It’s Time for More About Brooks Ayers Faking Cancer!

November 11, 2015 by tamaratattles 149 Comments

RHOOC Vicki Brooks Meghan Jim Cancer

Because we just can’t get enough about this story. I know this because I got a billion links to Brooks statement admitting he lied to E! News. So, let’s watch this one more time.

But first, here is his apology:

“Words cannot express the deep regret that I have in fabricating documents to ‘prove’ to the world that I, in fact, have cancer. What I did was wrong and inexcusable. I acted alone, without Vicki ‘s knowledge, to produce documents for a reality TV show in hopes of putting doubts about my cancer to rest. I never intended to disclose my actual medical records or details about my private and personal medical history, thus the rationalization of presenting documents that weren’t true simply for a ‘storyline’ for the show.”

“From this day forward, my own personal journey with this disease will remain private as I initially intended over a year ago. My sincerest apologies to my family, friends, loved ones, and those who are battling this horrid disease for any additional pain and/or stress that I have caused. As Rick Pitino once said, ‘Mistakes can be good. They are fertilizer. Everything I’ve learned about coaching [life], I’ve learned from making mistakes.’ I made a mistake yet I have learned a huge lesson as well.”

In addition, E! makes a pretty convincing argument that Vicki knew Brooks was not sick. (of course she did.)

  1. Throughout this recent season (and even before it aired), Vicki has spoken publicly about Brooks’ alleged battle with cancer. During the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion, Vicki said she was with Brooks at City of Hope while getting treatment, but she never saw him getting treatment. “I was only at City of Hope once,” she said during the reunion. “I only know what’s been told and what I’ve witnessed. Period,” she later said, confirming she went to City of Hope and spent four hours there while Brooks was getting treatment. “He was sitting there with the bag,” she said.

“Could it have been the blood donation that I saw?” Briana Culberson, Vicki’s daughter, said.

2. And then there was the whole IV story, which Vicki actually admitted to fabricating.

“I fabricated [the story], because I really was looking for compassion from somebody,” she said during the reunion. She also took to her blog to address what happened. “After Brooks’ first treatment in October, he was extremely sick and dehydrated. I talked with one of my friends who said he should get an IV with fluids to hydrate him and she had a doctor friend that she was going to call for me,” she wrote. “I told her not to do that, as I was going to call Briana to get her opinion if she thought Terry Dubrow would know of someone that could come to the house. I told Briana when I hung up with her and I was going to call Terry to ask him. When I asked Brooks if it was okay to call Terry, he said ‘no and that he would call his own doctor in the morning.’ I failed to tell Briana that I didn’t call Terry and she assumed I did.”

RHOOC-vicki-gunvalson crying

  1. Throughout the summer while Bravo aired the series, Vicki spoke about scans and Brooks’ progress. “We are hopeful, promising on his health. He had a recent scan last week,” she told Extra in July. “The lesions are decreasing and his blood work is coming back better, so everything we’re doing is working.” As for the other women questioning Brooks’ sickness, Vicki told Extra, “It’s so filthy, that I thought, if this is what you girls need for a story line, I’m out. I’m out because no way could anybody fake what he’s been going through, unless the doctors are in on it too, ’cause I go to the doctor visits and they’re reading his scans.”
  2. In October 2014, Vicki tweeted that Brooks was starting his first round of “chemo infusion.” On the same day Brooks tweeted a photo of him (since deleted) saying he was getting chemotherapy. Briana, Vicki’s daughter, said it was blood work. In December 2014, Vicki posted about Brooks’ treatment again, but has since deleted that Instagram too. “Feels good to get Brooks up and out and enjoying the holiday season. Round 2 chemo behind us,” she said in a tweet.

BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!

These tweets came before Bravo started filming. When the couple announced their breakup, they said filming took place between January and May in 2015.

  1. In her blogs, Vicki wrote about how cameras didn’t show Brooks struggling with the treatment.

“What you don’t see are the struggles Brooks has gone through by making the decision to reveal this season that he even has cancer. He did NOT want to, and I told him it was a way for us to show how we can inspire others who have cancer and how couples can ban together during this time. I had no idea it was going to be the focus this season,” she wrote. “What you don’t see is the new treatment he is doing is actually working. His blood levels are improving and he is feeling better. What you didn’t see are the numerous doctor visits and scans that Brooks has done, it has become a big part of his life to beat this cancer and it’s working. What you don’t see are the night sweats, the high fevers, and the vomiting after his chemo treatments. What you don’t see is how sick he was earlier this year from doing chemo.”

