Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: The Proof Hurts

March 12, 2019 by tamaratattles 147 Comments

Lisa Vanderpump talking head black lace dressGather round ladies and gentleman, it’s time for another episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills  #PuppyGate starring Lisa Vanderpump as the wrongfully accused villain. Tonight, Ken Todd once again inserts himself in women’s business by demanding texts of one of his employee’s private conversations. Because, that’s perfectly normal and legal right? Wrong. Rest assured that we will see even more evidence from Lisa Vanderpump’s intended stooge, Teddi Mellencamp, before all the chips have landed.

Until then, I think the Lisa Vanderpump fans will enjoy this post. I’ll be glad when she has her full on hissy fit and locks herself up with her swans. Perhaps then we can move on to other topics. 

Kyle Richards black and white striped jacked white shirt big smileKyle Richards

Mauricio and Kyle are getting ready to take Sophia off to college at George Washington University. The amount of advertising for this university is kind of unprecedented. Good for their PR team! Kyle and Sophia are both crying before they get in the car to go to the airport. It’s sweet.

When they see the dorm room, it is of course quite bare. Kyle is itching to shop for all the stuff to spruce it up and make it homey. Farrah and Portia are there too. The whole family goes out to dinner where Sophia gets a financial lecture. She is only to use her debit card and the credit card is only for emergencies. Kyle says Sophia is the most high maintenance kid she has. I love how well-behaved all of Kyle’s kids are. Portia, who is a bit of a wild child, has perfect table manners and seems to know when to behave.

At their final meal, everyone cries. Porsha is adorable when she cries about her sister going to college.

Lisa Rinna ball cap and palm treesLisa Rinna

Denise Richards and Lisa Rinna go for a hike and chat a bit about the Bahamas. Denise loves Erika. She says she is so funny. We rarely get to see funny Erika Jayne anymore. I hope we get fun Erika Jayne back once Lisa Vanderpump runs for the hills. Denise says she also enjoyed getting a massage with Lisa Vanderpump. Denise tells Rinna she and Aaron Phypers are getting married soon.

Lisa Rinna has a cover shoot for CVLUX magazine that requires her to fake garden. Rinna takes STUNNING photos. She really is beautiful. Thirty-one years in the business makes Rinna a pro at this.

Dorit Kemsley

Dorit and Paul Kemsley have a chat about Lisa Vanderpump. LVP apparently ignored Paul’s birthday and she has never done that. Paul says that Lisa Vanderpump is “a genius at manipulation and control. She’s the best in the world at it.” This is from someone who would know. They were both in the same nefarious situations together back in London decades ago. Dorit and Paul both say someone is lying. Well, they are two somebodies who are lying. But, Lisa Vanderpump’s failure to manipulate Teddi Mellencamp has taken the focus of their lies and shone a bright light on her own lies instead.

In Case You Missed It! Lisa Vanderpump’s Blog is Textbook Prevarication! 

Erika Girardi

It is Teddi Mellencamp’s virgin visit to Casa Girardi. Erika has made snacks she knows Teddi will never touch. But, you have to offer something to guests anyway. Teddi Mellencamp quickly gets a plug in for her workout video that is coming soon you guys!

Erika Girardi leads Teddi to the chapel. That way Teddi can confess her sins to Erika. These two are glad to truly be friends with each other now. Teddi’s confession to Erika includes some sins of omission. When the news of #PuppyGate was first told to her, she was fine with letting Kyle Richards in on the situation by bringing it up at Vanderpump Dogs.  Erika’s talking head in the hideous wig indicates that she is not really ready to be Teddi’s friend. Tread lightly there, Teddi!

Teddi Mellencamp

Erika Jayne and Dorit join Teddi to go horseback riding. Clearly, Kyle can’t come because she nearly died from horseback riding in Berlin last year.  The girls take the horses to the bar. These three are having a great time. They are having normal girl chat about their spouses. It’s so refreshing and interesting. Erika says for the first fifteens she lived Tom Girardi’s life. Now she is living Erika Jayne’s life. Tom is accepting of both. I’m so happy to have an LVP-free conversation I could cry! I hope we get lots more of these this season!

