When Kathy first left RHONJ, she and Melissa seemed to be on pretty good terms. Unfortunately, as with many New Jersey dilemmas, there’s the Teresa Giudice of it all. As Mel and Tre firmly split from one another, Kathy remained close to her first cousin.
When news came out that Kathy would be moving to Mel’s same street, Melissa felt a sense of hope. Kathy, however, was quick to throw shade. On WWHL, she called the street, “Melissa Way,” saying, “Apparently, she owns the street.”
How did Melissa Gorga respond to Kathy Wakile’s WWHL shade?
“She had a little negative flare when asked about us,” Melissa told her husband, Joe Gorga, on their podcast. “She mentioned something like, ‘Well, there’s acres, and these houses are on acres, so, we probably won’t see them anyway.’ I was a little taken [aback] by that … I thought [it would be] very nice and very – in a way of moving forward in some which way.”
She continued, “It wasn’t like a, ‘hey, I want you on the show, or like, I want you back in our lives.’ That wasn’t really what I was saying.” When Melissa first brought up that she and Kathy would live close by, she tried to radiate optimism. “It would be nice if we live on the same street,” she said, reflecting on her sentiment.
Melissa seemed to hope that she might bump into Kathy so they could “work it out and talk it out.” However, she had to ask herself if she regretted her kindness after what Kathy said on WWHL. Melissa said “it was weird” to hear Kathy say that after she felt she’d “extended an olive branch … Your loss. Stay on your side of the street.”

Buckle up, because the official sneak peek for RHOC Season 18, Episode 3 has arrived! Fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County know that Jennifer Pedranti was evicted from her rental home. Her castmate Gina Kirschenheiter is understandably upset since she helped Jenn get into the house.
In last week’s episode, Gina met with Jenn to discuss the situation. Jenn was clueless as to why Gina was so upset. She couldn’t understand that Gina pulled some strings for Jenn’s family to get into the house. Gina’s vouching for Jenn, who turned out to be flaky, puts Gina in an awkward spot with her agency. Jenn’s failure to pay her rent makes Gina look bad.
When they met for coffee, Gina was irritated that Jenn can still pay for professional glam (which ain’t cheap), buy new clothes, and get her nails done, but she can’t pay her rent. “I went out of my way to help you, and you burned me,” Gina said.
RHOC Season 18, Episode 3 sneak peek: Stay out of “Ding Dong Land”
Season 18, Episode 3 picks right back up where Episode 2 left off. Frustrated by Jennifer’s inability to understand her position, Gina stomps out of the coffee shop, muttering, “F*ck this girl!”
Driving away, she gets her bestie, Emily Simpson, on the Bluetooth and tells her that she’s in “utter shock” over Jenn’s reaction. In typical Emily fashion, she encourages Gina to “Move away from the ding dongs. Just let them live in Ding Dong Land.”
Meanwhile, Jenn’s on the phone with Shannon Beador. Even though Shannon sympathizes with Jennifer, she understands why Gina’s upset. Gina “went out on a limb” for Jenn, and Jenn effectively sawed off that limb.
Jennifer says the only money she has is what her ex-husband gives her since their divorce had yet to settle (at that time). Hello? Doesn’t Bravo pay her to be on RHOC? She also promotes products on her Instagram page and has over 60,000 followers, not to mention the money she earns from her Cameo page. Pay your rent, girl!
Gina jokes with Emily that they’ll see Jenn “on Saturday at the beach, I’m sure in full glam.”
“In full glam, full hair extensions,” Emily responds. “Malibu Broke Barbie.”

