If you’ve been reading Tamara Tattles for a while, you’ve probably noticed that my opinions on the housewives shows and the housewives themselves change from season to season. This season of RHOBH has been a lot more fun to recap than RHOA. As this season comes to a close, I’m going to miss it a little bit. And not just because you guys have been so great at commenting all season. RHOA on the other hand seems like the series that will never end.
We get right to the important matters according to Andy Cohen. First, Rinna and Erika both worn the same Louboutins to the reunion and they both decided to just wear them. I think that’s great. Andy asks Erika if she is wearing underwear she said she was. He asks if anyone is Sharon Stoning it, Rinna says she is, in honor of the great #pantygate issue that will never die. I hope she flashes PK.
Erika says if she wins the mirror ball she is bringing it hope to the WWHL clubhouse. Andy loves that plan and you know Erika would not have that thing in her house. Smart move, Erika.
We begin with Dorit’s obsession to be liked by Erika. I have never understood the whole need to be liked thing. It just seems so ridiculous to me. Andy is going HARD on Dorit right from the beginning via viewer questions. Dorit immediately starts with her usual defense, “I was just kidding.”
OOOOH Sidenote! I was invited to a preview of Unforgettable tomorrow night but something came up and I can’t go. Kenya Moore is going to be there. Now Rinna and Eileen are doing commercials for it. Is this movie from NBCu? Interesting.
Andy asks Erika about her comment about saying important stuff and Dorit saying boring stuff. LVP chimes in to throw DORIT, her little foot soldier under the bus. Right out of the gate it is obvious that LVP does not want Dorit back and regrets choosing her to be on this season. Andy is asking about Erika’s breakdown in Hong Kong but I am having a hard time paying attention because I don’t think Erika is wearing a bra, and she needs to be. I thought people bought fake boobs so they would not need a bra. Erika texted her son right before they went to dinner prior to the reunion and he was at a funeral for a fallen officer.
Andy keeps trying to make the Erika’s Hong Kong breakdown between Eileen and Erika and it never was. She says she knew the next day when Erika offered Eileen the use of her glam squad before dinner that it was a peace offering and that they would talk it out. Erika explains that she is a sensitive person so she keeps a wall up and is slower to open up. She also opens up to some people quicker than others. LVP is not someone she opened up to and she knows it so she has a weird facial expression as if she is wondering why she would not be quick to open up to her. Erika says that her conversations with her mother validated her childhood feelings.
On to LVP and her relationships with the other women. Eileen points out that when LVP says things like she saw Vinnie in the corner with his head up someone’s dress, she understands the true intentions of the “British humor.” She lets LVP know that seeing her confessionals this year about her confirmed her belief that LVP had not put the past season behind her. She says LVP is a little nasty. The talk for a half second about their reconnection in Hong Kong.
On to how LVP treats Rinna. Rinna says LVP loves it when she is in the hotseat. LVP agrees that she does like it. LVP says Andy likes it more. Kyle and Eileen all agree LVP likes it when others are in a bad spot with the ladies. LVP says there is something about Rinna that she likes. Just like Kyle she has a good sense of humor and will banter back and forth with you without taking things seriously. She says there are also things she doesn’t like and she wants to strangle her. LVP seems to think that Rinna asking Dorit about her coke den has something to do with their friendship. She said Rinna gave a low blow to her friend. Erika and Rinna say at the same time, “You give a LOT of low blows.”
Rinna keeps mentioning that she and LVP shared a significant moment where she thought they were close again. I was confused. But remember when they flew the private plane to go get the ponies? The guy flying the plane died between then and now while flying his helicopter and his wife was also killed and they were friends of Lisa and Ken and Rinna had gotten to know him as well. Wow, so sad. LVP cries and then she basically says that after that Rinna pissed her off again. Well, LVP sometimes people piss you off, and you get over it. You piss a lot of people off to.
Ugh, they are going to bring out PK.
But first Andy grills Dorit a bit more. He asks her to why Boy George lives with them. It’s all lies. She says she has a big house and he lies between London and LA. I believe the truth to be that is likely Boy George’s house and he let them pretend to live in it while they filmed the show, or perhaps even gave them a longterm rental on it on the condition that he can stay there when he is in town. Dorit does of terrible job of explaining why her kids are raised by nannies. She and PK work out of town a lot she says. She has a lot of functions at night, she says. She doesn’t seem to understand that is not a particularly good look especially when both kids seems to have special needs, that could benefit from a mother who is the primary care giver. Kyle tries to make excuses for her. Dorit claims to have three full-time maids. Dorit is fluent in Hebrew, Spanish, Italian and English to hear her tell it. Andy plays a clip of Dorit at he swimwear line fashion show in 2013. She has an American accent then. ROFLMAO. Rinna claims not to remember her confessional about Dorit’s fake accent. I believe her, because I am sure that would be easy for her to own. I must have caught the Bravo amnesia too because I don’t remember Dorit’s confessional mocking Erika’s speech by holding her nose while speaking.
Dorit says she was most nervous about the segment with PK because they are very protective of each other. She doesn’t want five women to attack him. Well, too late to worry about that! She says it is also a chance for him to defend himself. Yeah, no one cares what he says. Andy asks Erika what she thinks about him coming out and she says, “What can I do about it? Its not my show.”
Andy asks if any of the women will wear the dresses they are wearing tonight again. Rinna is the only one who says she will. I thought for sure Eileen would and she is wearing a black dress, why wouldn’t she? These people are idiots. Kyle says she has all of her reunion dresses in her closet as well as any dress where something bad happened like the dinner party from hell dress. Erika still hasn’t hung her Chagall. It’s on the dining room floor leaning against the wall. We pretend that Dorit has a rose gold Bentley. Andy asked the glam squad what air class they fly when Erika takes them overseas. They were all in business. Kyle says they all flew in a better class than they had.
