Good Lord these taglines are terrible. I can’t even begin to describe all the random comments from each of the housewives before the show started. How does one get rat poop in a stove? Were those warming trays? I’m nauseous and would have to throw the entire stove out.
Kyle
I know Mauricio was keen to sell the house an move to Encino, but is doing renovations during filming season kind of a really bad idea? It seems like Kyle is thinking she is renovating the old house rather than getting a new house. She’s putting in marble floors. Why is she changing the shape of her pool? Who does that? And how is she putting a fireplace in her bathroom. I don’t think California allows fireplaces anymore.
Just get me to Croatia!
Rinna
Lisa Rinna meets with Teddi to pretend to eat lunch. LVP and Dorit have already tried to keep Teddi from liking Rinna. That said, she seems to like her anyway as they bemoan the high cost of private school tuition in LA. Teddi invite Rinna to come see her in her upcoming horse show.
LVP Throws A Dinner Party For Dorit
PK called LVP the day before to ask her to throw a dinner party for Dorit’s birthday. She has it a Villa Blanca, the restaurant they have been quietly trying to sell for forever. Because they lost a lot of money in those lawsuits.That said the place still looks quite lovely. This is Teddi’s husband, Edwin’s first party scene!
PK goes out to get a present for Jagger. Will it be another kajillion dollar car? A wrist full of Cartier love bracelets? Tickets to be immediately whisked away to Paris? Nope. Nope and Noper. It’s a three-year old at an adult party dressed in a white suit with a Happy Birthday balloon from The Dollar Tree. WTF? And she cries and acts like she hasn’t seen him for months. Has she sent him off to be raised by wolves someplace? Now that would be an improvement? I do not understand what is happening here.

So she plops her prop down in her lap and tells him to say hi to Erika and Rinna and Teddi. They say hi and wave and he says, “BAD GUYS!” Heh. Those little ones soak up everything. Dorit makes him clarify that it is in fact Erika that is the “bad guy.” Oh, Dorit. You are in for one shitty season now. And I am living for it. The Jagger calls LVP she is a bad guy too. Then Teddi tells Erika that there was a moment in Vegas where she felt “dismissed.”
Erika
The Pretty Mess is writing a memoir with a co-author. Oh the co-author is Brian Moylan he writes recaps for Vuture and is really, really good at it. Please don’t read them. You will never read my typo ridden incoherence ever again. This site is really the only place online that does recaps. Google is not your friend. Is his nose sunburned?
Erika has only seen her father three times. He basically does not acknowledge her existence and they have no relationship to this day.
Teddi
Rinna, Dorit and LVP go to Teddi’s horse show. I haven’t looked at the photos The Fabulous Lady C has pulled for this episode yet because, once again, these three women don’t look like the are going to the same function. LVP seems to be in a black pants and fancy top rut this season. While that is a look I enjoy wearing, on LVP it just seems so “boardroom meeting” to me. Rinna is wearing a modified version of the Canadian tuxedo (jeans, denim shirt) and Dorit is in a frilly pink mini dress. Dorit is adamant that her look is best for the horse show. I’d say Rinna got the closest, but could have gone with a crisp cotton dress shirt rather than a wife beater topped with an open denim shirt.
We find out in the car ride that LVP was born in 1960 and Rinna was born in 1963. Suddenly I feel so much younger all of the sudden. LVP says the only lie on her drivers liscense is when she said she weighs 108 pounds. My license is about to expire. I think mine says 125 as that was my weight when I got my license. I should probably double that for the new license.
Teddi does not own the horse she is riding. It seems like she’s never ridden it before. It doesn’t seem to matter. I got a bit teary eyed watching Teddi on that horse. It was a thing of beauty. I have this stupid leaky eye thing around things of beauty which is why I cry 90% of the time I am in Paris while muttering “wow” at every turn. I was in the Paris Opera house on a tour on Christmas Eve once and you just kind of get in to little groups and go out on the balcony and look down. Well, the pianist was there doing a rehearsal/sound check and it was magical. So I broke down into heavy sobs of happiness. A German tourist showed concern to make sure I was okay. I just blubbered about how lovely it was. I should point out that if a German tourist is being nice to you, they must think you are dying because they are normally super mean. I thought she was going to insist I come home with her,
Teddi took first place. Somehow a conversation about church breaks out between LVP and Teddi. LVP is working Teddi HARD, y’all.
Dorit And Teddi Have A Double Date
Perhaps The Dollar Tree balloon for Dorit’s birthday was due to the fact that Dorit managed to acquire nearly $19K in Hermes dinnerware to use for a her dinner party with Teddi. Methinks she bought more than just service for four. I have yet to bite the bullet and buy anything at Hermes. I kind of against that sort of spending. But I just want the orange bag and the orange box. I’m like a kid who loves my Tiffany boxes more that the items that I got in them sometimes. Plus the items are in the bank, but the boxes and cute little bags are in my ghetto shack.
I am a bit aroused by Edwin. But he seems sort of um, gay. NTTAWWT. Dinner conversation turns to IVF. Apparently, Teddi and Edwin both really wanted a boy and when their son was born, there were some really scary moments. The boy has a heart defect and Teddi and Edwin feel like it was punishment for choosing to have a boy rather than going with what God intended for them.
Of course PK tries to relate by telling a story about his son being born blue with a cone head. Production plays “dear God this guy has no compassion at all” music while he tells this very common story.
It looks like Dorit made some sort of cous cous for dinner. I’d love that. But she doesn’t someone who would be good at Moroccan food. I do appreciate that she served everyone, and I presume the Hermes plates make food tastier, but frankly I thought the plates were ugly. This one time I booked a hotel online in San Diego because a boy was asking me out on a date, I love giraffes and there was this like outbreak of giraffe babies at the San Diego Zoo. These seemed like good enough reason to burn some Delta Skymiles. I ended up in a hotel in the gay district. Apparently, I was supposed to know better than this. I thought the hotel was fabulous and I did get some straight girl shaming from guests, but the restaurant was totally empty when I went to dinner and THEY SERVED DINNER ON VERSACE PLATES. It was one of the best meals/moments of my life. It was like the Versace logo on a plate. I was youngish and poor and the whole trip was very memorable.
