There was a whole lot of legal related things that happened this week. Most of it was relatively insignificant. But I thought I would try to run down the bits and pieces here.
Thomas Ravenel continues to sell stories to The Blast. I don’t know what has happened to that site lately but they have really gone downhill. The format has gotten really bad. Maybe it is just on laptops but when you get to the end of a article there is usually a comment box. Now the comment boxes appear randomly in the story and you think you have reached the end of the post but you haven’t.
Anyway, Thomas has given them around half a dozen stories this week. He claims Kathryn tested positive for marijuana last month. He seems to have paid off one of Kathryn’s ex-boyfriends to give statement to the courts saying she is a terrible mother. He has provided the most insane income and expense statements to the court I’ve ever seen. And then he apparently admitted to the court that he has had a private investigator on Kathryn for years. And admitted to taping her in her own home! What was the point of that? I can’t with the Thomas stupidity today.
Also the crazy prostitute is all over her social media accusing Patricia of encouraging the nanny to press charges on Thomas. I have already told you that Thomas is using the custody battle to depose witnesses for the criminal trial. His defense is that all of his victims got together to frame him. Allegedly.
Over in the OC Gina Kirschenheiter got a sweet plea deal on her DUI. No jail time, lots of probation and as small fine. There was also a six month alcohol course involved. She also worked out a deal where the kids could see Matt, but he must be supervised by one of his parents at all times.
More Teen Mom Drama
Jenelle Evans has blocked Nathan Griffith from all contact with Kaiser. Nathan was on TMZ talking about how he allowed all of her Facetime calls to Nathan when he had custody. She has blocked his number on her phone.
Dorit Kemsley had a bank account frozen today as part of the lawsuit against Paul Kemsley. The account had less than $30K.
Lisa Vanderpump claimed she didn’t watch RHOBH because she is in London for her mother’s funeral. Her mother over two weeks ago. Also she receives the episodes online a week before the episode airs. AND she was bitching online yesterday that they didn’t show enough of her ridiculous behavior at the Caesar’s food court in Vegas on the episode. She can’t keep her stories straight.
I have to get going on tonight’s numerous recaps. I just thought I would give y’all some talking ports as I am going to be typing ninety words a minute for the next three of four hours.
Ugh. Is there another person that can please take custody of those poor kids and just be done with it. Not sure either parent should have custody.
My Grandma who I loved with my entire heart died in May and she wasn’t buried until two weeks later because a lot our family reside in Seattle and had to make travel/work/life arrangements. Not sure why you are so hellbent on trashing LVP or how and when she deals with the deaths of family members. ?♀️
You do realize there are other blogs that are pro LVP you can read.
But I like this blog and don’t think TT only wants people who share her opinion on everything to comment, but thanks for the suggestion!
Correct. Differences of opinion make this site interesting. It does sting when Tamara comes after you like a raging lunatic, but that is the price we must pay for her snark.
Wasn’t trying to get rid of you at all. Just wanted to let you know lots of blogs are pro LVP and you might enjoy them when Beverly Hills is airing.
So sorry for your loss, Jen.
Thank you, Katherine. I wasn’t trying to bring the mood down in this thread, but there are no timelines or grieving procedures that come with sudden death.
Yes. When family must come in from points all over the world and there’s been a cremation, the date can be easily two weeks past the death.
A few years ago my husband’s aunt died, and since her husband is an Army Colonel and a war vet they have a plot at Arlington. You have to make an appointment to be buried and I think it took 5 weeks for the poor woman to get into the ground. She was in cold storage until then.
Same with my hubs dad. He was buried at Arlington as well. Took weeks… And my Gma died 2 days before the Northridge earthquake, and they sent her body to Northridge to be cremated. Her body was stuck under the ruins of a collapsed building for 3 weeks before we were able to get her! Long story short…Shit Happens…
Yeah, y’all are right. LVP’s mom was probably waiting to be buried in a national cemetary, or waiting for the non-existent family members to clear their schedule, or stuck in in ruins of a collapsed building.
That explains why LVP showed up to Kentucky to film with Lance Bass rather than taking care of arrangements in London. Thanks for clearing that up.
Why did Lisa have to be the one making the arrangements given that she doesn’t live in London?
Sorry. This particular diatribe seems odd. There’s a difference between the death of a parent one knows is in the offing and the suicide and therefore sudden death of a sibling. I get that you don’t like Lisa, but isn’t there any compassion at all for her life turning upside down in a matter of months? Plus, isn’t Lance Bass a long time friend of Lisa’s? Wanting to support and be closer to friends would seem like a no brainer.
So sorry for your lose JustJenn hugs ?
It’s not about how long it takes her to bury her mother. It’s about her lies. She’s LYING.
Lies? By a real housewife? Dear Lord I cant believe it. Not a single other HW has uttered an untruth ever! Stone her!
It happens. But I notice that you didnt mention all the other things TT mentioned, like talking about how they didnt show enough of the opening of the Vegas place last night, and then saying she hadn’t watched today.
The nitpicking about how long it takes to bury someone is beside the point. The point is that LVP said she didn’t watch the show and then commented on what happened on the show. She lied. She has done this on the show. I don’t know why there are so many people who are blind to this. And I’m not an LVP hater – I just have eyes and common sense.
Wondering if she just reads the blogs and recaps like I do. I havent watched a full episode all season.
She said on social media that her team (or something like that) watched it for her. Either scenario makes sense — that it’s too aggravating/embarrassing for her to handle watching first-hand, OR that she did watch it first-hand and just doesn’t want to admit it. Either one is slightly immature, but to be honest very relatable!