Next we see Dorit back stage telling PK that no one wants to fight, and encouraging him to come on stage. I have been planning my photos according to Andy who kept teasing his appearance and now it’s really only going to be on next week’s episode.
PK sounds like he regrets being such a busybody. They replay pantygate. I hope LVP gets as much crap for that as PK. She was as bad if not worse than PK was. Erika was very uncomfortable with the long, long, pantygate montage. Erika says the entire storyline was embarrassing for her. PK denies staring at her. He says he only caught a glimpse and never looked again. LVP chimes in to say that because Erika wears a necklace with the word ‘cunt’ on it, that it would not be a big deal to her. WOW. Erika points out that is not the same as someone looking up your skirt and claiming they liked the view. PK denies saying that she did it on purpose. PK says he can’t be accused of saying that. Erika points out that is exactly what Dorit accused her of. PK says she can’t call Dorit a nasty person. She says she’s not she is calling PK a nasty person.
Next week: Rinna tells Dorit to shut up and asks again if people were doing coke at her party. Kim Richards has been reading blogs about the show to glean that addicts are not supposed to take each others inventory. She shares this information with Eden. This is something she should have considered during filming. When PK tells Erika she is not nice, she responds with , “Get the fuck outta her!” Rinna whips out her bag of pills again. Kim calls Rinna a liar.
Am I crazy or did this review only mention eden once!? Lmao I kept trying to remember who the last housewife was.. did she just sit on the couch and not talk the whole time! ??
Eden wasnt on the couch at all.
I would guess that fifty shades of crazy will feature prominently in TT’ s recap for part deux…that is if beggin’ for her diamond back, Kim let’s her get a word in.
Eden was not on the sofa this time.
I agree about the Kemsleys house not really being their own place. I think most things about them are lies.
I thought Boy George had been bankrupt.
I think LVP officially lost her crown. She looked awful and Eileen called her out quite directly on her British humor shit. Loved that!
I don’t like the hamster wheel part of Eileen’s personality. But I like how Eileen can be direct and I like her overall. No one is perfect. I think she tames the beast most of the time and ends up coming off passive aggressive and whiny. I also give her props for trying with LVP. Maybe all the trolling from LVP stans last year had a part in it. But she clearly was and is on to LVP and I liked how direct she was in saying what she said to her, because it’s true.
Enjoyed this recap! I’m obsessed with Erika’s look for this reunion! She’s like the perfect dream Barbie… who needs a bra. But her hair and makeup is on point!
She was 90% of the reunion tonight. Clearly Lisa needs a new opener. The crown belongs to Erika now!
I really like your page. But Fuck you adjust your commentary to suit your theory.
Um, duh?
OMG TT;………… you can’t use the word ‘duh’ or this happens…………
All I can say to uneducated apparently women with the name “Lynn” duh is your best answer are apparently islolated, don’t have an outlet in life except for “unreality TV” I’m sure you watch that Mana June that is all over the internet. I must confess, my 54 BF watched this crap, because he’s into it, I suffer through the nonsense. I’m terribly sorry your life is dull. For me, it amuses me people like you! I’m going to pretend I’m “uneducated like you” and take a word out of I’m sure is your limited vocabulary ‘”Duh”
Crazy peeps out there………
My god u’d think for 40K a month Erika would look better…that tacky gold dress, barby doll look and weird hairdo was really horrible…she seemed so bored and dismissive…honestly if its so beneath her and shes so over it…why even participate in the show?
Im over this energyless left couch…pffff
I’ve never heard her say she was over the show but over the pantygate situation. But Bravo has them beat things to death. She gets along with most of them which probably makes it a bit easier to film. She also seems to like the exposure they get from being on the show like the all do. Instead of some admitting they can’t see past a personal dislike for a person, I do find it interesting that when people call her out about having some of the same personality traits as the British Queen on the show. It seems like the bimbo Erika Jayne persona doesn’t really match how reserved and cautious her personality is…an enigma wrapped up in a riddle….was actually a perfect tagline for her. She doesn’t seem to be in the right packaging or accent for some who seem to be okay with it when it’s packaged differently and comes with mean digs wrapped up in passive aggressive humor and who is quite dismissive especially if her ego has an agenda.
Exactly! I thought she didn’t look her best also. Maybe it’s because I have a really good TV but he makeup was caked on so bad! It looked bad
ITA – an HD screen is very unforgiving!
Kyle, Eileen and Dorit looked the most natural.
She thinks her aloof attitude is cool and sophisticated. Being superior and above it all is her way. It’s worked fir many other housewives in the past and it hay just be a winning strategy.
Yeah quite honestly that aloof thing is just boring… what a snoozefest that reunion was… then again not surprising when u have stupid manufactured storylines like pantygate and Rinna’s inventions to create a buzz and stay relevant
I think she’s guarded and that makes her seem aloof. She has explained multiple times that she has trust issues and that may come across badly in terms of first impressions.
She’s right- it comes across badly. On the one hand there is this aggressive drive to be “queen ” and superior to all-I was aware how much of her time last night was spent looking askance at what others said ,expressing disgust , irritation or frustration , whiled putting others down. She intended to exhibit her superiority over them, her wisdom etc.
Mostly it came across as aloof, superior and arrogant. Honey, your much older Hubby is paying for all the toys you think make you appear to be superior- it is not like you earned them. You were a waitress when you met him-please. Lose the facade and be real.
