RHONY Reunion Recap Pt2 Caught In A Web Of Lies

July 18, 2019 by tamaratattles 120 Comments

RHONHY Reunion RecapTonight is Part Two of the RHONY Reunion Recap and the ax is about to fall on Ramona AND Tinsley. It looks like the left couch is going to have a fairly easy reunion and the right couch is not going to be happy.

We start tonight with Ramona. This will not end well for her. Ramona says that she has no plans for her relationship with Mario to go beyond friendship. Same with Harry Dubin. Ramona lied about making out with Harry Dubin. Ramona blames “dementia” for leaving Dorinda alone at the charity event in favor of a more upscale table of people. Dorinda want a Ramona apology. Why? She passes them out like tissue. Andy says, “Here’s another lie…” and asks about why she refused to allow the hostess to invite Sonja to her birthday party. Andy is going hard on Ramona, and I am here for it.

Riding The Ramonacoaster

Ramona does seem to regret the horrible comments that she made about Dennis. But Bethenny is not letting her off the hook that easily. She asks Ramona how she could come so hard for her given the year she was having with Dennis dying and the child custody case. Ramona just says she wasn’t thinking. Ramona says she is afraid of Bethenny. Apparently, the comments that Ramona made about Dennis after his death were voted the most vile thing Ramona has ever said on the Bravo website.

Andy says that Ramona’s charity debacle was utterly cringe worthy. Ramona made the entire event about her. Luann said she was horrified by Ramona’s self-centered behavior. Then, Dorinda comes for Luann and reminds her how self-centered she was in the Berkshires and how entitled and demanding she was while she was there. I agree with Dorinda, Luann is the last person who should be judging Ramona.

RHOBH Reunion RecapFrozen Dogs & Frozen Eggs

Andy asks Tinsley what she thinks about he women questioning her spending habits. She says she was raised that you don’t talk about money. Then she launches in to remind us she grew up rich in a big fancy house. Dorinda and Bethenny say that Tinsley can’t afford to live in that hotel. They say she moved out in January. She says she moved out for the winter and moved back in for another full year in May. They accuse her of having some sort of arrangement with Scott.  So what if she does?

Tinsley says her lifestyle has been the same her entire life. She says after she got arrested her money from her trust fund was reduced because they didn’t trust her not to get into more trouble. She came to New York and “lived with” Sonja for a few months because her mother didn’t want her living alone for awhile. It seems she is say in now she has her full income from the trust back. She does not have an arrangement with Scott. She has been on a trip with Scott but they are not back together. It didn’t work out.

RHOBH Reunion RecapPeccadilloes, Foibles & Eccentricities

From Sonja’s gas to Luann’s constant talking about her cabaret we deep dive into the oddities of the RHONY. Andy goes back to Ramona’s lies. Ramona discusses she wants to do everything other than be cut up to stay looking young.

It’s time to talk about Luann’s sobriety. I really hope they take it easy on her. She surrounded by drunks everywhere she goes. That’s enough to make anyone want to drink. I get how Luann feels about the girls not being a tiny bit more compassionate to her. I get she is being an entitled twat this season, but she is going through a lot.

RHONY Reunion Recap
What did I do?

Luann Discusses Her Relapse

Andy brings up that Luann did have a slip. She says she had two mimosas on Easter Sunday. I’m betting it was more than two. She had to blow into a breathalyzer three times a day and she failed on the first blow of the day. Luann says that she has been going to her meetings and doing all the things she was supposed to do. So she’s still in a bit of denial. Basically, the lawsuit with her kids and The Count broke her and she had a full on mental breakdown. Ramona is a total bitch. Who says the crap that comes out of her mouth to work friends on national TV? Then she tops it all off by saying that Luann is still drinking.

Next week, on what I hope is the last RHONY Reunion Recap of the season, our topics will include, Barbara tells Luanne she’s no Adele, Luann tells Barbara to shove it up her ass, Luann kisses Bethenny’s ass. Literally. Plus more of everyone arguing with Luann.

        The OGs are dropping… I know different production companies, but if Vicki can be demoted ANYONE can be. Also, I think that Vicki was doing the same thing over and over and over in terms of no accountability to things she would say to others (Her Im Jesus comlex). But she also showed us her relationships w boyfriends and daughter so it was worth keeping her on. But this new guy isn’t as fun to watch on TV. He’s dull.