Denise Richards

What do we think of Aaron Phypers? He seems a bit off to me. Lord knows, Denise doesn’t have great taste in men. Aaron’s divorce is final and he is ready to plan the wedding. They decide to get married in September 8th. Aaron is into numbers but doesn’t seem to be able to add.

Lisa Vanderpump

Our on the veranda of Villa Rosa, Lisa Vanderpump awaits her butler to arrive toting Giggy. When she doesn’t need a cup of tea, he and Giggy take a seat. The occasion for this scene is a trial for John Blizzard. He must answer for his texts with Teddi Mellencamp. (See Texts here) Ken takes Giggy and leaves LVP alone with her prey. John back pedals and says he put words in LVP’s mouth and he shouldn’t have. He apologizes. He also looks like he may have crapped his pants.

Later, Dorit Kemsley and Kyle Richards head over to luncheon with Lisa Vanderpump. The premise is to clear the air. However, it is really an ambush. And there won’t be any lunch served. They were lucky to get a glass of rosé. Kyle Richards actually had to ask for wine. Bethenny Frankel would have had one bottle in the ice bucket and a couple more sitting our for the camera. Instead we get a commercial for the giant wine glasses.

Lisa Vanderpump Attempts To Clear Her Name

Lisa Vanderpump immediately restates her innocence. She goes right for Teddi Mellencamp. She says Teddi said, “Have the dog there, and I can say it’s Dorit’s dog.” Kyle seems prepared for this text recitation. Kyle defends Teddi and tells LVP it isn’t fair to lay all the blame on Teddi when she was not alone in the situation. Ah, Kyle has seen the text messages. Once again, another “gotcha moment” by Lisa Vanderpump has been foiled. Now that LVP has gotten John Blizzard to say on camera that he put the words in he mouth on her text to Teddi, she feels confident saying that she had no idea about John Blizzard telling Teddi Mellencamp to identify Lucy, Lucy, Apple Juicy as Dorit’s dog during filming.

There is only one problem with this lie. Dorit Kemsley is sitting right there. LVP called Dorit and told her that John Blizzard and Teddi Mellencamp had discussed the dog situation. She even told Dorit that again at a dinner that was filmed. Lisa Vanderpump really is slipping. Yet somehow she thinks she is winning and Dorit is buying her bullshit.

Next week: Teddi tells the whole truth to Dorit. LVP has dinner with Denise and her future groom. I’m not sure what Erika Jayne is doing taking photos of girls in ill-fitting bikinis but it has to be more interesting than Puppy Gate.

    What a timely episode Given the news today about celebs and the powerful buying their kids way into prominent colleges. Emerson and GW are elite private collleges. Just sayin’

    Having grown up in the 80s I remember all the media coverage of Brooke Shields going to Princeton. It was assumed that she had good grades because you couldn’t really have anything but when your parents are paying a tutor to get you a high school diploma and get you into college.

    It always amused me that no child of a celebrity or politician ever went to a public college. If they did I never heard about it. What are the odds that they were all admitted fairly?

    Some people are saying the kids had no idea. Bullshit. Aunt Becky’s little darlings were put through as members of the crew team. In my experience you are grouped in the dorms by athletics and majors. Are you telling me these kids didn’t notice they were lumped in with a group that makes no sense? Also were the student advisors in on it? They had to see these things that made no sense.

    Disgusting display of unearned privilege.

      LVP’s machinations really have nothing to do with the dog herself, it was that she was using it as an opportunity. Sure, Dorit gave her that opportunity, but if it wasn’t a Puppygate, it would have been something else down the line.

      Dorit was stupid to get a second dog. Vanderpump Dogs was stupid to give her another one. What Dorit did with the dog would have pissed me off. The difference? I would have told my friends after the first dog that maybe the timing isn’t right for your young children to have a dog and I would have bought them a goldfish. If I had been stupid enough to give them the second dog and they gave it away? I would have been angry and I would have EXPRESSED THAT ANGER. I wouldn’t have told them it was OK…. because it wasn’t.

      i also wouldn’t have passively aggressively tried to punish them through other people either.

