Introductions have been made, awkward moments had, and most importantly, rooms, assigned. Now that we're truly in the thick of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Ex-Wives Club,...Noella Bergener might be keeping her orange after all. Despite only hearing rumors (from Kelly Dodd no less) about casting, it seems that Noella is positioning herself for a redemption season. It happens a lot in Housewives – a rookie comes in and we all hate them. But by season 2, they have somehow won us over. Which may or may not be the case with Noella, but she is out here doing the work to expose her castmates off screen. In other words, she’s drumming up publicity.
Noella recently told Page Six of her first season, “It’s a weird world to be in. Like, my agony – people were almost jealous of it.” She points to the multiple times that her castmates accused her of being self centered on her own struggles without listening to theirs. Which were….ummm….what struggles did any of the other RHOC women face this season? Outside of Dr. Jen Armstrong’s marital issues? What am I missing?
On top of making history as the first Black and openly bisexual woman on RHOC, Noella faced scrutiny for her personal tragedies. Her husband left her, her child was diagnosed with a disability and her father died. All within the months before and during filming. She recalled, “The crazy thing was, a lot of times some of these conversations were shut down, which is infuriating. Like, I’m grieving my active divorce and being shut down by women.”
Noella continued, “These other women are suddenly judging me because, like, three months ago my husband just left and I have a feeling about that that day. How dare I not be done with that already and just stop with my annoying feelings and emotions!”
According to Noella, she came into this season with high hopes, especially when it came to Heather Dubrow. She noted, “I was probably the number one [fan] looking forward to Heather Dubrow. I was so pumped. I was so excited I DMed her like, ‘OMG I’m dead this is going to be so much fun!’”
Yeah, not so much. The two came to some serious blows when Noella accused Heather of pushing a crew member. All of her castmates sided against her. But she found some validation in an unlikely place – Kelly and Tamra Judge. The two former RHOC housewives recently took to the Jeff Lewis Live podcast and backed up Noella’s story. Straight from the producer Heather allegedly pushed!
Kelly called in to share, “You know [former producer] Thomas Kelly called all of us. And he said, to every single one of us…to Shannon [Beador], me..I don’t know what he said to you, Tamra. But I think he said the same thing. He said that Heather Dubrow did push him. That Terry [Dubrow] did push him against the wall. He said that Heather Dubrow is diabolical and that everyone was scared of her.”
Kelly and Tamra might be the biggest pot-stirrers of all time but this is definitely some tea. Kelly went on to explain what she believes to be an effort to protect Heather and Terry. She stated, “We all collectively think that [the production company for RHOC] Evolution was the one that was protecting the Dubrows.” I know Kelly and Tamra love to stir the pot, but I am living for this conspiracy theory.
So is this setting Noella up for a season of vindication? Probably not but this will be a continued battle if both Noella and Heather come back. In the meantime, Noella revealed that her divorce has been finalized. She’s still waiting on custody and spousal support decisions but she’s free to look for love again. Which she’s doing on Seeking.com, which was previously known as SeekingArrangement. The same site where she met her ex. Noella said she’s going to give the site another try because she believes in their dedication to “dating up.”

Wanna know what's happened to Wizards of Waverly Place's Alex Russo? You may not need to look any further than Only Murders in the Building character, Mabel. "I feel like...Dorit Kemsley’s former tagline was, “When you’ve traveled the world, you can speak in any accent you want.” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has long been scrutinized for her unique accent. Now Kelly Dodd is going to giving her hot take on the matter.
As reported by Reality Blurb, the fired Real Housewives of Orange County star weighed in on an episode of The Rick & Kelly Show. The YouTube show released a clip on Instagram where of Kelly and husband Rick Leventhal mock Dorit’s accent. The two were sporting matching cowboy hats and recapping the latest episode of RHOBH when Dorit came up.
Rick started by asking, “Where are you from, Dorit?” Kelly responded with a laugh, “She’s from Connecticut.” Rick clarified, “She’s from Woodbridge, Connecticut. She’s born and raised in Woodbridge.” Kelly went on to imitate Dorit. She answering in her Dorit accent and said, “Yeah, and this is how we talk collectively.”
