These days, it seems impossible to survive financially without some kind of side hustle. We can talk about the failings of the world’s economic systems later. For now, let’s talk about Housewives.
Whether it’s a clothing line, beauty products, or podcast, Housewives are always trying to make some extra cash on the side. And who can blame them? With their notoriety, they might as well try to entertain other pursuits off-camera.
Instagram page @therealhousewiveszone archived a video that Leah created, uploading the saved video to IG on November 30, 2023. “I am such a happy, proud member of OF,” Leah proclaimed while walking down the street. She claimed she couldn’t say “OnlyFans” due to Meta’s guidelines (supposedly), but then she said it regardless.
Leah went on to claim, “I made more in one week – I’m not saying this to show off, it’s just incredible – I made more in one week than I did for one episode of RHONY that I had to trade my soul for.” Many IG commenters tried to point out that Leah wouldn’t have a following, and by extension, OF buyers, if not for RHONY.
She concluded her announcement by saying, “This is absolutely incredible … Hot photos! Do you know how many hot photos I’ve sent for free to losers? This is incredible.” She then repeated, “I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner.” At the end of the day, everyone’s trying to get that bag, no matter how.

Welcome to The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 4, Episode 13 recap. In this week’s episode, “Bermuda Views and Bathtub Blues,” Meredith is under the weather but takes a turn for the worse when she gets a room without a bathtub. Whitney and Lisa are still avoiding each other after their blowout last week until Heather winds Lisa up and causes a huge fight at dinner. Following one of the most unpleasant dinners ever, Monica and Meredith bond over wine, leftovers, and more dirt about Angie. Here are some of the highlights from RHOSLC Season 4, Episode 13.
All the ladies gather at the airport to catch an early morning flight to Bermuda for Monica’s birthday. Nobody really knows anything about the place they’re going.
“Pirate ships, sunken treasure,” Heather says is all she knows about Bermuda. “I bet we find Lisa’s ring!”
After they land and pile into the Sprinter van, Meredith asks if the driver can raise the temperature a bit. She’s freezing. But Heather puts the kibosh on that idea. “She not in charge of the temperature,” she tells the driver.
The mansion Heather booked for them to stay in is gigantic! Rather than pre-assigning rooms, Heather lets them all run around like 10-year-olds calling dibs. Meredith’s still not feeling well, so she’s slow. She claims the last room. It has a fabulous view, but, alas, no bathtub. In a pout, she chooses to “take a nap,” rather than join the others for lunch.
Monica takes some lunch to Meredith in her room. The jewelry designer tells Monica she’s upset that she’s obviously not feeling well and nobody made sure she got a tub. They even mentioned on the van that Meredith would feel better after a good soak.
Even though Monica loves Meredith and she’s concerned about her, she laughs in a confessional that it’s not enough to give up her room. Heather also admits on camera that she only wants the bathtub to throw her dirty clothes in. That’s disgusting.
Meredith gets a text from production asking how she is. “I’m really not good,” she says. So a medic arrives to check on her, carrying the biggest backpack I’ve ever seen. He decides she’s dehydrated and gives her an IV.

While eating lunch with Lisa, Heather says that Whitney’s been saying she’s been “coaching” Lisa to be more “self-aware” and to be a better person.
“Whitney said that she’s been helping you, like, not make it all about you,” Heather says. “She’s, like, really proud of you for not reacting strongly to things and how you’re changing the way you are.”
Lisa’s shocked to hear this news. “Wait, what?” she says. “What are you talking about?”
“She said she’s proud of you,” Heather repeats. “She basically said, ‘You’d be shocked if you knew … the hard talks I have with Lisa and how well she’s doing’ … She’s helping you be intuitive and healing and coaching you on how to not react to things … You’re becoming a better person because of your friendship. You don’t feel like that?”
“No,” Lisa bluntly answers. She’s stunned by what Heather’s telling her. “Do I enjoy our friendship? 100%. But I never looked at it, like, “Oh, my gosh, I feel like I’m a better person with Whitney Rose.”
Heather’s obviously just trying to stir up trouble between Whitney and Lisa. The Wild Rose Beauty owner will hear about this later.
At dinner that night, Whitney brings up that her “fillings” were hurt by Lisa. Can’t you leave that poor dead horse alone, Whitney?
Lisa once again says she’s sorry Whitney was hurt, but she adds that it feels like Whitney’s taking her grief out on her instead of wanting somebody to grieve with her. Then Lisa mentions that Heather told her Whitney said she’s “self-absorbed and you’re helping me be a better person.”
These women are in paradise and all they can do is scream at each other. Meanwhile, Meredith and Angie are just glad it’s not them screaming at each other, as they clink their wine glasses.
Finally, Whitney says, “Heather, shut the f*ck up.” Ouch. Is Whitney drunk? That was pretty rude and hurtful.
“Don’t you ever say ‘shut the f*ck up to me,’ Heather yells. “That doesn’t have anything to do with anything we’re fighting about.”
Whitney immediately backs down and timidly says, “Okay.”
The thunder claps and the clouds open. They decide they’d better head back to the house.
“What a lovely dinner,” Whitney says. Did they even eat?