      Yep she (Dorit) deserves to be roasted for how this all went down and she would have been if LVP didn’t pull the same crap she pulls each season. Most of the cast seem ready for her (LVP) to have a comeuppance and some seem to have been waiting for it for several seasons. I don’t think it’s ever going to matter that Dorit is to blame, she’s just benefiting from not being the most desired target this season and more power to her grifting ass for running with it. I think the reason why LVP does it, (same MO of targeting a cast member that has displeased her in some fashion without doing so directly each season) is because she’s gotten what she’s wanted from it each year and the only thing that seems different is production isn’t pleased with her for whatever reason.

      I suspect that Dorit and PK went along with this because LVP asked them to, in order to hype her new show about VP Dogs. But then she flipped the script to make them look like (even more) assholes. I think this is why Dorit (so far) has not gone for LVP’s throat.

      I honestly think LVP is THAT conniving.

      Another interesting tidbit Lisa dropped in her blog is the initial report on Lucy from the pound said “Reality Star (DORIT?) drops off dog?” Is that was Lisa really thinks? She flat said that’s what the report said. Dorit didn’t even have a name of who she gave the dog to. I don’t know how she knew they had a “beautiful home” when she didn’t know them from Adam!
      Either way-this wouldn’t have happened if Dorit would’ve acted appropriately. She never answered about how Lucy was doing. They kept her when she was spayed. She NEVER mentioned biting. Something is weird. This season is going to stink!

        Gucci has been crap since Tom Ford left. Those hideous tracksuits that Erica wears are a perfect example of how far ithe brand has fallen. Poor Erica is a fashion victim, she often looks ridiculous in those getups.These glam squads these women have remind me that in another age they would’ve traveled with ladies maids And various other lackeys.

        I guess that 15 million that Tom owes is preventing Erica from getting the doorbell fixed or the tile around her pool replaced. If I was a gambling woman I’d bet that if it comes down to the glam squad or House maintenance, that house will crumblie into ruin before she gives up the guy that slathers her lipstick on.

He can’t be that good of an actor. I think she dupes him and has him wrapped around her little finger. Look at the things she was saying to him just in that scene and playing up the victim shtick. He buys her bullshit, and she lets him think he’s rescuing her. He’s the most brainwashed and manipulated one of them all.

        After so many decades of working it, no wonder they have their good cop/bad cop schtick down solid. That’s Ken’s purpose for being on the show — to be the crusty one so she can play the benevolent one. We’ve seen it for years now. I think it’s because he’s delighted he doesn’t have to be her target.

      I’ve never liked ken! He’s the absolute worst! He doesn’t get along or hang out with the other husbands and always inserts himself into the female drama. He just comes across as a grumpy old man who spends time carrying ugly ass dogs around in arms. I’ll never forget the time in one of the first seasons when he was at a party hosted by the Maloofs and he had Jiggy in his lap at the table and he had Jiggy drinking out of the super expensive wine glasses. I couldn’t get over how classless that was. And in the first episode of this season when showing the montage of him yelling at Kyle while pointing his finger in her face….fuck that! He’s lucky that wasn’t me and he wouldn’t dare have the balls to do it in front of Mauricio. Can’t stand this old man with his ugly face and that god awful hair.

        I am so happy to know I’m not the only one who feels that way about Ken. When the show first started, I used to think it was a TINY bit endearing how quickly jumped to the defense of his wife (who I now clearly see is pretty much indefensible – can’t stand her constant mind game-playing with the other cast members – she really does seem to single one out every season to manipulate . So sorry, Teddi, it appears it’s your turn thus far this season). Now, Ken just makes me as angry as he looks. I’m sorry, but just because you love your wife doesn’t mean she’s a perfect angel and every once in awhile, it would be nice to see Ken calling her out on her shit – yeah, I know that’s not going to happen ever, but a girl can dream. Can’t wait for LVP to go on her “strike” and stop filming with the rest of the cast, so hopefully, some fun times can still be had on the show – I think all the RH shows are getting old, tired out, and incredibly boring and either come up with entirely new casts or just phase all of them out – snooze fests all around.