        Tonight, Andy proved that Ramona is the same… she digs over and over and over, and in reunions is unanimously told she is wrong and she makes the same excuses. But now she won’t show us her personal life… Ramona, you in danger girl!

    What a bunch a hypocrites these nasty bitches are! Wow! Personally I like Luann. Yes she’s full of herself but who on the show isn’t? They all for the most part drink way too much especially Dorinda and Sonja. The hags on the left side of the couch going after Tinsley about her money… seriously it’s none of their business! Where do they get their money? Sonja is so jealous of Tinsley because she has money, she’s younger and she’s prettier. And now I’m defending Tinsley ugh. These ladies all need to thank Luann because without her this season they wouldn’t of had any thing to talk about. Thx for the awesome recap TT!

    Call me crazy, but I can at least believe Tinsley on the money. Her family appears to be genuinely loaded, and both Tinsley and Dale seem like the kinds of “socialites” who don’t mind blowing money on long-term hotel stays. As for Scott, who the hell knows! And at this point, I’ve given up trying to figure out what the hell is going on between them.

    As for Luann, it’s getting harder for me to believe her on anything. Sure, Ramona is rude as hell… But she may be onto something regarding Lu’s drinking. As the old saying goes, a broken clock can be correct twice a day. Lu still seems to be living in denial.

      I did the whole living in a hotel thing for awhile (it was an apartment in the St. Regis in a foreign country because of residency visa wait times and couldn’t get a place until the residency visa came in) and it is fabulous. I would totally pull a Tinsley and live in a hotel again except for my dog (the kids love it but dogs weren’t allowed).

      I agree!!! To totally believe Tinsley! Both her and her mother give off “old money” vibes. I don’t know why all the women are so concerned about Tinsley’s “coin” but I think they were out of line with all the questions and accusations. People with old money don’t feel the need to talk about money, only nouveau rich feel the need. But even if her funds happen to come from scott, WHO THE FUCK CARES?! All the other women married into money so it’s extremely hypocritical of them to even pretend that Tinsley is somehow in the wrong (if she even does have an arrangement with Scott). Not sure why they came for Tinsley so hard on this subject, jealousy?

        TY *MissRaider” ‘old money’ would never discuss what they have nor where they purchased this that and the other and how much it cost. It is a matter of good breeding and how you were taught growing up. I believe Tinsley and also ‘old money’ does NOT discuss their private life to anyone, therefore, she might not belong on the show.

      I absolutely believe Tinsley comes from old money. Her ex-husband is old money, grandson of Standard Oil. They met attending the same, elite, very expensive (annual tuition 50K) boarding school.

      Aside from that, she has a very successful handbag line in Japan, was a beauty ambassador for Dior, and even has her own shade of lipstick.

      Ironically enough, her net worth is higher than all of the women that are making the ‘kept woman’ accusations. She has the highest net worth of the entire NYC cast.

          Except not the same thing at all. In one instance a person is choosing to stay in a reality show, knowing alcohol and vacations, dinners and drama are involved and still chose to participate in the other instance a girl get groped because of something she is wearing, she didn’t choose to put herself in a place where men think they can grope you, she was born in to it. That’s the dumbest thing to even try and relate too.

            Why do millions of people stay in jobs that are unhealthy for them? Money. For some, simple survival, for others to maintain a certain lifestyle.
            As much as Lu may have wanted to bow out in favor of her sobriety, her story was the juiciest of the bunch, and Lu needed the cash.
            In true delusional style, Lu has on rose-colored glasses when it comes to self awareness. I don’t think she’ll change. That’s part of her charm and her repulsiveness.

      It can, but she is still responsible in how she reacts to it. She TOLD all of them that she didn’t mind and she didn’t want them to change around her, so drink away. She then DIDN’T tell them when she got into the situation and it supposedly bothered her. The responsibility is still hers. If Bethenny’s drink was bugging her she needed to stop the conversation and tell her “You know, I’m upset right now. On edge, and I need you to leave with the drink in your hand” and then she should have called her sponsor.

Ramona said at the last reunion Luann wasn’t sober, and she wasn’t. Then they said we knew she was drinking. This reunion Ramona says I don’t believe you are sober. I don’t think she is either.

      The focus on Luanns sobriety and Luanns legal problems came at a perfect time for dorinda to avoid taking accountability for her own drinking problem. Luann and Dorinda are much more similar than they are different.