Back at the house, Meredith’s still upset about not having a tub. She and Monica have a glass of wine and nibble at the leftovers from dinner, while everyone else goes off to bed. Monica’s trying to be Meredith’s friend. Why doesn’t she just swap rooms with her? That would get her some brownie points.
“It all feels very fifth grade,” Meredith says. Absolutely! “No more deja poo. I’ve seen this sh*t before.”
Monica brings up some dirt about Angie. She thinks Angie could be in the Greek Mafia. Both she and Meredith received a DM message about Angie and Shawn being bankrupt and having tax liens against their home. Monica says the message included documentation. They’re not as wealthy as they want everyone to believe.
Hold that thought. I think we’re going to hear more about that next week on RHOSLC.

Note: Countless blind items have proven to be false and based on nothing but speculation in the past. Everything suggested by a blind item should be taken with a mountain of salt, rather than just a pinch.
A recent blind item suggests that Andy Cohen and John Mayer are now officially dating, after moving in together. Of course, blind items are often just a shot in the dark, without a lot of evidence, or any evidence at all, to back them up. The fact that this one describes Andy as an “annoying late night host” might suggest the creator has an axe to grind. What better way to do that, than to stoke the flames of one particular rumor that seems to have been doing the rounds since the beginning of time?
As of right now, there is no evidence to suggest Andy Cohen and John Mayer are actually dating. There is also nothing that would confirm the pair have moved in together, though reports earlier this year suggested they were house hunting.
In saying that, even if they were now sharing living arrangements, that wouldn’t be anything groundbreaking. Friends move into the same place all of the time. It may be a little unconventional, sure, but “conventional” means “normal,” and “normal” is just another word for “boring.”
Andy and John clearly care for one another. Their relationship is something consistently put under the spotlight. Andy said he and John are “in love,” but that their relationship is completely platonic. They were actually “butthurt” about the headlines that were born as a result of those comments. Let’s hope they can laugh this one off! Unless it’s true, of course. To which we would say, mazel.

In 2013, after just four seasons on the show, Alexis Bellino was fired from Real Housewives of Orange County. At the time, sources close to the show said Alexis had just run her course. Of course, that never stopped Housewives like Tamra Judge or Shannon Beador from being invited back season after season.
Even after Tamra was let go, she was invited back just a few seasons later. Now, there are talks of whether Alexis might come back to OC as well. If Alexis were to come back, the dynamic with Shannon could be interesting.
Recently, rumors began stirring of a romantic relationship between Alexis and John Janssen, Shannon’s ex. John and Alexis were spotted having dinner together. Now, multiple sources have weighed in on the rumored romance.
Tamra was wrong about John and Alexis
On the November 29 episode of her podcast, Tamra spoke to rumors surrounding Alexis and John, bringing up their restaurant spotting. “Alexis Beador calls Shannon Beador’s ex, John Janssen, a new friend,” Tamra read, saying, “This is another thing that is so stupid but went so viral.”
She continued, “They decided to take a picture together, and then all of a sudden, all hell broke loose and they’re dating.” So, Tamra set the record straight, confirming, “No, they’re not dating. No. Just so ridiculous that you can’t even take a picture with anybody nowadays.” Tamra posited that Alexis and John had only met that night.
Unfortunately for Tamra, not even one week later, she would be proven wrong. On December 5, PEOPLE confirmed that Alexis and John had in fact taken up a relationship together. “Currently, they’re not using labels like boyfriend or girlfriend,” a source claimed, “but they’ve been spending a lot of time together and have been enjoying learning about each other.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 18 should be interesting…