          What annoys me about Ken, and this is awful to say, is his hypocrisy. He is totally against any relationships where the woman is the older one, and acts like that is disgusting and the man is gonna really regret it, and he shudders at the thought of still being with his first wife. And here he is the doddering old husband, but of course his wife is perfectly fine and missing nothing. Ha ha. Ive never envied LVP marriage like some say they do.

      Well the calling Teddi Teddybear was in the initial phase, when LVP was all “darling” and love bombing her. But then she always moves on to the “needling” phase, where she employs her biting British humour, and then should her target show hurt feelings, she pooh-poohs them by admonishing them for being over sensitive. Then comes the final phase — open criticism and a sprinkling of clever but pointedly hurtful things into every conversation until the target becomes defensive and withdraws..

        The needling phase only comes after they’ve done something to annoy her. In this instance, she’s annoyed Teddi is closer to Kyle. What is with LVP and Kyle and their weird competition over other women that are friends? First it was Taylor, then it was Brandi, then Dorit and Teddi. They’re so fucking weird.

    LVP knew Teddy knew when she came to the dog store and started asking about it. No one set Teddy up. Teddy hated Dorit and was gleeful to bash her. When Rinna got involved Teddy thought uh oh this boat is sinking. I’d better bail. Whether LVP said to her minions tell teddy is immaterial. Teddy is an adult. She was no more manipulated than Rinna was manipulated to tell everyone people were telling her about Munchausen. Next thing you know Kim will be telling her LVP has been telling her how lovely the Beverly Hills Hotel is when your feeling out of sorts a/k/a drunk. If LVP likes the crappy things you do that doesn’t mean she manipulated you into doing it. Apparently if Teddy jumps off a bridge she will wail that one of LVPs 400 employees told her to.

      Dexter you are correct. Lvp hates that Teddy did this because it has caused a rift between LVP and her friends. Everyone in this cast has been a manipulator. Teddy is the one who shot herself in the foot, several times, by lying. This is a bore, I think because this dog incident played itself out and was revealed to the public months ago, no one really cares. It was just further proof that Dorit is a wholly dislikable person. Tonight on WWHL Kyle doubles down on her hatred of LVP, Cohen, Thom Felicia and Cohen’s dog trainer are all clearly disgusted by Dorit, who Thom says he knew before she had an accent, and the poll went in lvp’s favor. This is looking so bad for those who are defending Dorit and her awful behavior.

      Whilst I don’t think LVP is entirely innocent and does play the game, like the rest of them [ummm what was Erika’s talking head about???? And when is the sit-down teased where she’s goes for Teddi and Kyle??] Teddi’s blog is looking for tits on an ant and clearly I’ve watched this franchise for way too long to have drag that analogy into my everyday life.

      Teddi has a lot to lose by being involved in this stuff, she’s empire building.

      Round two of this crap is coming up soon though, huh? Who told Radar Online, right? So this is literally it for an entire season… gah. Thank god for the gals in New York City.

      It is so frustrating to know that there are such bigger issues going on behind the scenes and this is the one they’re most upset about and it comes down to semantics – Lisa rides the line impeccably and Teddi comes across as unhinged.

      I know people from Britain have said here on the blog that they get LVP’s one liners and perhaps it hasn’t been warmly received so bracing myself….,being an Australian I do too – rightly or wrongly, and depending on circles and generation and relationship, we do take the piss so I don’t see LVP as this great mastermind and at a time in her life, as reported, that her brother died, that she has multiple business things happening. This whole slipping thing? Girlfriend’s medicated.

