Well, the fairy tale love affair between Tinsley Mortimer and Scott Kluth has ended. I for one have the sads. That seems to be the universal reaction to everyone I talked to about this today. I’ve delayed writing this post until I could speak to one of her representatives that I know so I could find out what happened. I finally heard back with only a version of “no comment.” I was actually hope the representative would say that Page Six is making things up again. But sadly, it seems to be true.
A source told Page Six exclusively, “Tinsley thinks Scott is a great guy, it was too much too soon. She started filming ‘Housewives’ after escaping a really bad relationship and then jumped right into a whirlwind romance with Scott. She didn’t have time to heal or fully settle back into life in New York.”
Who is this source close to Tinsley? Sonja? These two have been traveling the world together for weeks at a time. Tinsley has a job at Coupon Cabin as an account executive. They’ve been pretty much inseparable since filming ended for last season. This makes no sense. None at all.
So here is my theory. It’s almost time for RHONY to start filming. I think Scott wants to get married and have kids. Maybe he didn’t want her to go back to RHONY and she’s doing it anyway? The plan was for Scott to move to NYC about this time. “Moving into a place by myself was a good start at getting my confidence and independence back. I moved out of Sonja’s into the Marmara Park Avenue Hotel at the end of February and have lived there ever since. It’s the most beautiful little boutique hotel, and the staff is fabulous. It’s really going to be difficult leaving there, but Scott and I are planning to move in together in NYC at the beginning of the Fall. I will really miss my petite safe haven at my hotel, but I’m hopeful a new adventure is beginning!”
Did Scott suddenly realize that moving away from Chicago where his business is headquartered would be a bad idea? Did he tell he that he wanted her to move to Chicago?
They spent the first half of September traveling Europe together and seem very much in love. She was back working at Coupon Cabin on September 13th and then there were no more photos of her with Scott. She did put up a photo of them in Vegas after the shooting but that was a throw back photo from their last trip there. HOW THE HELL are you making out in Italy one day and broken up just a few weeks later? How?
This is so wrong on so many levels. I hope they find their way back to each other.
Hope it is just hype for the new season–
It would not surprise me if that was the case and the season ends in an engagement. My contact is usually very forthcoming even it if it is off the record so this time seems suspect to me.
Awww…..definitely a sad face from me. Well, once she sees what is out there perhaps a reconnect is in the stars.
We can hope…..
Also excited they started filming. I miss NY!
So proud of Bethenny and LuAnn for all they have been doing !
No shit. Scott is like a unicorn. She’s a fool if she walks away from that. Surely if this is real it is his idea to move on. She’s pretty flighty. I love her but,…she is not going to find anyone better than Scott. He’s just perfect.
He’s a smart guy- nuff said
Amen. My opinion, I am sure, won’t be popular but I believe it was mostly storyline on her part. My guess is he found the gold shovel in her closet.
Kerching!! That’s what I thought too. I can imagine her to be very needy and high maintenance but I do like the girl.
I hate it for them, too. They seemed so nice for each other. Tinsley is framing this as the failure of a “long distance relationship” which implies Scott couldn’t or wouldn’t leave Chicago. However, it seems the door isn’t “hermetically sealed,” hope it’s just a hiccup.
SAD SAD SAD, NO NO NO THIS IS A MISTAKE. I hope that she doesn’t chose Bravo over love. sadness abounds
I was hoping they would stay together. She seems to have gone through some trauma in past relationships and deserves a good guy. Scott sure seemed like a great guy. Sorry to hear this.
Hoping this is just a story line because everybody knows that faking relationship trouble on reality TV always works out, right?
Very sad if this is true but hopeful this is just hype for the new season.
I had wondered if she and her ex husband would ever get back together but I know he’s now engaged. If this separation is true it feels sudden and not quite right. Something is definitely off.
Sads. I hope they reunite. If its about tje show, Tinsley needs to be smart amd choose jim over humiliation and stupidity on a weekly basis.
JAYSUS my phone is the worst for autocorrect!! I hope most can decipher my comment.
I’m really sad for them – they seemed like such a sweet couple and truly compatible. She needs to give this a lot of thought before she lets him slip away, presuming she has a choice in the matter. I’d hate to see her forego happiness for the sake of a show.
This girl needs to grow up. Well, her brain needs to catch up to the rest of her. Hasn’t she enjoyed the single life enough already? You can’t be a person who wants to get married and have kids at her age and still feel like you need to be single a bit longer. If you found the guy, get on with it!
I would be concerned that her love of her old life in NYC elite society, with the Mortimer name, was such that she doesn’t want to give up the chance of having that aura again.
But I have no facts to base that on. I hope the speculation might in fact be true and it’s a stunt for the show. They were both lonely and seemed sincere and well intentioned. My guess is that she wasn’t ready to give up NYC for Chicago- but that should be an easy choice if she’s truly in love. Let’s see.
I would bet that her Tito consumption and maybe other indulgences were a turn off for him
Exactly. Everyone thinks it’s Tinsley’s decision to call it off. Scott needs someone more down to earth.
I think from what we saw on RHONY last season it is possible that Tinsley is an alcoholic. That may be part of the reason things didn’t work out for them. I won’t be surprised if Tinsley’s drinking is is a bigger storyline this season but I guess time will tell.
imo Scott is well out of it…unless he wanted to play Daddy to a grown child in a marriage.
Tinsley, having regrouped a bit , now wants to relive her glory days in NY…..she’s a ‘flitter’, she wont settle down.
I’ve been trying to get info on this from some of my sources. A Vegas source who saw them when they were there last, about a month ago, said they were getting along well. The only thing they can come up with is that the couple was inseparable and Scott’s group of friends he goes to Vegas with all the time seemed a bit unhappy that he was spending all his time with her.