On reflection, it is clear that her admirers think her toys are cool; her glam squad , limitless wardrobe, plane and funding, get everyone’s attention and desire. This is a woman who left her son at three to pursue her “dreams’, on the other coast, and now professes to worry about him. That is convenient to the current storyline, isn’t it? Mikey, the guy who she mentioned as key to her team, though without defined responsibilities, has been on three separate reality/cable shows I have seen, all of which were on the seamy side, like Pussycat Dolls. He is much like Erika-a fast talker, thinks he is very hip and cool, good at making others desire what they have, , but without a lot of substance.
They certainly crave attention, though. One of my problems with Erika is it is all too made up- from the Barbie Doll look to the all pink with popsicles- she is attempting to pretend to be of an age and to reach an audience she is 20 years past. And again, none of this happened when she was of that age- it is his money that buys it for her now.
And the problem with that is that, as she mentioned but no one has commented on, apparently
the panty gate issue has raised issues in their marriage. Erika has never told the same story more than once about it, but she made it clear that Tom had quite a reaction, and she had to work on providing answers, about it all. It was clear that that, in truth, was her issue with it-Tom did not take it as she intended, and she actually asked if PK would talk to him about it at one point. (thought doubt that would ever happen)
So being on RHBH was her ticket to a bigger audience, but has had other consequences she never intended, apparently.
Many elements of Erika’s facade came off this season, as often happens in S 2. And as we saw her more closely the lady who supported Yolanda, lied about that relationship and went after LVP just as paid to.
Sorry, not buying it all. Erika was hired to play a role supporting Yolanda last season, who had grand delusions of being queen of RH, for whatever r that is worth, and then continuing to fake/steal from each rich guy she married and allegedly attempted to cheat out of the premarital agreement. Once YO was dumped she went after it herself-and LVP, to succeed where she had failed. She has lying losers supporting this dumb game, dong exactly what they accuse LVP of. I have the impression the real Erika, beneath the facade and maneuvering , may well be a lovely person. Can we see more of her and stop the nonsense ,Erika? The Mikey games cannot continue as you age, and everyone sees through them- a la DWTS- find the real you and start to hone those skills.
Yes, shame on her for pursuing her musical dreams and having a successful and long-lasting marriage. How dare she say she worries about her son when he is in the streets working and putting his life on the line for disrespectful ungrateful entitled assholes who don’t give a f*** about law enforcement until they need him and who happens to live on her property, so he must be terribly hung up on her going to New York when he was young lol…. Mikey=choreographer, Erika=performer, Pussycat Dolls=performers makes sense to me he would be around them.
you seem beyond obsessed with this woman sweetie, the old #RHONJ line from Dina Manzo comes to mind…. “This girl is obsessed with me, I don’t know if she wants to be me or skin me and wear me like last year’s Versace”
Rinna, Eileen are cackling screeching birds, one speaks and if they get any slack the other chirps right in. Really tired of the LVP bashing, she’s consistently been the same. Dorit held her own and good for PK “owning” contrived bull shit. That was a snooze fest
Im just tired of that whole left couch…all of them being rude and dismissive and negative…for nothing on top of it coz nothing essential or of any value happened this season
How are they bashing LVP? I think they are just pointing out the fact that she dishes it out, too. She does take pleasure when others are in the line of fire! Did you see the look she gave Kyle? She can’t handle the smallest innuendo of her imperfection. I don’t dislike her, I just don’t think calling her out on her crap is the same as bashing!
I think they all looked very nice, loved Erikas look the most, she can pull off anything! LVP has for sure lost her crown, and really her place at the table it would seem. Loved how Eileen wasn’t bitchy about telling her that she knows the game and the score now and will expect nothing more than that. That video of Dorit from a few years ago cracked me up, her and her new affected accent… she and PK are way to thirsty. PK knows he came off shitty and is trying to pull it back. I am dreading Kim being on, she is a mean hot mess and isn’t really stable enough. When Rinna said she was near death she was right, with addicts and drunks they are not capable of stopping dangerous behavior so they are always “near death”. She isn’t a victim, she is the instigator! Kyle is so wishy washy that she pisses me off. As LVP and Dorit talked shit Kyle kept her mouth shut, that isn’t a friend.
Did anyone else notice that Dorit’s nose looked much bigger, in her swim wear clip, than it does now? Nose job, maybe?
Yep, definite nose job, erica and kyle too
And LVP has a completely new face!!
Yep, definite face lift for lvp
I agree with you that Dorit and PK are way too thirsty! PK is in a no win situation of his own making, he dug himself a huge grave throughout this season and I doubt he’ll be able to climb out of it.
And definitely agree with you about Kim being on. Anymore it is just pure agony to watch her when she’s on.
I cannot stand Erika, hope she’s gone next season.
That’s a wast of hope. She’s the queen of the franchise.
Aww- I love Erika! She’s true blue. Same with Eileen- beautiful, classy, straight up. These are true ladies and I would choose them as my friends. Rinna too cuz she’s so freakin funny.
Kyle is okay. I don’t like story with her sister and I think she has a lot to gain with this show– which is fine but exploiting certain people and situations doesn’t sit well with me. Especially family. Other than that small detail I like her.
Dorit is good for tv but thirsty and that’s dangerous
Vanderpump can go. I think her time is up.