      Does she work the narrative? Also-fucking-lutely but don’t they all?? Who wants to look bad? Are they competitive, ummm yeah it takes a certain kind of ego to be on a reality TV show. Teddi’s working the narrative now to save her and this exercise empire she’s building. How can that poolside thing not get shown? They keep out so much of themselves. I guess that’s the problem they’re facing with reality tv Vs the internet, it’s grown so much since Real Housewives started… the need to get real, is well…. real.

      I think that Teddi wanted to bring down Dorit and when the opportunity presented itself she went for it. But I do think that LVP was pissed at Dorit and made sure Teddi knew, this way Dorit could be bashed and LVP wouldn’t be involved. It believe that this was all discussed as a story line with the producers for this season. I don’t think Teddi had any discussions with LVP prior to the season, but that the producers did led Teddi to believe LVP would be involved.

      Then they are at Vanderpump dogs and Teddi moves forward with the plan. But LVP is not joining in like Teddi thought she was going to. Teddi proceeds in a confused way and LVP keeps trying to get out of it while passively discouraging the conversation, placing it all on Teddi.

      Dorit was terrible to an animal and is scum. Teddi wanted to get revenge on Dorit for last seasons nonsense. LVP wanted Dorit exposed as she is pissed about the dog.

      They are all guilty and are all annoying at this point. I never liked Dorit. I found Teddi to be highly questionable last season and LVP is a master manipulator. But out of the three I still like LVP best because as PK says (who would ever think I would agree with that turd) LVP is a master at what she does and you have to give her credit for her abilities. It moves the show along

      The way everyone tries to expose LVP just never works because no one is direct about their own role in it and the explanations are murky.

      Side Note: What is in Dorit’s hair in her sequined dress confessionals. When she moves it looks like she has a piece of jewelry in her hair that matches her dreadful earring.

    I adored the Umansky family scenes. I was laughing and crying with the “farewell” scenes. Another sign that Kyle and Maurico have done a great job? Farrah and Alexia didn’t really speak much – but they actually flew across country for a few days to see their sister off to college. I absolutely love that even with such an age range, those sisters are bonded.

    I too noticed the fantastic manners at dinner. Portia’s outfit was adorable – and clearly they did some shopping off camera, because Portia’s sweater was sporting the Washington National’s symbol. Kinda cute that they were getting into the DC vibe.

    I think DC would be a FANTASTIC college town to be in. Great public transportation, free museums EVERYWHERE, public events, etc. I love DC and am trying to figure out a reason to go back. Seriously, everyone should visit once in their life.

My little one will be devastated and there will tears galore. Finally seeing a scene that was somewhat relatable was refreshing after nothing but “puppy gate”. Granted we’ll certainly not be in a hotel like that by any means, but seeing real family time was nice. The three ladies going horseback riding was a fantastic departure too. They actually seemed to have real women chitchat about husbands. Anything but LVP and Pee-K bragging on one another for being the best at manipulating people!

If LVP even thinks this is a possiblilty, they are lucky they didn’t end up at Mulin! 😂. The rumor is going around, see if I misunderstood Lisa’s hint “A reality star dropped off the dog”. Dorit certainly had no idea who it was. Lisa said a home Check would’ve been immediate but Dorit NEVER MENTIONED BITING. ???

          Frankly, the fact that LVP was dropping hints about an unnamed “reality star” just bolsters my theory that LVP and Dorit originally conspired to do something to make LVP Dogs the headline. Because any publicity, even negative, is good for her business. And even a non-profit is a business.

          I am even more pissed off that LVP manipulates the viewers than that she manipulates her cast mates. I fucking hate that pink bitch. She is an image that doesn’t exist in reality.

    Dorit is the awful one most at fault here. At this point, I don’t think there was any woman who came to her house or any potential “good home.” She just took the dog to a shelter a ways away, stupidly thinking no one would know. I think what she did so angered Sessa and Blizzard, who devote their lives to saving dogs, that they were determined to expose her. Teddi and Blizzard are close, and Teddi saw a chance to reveal Dorit’s awfulness, so she went along with planning with Sessa and Blizzard (hence the texts). Possibly they told Teddi that Lisa wanted her to know because they wanted to keep Teddi involved, not fearing Lisa. And then Lisa Rinna gets wind of something and stirs up Teddi and everyone else, because she can’t stand LVP. Dorit and Rinna are the bad ones.