Rick explained his disbelief stating, “I spent 25 years in New York City. I know a lot of people who live and work in Connecticut. They don’t talk like that.”Kelly continued to speak in Dorit and argued, “Her husband is British.”
Despite the accusation that her accent is fake, Rick mused that maybe Dorit’s accent is due to her parents being from Israel. He suggested maybe she is mimicking their accent. Kelly disagreed and said, “No, because they have her back … doing her swimwear line, and she talked just like you and I. I swear.” She’s likely referring to the video that surfaced of Dorit at one of her early swimwear shows in 2013. The clip from Videofashion features an interview of Dorit, minus any accent.
For her part, Dorit has long defended her distinctive way of speaking. She’s previously said that she’s influenced by husband PK Kemsley’s British twang, along with her parents’ accent. Dorit has faced so much criticism about her accent, she even related to Hilaria Baldwin when she was busted last year for allegedly faking an accent and Spanish heritage. Hilaria, who hails from Boston, was actually born “Hilary.”
After an old clip of Hilaria surfaced of her with an accent and fumbling for the word “cucumber,” the internet ate her alive. Dorit came to her defense. Said Dorit, “I feel bad for what she’s going through in the press at the moment. I don’t think she deserves it. I’ve had so much scrutiny over the way I speak, I’ve learned to ignore all the noise but at first it was really hurtful.”

Summer is about to get even hotter. That's because Sarah Hyland is set to host Peacock's new Love Island USA, E! News can exclusively announce. Based on the hugely popular U.K....Back in April of this year, former Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes filed suit against Bravo. She alleged that Bravo, along with the RHOA production company, Andy Cohen and parent company NBCUniversal fostered a hostile and racist work environment. Now it seems like both sides are trying to work out a settlement.
As reported by Page Six, an Atlanta judge granted both parties a 45 day-extension. The grant came after the defendants requested more time to “negotiate” the dispute. Court documents from June 24th reveal that the defendants filed a motion arguing that ongoing disputes are “already subject to arbitration in New York.” They cited contract agreements between them and NeNe as the reason.
Legal experts explain that arbitration is when two parties use an independent, impartial third party to settle. The motion noted that NeNe “disagrees” with the proposed arbitration. But that both parties are “in the process of negotiating this issue in an attempt to avoid the time and expense of a motion to compel arbitration” through their attorneys. Therefore, the judge signed the extension saying that it is “appropriate to complete these discussions.” The deadline on the extension is August 19th.
NeNe’s lawsuit was a Bravo bombshell. She claimed that she suffered years of racist behavior from former castmate Kim Zolciak, who is white. NeNe also alleged that when she complained to Bravo higher-ups, she was ignored. And eventually blackballed from work outside of Bravo. NeNe told TMZ in May, “I was constantly being retaliated against, being blacklisted, not able to work, being silenced, and so, you know, it was difficult to do.”
In the suit NeNe outlined instances where Kim was allegedly racist on camera. Kim called NeNe’s home a “roach nest,” said that castmate Kandi Burruss’ neighborhood was “ghetto,” and purportedly used a racial slur. Instead of being fired, NeNe argues that Kim was rewarded with her own spin-off. Kim recently responded to NeNe’s allegations. She stated, “[NeNe] knows what she’s saying is not true in regards to me. That’s ridiculous, and she knows it.” She then added, “I’ll deal with her when she’s done with them. You can’t say things that aren’t true and try to defame somebody.”
After 12 seasons on RHOA, NeNe announced her departure in September of 2021. She stated in part, “It wasn’t an easy decision for me. It was hard.”

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp has been open about the fact that she was fired from the show after Season 10. Teddi had a rep for being boring on RHOBH, as co-star Sutton Stracke once noted.
Well, folks, Sutton wasn’t wrong. Teddi popped out of her father, musician John Mellencamp’s shadow, and tried to capture our interest for three seasons. Other than being Kyle Richards’ bestie and playing a pivotal role in “puppy gate,” Teddi didn’t have much going on.
Teddi texted producers, “I’ve trended on Twitter every single week from hate, and you aren’t giving me anything else but the negative. I need you to show my life in some other capacity.” The ax fell a weeks later, much to Teddi’s surprise.