Just my $0.02
PK seemed uncomfortable during the segment as he should have been. Who the hell “jokes” about liking the view of someone’s vagina to their wife? I couldn’t imagine Mauricio doing that at least not on camera . He and Dorit like to act they are just joking as if people are stupid. But some are so I guess it works out. Not only that, that scene of those two discussing it was filmed the next day or whenever as if they hadn’t spoke about it before then. He should lay low next season or get busy in his “business” and less filming like Mauricio does now. This man filed bankruptcy yet they are staffed to the hilt like they have Adrienne Maloof type of money and wealth. I smell fraud and posers and that’s what I can’t get past with Dorit. People like Camille and Adrienne were the real deal with it came to money as Erika seems to be as well with how much she has access to and it seems to piss some people off for some reason. Not on this site but on others. You may not like them or their personalities but they are just what they are financially and personalities where as these two come off like scammers. I kind of wish they would come off to really tilt the bucket as far as the amount of wealth on this show. But both are wealthy enough to tinker with the idea without needing the show for branding etc etc.
Anyway, the low spot of this season was Kim Richards and I really wish she wasn’t coming to sit on the couch. Some of the other catty things between the women is just that. The producers will beat a dead horse or make sure they do. I’m sick of her addition nonsense. I hate the Lisa Rinna keeps feeding into it as well. But Rinna is far more cognitive and purposeful than what she lets onto with this gig that’s why she isn’t going anywhere.I really couldn’t stand her at first but I see what’s she’s doing. Some thinks she’s vile and mean but hell the whole Housewives franchise is vile and low rent.
NFW Erica is the queen. Who are you people?! Everything about her is a facade. She tries to be so cool and edgy but its so obvious its just a cover for her insecurities — same with her so called “career” (bought and paid for by Daddy Warbucks). She’s a middle aged uneducated trophy wife masquerading as some sex kitten/pop star which she props her ego on like she’s self made. Puh-lease. And SHE DOESNT EVEN LIVE IN BEVERLY HILLS. How the hell can she be the queen of the Real Housewives of BH?
Wait until you find out that most of the RHOA don’t live in Atlanta….
In this case it’s like a show that’s So Off Broadway that it’s in Poughkeepsie! LOL Pasadena is not Beverly Hills. Rich but doesn’t come close to the prestige unless you’re a lil ole lady from there.
Yeah because Pasadena is soooooo white trashy, bitch have you seen Erika’s home and grounds? Fuck off with your She isn’t in BH they aren’t worthy crap. You probably don’t even make in a year what it costs to maintain her Pasadena home per month.
Um you mean her HUSBAND’S HOME? Who gives a F about that dark and depressing monstrosity. Looks like a mausoleum. LVP’s house is a million times better.
No, her home! FFS they’ve been married for nearly 20 years!!
Whoa! Opinions be damned!
Atlanta is a whole city though. Beverly Hills is a specific neighborhood that implies wealth/exclusivity.
Thats like someone claiming to be the queen of the Upper East Side but actually lives on Long Island.
Ya’ll realize that pretty much none of these ladies live in Beverly Hills, a city that is not part of LA despite being in the middle of LA, right? Kyle lives in bel-air, a wealthy ass area that is not BH. Eileen and Rinna are in Malibu, again a wealthy af and a good 30 mins from BH. Neither is Pasadena something to turn your nose up at (and it is a popular place for fancy schmancy attorneys and the like). I hate to break it to you, but there are plenty of super wealthy, luxurious, and beautiful areas in LA that are not BH. Please know your shit before making big proclamations that are beyond you.
Hit a nerve? You must live in Pasadena. I’m sorry
Sorry but BH is also a city, just like Atlanta. Many of the HW live in Malibu, the Valley or Bel Air
Only eileen lives in malibu. Rinna lives in bel air
Bethanny and a bunch of other people are not housewives, and yet, they’re called real housewives.
You think LVP didn’t get those restaurants with Ken’s money? The important thing is both women are trying to make names for themselves, even if they did start with their husband’s money. Erika isn’t sitting at home twiddling her thumbs. She’s out there doing her thing and creating jobs for dancers, makeup artists, stylists, etc. good for her! Even when she’s cussing, not wearing underwear, or wearing a cunt necklace around her neck, she still manages to hold her head up high and give off an air of confidence. I haven’t heard her talk shit about other people’s parenting, marriage, clothing, or occupation choices. She does her thing until someone directly insults or messes with her, then she puts them in their place. LVP is a straight up bitch who makes fun of everyone or points out their flaws, then cries and whines when someone says something to her. Go back and watch seasons past. She’s colder than Erika when she meets new people she doesn’t know. Erika is civil but distant, LVP straight up ignores people or talks shit behind their back. It’s her prerogative, but it’s hypocritical.
I loved Eileen’s dress. Her other strapless reunion gowns always kept sliding and shifting, but this one is spot on.
This has nothing to do with the reunion, but all season when they show photos of Erika in her youth, I kept thinking that she looks familiar, but never could place it. Today, it finally dawned on me who she looked like. She reminds me of the singer Mindy McCready back when she was very young and had not yet become a tragic, hot mess. I guess since I am not a country music fan, my brain could not remember the singer’s name…until today.
Can we please lose Dorit, and draft Boy George as a cast member instead?
Is there any point to Eileen. I don’t get the love fest for her at all. Never holds her own opinion and is always someone’s puppet. She’s the Carole of this franchise. I love to hate Rinna. Her behaviour is shocking but she makes good TV. Erika bores me. I personally think she held onto pantygate as if it wasn’t for that, what exactly would Erika of done this whole season? Perform in Mykynos and have an awkward lunch with her husband. I’m bored of LVP. I really hope they don’t bring back Kim Richards full time. I would’ve loved to of seen more of Eden this season, I do agree that she comes across as a bit “special.” I love Kyle. I could watch the Umanskys every episode.
