Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Recap: Lymes In The Sand

March 22, 2016 by tamaratattles 130 Comments

 

RHOBH Erika Table

 

Tonight, we have to suffer through Yolanda’s ridiculous Lifetime Achievement Award for Suffering In Silence On Her Journey To The Center Of The Lyme.  We start with Yolanda telling a makeup artist that she has not worn makeup in 11 months, no three years. Does she not know how ridiculous this sounds?  And Erika poses for random photos for her makeup artist on a table.

Later, Yolanda gets her award and Kyle cries and feels bad for doubting her.  It was a rather moving event.  But one has to member that there is a difference between Lyme Disease and CHRONIC Lyme Disease.  And have you noticed that Yolanda no longer refers to her illness as Chronic Lyme anymore, now it’s Neurological Lyme Disease.   I’d love to have compassion for Yolanda, but every day it’s something more illogical. Lately it has been “severe brain inflammation!”

Back in Beverly Hills, LVP explains that she had to bail on the Lyme Drama because she needed to fly to London to get her passport renewed. Which reminds me, I need to do the same. But not in London.  She also gives Max a brand new Jeep for all of his hard work at PUMP.

The ladies do their usual insane packing scenes with their husbands.  Or Gay Glam Squad. Much ado is being made about Dubai being in middle eastern country and they may all be locked up abroad. Ridiculous. Erika has a “look book” and is bringing her Gay Glam Squad without telling the other ladies. She is just going to fly them over separately. RHOBH Dubai
I totally forgot I was supposed to be recapping I was so mesmerized by what they were wearing, and how exactly they managed to be transported by cars on the jetway in Atlanta to avoid having to go in the airport. Eileen does love her a denim jumper circa 1973.

Yolanda and David are moving out of the house. But the big news is that the artichokes on the top shelf of the fridge are FAKE! What else in there is fake! My god. Is there no end to the lies?  Yolanda and David continue their lovey dovey act which is also FAKE.

Brandi comes to visit and asks how things are with David. She says that things have been a challenge. Yolanda says that Rinna is mad because she went to lunch with Kim and Brandi. Brandi said that Rinna’s wig glue is getting to her brain. Brandi insists that Rinna wears a wig.

In Dubai, Kyle and LVP get the biggest sweet in the house. It runs $40K per night. It looks like it is at least 7,000 sqft. I’ll try to pull the stats and plug them back in later.  Here you go , “The 924 square metre (about 10,000 sq feet!) Royal Bridge Suite is truly palatial. The private elevator, team of butlers and chefs, 3 sumptuous bedrooms with ensuites, a majalis, lounge and a 16 seat dining room make it the ultimate in exclusivity, privacy and pure luxury.”  The are staying at The Atlantis which is on “The Palm”  a group of manmade islands in the shape of a palm tree. It’s beyond gorgeous.  Every suite is better than the next. And Rinna is right, the fish tanks do seem more peaceful than scary. I was worried the underwater suite would not have windows.   The three story underwater suite is the smallest of the four suites at a mere 1,800 square feet. LVP has finally come to understand the allure of the muumuu. Lisa and Eileen both have bare shoulders.  See, THAT WAS THE ONE RULE. Gawd. Kyle gives all of the ladies kaftans.

In the suite the subject of Yolanda’s illness comes up. Nothing new is discussed. Same horse, fresh stick. Erika is not wearing a stitch of makeup for this scene. I have a feeling it is because her private glam squad was not available. LVP’s glam squad could not have done a more fabulous job. She looks amazing.

This was the best episode ever of RHOBH just because of the location. I was mesmerized. Next week they are going to yell at each other and make LVP cry.

        I was thinking the same thing. All it takes is for one person to go to the police and lodge a complaint and you are jailed until the offense is looked at and you are most likely found guilty.

        I don’t doubt that one bit. As PaganCick stated, all you need is one person to go to the police, a whistleblower of sorts who reaps some financial gain from disclosing this information.

        I recall Alan Turing, who is touted as the creator of the first computer. The police were tipped off and Turing was subjected to chemical castration. He ultimately hung himself in his 40s. While that was around the time of WWII, it isn’t all that long long ago in historical years.

        It is a tragedy that now in 2016 that there are still states that won’t acknowledge or allow same sex marriage or the laws that uphold the civil rights of the LGBT community.

      For the love of everything in this universe…Rinna mentioned that she’d heard people saying Yo had Munchies. She mentioned it to LVP and Kyle, felt bad and went directly to Yo to apologize. Why on earth is this still a topic? The horse has been beaten to death on this one.

      Brandi saying Rinna wears a wig was hysterical to me. Rinna says nasty things about Brandi and Kim, so the wig thing seemed like a minor dig back and really made me laugh.

      The hotel is lovely, but was this an infomercial for the hotel or RHOBH?

        For Atlantis who comped them FOUR SUITES plus rooms for production. The suite Kyle is in is 40K a night. They are there FIVE NIGHTS. You bet they are going to show every in of the hotel for that sort of comp.

        And I’m THRILLED they are. The hotel was the best part of the episode.

