kasey

While all this is happening Kasey is so ill she’s hovering over a plastic bin, vomiting, then stumbling half-blind to bed, so the negligent service can be partially explained by Hannah being one stew down immediately out of the gate.

Brooke delivers the nuts

After striking out with one kind of nuts, Areca decides she wants to sample the other kind by taking the dinghy out to visit the bigger yachts positioned nearby. She calls it a “hospitality check” but Conrad sneers that it’s “husband hunting.” The poor embarrassed crew is forced to load these screaming harridans into what is essentially a raft and putter over to these massive, even fancier yachts – probably occupied by their owners. Upon seeing Areca waving a champagne bottle, the crew of the other boat radios for the Italian equivalent of the coast guard. The women are forced to return, dejected, where Areca vents her frustrations by rudely telling Colin how to tie a rope off as Conrad rolls his eyes behind her giant red beehive. This woman is trashed and deplorable. Also the irony of these people offering ‘hospitality’…  they need to be hospitalized for cray!

Dinner is the worst though. The absolute worst! Areca has a massive chip on her shoulder after all the nuts in Italy weren’t sweet enough. So she drinks. A lot.  And complains even more. They’re fine with the salad course, but when Adam serves them a saucy fresh pasta topped with fish – in a bowl – mutiny breaks out because THEY DON’T EAT STARCH! Areca compares the food to something her dog would eat and refers to it as “slop”. Nichelle doesn’t eat out of a bowl! And it looked like a “lunch presentation,” not dinner. Nichelle wants something grander to match her self-perceived grandeur. At this point everyone is wishing the Talisman would turn into The Titanic, but even as the boat sunk these woman would be standing on the bow screaming “NUTS”

Below Deck Mediterranean Season 3 Premiere Recap: NUTS

Hannah returns the truly delicious looking pasta dish to Adam and explains that they want him to come above so they can rip him a new one. He arrives as Areca is stumbling to help herself to the liquor cabinet. She demands the stews keep the wine flowing, then slurs to Adam that her idea of high-class presentation is a grilled cheese … with truffles. This is after she barked at Hannah that she doesn’t eat bread. This is as confusing as the pattern on Areca’s ill-considered maxi dress. Does she hope to hypnotize potential husbands before they can escape?!

Adam, if he is smart, slapped two pieces of sliced American cheese on Wonder Bread and sprayed that shit down with PAM. Nichelle rants about their higher expectations and expects Adam to deliver something better than a bowl of noodles – cause remember: they don’t eat starch. Except for that blonde woman on the end who asks if she can have some pasta “like spaghetti”. More pasta after sending the first pasta back for being just pasta. Adam gussies this pasta up by placing it on a plate. Just like they didn’t want bread, just grilled cheese. Also served on a paper plate.

Charter guests complain about Adam's cooking

At 10pm Adam is placing up tuna, and toasted cheese sandwich with truffle, and then, finally, more pasta on plates. It all looks like Applebees entrees, but the guests finally seem impressed. Mostly with their ability to order the crew around like trained monkeys that jump when they say jump. I personally think, as someone mentioned on twitter, these guests were looking for excuses to be outraged to avoid paying a tip.

The next morning Nichelle puts on her businesswoman caftan to call a breakfast meeting with the group to address her concerns about the lack of sophistication. They are “used to luxury vacations” after all! Nichelle decides to talk to Captain Sandy. Below Brooke warns Adam and Hannah that something other than coffee is brewing upstairs. Somewhere on the Talisman a hungover Areca is still bellowing for nuts, and yet another champagne refill.

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Secrets Revealed Recap: Tattooed Teenagers & The Mothers Who Love Them

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Secrets Revealed - Lisa Rinna

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Secrets Revealed - Lisa Rinna

After a rather drama-free season of Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, it’s not surprising that the secrets revealed last night were less than exciting – and had mostly to do with teenagers behaving badly and the mothers who worry about them.

Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave‘s husband Edwin is giving Mauricio a run for his money in the real estate game! Either that or Edwin’s been watching Million Dollar Listing for some advice on how to win a bidding war on multi-million dollar homes, because after stalking the builders of his neighbor’s house, he badgered, harassed, and harangued them into taking $2 million less for the property just to get rid of him. They need security for the security guy!

Teddi is thrilled with the new home – at a discount price. Not so successful was Edwin’s buying a new Lambo with the money he saved. Teddi does not like things that go fast unless they’re one night stands which lead to the altar. Or cardio classes. And horsepower belongs on four-legged friends with mane and tail.

Um, I wouldn’t pay $2.99 to fulfill my husband’s midlife crisis, let alone $299,000. Edwin is a lucky guy!

Over at Casa de Girardi Erika Girardi shows “Mr. T” the cutout of her Kim Kardashian Hollywood character. Tom is confused about why there are cardboard versions of his wife staring him in the face and can’t figure out which is the real fake. Erika suggests he take it to work with him, so he’ll always have the best part of her with him.