Anyway, Dorit and PK are still trashing Lisa Rinna. Dorit is so horrible. Teddi gets it too.
WTF IS MY CROATIA FOOTAGE?
With six minutes left in the episode, Rinna gets a call from Kyle in Croatia. Could they not have given them a Go Pro camera or something? Dayum. I feel robbed.
Next week: WE GO TO TOKYO WITH RINNA AND ERIKA! I WANT AN ENTIRE EPISODE OF JUST THAT! Unfortunately, production is stupid and we have Kyle and LVP getting snarky with each other and some sort of dinner where Dorit talks about strap-ons apparently in a way that is mean to CAMILLE! God, Dorit and PK are horrid people.
The best part of the episode was Lisa V., Dorit, and Lisa R.’s wardrobe misses for the horse show. Erika is boring this season.
Dorit has no story line and I am sick of her and her husband sitting around talking about Lisa R. That is all that is going on in their lives?
I really think Rinna was right on target. Look at the people in the background. She always is dressed for the occasion. Sensible shoes and all.
I agree, Rinna’s outfit was right for the occasion.
Really dislike Dorit and PK. So two-faced. I am glad Teddi didn’t fall for it. And I agree, the way Dorit fawns over her children kills me. So phoney and over the top. And Dorit had to wave a birkin around as well as Kyle has been. I wish it was shown a little longer so some experts could opine as to its authenticity. Something seemed off about it.
Is Bubba the new pet name for everyone? So fake.
What was the writer wearing? Looked like a suit with shorts or he was sitting so oddly. I felt bad for Erika’s experience with her father.
Dorit’s speech pattern or accent of turning the pronunciation of the letter D as a T drives me INSANE!!
“My childt andt my husbandt are here.”
STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP.
As a southerner, the bubba thing is also driving me crazy. It is usually reserved for your brother and not your lover. Bubba is southern for brother.
My sister is like that with her kids and it is so weird. Every time she sees them it is like she has not seen them in ten years. I am talking the kids go out to the back yard and come back in and she has to FAWN FAWN FAWN all over them because certainly their backyard experience was some sort of magic carpet rainbow and unicorn spectacular the rest of us were not lucky enough to be a part of. Delusional is all I can say.
Jesus that would drive me nuts. Do you stand there and roll your eyes? LOL
I cannot stand watching this show. I like Kyle, Rinna & Erika but even they cannot hold my undived attention. In bed with a book & the Bravo housewives are losing the appeal they once had. Sorry to be a buzz kill & thanks for watching so I didn’t have too !
Lately I have been watching while cleaning if at all. Everyone is aware of the cameras and their image so any previous authenticity is dead. The show now feels like an hour long infomercial. I have been choosing to stream YouTube and Netflix shows, slowly replacing Bravo’s sad reality shows.
Also, Bravo seems to have a “separate but equal” segregation policy going on regarding their programming. Outdated mindsets like those of Bravo executives responsible for programming will no longer be supported by me. I will continue to lurk here because, this platform is entertaining and needed not to mention the great commentary from the other readers.
I fucking hate Dorit!!!!! She is a fake pretentious cunt with a bizarre fake accent and a creepy ugly chubby man for a husband. The way she squeals and her high pitched shit noises make me want to thrown shoes at my fucking tv. Ok and I really like Teddi sonfar, she seems to be pretty damn normal when compared to Dorit. LVP is also being pretty cunty to people. And let me say Rinna looks a whole lot better than LVP, one has aged much more gracefully. I do love Erika, I can see why people assume she is cold or dismissive with them. I think she is so used to judgy bitches that she kind of doesn’t bother with females much anymore, and I also do not think she is a gold digger. If she is or was they both seem happy with the arrangement so who are we to say, but I don’t think she is, I think they have a real love for each other.
LMAO! You got it down totally!! Im still laughing. ..exactly how I feel, I couldn’t have said it better 😉
Agree 100%%%%%%%%%%%
Yes to everything!!
Spot on, completely agree with you therealdeb! Great recap TT!
Totally agree!
Rinna aging gracefully, hilarious- I just sprayed coffee out my nose over that. But I do love Rinna and think she got treated badly at the reunion last season. She is definitely a little on her own now that Eileen is gone. Miss her. Teddi is like the rest of them, looks so sane until you realize she’s not. I like Erica and just because she’s cautious doesn’t make her a mean girl. I am Kyle fan but I’ve got to agree with Harry here, who was only protecting his wife like any of the other husbands do.
I’m thinking Dorit is aware of her role this year as the most annoying person in Beverly Hills and is playing it to the hilt. Either that or she is the stupidest housewife ever. Not sure which.
I thought lisa was 10 years older than Lisa Rinna I am surprised too! LVP smokes so maybe that’s it. She’s beautiful nonetheless
She smokes??? Really???
Man, I am not feeling that sower of salt, Dorit. For one thing, I mostly forget what happened last season, so when Dorit hit the ground running with whatever the rinna drama it’s super boring and petty. Although I have to admit I kind of liked Dorit’s bingo outfit last week. Thank you for being a friend..
Dorit and Paul Kimsley are both big ugly disgusting cunts. They think they’re soooo clever, but in reality they are so transparent, shallow, vindictive and jealous. The just couldn’t wait to go off on Rena and proceed with their bully act. Neither one has ever taken any responsibility fo the horrible things, names and accusations they’ve leveled against the other housewives, Instead they always act like victims. This was again a perfect demonstration of their dirty deeds. Nasty fucks.
Very well stated, Creampuff! Agree completely.
Yeah, me too!
Bubba is the nickname I have for my 34 lb one eyed, blind, enormous pug. It fits him so well I wish I could post a pic. Not sure I would want that nickname for myself.
LOL that’s the most hilarious thing – I’ll think of your pig fondly every time I see Katie.