So obvious Rinna is being manipulative — when she claims to “have no ill intent” before lamblasting someone with vicious rumors about them – that are actually slanderous and/or character-defaming, legally – there is no other intent other than “ill” when a person does that…just to insinuate that someone is doing drugs or drinking too much, as she has now with Kim and Dorit – maybe Brandi too when she was on – brings a negative spotlight on that person, and could result in terrible consequences such as children’s services taking Dorit’s children away, or Kim not being able to visit her grandson – her staying sober is a condition of that happening, an agreement with her daughter I believe she said in a confessional – .or them losing work just from those rumors alone, other ppl backing off from them, etc. Does anyone know if hws have agreements they have to sign stating they won’t sue each other? Seems like sometimes it would be warranted and if I recall correctly, did happen in early season of RHOBH possibly between Adrienne and Paul Maloof taking legal action against Brandi…and Russell Armstrong had threatened legal action against Camille…both for statements the hws had said on the show…anyhoo, not only is Rinna manipulative in how she goes after other hes and it is a pattern, she seems to have a lot of anger towards anyone with addiction problems…maybe it goes back to when her own sister died from an overdose, but remember a couple of seasons back, she was practically yelling at Kyle, “You walk away, that is the only way to deal with an addict” re: Kim, as if she was a casual acquaintance and not Kyle’s sister, who she loves…I know Rinna and Harry have both lost siblings to drug and/or alcohol abuse, and Harry himself had just gotten sober the first season Rinna was on, maybe she is carrying around a bunch of anger from all of that – if so, she needs to get some friggin’ counseling and stop attacking other ppl, it is SO not cool and coming from where Eden is, I would think she would have said something to that effect to Rinna, to not bash ppl in recovery, etc. Rinna is getting very dangerous legally. When she went after Starr Jones it ended up in the legal dept. of Celebrity Apprentice. I think she has serious mental problems
P.S. Also, Rinna faked that “sixth sense” b.s. and manipulated Eden…she planted that info about Kim to Eden knowing that Eden had a sister die from an overdose, that Eden herself is a recovering alcoholic, and made it sound like Kim’s situation was dire…Eden wasn’t around last season when the hws were in the Hamptons, each one said what kept them up at night and Kyle said concern over getting bad news about Kim…that was then, this season Kim is sober and seems to be doing great, Rinna deliberately did not clarify that…I don’t blame Eden for going to LVP with all of that info, asking her to put it all in context since she knows the women better, is bffs with Kyle, who Rinna called an enabler, etc. Eden admitted the dynamics with the Richards sisters was bringing up memories about her own sister. My point is when Rinna asked Eden in Hong Kong if anything had come up about her and xanax – with that b.s. “sixth sense” crap, prob a producer told her there was some scuttlebutt about it – it was in such a way that she got some info out of Eden nailing Dorit asking Eden if she thought Rinna had a problem with Xanax. We never saw that happen this season unless it was edited out. All it was was after their Mexico trip – where Kyle asked Rinna whether she said Kim wasn’t sober, was close to death and Kyle was an enabler – first Rinna said she couldn’t remember, then blamed it on Eden and said she wasn’t taking it. Well when they got back, Eden went to Dorit’s, and Dorit told Eden that Kyle had asked Rinna about all of that and Rinna had at first said she couldn’t remember then said she wasn’t taking it, was just deny, deny, deny, and Eden said Rinna was in denial. Since they were both perplexed by Rinna’s behavior about all of that, Dorit asked Eden if she thought Rinna’s behavior in that scenario was induced somehow, To me that could mean anything, as in induced if she feels her back is up against the wall, which she did, that she would go for a cop out like the don’t remember card, or fueled by unresolved anger over her sister overdosing, defense mechanisms, menopause, etc….Eden said she didnt know, just knew what she felt and that she doesn’t make shit up. That was it. So that was never clarified to Rinna by Eden. Other than that maybe a xanax question was asked after Eden, Rinna and Dorit had smoothies at Eden’s, Rinna said she had put xanax in her smoothies before and broke out her baggie.Even if Dorit did ask Eden if she thought RInna had an issue with xanax, who is to say that wasn’t coming from a place of care and concern? My point is Rinna claiming it was tit for tat to justify her accusing Dorit of the coke thing is b.s. for one thing there wasn’t a scene where Dorit even asked about xanax, just joked about the smoothies and baggie that Rinna was blabbing about. Eden finally had enough from RInna by the finale party but it wasn’t clarified, hope it is at the reunion. And it sounded like Kyle had just about had enough of Rinna in Hong Kong too…about time…Rinna really has a bad pattern of going after cast mates, maybe Eileen is scared of her…
Rinna never remembers the shit she stirs but always remembers when EVERYONE ELSE stirs her shit. Her selective amnesia is obvious and she should be embarassed, but not Rinna. Eileen is her ride or die, which is admirable, until it becomes a problem. It has become a problem and is now detrimental.
Bahahahaha I couldn’t read past the first line of that dumb comment. You do know Eden manipulated Rinna first? Rinna repeatedly told her she didn’t want to talk about Kim and Kyle but eden kept asking questions under the guise of “we sober women sick together” but really it was to get on LVPs good side. It’s painfully obvious so just stop. Eden knew what she was doing when she ran back and told LVP what Rinna said. Rinna straight up told her… I have my guard back up bc you back stabbed me. Eden.. is dumb.
B, you’ve just taken the words out of my fingers! Two range posts above make no sense and are ‘probably’ induced lol!
If induced by anything, it is disgust at Rinna after seeing her being judgmental/mean/slanderous about several of her castmates all three seasons she has been on…who is she to “authoritatively” declare anything about anyone? No one…
Huh!?! You must be used to bitches that talk behind your back instead of say things to your face. Rinna tells people how it is, without worrying about the repercussions bc …. it’s a TV show.
