Sometimes I receive information that I don’t want to believe. This is one of those times. The source is pretty solid and would definitely know the information. It is bad news.
This reality show participant (RSP) showed up to work late, and was not sober during much of the filming of the last season. RSP had a major storyline and is a the focus of the show. Because of the behavior of RSP at the last reunion, RSP was assigned a minder to stay with RSP at the most recent reunion. specifically a sober companion. The sober companion was with RSP from the time RSP landed in NYC, sharing a hotel suite until RSP was delivered to the reunion set. RSP was sober upon arrival, but at some point during the long filming day, RSP seemed sedated.
While the sober companion story was very interesting and believable. The big news is that RSP is reportedly not being asked back for another season. This is the unbelievable part since RSP is a huge focus of the show. I suppose the immortal words of Abby Lee Miller are true, “Everyone’s replaceable.”
I still have my doubts that production will go through with this.
Kathryn..
Vicki has spread.
TT has a donation page?? Fer real?? LMAO…….Banned!
LMAO!!!
It is KATHERINE because TT loves Katherine. Read the first couple of lines.
Kathryn.. it was obvious all during the filming.
This is why I stink at blind items
– not sure if MDLNY has reunions
– never watched MDLNY reunions if they had them
– the real estate sellers don’t get shit faced
if this is RHNY (see why I suck?)
– Bethenny is not a drinker but she is THE main of RHNY
– Carole is not a main character – just the most boring and she wasn’t drunk at last reunion
– I just re read our hints – I am praying this is not sonja- she was out of it at last reunion
my guess is sonja – I hope I am wrong
Why would they fly them in when they are already there!
you understand RH cast do not have their asses nailed to a chair in NYC – most vacation – and I am not talking “the hamptons” or “palm beach”
Oh FFS, you don’t fly in from the Hamptons to NYC!
dear FFS –
do you see the word NOT?
IF it was someone in NY, they would not be staying in a hotel. It is so obviously Kathryn.
Sonja was pretty drunk the last time she was on WWHL, but that “flying them in” has me stumped, too.
Romona? I, Too, am really bad at these. But, I do love them!!
RSP = Ramona Singer Pinot ? 😉
That works::))
Ramona did not have to fly to New York for the reunion. It Kathyrn from Southern Charm. Had already heard she had a handler at the reunion
I think RSP is Ryan Seacrest Productions, and I do not think they produce any of the “Housewives” BUT I believe they do produce “Southern Charm”. My guess is Katherine!
RSP – Tamara had already said that stands for Reality Show Participant.
@CJ: Ryan Seacrest Productions was my first thought when I saw, RSP too, but then I saw Reality Show Participant. My initial thought was a Shah since RSP produces Shahs (not Southern Charm), but other than MJ, I could not think of any others drinking tons THIS season.
My guess is NYC Sonja. She was in Europe just before the reunion, so that would account for flying in to New York. ?
Ryan Seacrest Productions produces Shahs of Sunset, too. Could it be Golnesa or MJ?
RSP=reality show participant. Although I initially thought about Ramona too.
I was just skimming the replies to see if anyone else came to the same conclusion… RSP (reality show participant) = Ramona Singer Pinot.
Good on ya!
Yesssss!
To those who helpfully pointed out that RSP literally stood for “reality show participant,” I thought that went without saying 🙂 But TT often embeds clues.
I think Ryan Seacrest Productions is probably a better guess than mine, though.
RSP is Reality Show Participant. Hence the initials following those three words (in all lowercase) in parentheses.
Dorinda Medley
Housewives of NY
My guess is Kathryn. At first I thought it might be Tinsley because the cast members were making “day drinking” comments and she was visibly drunk in almost every scene but she didn’t have a major storyline. Kathryn was visibly sedated/drugged up during reunion. If this is true, Sourhern Charm will be a snoozfest next season!
Can’t be someone on RHONY because TT said her sober monitor stayed with RSP through the flight and landing in NYC for the reunion.
Really hoping it’s not Kathryn. I like her a lot, but I also think it will be bad for the show to kick her off.
Bad for the show, but hopefully good for her well-being.
Unfortunately it’s a rocky road either way for her. But you’re right, chances are best for her with both her AND Thomas off.
Ya know? It could be that she has become just too much of a potential liability and is a much needed wake up call.
Craig better watch his back given your reports of his behavior when less than sober.
Craig doesn’t have anything to worry about if Shep can’t even get on an airplane.
Kathryn. But how did she ditch the babysitter to go hook up with Thomas? Hmmmm. Southern Charm needs to he canceled anyway.
It can’t be a New York cast member because it says “since they landed in New York”.
Please let it be Sonja or Ramona. Sick of them both.
It’s Kathryn. The showed up late to work comment sealed it since she didn’t start filming when everyone else did.
If it is her it is infuriating that she gets on her high horse and complains about everyone else’s behavior but never owns up to hers.