GOD IS ON MY SIDE!
GOD IS ON MY SIDE!
  1. During the reunion, Tamra Judge shared a story from season nine of the reality series where she and Vicki were in Hawaii with Heather Dubrow. Brooks said he had been diagnosed with cancer and they had been going to City of Hope for tests. He then refused to answer whether or not he had cancer until she landed and was in the car on the way home. He didn’t. “I feel like he throws that cancer card out to get sympathy,” Tamra said.

“I do,” Vicki said when asked if she thinks he really has cancer this time. “I don’t have any proof that he doesn’t have cancer and he won’t give me enough proof that he does have cancer. It’s so disgusting, this whole thing.” By the end of the reunion, Vicki said, “My gut says he doesn’t have it.”

  1. Brooks told Andy Cohen his battle with cancer, this time around, had been ongoing for 11 months. Throughout their time on the show, Vicki was promoting Club Detox OC and the company’s juices and remedies with raw juices and antioxidants. “This is not the only thing that Brooks is doing, however his primary focus is boosting his immune system,” she wrote. “Without having a strong immune system, the body will continue to break down. He is also being overseen by his oncologists and is finally seeing positive results on his recent scan which is very encouraging. Lenka the owner of Clubdetoxoc has a membership program available where you can join and receive more information on how to get your body healthy through plant based food.” She posted links in her blogs and on social media encouraging others to sign up, including one in October 2015 that says a recipe can “help prevent breast cancer.” Vicki also used Brooks’ battle to encourage others to sign up for insurance with her company.

REALLY? YOU WANT MORE BROOKS LINKS? FINE CLICK HERE.

Also, here is the deleted Facebook tweet that idiots think she is saying that juicing cures cancer. What she says is that it is important to stay healthy and build up a good immune system and not make your body a good host for cancer. Something doctors have been saying for years.  Do I think Vicki knew Brooks did not have cancer? Of course she did.  But did she say juice cures cancer? No. She did not.

Vicki’s deleted FB entry

Help prevent breast cancer with today’s recipe. Today’s meal is rich in phytonutrients, antioxidants such as lycopene, vitamin C, beta-carotene, manganese and good amount of vitamin E to help prevent and fight against breast cancer due to its strong anti-inflammatory and immunity boosting properties.

Note: This post is about food, healing and providing a free health advice. None of the involved parties here support negative energy nor unsupportive actions. Anyone using this as a platform for negative comments will be not only deleted but permanently removed from Vicki’s fan list. Thank you and have a blessed day!

“This year for me has been filled so many people I know either dying or getting diagnosed with cancer or some other type of disease. Please everyone, if you care about your loved ones, make sure you have the proper amount of Life Insurance Coverage on them. It makes the world of difference to those you leave behind. There is 100% chance we will all die someday, buying life insurance will ease the financial stress that will be placed on the family when you are no longer there to provide for them.

And finally, Vicki continues to deny. She gave the following statement to US Weekly today.

“I’m completely shocked. I’ve seen the bills, I went to City of Hope. He was there all morning so how do you think anything other than he’s getting chemo? You go to City of Hope because you have cancer, not because you have nothing else to do during the day.

“I’m guilty of loving him and believing him. Who hasn’t believed someone that you loved? And why would you lie about cancer when I’ve had three friends die of it in the last two years? I had my dearest friend just die of stomach cancer.”

“My life is so abundant, I didn’t need to make a fake storyline, and I sure as hell wouldn’t make it up about Brooks. As God is my witness, I would never want to make something up like this; it’s actually quite sick. I’m embarrassed. I want to tell the girls I’m sorry.”

And finally, her thoughts on Brooks, “I hate him, I hate him with everything in me, and I don’t hate people, but I believed him, I trusted him, I defended him, took a bullet for him when people didn’t like him.”

And there you have it.

    Funny. He doesn’t say he doesn’t have cancer. In fact, he strongly implies he does. The fabrications are because he didn’t want to show HIS documents? Oh jeez. what next?

      That was my first observation…he only fabricated docs so as not disclose his own ‘personal’ information. Pfft. So how does he explain fabricating treatment at a facility he never went to other than he said City of Hope once and now he’s compelled to back that nonsense up. Would love to see Hoag/Newport Imaging make a statement as well given the docs he said were from them look nothing like what they issue

      Yeah, I’m confused. Has he admitted he doesn’t/didn’t have cancer or is it just about faking the documents? It’s pretty clear he lied about all of it but I’m confused what he’s actually copping to.