For a while I said I didn’t want to go to Dubai because I’ve been to Kuwait and Qatar but that place looked amazing. It is on my bucket list

    I’m glad that you found a solution and have gotten better. I think many of us don’t necessarily doubt that Yo has an illness. Our reservations may be more about the way she uses her health to manipulate and guilt people. Her Lyme Disease narrative is erratic and riddled with so many exaggerations and discrepancies, that it’s hard to believe in its entirety. Unlike many profoundly ill people, Yo publicizes her health “journey” extensively, with a heavy emphasis on her martyrdom.

      She probably was given a Lyme dx at some point-but she just took it and ran. Whatever is going on with her is not Lyme at this point. 2 foot parasites in the bum isnt Lyme. Lyme and implants-2 different things. I just wonder if she’s trying to perpetuate and drag out a Lyme dx since it did work in getting her attention. Lots of attention.

    I loved this episode (minus the rehashing of Yolanda’s illness) because it was what I tuned in to watch. Rich people doing rich people things! I would love to go to Dubai first class and stay in a fabulous suite on Bravos dime, but since that’s not going to happen I at least get to see them do it?

    Brandi has definitely had some eye work done and I think I might like it. I need a few more exposures to it to be sure.

    Yolanda gave me pause tonight, for some reason I had the idea that maybe she wanted to get out of the marriage and wanted to give David a reason to leave her, hence the illness and the Backstreet Boys haircut? Just something that briefly crossed my mind.

      Co-sign, Miguel. I missed a lot last night because I just don’t want to be involved in Yolanda’s fantasy any longer. Besides, I made it to the other side of menopause and she will too if she stops trying to change her body’s internal make-up.

  12. Minky says

    March 22, 2016 at 11:56 pm

    You’re right. She probably does have some health issue. Perhaps menopause or some other REAL disease that’s difficult to locate and identify.

    In your experience, you kept searching. Yolanda isn’t searching. She’s very firmly decided, with the help of her international quack squad, that she has lyme disease. And on top of all of that, even if Yolanda did want to change her mind and say she has a different disease, she can’t anymore. She’s in too deep and she’s got so much invested in this already.

    Look at all the awards she’s accepting. Look at her advocating work. She can’t back away quietly from any of that now.

      @Minky I’ve thought for a while now that she MUST have realized after having her implants out she felt a heck of a lot better…it’s quite obvious as she’s been LOOKING a heck of a lot better since. She has to know it was that (and probably menopause) and not “neurological lyme” but she’s in SO deep at this point. To admit wrong would be incredibly embarrassing to her.

      Totally Yoya. Those implants probably had a lot to do with it. The problem with them is that she changed her story there too. First they’ve been in ever since she got them, like a long time ago. Then, no, no, she did change them out, but still somehow some rogue, wayward silicone blob managed to wedge itself all up on her collarbone. What, Yolanda?! She needs to pick a story and stick with it.

        Perhaps, Yolanda will host another one with her as an honoree.

        Sidenote: Um about your nickname. My 80 lb dog Banjo is mean as a snake at times, as is his mama. When we walk around the block in the hood, we return through a narrow path behind the house that has fences on both sides. There is a rather large cat that the neighbors call Bighead. I’m pretty sure he is a stray and therefore may or may not be riddled with Ebola and the Laffa Virus. He refuses to budge as we approach barking and shouting. Sometimes I just turn around and walk all the way home the other way because of Bighead.

        I haven’t seen Bighead lately. And I am a bit nervous that you are now commenting on my blog. /eeeeek

    Well I’ve just come home from a two day stay at a hospital and it was the worst experience I’ve had in a while. I had been dealing wth a UTI and it took a while to get in touch with my doctor to get an appointment or an antibiotic. When I finally did, the UTI was full blown. Having CRPS, my immune system is already compromised. Being sick, not sleeping and being exhausted, I decided to take a sleeping pill I had recently been prescribed. Long story short, my son tries to wake me up and I’m incoherent. Ambulance takes me to the ER and they determine I have extremely low oxygenation in my blood and high heart enzymes that indicate a possible heart attack. I am also completely dehydrated. When I finally start to come back to reality I know none of this is what is wrong and what has happened is a bad reaction to the sleeping aid combined with a horrible UTI, being sick to begin with and the dehydration. After 49 tests, heart ultrasound, X-rays, you name it, the doctors finally agree with me that I didn’t have a heart attack and my oxygen level returned to a respectable 94 for someone with COPD and sent me home.

    Yolanda has picked a diagnosis that she knows is ambiguous and hard to prove. I believe she definitely has something going on with her but just like with me it isn’t what the original diagnosis is. My symptoms presented as a heart attack and me having to go on oxygen the rest of my life because of my COPD and that wasn’t it at all. I’m still weak as a kitten and actually fell last night on my non-existent ass bruising my tailbone and my pride.

    I did enjoy the beautiful scenes in Dubai. I liked the presidential suite but would have loved the underwater room the most.

