Welcome to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14, Episode 2 recap. Last time, Dorit and PK shocked the ladies when they announced their separation. And then Dorit shocked the fans by smoking a cigarette while driving around Beverly Hills.

When Kyle tried to talk with Dorit about their problems, she encountered a new Dorit. She wasn’t taking any of Kyle’s sh*t, and Kyle was confused. What happened to her? And how can we swap this Dorit for the previous model?

Next, we were introduced to the newest housewife, the fabulous Bozoma Saint John. She is already friends with Sutton and also hit it off with Dorit. Here’s what happened in RHOBH Season 14, Episode 2: “A Sobering Separation.”

What happened in Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14, Episode 2?

This episode continued with the tense confrontation between Dorit and Kyle. Dorit called out Kyle for saying that Dorit “exaggerated” their friendship. In her confessional, Dorit stated, “We have so many memories, so many intimate moments. It felt like she took eight years of a deep sisterly friendship and flushed it down the toilet.” Okay then.

Of course, Kyle pointed to Dorit’s supposed joke at BravoCon about rating the Richards sisters. Then she accused Dorit of telling people at BravoCon that Kyle was crying onstage just for attention. However, Dorit isn’t buying what Kyle is selling.

She believes that it was comments that she made on Watch What Happens Live that infuriated Kyle. Dorit said that when Morgan Wade and Kyle became friends, Dorit was left by the wayside.

But Dorit wasn’t done. She told Kyle that she iced her out for months. After Kyle responded that she “was struggling,” Dorit fired back. “That doesn’t mean because you’re struggling, you can just treat me like sh*t,” she said.

“I’ve been a good f*cking friend! I don’t care what you say,” Kyle exclaimed. “Just because you say it, doesn’t make it true.” She added, “It’s these last two years, the hardest two years of my life. Could you give me a little f*cking grace?”

As Kyle walked away, Dorit responded, “I think I did. Grace time is over!” So is Sutton’s Surrealism party after that spectacle.

However, both ladies shared their feelings in their confessionals. “This is not a friendship,” Kyle stated. Dorit was a bit more pointed. “I’m fed up with the friendship, I’m fed up with the marriage, and I’m fed up with having felt the way I felt. I’m not going to keep my mouth shut about it … I don’t give a f*ck,”  she said. After adding that she was no longer the same woman, she flipped off the camera. You go, girl!

After working for 25 years in corporate America, Bozoma (aka Boz) has received lots of accolades. In fact, Forbes named her one of the most influential CMOs (Chief Marketing Officers) in the world. Even though she is retired, she is busier than ever with her workshops, advocacy, and podcast appearances.

We learned a bit about Boz’s backstory, too. While she expected to marry her “Black Prince Charming,” instead she fell in love with a red-headed Irishman named Daniel Saint John. They were total opposites, but it worked for them.

Then Boz reflected on how he was diagnosed with terminal cancer and passed away just three months later. You can see that she is still haunted by the fact that her daughter never got to experience him as a father, and he was robbed of being her dad. It was a moving moment.

Sutton and Kyle had lunch, and Sutton was ready to give Kyle her best advice – especially because Kyle didn’t ask for it. For her part, Kyle is convinced that everything will be a 50/50 split. Apparently, her husband, Mauricio Umansky, mentioned in his book that without Kyle, he wouldn’t have The Agency.

Pardon Sutton’s skepticism. After her horrible divorce experience, Sutton learned one important lesson. “Men do not like parting with their money,” she stated in her confessional. It sounds like Sutton’s divorce was pure hell.

After Sutton urged her to file, Kyle became annoyed. Of course, Sutton was trying to help her friend, but Kyle didn’t appreciate it. And as for Dorit? Kyle is furious at her and how she is “oblivious” to other people’s feelings.

Boz hosted Dorit and Erika at her house for a visit. Her home is stunning! When Boz asked what happened with Kyle, Dorit explained that Kyle was flip-flopping about the reasons why she was mad at her. Plus, Kyle has rules for herself, and another set for everyone else. Basically, Dorit is mad as hell, and she is not going to take it anymore.