Um, that was “pug” not “pig.”
Pug? I’m disappointed. I have a soft spot for big ugly pigs. Used to visit a beautiful farm in Northern Ireland every summer when I was a kid and was madly in love with a huge sow called Sadie. She wasn’t a particularly nice pig – a bit on the psycho-killer spectrum, but there was something about the evil glint in her eyes that fascinated me. Somewhat like Lisa R. when she loses it.
Ha! I totally pictured one of those pot bellied pigs!!! I misread your post too!!! Either way love of our pets is something it sounds like we all share!
I love Dorit mainly for all the reasons you all seem to hate her.
Editing.
I like For It. When they gangbanged her on that boat and Rinna, Ericka and Eileeen all attacked her For It held her own. I think her kids are precious.
Dorit’s glam squad is trying so hard, and failing at every turn. What was with that messy wet do at her birthday dinner? The wannabe Erika Jayne glam crew, the rented house, the Birkin, all the “my love” references.POSERS! I literally cringe every time I hear her fake accent and affectation. They’re both so gross.
I agree! When she was getting ready for her birthday party I thought her hair was wet from a shower. It just looked greasy and dirty at the party!
I thought the same thing!
blondes never look good with the crunchy hair look. I speak from experience
Yes, the weird wet do, then the crusty gold last finale, the funky braids, the soft old glam in the talking heads – whichever one is authentic?
She is trying so to be Erica, but failing.
those braids popping up in the past two episodes pointed out how weird the editing is, unless she is stupid enough to do those pigtails twice.
Odd that Dorit didn’t have a glam posse last year until she realized Ericka had one. Suddenly, this year, her posse goes everywhere with her to make her look “like this” *EYEROLL*
I’m also shocked that Lisa V. and Lisa R. are less than 3 years apart in age. I thought Lisa V. was early 60’s and Lisa R. was maybe very early 50’s. They’re both beautiful women. Maybe it’s because Ken is 72, and that makes me think of Lisa V. as being older. It’s not that she looks old. Wouldn’t mind looking like either one of them, preferably Lisa V. – she has that classic, cool, English beauty down pat. Plus, Rinna is meaner and I don’t think I have the energy, or inclination, to keep up her particular level of readiness to do battle. Haven’t seen this episode yet, but looking forward to it. Dorit and PK are real turn-offs for me, but I suppose I have to tolerate them if I want to see the other ladies.
I think I’ve figured out why I always thought Lisa V was older than Lisa R. It’s the way they dress! Lisa R always has a young vibe with jeans, cut-off jackets and little tops, and Lisa V sometimes looks as though she’s going to a garden party with the Queen at Buckingham Palace. Not to say Lisa V doesn’t look gorgeous most of the time – I especially loved the way she looked at the Diamonds and Roses dinner, but she does dress in a more conservative manner at times, such as when she went to watch Teddi at the horse show. I like it when she dresses casually in jeans and boots – she has a fabulous figure and can pull it off. I think it also boils down to personality – Rinna’s more “out there”, and VDP manages to stay cool, calm and collected. Well, don’t know why I’m babbling on, they’re both stunning women. Think I need to sign off and go to bed.
Lisa V is in her 70’s Hello?
Afraid not. LVP has always said she’s 15 years younger than Ken, who is early 70’s. LVP is late 50.
I call BS on 1960. No way LVP is a year younger than me.
People often think I’m older than I am because I married an older man with children so while my friends were having kids, I was becoming a grandmother. This is my story and I’m sticking to it.
I was also shocked to hear that Giggy is only 8. I thought for sure that dog was around 15
Lisa R. is more baby faced and has better skin, and dresses trendier. LVP has thinner less taut skin and a more matronly fashion style, big stiff hair, and tends to over dress, or wear mom jeans. Thats all I can think of. Erika has an older husband too, but it doesnt make her seem older. But with LVP it does for some reason.. My husband allways swears LVP is older than what she says she is.
Lisa Rinna has a crazy amount of filler in her face; she’s sporting that, “pillow face look” that Madonna sports now. She crossed the line a few years ago and admitted she looked terrible. She said she would cool it but she’s obviously back on the needle. LVP uses fillers/Botox too but more modesty.
You know who has that tacky overpriced designer china? Kim Z. Who the heck wants to keep up with that trash?! I can’t wait to see Dorit get exposed for the phony that she is.
Tre Giudice has it too.
Kim’s china is not the same brand it is Versace, whereas Dorit’s is Hermes.
Versace? Hermes? Plates? Do they sell them at WalMart? Probably why I’ve never seen them before.
Assume you’re joking?
I love, love Hermes. My ex-husband bought me a few pieces from there over the years, belts, leather bracelets, a handbag an amazing necklace. I’d love to buy a few scarves and turn them into pillows.
I don’t care for Versace-it’s too,too for me. ; )
The elevated misogyny at Bravo keeps on keepin’on. Everything lately is geared towards construction as opposed to deconstruction…..in the worst way. So obvious. Super Editing. It would be so fantastic if all the players …..would comment on this at the reunion.
I have no idea what that means. Can someone translate?
Whoa!! Talk about kids repeating what they’ve heard! When they brought out tiny Kroger/KMart/Jiggy to “surprise” Dorit and then he opened his innocent little mouth and called Erika and Lisa R. “bad guys” my jaw fell down to my gravity-challenged boobs. Eeeewwww! And he didn’t stop there ! Vanderpump got it next! Dorit immediately saying that he’d never heard that from her was such B/S. He not only knew his mom and dad didn’t like Erika, Lisa R., and Vanderpump (who I though was a friend of Dorit’s), but he knew exactly who each one was, which probably means they were watching the show in front of him and were talking serious ka-ka about them. Dorit thinking she was the only one appropriately dressed for the horse show was hysterical, although LVP definitely looked as though she was going to a board meeting at Bank of America. Dorit is delusional. Phoney, pretentious and delusional. Can’t stand her or her equally obnoxious husband, and the way she acts around her children is creepy, not natural and relaxed at all. Like she’s just putting on a show for the camera. Please, Bravo, send them packing!!
