Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards burst into tears onstage at BravoCon last week when the subject of her separation from Mauricio Umansky came up.

“This is not my idea of my fairy tale, clearly,” she said, wiping away tears. The mom of four daughters also mentioned that “a lot of people” are urging her to “fix everything” with Mauricio and “pull it together.”

“Obviously, that’s what I want,” she said, her voice choked by tears.

Hurtful rumors of infidelity

Kyle and Mo announced in July 2023 that they were separating after 27 years of marriage. While there was no specific reason for the split at the time, the couple stressed that there was no “wrongdoing on anyone’s part.”

“We both love and respect each other tremendously,” they said in the joint statement.

Not long after the announcement, however, rumors arose that Kyle was in a romantic relationship with country singer Morgan Wade, even though they maintain that they’re “just very good friends.”

A steamy music video muddies the waters

Amid speculation that Kyle and Morgan were “more than just friends,” Morgan’s new music video dropped in August. The video, filmed months earlier, fanned the flames of a lesbian romance. Kyle said she had the support of her family prior to filming, so there were no surprises there.

“My family knew I was making the video before I made the video,” she shared.

RHOBH co-star Dorit Kemsley chimed in and explained that Kyle filmed the video well before she and Mo announced their separation.

“She filmed the video beforehand,” Dorit clarified. “It just was bad timing.”

Kyle has previously spoken about how difficult the public separation from Mauricio has been. “It’s playing out with so many people having eyes on us,” she said in August.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills continues Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

Newbie alert! BravoCon 2023 featured a screening of The Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, and we learned that there’s new blood coming to the group.

Bravo’s Daily Dish officially announced that the latest addition to RHODubai is Taleen Marie.

So, who is this new Housewife getting ready to grace our screens alongside Chanel Ayan, Caroline Stanbury, and the rest of the Dubai ladies? We’ve got the tea.

Meet Taleen

The Dubai Housewives were due for another cast member. Nina Ali announced her departure shortly after Season 1 wrapped, and they needed someone to fill in that gap. Taleen has risen to the occasion!

As everyone whooped it up at BravoCon, Taleen took to Instagram to celebrate the news of her casting. She wrote, “Happy to finally announce that I am the newest Real Housewife of Dubai season 2!! Thank you @bravotv and @bravoandy for your continued support and love through this unbelievable journey. I feel so blessed and excited to be a part of the @nbcuniversal and Bravo franchise.”

Taleen describes herself on Instagram as a mom of two and the CEO of Talfitness. The website linked in her bio definitely doesn’t work, but the Instagram account she shared revealed an aspiring fitness influencer with a “digital program coming soon.” Now that she’s part of the Housewives universe, perhaps she can reach out to Shereé Whitfield for tips on how a Real Housewife can get a website back up and running.

According to her social media, the mission of her fitness brand is “transforming the body, activating the mindset, and living the life you create and desire!” That sounds like a big promise, and we can’t wait to see what mindset she activates on the Real Housewives of Dubai.

Bravo hasn’t announced an official premiere date for Season 2, but it’s expected to hit our screens sometime in 2024.

Real Housewives of Potomac Brought Robyn and Juan Dixon ‘Together’

A lot happened in Bravo Land this past weekend. BravoCon took over Las Vegas, with a full lineup of stars, panels, fashion, and more. Also, the new season of Real Housewives of Potomac premiered. And as such, all that drama was fresh for the cast to comment on. And a lot happened in just the first episode.

Robyn Dixon’s relationship was under scrutiny, as news outlets reported on Juan Dixon’s movements with a female co-worker. Her castmates even sat her down for an intervention of sorts, during which Robyn continued to defend her husband in a nasal monotone. Well, without the infidelity clause, there’s hardly anything to get excited about in her situation is there?

And Robyn had an additional chance to respond during the Real Housewives of Potomac panel at BravoCon in Las Vegas.

“It’s been hard because I understand why we do the things that we do,” Robyn said. “Juan and I started dating when were 17. We’re not only best friends, [our] lives were very intertwined.”

She claimed that her “relationship is very different from what is captured,” on camera and that editing does not do it any justice.

But the couple chose to present a united front against all the rumors and speculations about Juan’s infidelity. And Robyn was tasked with offering explanations for all of his questionable sightings.

She explained, “It’s been hard for people not understanding the depth of our relationship. The show brought us together because of all the scrutiny. So we were forced to really have each other’s back.”

As much as Juan claimed that he “doesn’t care,” the couple isn’t so solid that the constant scrutiny doesn’t affect them. During the RHOP season premiere, Robyn stated that that her joy had been taken away.

And while the panel was in progress, Robyn added, “It’s the outside noise that really tears each other apart.”

Sadly, it seems that this marital strife will continue to play out as the RHOP season progresses. At least Robyn can count on her friends to pull her through.

Catch the Real Housewives of Potomac Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo.

TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ROBYN’S COMMENTS AT BRAVOCON? DO YOU THINK HER MARRIAGE IS UNFAIRLY PORTRAYED? DO YOU THINK THE SHOW HELPED OR HURT THEIR MARRIAGE?

RHONJ Season 14: Jackie Goldschneider Says ‘Unexpected’ Teresa Giudice Friendship ‘Grew Organically’

During Season 11 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, star Teresa Giudice unleashed a cheating rumor about Evan Goldschneider. His wife, Jackie Goldschneider, was furious. She made an analogy about Teresa’s teenage daughter, Gia Giudice, using drugs. And she and Teresa never saw eye to eye after that. Until now.

Jackie was besties with RHONJ co-stars Margaret Josephs and Melissa Gorga. And Teresa and Melissa were straight-up enemies. We must be in an alternate universe because now Jackie is Team Teresa. And then Melissa was caught on video, shading Jackie. “Jackie wants to be invited to every single party,” Melissa remarked. And of course, the video made the rounds on social media.

Meanwhile, Margaret and Jackie were always close. Reportedly, when Jackie handed out copies of her new book, The Weight of Beautiful, at Dolores Catania’s charity softball game, she neglected to give Margaret a copy. And that incident sparked the bad blood.

Do Jackie and Teresa have a solid friendship?

Jackie spoke to US Weekly at BravoCon and dished about her new relationship with Teresa. She called their friendship, “new, growing, and mutually respectful … unexpected.” I’ll say!

“It was really organic. It was like we were just talking at a party and then we were talking more, and then we started calling each other and then we hung out and started hugging,” Jackie explained. “We like each other. Yeah, it really grew organically.”

But while Jackie’s bond with Teresa has been flourishing, it sounds like her friendship with Margaret is dying on the vine. Jackie admitted that it was “very surprising” where her relationship with Margaret stands. “Sometimes friendships … they evolve. They come to an end,” the writer simply stated.

I’m glad there will be some drama during Season 14 of RHONJ. Even though it is from such an unexpected source.

TELL US – ARE YOU SHOCKED THAT JACKIE IS FRIENDS WITH TERESA? DO YOU THINK THAT MARGARET AND JACKIE WILL MEND THEIR FRIENDSHIP?