The Season 18 Real Housewives of Orange County premiere marks the 100th season of the Real Housewives franchise. So, naturally, it made sense to look back on some of the best moments throughout the years. The Bravo series has been a cult classic since 2006, and there have been some very memorable moments since then. Here, we take a look at some of the greatest Real Housewives moments of all time, running through 70-61!
70. Kathy Hilton struggles with the name of the Homeless Not Toothless charity
When news first broke that Kathy Hilton would be joining the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, fans were impressed with Bravo’s casting. In 2022, poor Kathy just couldn’t figure out how to say the name of Dorit Kemsley’s charity, Homeless Not Toothless. As the women met up at Lisa Rinna’s beauty event, they rehashed the previous night’s events.
Kathy, along with several other cast members, started to mock the charity as “Toothless Not Homeless.” As Dorit tried to correct them, Kathy felt personally attacked quickly, noting, “I have worked with the homeless; I have worked with the toothless.”
69. Dorinda Medley has some wise words: “Say it, forget it, write it, regret it”
You can always count on Dorinda Medley to add a bit of pizazz to whichever show she is on. The mother of one was famous for her one-liners. While some came about after a drunken tirade, others seemed like words to live by. But who knew Dorinda could just drop poetry like she did? Dorinda delivered the wise words while talking to Ramona Singer which came as a shock to many viewers. But Dorinda had learned over time that her mouth could get her in trouble. Dorinda loved the quote so much that she used it as the title of her debut memoir, Write It, Regret It.
68. Teresa Giudice reveals what she thinks POSCHE really stands for
Since the birth of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa Giudice has been giving her all in the name of reality TV. I never could tell where Teresa and Kim DePaola stood. One season, they were best of friends; the next, they weren’t. Kim was a staple in the early seasons thanks to the ladies shopping at her clothing boutique. But she fell out of favor with Tre towards the end. The mother of four lost her cool, yelling, “Posche stands for; piece of sh*t cokewh*re homewrecker every day.” I’ll admit that Teresa is a creative genius at times.
67. Porsha Williams disses Kenya Moore with “Bye ashy!”
Down in the ATL, it always seemed like Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore were at one another’s throats. If it wasn’t a bullhorn and scepter, it was something else. This classic moment came after yet another heated argument. Kenya noted, “Okay, you have a nice day.” To which Porsha noted, “You have a nice day.” A normal spectator would assume they were exchanging pleasantries. You’d be wrong.
In an attempt to have the last word, Porsha shouts, “And don’t contact me to come meet you and whatever else with your ashy feet.” Miss USA tried to take the high ground by once again saying bye, but Porsha had the last laugh, quipping, “Bye ashy!”
If there is one thing we know about Heather Dubrow it is to not mess with her meticulously planned parties. This Orange County fight was the definition of absurd. Heather had paid hundreds of dollars for a special cake and lost it when a friend of, named Sarah vandalized it. She stormed over to the group of women, noting, “I’m sorry, but that girl Sarah broke the bow off my cake and ate it.” Terry Dubrow was left stunned, asking, “Are you f*cking kidding me.” To which Heather quickly reminded him not to curse.
65. Luann de Lesseps has been traveling AND to prison
Luann de Lesseps had one busy year in 2018 between jetting off across Europe and, of course, being arrested. The series returned for its landmark tenth season, which was full of drama. Fans will recall Luann was arrested in December 2017 while in Palm Beach, FL. After a terrible mug shot and police dashcam video surfaced, Luann pretty much just wanted to crawl under a rock. She lamented in one scene, “I’ve been traveling, I’ve been to prison, and I just want to be close to home.”
64. Dana Wilkey’s $25,000 sunglasses
If I never have to hear about Dana Wilkey’s $25,000 sunglasses, it will be too soon. The one-season wonder loved to brag about her ability to splash the cash. She showed up to Kyle Richards’ casual BBQ begging for the women to ask about the accessories. Finally, she just word vomited out details, noting, “They’re like four carats of diamonds, and then they’re gold python, and they’re made of gold.” It wasn’t until years later the fans learned via The Daily Dish that she was given the sunnies as a gift.
63. Luann de Lesseps crazy camel ride
The Countess would have much preferred a proper steed, but alas, she was stuck with a camel. I have to be honest; seeing Luann getting bucked and hearing her high-pitched screams made me laugh harder than I care to admit. During the reunion, Luann noted that she had to hang on for dear life. Luckily, the animal calmed down, but Luann was left quite a mess.
62. Ashlee Holmes vs. Danielle Staub
During a Real Housewives of New Jersey aptly named “Staub Wounds,” Danielle Staub had the run of her life while at a New Jersey Country Club. First, Teresa chased her down, and then Ashlee Holmes finished the job while she was crying in a bush. Bravo cameras caught Ashlee yanking Danielle’s hair extensions right out of her head. At the time Ashlee was 18 and felt that she needed to stand up for her family. In the end, most charges were dropped, but she had to pay a fine.
61. Candiace Dillard Bassett worries “the white people are staring”
Gizelle Bryant and Karen Huger always had a love/hate relationship. But when they fought, they let it all out. During a cast trip to the Cayman Islands, the two women got into quite a heated fight right in the middle of the hotel lobby. Candiace Dillard Bassett had had enough of the spectacle, noting, “Y’all are too old to be yelling in the lobby. In the name of all that is good and holy, just shut the f*ck up. This is too much! The white people are staring!”
Candiace drove her point home, saying, “You two are really the matriarchs of this group. You are the most seasoned, and you have the most examples to show. The fact that you are screaming, carrying on like banshees in this lobby is crazy.”
Join us next weekend for another 20 of the greatest Real Housewives moments of all time!
TELL US – WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVORITE REAL HOUSEWIVES MOMENT OVER THE YEARS?
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Season 6 is officially here! The first new couple introduced this season was James Solis and his wife Meitalia Tantri Solis. James first met Meitalia online, and he flew to Indonesia after only two months of dating to meet her. After getting engaged, Meitalia later moved to the US to marry James. However, Meitalia has grown bored of her life in America and now plans to return to Indonesia with James.
Ironically, James and Meitalia have quite a lot in common with an infamous 90 Day Fiancé couple. The newbies share many similarities with Gino Palazzolo and Jasmine Pineda, who have become quite controversial in the franchise. Will James and Meitalia be as despised by fans as Gino and Jasmine? Or will the new couple forge a more positive path on the show?
Meitalia is very emotional like Jasmine