      Why do the ladies care so much about where tinsleys money comes from? So what if Scott gives her money or pays her rent. It’s none of their business, especially given most of them are sitting on fortunes they’ve inherited from men in their lives also.

      My prediction for next season is that Bethennys relationship with Paul is going to get stronger and the ladies will be jealous and she will be on the outside. I also think Ramona won’t be asked back next season. And it matches the tea TT gave us about lowering the housewives median ages

          Carole was on some podcast where she repeated that production of RHONY made her share a room with Tinsley and then she repeated what she said at her last reunion that she and Tinsley were not friends. It was nasty to say then and even worse when she repeated it recently. Being the lady she is, when Tinsley was asked for a comment, she had none. Remaining classy while Carole continues to go low.

    This reunion was bland as hell. The gang up on Tinsley for being born with a silver spoon in her mouth reeks of envy. Sonia & Dorinda made the big bucks flat on their backs ( alledgedly) by marrying. Calling Tinsley out on her lineage is redundant. Lu is in for a much bigger fall from grace if she does not stay clean & sober. Sad to see her in denial I have always liked her. Ramona needs to be lobotomized. Next week they will all suddenly forgive each other when the opportunity arises to pummel Barbara. Conduct most unbecoming from my favorite cast. Not really looking forward to next season. Aside from Bethanny no one did anything worth watching or of merit this entire season. I also believe the I almost died card will be played by producers on all of tbe franchises. Production seems to always repeat themselves. Mark my words the real housewives of other cities will have similar near death experiences. God help us all.

      Since Luann stated that her probation period ends in August, one can expect her to get her drink on as soon as that happens. As long as she stays on this side of the law, she won’t get in any trouble except spiraling down.

    Just based on Lu’s one comment alone about how she has 3 months left to follow the rules and she’s free and clear – that worries me because I think she’s still in denial and once those restrictions are lifted, she’s going to feel like she can just go back to living like she always has, which potentially could mean drinking. I genuinely hope she is serious about her sobriety and I will be happy if she proves me wrong in my thinking. All along her sobriety journey, she just seems so entitled and in denial about her drinking. Fingers crossed she really gives up alcohol for good after the restrictions are lifted. Being on RHNY is not a sober-encouragement for anyone – maybe it’s not such a great idea for Lu to be on the show, but neither is the cabaret scene either. I honestly do not understand the appeal of her show either – she cannot sing – end of story. I guess I don’t find her all that entertaining either. (I wish the gals would all get off Tinsley’s back about her money – it’s no one’s business but hers if she does not want to discuss it – she’s a grown-up.) Ramona – please just shut the F up – you are a horrible person, full of love for no one but herself. I know Dorinda hasn’t been very popular the last couple of seasons, but I genuinely like her for some odd reason – I hope she finds someone someday who sweeps her off her feet – John is not it and she knows it. I’m happy Bethenney seems to be happy with her new love. I hope all the gals give Barbara some love and she gets more camera time next season, if she’s asked back – she seems really cool.

      Oh, Lu is my mother. Lu doesn’t believe she is an alcoholic, and she’s not sober. She’s biding her time until she’s no longer court-monitored. Then she’s going right back to it. I pray that I’m wrong, but I don’t think so. I’m so sad for her kids that I think something even worse is going to have to happen to her before she can even admit to herself that she is an alcoholic.

      I think Lu would have a better chance at achieving sobriety if she wasn’t on the show, and wasn’t doing cabaret, but that’s how she makes her living. She’s kind of stuck. I do feel sympathy for her on that. Being sober in those circumstances can be done, but I don’t think Lu is strong enough to do it. Most people would not be strong enough.

Bethenny of all people could have and should have, shown some empathy. Losing a pet is hard and she knows this! Rather than be nice she took the road of mean girl and attention grabber.

            Totally agree, Chelle. I don’t love Bethenny and was still surprised at the blatant hypocrisy. Losing a pet can make you demented with grief, especially in the short-term. Where was the compassion B kept touting when she was scolding Ramona. Bethenny treated Tinsley horribly all season because she envies her.

              Ditto what Zasu posted to Lavernica’s post. I thought it was horrible the way Bethenny acted when Tinsley lost her dog. Tinsley is just so innocent. She should have kept the entire dog passing to herself and not shared with the selfish bitches. Losing a pet is devastating. I find nothing wrong the way she handled the situation. Everyone grieves different and it is best to respect the way an individual chooses to.