She’s an asshat and the show is better without her. I can’t enjoy a trainwreck when I know there are kids suffering as a result of their behaviour. I’m guessing that’s why Kathryn leaked the news that she banged Thomas. Hoping that will interest people for next season…… it doesn’t.
But Kathryn is NOT THE FOCUS of the show. What about Shep? But he has a new show, so perhaps not. Remember when Cam had to wake him up? I understand being fabulously wealthy may not seem like a huge onus (as I am overdrawn in my checking account) but it can be. Shep is under a certain microscope and although his parents seem very nice and supportive, there is that expectation — not from them, from the society he was born into — to produce an heir. Being on the most eligible bachelor in SF list was a major part of what contributed to an acquaintance’s suicide several years ago.
At first, I thought it was a Shah because when I see, RSP over and over, I think of Ryan Seacrest Productions which produces Shahs.
Probably wrong, but NYC Sonja would be my guess.
How sad. This definitely sounds like Kathryn
Hopefully it’s a blessing in disguise. I’m actually shocked the production company doesn’t want to continue filming this person…something tells me they are being “forced” to do this, which again, may be a blessing.
I agree 100%.
Anna, I understand you but who would we bitch abiut if they are gone? I do love most of Sonja’s (& Dirinda’s) outfits. I find Ramona seriously emotionally lacking at times to the point of evil. What the hey, makes me think I’m sane.
Clearly this is Kathryn. I will no longer watch the show if she is not a part of it. No one has a storyline worth watching.
Think this is the best wake up call for her.
I think it’s Kathryn too. I doubt she hooked up with Ravenel after the reunion. That girl lies like a rug.
I don’t think she did either, but her fans wanna hear that, so that’s what she said.
I would say Kathryn or Shep. Kathryn definitely seemed sedated at the reunion. So quick to bond with Landon…It also said RSP’s behavior at the last reunion.. which is when she stormed off. I mean its redic they would get rid of Kathryn because of her behavior but Sonja gets plenty of attention when shes falling down drunk
Sonja doesnt go into rages where security has to be on the set.
Yikes. Am I the only one that would be happy if it was Katherine? For me it was painful to watch her and her story unfold. In my opinion She should not be on tv for her own sanity. I much rather watch Craig and Naomi.
You’re not alone in hoping it’s Kathryn. Piss on the show. Her health and children are more important than a damn show. Makes me think about Russell. RIP Russell, and I’m so sorry things played out like they did. These shows wreak absolute havoc on so many lives.
I am glad to see another person with sympathy for Russell. The first time I saw him I told my nephew “that guy has the weight of the world on his shoulders. I bet his drunken wife is sending him to the poorhouse.” Then my sister told me about that ridiculous birthday party for their very young child. And if you saw his drunken widow on Celebrity Rehab, you see what he had to deal with. I have seen MANY alcoholic wives blame their injuries on spousal abuse when it the injuries were due to their inebriated state. Thst is so wrong to do to the millions of women (and some men) who are TRUE victims /survivors of domestic abuse. I think Taylor was not abused, watch her try to walk on the episode of RHOBH where she forgot where her child was with.
I think this a teen mom og reunion. Maybe Farrah……
Definitely Kathryn. I read weeks ago she had a handler with her the entire time she was in New York, up to and until the reunion was over.
That girl needs to go take care of herself. Being on the show doesn’t help. Oh, Kathryn, of course.
Seems like it is Kathryn. But why single her out when Dorinda seems drunk so often on camera, with food hanging on her lips, and Ramona engages in drunken spews, with Sonia having drunken vaginal displays. And Kathryn has been giving great sober interviews of late. Bravo should be applauding her progress. Maybe the Carpetbagger is finally getting her way. She and elderly Andrew are undoubtedly jealous of youthful Kathryn for so many reasons.
Maybe the difference is that Kathryn can’t show up and perform? All those drunk, disgusting women on NY do manage to show up. At least they can [sometimes ?] walk straight enough to film and get drunk while filming. Just thinking out loud here.
they are not trying to raise babies either.
Oh please, no one is jealous of Kathryn. Laughable. She needs for her health and kids to be off this show.
Kathryn
The 1st one that came to mind was MJ from Shahs of Sunset.
Definitely Kathryn. Absolutely. Positively. No doubt. Kathryn.
I’m wondering if it’s Shep! Kathryn is the obvious guess but the blind seem so to suggest it would be more shocking. Would Kathryn be that much of a surprise?
I was just about to write the same thing, I can’t remember him behaving badly at any of the reunions though so Kathryn may be a safe bet.
GG from shahs?
Before reading the comments i immediately thought MJ from Shahs. Not sure if the other clues fit into that though.