    I don’t see why everyone can’t just say Dorit was wrong to give the dog to a shelter instead of back to Vanderpump Dogs and be done with this. It’s certainly not worth ruining Kyle and LVP’s longstanding friendship over.

    I like Kyle, but Sophia seems pretty entitled to me. She doesn’t know toilets have to be cleaned?!?! She whines that she doesn’t have any good clothes?! She thinks she should have unlimited use of a credit card and debit card and says she doesn’t buy anything, after we already know she specially ordered a makeup mirror (and has plenty of very good clothes). She complains about the lighting in the dorm bathroom. I was not impressed with her. So many times it’s not an advantage for kids to be raised in wealth.

    Erika’s fashions and makeup are awful. So many times it’s not an advantage to have a glam squad.

    Aaron seems off to me too.

      It’s not about the dog. It’s about a pattern of manipulation by LVP– getting others to do her dirty work. It could have been any dumb ass scenario where LVP sets someone up, lies and plays innocent.

      Obviously, Dorit should have returned the dog to Vanderpump Dogs. That is not the point. LVP took that, ran with it and fell flat on her face. Dorit may be shady, but I don’t want her gone. I’d rather watch Dorit than Camille boring Grammer post season 1. And Dorit’s fashion is better than Erika’s.

    Yet, she finally admitted to the lie regarding “playing along” with the scheme of outing Dorit.
    BUT, she had second thoughts and decided not to follow through.
    Okay, but why keep repeating “I AM NOT A LIAR?” Instead of saying, because I was pissed at Dorit, I kind of liked the idea of outing her, but didn’t actually fulfill that order of business.
    Exactly what she told Ericka in the High Chap-R-EL`.
    Would have made life easier.

          Bethenny and LVP are polar opposites. Bethenny has been unflinchingly open, to her detriment. She doesn’t manufacture fake story lines. She is so real, she alienates a lot of viewers and doesn’t GAF.

          LVP, in contrast, has been careful NOT to expose much of her personal life on TV. Even the “story line” about Max looking for his birth mother had LVP in control, where she refused to give him his original name, and it didn’t go any further. And it was essentially Max’s story in the first place, not hers. (I’m an adoptee, so I have been in Max’s shoes. That story really pissed me off.)

        It’s true. I still like LVP. But I grade on the curve, and the truly nasty and useless waste of flesh women I’ve seen across the franchises has dulled me to anything short of who they are.

        None of them are role models. The best we can hope for is that they have some decency and are amusing, and Lisa is.

        This is, at its worst, about gossip and feigning innocence. That’s weekly fodder for all of them. The difference is the rest of them don’t usually glob onto it, ignore the sins of others involved. It’s a big ‘thing’ because these women act like a dog with a bone not letting go. At least the puppy seems to have nipped and released.

        I don’t know that it’s possible for Dorit to not deserve whatever she gets, in general. Not just for the dog.

    Teddi got wind of this through Hannah (adoption coordinator/brother’s fiancé) and gossiped with John Blizzard. Teddi ran with it because she doesn’t like Dorit, plus Dorit snubbed her a couple of times at off-season events and, yes, makes a good storyline. I don’t blame Teddi in a way because Dorit is the worst. Also Hannah’s name is mentioned by Blizzard on the texts about Hannah having receipts. Where is there any proof that Vanderpump did anything except try to shut it down? Google Ellen Degeneras dog shelter from 10 years ago and see why Vanderpump feels this way.

    Vanderpump used poor judgement letting the Kemsley’s adopt another dog. Being grifters, IMO they were pretty convincing that the first dog was a biter and convinced Vanderpump that they are dog lovers and wanted to adopt again. Why Sessa chose a puppy born at the shelter and incensed it was dumped at a shelter that had euthanasia facilities. Not all chips are found.

