Sonja Morgan Says Her Life is Fabulous

August 23, 2015 by tamaratattles 40 Comments

RHONY Sonja Shitfaced

Here is what Sonja says in her RHONY blog this week.

Sue me if I know how to have a good time! I’ve partied with the best of them, and those days I spoke of with Dorinda in the privacy of our hotel suite just don’t exist anymore.

Correct, they do not exist anymore.  You seem to have really embellished them and glorified them.  I get it. It was the 80s, everyone was partying and having fun.  But it’s 2015 now and it’s time to live in the present.  You need to figure how you are going to pay for that shiny new $3.3 million dollar mortgage on the townhouse you had to take out to pay off the bankruptcy mess. You know longer have homes in France or Colorado and if you lose your RHONY gig you are in a world of hurt. Rumor has it that the bankruptcy could not be closed out until you got your Bravo check to sign over.  How are you going to afford your magical priestesses and acupuncturists and facialists and veterinarian dental work if you are not on RHONY?

After I apologized to Carole I could tell she is still very sensitive about her family. This is why I usually steer clear of the subject around her. I have mentioned to her before that I knew some of her in-laws and some of her friends as people do when connecting. I would never want to offend her.

Offending people is pretty much the whole point of a reunion.

None of us are perfect, especially in this group of characters! My business is building solidly, my family is thriving, and thank the Lord for my health.

What business is that?  Forgive me if I am a bit confused as to what business you are currently working on that is going so well. You are selling overpriced dresses on spec. That’s not going to pay the light bill.

I’m sad to see when the girls are looking for problems to exploit, and some of the girls could be more truthful. Whether the girls like it or not, I live a fabulous life! They act as if my life started and ended with my ex. I’ve lived a lifetime before I married. I cherish every memory and love to share them, especially with my team. I love to inspire people.

This is delusional. Your fabulous live did begin and end with your ex.  Before your marriage lotto number hit, you were a hostess at a restaurant. After the marriage you were left with SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS OF DEBT to clear up. Had you ex not tossed you the Colorado home in the final stretch to meet the balance, you’d be homeless right now. That is not a fabulous life.
I am out of my lawsuit and in a really good place.

You’re saddle with a $3.3 million dollar mortgage and living on income that is very unstable and could be gone at any moment. That’s not a really good place. Every other woman on those couches is in a much better place than you are.

I can’t believe that Heather was so harsh with me after a simple misunderstanding. I needed to take care of my kid and sister. No one was freezing, they didn’t want to come up for a cup of joe. They wanted to come up and bully me into leaving without Bethenny. I said I’d be down, I had a schedule to adhere to, made many plans at The Borgata. And of course I was packed.

There is really nothing to justify keeping a group of your “friends” as you call them in the vestibule or worse outside during a NYC winter.  Why would they bully you about Bethenny? They didn’t even know she was running late yet! And the cameras sure did show you still packing while the other women were exiled. You just need to admit you fucked up on this one.

There WAS a truce at that lunch to take Bethenny down. They were threatened by her return to the group. And… I was told they were plotting against me, too, at said lunch. A very competitive group. I can’t focus on others’ lawns and their brown spots. I just have to keep fertilizing and mowing mine.

Where on earth did you hear that analogy? You haven’t seen a lawn in decades. It’s pretty typical for the new girls to stick together.  It seemed they were more interested in coming after Luann than Bethenny. Well except for Kristen.

I wish that my friends could just be happy for me instead of judging my every movement.

Happy for what?  You should probably pay attention to the fact that they are all worried about you.

I do none of that with them. I do regret going to Atlantic City with them, but the women don’t need to crucify me. All I wanted was to treat my friends to a good time and celebrate Ramona’s birthday away from her divorce troubles.

Why do your regret going to Atlantic City? Because you got drunk? Did the women all do something mean to you in Atlantic City that I either didn’t see or have forgotten about?

I still have faith in these friendships and time will tell. I think some of the girls are unhappy themselves and project their anger on me and others just to stir the pot to be relevant. None of us are perfect, and once we vent, we always have a greeeeeat tiiiime. Be sure to tune in next week, because this reunion is only going to get better when they stop pointing their fingers at me and turn it on the others. Whew!

So it’s great TV as long as all the fingers are not pointed at you?  That makes sense.

Sidenote: Part Three of the reunion will be aired on Thursday night. This conflicts with the Big Brother Live Eviction, Project Runway, and Mistresses (I think it may be the finale of that).  So you may need to shuffle your DVR around. I’ll have to remember to watch Mistresses on Demand.

      I have to pity someone who is so delusional. She seems to live in on a planet far, far away. Her life must be very lonely because she lives inside her own head and the voices in there are rather dim-witted.