I’m going to TRY TO break this down to bullet points for some of you guys.
BEFORE THE EPISODE AIRED, LVP posted on social media that she was excited for her cult member to see her on the episode. BUT she was disappointed that they didn’t show that much of her ridiculous debacle. LVP watches the episode during the week before they air online in an ad-free screener.
Then AFTER THE EPISODE AIRED she said she had not seen the episode (Because she is in London) but that her dog sitters (AKA her partner in crime at VPD told her how nasty everyone was regarding her.
Nevermind, logic and common sense is clearly not enough to deprogram some of you.
Is Kathryn still required to have drug tests?
Nope but both Thomas and Kathryn were told to take a test. I believe that Thomas’ lawyer requested that. Thus giving Thomas time to get clean or buy urine in advance.
I went from amused to indifferent to disgusted with Thomas. Just yuk. He will never stop.
Of course the drug test was a set up to favor Thomas. I recently had an exchange with a couple visiting their son and his family out here in California from the New Jersey area. They were not like the New jersey folks we see on TV. They have a very large home with acreage near a golf course, sounded rural. For sale for under 2million. That’s background. I was intrigued on several areas, (yes I kept my mouth shut) their being devoted Republicans, thinking marijuana was similar to heroin. not knowing a drug isn’t a drug, and bad teeth. She was so uninformed about marijuana. I tried to explain pot, no I don’t use but absolutely support the legality, but realized I wasn’t getting through so let it go.
If there are people like this woman were Katheryn lives, she could be in trouble and not just the drug test, being unmarried will go against her. I’m always surprised there are so many judgmental closed minded people still out there.
I don’t even raise an eyebrow re MJ use. It’s interesting that there is really this disparity in views on marijuana still in this day. I realize not every state is on board with even medical marijuana but I do think it’s only a matter of time.
I really hope bravo opens their eyes with dorit and fire her! We do not want another Teresa G. Situation on our TV screens
I will really miss LVP’s house on RHOBH.
I will not miss her, that Caesars Palace mess was embarrassing to watch.
I do really like her on Vanderpump Rules.
Interesting about Dorit.
Where there’s smoke there is fire.
That scene from Caesars was ridiculous. LVP’s ego has gotten over the top.
This Caesars thing everyone is referring to…if it is her being carried in on that chaise thing by the men, its called an entrance people. Get over it.
And before I get called an LVP lover, yes, I like her. That dont mean Im blind to her faults, but to nitpick every little thing she does is getting old.
We had a work conference at Caesars and the vp was carted in the same way.
Thank you for that confirmation. Everything in Vegas is over the top because…Vegas.
Thanks for posting the first pic of Ashley. It’s one of my favs!
Wow it seems Thomas is trying everything he can to get out of these charges. I can’t believe he admitted to having a PI on Kathryn for years and taping her in her own home, is that legal? I sincerely hope he gets the book thrown at him. Kathryn needs to wake the f*ck up and get it together, I know she’s doing better but her kids are at stake and Thomas will pull every under handed thing he can to take those kids and stay out of jail…allegedly. Don’t want to get in trouble here. LVP just needs to go. Go far away.
Thomas is the person feeding the the stories to The Blast. So they are relying on him as their source. This makes trusting anything that is not a legal document difficult. The often just tell us what is in the document or show one page. A lot of it doesn’t make sense to me.
What’s your opinion on why he has seemingly changed his mouthpiece to The Blast?
Over here in UK we don’t have funerals straight away like you guys do in the states. 2 weeks is pretty quick especially if the funeral is in the GLA (Greater London Authority) as just to get the death registered and all the permits to release the person to the funeral home. Pretty morbid stuff but people from other countries are always shocked at how long the process is over here.
Funerals in the UK are typically around 2 weeks after someone passes.
LVP is a piss poor Spin-Doctor, she can’t remember her previous lies…. on the other topic in Ireland your buried within 48 hours.. barely bloody cold !
LVP’s restaurant is in Caesar’s Palace and that is how they roll out new businesses. She needs to just be quiet and not respond at all. The Ravenel kids would be better off being raised by a pack of wolves at this point. The good ole boy network is definitely in play there. I hope KD has a lawyer who plays golf with these judges. These things are usually settled on the course before it even goes to trial.
I think might be Katherine having “full-time” single mom fears to the max. I picked up a few comments here and there when she spoke of Thomas in past episodes. Having the kids 24/7 is overwhelming to most women without a weekend plus off. Nothing negative about Katherine either. She needs that friendwith expierence that tells her she can do this.
I don’t know the laws in SC but I’m in NJ. I know a lady whose husband is a convicted double murderer serving 25 to life for killing his parents. At the time of conviction the kids were 6, 4 and 3 months. For years this poor family had to fight in court so that the kids didn’t have to go visit their Dad in State Prison! NJ never gave the woman full custody she has joint with the now ex. The visit finally got stopped when the youngest turned 16 and filed to stop seeing his Dad. Sometimes courts suck!! I’m afraid when Ravenal is convicted those poor kids will still be ordered to visit Dad in the pen.
Tamara, I get such a laugh when you post that unflattering pic of Ashley. Here’s to being juvenile, ?
Oh I wish I had been petty when she first came on and her My Space or whatever account had all of her wonder whale photos. As a wonder whale myself, I opted not to. But after what she has done to intentionally harm so many people, I wish I would have downloaded them and saved them.
