Blind Item: Bilo Isn’t Selling Groceries

February 5, 2018 by tamaratattles 44 Comments

Look, we all know that none of the ensemble casts knew each other from Adam when the first season started shooting. However, relationships form when people work together. Especially when they work together year after year on a show that gives us at least a small window into their lives. Just like any other workplace, sometimes romantic relationships develop. More commonly friendships develop and occasionally people get together in between filming seasons. It’s kind of like teaching. I had strong cliques at some schools I worked at and we would often go out every Friday after work. But when summer came, we rarely talked unless there was some major gossip going on and then the next fall, we’d pick up where we left off. It’s a lot like that with filming reality shows. After months of being tied down, people want to get the hell out of dodge and take vacations and hand out with their real friends.

And then there are the drama queens. Many shows have that one person who starts screaming about how they are not sure they can endure another season with their cast mates. There are people who get fired and go on social media ragers against their on camera enemies for weeks or months after they have been let go. 

Then there is that one show. For a while there, a season or two ago, this show looked like it didn’t have the ratings to return. At that time one female cast member single-handedly started a social media storm that sent rating through the roof just before the reunion. Websites everywhere were talking about the drama.  We’ve basically become immune to it at this point. That drama queen that saved the show has apparently given up her role as villain for the upcoming season and we will supposedly see a more mature and sophisticated woman when the show premieres.

However, this is one of the show with male drama queens. Drama kings? This one is outraged that his newly hired fair maiden to play the role of his love interest is being maligned on social media.  Here’s the thing, back when I got the exclusive on Kenya Moore’s elopement, I was reporting other things that got a bit overshadowed. One of those things was this young lady. So this is not news. This information was being discussed from the inception of the relationship when I was sent exclusive photos.

So it is very interesting to me why this male reality show participant is screaming from the mountain tops about it now, other than to drive up the ratings for the next season. The male reality show participant is doing more to advance the accusations than the party he claims to be so outraged about. Literally, no one would have known about the “bully” if he, and to some extent the young lady whose virtue is being questioned, would have just ignored it.

Instead, he keeps giving ammunition anyone he can coerce into attacking this alleged “bully.” At the same time he is accusing multiple cast members of befriending the “bully” and denouncing them publicly saying they were never friends. Thus the reason I covered the whole “friends” thing in the first paragraph.

The male reality show participant is well aware of the nature of his own relationship. All the histrionics are for ratings. Which is why it is basically being ignored by most of us.

Who is the male reality show participant? Who is the young damsel in distress? And most importantly, what’s up with the name of this blind item? Perhaps there are other clues on this site… if you can find them.

      No doubt about it #AshleyJacobs #ThomasRavenel BTW I started googling articles when she posted a picture from the Regent Beverly Wilshire saying
      I WANT THE FAIRYTALE

      I thought she was psychotic for posting comments someone wrote about being an escort on her own Instagram page. I chalked it up to lack of impulse control. But when I saw the Pretty Woman reference I thought she must be owning that she’s a working girl.

    TRav and his new girlfriend Ashley. He’s complaining about Patricia befriending some chick who has been running her instagram fan account. Pretty soon he will pretend to throw a fit and say he’s refusing to film the reunion and refusing to film next season. Because. Every. Year.

      I feel like I’ve seen that fan account around for a few years now- so why now is this woman psycho? Also, Ashley feeds the trolls on her IG account daily…she seems like a perfect fit for T Rav.

      TT: what about the latest Whitney rumors? Is this PR for the show or is someone really that pissed at him? It seems that anything that benefits T Rav and the Polo Nurse gets fed to the same places.

    Title of post: refers to Nebil Zarif, father of Brandon Davis, nicknamed “Bilo”, purveyor of LA hookers at polo hangouts.

    Reality Show Drama King: TRav
    His “girlfriend”: Ashley Jacobs
    Person “maligning” Ashley’s character: Luzanne Otte (who?) (exactly) – allegedly they overlapped in dating Thomas Ravenal last summer; allegedly she has been sending shitty texts and emails to Thomas claiming Ashley is a known gold digger / escort; apparently she is running the Carpetbagger’s “fan page” (ugh).

      Now we have finally seen the episode of SC where Carpetbagger was perfectly happy to take Ashley shopping with her prior to Halloween, we KNOW that Ashley is making all this up. Nothing else makes sense.

      Ashley’s accusations did not start up until early this year. At that stage she evidently latched onto some old messages from mid 2017 that Luzanne (friend of Carpetbagger and introduced to Thomas by Carpetbagger) seems to have unwisely sent Thomas (after their about 1 week long relationship).

      Ashley is belatedly accusing ANYONE who criticises her on social media or elsewhere of being Luzanne. It obviously suits her to pretend there is just one person who is not impressed with her. God, even Thomas in episode 5 said he had seen another side to Ashley and she is not always a sweet kind person.

      Ashley is even damaging Thomas’s reputation with all this (if that is actually possible). She is evidently desperate to secure the dream she saw across a bar one evening in polo-girlville in California. I must admit every time I look at the header on her Instagram about Caligirl living the dream in Charleston I mentally extend the first i in Caligirl.