          I do think its over the top to phone 911 over a dog dying but I’m not Tinsley. She looked distraught and in a blind panic that might have been the first thing she thought of doing. I don’t think it was nice of them to poke fun at her over that as she was clearly in a state of shock.

          As for the freezing. I’m wondering if its similar to a mortuary when the bodies are kept cold until they’re ready to be buried? Maybe viewing her dog before it was buried brought her comfort.

        Most of you know that I was rescued by Banjo after my house was broken into while I was in court supporting my sister during her divorce. It happened in broad daylight. So I went to the pound to get a big dog that barks a lot. I fell in love with Banjo. He was a big old puppy about 11 months old. The only problem with him was that he was UNBOTHERED. There was a row at the pound for all the pitbulls. They barked a lot. I walked Banjo down that row (I couldn’t believe I was allowed all alone with no supervision to take the dogs out of their crate. I was kind of afraid myself. Banjo didn’t bark. Well he is worthless I thought. I put him back in the crate and went home.

        I could not stop thinking about him being in a cage. I planned to let him live outside 24/7 and scare people away. ( I know! SHUT UP! IT GETS BETTER) Eventually I went and got him. I put him in the backyard . I left him out there. I sat in the bathroom and looked out at him and cried for about twenty minutes. Then he moved in and taught me how to be a good dog owner. He’s perfect, Now he is old,maybe 11. It’s going to happen. Every little thing he does makes me cry. I do not know how I am going to deal with the inevitable. I could not watch Tinsley’s dog scenes. I love Banjo so very much. I never expected that to happen. I just wanted a guard dog.

        Anyway, I say all this to say, I totally got Bethenny’s struggles to keep an appropriate face. It’s kind of like when you get the giggles at a funeral. She was trying to be appropriate. But Dorinda was pouring fans on the flames. I didn’t watch the dog stuff with Tinsley for personal reasons. But the whole freezing thing and putting the dogs ashes next to her fathers was WAY over the top. I have no plan for what the fuck I will do when it happens. But I will not call 911. It’s a very odd story with a lot of dark humor.

        As for Bethenny’s online meltdown when Cookie died, Bethenny doesn’t have a many close friends. She reached out to her imaginary Internet friends. God knows a meltdown is a coming over here. But I can guarantee you no one over here will be frozen and thawed or cremated. I’m probably call my methhead neighbor to come bury him in the back yard in his favorite weighted blanket.

        Wow that was an overshare. Sorry. My point, and I did start off with one is that I totally got Bethenny’s struggle to control her giggling. It was not a slight at Tinsley. Just a reaction to the bizarre circumstances surrounding freezing her dog only to thaw it out later.

          TT, I co-sign all of the above the Bethany. I wouldn’t be able to hold it together at my mother’s funeral if I had Dorinda sitting next to me talking shit.

          I fell hard for my first sweet dog. She changed my entire outlook on life. I became an animal rights advocate and vegan. I was worried that when it was time for her to go, I’d never recover. My friends and family were worried, too.
          When her quality of life was not up to what she deserved, I took her to the vet to have her put to sleep and say goodbye. I sat with her and focused on how thankful I was that I had her in my life for 10 years. I was thankful that she was taken to the shelter where I adopted her. I was thankful for all she taught me. I was so glad that I could hold her in the end and that she wasn’t scared or in pain. I was sad, but the gratitude outweighs the sadness.

            I have no choice but to be strong and lately it’s been bad. If my mom passed I would probably deal with it internally. She is a narcissist and I’m an empath. She hated me from day 1. Im just learning how to deal and not have nightmares where I’m screaming. She liked to turn everyone against me. I had a tough growing up. My dad was a cop. And she knew I loved him amd that he loved me. It made her mad that he looked exactly like me. Sorry for rambling I just dont have anyone to talk to anymore. My best friend of 22 years is killing herself. Everything is bad. My dog rascal is getting old. And all I do is think about what I’m gonna do when he dies. Hes the type of dog who wont let anyone in my house unless he knows them. And no men are aloud. He hates men unless his daddy is here. It sounds fucked up but I cant go anywhere or do anything while hes here. I can go to the store that’s about it. And at the same time I would be lost without him. Hes my best friend. He can read my emotions and I can read his. I hope everything is ok with banjo and with u.