Kyle Richards‘s godson fashion designer Matt Sarafa visits Kyle By AleneTooMuchKyle to pedal his collection “Fake,” which is just about the most perfect thing for a Real Housewives. I’m sure you all remember the faux fur feuds! Unlike Dorit Kemsley, Matt could name a faux jacket after each Housewife – except actually, maybe, not Teddi, who doesn’t seem fake so she might get the shaft again. In her stead, Dorit could have two, or Kyle could luck out with Kyle by Kaftans One and Kyle by KaftansToo as her namesakes.

While Kyle is buying ginormous faux furs, Lisa Vanderump is taunting Ken with faux possibilities of seeing her ginormous bush! For their 35th anniversary, Lisa requests sexy lingerie but he can only look, not touch. Both Ken and Giggy bark in response to this proposition, and he offers her tea instead. I mean Ken might break another hip!

Throwback Kisa photos are beyond amazing. Also amazing: Lisa’s pink pool cue and balls. Only LVP.

In behind the scenes reunion footage, Dorit asks for a glass of wine before Camille Grammer takes the stage – wearing the ballgag as a bracelet. Andy should’ve just handed Dorit the entire bottle. Actually, he should’ve dumped the wine IN a water bottle to see if Dorit was desperate enough to drink it from the wrong receptacle. Although Dorit isn’t exactly receptive to jokes.

We got some lovely footage of Camille swanning around NYC looking like a UES trophy wife while shopping for sex toys and giant dildos. Camille was perniciously plotting revenge to find something off-putting to match Dorit’s “off-putting” behavior. By far the most off-putting thing in the store, though, was the employee’s hair and makeup. Eventually, Camille just decides to take one of LVP’s pool balls and have it made into a pretty pink ballgag perfect for keeping Dorit’s mouth shut with a nod to how she’s been talking smack about her patroness Lady Vanderpump. Just kidding!

Boy George & Dorit

At Dorit’s house, she’s wearing a homemade “Common Sense” tank while she tells Boy George about all the ways Teddi is too sensible for her – like when Teddi asked Dorit to come over early for the spa party so they could discuss Dorit being late to the drinks. Oh, the irony! Dorit and George decide that Teddi’s career is essentially running a fitness Ponzi scheme and she’s “invented a way to get money out of people.” $299,000 worth of money, honey. And how much are those Beverly Beach swimsuits dragging up the shore?

Dorit Kemsley

Hilariously though when Dorit gets to the portion of the story where she admits to being bitchy over the wine glass, George calls her a “glorious snob”. There’s nothing glorious about Dorit, not even her snobbery, but George is such a delight!

We find out it is Ken who wants Giggy cloned, not LVP who would rather save more dogs with that money. To Ken, however, no money is too much for the Giggster’s everlasting life – especially since he’s recently been diagnosed with a heart condition. We can’t talk about the Real Dogs of BH without a eulogy to LVP’s losses. Months later, at the reunion, Lisa is still an emotional wreck over the loss of Pikachu and Pink Dog. RIP Furry Friends. Also – Pandora, please reproduce lest LVP fill all of Villa Rosa with doggies until the only teacup one can find is a teacup chihuahua!.

In a sweet moment (her only!), Lisa Rinna suggests LVP clone Giggy as a gift for Ken, but LVP snarks he’d prefer like a copy of Rinnavation with its many sex tips instead. It will go perfectly with the phantom 35th anniversary lingerie!

No one would clone Kyle’s attention-seeking bitches, though. Especially Storm, who is a complete out of control nightmare with no discipline.  Like mother, like dogsters! Mauricio, the devoted father, tries to escape Kyle Storm by taking Alexia to look at colleges – without Kyle. Also, he’s wearing a t-shirt that reads “Rule No 1: No Assholes” Is that a warning to Housewives everywhere?

And to celebrate The Agency opening a Mexico division Kyle will be getting dual-Mexican citizenship and so will all the girls. They’re also getting a beachfront mansion! Maybe Kyle can start casting Real Housewives of Punta Mita!

Lisa Rinna shows her best side

Lipsa’s daughters got microscopic tattoos behind their ears and Amelia chose Saturn. Lipsa is freaking out – because the world doesn’t revolve around her and her opinions? She decides they took this rash action because all teenagers are dumb until they’re 25. What about all the ladies on these shows who are 30, 40, 50+… and still acting dumb?! Maybe they just have teenaged brains?

Erika

Lipsa’s parenting dilemmas allow Erika the opportunity to finally open up about raising her son (without turning into a snarling wolverine). She puts it in perspective for Lipsa that while she’s panicking about tattoos, Erika had a kid at Delilah’s age. Erika was 20 when her nameless son was born (and apparently a redhead?!). Erika claims they have managed to “remain close” and one reason she prefers being a ‘boy mom’ is because she’s a tomboy (but not a girls-girl!). Well, tattoos are less permanent than parenthood, at least!

Maybe Dorit should’ve gotten a Saturn tattoo instead? She pretends to parent for the day by driving her kids to the park and buying them a taco. Now that Jagger can speak, he argues constantly with mommy dearest. Apparently, Jagger has learned from the best that the way to communicate is to throw fits and make unreasonable demands. Meanwhile, Phoenix is putting on makeup and wearing cut-out swimsuits at the tender age of 1. Doit complains that the one hour per week she spends unsupervised with her kids is SO much work. Dorit’s kids are SO adorable though.