Right off the bat, Meitalia opened up to viewers about her strong emotions. The Indonesian native admitted that everything was always very emotional for her, and claimed that she could be “one to one thousand”. After James broke the news that their dog Jojo couldn’t come to Indonesia right away, Meitalia didn’t hold back. While it was understandable that the news was upsetting, Meitalia seemed over the top with the way she sobbed at screamed at James.
This may remind fans of Jasmine, who is also known for her constant crying and drama. Jasmine immediately showed this side of herself to viewers when she first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days. After learning that Gino’s ex-wife had picked out the paint colors in his home, Jasmine lost it. Many viewers felt that Jasmine was overreacting after she broke down sobbing. Since then, Jasmine’s segments have been filled with many more tears.
After a while, Jasmine’s crying got old and at this point, it’s just frustrating to watch. The Other Way Season 6 trailer teases Meitalia breaking down once more, this time to her parents. As Meitalia cries about being a burden, her father asks her to kiss her mother’s feet for forgiveness. This looks like another dramatic scene for Meitalia, who seems to be following in Jasmine’s emotional footsteps.
James and Gino are both scared of their wives

While Meitalia’s personality strongly resembles Jasmine’s, James is quite similar to Gino as well. From the second they were introduced, it was clear that James was terrified of Meitalia. When James joked about what Meitalia would do to him if he ever cheated, he started to chuckle nervously. After the producer asked why he was laughing, James joked that it was because Meitalia was just “so scary”.
If this sounds familiar, it might be because Gino has had an almost identical experience. Gino has a more timid personality, which is often overpowered by Jasmine’s louder persona. During their time on the show, it’s become pretty obvious that Jasmine makes Gino nervous. When Jasmine gets mad and yells at Gino, the fear radiates on his face. It will be interesting to see if Meitalia will have the same effect on James as the season continues.
Meitalia and Jasmine both had a hard time adjusting in the US