Teddi has even blamed her lack of glam for her firing. The accountability coach admitted that she no longer misses being on RHOBH. Sure. Now she is co-hosting a podcast with former Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Judge, called Two T’s In a Pod.
Heavy. reported that Teddi discussed her father’s feelings about her being part of RHOBH on Melissa Gorga’s podcast, Melissa Gorga on Display. Teddi said, “The only thing that he really got annoyed with me is when I cried. Because in our family, we’re not–he does not do well with crying.”
She continued, “Unless something really terrible happens like there’s a death, like there’s not like crying, like you’re not having an argument and then you cry. And he could not understand my first season, like I think Erika [Jayne] said like something to me, and my eyes — I didn’t know how to handle it and he was like, ‘That’s not who you are, I’ve never known you to cry like that. What is happening?’” Teddi remarked. “I’m like, ‘I think it was the pressures of the camera. It was something added to it.’”
Not the sympathetic fatherly reaction I was expecting. Teddi added that her father would have preferred her to “take those girls down” instead of crying.
In February of 2018, Teddi discussed her father’s fondness for RHOBH during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live. “He actually called me today and goes, ‘I don’t know what my life is coming to because I had to call my assistant today to go what time is the Housewives on,’” Teddi stated. Apparently, John doesn’t enjoy Teddi squabbling with co-star Dorit Kemsley. Teddi’s famous father also wondered why Teddi wanted to sign up for a reality show.
“I think his reaction was kind of similar to anybody who says why would you do the show?” Teddi commented. “And I just said, ‘You know, I just have this feeling. I want to do it. I think there’s a lot of fun to be had. I think there’s a lot to learn and if I’m true to who I am then I can’t really have anything to lose,’” she said.
Teddi joined the Season 3 cast of Celebrity Big Brother, and even though her father didn’t understand what she was doing, he was behind her. Teddi was the first person evicted from the CBB house. Ouch!
According to heavy., Teddi talked about her father’s support on Entertainment Tonight Canada. “He was like ‘Teddi, we are so proud of you. Like you played the game with integrity and like that is the kind of daughter that I’m like so proud to have because that shows how I raised you and we didn’t always get to see the full you on Housewives and you showed who you are and I love you,’” Teddi shared. “And so that made me feel so good because that’s how I wanted to come out of this game,” she added.

Jodie Foster is putting on her True Detective hat. The Oscar winning actress is set to star in season four of the HBO anthology crime series, alongside actress Kali Reis. Titled...Former The Bachelorette contestant Cam Ayala underwent a leg amputation late last week, his most recent social media post revealed.
“Gotta lotta BROMENTUM with @b.rapp #amputee #CAMputee #FAITHoverFEAR,” read the Instagram caption which accompanied the photograph of Cam in a hospital bed at Texas Medical Center, with much of his right leg appearing to have been removed.
Cam has long suffered from a disease known as lymphedema, which was the reason for the procedure, as reported by Page Six. The condition is the result of lymph vessels failing to sufficiently drain the lymph nodes, resulting in a back-up of fluid that causes swelling in the affected region of the body, most commonly the arms or legs.
A Texas native, Cam first appeared on Season 15 of The Bachelorette, which aired in 2019 and featured Hannah Brown (Miss Alabama USA 2018) as the show’s lead for whom all the male contestants competed.
In a recent interview Cam, who also appeared on Season 6 of Bachelor in Paradise, reflected on the way his diagnosis seemingly affected his ultimate fate as a contestant on The Bachelorette.
“Long story short, it started very well. I got the first rose before the first impression rose, and that had never happened before [on the show],” Cam recalled.
“Honestly when I was out there and getting that first rose, I felt affirmed very quickly,” he continued. “And that honestly was the curse. Because there was a very large target placed on my back [among] the men in the house. And about three weeks into the journey there, I decided to open up to [Hannah] about my chronic disease, called lymphedema . . .
“As I opened up to her, some of the other guys in the mansion felt [it] necessary to approach her after that conversation and basically accuse me of fabricating this medical sob story, so I could get what they referred to as a ‘pity rose.’