        He appears to only be copping to “fabricating” (actually it’s forgery Brooks!) the documents. I would love to know what name was on the bottom of the letter he presented to E as being from his City of Hope oncologist! That oncologist should sue him.

      That was the most definitive and conflicting part of Brooks so called apology. His claim that he produced false documents in order to prove that he in fact does have cancer. And he did this because he didn’t want to produce his actual documents. That’s fucked up. So, he produced fake documents about his personal bout with cancer which he still doesn’t say that he didn’t have. He is a sociopath. This whole statement he made is so confusing and makes it sound like he indeed is lying again about his cancer. What a low life.

    If he didn’t want anyone to know details… why tell Bravo in the first place?

    But forget him. He’s filth.

    Now my questions center around Vicki and if she will be on the show. I don’t think she wants to stay away (and I personally think she made up with Jeana to make sure she had at least a FOH on her side next year.)

    But Vicki has NEVER done well when caught making a mistake or confronted with someone standing up for themselves when she has hurt their feelings, or passed judgment on them (with or without the hypocrisy – I wonder if she ever made Gretchen a casserole when Jeff was dying)

    Again, her story about how the story about Terry and the I.V. got spread doesn’t ring true. Why would someone else state that it happened as fact and not “Vicki said he was so bad that she was going to call Terry for help”

        Erica, at this point Vicki just needs to admit she lied about everything regarding Brooks and his cancer. She has to stop with this lying to cover her other lies, the cycle will never end this way. It’s going to be hard to have any respect for her but perhaps if she comes clean and shows true remorse there may just be some hope for her.
        It will be interesting to see if she does come back and if the others will film with her. I felt like this franchise was over because of this scandal but actually people probably will be curious to see how everyone has dealt with this and would tune in to see.

      Interesting about Jeanna as it was she who stated either on WWHL or here on Tamara’s blog that she “witnessed” Brooks leaving his house every morning to go to chemo. Did Vicki tell Jeana to say that in her support. At any rate, while I have never had chemo, I did have radiation after a diagnosis of stage 1 colon cancer. The radiation treatments were spread out over a space of time and weren’t that bad. Chemo is very debilitating and very toxic and one can’t receive chemo on a daily basis for three months.I say that both of them are lying. Vicki and Brooks are both lying and Tamara laid out the timeline well. The fact that Vicki’s posts appeared before filming indicates that for some unclear reason, they both wanted to go with this storyline and evoke sympathy for Brooks and for Vicki as his caretaker. My only question is did Andy actually know about this all along because if he did, he is just as crazy and evil as Brooks and Vicki.

        Stage one? Glad you found it at that stage and hope you are well now. I didn’t even catch her saying he left the house everyday for chemo. It’s been 20 years since my grandmother lived with us and did chemo, but you are absolutely right. There there’s no way in hell you could put that in your body every day. I don’t think Andy or Bravo knew that he was faking. I think the interview would have been done differently, and I think the storyline would have played out slightly differently. I also think it would have been done in a smoother way! Vicki and Brooks we’re too damn confusing and I think that if the Bravo people knew, the storylines would have been kept straighter! Goodness Andy enjoys the drama and shade, but I don’t think they are involved. By the way, the drama comment isn’t meant to be shade I watch every single housewives so clearly I enjoy it too! I am NOT going to be a hypocrite by calling Andy evil, while also contributing to their ratings by watching and the water cooler talk by reading this and other blogs.

          @Erica Yes, doing fine and thanks for asking. It was a complete surprise. I actually didn’t get a colonoscopy until age 55 which was already five years later than they suggest. My GYN who delivered my second son died of Stage 4 colon cancer just weeks before I scheduled my appointment. He was with his son and was in a minor car accident and when the medics arrived, they encouraged him, along with his son to go get checked at the hospital for precautionary measures. He didn’t want to go, but ultimately did. They ran several tests including routine blood tests.Something showed up and ultimately, he was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer within days. He was under 50, no family history. Scared the hell out of me and I loved him. He wasn’t pretentious, ran a solo practice, adored his family, and was a wonderful man. I am not conscientious about my health, but something told me to see my gastro doc and schedule the colonoscopy. My dr said that the polyps grow fairly slowly, but mine was pretty large already. No symptoms, nothing. I feel pretty sure that my lousy diet during the prior ten years contributed to the polyps. I have a colonoscopy every 6 months now and I hate the prep, but it beats dying from cancer. So notice to all, if you have a family history, go before the age of 40 and if not, make sure to get a colonoscopy by age 50.