        I loved the 80’s! I was a teenager, not a care in the world (besides good grades, boys, clothes)
        The 50’s lifestyle seems sorta hot to me though. Yes, the man was HOH but he wanted his wife/partner happy. It was a power exchange that seemed to work. I am not stating that isn’t the case today, it’s just my case. Rich hot men don’t always make the best life partners. It’s only taken me 41 years to learn this.

        Right now is the good old days to paraphrase Carley Simon. I can look back to the 70’s and have fond memories, but living in the past and planning the what ifs for the future leaves a person in limbo.
        Do you think Sonja acts the way she does to try and attract her ex’s attention and make him regret divorcing her? She lives on a stage of her own devising and is the star of her own show to sort of paraphrase Shakespeare.

        80’s hair was the best! I had a “spiral perm” but my bangs were straight, then after burning up my hair so badly with brush-on highlighter, I decided to get a mullet. Good times.

    Does Sonja really believe what she writes or what she says? She keeps saying she was an international model. If she ever was, she’d have photos all over her website. I feel bad for her. She can’t stop living her glory days.

      There aren’t any glory days if she didn’t really live them. She was along for the ride on the rich Morgan Family train but nothing seems to have happened prior to that time or since.

    I know Sonya is delusional and firmly planted in Grey Gardens territory but I still like her a lot. She is like your favorite crazy aunt. She is funny and slutty and a sweetheart.

    I am shocked she paid off the creditors. Doesnt her old coot ex Mr. Moneybags still owe her $3 mil?? Will she have to collect when the old fart passes? No pun intended.

      The old dude is crying poverty at this point. I don’t know if she will have a claim on the estate or not but he has acknowledged he owes her $3 million, so probably she could if he has not sheltered it all to kids or trusts or hidden it somewhere.​

    Sonja has not got a mean bone in her body, but she also doesn’t have the business brain god gave a gnat. Sadly she is still living in the past and is yearning for her former station in society. I do love watching her when she isn’t being nutty, she has one of the biggest hearts i have seen on these shows. The friendship she has with Ramona has always stumped me, i do not see how Ramona has any friends as she is always such a nasty crack!

    Sonja is old enough to be self-medicating with alcohol because of low estrogen levels, like I think is at least part of Shannon Beador’s problem. Premarin doesn’t cause you to make fools of yourselves, ladies, & it is cheaper than cocktails. The rationalizations for the heavy drinking just don’t fly, & alcohol induced brain & liver problems are too serious to brush off–lip just won’t work on an enlarged liver.

    Sonja, from what I can see (and according to Bethenny, does not have a malicious bone in her body) she is simply a deluded, misguided and entitled person. She sees herself as a wealthy socialite who is living on Planet Fabulous. That’s where Countess Luanne used to live too. The reality is that Sonja is just a glamorous grifter. If her toaster line took off and she earned millions from sales or ‘celebrities like Madonna’ started to wear her fashions and bought into her ‘lifestyle brand’ or her comedy was suddenly in demand she would have some credibility but currently? Not so much. Her hair always looks nice though.

        If her ex publicly acknowledged owing her 3 million, that may have been enough for the bank to underwrite the new mortgage.

    I think at some point, Sonja Morgan may have partied in the same room with Madonna and JFK, Jr. I have no doubt she was name dropping to name drop and in that incredible moment of insight from Ramona, go back to her heydey… she needs to see Bethenny’s therapist. I think that the ladies have tolerated her stories FOREVER – as you said, no mean bone in her body, but she is clueless that she has been HURTFUL at times. As a history buff – who knows clearly that Carole is a princess – I also know that Carole was absolutely right that NO ONE who was friends or family with him called him “John John”. Jeezus… was I the only one who had a competent US History teacher and professor????

    Anyone know what age you had to be to go into Studio 54 if you were a non-celebrity? Sonja was 18 when the original owners sold – it closed 10 years later. The ‘hey day’ was gone, I think, by ’81 (when they sold it) Can’t confirm that though. I will say that I googled JFK Jr. and Studio 54 – and the only pics showed a big haired John. He was maybe 21 (couldn’t find a date on the pic) So there probably in the 81 era. Maybe again with Madonna when they dated (1988)

    Interesting tidbit in my Googling – Sonja and JFK Jr. are birthday twins – but 3 years apart (she’s younger. She was born in 1963)

      New York was 18 drinking age until 1985. So there were plenty of 18 year olds at Studio 54, since it was still legal then. Plus as long as you were cute, they would easily let a 16 year old slide in there. My very good friend was a wild child in NYC in the 80s (we are amazed she lived to tell about it).

      I can see a young, drunkish Sonja sidling up to JFK, Jr at a club and calling him “John-John” and thinking it was cute. And Carole didnt know John in his youth. I recall reading stories about his actress g/fs and misspent youth. I like Carole, but she needed to let that one go.

      So you’re saying that your US History teacher said, in class, that no one addressed JFK Jr. as John-John? Difficult to believe …