        To be fair, I think Bethenny’s reaction to Tinsley’s story was more about the image of EMTs trying to resuscitate her dog rather than the actual passing itself. Sometimes you just can’t control how things strike you. At my grandfather’s visitation years ago my sister and I were looking at the flowers people had sent when I spied this hideously tacky arrangement of plastic flowers that prominently featured a BLUE PRINCESS PHONE. The banner across it read, “Jesus called and he answered”. I broke into an uncontrollable giggling fit and my sister was frantically pinching me and whispering to stop it. Luckily, I was quiet and from behind it looked like I was shaking from crying. I truly was heartbroken at losing Pops but he was Irish with a wicked sense of humor and I know he was looking down on me below and sharing the silliness of it. Please try not to think too harshly of me.

Is anyone familiar with that blow in breathalyzer thingie?? Why didn’t Lu just get someone else to blow in it for her after her “2” mimosas?? Unless I’m missing something seems like a no-brainer.

      Ok so I might be all on my own here, but I honestly don’t believe Luann has an alcohol use disorder. I think that she likes to drink just as much as the rest of the girls and occasionally goes overboard (just like the rest of the girls). She had too much and acted the fool, resulting in the legal issues. It is much easier to plead having a disease than to simply take responsibility for your actions. Accordingly, branding herself as someone who has a “problem” she did all the things one is “supposed” to do after such an incident. Because she doesn’t actually have AUD she does not consider herself an “alcoholic” and therefore drinks occasionally, which is seen as slips or relapse by the public at large. If you think about, reality TV starlets have always pulled this maneuver in hopes that after rehab their image will recover and legal issues will go away. This is just my two cents- please don’t kill me for this (potentially radical) opinion!

    If Bethenny, Dorinda and Sonja’s plan was to make Tinsley look bad and possibly push her off the show they failed miserably. I was shocked by the # of tweets coming for the them for ganging up on Tins so if anything, they just helped secure her apple for next season.

    As much as I like Bethenny, I agree with the tweets making fun of the fact she posted a video crying hysterically when Cookie had seizures yet mocked Tinsley about Bambi.

    I’ve said all I can say about Lu and hope she can turn things around for her sake and her children.

    Ramona may be gone after this. Bravo appears to be cleaning house where the OGs are concerned.

    No comment about Sonja

    I liked Dorinda her 1st season on the show and have continued to grow tired of her since.

        Bethenny was completely over the top when Cookie was having a seizure all over social media. Bethenny is completely over the top and neurotic about plenty of things in life. Tinsley was obviously distressed and panicked in the moment the same way Bethenny was with Cookie. I like both Bethenny and Tinsley, but there was no need to snicker at Tinsley when everything that happens to Bethenny is a big ordeal.

          I am a fan of Bethany’s, however, she wants every crisis of hers to be bigger and get more attention that anyone else’s crisis. For example, her stories about her childhood (apparently Ramona’s wasn’t much better), her search for a husband (Jason #1 wasn’t ready to commit), her therapy sessions, her marriage, her divorce, her custody battle,the death of her estranged father, the death of Cookie, the death of Dennis—and on and on. Glad she has had success with Skinny Girl, but cut the other women some slack. It’s not all about her.

            Exactly. I admire her charitable contributions to the world at large & try to focus on the positive ; then something like this happens. I understand the nervous laugh , gallows humor & the emotionally stunted ways she acts that way due to a gruesome childhood, which I truly believe was a harrowing experience for her Then something equally awful happens to a colleague & she berates their behavior & poor coping skills. Sad to witness. Her business skills are impressive yet her human skills are microscopic. I do hope she evolves & continues her philanthropic ways. She has helped many people facing dire circumstances. That counts too.