          I have to concur with you that the E interview would have been conducted differently if Bravo/Andy knew. That makes a lot of sense. I too would be a hypocrite if I called Andy evil as I am a compulsive Bravo viewer. I do enjoy the shows and it’s easy viewing. Nice to watch other dysfunctional families besides my own!!

      I see a pattern here…Bravo seems to thrive on storylines involving criminals or people who are sleazy and have no problem breaking the law and lying. I fault Brooks for his lies and Vicki for her utter stupidity and I also fault Bravo for being so low that they exploit these liars and con artists. I think that the entire network should be investigated for being complicit in the many scams perpetrated on their audiences by so many of their “stars”. I also fault Andy Cohen for his part in this mess as he and Bravo had to know what was going on. I don’t think that Vicki will be fired because she brings so much drama and that’s all that Bravo cares about. It doesn’t seem to matter that the drama includes falsifying documents, defaming people and committing illegal acts. If not for a few good shows on that network I would not watch Bravo at all. Thanks for keeping us all up to date on the adventures of Brooks the Crook and his mistress and for showing us plainly what Bravo is really all about. Your blogs are far more interesting than the actual shows in question.

        Bravo used to be a dying network with wonderful programming. Now it’s a thriving and very profitable network with shitty programming. I can’t deny that I watch most of the HW shows, and I have to assume that sadly or regrettably that most viewers aren’t all that interested in informative or intellectual programming. Scripted TV shows have declined. I know it’s been said often, but I think that many people, myself included, enjoy watching a train wreck. You know you shouldn’t, but you can’t turn your eyes away from the craziness and drama in front of you.

You f-ing went on national TV (E!) talking about your personal illness so apparently you don’t care about privacy Brooks. Did you get paid for your interviews with E!?

    There have been numerous inconsistencies in her/his stories. She keeps flip flopping around with her answers. I, like TT, believed them. I just couldn’t fathom someone doing that and on television. He still says he has cancer just the reports are fake. There is no doubt in my mind that he is a very sick man that has cancer of the soul. Only a total hot mess would do something like this. I really believe she (Vicki) knew and never in her wildest dreams expected it to get so out of control. She did try to shut it down wanting them to stop talking about it because it was over the top now. They both benefited financially from this story line (through Bravo’s pay) and therefore committed fraud. At the least it is time for OG from the OC to POOF BEGONE.

        This is an interesting post. I guess I see it another way. You can have compassion for a particular person, that doesn’t make you compassionate. This was a terrible ordeal and only David Brooks Ayers will have to pay to whatever higher he believes. Vickie I am sure wanted people to feel badly for this man, and give him the compassion everyone gave to Donn when Donn had cancer. Now all anyone can feel badly for is her desperation.

She gonna play the “Brooks lied to me and I hate him” card, searching even further for sympathy from her fellow ghouls on the show. And, yes, I do believe she’ll be asked back. Andy loves shit like this. Just look at Phaedra and Teresa.

      Im not so sure Vickie is really done with Brooks. I think she may be hopelessly addicted to him. I base this on all the break ups and that he dumped her, so will she be able to refuse him if he tries to come back? Breanna has her doubts. Also, Vickie still talks to him, which is a huge mistake, when there’s a broken heart that needs healing and someone was played. Youre in danger of being played more. And lastly, Ive read that worst case scenario of a relationship with a sociopath is, being hopelessly addicted to the sociopath for the rest of your life. Ugh thats really scary.

    I think this whole scam was cooked up to promote club Detox whose founder, Lenka, said she had borderline cancer and a variety of other ailments, and cured herself by detoxing. I also think Andy was complicit with this deception. I think Brooks was supposed to get a miracle cure. Bravo sunk very low this season.

      There is no such thing as borderline. There are pre-cancerous cells for various things (like colon and esophageal cancers), but no one calls those pre-cancerous and you don’t cure them by juicing. Vicki claimed several times that the juicing was starving the cancer. Those aren’t the words “cure cancer” but I certainly inferred from that statement that she was saying it cured cancer. What else does it mean to starve cancer, which isn’t even a thing.