      I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve been having a hard time. Anything that requires an ambulance ride is scary as hell. Very similar thing happened to my mother with Vicodin she was prescribed for a pinched nerve. The dope worked too well. And she ended up in an ambulance and the ER to get her heart rate back up to normal.

      Take it easy and don’t try to do too much too soon.

        @Miguel 😉

        I didnt know Rinna wore wigs? I mean, I never thought about it really-but her hair DOES look the same, ALWAYS, and it is a bit Raquel Welch-y, the ‘do. But I love Rinna. Am I misunderstanding? But Rinna just repeated the Munchausen story, didnt say it herself, I thought, so when Yolanda is telling Brandi (gack) that Rinna said she had Munchausen’s, that isnt exactly correct, right?

        Allison ~ No, Rinna never right out said that YoYo had Munchausen. That was just Yo twisting the truth, because that’s what she does. It’s convenient too, because if confronted, she could always blame her unreliable Lyme brain. Rinna was right, you can’t win with a ‘sick’ person.

    My mother had a chronic illness for the last 20 years of her life and looked great for all but the last year so I don’t really care about the looking sick aspect of Yolanda’s BS. But when someone is stating they’ve been in bed for several months and suffer from brain inflammation amoung her other symptoms, one would think they’re would be outward signs of physical distress. Theres no difficulty with her thought processes even as she insists she’s exhausted, we know we’ve seen her up, dressed and mobile as often as the other ladies in previous seasons, years in which she has insisted she couldn’t think, or get out of bed, no naturally people doubt her. When you couple that with the fact that she has admitted to receiving her diagnosis internationally snd received dubious treatments that clearly haven’t cured or even lessoned her symptoms according to her own narrative, there is ample reason for people to doubt her. There are lots of people with chronic illnesses of varying degrees who still find ways to go on living. That’s not Yolanda. She has set up a narrative that isn’t sustainable, and that is entirely her fault.

    Thanks for the recap…as always…TT! It helped me hit the highlights and FF where needed.

    I was on the fence about Yolanda but feeling more convinced lately menopause has got the best of her – along with divorce strategy. (Which I really don’t have a problem with, lol) The haircut cinched it…did the same thing one hormonal (or lack thereof) menopausal day. Whatever the case, it’s become tiresome.

She does have some chunky pieces , so it should be easy to spot. I’ll admit it, now I’m gonna be looking now . Uhg!

      Bella and Anwar probably looked surprised because not only was that the first time she told them, but also because she told them on camera. That was a low-down, dirty trick. She didn’t even give them a chance to decide whether or not they want to be a part of her “journey”. She just put the yoke around their necks and said “this is how it’s gonna be.”

        Well, all I know for sure is, according to LVP, their FATHER didn’t think they had it. After reading The Chronicles on Yolandia, that TT linked a while back, I don’t believe they have Lyme. It was very thorough, and the odds of them having it, defy the statistics. In my not so humble opinion, she has done her children a grave disservice.

        Still, I hope I’m wrong.

You get out of your effing dressing gown (bath robe!) and get on with your life because you have to. A week and a half ago my brother tried to kill himself and make it look like an accident, and it is only by chance and kind strangers he is still here. And this attention-seeking narcissist wants everyone to dance around her to her tune…..aargh, I could happily punch her face all day, which probably means I need to go offline.

You certainly don’t have the energy, time or inclination to publicize your sickness with a series of selfies. Most people around me know I have a chronic illness, but they honestly don’t remember most of the time. For that I’m glad, because it gives me a semblance of normalcy.

    LVP’s son should really shave all that facial hair off – he looks so WT and would be much better if it was clean shaven…still on the cusp about rich bus boys getting brand new cars (and everything else) handed to them….

    It finally hit me during this episode…. I think Eileen (as nice as I think she is) is just DUMB… and there is no fixing that…. Just look how she dresses, how she won’t let go with LVP, how she said to Rinna I still don’t know what you meant on the beach…

    I am confused why Yolanda sold the house if Mohammed gave it to her?

    I think the only reason she got that award is because they made a huge donation to some stupid foundation…and that dress was horrible… She must go! Just leave Anwar to bus tables at SUR so we can get more of him!

    I actually wish all the ladies would unload some of their make-up, especially the false eyelashes. LVP’s have driven me crazy for a long time. She doesn’t apply them to the inside corners or her eyes, and that makes them look even faker. JMO. Anyway, my point is as you age, less is more and you look younger, not older, with less make-up. I love it when Erika wears minimal eye make-up, she looks almost girlish, which a great look for someone in their forties. Of course, she appears to have flawless skin, which is a huge plus too. I almost hate her for that flawless skin…not really, but if their was anything I would want as far as beauty, it would be flawless skin. She is a fortunate, very, very fortunate. I like her her style and most of the time, her personality.

    I checked out pics of Rinna’s hair and Brandi isn’t telling a complete lie. Rinna definately wears a hairpiece at least sometimes. It’s obvious in many pictures. It looks like a topper. Her hair is fine and much flatter in some pictures , while in others her hair is much fuller and more coarse through the crown. It’s kind of obvious once you’re looking for it.