Meanwhile, Erika, who will be playing Switzerland this season, noted that she can see both sides of the ladies’ gripes. Finally, Dorit dropped a bomb. She shared that when PK was drinking, if they would fight, he might leave for weeks. WOW.

Right now, the kids are used to him being gone, so she tells them that he is working. When asked if there is a chance for a reconciliation, Dorit responded, “There’s always that possibility.” Maybe someone should tell PK that.

Sutton and Kathy concoct a plan to cheer up Kyle

Sutton called Kathy Hilton and they hatched a scheme to cheer up Kyle. Operation “Pizza and PJs” commenced with Sutton, Kathy, and Erika heading over to Kyle’s with all the supplies. They wanted to terrify surprise Kyle, so at the gate, Kathy pretended to be a delivery driver. And she buzzed them in. Once Kyle recovered from the shock of seeing them all at the door, the ladies made pizza and goofed around. It was amazing watching them have fun again.

However, at her lunch with Sutton, Kyle shared that Mauricio had replaced a photo of them in his office with a photo of him and his Dancing with the Stars partner, Emma Slater. I guess the rumors must have been true. This photo switch-up hurt Kyle tremendously.

As they ate the pizza, Kyle mentioned reminiscing and looking at her wedding photos. “I mean, you look like you could be his daughter. He has aged,” Kathy said of Mauricio. After Kathy made fun of Mauricio’s gym selfies, Kyle told her sister to stop.

Dorit and PK met for dinner. It’s only been a few days since they announced their separation. While Dorit believed they would discuss navigating this separation together, that’s not what PK had in mind. First of all, he is wearing new clothes. He stood up and showed them off, referring to himself as “single PK.” That hit Dorit hard.

Then PK discussed how his drinking wasn’t the problem, but a symptom of the problems. “You’re my best friend, and you’re my wife. And we don’t speak to each other nicely,” he said. He added that while they love each other, they don’t like each other sometimes.

Overall, he felt like he stopped drinking, but Dorit didn’t make any changes. She still goes low whenever they argue. Plus, Dorit makes him feel “less than.” Of course, Dorit apologized.

Finally, he said that they would always be family, and she could call if she ever needed anything, and vice versa. So, where will they go from here? It sounds like PK is planning to get a divorce and find someone else.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5, Episode 8 Recap: There’s Blood in Your Eye

Photo Credit: Laurent Basset/Bravo via Getty Images

We’re back with the recap for Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5, Episode 8. Last week, Daisy and Captain Glenn both urged Chef to step up his game, and he finally took their advice to heart. On the crew night out, Danni tried to flirt with Keith, but he wasn’t interested in Gary’s sloppy seconds. Gary had a chat with Emma about her lack of initiative. And the Parsifal III was endangered by another boat that drifted too close late at night, forcing Gary to take emergency measures. Here’s exactly what went down in BDSY Season 5, Episode 8: “An Eye for a Decline.”

What happened in Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5, Episode 8?

In this week’s episode, the crew manages to avert a collision with the boat drifting in the night, and Glenn and Gary agree that Emma has to go. On the crew night out, Gary gets a little too drunk because he’s feeling bad about Emma. When the horseplay gets out of hand, Davide is injured and bleeds all over the white couch (it’s not the first time somebody’s made a mess of that couch). Glenn’s gonna be so pissed about that. Here are some of the highlights from BDSY Season 5, Episode 8.

A near-collision provides late-night excitement

When last we left BDSY, another boat was drifting into the Parsifal III in the dark of night. Gary was trying to get the attention of the occupants, but meanwhile, he sent Danni to wake Captain Glenn and Emma. It’s all hands on deck to prevent a collision.

