I think after recapping these shows and listening to my trusted sources, I’m pretty good at determining which storylines are real and which are fake. Today I got a lot of tea from my favorite source and while it is all interesting and will be meted out in time, I was shocked by something my source probably thought would be a minor detail.
There is a couple on a reality show who seems to constantly be at odds over their marriage. I totally bought it hook, line and sinker and I think y’all did too! It’s fake news. It’s unclear why exactly they are doing it, I don’t think their cast mates even know it is fake. I suppose it is for more airtime (because, drama) but perhaps they think it is somehow good for business?
Ashely Darby and Michael from RHOP?
I agree with the Ashley and MIchael guess, especially after seeing Michael’s over the top behavior towards Karen and Ray on the reunion tonight.
Michael is uncharacteristically vocal and combative towards them–as if he is setting the foundation for a new storyline for next season. He and Ashley appear to have resolved their marital issues, so a new storyline will be needed. Maybe he will be the Australian version Peter for the Potomac show and become overly involved with the drama of the wives.
Tamara and Eddie
Tamara and Eddie are NOT constantly at odds over their marriage.
Gina from OC or Candace or Ashley on RHOP?
Gina just filed for divorce
Ashley and Michael or Elizabeth and JD?
No. I of course don’t know them but I think Elizabeth & JD are real. She tries to put on a show everything is ok actually. I believe he is actually so awful the people that spilled tea to the public held back, which is BAD. Saying held back re JD info and what went on in thier marriage due to him. Anyway, speculation. Could be wrong!
Ashley & Michael I’d say. For some reason I get a con artist vibe from him. Is the drama created to keep her happy, busy and appearance of bringing in income for thier lifestyle from the show so the marriage drama is made up or what?
Truth is none of the wives have perfect marriages. The divorces were telling also: Bethany. Shannon’s was a mess. Tamara was a mess to Simon. All three men are over emotional to begin with and these men are all likely at least narcissistic, so….A few stand out you can’t fake that shit but others…hmm…
What about one of the Married to Medicine couples?
My thought too!
Clearly it’s Apollo and Sherien. I for one bought into their love behind bars narrative hook, line and sinker. Todd and Peter must be shooketh!
You would need to be married in order to be “at odds with marriage.”
It was a joke *sighs and rolls eyes*
Okay, I think I’m getting the hang of this after-school special. Should anyone try to impugn my character with or without photographic evidence, I heretofore solemnly affirm avow and attest that; a) it was just for the storyline, b) I got a bad edit, c) I was suffering from exhaustion and dehydration, d) it was never my intention to cause harm, e) it wasn’t my PLATE, f) we were on a BREAK, g) because the plushie bear had bad vibrations; and h) you stole my HOUSE! Once said explanation has been delivered, I will throw back a 36 ounce Long Island Ice Tea in a single glorious gulp, and declare the following to my accuser, “Your spouse will never emotionally fulfill you. Know that.”
I love this
???
?????????????
THIS.IS.GREAT!!!!
I snort. (Not coke.)
I don’t quite understand the situation but the comment about her husband never fulfilling her needs was made to Kyle Richards by the crazy psychic lady at a dinner party.
Simone and Cecil
I wanted to say Jim and Alexis Bellino since it came out they bought a house together in July, a month after he filed for divorce but they don’t have a reality show.
Elizabeth and JD is my guess
I really like this guess.
I hope it’s not Elizabeth and JD, because being filmed having a bad marriage (even if pretending) is not a good thing to do when you have kids, which they do. I don’t think there’s any way she would be faking such a thing.
My first thought was Elizabeth and jd until you brought up the kids. I dont see Elizabeth making up a storyline as it would hurt the kids too much. 🙁
Ashley and Michael. RHOP
How about Quad and Dr Greg on Married to Medicine. It was their entire storyline.
They are getting divorced….
Ashley and Michael on Potomac. They love traveling together. Never bought her baby storyline. When you marry a guy that much older and already has kids, then you don’t want them yourself.
Yes!! I’ve been saying the same thing too!! In the alternative, I also said Ashley shouldn’t be surprised Michael didn’t want a baby because he’s old and has grown kids. He’s not trying to have a baby.
Hm what about Erika Jayne??
I like this guess. I don’t think they’re at odds but I think they’ve always had an arrangement.
my first guess:
Ne Ne leakes
my second guess
Peggy from RHOC (he divorced her and Peggy says they did get remarried)
Ashley and Michael
Reagan and Jeff ?
Reagan and Jeff?
This is a couple who shocked TT so the only couple I think are relatively solid is At least for the camera sake ( I forget her name) married to medicine the Dentist and her husband the doctor… Or MJ and Tommy.
Kuren & Uncle Ben…supposedly hubby is moving to FL with or without the “loaded” bich?! Lol
Maybe I read that backwards…. So on the shows they seem at odds but in real life they’re not? I don’t even know who to begin they all seem to dislike each other.
OC Kelly and Michael?
Are they faking a breakup?
Ashley & Michael.
I’m looking forward to seeing why he was crying at the reunion. I hope it’s because he’s sorry for the disrespectful things he said about Ashley’s Mom. Or for speculating into Karen & Ray’s finances.
Karen & Ray. She had no other storyline and needed to stay relevant with a “watch what happens” hook for being invited back for another season. Plus she is “starting a perfume line”
Quad & her hubby in the running….
The “perhaps it’s good for business” line at the end of TT’s post leads those to believe Ashley and Michael, but really? How many patrons would visit a restaurant for that? Although,,,I could be mistaken!
I’m think’n Karen & Ray too. IRS can make people do crazy things!
The subject of who this blind is about isn’t even that important. What’s REALLY intriguing is the dynamic you have with your source. It’s funny to think about them finding certain pieces of information being non-important where as a good blogger like you are able to pinpoint the REAL stories! Thank you TT for this one!
Just for the sake of guessing, I’m saying Ashley and Michael from RHOP. I actually like Ashley despite her shit stirring ways this past season. I see some similarities between her and myself irl.
Ashley and Michael are strong contenders but I would be SHOCKED if it was OC Kelly and Michael, so my money is on them.
But then TT mentioned business, which makes me think Karen and Ray…..
Ashley and Michael could think it’s good for the restaurant, because people would go to get a glimpse of them.
I’m liking them for this blind, because I always wondered why Michael was willing to film such intimate conversations about family planning and prenups if he was so checked out of the relationship.
Are we forgetting Thomas and #hiashley????
Kandy and todd
Long shot, but considering he’s the perfect villain, especially lately… what about Jason and Bethenny? She is the most business minded person on bravo
Reagan and Jeff Charleston on Southern Charm New Orleans. She’s been shamelessly trying so hard to push that jewelry line from day one. Plus they announced their split right after the finale. Very suspect in trying to negotiate a second season.