I actually quit watching because of Ericka.
I don’t think she will win the mirrored ball. She may be liked in Housewives world but I don’t think she is charming everyone else
A really stand out moment for me in this reunion and in this season was the completely mature way Eileen and Erika worked out the issue of what happened in Hong Kong. Clearly, when it happened Eileen was hurt and confused by Erika lashing out, and Erika was too deep in her feelings at that moment to react in any other way. However, later they consciously set it aside to have a good trip without just sweeping it under the rug and causing resentment. Then, later, Erika apologized completely when her emotions were no longer on blast, Eileen accepted and they talked about it and moved on. What a relief to see two people able to have a real friendship and resolve a conflict like grown ups on one of these shows!
I also find it unsavory the way Dorit just won’t give up the, “Why don’t you LOVE me??” shtick with Erika. She acted like an ass with Erika and made a point of humiliating her, so why would Erika want to be besties? Not only that, but some people just don’t feel that way about you for whatever reason and you have to accept it and move on. I call it ‘polite distance.’ I’m really hoping Dorit doesn’t come back for another season.
I completely understand Erika reaction to Eileen comment. My son served 3 tours in Afghanistan and 1 tour in Korea. I was was an emotional wreck each time he was gone.I stayed to myself a lot because I was always on the verge of breaking down.. For a parent it’s a lot to deal with.. I didn’t even look at the news..
I have a question, which may have already been asked. I’ve been on the go a little too much the past couple days and haven’t really read every comment on the articles I read. When they were in China and Rinna asked Dorit if people were doing coke in her bathroom and a bunch of chatter ensued, Rinna said to LVP “you know a little blow better than anyone honey”. LVP just glared at her. Were we supposed to miss that? I haven’t seen one comment on here about that statement. I’m wondering if it will be addressed at the reunion? If there were comments addressing this, my bad, I missed them.
That’s interesting, Skeeter, I didn’t catch that comment at all. Hmmm, wonder if it was just a quip or Rinna knows something? I hope they address that now, too!
I think she said “low blow” about the below-the-belt remarks that are an LVP specialty.
Wonder why Vanderpump’s would glare though? Isn’t she supposed to have a sense of humor and just laugh it off?
Skeeter, LVP said low blow and Rinna shot back with LVP knows a lot about low blows or something similar. Also, YOU WOULD KNOW THIS if you were not out gallivanting in THE WORLD. Why are you leaving the house!??? 🙂
This was my first RH reunion to watch. It seems this part revolved around Erika. LVP looked old, tired and haggered. I about died when they showed the clip of Dorit back in the day. She looks so different and no accent. Classic Andy throwing shade. I think her and PK are the next Bravo felons. 3 maids? For people who are out of town on business and have evening affairs? I’d love to hear what the maids have to say about what goes down behind closed doors! Here’s a show I’d watch Real Maids of the Housewives! Dorit acts like they’ve known Boy George for ages. PK representing him for 3 years is not ages, maybe in dog years. (My apology to Banjo if I’ve offended him with this comment.) Doesn’t Kyle drive a rose gold car? I bet she had the color first. Hopefully next week’s episode won’t be so boring.
I’m not sure I’m prepared for another bullshitfest, victim party with Kim Richards. Shut the hell up already, please. You brought all of the mess upon yourself, stop pointing fingers at the other ladies for how they reacted to your disaster of a self. I hope she’s better, but I’m not encouraged by what I see.
I think Erika handled herself brilliantly, I think Eileen is always poised, Rinna is Rinna and I love her for it, Dorit and PK are atrocious.
Love Kyle, but was not feeling her dress at all.
Erika being in control of choosing to wear her “cunt” necklace is on a different planet from PK taking advantage of a clothing faux pas (that didn’t happen) to degrade her. LVP is disgusting.
PK also said that Erika’s stuff was available to the world, implying that she is promiscuous. PK is a pig.
Eww eww eww, god he’s so gross!
Lisa Rinna is literally the most annoying person to ever be on this show. That’s not small feat when you consider she beat out the likes of Taylor Armstrong for that title. The way she inserts herself into every conversation, talks over people, throws in her non-stop comments at every turn… like, shut the hell up already!!! She almost makes me want Brandi back just so she can truly have someone as gutter as she is put her in her place.
How many fucks does Erika give? A shitload apparently.
Why is Kyle next to Andy? She literally contributed nothing to the first part of the reunion. You know it’s bad when Eileen is beating you in the relevancy department.
I cackled out loud at this, and I am in totally agreement with you.
Amen. This reunion was a total waste of time, and a reflection of how the season went, in my mind. A complete repetition of things we have seen at least four times before, each.
Now, BH and NY are my favorites, and the only ones I get any joy from now but it is not from the storylines- they are mostly quite poor. Its the women, their clothes ,closets, and lifestyles, and the couple of positive, more real ones like LVP and Kyle that get my attention. (Yes, I do understand it is all for show for Kyle, always has been, and while I don’t agree, there are many who would say the same about LVP.
There was nothing said that has not been covered twelve thousand times, this season, and I have gotten so VERY tired of the dishonest, insincere left couch- Erika is a complete narcissist, flash in the pan without true skills, just someone playing with Daddy’s money, as DWTS shows clearly. We all know just how beyond dishonest, cruel ,people pleasing and full of BS and a desire to hurt where she can ,Rinna is- then she reverses herself, takes the opposite point of view, and manages to forget all the angry hostile comments/lies she has thrown at people. Eileen is a ice lady, except when she holds on to stupid anger and goes after people like LVP_ unnecessarily, taking offense at an issue she then keeps alive for two seasons, rather than letting it die a natural death. Hence, self-inflicted pain while she torment and blames someone else for it. The result is she is hurting herself in the end, while trying to look like she is making proper judgments of others putting them in their place. Not really, dear. .