WOW…..why take swipes at an innocent child? Was that seriously necessary????
You’re hysterical English Rose!
You’re hysterical English Rose!
I dont think EnglishRose was attacking Jagger, her point was that Jagger didn’t make that up on his own. I tend to agree with this opinion. My 2 cents
Specifically this is what I am responding to:
“When they brought out tiny Kroger/KMart/Jiggy”
Clearly a swipe at how he was dressed- I found him to look really cute in his little bow tie!
Actually, I didn’t intend my comment to reflect on the child at all, and the “Jiggy: was an unfortunate choice as, of course, it bring up thoughts of Lisa VDP’s dressed-up dog. That didn’t enter my head at the time – meant to type Joggy or something else nonsensical. Couldn’t remember his name. The little boy wasn’t at fault whatsoever – lovely child and he looked adorable – but his parents’ phony behavior and having put ideas into his tiny head that Lisa R. was a bad guy, was awful.
correction, “Jiggy”, not “Jiggy:
I understand what you said and I’ll up you one. That sweet child should not have been paraded out at an adult party in an adult setting. We (they…RHOBH) know this is all on camera, shameless. Out of the mouth’s of babes…children at that age repeat their words when they receive any positive response or encouragement.
Yes, they do! Often to the great embarrassment of the adults. Dorit should have said, “No, no, little Jagger, I said rad guys!!”
Haha, “bad guy” was 100% for Erika, and mostly for Lisa R. I think him saying it to LVP is at that point when kids realize the adults are paying attention and egging them on to be “cute.”
He may have gotten the two Lisa’s mixed up.
It’s mostly all so superficial – nearly impossible to comment. That said, the way Erika’s father failed to acknowledge her existance – was very painful. His loss, but so hard on Erika. One has to admire her determination where others might have been overwhelmed by feelings of rejection. She sets a positive example for those who have been treated in a similar way.
Erika is interesting and seemingly honest . She’s street Beverly Hills.
Erika looked so sweet and tender when Jagger was brought in. I’m sure she has a soft spot for children. We know her adult son lives with her and that she’s always happy when she hears his steps on the stairs because she knows he’s home safely (he’s a police officer). She seems to have been an excellent mother.
Roof rats are very common in Phoenix too. Everyone has a citrus tree or “two” those looked like crumb drawers on the stove. I suspect over reacting (production?)…they look like the drawer on my toaster.
I would rather have sex with that Las Vegas cocktail dildo ice cube from last week’s episode than with PK. Dorit and PK totally rent their mansion, the real owners wanted to do the kitchen, closet and backyard renovations, so they are totally liars (that’s why they lived in Miami’ for a few months). I found that they are so transparent and so two faced. They rag on Rinna to Teddi and Edwin, but not Erika. They think they are superior to everyone except Ken and Lisa and this is only their second season. I bet her Birthday Berkin was from Rent The Runway and the Hermes dinner wares was either a wedding gift or an irresponsible purchase to show off to the viewers. Also, Dorits hair at her Villa Blanca party had as much gel in it as when the golden goose shat on her hair for last season’s season finale party at LVP’s House! I’m not her biggest fan, but have to admit Rinna was able to move forward, act polite at her Birthday party and at Teddi’s horse competition, but theb PK and Dorit resort back to being disgustingly phony and pot stirring again!
Agreed, that hair was atrocious. What type of look were they trying to accomplish? Dirty and wet, ragged mess? Awful.
Tacky dinnerware. Tacky behavior. Tacky, tacky, tacky. So far I like Teddi, she was appropriately put off by Dorit’s behavior.
Rinna only got up to toast dorit at LVP’s suggestion and I think she did a fair and authentic job of being kind while not phony. Why trash her for doing so later at your dinner party? Dorit is a bitch.
I was so happy someone agreed with me about Dorit’s hair lol! Also, Teddi seems very authentic and I like that she isn’t easily pursuaded by the other women’s gossipy opinions! She did see thru PK and Dorit and that couples dinner. Both her and Edwin looked uncomfortable after PK called Rinna Schizophrenic. Also, it was LVP that pressure pushed Rinna into making the speech at Dorit’s Birthday! She wasn’t acting crazy!
And really if you are that wealthy you don’t need to run out and buy dishes to have guests over. Jesus I do hair for a living and my husband works in a mill and I have 3 sets of China, Norataki, and can’t remember the other 2. They have been passed down from both sides of the family and I could put on a beautiful dinner party from boxes in my garage. These people are fake as fuck.
Exactly! I have family inherited China that I’ve never used because it has been in storage boxes for over a decade lol!
I have China too handed down from my great grandmother. I don’t use it because I can’t put it in the dishwasher. Yes, lazy, I know. But do display on walls and in my china cabinet.
I don’t have a dishwasher. And most of the good stuff can go in anyway. But how hard is it to hand wash a plate? Are you having dinner parties for 80? USE THE DAMN DISHES.
Also, those boring grey dinner plates are like $300. The red versace lions are a bought the same price.
No way that shit cost $19K
I use my good China all the time and it goes in the dishwasher. If you like to cook and entertain, part of the fun is a really nice table setting. Maybe Dorit has some passed down stuff as well and upgraded for braggery on the show. One of her plates costs as much as an entire set of Noritak.
According to her “receipts” sure, according to Neiman Marcus online they charger is $300. She also didn’t put a full service out. Just the plates. Four plates less than $1000 to serve her couscous and vegetables on.
Looked like a fake receipt too.
The plates are probably rented, like the house and the car and the Birkins….
I know it sounds mean, but some people should have genetic testing before they’re allowed to do IVF. Dorit’s kid has a lot of issues, this daughter had to wear a helmet and now Teddi has a kid with genetic defects to his heart.
Sorry not sorry, there are all these children in foster care and waiting to be adopted and these people would rather pay all that money to force science to give them what Mother Nature already said NO to!