“And unfortunately [Hannah] believed the guys’ narrative, and I was sent home that night,” he concluded. I’m thinking Hannah’s feeling pretty terrible about that decision right about now. She most definitely owes Cam a heartfelt apology.
In another of Cam’s recent Instagram posts, shared four days ago, the self-described “dance floor king” appears in a video in which he apparently gets ready for and goes through a “final” day of exercise prior to the amputation.
“LAST time putting ON and taking OFF a FULL [leg emoji] compression sleeve . . . 23 years of Love/Hate,” and “My FINAL workout with my God-give[n] legs [more leg emojis]. #SweatCheck,” reads text overlaid on the footage.
Despite what he’s going through, Cam seems to be retaining his cheerful sense of humor and making the best of things. I hope all of Bachelor Nation will come together to wish him a speedy and healthy rehabilitation and recovery.

I’m sure Bravo fans can relate to the massive emotions I’m feeling after the long-awaited premiere of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Season 2. The “Ex-Wives Club” is everything we could have wanted and more. I’m not ashamed to say I teared up when Phaedra Parks showed up on the screen with the grown-up versions of the Prince and Mr. President. Jill Zarin recreating her infamous vacation crashing “Hiiii” at Dorinda Medley’s Bluestone Manor felt like a fever dream. And the terrible two of Vicki Gunavlson and Tamra Judge have returned to whoop it up on the East Coast.
There are so many things to say about RHUGT Season 2. Vicki is fresh off her breakup with Steve Lodge and is taking it out on everyone, especially Dorinda. Dorinda is, as expected, the most chaotic yet high-class hostess of all time. She made it real nice and isn’t letting anyone, especially Vicki’s bad attitude, ruin it. Vicki learned really quick what happens when you poke Dorinda — she always claps back and it’s usually twice as savage.
RHUGT also brought us the return of Brandi Glanville and her own specific brand of mess. To no one’s surprise, Brandi has not changed a bit. Literally, there’s somehow been no growth since she said goodbye to us on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Taylor Armstrong, on the other hand, got to make a comeback after a decade off of reality TV. A lot has changed, but Miss Taylor is having a moment all the same. Eva Marcille is also showing off a lighter (and perpetually stoned) side that I’m loving 100x more than her stint on Real Housewives of Atlanta. Truly, it’s everything and more.
The fans are also here for the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Ex-Wives Club to become a regular series all on its own. Tamra, who is never one to turn down a well-paying gig, was quick to jump on the buzz.
In a screenshot captured by Christian Grey Snow on Instagram, Tamra took to Twitter to beg for a returning RHUGT contract. “I think @peacockTV should bring us together once a year and take us on a different vacation,” Tammy Sue wrote. She’s clearly not banking on a Real Housewives of Orange County return for one reason or another. Based on the new RHUGT season though, these Real Housewives alumni might not even need to go back to their shows. Everyone say thank you, Bravo/Peacock/NBC for feeding our souls yet again.

Erika Jayne is single and ready to mingle. Despite drowning in a mountain of lawsuits, Erika has set her sights on dating. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is not quite divorced from her alleged embezzling husband Tom Girardi just yet. But that doesn’t mean she can’t have some fun while he’s biding his time in a senior care facility until his potential trial(s).
She recently told E!’s Daily Pop of being single while famous, “It’s hard because I don’t think people really know what to expect.” Erika added, “I can’t get on an app. What if [Jeffrey] Dahmer shows up?” I’m just going to take a moment to point out that the fear of who will show up isn’t a famous person problem. It’s a problem for every woman on a dating app. But I wouldn’t expect Erika to know that given how far removed from regular folk she is.
To make matters worse for her (sigh), Erika described herself as “socially awkward” with men. She explained, “They say they want a woman that’s forward but they really don’t.” Cut to a clip of her being admonished by Tom for speaking. So she’s not really wrong about that. When she was presented with the idea that maybe men are scared of her, she agreed. Said Erika, “They are! They actually told me, ‘I’m afraid of you,’ and I was like, ‘Why? I’m modern. I thought I was doing what women are supposed to do, which is speak your mind and say what you like and know.”