        Of course there is no such thing as borderline cancer. But Lenka on the club detox website claims she had it and juicing cured italong with her fibromyalgia and chronic sinusitis. Too bad it can’t cure the RHOC personality disorders and sociopathic liars.

      I think Brooks and Vicki’s plan was to hawk Club Detox throughout the season and say it was a combination of things that led to his cancer’s remission. Then, once people started looking hard into his “cancer”, they backed off and tried to steer the convo away– but the damage was done. Like TT said, it’s obvi Vicki knew. It’s pretty disgusting.

    Well, I guess I’m not surprised Brook’s faked documents, yet he claims to have cancer. I actually think that may be true because he does not look well. Why he did this is unclear. I have not heard a whisper of fraud and if was for attention…well he already had that. People are nuts.

    I confess I have never liked this person; he comes across as slimy. However, Vicky liked him; the heart wants what the heart wants I guess. Personally I think he romanced her and she really wanted/needed that. I like her, she’s smart, she made her own way and raised her children. She also clearly loves her family. She’s definitely high maintenance and I personally would have a hard time dealing with a friend like that, but I really admire how much she has done for herself professionally. I also admire what she has done for her children…she put them through school…her son through college and her daughter is a RN. For me, I like her the most because she did do so much on her own. That is interesting to me, not some bitchy woman going through her third divorce or some rich wife bragging about her new horror of a mansion with fourteen bathrooms (I like to think of myself as a good capitalist, but really?). Vicky’s kids are adults and safe from any scumbag she may date and I think it is highly unlikely that she would allow any person to steal any of her money so as much as I thought she deserved better than this man, that’s life.

      Brooks is not a smooth talker. If he were a smooth talker, the others in the cast would find him believable. Instead only Vicki believed Brooks and she was in on it. What started with her love tank being filled turned out to be a business venture. Vicki saw dollar signs.

      Another bad business decision by Vicki. I wouldn’t buy anything from Vicki including insurance. Vicki chose ‘girth’ over family and basic sensibility. Further, Vicki is a poor liar.

      Finally, Brooks is well. No cancer. He himself said his lesions are gone and blood work improving. He can’t say he’s in remission until the numbers ‘normalize’. Oh please….go away Brook. Enough.

He admits only to falsifying documents only to protect his privacy, like anyone is entitled to do. He apologizes for anyone that may have been hurt. Then he tries to turn it into a do gooder deed because it was learning from a mistake. The whole things reads like a denial of any wrong doing. Vicki is more less doing the same.

      I don’t get how FORGING medical documents is protecting his privacy and why anyone would be ‘entitled’ to do that? Forgery is forgery regardless of motive. He forged a letter from an oncologist. If he really had chemo then a simple black pen on his own chemo bill to remove any information he didn’t want made public would have been sufficient if that was the case instead of having to google a bill and cut and paste someone else’s bill.

I sort of felt bad for Vickie in this whole mess, mostly because her mother passing and I thought she should get a little grace for that. Brooks has been slimy for years, the whole child support bullshit, the other cancer thing, the manipulative way he says and does shit. I feel like Vickie didn’t know at first that it was a lie, I think she eventually figured it out but was too far in to back out. Meghan was a trip, I was stunned she went so far to prove it was all a sham but in the end she was right. I still think Tamra is a cunt!

Both Vicky and Brooks are fecal matter that I would love to flush to some sewage system where they would be obliterated. Every time they open their mouth and speak it adds insult to injury. She is just as skeevy as Brooks. This whole charade was a long-term plan and it is a win-win for Bevis and Butthead either way.

    OK – Serious question: how much did production know? I assume that, like most reality shows, the people involved are vetted in some capacity. On competition shows, this includes medical and psychological tests – granted, they are not perfect and very fluid in their definition of “healthy” and “sane,” but still, for legal and insurance reasons, you’d think Evolution Media would somehow vet this, especially since it was known to be storyline and wasn’t a surprise. The only out I can see is if the production contract was solely with Vicki and she would “assume responsibility” for anyone brought into filming due to her storyline.
    Hideous people.
    I wish that, in real life, we could apply the Shame Ritual from Game of Thrones, and make all the people involved walk naked through the center of town while we rang bells and chanted “Shame!” whilst spitting on them.

      Bravo has no contract with Brooks. Just a release to film. He is not paid by Bravo, it is up to Vicki to give him a cut or not,

      Production did not manufacture the storyline. But once they tried to take Brooks to the Dr and film his appointments it obviously became clear to them. Thus they used the cuntrag, Meghan to out the story.