Idiots
Is there a way to test for the cunt gene? If so, I hope you have/had genetic testing before you procreate.
Good one LMAO!
what a disgusting thing to say.
Really? You need to educate yourself about the process of IVF before you start judging. Genetic testing is required. idiot.
I’m guess her name is just a vanity title on this site. Surely if she were a doctor of medicine, Hell, a doctor of anything, she’d know this already. As for the other judmental comments, doctor or not, that’s a shitty thing to say. That’s all I got.
Personally, and not as a jab at you, I don’t think it’s anyone’s place to judge another’s fertility issues, choices, plans, etc. Having children is an extremely personal choice and no one should judge another on how they choose to fulfill this basic human need to procreate.
It seems to me that a ton of kids on these franchises have disabilities. Serious disabilities. It makes me wonder about some of the more contemporary ways of creating babies, and late in life kids as well. Children are not accessories, or props.
As someone who has struggled with fertility issues and is at the age of having a “geriatric pregnancy”; we have chosen not to add to our family because of the risks associated. This was a choice, as I have already been blessed with a wonderful healthy child. That being said, we are in a time where women are not getting married in the early twenties and starting families. I find it highly insensitive for anyone to judge how or when a woman decides to have children.
Well a speech delay is not a huge disability neither is needing the helmet, that is determined by how they are laying in the womb. If this is a “God already said no thing” why did God not tell the crackheads no & there wouldn’t be any children in foster care!
The head thing is not from “laying in the womb” it’s from laying in the crib on one side to much. Or simply being left laying on a play pen or anywhere too long on one side. They need to rotate sleeping directions and be held more in the daytime.
I think the boy’s “nanny” was actually an autism nanny who took him to all of his autism related issues. The good news is he is showing great improvement and the helmet will fix the girl’s smushed head.
I think that OC’s Meghen’s daughter was wearing a helmet in some photos on her IG feed. She put hats over it, I guess to camouflage it. Like TT said, it’s from letting the child lay in one position for too long. I figured they weren’t holding the baby enough but letting her lie in her crib or whatever too much.
Genetic testing is one of the first steps done in fertility treatments – be that clinic, iui, or ivf. Dorit’s son having speech delays has nothing to do with it. Dorit’s daughter needing a helmet is extremely common & also has nothing to do with genetics. And Teddy’s kid’s heart condition also can occur with non-ivf pregnancies and perfectly healthy parents. My friend’s daughter was actually born with Transposition of the great arteries recently & had open heart surgery last week. She & hubby are young, super smart, did genetic testing just because they wanted to and can afford it, went The best ob-gyn they could find, thought everything was fine and she was born with a defect because SHIT HAPPENS. You’re pretty ignorant for talking out of your ass & clearly making judgements while beingcompletelt uneducated on the subject, it’s hilarious your username says “doctor” – you don’t know jack so shut your damn mouth. Clearly you were born with a stupidity gene.
Posters seem more upset at the Doctor’s inaccurate comments that IVF requiring genetic testing. What upsets me is the implication that the children being imperfect are not as valuable.
Those kids are precious. Many of us have all sorts of health problems and were brought into the world in many different ways. That is the human conundrum.
What a rude, judgmental, uneducated thing to say. Go away
I would not have my children without IVF. Your comment is one of the most disgusting things I have ever read. Shame on you.
This comment is for the “Dr” above, sorry it went to the wrong person!
Imagine being a person with a disability and reading this. It’s not an ugly trait to have a disability but rather what is; is judging as you just did. People who endure IVF don’t tread into it lightly and they want a child; any child. Is it any wonder they STILL feel so unwanted in society?
Dorit’s bizarre fake accent is so rediculous and her husband is so creepy, I feel embarrassed for her, and I hate feeling embarrassed for people on tv. She’s getting so much attention this year. I don’t get it. Fools.
I love LVP. Wonder how she keeps her rocking bod?? Never see her working out.
Was reminded how intense and interesting this show used to be after watching the season 1 marathon this weekend. Now it’s mostly just superficial self promotion. Not that I want that nut job Kim back. Just used to a lot more interesting.
Season one of RHOBH showed LVP working out with Cedric but nowadays I thinks she only works out how to stay relevant on the show & keep Vanderpump Rules going. Tough work I say!
I too am finding the editor’s choice of featuring Dorit with all this head shot time ridiculous. She is offending each of us, and I think that is the plan. With each word she digs her grave deeper; see all the comments above. The façade has so many cracks, is so false , from the voice to the hair. Nothing rings true- but that dress she wore to her birthday party was great looking- til we saw her hair.
My problem is we need someone playing the part and she is about as inoffensive as they get, I suspect. They need the balance on the show, without KIm. Some bad-ish couple. They certainly fit the bill and can rile all our feathers.
They are so darn irritating and dumb at the same time-what a waste of money !!!
We are not the only blog community on the internet. I visit others every once in awhile and am surprised which community likes who. For Instance, Erika is not well like in several of the other communities, LVP is god over on RT and Dorit is viewed as a woman that stands up for herself. Different strokes.
LVP has a home gym. I bet she still uses it, but since Cedric isn’t there anymore, they just don’t film it. I remember one of Cedric’s complaints was that she used to wake him up in the morning to work out with her when he wanted to sleep in LOL!. Yes, he had a free luxurious place to stay but felt so entitled, he was bitching about being expected to act as her companion. I would take that job all day long!
I was thinking Teddi was a cool new addition til this episode. I can’t believe she thinks it’s a woman’s job to make babies! It’s 2018 get a fuckin clue. And her career is texting people reminders to eat healthy is beyond stupid, must be for people with no friends.
Maybe if more women acted like women and not entitled money grabbers who add nothing to a relationship other than boobs and butts, there’d be less divorce.
I didn’t take Teddi’s comment to mean that she actually thinks it’s a woman’s “job” to make babies. I think most woman just assume that’s the one thing they’ll be able to do without issues when they are ready so when it’s discovered that they can’t it can be devastating. We women may not say it out loud but I think subconsciously we figure that is one thing we’ll be able to do. Not meaning that it’s the only important thing women do.
agree 100% with LaNY
Exactly! Even as a man (albeit a gay man) I understood what she meant.