Regardless of whether or not Erika thinks being modern is to blame for her lack of dating life, there’s no doubt that her controversial life could be a factor. After 21 years of marriage, Erika filed for divorce in November of 2020. Approximately a month later, Tom was accused of embezzling money from his clients’ settlement funds. Erika has denied having any knowledge of Tom’s misdeeds, but is being sued nonetheless.
Given the ongoing legal issues and Tom’s bankruptcy, Erika admits that finalizing the divorce is not a top priority. She can’t even move ahead if she wanted to because of all the legal tanglings. But she’s committed to staying present in the moment. Erika noted, “Last year I was waking up with this hopeless feeling. There’s a lot of sadness still here, but there is happiness in the form of having some fun with some friends, having some sex, and just trying to stay in the moment and not in the past.”
As for what she’s finding enjoyable, she is relishing her fresh start. Erika remarked, “What I like the most is that I’ve have the chance to completely start over and be free from over a 20-year marriage and kind of wipe the slate clean in a way.” She concluded, “It’s my life to rebuild. In that way it’s a lot of opportunity but also it’s scary at the same time…I don’t really know what I’m doing. I’m just out here trying to make it happen.”

One would think when you have nothing to do but talk, you would discuss everything. I am talking about hopes, dreams, fears and everything under the sun. I’m starting to think in order to be on this show, you aren’t allowed to have deep conversations. It seems almost every couple has no idea of what their partner truly wants from the relationship or life.
Emily ruins Kobe‘s happy proposal. Thaís lets a huge secret she is hiding from Patrick slip. Ariela’s ex is back and so is Biniyam‘s jealousy. Shaeeda questions her future with Bilal. Yvette and Mohamed clash about having kids. Jibri‘s parents bluntly assess his relationship with Miona. Let’s get straight to the recap.
Kobe looks for a new wedding ring with Emily’s sister and father. The only issue is he is the only one that doesn’t know that she already bought a ring without his knowledge. It’s weird that they are supporting this nonsense knowing she already has a ring. Kobe is on a budget and doesn’t have a lot of money to spare. Sigh! Is there no one in the family who is willing to call out Emily on her bullshit? This is crazy.
Kobe takes Emily out for a romantic dinner. He surprises her with the ring in her champagne. I hope she feels terrible after secretly buying a ring. They don’t have a lot of money, so why she would waste more is unknown to me. When they return home, Emily makes the decision to coldly reveal her secret to Kobe in front of everyone. Insert side eye emoji. She knows that he is a proud man and to do that would only embarrass him. He is so insulted he decides to go to bed early. I wonder if Kobe would have run screaming away from her by now, if they didn’t have a child.
Jibri and Miona join his family for dinner after he shared his parents’ concerns with her earlier that day. His mom can’t stand the elephant in the room and just addresses everything. I guess Jibri felt comfortable to air out all of his issues as well. I actually feel sorry for Miona. She has to feel blindsided listening to a group of people tell her how to deal with her relationship. Jibri should have been honest about his feelings, before that meeting.
Shaeeda is still upset after Bilal presented her with a prenup during their romantic date. Regardless of his reasoning for wanting the agreement, a date night probably wasn’t the best time to bring it up. Needing some advice, he speaks with his sister on the matter. Bilal is scared to put his full trust in another woman due to his past relationships. Honestly, if every woman has left him, he may need to do some self-reflection. His sister understands his hesitation, but also can see how his fiancé could view the situation. Meanwhile, Shaeeda’s friends encourage her to stand up for herself and include her own terms for the marriage.
Omg… Bilal would drive me insane with all of his constant nagging about the smallest things. Shaeeda couldn’t even pack a bag for their trip without his input on her folding skills. When she reveals that she wants to add in some of her own terms to the prenuptial agreement, his whole attitude changes. He then questions why she is more concerned with an agreement than whether they will actually get married. Well, maybe he should have thought of that himself before getting an agreement drawn up. Did he expect her to just sign a sheet of paper without questioning it? Shaeeda is beginning to question whether she and Bilal should even get married.
Much to Biniyam’s dismay, Ariela’s ex-husband, Leandro has arrived to visit. Things get awkward very quickly when Leandro tries to give him relationship advice at lunch. Who the hell would want their significant other’s ex to infringe on the present? I’m willing to bet if Biniyam stayed in contact with his ex-wife, she would go crazy.