      From a production standpoint, once they start shooting and realize the dude is faking, that was really their best option.

        It was clear during the season’s shows that Brooks was lying- he never saw a real doctor, we never saw him filmed in a hospital, etc., etc.

        To me, one of 50 pieces of proof- but the one that threw it completely over the top, to me, occurred during the show the Club Detox woman was on- when she was present as he and Vicki met with the “doc” who was giving him some “infusion’ – I think they said of his blood returned to him with oxygen in it- the “doc” said something like, “if this report is correct, and not a forgery, then….”.
        Why would any legitimate doctor he was meeting for the first time, and being treated by for the first time, raise that question unless it was clearly a likelihood, or serious concern? And if it was a concern, no legitimate medical doctor would treat anyone without having clarity abut their diagnosis.

        There were far too many of these moments, and they spent a great deal of time, between Brooks and Vicki and production, in planning these sessions, for “forgeries” to be raised unless it was a likelihood or true, with production putting that phrase into his mouth to cover themselves.

All they want is time because time heals. Their love and desire for that time blinds them to deception and they become prey.

And whatever the disease…I’m wagering Hep C….he and Vick were going to capitalize on it from the beginning also. Not just for sympathy and Club Detox, but also the “ristrine” or whatever the shots were supposed to be? It’s all about the money for Vicki – and I also wager that she has paid him handsomely for the statement that she wasn’t in on it. I generally agree with Brianna, but her alliance with Tamra makes me squirm at times – but also think watching your Mom be Girth-Dickmatized has made her squirm too.

      WOW! Tess, I have been thinking the same thing. When he started changing his stages I wondered about Hep C

        I also thought Hep C but figured I had just seen the commercials one too many times. That would be enough to worry Vicki in my book. Brooks had dark circles under his eyes all season and had obviously lost lots of weight. This was just nasty business and I believe the blame is on Bravo.The other thing is this was very disrespectful to every family that is living with a real cancer diagnosis.

    I know I’m the ONLY one on Tamra’s side but IMO Vicki and Brooks made her out to be a villain, the trap was set last season with Vicki in tears on a beach saying Tamra was talking poorly about Brooks, boo hoo, warning others. Tamra has legit issues and she’s owned them. She’s not a great mom but she loves her kids, you do what you know or are taught. Vicki can’t redeem her lies. She’s a hypocrite and it’s her trigger word, clearly touched a nerve. We get it these shows are scripted loosely but making up or being complicit in a lie of this magnitude??? Come on, not cool. Did Andy know? Probably. He let them both hang themselves.

      I thought Brooks looked bad at that party at Shannons house. I wasnt sure if the weight loss was aging him or what. He also had some kind of discoloration on his cheeks. My husband noticed it too. Maybe just rosacia. He must not have what he says he has obviously, but may have something disease wise from his lifestyle.. The rant by Travis is the way alot of men think to me, but dont allways come out and say.Its the declaration of its a mans world, this is the way it is ,wer’e on top. I dont trust most men. I find them predatory and willing to say anything to get you to take your panties off.

    Good evening all. I have a couple of questions to ask anyone who can answer. The hospital, City of Hope, is it just a cancer center or is everything treated? Could he have been going there for something else? The statement released by the hospital says specifically they have never treated him for cancer, not that they have never treated him. Has anyone else picked up on the amount of alcohol both he and Vicki down? Is it possible he is being treated for an alcohol related illness, maybe like liver damage? Thanks.

      Maybe they have a world reknown maternity ward.

      Perhaps Brooks is pregnant.

      Maybe Andy is the father.

      Immaculate deception.

    Vicki and Brooks always intended this to be public – they gave an interview to US mag. in November 2014 to say she was moving him in so that he would not be alone after chemo (but then she claims she was away for two of three sessions?!!). She also gave an interview in December 2014 to US saying that Bravo told her they would reduce her role if Brooks didn’t film – they knew damn well that his cancer was going to be her storyline and they willingly signed up for it. She set the stage with the first US interview and there was absolutely nothing private about it long before filming began in January. She claims she started to doubt him towards end of filming but yet she was still endorsing Club Detox and specifically mentioning it working for Brooks’ cancer in July. Vicki is just as big a POS as Brooks.