Tamara, I do love Brian Moylan but I love you too which is why I’m here daily reading your recaps 🙂
As for this show, producers must think we want to see non stop fighting and therefore prompt Dorit & PK to keep trying to resuscitate their conflict with Rinna.
I bit my tongue all of last season but now I have to comment about the extremely high levels of 2nd hand embarrassment I suffer every time Dorit & PK are on my TV screen.
Dear producers(fingers crossed that some of you read this blog) we viewers all know Dorit & PK DO NOT OWN their home and CAN NOT afford Hermes china or even 1 authentic Birken let alone multiples she claims to possess. We all know Dorit’s accent is fake as hell and she appears to be Phaedra 2.0 with how she dusts off her children for the cameras and then place them back in their bedrooms to be tended by their nannies in the off season. When cute little Jagger entered the birthday party for me that was most cringe worthy scene of the entire episode! I do feel horrible judging a mother but I think she should just stop filming with her younger children and just stick with her oldest child, PK.
I wish producers would please get this show back to the real reason we all watch in the beginning.
Seriously why was Kyle’s family vacation to Croatia not filmed?! I would’ve liked to have seen Lisa Rinna and her daughter moving into her NYC apartment. I want to see Teddi riding horses and having fun with her family and Ericka flying around on her husband’s private jet with her glam squad. I even miss Jiggy and his multiple outfit changes.
Am I the only one suffering with season 1 withdrawals?! LOL
I love this and you are completely spot on about EVERYTHING! Hope the producers do read this and take yours and many viewers similar complaints seriously!
I echo every single word, LaNY!! Thanks very much!! Producers please take us seriously!!
I don’t want Kim back…nor nasty Camille!
Yes! I want to see all of those things you list! I don’t want to see Dorit and PK doing one single thing. Not in their kitchen; not playing with their kids; not going out to dinner. It’s not appealing.
Just can’t with PK and Dorit didn’t like either of them 1st season and that feeling hasn’t changed their second season..
Ericka’s dad is a asshole.
I am shocked at LisaVPump and Rinna’s ages. Pump looks so much older.
Kyle tearing up her house what the hell what a waste.
Teddi is ok so far ..
I think Ericka is embellishing the truth and that her mom filled her head with lies. Is she going to put in her book that she left her child to find s rich sugar daddy?
Her mother helped her for a few years but Erika raised her son along with her ex husband. I highly doubt Tom would allow himself to be a sugar daddy, that man is shrewd as hell and won’t be taken advantage of.
You assume the sugar daddy relationship is one-sided. Do you think 78-year old Tom would get to f*** a hot blonde if he wasn’t an extremely wealthy lawyer?
Oh I know it’s not one sided but there is no way in hell that Ericka would have given him a second if he wasn’t wealthy. I’m sure he created a rock solid pre nup though.
Erika has stated there is no pre-nup.
I don’t know why Erika needs to discuss the difficult child custody decisions she made with her son when people like Ktina all seem to have been there with her and know exactly what happened. Perhaps Ktina should write the book since she knows THE TRUTH!
Applause TT
Yeah, I don’t get why Kyle is upgrading her home while selling it. Ripping out hard wood floors? Folks pay a ton of money to have them installed. The pool renovations, stupid beyond belief. Oh well. She may end up back at that place after all.
From the looks of the listing, Kyle and Mauricio must have found the new place mid-renovation and put a stop to the work, because some of the floors have been switched and some haven’t, and some of the bedrooms and the movie theater have got some carpets that look about thirty years old.
Surprisingly, they seem to be having trouble selling it, because they also added a rental listing recently ($50,000 pcm, no less!). The rental listing has been removed in the last couple of days, which makes me wonder if they’ve decided to move back there.
I was confused by the entry hall floor renovations..The trim was still in and it looked like they were covering existing flooring.
I know a lot of people that opt for a cheaper method of renovation that can work ok but ultimately not ideal long term. (Married to a contractor) If you’ve got the money, do it right, right? Going to have DH look at that tonight, already warned him…
Can someone from the west coast chime in about Rinna’s rat problem? The producers are obviously toying with us, with the brief snippets/scenes about the rats. Growing up in a big city, I associate rats with inner city problems, garbage, subways etc. But someone once told me that on the west coast/malibu/beach areas they have what she termed “roof rats.” I was grossed out at the time, but am at a loss as to how wealthy suburban (?) homes can have rat problems. Anyone?
Someone here really hit the nail on the head re Dorit/PK being extreme posers — pretending home ownership, and spending crazy money to show a lifestyle they cannot afford. I can’t believe she spent almost 20K on Hermes china just to film a two minute scene (where we can’t even see the china pattern on the dining table). I wonder how much in debt they are and when we will hear about bankruptcy. Unless they are eating ramen noodles when the show isn’t filming. And maybe Dorit is renting/returning all those expensive clothes and bags.
I don’t know about the west coast, but rats are everywhere in Georgia, lots in the ghetto, but also in the McMansion areas too. You have to take steps to keep your house sealed up all year, Tis the season and I’m already nervous I’ve sealed all the entry points and purchases thos plugs with sounds that we can’t hear but rats hate. Haven’t seen any sign of them in quite some time.
We should maybe wait till the episode airs. Maybe the housekeeper was wrong????However, in general the palm trees are magnets for rats.
Chiming in from California’s Central Valley. My subdivision is surrounded by agriculture (almond trees, mostly) and, yes, rats are at times a problem. Especially when they are pulling out old trees and replanting. Yuck.
I live in a very nice part of San Antonio and rats are here too. Where there are humans there will always be rats. We have roof rats here as well and you can watch them run along the power lines at night jumping from roof to roof. Has nothing to do with economic standards
Yes, I grew up in Silicon Valley and we had them. I now live in a very nice part of SoCal, and we have rats here, too. The ones here have been in the garden and our garage but not in the house. It seem they got worse as the drought worsened – they got bolder as they sought food and water.
