Tinsley Mortimer has not quit RHONY. She has gotten back together with Scott Kluth and has been going back and forth between Chicago and NYC during filming. She recently told production that she would not be a a couple of upcoming shoots because she would be in Chicago.
Production has told her that they will not be including her in those episodes and she will not be paid for them. Sometimes, they will stick in some sort of scene with the missing person so they don’t lose their episode pay if they can’t attend a filming. That is not what they plan to do for Tinsley.
Tinsley Mortimer is Once Again HOPING For A Ring
Furthermore, the sources reporting about an engagement ring and proposal are coming from Tinsley. Production is not really buying the whole thing. But, hey, a girl can hope. She does seem happy in Chicago. She and Scott are staying at The Langham for some reason. Also she posted a very strategic photo that did not show her ring finger.
If she does somehow miraculously get engaged this time, it’s likely that she will live in Chicago. Then she probably would not film next season. But don’t hold your breath.
Currently, she remains a full time housewife for the upcoming season. Presuming she doesn’t keep skipping shoots.
Bonus Tea:
Jill Zarin seems to be getting her buddy to put out that “she is coming back full time to replace Bethenny.” This season of RHONY is almost done with filming. Leah McSweeney is taking Bethenny’s spot and Elyse Slaine is taking Barbara’s spot. It’s possible that production is not really thrilled with that casting decision. But it is what it is for this season. There’s always next year, Jill Zarin.
Also, I am hearing that if Vicki Gunvalson doesn’t drop her ridiculous lawsuit against Kelly Dodd, she will not be invited to the reunion. I told y’all she was pissing off production with this legal nonsense. At least Tinsley Mortimer isn’t the only one pissing off production this week.
Tinsley is about to fumble her own bag for an egotistical fat slob from LAKEWOOD of all places who probably can’t do any better than her.
The difference between Tinsley missing a couple of episodes and Vicki’s lawsuit is as big as Porsha’s ass and LuAnn’s ego. Combined.
Well, Tinsley doesn’t seem to need a RHONY paycheck (at least financially), so I can see why she’s willing to risk her apple to lock down Scott. But considering how Scott has been stringing her along for nearly three years. I’m wondering if she’s thought out what happens if she can’t lock down either.
As everyone already knows, I have far less sympathy for Vicki, even though she really seems to be taking a hit with her RHOC pay cut. Why the hell would she risk her chance of winning back her orange to sue Kelly? Again, she truly is her own worst enemy
Agree 💯!!! How many F’s do I give about Vicki? Not one! You are right about her being her own worst enemy. She has always been too full of herself. She was so high and mighty declaring it was HER show and telling others to get off of her show. I wish they would get rid of her completely.
And even worse, Vicki has always been such a hypocrite. Vicki accused Jeana (as in, OG/Seasons 1-5 Jeana) of messing with her money over a real estate deal gone bad, but she had no problem dragging Heather and Terry Dubrow into Brooks’ cancer scam during RHOC Season 10. Vicki castigated Gretchen over her (admittedly sketchy) relationship with Slade, but again, she went apeshit whenever anyone called out any of the sketchy shit surrounding Brooks. And while Vicki continues to go ham whenever anyone pokes into her current relationship with Steve, she also continues to spread all kinds of crazy rumors (occasionally with some truth, but often ridiculously false) about Tamra’s, Shannon’s, Kelly’s, and Gina’s (as in, new Gina) respective relationships.
And this is just the start of Vicki’s rap sheet.
🙌🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏻 (standing ovation)
I can’t forgive her for that cancer scam.
Their love is like Pumpkin Spice…seasonal!!
Or maybe more like Ground Hog Day…Scott appears when the cameras are rolling. He gets Tinsley all hot, bothered and hopeful then sees his shadow and skeedaddles back to Chicago.
She is in WDW this weekend with Scott. A friend of a friend bumped into them there. They weren’t filming.
What’s WDW?Oh Disney? Is she going for a Sleeping Beauty proposal? Does Scott have kids? I forget. It seems like going to work might be slightly more important.
Scott has never been married and has no kids to my knowledge. I think he might be a committment-phobe or a confirmed bachelor. Whatever, I don’t understand what Tinsley sees in him. He’s unattractive as hell and treats her like crap.
Has anyone else noticed that Scott and Tinsley always seem to “get back together” during the fall and very conveniently during filming? And didn’t he father a child with another woman recently? I hope we won’t be subjected to those stupid Coupon Cabin commercials this season! I like Tinsley and the contrived storyline last season of the cast mates “advising and warning” her about Scott I found really crappy.
Yes! The photos were taken at The Nomad Lounge in Animal Kingdom!
Is that sad that I spend so much time in Disney bars that I can tell where they are from a sliver of a photo?
No, I knew too. Some of us just need happy places to keep us happy
Not sad. I’m envious.
That’s Maui for me! Every time a celeb stays there I try to figure out where they’re staying based on the beach pics!
I wouldn’t notice. She adds next to nothing when she’s on.
These people that think Tinsly has some trust fund somewhere are hilarious. Allegedly.
Her dad blew it all. Allegedly.
She will do everything she can to get that ring. It was always Topper’s family who had all the money.
I like Tinsley and hope she does get that ring from Scott.