    I grew up in Virginia, about an hour away from Tinsley. Her family was considered old money. Yes, her Father was an alcoholic. However, he was a functioning one at that. But, as time went on he became less functioning, found a much younger wife, and died when he fell down a flight of steps drunk and never came out of the coma. But, he was smart enough to leave the money in trust for Tinsley managed by her Mother and lawyers. Despite breaking her ex husband’s heart, she did receive a fair, and substantial settlement in the divorce. Grandparents have passed and left her money, also in trust, and the products she used to market did very well overseas. Part of the reason she cannot commit to a place to buy is because for large purchases the trust has to approve it. Tinsley isn’t this innocent person just trying to make it back in society. The arrest, and subsequent restraining order wasn’t over her going to retrieve a purse. He broke things off, asked her to move out, and neighbors were calling the police because she would trespass on their property to spy on him or get into his house. So, she isn’t broke, and her Mother Dale has invested the money well for Tinsley.
    I don’t mind Ramona. Rumors are floating she might be demoted or let go. I’d read Bethenny was upset with her about what she said about Dennis (same thing Bethenny said later in the season) and demanded she be punished by having her sit far from Andy. But, she was right at last reunion saying Luann wasn’t sober, and I suspect she is right now that Luann isn’t sober. However, at the reunion Bethenny is actually being nice to Ramona, and usually if that happens you are not going anywhere.

    I am not really understanding why it any of the older women business, especially Dorinda, about Tinsley’s finances. It is pure jealousy on every level, in my opinion. She is a trust fund kid and they all know it, periodt. Drunk Dorinda just have to have something to harp on every season. There is absolutely nothing wrong with remaining good friends with an ex. I would have unloaded the profanity bombs on those heifers, from day one. They would have thought twice about playing Sherlock Holmes on my finances.

      While Dorit had a cashmere line that was successful while married to her first husband, (who wasn’t poor or middle class), it was with Richard where she got more connections. He left her set for life, and gave her daughter a nice inheritance too.
      Sonja feels she got screwed in the divorce. Still trying to recapture what was. Most don’t think of her as rich or part of the elite social group. Sonja resented Ramona for divorcing but keeping her bank account in tact. Dorinda, is a busy body like Sonja, know it all, that really knows nothing. Richard gave her the life she is living now.

She need to keep her mind set on her clean up man, John, and stay out of young folks business. She should try practicing the clip, clip for awhile, because she come across as a bitter and jealous old dame. A big pay back would be Bravo making Tinsley the “it” girl for next season and add a couple younger ladies to the cast. That alone will make NYC Old Lady Gang talk more than magpies.

    Personally I think its incredibly telling of Dorina and Sonja to think that a woman can only have a decent lifestyle living off of the money of a wealthier man.

    Bethenny has always been jealous of those who come from wealth. She had a comfortable life financially growing up but Ive noticed shes always had a chip on her shoulder at seeing people who she perceives as being “given” their money rather than earning it.

    Tinsley and her dog got me tho. And how everyone was very cold about it .( No pun intended) pissed me off. They lack empathy with her was not nice they treat her like a child because shes a little younger than all of them. Also I didn’t think you could call 911 if your dog died. That was strange to me. I only thought that was for people. Lol, funny but not

    So to sum up, Ramona is a pathological liar and Luann is a narcissistic, clueless, ungrateful, twat that does not now, nor will she ever, get it. The rest are just orbiting Bethenny’s world.

      The others are scared of Bethenny’s wrath. Ramona not so much.

        It really drives me nuts when people do what Dorinda (and a few others) were doing to Tinsley. Dorinda hurled one accusation after another at Tinsley. She called Tinsley deceitful. She was aggressive and nosing into things that are none of her business.

        Then, only after provoking a reaction from Tinsley, Dorinda becomes nice and sweet, saying things like, “Oh, I just want to get to know you better. I’m trying to get closer to you.”

        Really? Total BS.

        I’m glad Tinsley spoke up to a point, but I would have loved to see her really put those left couch people in their places. I hope she’s back next season with a fresh set of lashes and a stronger, more confident attitude.

    I believe Tinsley has plenty of money. Remember Dorinda asking Tinsley’s sister what she does for a living? and she said “I don’t work”. Dorinda was so jealous! Said “Lucky you.”

    Tinsley, her sister, and mother are socialites. I don’t recall Dorinda, passing judgement on Sonja and Ramona before they started Ramona’s Ageless skin care launch and Sonja’s clothing which may or may not be bringing in a lot. Dorinda is the LAST one to be asking people what kind of work they do! She doesn’t have any project at all.

    Dorinda has some nerve throwing in Tinsley’s face about Scott paying her bills. Dorinda you use John for dry cleaning! You are the last person who should pass judgement. Even if he was paying her bills who cares! Stay in your lane and worry about yourself, is what Tinsley needs to tell all of them. For the last couple of years I feel like I have been watching The Bethanney Frankel Show. I am SO over her taking over the episodes and the reunions.