It’s a near miss, but no contact. The crew manages to avoid a crash this time, and the other boat drifts off into the night. As much as Gary tries to raise someone by whistling and yelling, either no one’s awake or there’s just no one aboard. That’s an expensive boat to just let it drift onto the rocks.

As everyone is trying to avert a crash, even Danni, who’s not on the deck crew, lends a hand, Emma’s just dawdling in her cabin. “Where’s Em?” Gary asks. Once again, Emma’s “lack of urgency” rears its lazy head.

About that time, Keith returns from shore with the guests who’d been out clubbing. Gary tells him to go knock on the hull of the drifting boat and see if he can wake anyone.

Finally, Keith’s able to rouse someone, and they come up onto the deck. “Your anchor’s dragging. You almost hit us,” he tells them.

“Smells like pot,” observes Brandon, one of the primaries. They decide that the guy is high as a kite and doesn’t understand the seriousness of the situation.

“Mate, you nearly t-boned a $20 million super yacht,” Keith interviews. “Like, that’s not a bill you wanted to be picking up in your tighty-whiteys or whatever.”

So, a little extra excitement for the guests at 3:30 in the morning. No extra charge.

The next morning, everyone’s short on sleep and patience. Talking to Gary about the close call during the night, Glenn says, “It’s a struggle with the people that we have to stay properly manned, right? [Emma] doesn’t seem to be keen to be here.”

“What’s going to happen if that happens, and she’s on nights?” Gary asks. “She still can’t manage to control the tender.”

“Let’s see what I can do,” Glenn says, suggesting he’ll try to replace her.”

Emma can feel Gary’s impatience with her. She can’t seem to do anything right and tells Danni she thinks Gary wants to replace her.

Danni thinks she’s in her head, but then we see Glenn texting the staffing agent: “Hi, do you have any available deckhands to start ASAP?”

Poor Emma is really struggling. She can’t seem to remember anything Gary’s shown her so far. She can’t remember how to tie off the tenders, how to throw the heaving line, or anything else. Focus, Em! Gary’s getting really frustrated with her. She’s also very frustrated with herself.

Emma’s “overthinking everything and making stupid mistakes.”

Even the chief engineer, Davide, notices, “Emma’s her own worst enemy … She’s so scared of messing up, that’s preventing her [from doing] everything.”

At the tip meeting, Gary announces that tomorrow, the crew will have the whole day off. What a treat!

They’re going to explore some local caves, and Glenn will be joining them because he “loves caves.” Afterward, Glenn will return to the boat while the crew enjoys the rest of the day at the O Beach Club. That should put everybody in a better mood. Danni’s hoping she’ll run into Anthony, who she met when they were there with the guests on Charter One.

Glenn finally drops the hammer on Emma

Gary asks if he can meet with Captain Glenn. “I think you know the problem I’m having with Emma,” he says.

“Yeah, I’ve noticed it,” Glenn replies. “I’m trying to show her stuff, too, but it’s not getting through. She’s struggling.”

“At this point, she’s not a capable deckhand on this boat,” Glenn concludes. “I think we only have one choice … We just have to move forward and get somebody else in.”

“I feel that Gary and I have given Emma ample opportunities to prove her value,” Glenn interviews. “I just think she hasn’t taken them.”

Gary gets emotional when he realizes he has to talk to Emma, but he pulls her from her cabin anyway and takes her to talk to Glenn.

“You’re not delivering what we need in Gary’s department,” Glenn says. “For me, you’re not showing the initiative that I would expect and that we really need to do this job. People have to pick up the slack. We need somebody in your position that has more skills than you’re showing now. I’m gonna have to let you go.”

“In the nicest way possible, I really don’t want to carry on this conversation,” Emma says. She knows she’s getting emotional, and she doesn’t want to embarrass herself by crying in front of Gary and Glenn.

Saying she appreciates everything, she really can’t do this anymore. And she practically runs from the room, even though Glenn’s not done talking.

“We have to talk,” he says. “You can’t just run away.”