Eden was obviously hired to replace Kim with a different set of psychoses.-epic fail. Though we certainly saw her ability to. fight for her job at the finale-another waste of time and energy. Kathryn would have been much more welcome and interesting. A Faye fight would bring Kyle to some level of anger ,much as we hate Faye..
Kim has zero business being on the show. She creates problems wherever she goes, as she did this season- more lawsuits for Bravo, Kyle and herself,(after refusing to let a woman doing her hair for a shoot go to the hospital after Kingsley attacked her, until she agreed to lie and blame a stray dog) .. Meanwhile Kim insists life be just as she demands, despite court orders to the contrary. She is going to be in jail for good one day. Or worse- all self inflicted. Arrogant, lying, narcissist who is not willing to do the work and plays victim.
The fact that Lisa Rinna is so insensed by ANY one in the world having an opinion, comment, or question about her state of mind or behavior after pulling out a large baggie of assored pills and then waving it around so proudly, absolutely baffles me! It’s not like she wasn’t fullly aware she was in the middle of filming. But to then act so wounded by others opinions or commentary, and be worried by how it might affect her children is completely absurd! What in the hell did she expect? Just a thought……but perhaps, not waving around, or even carrying a baggie full of pills might be a start! Plus, if her poor children have survived her very special kind of crazy, loud, attention desperate behavior this long, they’ll survive this one too! Tho, I do hope they have a dedicated therapy fund set up! I’d have been mortified if my mom had acted like Lisa Rinna!
She said … 99% of them are vitamins … god forbid someone take some B12 … call the cops. We could also say the same about dorit leaving two guests at an empty table to go do “Mom” things w 5 nannies ???
Why do you think Dorit’s children have special needs? Did she say that?
Yes, the boy is nonverbal and the girl had physical problems with her head requiring her to wear a helmet. In either situation, most mothers would not “constantly be working around the world” (which I believe is simply a lie) or “having many events at night.” In general, when a child is not well, mothers become somewhat vigilant about their care and their first priority is getting them well.
Especially if they have the luxury of being financially secure enough not to have to work and to be able to stay at home with the kids. You’d think they’d be present all the time.
That was nonsense last night- she was just one-upping and trying to compete with Erika.
She said at one point they had one nanny for the boy, a half nanny for the girl and three homemakers, plus, I think ,two-three other fulltime backup nannies .
It sounded absolutely absurd.
TT I’ve been meaning to tell you about the baby with the head helmet thing. My cousins baby had the same issue. Well it was an avoidable “issue”. The baby was left in crib for long periods of time. She was a good baby and didnt cry much so she left her in there too long. obviously. and each time she was put in there she slept on the same side of her head each time. Her head became flat on that area she slept or laid on. She had to wear a soft foam helmet thing to round out her head. I’m not saying Dorits baby had same issue but it looked and sounded all to familiar. My cousins poor baby just needed to be rotated in her crib! And to be taken out of it more!
Guess I was implying i knew what was wrong with Dorits babies head. And should of worded it differently. Didnt mean to be judgy. Kids are a sensitive subject. Just sounded way too familiar. I’ll just leave it at that.
I noticed that Meghan RHOC, posted on Instagram saying that her daughter needs a helmet. Is this a ‘thing in America?
I’m hearing about it more to. Flat head syndrome they call it. More than not its due to baby lying on same side of head, night after night etc. In same poistion. Their soft heads develop a flat spot. I remember my mom saying about my cousins baby she needed to pick the baby up and stop leaving her in the damn crib all day lol
Rinna and Erika sit there like they are victims when it was their actions that set it off. Ericka’s non-panty faux pas will haunt her now with Andy mentioning it every time he sees her. She didn’t anticipate that. Rinna waving her pills like a flag states “come and get me.” Both women are pretty pathetic and desperate for any kind of attention.
How did Erika and Rinna ‘set off’ the pantygate and pills sagas?
Pantygate – LVP asks if Erika is wearing underwear and puts her hand up her skirt. Dorit and PK then make a huge hoo-ha about Erika’s hoo-ha.
Pills – Dorit gossiped to all and sundry about an off-the-cuff remark Rinna made about having a Xanax smoothie, clearly inferring to the cast that Rinna’s a pill-head.
It’s Dorit and PK that need the attention and the storyline IMHO. TT has said Dorit started the season as a friend of the HWs, not a HW. She needed to stir up drama and she did.
How come Erika will not just admit that she had a little too much to drink at that dinner in Hong Kong? She was probably on the road to Drunkville and that alcohol contributed to her lashing out at Eileen. Not saying she should totally “blame it on the Henny” like Porsha does, but it did play a part. Why not just say it? I thought she was so real.
I thought she did? I thought on the actual show (the interview part) she said it was a combination of the jet-lag and drink at dinner.
Well since this is the season of amnesia I am going to say I don’t remember that! LOL!
She may have said that in one of her confessionals, I really don’t remember, but I was looking for her to say it last night on the reunion show. When they were discussing this issue and her behavior, to me it seemed like she was holding something back, like there was something on the tip of her tongue that she was not saying. I was just assuming that was it.
She had also just spoken with her son who was about to attend the funeral of a gunned down officer. There seems to be an open season on cops and is terribly worried about her son. Add that, jet lag and booze and it is a melt down.
i never thought i’d say this, but i’m officially DONE with LVP. i finally see what everyone else has been saying for quite some time. it IS all about Erika now, and LVP knows it. just check out the way she’s constantly glaring at her with that little smirk.