Another striking similarity between Meitalia and Jasmine is their dislike of life in America. Meitalia explained that it was too difficult for her to adjust to the cold weather in Maine. The cold made her miss the warm temperatures of Indonesia and made her incredibly homesick. Furthermore, Meitalia had a negative experience with doctors in the US, which gave her another reason to return to Indonesia.
By the same token, Jasmine also complained about the cold when she arrived in Michigan. It was evident that Jasmine only came to America since it was Gino’s wish, as she seemed happier in Panama. While Jasmine is still in the US, it appears that the move ultimately tore her and Gino apart. Will Meitalia’s wish to return to Indonesia cause a rift between her and James? Or will the new couple find happiness abroad?
TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK OF JAMES AND MEITALIA ON THE OTHER WAY? DO THEY REMIND YOU OF GINO AND JASMINE?
We are looking back at the funniest, most cringe-worthy, and dramatic moments across all franchises. Check out our selections for #80-71 in our countdown of the 100 best Real Housewives moments.
This came after Dorinda was able to set Luann up with several Jovani gowns for free. So, an alcohol-enhanced Dorinda came to Luann’s show, Countess and Friends, and heckled her by screaming “Jovani!” repeatedly. And I kind of loved it. Dorinda is usually at her best when she is fired up.
79. Mary Cosby claimed that Jen Shah “smelled like hospital” (RHOSLC)
During the debut season of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, we were introduced to Mary Cosby and her over-the-top frenemy Jen Shah. While Jen was hosting a birthday party for Meredith Marks, someone asked Mary about dissing Jen’s aroma. She responded, “I didn’t say she. I said, ‘It smells like hospital in here.’” But in her confessional, Mary admitted, “I’m sorry, but Jen and her entire crew smell like hospital.”
Mary explained that a long hospital stay rendered able to detect this enticing aroma. But Jen was having none of it. Jen exclaimed, “My aunt got double amputated and you said, ‘You smell like hospital!’” These ladies fight over the strangest issues.
78. Taylor Armstrong freaks out at Camille Grammer (RHOBH)
The scene quickly became chaotic, with all the ladies trying to calm an inebriated Taylor. When Camille’s friend called out Taylor for ignoring Camille’s apologies, Taylor broke down.
“I have been her friend. I have never hurt her!” Taylor screamed as the Beverly Hills ladies held her back. “She has hurt me so much! You have no idea what she has done to me!” This dramatic moment of Taylor shouting and pointing became an infamous cat meme during the pandemic. What a world we live in with the Real Housewives.
77. Bolo the stripper drives the ladies crazy (RHOA)
“How many arms do you have?” Porsha Williams asked as Bolo was gyrating on the floor. In a hilarious moment, Cynthia made it sprinkle when she pulled out some single bills for Bolo. Lordy!
After the performance, the Atlanta ladies shut off the cameras, except for some audio. Bolo stayed for a private dance for some of the tipsy peaches, before allegedly sleeping with at least one of the cast members.
76. Frankie and Peter Rosello rap for their mom, Alexia Nepola (RHOM)
Alexia was getting her groove on when she finally caught some of the lyrics. Something about being high and “hopping on that hoochie.” Oof. “Oh my God, Frankie, those lyrics,” Alexia said in her confessional. “My face says it all.”
75. Dorinda Medley confronts Candace Bushnell, uses now iconic line (RHONY)
When Ramona Singer hosted a dinner party, I’m sure she never expected Hurricane Dorinda. After insulting her RHONY co-star, Sonja Morgan, Dorinda confronted the author of Sex and the City, Candace Bushnell. What would Carrie Bradshaw do? Run!
“Here’s the thing, Candace. Do what you got to do, but don’t come here and extend a hand to me. ‘Hi Dorinda! How are you doing?’” Dorinda said. “You know, f*ck you. I’ll tell you how I’m doing. Not well, b*tch.”
74. Candiace Dillard Bassett throws Ashley Darby out, but offered a beverage first (RHOP)
Real Housewives of Potomac alum Candiace Dillard Bassett hosted the ladies at a dinner party at her home. But when things turned heated with Ashley Darby, Candiace’s husband Chris Bassett had to step out of the kitchen and hold his wife back. Ashley told Candiace, “I’m in your Mama’s house right now.” An innocent butter knife was flung at Ashley as Candiace screamed, “You will not talk about my mother!”
After ordering Ashley to leave, Candiace spoke to her guests. “Try me in that kangaroo restaurant,” she said, referencing Ashley and her husband Michael Darby’s Australian eatery. “Don’t try me in my house. I invited her into my home. I gave her a beverage,” Candiace added. That was Real Housewives hospitality at its finest.
73. Lisa Vanderpump gives Adrienne Maloof some cooking pointers (RHOBH)
Lisa Vanderpump decided to teach her pal Adrienne Maloof how to roast a chicken. Adrienne, already gloved up, was horrified when Lisa instructed her to “reach inside his bottom.” After removing the necessary parts, Lisa instructed Adrienne to wash her chicken.
So, Adrienne lathered him up with some soap and water. When Lisa asked if she just used soap, Adrienne replied, “Of course. I want to wash it.” Lisa was dumbfounded as Adrienne went on to explain the dangers of contracting salmonella. That was one squeaky-clean bird.
72. The drama over Beyoncé’s VVIP section (RHODubai)
But according to Caroline Brooks, she was so close to the superstar in the VIP section that she could smell Beyoncé’s conditioner. Then Caroline Stanbury shared how close she was to the singer. “I got wet from Beyonce,” Stanbury remarked, claiming that sweat from the dancing performer landed on her. And she shaded the VVIP for being “another block away.”
71. Luann de Lesseps slams Alex McCord’s fashion choice (RHONY)
During Season 4 of RHONY, Luann and Alex McCord met up for a coffee date. And the countess was shocked that Alex would have any issues with her from the group’s trip to Morocco.
“I was sitting there having a lovely moment with the ladies, and you came in in your Herman Munster shoes,” Luann said. “Um, they’re Louis Vuitton shoes, you know?” Alex replied.
“Well, you know, even Louis Vuitton makes mistakes,” Luann quipped. Another iconic moment from the cabaret star. Then Alex called her “rude.” In the end, I guess money didn’t buy the countess class – at least in Alex’s opinion.
Stay tuned for our next drop, where we will cover moments 70 to 61.