    I imagine Teddi told Kyle who told Rinna and concoucted to blame Vanderpump, since they have nothing going on in their lives to film. Rallying around Dorit is so ridiculous since they can’t stand her but hate even Vanderpump more due to her success, especially since Kyle has not had.

    Kyle’s family trip was hilarious. You’d think they were sending Sophia off to war by their performance. Farrah and Alexia were disgusted and embarrassed.

    Also since a poster here mentioned Munchausen, a poster on another site screen shot Rinna’s blog during that time stating she met with Kyle at a Shu restaurant to discuss Yo’s IG photos and Rinna telling Kyle what her hair stylist (Faye Woods) said about Munchausen. Rinna said I am the one who brought this topic to the girls. I have not, and will not pass blame about this within our group. I was the one to bring the “M” word up, not LVP, as Yo said at Kyle’s party.

    Tired of the ganging up and so are 99% of the RHOBH fans.

    Yaaaaawwwwwnnnn…..! not at your recap, TT, but at this nonsense, very boring story line. Andy C kept saying on his radio show last week that “really, the whole season is not about PuppyGate. There is SO MUCH more to come, and we are moving on from this storyline very soon” because he knows they are losing their audience over this snoozefest!

    oh, and on an somewhat related, gossipy side note, he also seems to be experiencing some type of post-partum depression, in my non-professional opinion…at the beginning of the week, when his co-host, John Hill, asked him how his weekend was, he lamented that he has the same old boring routine these days, but he does get to go out to eat on weekend nights around 7:30 right around the time Benny goes to sleep. And then he started talking about a list he was making of ALL the things he was having to miss now that he has the baby!? For starters, he was invited to Diana Ross’ fabulous birthday party in L.A. and he really, really, really wanted to go, and then he caught himself and made sure to say how blessed he was, lol. Oh, and he also mentioned on Monday that he hasn’t smoked pot around the baby – YET (he said that) – but he has taken lots of Chubba chews (no idea if that is the correct spelling – they are his marijuana gummies that he eats) Call me crazy, but in the early weeks after having a baby, your whole world is the baby and you just want to eat, sleep and breathe the baby. it is exhausting, and frustrating at times, but you don’t normally voice regrets over having the baby, but I sense that in the back of Andy’s mind – like, “WTF did I get myself into?”

    I’m not interested in puppygate to see it incessantly throughout the season like Brooks and cancer and all the other stupid shit in the other franchises. It’s Dorit’s fault. She was wrong. But I still like the show. Denise needs to get herself together. She looks unkempt and that guy does seem off. Way off. They’re uninteresting.

        I get those vibes too. He’s a bit off but we haven’t seen much of him so maybe he’ll turn out to be normal. I think I like Denise, lord only knows what hell she’s been/going through with her crazy ass ex. She’s definitely unpolished, can’t think of the right word, compared to the other housewives but that’s not always a bad thing. I’d think neither would be in a rush to get married given their pasts but whatever floats their boat.

          Beware a man who’s eager to tie the knot — call me cynical, but when a man wants to speed through the romance and courting part of the relationship, it doesn’t bode well for his behavior after the wedding. I’ll bet there’s a whole ‘nother guy that comes out once they’re married.

        I was wondering if she looked unkempt because she looks natural compared to the overly done other ladies or if it is standalone unkempt. She looked better during he jaunt with Rhinna. Still undecided. Not sure about Aaron, but Mauricio is STILL the hottest Real Househubby. And not just because of his gorgeous looks.

    I watched WWHL and Kyle says it ALL comes out next week. Nice to see Brandon McMillan weigh in on Puppygate AND Wacha with Baby Ben.

    The NON Puppygate scenes were a delight. THIS is why I watch. I was happy to see Kyle wearing my favorite earrings — the articulated diamond feathers. Either the thieves didn’t get them or she replaced. I thought the best-ever Mauricio moment was the hair curling. But it was when we saw how much he loves Kyle’s girls. They are truly his too.