Dorit and PK are DISGUSTING and i hope that they don’t come back. Eileen is growing on me again. I don’t like Rinna…BUT, this show needs her.
i really don’t understand why Kim Richards will be on my screen again. it’s like i almost want to NOT watch next week because i just can’t deal. if you don’t want to be discussed, then stay away from the camera! how many seasons have we been discussing her and her shenanigans? there should be a rule that once a HW leaves the series, they shouldn’t be a topic on the show anymore.
Agreeing with all of this.
I can’t believe anybody takes Rinna’s bag of pills as anything but the joke that it obviously was, and I didn’t even watch it. Fascinating.
OMG! I’ve just seen a preview clip for next week, Kim Richards gives Rinna the bunny back!! What a mean, spiteful and downright nasty thing to do. If anyone is inherently cold, it’s Kim!
I’ve disliked Kim since game night when she hid Brandi’s crutches but this is a new low and now people are praising her on social media for it?! I get that people dont like Rinna, but c’mon… you don’t do something like that, she’s just vile!
Yep. She makes Rinna cry. We talked about that here. http://tamaratattles.com/2017/04/09/rhobh-three-party-finale-schedule-where-at-least-three-people-cry/ Though I was surprised by the lack of outrage.
It’s clear, Kim was never a decent person. I understand that it is the result of a traumatic childhood. But plenty of people had life scarring events in childhood. Until you can get rid of those resentments, you’ll always be a bitch. Clearly she had not been successful in doing that. It’s a hard thing, I’ll give her that, but it’s pretty much a requirement for a happy life.
EXACTLY. Kim needs to fall off the other side of the planet and never come back. She said she was fine w Rinna but keeps coming up with reasons to be on TV .. its vile.
And when Kim said Rinna could gift the rabbit back to her ‘when she’s in a better place’.
Kyle’s face was a picture.
And then LVP pretending it was a peace offering………FFS.
Thank God Eileen piped up at that point.
I may not like everyone on this cast, but I think every single lady does her part and does it well. I’ve been entertained all season long except when Kim made appearances. Please lose Kim for good. I don’t want to see her at alllll. I want to see rich bitches living glamorous lives sprinkled with some petty AF fights here and there. Bring on the morally corrupt Faye Resnik as a full timer, and keep the current cast minus Kim and Eden. I’d cream my mother fucking panties.
Never been a Kim fan and check out when she is on the screen.
Ok, so as far as I can tell, the tea on PK and Dorit’s house is that it’s owned by the jeweler to the stars Pascal Mouawad, who I think once dated Jenny McCarthy.
It’s been listed for rent over the past couple of years at between $29,000 and $35,000 a month, so unless they’ve purchased it very recently (ie. so recently that records haven’t updated, which is unlikely as the show was filmed so long ago), that’s likely to be their current status. It was listed as furnished, so they probably don’t even own the stuff they’ve mentioned on the show like the Billy Joel piano, which isn’t surprising as I’m sure PK’s creditors would chase their possessions if they owned anything of value. Even Dorit’s Birkin is probably a rental.
It’s one hell of an ugly house….IMHO.
Johnny Super Sleuth strikes again!!
Good stuff! Thanks. One more reason to love this site.
i found a website that states who owns the property but i have to have an account to see the full name, which i don’t want to sign up, but it looks like the initials are D. E. L. Dorit’s maiden name is Lemel. it would make sense the house has to be in her name due to PK’s bankruptcy a few years ago
D.E.L. stands for Dxxxx Estate LLC, with the word beginning with D being the name of the street the home is on. (I don’t want to put the street name on here, for obvious reasons.)
The house is owned through this LLC, the sole officer of which is Pascal Mouawad.
Or, the Birkin is as real as Taylor Armstrong’s was – which was faux. Well, everything was fake except for her engagement ring which is why she got so upset that she had to give it up – if I recall correctly.
Caught a few minutes of the show and I was shocked at how LVPs face looked like plaster of Paris. I am not a fan of all the Botox and make up on anyone. I quit watching after the Brandi, Yolanda, Kim debacles, but have always enjoyed Ericka .
I honestly don’t think Erika has the personality for being a long term cast member. I just can’t see her being able to open up and become animated enough for this show. I’m afraid she will become boring and her reactions too predictable. I give her one more season before this occurs. I hope not, but I predict this, sadly.
Here’s the deal. Focus. We all know Rinna is right.
ski lifts are running.
Did anyone see Dorit!s you tube swim suit no accent Inteview? she is such a weirdo. There’s is no way anyone can have 3 cleaning professionals . It’s too weird.! Parties are ensuring me thinks.
Dzammm, that was some shade Andy threw at Dorit about the maids, and she caught it too. I could feel her indignation through the screen.
So rinna gets to used the I don’t remember excuse and she and Erika in unison can both deflect about lvp giving low blows instead of owning it. Don’t think lvp went as far as rinna in her low blows at all.
The reunion was boring though. It’s clear Erika is going to make an excuse and be excused for her mistakes and Kim is going to be used once again.
They keep feeding rinna and her trolling will continue to worsen.
Is it trolling when you are right, as Rinna hasn’t been wrong.
I don’t get the criticisms of LVP’s look. I know her eyelashes make her look like an aging Kewpie doll, but at least she didn’t have a bumpit on her head, and her dress was the best one of the bunch. I thought she looked good.
Erika was on point with her brand, but I had to laugh when I saw how short that dress was and the gap when she crossed her legs. Glad she’s wearing underwear. 😉 But that makeup was a bit overdone. Especially in HD.
I would love to dress Kyle just once for the reunion. She never quite hits the mark.
She’s a bad actress in her own play. The cold one.