If you thought the premiere of Real Housewives of Orange Countylast week was epic, wait until you dive into Episode 2. This time, our favorite housewives are back in an episode entitled “Rent and Reputations.” Cue Taylor Swift’s “Ready for It,” obviously, we are unprepared! Tamra and Shannon finally come face-to-face in a pretty heated war of words. Jesus Jugs, Alexis finally gets to show off her promise ring from Johnny J, which is by no means an engagement ring, even though I secretly think she wanted it to be. We finally see Jen on the screen as she hosts her parents and helps her kids adjust to their new home, aka Ryan’s home because she was evicted.

After what can only be considered the best fourth wall break to date, Shannon is left to sip her cocktail as Alexis storms back inside in a literal huff. Heather, the hostess with the mostess, is dead set on not having drama at her event. She tries to calm Alexis down and directs her to the craft table in the corner. Shannon seems relatively calm, but 30 seconds in, viewers have already learned that she and Tamra are not okay. I dare say that they aren’t on the best of terms. In a quick juxtaposition, producers cut to Tammy Sue, revealing that she felt bad for Shannon, who had to come face to face with John’s new girlfriend.
Texts flashed onto the screen, showing Tamra reaching out to her former friend after pictures of Alexis and John had been released. Tamra sent a nice text noting, “I know things aren’t good between us. But I wanted you to know that I’m thinking about you. I know how hurtful this must be for you, and I’m sorry.” Yet, all Shannon could slap together was a generic response that ended with “Happy Holidays.” I’m pretty sure Shannon did not want Tamra to have a happy holiday season.
Cameras spun back to Shannon in her confessional, sharing that she was annoyed that Tamra liked the photos of John and Alexis. But what got her goat was that the former CUT Fitness owner added applause emojis to the comment. Not the dreaded applause emojis! In response, Shannon texted, “WTF? What are you doing? “You would never see me post applause emojis.” According to the text, Tamra’s response back was to “Grow the f*ck up.”
The ring didn’t mean a thing