I’m chiming in very late in this discussion, but I have a bit of experience with “rats” in Cali and Florida. My sister lives in Phoenix and they experience the same issues. Although they’re called rats, warm weather rodents are usually smaller (anywhere from 4 to 6 inches). They typically feed off fruit trees and live in palm trees, hence the reason they’re called palm rats in Florida. Warm weather climates allow for indoor/outdoor living which means sliders are often left open for hours on end and even into the evening hours. Rodents can and do sneak into homes. Chances are Rinna’s friendly rodent snuggled up to her warm stove and left a move in notice for the family. No doubt she’s got a problem on her hands and needs to do a better job of buttoning up the house at night, or she’s got holes in the foundation or soffits that need to be sealed. After hurricane Irma a ton of trees in our neighborhood were uprooted, blown away or hacked down after the storm due to heavy damage. For the first few months the entire neighborhood was experiencing increased rodent activity, noises on rooftops and in gutters from the gross little rodents being displaced. We knew they were looking for new homes so we called in the pest control service and had him make sure there was no way any of them could get into our home. Things are just beginning to calm down now. I’m not sure where they’ve all gone, but I haven’t heard them running in my gutters lately. Anyone whose dealt with this nuisance knows that’s a really good thing. Ha. ha.
Rats are an issue in the NYC suburbs. We had to get a cat when the city put all the utilities underground and disrupted the rats. They never got into the house.
We have a vacation “shack” on a lake that sits empty for long periods. No basement and Critters definitely get in there. Mice got into the stove and we had to throw it out. Mice or rat poop in a stove reeks. You can’t get the smell out. I go to great lengths to protect the new stove. Mice don’t like steel wool.
I don’t understand why no one says anything when Dorit is making snide comments about Rinna, especially since Rinna can obviously hear her. The first episode was full of Dorit’s stupid little swipes that were completely unnecessary and very very rude.
Wait someone said Ken is older. I just looked him up, says he is only 60. Born in 57
Could that be right? That has to be wrong.
Lisa threw him a 70th birthday party a few seasons ago
It’s probably the wrong Ken, the soccer player.
Production are starting the manipulation early these days, aren’t they? Poor little Jagger has only just learned to speak, and they’re already feeding him lines. He probably wishes he was still mute.
I welled up watching Teddi talk about her experience with IVF. We adopted my oldest son, but we wanted to try the IVF/surrogacy for our second and for a long time I felt like it was the worst thing we ever did. We went through two early-stage miscarriages and then finally our surrogate got pregnant with twins, and one of them was stillborn. We were so grateful to have our boy (Mylo) at the end of it, but it was a horrible journey to get there, and I’d never do it again. I didn’t bring God into it like Teddi and her husband were doing last night, but I definitely questioned if all that science is really making things easier or not.
I’m warming to Teddi more and more. She seems pretty independently minded (although both she and her husband seem to have decided that getting close to Vanderpump is vital – I notice Edwin didn’t tell any of the other ‘Wives how beautiful they looked), she’s down-to-earth, she seems like a great mom who is really determined not to repeat her parents’ mistakes, and she clearly has the measure of Dorit and PK.
Speaking of PK, is it Bubba or Blubba that Dorit is calling him? Hard to tell with that accent….
The preview of Dorit going after Queen Camille was a good demonstration of her stupidity. First of all, trying to mimic Kyle’s “you’re such a fucking liar, Camille” moment has been done and done and done again – get a new muse. Secondly, the current-model CamilleBot has been perfected to the point of complete blandness. It is ill-equipped to fight back, and Dorit might as well pick a fight with a block of cheese because she’d get a bigger reaction. YAWN.
I love everything about this comment.
LMAO Great comment. Haters gonna hate, but Lisa Vanderpump is a nice smart lady. Dorit is as phony as it gets, and Rinna is a fake backstabber. I can’t wait to see more of Teddi this season. She seems smart and selfassured.
Exactly.
Now I want to see the CamilleBot meet the TomSandovalBot. (aka Edwin)
That’s a good point about Edwin only complimenting LVP. I had interpreted it as him immediately recognizing her as an older woman so more needy of the compliment. Some men will compliment an older woman’s looks as a nice gesture, where he doesn’t feel he needs to compliment a younger woman’s and that it would even read as rude to compliment a younger woman.
Most wives don’t want their husbands telling attractive women they are beautiful, but if it’s a grandmotherly type, then fine.
Ha! It’s just more proof than LVP looks older than the other ladies to the new guy.
I don’t know but Dorit really looks like a cheap prostitute this season. Her birthday outfit was just hideous.
I know this is going to get a lot of panties spinning into the atmosphere, but I just can’t get over how selfish the Christian mentality is; this omnipotent being of limitless sight and wisdom would supposedly punish a newborn baby?? “OooOoOoo I’m going to punish this little innocent baby for life because instead of you two rubbing your sex organs together, you went to a medical specialist, OooOoOooo”
I would have consoled Teddi by telling her that God gave us free will. We can choose when to have a baby or not through free will. Father Spitzer on the Catholic tv network (Eternal World) says that we are not pre-programmed robots acting out God’s pre-planned script.
I felt like Teddi was prompted to tell Erika she felt dismissed by her in Vegas. It fell pretty flat for the most part. I was glad about that because I don’t want her to be one of “those” people.
Or maybe she did feel that way and just wanted to share it and move on so it didn’t become an issue?
I felt so too. She didn’t seem especially bothered and it didn’t look like a big deal from what we saw. Typical Bravo shit-stirring to see what might stick.
TT, I’ve read Brian Moylan over the years and his writing always sends me back to 10th Grade Honors English class–he makes me feel like I’m doing homework and I have to be ready to connect to some obscure reference or study his new take on an old word. You provide entertainment, information and insight without the angst or extra effort.
The Kyle segment annoyed me…. why were we seeing her in house with the renovations happening when she supposedly left Vegas early to go on her Croatia trip and was in Croatia skyping Rinna.