It very well could be Shep. He wasn’t sober most of the season, while being sober was Kathryn’s storyline. He was late for filming to meet Cam about the house and late to the airport leaving Key West. Everyone said he was beyond trashed and almost didn’t make the flight. Then at the reunion he flew off the handle a few times. I know the odds are in Kathryn’s favor on this one, but you can’t count Shep out.
Why would Bravo give him his own show, but kick him off SC? And this is someone who makes the show? Austin and Shep look interchangeable; Thomas is a rich guy with old money, too much time on his hands who enjoys a cocktail – just like Shep! Yea, he’s definitely expendable. Wouldn’t consider him a deal breaker, either.
I’m going to assume this is Kathrine. I think the only shows that travel to NYC for a reunion are Southern Charm and the Below Deck shows. I can’t think of anyone who would be “the focus” of BD so it has to be KCD.
Thanks for the post, Tamara!
Ugh. It does sound like it’s Kathryn. SC is extremely boring without her. I’d rather them not have another season than have one without her. I’m very happy to see her doing so well in her custody situation. The children should be her main focus. That being said, I’m afraid she’s got that Reality TV Bug and wouldn’t handle not being on the show very well. They weren’t going to have her back last season and they must have realized that she truly is the show for most people. Shep is a drunk and he gets his own show?
She’s got the bug for the reality tv show dollar. As far as I know she has no other income, never finished her education, her family isn’t rich, and I can’t see Kathryn punching a clock 40 hours a week.
I don’t think she’s got it together enough to fruitfully capitalize on her fame/notoriety.
I hope it’s not Kathryn.
I so wish that there would be a Pygmalion / My Fair Lady / Pretty Woman show where Whitney’s mom, Patricia, would play Henry Higgins to Kathryn. Instead of mentoring the insipid, boring, gold-digging, entitled Landon, she could do it with Kathryn. The biggest challenge, besides getting the two ladies to agree, would be to NOT QUASH (the word is not squash) Kathryn’s spirit while teaching her the art of being a Southern Belle. And NOT a fake Phaedra southern belle, but a southern lady who knows the rules, but then knows when it’s a good time to break them. I can dream …
I believe it’s Shep from SC or Ramona from Rhonyc. Most likely Shep Rose though…
I think it’s Kathryn. She is the best thing on the show but as a recovering alcoholic myself, I hope she leaves the show, gets sober, finds friends in AA that she trusts and takes care of those beautiful babies. The first year of sobriety sucks; it’s incredibly hard. I can’t imagine doing it on TV.
Ugh. I’m so bad at blind bags! I think “Ryan Seacrest Productions”, then I think Reza. Then I think “somewhere Mike Shouhed is wasted.”
I would guess Kathryn====but that would take a chunk out of the show.
Too bad its not Thomas who I think is a closet drinker and appears sober cause drunk
is his natural state.
I dont know about anyone else cause I only watch SC, NY and OC and BH.
Shep
If it is KD, she will still be the focus of the show as long as T Rav is on the show.
Shannon ?
I thought Kathryn too, but I thought she was doing good. Didn’t I read here she was getting her kids for the weekend and that was the third phase of the parenting plan?
She is only in the first phase of the plan. IF she can get through all three phases it would take a year.
What about Kati from VPR? Or James Kennedy?
What is the answer Tamara?
It’s sad that there are so many people it could be because there are several who appear to have pretty serious issues with alcohol. I would say it certainly seems like Kathryn. But it could be Shep (however they did give his own show), Ramona (she didn’t have to fly into NYC but she was a drunken shitshow all season & they could be looking for an excuse to get rid of her since she’s so much older than everyone else without saying she’s too old), Sonja (had to fly in to NYC from France), James Kennedy & almost anyone on VPR, or Shannon (bless her heart, I saw that she’s using vodka for courage to be around Icki).
If I was betting, I would say it’s Kathryn. BUT Southern Charm really doesn’t have a show without her and I’m pretty sure they realized that after season 2 & they keep bringing her back – they tried to just make her a part-time friend of the cast last season.
Get off tv and raise your kids! Kathryn.
“Landed in NY” does not rule out the RHONY cast. Many of them travel, especially at the time this was filmed.
But staying in a hotel in NY? Maybe Tinsley. Dorinda, Ramona, and Sonja have homes they would stay in, not hotels.
Also, it can’t be an OC lady because those reunions aren’t filmed in NY. Andy goes out to California for them.
I think it’s Katherine Dennis.
It could also maybe the SC-Savannah? That teddy-wearing one always seemed half in the bag. It could also be TRav, but I can’t imagine TT not wanting to believe that!
They only had one season, thank goodness and no reunion.
Gotta be Kathryn… Other RSPs overindulge but are not the center of the show and don’t have numerous enemies. The show will suffer but it was
Painful to watch her, much like Kim Richards. Maybe she will be able to get her act together.

He has never drunk alcohol. Had a brother who died of alcoholism.