        And she should. She is a dirty ass crack scumbag. There is that saying about not doing a crime…so I don’t want to hear the boo-hooing I expect will eventually be the end product of all of this crap. Had they never been outed they would be laughing behind the backs of everyone.
        Vicky deserves every bit of shame, ridicule, malicious belittling that comes her way. Neither Brooks nor Vicky could give a shit about the negative ramifications of their actions. If they had any compassion for those touched by cancer they would have never gone down the path of the cancer con. Never.
        Actually they are sick, twisted motherfuckers.

    The only reason I can think of for a forced apology would be the threat of someone suing. Perhaps City of Hope sent some kind of cease and desist with a demand for a public statement?

    It’s clearly not out of regret, but threat that this apology/statement was issued.

    But I tend to wonder if he doesn’t have some disease that he doesn’t want to share. Maybe something with more of a stigma.

    I think that in light of his confession that the “E” network should sue him for the money they paid him for his interview. He shouldn’t be allowed to collect money for his disgusting lie and fake documents. He could have blacked out any personal information that he didn’t want shown so I’m not buying it that he was protecting his privacy. MORE LIES. Stop giving this man money for his story and let him go find his next sugar mama!

    Bottom line, I don’t blame Vicki for wanting to believe someone she had put so much energy into defending. At the end of the day, their relationship is over, his fraud has been uncovered and she can move on with her life out of range of cameras. Considering the fact that Vicki was dealing with the very sudden death of her mother I would hope that folks would at least try to understand that she didn’t want to know about Brooke’s deciet and simply chose to stick to what she knew and let things play out. They did. It’s done. Move on.

    What if Vicki thought he had cancer, but really, he has HIV and finally told her when they broke up. That’s why she was so hopped up on Xanax and couldn’t really share the info? Nah, they’re just assholes. I can’t believe anyone would fake cancer. I gave these scumbags the benefit of the doubt because I was like WHY and how can anyone fake cancer? Mind… blown. Burn that franchise to the ground. Not one of those creatures on that show is worth a dollop of shit.

    Like I think you may have stated TT, e!/Bravo/the massive head that houses a wonky eyeball are going to milk this dry…..they already have. There’s truly chalky dust shooting out at this point.
    Since E is owned by the same network- they’re going to shove this non issue down everyone’s’s throat. I mean, congrats to them, Brooks/bravo storyline is now a newsworthy mention on non NBC owned affiliates.
    Who the [email protected]&& cares if this shithead faked his cancer on a Bravo show?!?
    Oh it’s so dispicable! So is the shitshow they deliver to us weekly. Why would anyone and /or the moral police be up in arms ? The pearl clutching…. “Oh this is the lowest, it’s cancer!”
    This disgusting and bottom of the barrel storyline ( to us all) managed to resurrect sagging and waning interest in these Housewives shows. The up in arms disgust with multiple claims that this is the last straw and no one will continue to watch, only propelled the viewer insulting show into normal/ non reality headlines.
    So, when you ask, why would anyone lie about cancer? Why would Bravo do this? There’s your answer. We all helped them to achieve their goal, once again, we’ve been sucked in. Even while we’re sneering at the fakery, we’ve driven the debate and promoted the shit show.

    I don’t think Vicki went along with the story for money, because of Club Detox. I think she is just so addicted to Brooks, she did whatever it took. Who knows at what point she found out. I think he used cancer to keep her in the relationship, at some point she found out it was a lie, but didn’t want to loose him. Do I hate her for it, no. Do, I pity her for it, yes. I think it’s sad she loved Brooks more than herself, that she needed him that much. Vicki needs to fill her own love tank & figure out why she is afraid to be alone with herself. I think partners who are “crazy” in love do some stupid things for the person they love.

      I think youre right about the addiction to him. Apparently, he pulled the cancer card again, when he was caught with a prostitute. Then she moved him in. The part about sticking to this relationship because of a fear of being alone, is partly true I think, but not entirely. She left a long term marriage to be with Brooks, and took a huge gamble on a really risky bet. She wouldnt even have to worry about being alone, if she hadnt made that choice. So if she ends up alone, its not something that just happened to her. She rolled the dice with Brooks, or that shed get together with someone else.

      Thank you. RHOC has never been about real life outside a few shots and then they share things in reunions. The first season was great and it started the whole franchise.. Since then if you really looking for anything outside silly..this is not the show. I love it yet it is the weakest of the franchise.

      The fact a whole season was around a MAN should tell you something..