        There are other sites that worship Ashley as this beautiful, sweet hospice RN, who will be so good for T-Rav and those kids. How the wicked Kathryn seduced him to cheat on her, and how horrible this new woman is. T-Rav did he while he was with Ashley as well. That’s twice now that he cheated on her. T-Rav hasn’t been loyal to anyone. He’ll keep going to back to Kathryn because in his warped world, she is the love of his life. Hopefully, Kathryn can not jump back into that pit again and keep working on staying clean and getting emotionally stronger. Pat and Whitney have never been T-Rav’s real friends. If they had, they would have encouraged him to stop partying like a college frat boy and put more time into his family. Instead of encouraging him to treat the mother of his children like shit. A mother who wasn’t all that emotionally stable. I see this as Karma coming around.

          I saw the 3rd season first then watched the first two…I mean Whitney’s advice on the campaign ad alone was not something a true friend would do! He and his mother are so pretentious. I was never big on Kathryn but she seems to be doing better than TRav tbh.

    Great summation TT.
    Ashley has taken down a lot of her photos and comments from the public at the time when she started dating Thomas. But the photos must still be around.

    Why would a hospice nurse put up so many photos of herself, falling out of very revealing clothes, draped over the back of yachts, leaning on extremely expensive cars, and other money pit icons – unless she was moonlighting as a call girl?

    About that time various men were commenting on her instagram she had asked them to buy her drinks in bars at the same time as she was being reported as dating Thomas.

    She certainly seemed to publish way more about herself being no angel than anyone else has.But she has a rather sickening habit of talking about blocking “haters” and praying for them, because of course she says she is a Christian.

    The problem for Thomas will be if he seriously thinks people in his old social set will buy Ashley’s protestations of piety, as her days as a hospice nurse go further and further into the rear vision mirror. Thomas and Ashley’s story is just not believable. And Pretty Woman was only a movie and unlikely to be replicated in real life. If they have really brought the FBI into their feud with the people they feel have outed Ashley they will be embarrassed.

    About the time Thomas moved Ashley to an apartment he paid for in Charleston area he tweeted something about having to trust in himself to come out of a new relationship ok. But now he is holed up in hotels with Ashley and the children, far from his home, and the family and old friends who could try to keep him grounded back in Charleston. He is evidently mentally under siege, with his instagram headed ALL HATERS WILL BE BLOCKED. All a bit pathetic for a grown up.

    I should say it really should not matter much if Ashley is a call girl as well as a sometime nurse. I personally think that a call girl partner would suit Thomas well. It is just the outrage of Thomas and Ashley that their carefully constructed fairytale romance has been questioned that is so amazing, given Ashley’s history.

    At first I thought Ashley was a good catch. Nice, down to earth nurse. Her old pictures before she revamped her look showed a fun loving bimbo. She moved to South Carolina showed she had nothing going on at home. No biggie. But then she never got a job but goes on about being a nurse and not being a god digger. So I figured she was a blond Katherine.

    But then she lost her damn mind all over social media. Call girl or not, how could anyone be so stupid as to publish a message where someone said that about her? It went from a private message that no one saw to public by her own doing. Why feed a rumour or verify the truth? To be honest it proved to me she had major impulse control problems.

    In the same way I don’t think it’s right to say she’s a call girl, what she and Thomas are accusing Patricia and her girlfriend’s outrageous. Every time a reasonable comment got posted they accused the person of being Patricia’s friend. Once the reasonable follower proved they were not the person their comment would get deleted, they’d get blocked or the whole post would get deleted.

    Let’s add their fake accounts that are fueling the fire. It’s literally 3 people trying to keep this going. Let’s not overlook the unethical blogger who executed a similar smear campaign of Katherine last year. Evil attracts evil! They obviously don’t have many friends because everyone knows what they’re doing and they think they’re pretty clever. Like, we know you’re posting all his stories and comments. Duh.

    We can’t know the truth but executing an assault of this nature proves Ashley’s white trash. Putting private business in public. Posting personal emails is never okay. To be honest I didn’t think Thomas and Patricia’s friend actually dated because Ashley’s stories kept changing and accusations doing flips depending on how many stimulants she ate for breakfast. The timeline doesn’t make sense. Plus the alleged fan girl who never posted or mentioned dating the guy? Like the rest of it just doesn’t add up. But since she’s so obviously insecure and jealous of Patricia’s friend to the point of presenting herself like a petty, thirsty ho and using a blog to continue the dirty work, I realised they probs did date. Hasn’t the poor woman suffered enough from dating Ravenel?

    I’d bet dollars to donuts Ashley acted like a psychopath all season. Now she’s trying to find a scapegoat. As if you can blame acting like a psychopath on anyone but yourself. I don’t think any of it’s Thomas because she’s posting for him. I think he’s just turning a blind eye and he’ll wake up with no friends when she leaves him for someone richer. I feel bad for him but then you can’t expect much from a woman in her line of work.

    BTW no relation here to Landon. Just a sad coincidence. And Landon’s the only person who’s still following Ashley? The WORST

I’m not intending to be rude to “Aw,” but there’s no sugar coating it. “Aw,” I’m going to go out on a limb and say that I highly doubt Bravo/Andy Cohen will take your very poor advice. Not even a miniscule amount of it. Your comments don’t make a lick of sense! The ratings do not lie. The Real Housewives franchise is a cash cow. Whether you prefer one over the other, they all do very well financially in TV Land.