At every one of Heather’s parties, there is always a game to play. This kitsch fanfare paid homage to the money booth, but instead of Benjamins flying all around, it was pre-written questions. Heather was asked what her favorite piece of jewelry was and why. To which she answered her original engagement ring. Cute right? Cameras then focused on Alexis’ rather large promise ring. The band sat comfortably on her ring finger, but she insisted it was not an engagement ring. Instead, it was a “Sign of love.”
Emily began to poke at the hashtag she used with the word “promised,” asking what we all wanted to know. But Alexis was quick to steer the word’s definition toward a religious connotation, noting it could mean “Promised in the eyes of the Lord.” The new girl, Katie, almost choked on her amuse-bouche, asking if she was really that religious. Oh, you have no idea, Katie. “There’s no difference between a promise ring and a promised ring. It’s just a D. I guess that’s what she’s getting.” I am going to like her.

Understandably, Shannon excuses herself from the table, and to her surprise, Tamra follows her. But instead of finding comfort, Shannon and Tamra start hurling insults at one another. Tammy Sue is tired of Shannon talking behind her back, especially regarding her “big ego.” But the Real for Real founder denies she has said such things. Shannon tried to extend an olive branch, but Tamra shut her down in the hotel hallway, saying, “No. You’re not a good person. You’ve done horrible things to me.”
Don’t come for Gina’s livelihood

Gina is new to real estate. But she did Jen a solid when she vouched for her, claiming the mother of five didn’t need a credit check. Umm, the yogi definitely should have had a credit check since she is now being evicted. Naturally, Gina feels dumb and used. Not a great combination. However, fans are starting to get a glimpse of who the real Ryan is.
While explaining her current living situation to Katie and Shannon, Jen noted, “I feel like he just sits around and plays in the sunshine.” As most viewers know, Ryan was recently linked to the MLB $16 million gambling and theft scheme. So basically, everything between Ryan and Jen feels fishy.
In a Road House/Coffee House meet-up, Gina literally could not hide her Long Island attitude. Jen wasn’t willing to see how her inability to pay rent hurt Gina. And that was a problem. Directly before throwing her buttery croissant and walking out, Gina snapped, shrieking, “You need to grow up. You need to figure out how to take care of yourself and your children. It’s not your ex-husband’s responsibility. And it’s not your boyfriend’s responsibility.”
If Gina didn’t know Jen was dumb before, she does now after she responded with, “Just cause my life is falling apart doesn’t mean my hair needs to fall apart like yours did.” And there you have it—the logic of a 16-year-old 46-year-old.

The countdown is on for the Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 finale. Honestly, the countdown has been on since the premiere, but we’re getting close to seeing the heavily teased “Last Supper.” Allegedly, it was so explosive that it caused the reunion to get canceled. Danielle Cabral was right in the center of the chaos, and she just teased that the final sitdown with the full cast was just as dramatic as the rumors suggest.

A RHONJ Season 14 preview teased a chaotic showdown between the warring factions of women. Of course, like all good things on this show, it all went down at Rails Steakhouse. The clip showed Dolores Catania sitting at a destroyed dinner table looking beyond frustrated.
Ever since we got a taste of the Season 14 finale, we’ve been following all of the reports about what allegedly went down. Some rumors suggested that Danielle and Jennifer Aydin got into another physical confrontation, with drinkware flying, once again. In an interview with E! News, Danielle confirmed that most of the rumors were true.
“I couldn’t tell you what you’re going to see, but I lived it, and it was quite a show,” Danielle teased. “Quite an episode, I’ll say that much. Everything you’re hearing is a pretty good depiction of what takes place.”
In addition to the showdown between Danielle and Jennifer, there’s also apparently a spat between Teresa Giudice and Margaret Josephs. We’ll have to tune into the finale to see exactly how it unfolds, but Margaret has predicted that she’ll be “vindicated” once fans see the episode. Time will tell.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 continues on Bravo, Sunday nights at 8/7c.