But she’s over it and heads out the door, sniffling. She runs back to her cabin and tells Daisy, “They fired me.”

“I feel like I’ve been the scapegoat,” she says, still not taking any accountability for her own poor job performance.

Emma’s goodbye tour (except for Gary and Keith)

When Emma tells Danni and Diana that she’s been fired, she says, “I’m going to go have a cigarette, calm down, and go speak to Glenn again.”

When she returns to Glenn, she says, “I’m really sorry. I am ready.”

“This is not something rash,” Glenn explains. “This is something that [both Gary and I] have been observing. There is an expectation of ability. There’s an expectation of experience. It’s something that you have to get on your own … You just need to go out and get some more [experience].”

Gary has to call his mommy for comfort. “I feel like such a d*ck,” he tells her.

“This isn’t how I wanted the season to end,” Emma says in a confessional. “I do feel a bit at a loss. I feel like I need a few days to actually absorb everything … I’ve met some really amazing people … I’m gonna be forever grateful.”

Glenn calls a meeting in the lounge and explains that he’s had to let Emma go. “She just wasn’t able to do the job the way she needed to,” he says.

Keith’s a little bothered that he had no clue. He was napping, and she didn’t even tell him goodbye. He and Gary are in the same boat. She didn’t tell him goodbye either.

There will be blood

At dinner, Gary’s feeling down. When he and Daisy go for a smoke, he tells her, “I feel like maybe I could have been a better teacher and a better leader.”

“You can only manage somebody who wants to be managed,” Daisy responds. Despite their past differences, Daisy still cares about Gary and hates to see him upset.

“Deep down inside, I know it’s the right choice,” he says. “But it was f*cking hard.”

Daisy says that “deep down,” Emma knows he did the right thing. “Stop being so hard on yourself. You’re gonna learn, and you’re gonna grow, but the important thing is that you’re trying.”

When they return to the boat, Gary’s feeling better, mostly because he’s drunk. A little horseplay with Davide ends with the chief engineer getting bashed in the eye when Gary lobs a sucker at him.

Though they’re both laughing hysterically, Davide’s actually bleeding. He not only gets blood on the floor of the lounge, but he gets it all over the white couch. Uh oh. Captain Glenn’s not going to be happy about that.

Andy Cohen Doesn’t Understand Hate for Teddi Mellencamp: ‘She’s Very Smart’

There’s just something about Teddi Mellencamp that drives people crazy, and frankly, Andy Cohen can’t wrap his head around it.

When she was on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, people called her boring. She left the show and started a podcast with Tamra Judge. People still send her hate. What exactly did Teddi do to get so much hostility? Andy recently weighed in on the phenomenon.

Teddi has been on our brains this month thanks to her marriage blowing up right before our eyes. She announced her split from husband Edwin Arroyave, and then shortly after, we learned about a scandalous romp she had with her horse trainer.

With that in mind, a fan asked Andy during a panel at Bravo’s Fan Fest if he could envision her making a return to RHOBH, or perhaps making the switch over to Real Housewives of Orange County. Bravo’s The Daily Dish reported on the moment.

“It doesn’t seem like the crowd is that enthusiastic,” Andy said about a potential Teddi return.

“I don’t know why she has become such a villain in the audience’s perspective,” Andy continued. “She seems to be a truth-teller and she’s very smart, I think. But I don’t know.”

Regardless of how fans feel about Teddi, the Watch What Happens Live host went on to clarify that producers weren’t thinking about RHOBH casting right now. After all, Season 14 just started, and they have all of their bases covered with divorce and separation storylines. Similarly, Andy said the roster is full with RHOC.

“I think we’re good right now for OC,” Andy said.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs new episodes every Tuesday on Bravo at 8/7c.

TELL US – WHY DO YOU THINK FANS HAVE SUCH A STRONG REACTION TO TEDDI? WOULD YOU WANT TO SEE HER BACK ON TV AS SHE NAVIGATES HER SPILT FROM EDWIN?