Fucked up production timelines piss me off and make me believe (even more so) that they chop and cut film to make it feel that drama is happening when it’s not.
From watching this episode, as a viewer, it feels that the ‘partners dinner’ with the over priced plates was after Dorits birthday and her make up with Rinna and that’s why them slagging off Rinna is so bad…. but was it really? Was the dinner before the birthday party where Peeekaaaay paraded the child out to his mother who acted like she hadn’t seen him in months…. we can’t trust anything we see!…
Didn’t Teddi say she was surprised to hear Dorit & PK trash Rinna after they made up in Vegas??
Ah she may have done, I was hoping someone may have been paying more attention than me lol!
I used to look forward to these housewives shows all these years, but I guess I’m clearly done w/these shit-shows. I just can’t seem to stay interested. TOO FAKE! Does anybody else seem to think they have run their course and are just about done!?
Pretty much the same Aunt Sis. I’m good for about seasons of Bravo shows, Bev Hills being an exception. And I flat out dislike andy.
ANDY ‘ S A PIG!!!!!

Brian Moylan’s a good choice to co-write Erika’s book, he’ll do a great job. Funny and insightful. I read his RHOBH recaps but the difference between him and TT is that I don’t seek out his writing during the off season – or other shows for that matter. I read here all the time
I saved this episode because sometimes after reading TT and crew I want to go back and look again. I won’t be doing that with this episode!
So far I have no problem w/Teddi, she seems like a swap for Eileen as far as temperament. That said, she’s no Eileen. Her IVF story is one that many women share with her. Women have their reasons for doing IVF, my sister being one of them. On that subject I make no judgements, my sister has a child that has major birth defects but is a very strong young lady and she is a GIFT to everyone who knows her!
The outfits for the horse show? I completely love that from meeting up at LVP’s (where, love this too, cleaning up goose poop) Dorit’s talking head is yapping about her perfect clothing selection in her perfectly f’d/u “accent.” Thoughts on that? Not joking here, maybe she had a speech problem as a child? If so I’d forgive her that and that alone. I get that same second hand discomfort someone else mentioned here, cringe worthy when she interacts with her children and PeeeKaaaay. And guess what? Suprise! Her clothing selection? Stupid.
Ooooh does Brian Moylan still write housewives recaps??? I used to love love LOVE him. When I was younger I was pretty sure we would end up getting married.
But alas I am now old and fat, and his trousers are too short. Shame.
Versace plates are just the right amount of tacky. Give.
I asked the waiter if they would sell me the plate. This was one of the only reasons I felt a bit shunned as the only straight person on the property. I also believe the half nekkid gay orgy in the elevator was for my benefit. Then they go really nice to me when my really hot date arrived.
Bwahahahaha! Gays are awful. My ex had Versace dinnerware. I had to pretend I was appalled and thought it was ghastly (because I’m classy AF, obv.) But I secretly LOVED it. I even considered putting up with his tiny penis for that dinnerware.
I lived and breathed horses for a long time, I know the difference between hunter, equitation and jumpers. Someone already said Teddi is riding as an amateur so the sale prices go up. Rich people can pay the six figures, but it’s a game, to sit their sprouts on a push button horse. I can’t afford to keep a horse in Cali, and lost interest when I saw a special snowflake flick a cigarette butt and tell her groom to pick it up. You did notice the groom, cleaning the hooves? The brown people groom the horses, braid the tail, pluck the mane, put on the saddle and bridle.
I thought that curious too. Why would you ride a horse you barely met in a competition? She’s that good apparently.
Were the plates Hermes or Versace? I am confused.
What ever happened to Kyle’s tv show about her life growing up? Where Alicia Silverstone was supposed to be playing her mom? I remember she talked about it in the first episode of last season and even said her sister Kathy was upset about it and not speaking to her. Did I miss it?
It got moved from TV Land to Spike, and then Spike changed into the Paramount Network. I guess all the buying and selling has delayed the premiere, but there’s 12 episodes in the can so I think we’ll see it early this year. The promo pics with Alicia Silverstone and Mena Suvari look very glam, 70s Disco vibe!
Two minor things I noticed at Dorit’s that bothered me.
1) The housekeeper had a tiny square of wadded up paper towel she was using to wipe down the new plates. AACk! Use some soap and hot water. Being brand new does not mean “clean”. They were handled and wrapped and who knows what.
2) Dorit served Edwin before Teddi. You should always serve the lady first.
Teddi goes on about how not-rich she was growing up, yet discusses 6-figure horses…umm, okay. As an equestrian (as in I get my own horse ready instead of the Mexican groom doing it, and actually ride outside of shows) I can say she is full of shit (she’s jumping 2’6″ fences in a HUNTER class LOL). Calling yourself a “professional” and then jumping ateeny baby hunter course on an automatic horse is just…no.
LM, i thought they same thing! “Ima pro, but I’m jumping kiddie fences!” I reeeeally want to like her. She’s the only life raft in sight for this show!!
Agreed. It wasn’t even a USEF recognized show (I looked up her show record), which is obvious since there were approximately three people there. I want to like her but the “horse pro” designation is just taking it too far…and don’t get me started on LVP’s opinion of herself as a horsewoman! Hahaha
Maybe these shows need to go away. The players are now just performing for the camera. Where is the real deal? I would NEVER cross LVP, period! She is pretty damn spectacular! Sorry, I know this is not popular. But , she has a great sense of humor, not taking any of this too seriously and politely, and oh so Englandie, laughing at us all. Dorit’s outfits alone are worth her place here and Erika should have her own show. Her comments on how she and her “gays” discourse was hilarious and oh so significant in her transition to girlfriends… LOVE her! How can you not love this woman? Rinna is desperate to stay around/relevent. I give the new girl a hot minute…not even learning her name. She needs to at least try and crack a smile and enjoy the ride…
Thanks for being you, Tamara. You are hilarious!! And I so enjoy your caustic observations…