Teddi and LVP bond over their irreverent sense of humor, and love of horses. LVP wants to take Teddi under her wing and nurture her about the complex and dangerous ways of the BH – which means enlightening naive little Teddi Bear about what marriage of 35 years entails with the cautionary tale of Ken and The Kidney Stones!  (Sounds like a rock band at a retirement home) Frighteningly the stones pop out the “end of the winky” and LVP has to catch them – the trade-off being that she’s off the hook for sexy times.

On their way to the horse barn, Teddi’s new Tesla SUV is more complicated than kidney stone catching though. But finally, we find some fashions Teddi knows about – equestrian clothing! Her specialty is hairnets. Which Dorit will probably start wearing, layering 12 on top of each other, all in different metallics and then attached with 64 barrettes and at least 200 bobby pins until she makes airport metal detectors explode with frustration.

LVP, however, is not the hairnet wearing kind. Unless it can be fashioned into a facial mask.

Camille's house in Malibu

Camille invites Erika and Lipsa over for lunch at her newest Malibu beach acquisition. A quaint little cottage right on the water. Literally right on the water – which is her backyard. Amazing! Also, Camille is so classy. Erika’s casual beach look includes 6″ spike heels.

Lisa Rinna - Facelift

Over salads, the ladies discuss all their age-related ailments. Lipsa confesses that like a Lifetime movie, she’s sold her soul to the devil to look young, but it’s still not enough – she needs a facelift dammit! Because she has to keep up with the Vanderpumps! Lipsa is convinced LVP secretly had one, and she doesn’t want to be the only one left with a saggy waddle of a neck and walking around with duct tape holding her wrinkles back.

At Teddi’s beach house the women played Jenga as a way to strategize dealing with the other Housewives; one wrong move it all falls down and the hits keep coming. It’s a good way to practice your manipulation and cunning, and also your gumption, but it proves just as stressful and wrinkle-provoking so now they all need either facelifts or industrial strength ballgags face-tape! Unsurprisingly Dorit topples the whole tower because real life imitates TV life. Also, Teddi needs tape to keep her romper out of her couch – hooooly was that short and uncomfortable looking!

Kyle Richards talks about her family problems - AGAIN

After Jenga it’s a communal dinner on the beach where Erika pretends she’s not from the south and has never heard of a potluck, and then has to go fleeing from her roots into the night where she hides in the Double-Tree until her demons subside into a streak of self-tanning gel, body glitter, and latex dust. I personally thought dinner looked delightful and led to an equally delightful conversation about their best and worst qualities. I much prefer that to fancy boring restaurants and vapid arguments. Unsurprisingly Deluionit is stumped by naming her worst quality so the ladies all have to help her out with that. LVP suggests “loquacious,” and not to be outdone in that category Kyle starts rambling about herself and her childhood and over-explaining all the things that make Kyle, Kyle. It’s all about her childhood, and her mom, and her sisters and how it affects her life and her parenting. SIGH … GET THERAPY!

Teddi Arroyave Beach House

And since secret teenage tattoos seem to be the theme of this secrets revealed episode, Teddi confesses that she got one in the 8th grade! That information truly shocks every woman at the table – even bad bitch Erika – into getting along. Even John Mellencamp, whom Teddi calls to get confirmation that he was mad, admits he’s still mad all these years later.

On the beach, away from the fancy purses and designer cars and materialism, eating potluck food prepared by Dorit’s mom and Erika’s assistant, the women break down barriers and talk. They open up about their childhoods, and their concerns as mothers and they are raw with each other – even LVP and Erika. It was nice, and it showed that beneath the layers of fake tan, and glam squad and botox these women have hearts and souls and the capability of friendship. Imagine – they’re real.

Ramona Singer Is Working On A Mother-Daughter Jewelry Line

Ramona Singer Is Working On A Mother-DaughterJewelry Line

When Ramona Singer first appeared on Real Housewives of New York, she was running True Faith Jewelry- which it feels like she hasn’t mentioned in years. Or maybe she has and I’m just caught up in all of the other Housewife drama.

Nevertheless, Ramona has a new jewelry project in the works and it’s all about the mother-daughter relationship. Are you even a Real Housewife if you don’t have several product lines?

According to an article from Bravo’s The Daily Dish, Ramona posted a video on Instagram Story before her Watch What Happens Live appearance on May 9.

In the video, Ramona showed off her necklace. She said, “I’m about to go on Watch What Happens Live in an hour or so, but all of you are getting a sneak peek. I designed this piece for Safe Horizon with Encircle, and 100 percent of the proceeds go to Safe Horizon. And I have it in this size, and a mini size, so it will be like a mother-daughter [look].”

This is a cute idea, but it would have been way more applicable to Ramona’s life a few years ago. Now, her daughter Avery Singer is all grown up and she doesn’t need a “mini size” of Ramona’s jewelry.