That’s heresay. They still have a crap ton of money. Where did you even read that
Every fucking where. Tinsley is BROKE.
Not exactly heresay. It’s pretty well known if you travel in certain circles. Tinsley’s Dad famously pissed it away. Gloriously. And honestly, Tinsley’s own actions point to her desperation. JoJo speaks the truth! People who think Tinsley has money are fools. Maybe once upon a time….
@Kevin I live close to her mom and we have mutual friends. Palm Beach is a SMALL town.
How does her mother and sister continue to live in Palm Beach with no money?
Poor Tins, she’s gonna get her heart broken again.
Tinsley has the best manners on NY, so I would miss that.
I always liked Tinsley but her well mannered behavior while on the high wire at Big Apple Circus was charming & sweet. Crying & terrified she still introduced herself like a lady. I could use much more Tinsley like behavior thru out the entire Real Housewives franchise. She is a nice person, adorably loving & mourning
her dog & tolerates her mothers constant badgering with aplomb. Hats off to you Miss. Tinsley Mortimer. We need more like you on these shows.
And hats off to you Marc for your comment. What a wonderful description of Tinsley. Everyone should have a friend like you. XOXO
I fell for a scott type before. Now, many years later, I still can’t explain why I put up with being strung along. I was just so in love and in my 20s so didn’t know what I know now.
At least you can blame it on your 20s. I was in my 40s, trying to not run (my MO) from my first sober relationship. Reminded me of WHY I drank in the first place.
Does Coupon Cabin work on diamond rings.
Lol
Giggle!
Oh Tins, you could really do better imo. I don’t know Scott but I SEE him. I mean really?
She needs to go back to work, design more handbags and use her eggs and a donor and carry on! No need to be hitched to a four wheeled cart missing a wheel, talk about catywompass *sp!
That Gif of Jill Zarin is everything! 😂
Giggling again!
Happy to hear your back online. Giggling again, you’ve got the insight without seeing the actual visuals…smiley face, we think a lot a like.
Tinsley seems like such a sweet person. I don’t know why some other rich guy hasn’t snagged her. I can’t imagine how/why this on again/off again relationship works. Scott better do the right thing. Tinsley doesn’t have time for this nonsense if he isn’t going to marry her. I really wish her the best.
Tinsley has said on camera that she has income from trusts. Her clothes are very expensive. I hope she can support herself.
Tins wants Scott, so I, for one, am rooting for them. (Their baby would be adorable.) I agree with thill: Scott better do the right thing!
You can’t imagine? I would think that the one scene where she throws herself on the floor when Scott enters and cries like some sort of wounded moose would turn a few guys off. That and crying over embryos. Girl is a bit nuts and desperate.
Poor Tinsley. Her mom has given her such a complex. She doesn’t seem to know her own worth because it’s tied to having a man and a baby. I’d love to see Tinsley stick it to her mom and get a short spiky haircut, full tattoo sleeve, and adopt a baby on her own. Dale would croak.
I’m a Tinsley fan. Fan of her decency, kindness, doesn’t try to bring someone down, looks for the good in others. She knows how to wear clothes and fashion and doesn’t look foolish. Well, except for a few times. Wish she had more confidence in herself so she could dial down that anxiety. The show needs her because the other ladies are trying too hard to be funny or sexy or youthful or fashionable or relevant. She seems genuine.
I’ve known people that have worked for Scott Kluth at Coupon Cabin. He’s NOT a catch. Google Glassdoor and Coupon Cabin. Scott is called out in several of the reviews for being an impossible personality to deal with, much less work for
Yep. I’ve read the Glass Door stuff. It makes Scott seems awful. Barely pays his part-timers, and most are part-timers and occasionally holds raffles and hands out random hundred dollar bills here and there. They say he is ruining his own company.
Yikes! I just did and if you do go ahead and read the employee and former employee complaints it sheds a whole other level of insight into this situation. It reminds me of how timid and afraid Tinsley was to call Scott when Bethanny demanded her to at her house party last season. How afraid she was to upset him even though Bethanny’s request was questionable and she didn’t have to comply, seems like she walks on eggshells around him. That’s what it seems his employees do, so yeah I can’t imagine Tinsley’s stress managing being around that romantically.
Scott reminds me of someone I know and trying to please him was a full time job with no benefits! She wants to win the prize (ring, marriage, kids) but he’ll keep moving the goal post on her and never give into her needs or expectations. Who knows but she seems to keep her left hand strategically hidden in both pics. That’s the one with Daddy’s gold Rolex and all those Cartier bangles that she loves to show off too. So maybe they are engaged.
Somehow the photo of them at the Big Apple Circus doesn’t seem so happy, she got what she was crying about a year ago now came true, he did show up with her and they had a photo of the step-n-repeat there. But maybe it’s me, her smile looks forced or she’s hunched a little it seems because he has his hand on her neck? I expected her to be BEAMING especially after that epic breakdown there last year crying about his absence.
Where are these photos of them at Disney?
Maybe I’m projecting but I don’t see her glowing in that pic. She did look good in the one she posted on Instagram with the rainbow in Chicago.
I really like Tinsley and think she deserves so much better. What makes me crazy is that if she marries Scott, and the marriage implodes, Dale will probably blame Tinsley and make her feel awful about it.