For Ariela to be so jealous, she sure seems to get a kick out of seeing Biniyam sweat. During a family dinner, she asks her ex-husband to come wedding dress shopping with her. Immediately, Biniyam voices that he doesn’t like that idea. She and her family are dismissive of his feelings and even joke that her ex will pick out her bra as well. SMH… Now, if they situation was reversed they would be telling her that he is disrespectful and something isn’t right. It may be time for him to put his foot down about Leandro.
In an attempt to smooth things over between them, Patrick takes Thais to Vegas. It has been a dream of hers to visit, so she is excited to see all of the new sights. But he is looking forward to introducing his fiancée to his younger brother who currently lives there. Upon meeting the brother, Thais shocks everyone by revealing her father doesn’t know she plans to get married. Talk about red flags. This one is waving furiously in the wind.
On the drive home, Patrick confronts Thais about why she hasn’t told her father they plan to get married. He even begins to worry that she may not be with him for the right reasons, if she could hide something so important. Thais claims she didn’t inform her father because she felt like he would have approved of her coming to the U.S. When Patrick explains why it is important his father knows, she dismisses his feelings. Later, she has a conversation with her father where she continues to lie. Afterward, she tries to convince Patrick to elope at a chapel and then tell her father. Wow, is she that afraid of what her father is going to say? She is already far away, there is no point of hiding the man she intends to marry anymore.
As if they don’t have enough issues, Yvette wants to add a child to the equation. Is she forgetting they can’t even come to a compromise about their relationship? How would they be able to make joint decisions as parents? Mohamed makes it very clear he doesn’t plan to have a child that wouldn’t share his same religion and beliefs. For some reason, she is shocked that he is taking this stance. I don’t know whether to laugh or to scream. This woman is completely delusional.
TELL US: SHOULD YVETTE AND MOHAMED HAVE A CHILD? WHY DO YOU THINK THAIS IS HIDING HER PENDING NUPTIALS FROM HER FATHER? WAS EMILY WRONG TO REVEAL SHE BOUGHT HERSELF A RING IN FRONT OF HER FAMILY? SHOULD JIBRI AND MIONA POSTPONE THEIR WEDDING?

All is not well in Hawkins, Ind.--and it's about to get a whole lot worse. Volume two of Stranger Things season four is set to premiere on July 1, and we have a feeling that fans...Given what was going on in Porsha Williams’ personal life after season 13 of Real Housewives of Atlanta, I don’t think anyone was surprised when she announced her exit from the show. Porsha, who joined RHOA for season 5, had a good long run. But when her relationship with the still married Simon Guobadia came to light, fans weren’t pleased. At the time we were introduced to Simon, he was still very much married to “friend of” Falynn Guobadia. And while Posha defended the timeline of her relationship with Simon, she was dubbed a home wrecker.
After dropping a few hints, Porsha announced she was leaving the show in September of 2021 with an emotional post on her Instagram. She wrote, “This was a difficult decision to not only make, but also come to terms with. It’s one I have put a lot of thought into and because of that, I know it’s the right one.” I’m sure her exit difficult decision was made easier by getting her own spinoff, Porsha’s Family Matters. The show centered around Porsha and Simon’s family coming together as their relationship progressed and they planned their wedding. And included plenty of family drama.
While the relationship, coupled with the show, put a bad tastes in the mouths of many fans, Kandi Burruss isn’t opposed to Porsha coming back to RHOA. She recently told E! News, “There’s always gonna be room for Porsha.” Kandi added, “I honestly think she does think about it sometimes. She definitely said it to me that it does cross her mind. So I mean, I don’t know. She can come back at any moment.”
The two former castmates, once at odds over a huge scandal on the show, still keep in touch. Kandi revealed that the two recently hung out. She shared, “We were just not too long ago at [co-star] Shamea [Morton]’s house. We were there for her birthday and housewarming.”