    On WWHL, Kyle kept saying this was turning into a “murder mystery.” The REAL mystery to me is why no one talks about PoolChaseGate. LVP is slipping. When that fell into her lap, she could have turned it ALL around by pointing out that Dorit is a liar and grifter and shouldn’t be trusted. And how SHE wasn’t the only one fooled, etc. That could have deflected the Teddi stuff. Letting that opportunity slide is truly letting the tail wag the dog. LVP may be a master, but only when she has time to plot.

      Agree with your comments Nanette. Gosh, I hope some juicy comes out, because so far puppygate is thin gruel. Even if LVP put the whole thing in motion, at best Teddi shown herself to be down for it, until she realized she was going to cast as the backbiter. Meh. Teddi’s not that innocent11i! And Dorit is a manipulator and deadbeat regardless. I liked the rest of the episode though, but who decided to chop onions while I watched Kyle and Sophia, sniff sniff.

    Sheesh. Of all the times to choose to blow LVP out of the water, they pick puppygate. Seems to me (in the parallel RHOBC in my mind) that whatever favors had been repaid to PK, LVP was looking for a chance to get rid of Dorit — and now instead we’re stuck with her for the foreseeable future. Blech.

    To me this really boils down to – if you don’t want to be made to look bad, don’t behave badly. It’s really quite simple. It is a lot harder to make someone look bad if they aren’t doing anything questionable. I have never cared for Dorit, this just adds to the list. Unless there is some unforeseen plot twist ahead, where it is revealed Dorit was forced to give up the dog at gun point, and sworn to silence for the safety of her and her family, she made a choice. She is not a victim of anything other than maybe karma. Vanderpump Dogs should have never given a second dog to the Kemsleys. A puppy is a poor fit for a family with small children. Dorit should have brought the dog back to Vanderpump Dogs. Both parties are at fault in this situation. Shady. If there is nothing to hide or manipulate, why not go direct to the source with said receipts to discuss? Exactly. This has been dragged on for way too long this season. They need to move it on down the line. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

    Its shocking to me the number of people who still see Lisa V’s side of the story. Kyle made a great point last night asking her “how did you know to text Dorit that Teddi knew, if you don’t talk to the John’s?” and she couldn’t even answer the question. Lets also look at the fact TT has provided us on this season…
    8/17 – the ladies go to the Bahamas for filming, 8/29 – Kyle and Rinna on Ellen say the season is off to a great start – between 8/30 – 9/7 the text messages between John and Teddi get revealed – 9/8 Denise gets married and its the last time we see Lisa V with the cast – 9/11 the Radar Online story leaks three weeks after it was brought up in the Bahamas – at some point Kyle and Lisa V get into a huge fight – 9/17 Lisa V won’t take all cast photo and spends the rest of the season filming alone. It’s pretty clear Lisa V is very guilty in all of this

    Thanks for always doing a great job TT!

    Hi All, yes, TT, something off about Aaron … my thoughts too about the lack of funds & quick marriage. However, he seems decent in regards to his ease & openess to offer to be caretaker her nonverbal daughter (seems bad when I type that ?) when she went away. Perhaps he’s just not that deep. He’s very into his appearance & is attractive (in an LA kinda way) was married to another beautiful person rumored to be high maintenance. So perhaps it’s a good fit. Denise did say they had sex at his (chiropractor?) office quickly after they first met. She’s been a single mother for a long time & he’s a good lay who helps around the house. ??

Most everyone around here, those of us who are from the beach towns, run around in flip-flops, tank tops, and jeans, beach wear and are into casual. . Denise is just a beach chick. 25 miles south of where I live. She is from Oceanside Ca.

    Then Portia runs in for mummy, distraught. Most likely because everyone else is distraught. It’s now a learned behaviour. What are these girls gonna do when their boss is curt with them? Get a grip.

    She’s going to uni, not Doctors Without Borders. There ain’t no landmines or dengue in DC. Calm the fuck down.

    Sorry. Rant over. It just super annoyed me. I hate overemotional people for some reason. In my experience, 9 times out of 10 its either some kind of manipulation tactic, or an inability to express your feelings in words like the evolved monkeys we are.