There’s certainly good reason for Porsha to want to come back to RHOA. While she might also snag a wedding special with Simon, Porsha’s Family Matters didn’t really change the fans’ opinion on Porsha. If anything, it made it worse. She likely left RHOA because she knew the cast would drag her for her messy relationship. And having her own spinoff would be a better way to control the narrative. But all it did was confirm that Porsha’s status as a fan favorite was waning.
Despite all this, I’m sure Porsha still has plenty of fans that would love to see her return to RHOA. Now the real question is, does RHOA need her at this point?

Meredith Vieira, alternative comedy icon? The legendary journalist and talk show host has been dubbed a "comedic genius" by John Early and Kate Berlant, whose sketch special Would...The feud continues. After Dorit Kemsley told the world that Lisa Vanderpump didn’t text her or PK Kemsley after their terrifying home invasion, she started a war. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star made the comments on a Watch What Happens Live appearance. When asked if she heard from LVP, Dorit replied, “No, not a word.” Lisa denied the claim and went to great lengths to show that she did reach out.
As reported by Page Six, Dorit returned to WWHL to throw another bomb. Dorit said of Lisa’s claim that she did text PK after the robbery, “Listen, I’ve heard a lot of things. I heard that she reached out to me, thought she was blocked, so you never really know what to believe.” She continued, “I know this: If we had received the message, we would have responded. I don’t want to drag this LVP thing on, but three months, four months after the incident, we saw her. We were at a mutual friend’s 70th birthday party.”
Dorit went on to say that Lisa “never came up” to her or PK. She mused, “If you had sent a text message and you really cared, approach one of us and say, ‘How you doing? I sent you a text, I didn’t hear back.’ Nothing.” Dorit also accused Lisa of making a “very vicious comment” about how she “didn’t recognize” Dorit at the party. Basically shading her by suggesting she had plastic surgery. The tweet has since been deleted. Dorit finished, “I just find it a little hard to believe that she did indeed reach out when she said she did.”
Dorit’s scary home invasion took place in October of 2021. She was held at gunpoint by robbers while PK was in London. Dorit revealed that she begged for her life and thankfully, her children knew nothing of the incident. This season of RHOBH opened on the days immediately after the break-in. Her castmates rushed to her side to support her and she continues to struggle with PTSD and panic attacks.
Despite having a rocky relationship, Dorit still expected to hear something from LVP. But Lisa immediately went on the defense, insisting that she did reach out to PK via text message. Lisa tweeted out a screen shot and wrote, “Of course I reached out to PK!” The text she shared said, “I’m so sorry to hear what transpired glad that you’re all safe.”
To take it one step further, Lisa even gave Page Six access to her phone to prove it. She showed the same message, dated 3 days after the robbery. The iMessage was marked “delivered,” debunking Kyle Richard’s theory that one of them was blocked and therefore, no message was received. Even so, PK still denied receiving anything and made a shady post on Instagram about getting detectives on the case.

The cast of The Boys might be getting even more supernatural in season four. After former Supernatural star Jensen Ackles made a splash with his appearance as Solider Boy in season...
Selling Sunset is staying on the market. The hit Netflix show, which details the dramatic highs and lows of The Oppenheim Group and the high-end glitz of Los Angeles real estate, has...Glam has been a hot topic of conversation lately. On a recent episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Erika Jayne admitted it’s something she can’t “downsize.” Despite being sued left and right, not to mention the optics, Erika considers her glam “art.” Uber rich cast members like Kyle Richards and Crystal Kung Minkoff expressed how silly it was to spend so much money on unnecessary glam. Like when you’re going to dinner on the beach. But Erika is someone who previously boasted paying $40K a month on glam and clothes.
But not every housewife can afford to do full glam, even with Housewives repping itself as aspirational. See Gina Kirschenheiter who spent her first few seasons on Real Housewives of Orange County rocking some unfortunate extensions. Now former RHOBH cast member Teddi Mellencamp is blaming glam for her demise from the show.
As reported by Reality Blurb, Teddi talked about it on an episode of Melissa Gorga’s podcast On Display. When talk turned to why Teddi thinks she was fired, she provided a surprising response. She shared, “Well, I think my very first season, I started out — this is gonna sound, I’m just gonna be blunt with you, I’m gonna be completely honest — I didn’t have much money.”
Teddi explained, “I dressed differently. I did everything differently. I couldn’t get glammed, none of that stuff, because you know how much you get paid your first season as a Housewife.” Melissa, who is a seasoned veteran chimed in to say “zero.” Teddi reiterated, “Like barely anything.” Melissa then noted, “I’m just gonna say ‘zero’ because after you pay for your first outfit and your first round of hair and makeup…”
Given that Teddi went on to another two full seasons on RHOBH, I’m not sure why she would think glam was the problem. She did step it up in her subsequent seasons. And we have seen plenty of housewives who don’t focus on glam. Bethenny Frankel comes to mind. Sure, she had hair and makeup as the show progressed, but she didn’t make it central to her persona on the show. It was shown as almost an afterthought. Unlike RHOBH, which gives us multiple scenes of the women in hair and makeup for just about every event.
Regardless, Teddi has previously said that she was “surprised” by her firing. She noted back in December, “At the end of my season, I was mad. I texted, the quote I texted was: ‘I’ve trended on Twitter every single week from hate and you aren’t giving me anything else but the negative. Please, I’m doing the work, I’m showing up. I need you to show my life in some other capacity.’ And ultimately, the goodbye happened two weeks later.”

Eight former Housewives are about to rock the Berkshires. Season two of Peacock's Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip (now streaming) is bringing together some of the most beloved...What a sweetheart! Following his breakup with former The Bachelorette Katie Thurston, John Hersey is continuing to support his ex-girlfriend by imploring haters to “speak more kindly.”
After an Internet troll placed the blame on Katie for not being able to “get a guy,” John quickly jumped in to defend her honor, as reported by Us Magazine.
“You will speak a finite number of words throughout your life. I urge you to speak more kindly. Especially about someone you don’t know,” John clapped back in response to the comment. “I have never been so supported or unconditionally loved by a partner. Assuming and implying that Katie is doing anything wrong does not sit right with me.”
John concluded his response with the request, “The Internet can be a mean place — let’s not add to it.”
Katie first hinted at a breakup on Monday, June 20, when she wrote on her Instagram, “Statement: No, we aren’t together.”
John also confirmed the breakup the next day by posting on his Instagram, “I love being able to share special moments with you all — the funny ones. The happy ones. The outrageous, embarrassing, and heartfelt ones. But I don’t know if it will ever get easier to share the sad ones. As Katie stated earlier, we are no longer dating . . . This decision was not made lightly, and it was obviously not an easy one to make.”
He concluded with, “I appreciate every one of you that has supported us throughout this journey. We could not (and would not) be here without you.”
Katie and John first met on Season 17 of The Bachelorette, but the timing apparently wasn’t right for them, as she sent him home on week two.
Katie went on to get engaged to Blake Moynes in the finale, but the two split only three months after the show finished airing (sadly closer to the norm than the exception in Bachelor Nation). At the time of their breakup, Blake implied that Katie had “emotionally cheated on him” with John.
“I really don’t think there was any physical cheating there,” Blake admitted at the time. “But there [was] clearly emotional [cheating] for it to transition as quickly as it did. I feel stupid and foolish for allowing it to happen, to some degree.”
Katie denied that there was ever any overlap between the two relationships.
“We both knew our relationship was not working out,” the former bank marketing manager said of Blake’s reaction. “My relationship with Blake was a very separate situation [from] my relationship with John. There was not overlap. There was nothing but respect. It’s just two different situations.”
John also came to Katie’s defense at the time, claiming that Blake was “capitalizing” off the broken engagement, implying that her ex was just trying to get more attention and publicity.
In Katie‘s defense, John stated, “I watched how much effort she put into that relationship while it was falling apart. And what really pissed me off . . . was when there started to be a narrative get painted that she was putting no effort in, and Blake was the only one putting effort in at the end.”
“And furthermore,” John continued, “that in that time, where she was ‘absent,’ that she was somehow emotionally cheating with me . . . It just pissed me off.”
You tell ’em, John! How many guys out there would defend their ex-girlfriend so vociferously after their breakup? I nominate John to go to Bachelor in Paradise. This guy deserves to find love — and also to get a free Mexican vacation.
