Finally going to try and watch the RHOBH premiere. I watched Garcelle on WWHL and already don’t like her. Maybe my mind will change before the end of the RHOBH recap. Oooooh! We are starting with fashion week! And Kyle is debuting her new clothing line in a NYFW fashion show.
I’m a bit overwhelmed by this episode already. Dorit has settled her Beverly Beach lawsuit with the swimwear manufacturer she didn’t pay. Erika Jayne is doing her show at the Barclay during fashion week. Teddi is pregnant. There is just a lot going on.
We Finally Meet Garcelle… What Did You Think?
Kyle has a partner in her clothing line that seems to be doing most of the work. Dorit mocks Kyle about this in her talking head. It is pretty chaotic trying to prepare for the runway. Erika takes Rinna and Denise and Teddi to a Go Go bar in NJ where she worked when she first moved to NYC.
Later most of the ladies head out for cocktails. We meet Garcelle and she seems tight with Denise. So maybe Garcelle can look out for Denise this season. Garcelle likes to drink shots. Teddi rounds out this trio. Erika Jayne makes a huge entrance in a big white and gold coat with gold gloves.

Then we meet Sutton, who is Rinna’s friend. Sutton takes Rinna to Domenico Dolce’s elaborate apartment. Or may it’s a store too. Rinna tries on a crown and sits on a thrown while Sutton is trying on a very ridiculous outfit. Then we hear LVP talking about how heavy her crown is. Make it stop! The other girls go out for some day drinks. Denise talks about her financial problems with Charlie Sheen. Erika calls Tom for legal advice.
We finally get an all cast dinner. Everyone is there including Faye Resnick. Kyle is filming Halloween in North Carolina. Between that and fashion week, she is away from her husband and kids for longer than she would like. Also, the director of Halloween had her cut bangs. She hates them. I think they look cute.

Sutton is VERY judgey of what the other ladies are wearing. She’s horrified that no one made placecards for the dinner table. I am not impressed with or amused by Sutton. Teddi announces she is pregnant at the dinner.
On the way to the fashion show, Kyle gets a call from someone on her team. He tells her that Tracie who is producing the fashion show told him to keep Kyle away from her. Kyle is pissed. That said Kyle caused a lot of chaos the last time she saw Tracie.
I haven’t seen the last ten minutes of the show yet. But going to just post this as a discussion while I can.
UPDATE! Going to try to finish this now. Teddi’s walk was rough. Rinna’s walk was fantastic. I likes most all of the looks. In December, Denise stopped shooting the show. I feel sorry for Denise. I love Erika told Denise she doesn’t have to explain herself. This season looks great!
Couldn’t decide who I liked less, Garcelle or Sutton but I’m pretty sure it’s Sutton. She proves that having money doesn’t give you taste or class. Kyle doesn’t seem to have done much with the clothing line, which was God-awful. Rinna is as annoying as ever. Erika seems a little nicer this season, but it was just the first episode. Hope your computer problems are better soon.
Kyle looked like such an awful person in this episode. Just awful the entire episode. Absolutely awful. I’ve seen her posting since it aired going off on Dorit. I wonder if production is finally showing us the real KRU. And Mauricio. He’ll take a shot with anyone when his wife and kids are on the other side of the country….. It’s starting to make me realize how Kyle used LVP to deflect attention away from what Kyle didn’t want highlighted on the show. TT – Good to hear that you’re hanging on through this.
What about Kyle is so awful? We’re we watching the same episode? I think you might just be an LVP stan and therefore will find/say anything bad about Kyle.
No, I usually love Kyle and I thought she was a total bitch this episode. She treated her fashion partner very badly & the director of the show too. She does enjoy being Queen Bee.
I found Garcelle interesting & Sutton a snotty amusing bitch – someone ridiculous is always good to laugh at. Anything different from last season’s puppy gate is welcome
It was nice to see Erica a bit softer, and I couldn’t believe I found myself liking Dorit. Rinna is still very snarky – was better than I’d hoped
Lawd! Puppy gate was like a broken record or watching the same ish over and over again. That horse named lucylucyapplejuicy was dead, resurrected, and shot 23 more times. I hope the forthcoming drama with Dennis isn’t dead horse beaten to death because I need some mindless distraction right now. I was oddly liking Dorit this episode too.
You totally nailed it!
I hate comments like this. You must be a “stan” if you don’t like how someone is acting. I generally like Kyle too but I think she has a side. Apparently Garcelle has seen it.
Gabrielle not Garcelle.
Garcelle
Ok this is unpopular but I love Rinna! I also like Gabrielle. Have to see more. I feel bad for Denise. She seems sweet and kind of hippyish.
I love Rinna. Always have. She hams it up a bit but yeah she is great.
Love Rinna always, even when she’s stirring the pot, lol! That will finally change if she’s mean to Denise. Denise is just so sweet and cool. The one BH housewife I’d truly love to just chill and do shots of tequila with. What’s with that Sutton chick though? She seems to have a platinum stick firmly wedged up her ass. The fussing over the lack of place-cards was so pretentious. I laughed my ass off at Rinna trying to say something nice about Sutton’s custom designed outfit! ?
I like Lisa Rinna too – she laughs at herself and then moves on.
YES. You hit the nail on the head. I love a person who laughs at herself. It indicates a humbleness I admire.
Also…Dorit is horrible. That’s is just horrible.
I love Rinna and Erika and always will, Dorit is just a fucking try hard. Sutton, eh whatever bitch. Garcelle I’m ok with so far. Denise has a very sweet side, I’m not sure what all the drama is but I guess we will all find out. Teddi has started to annoy me all to hell.
I thought it was a great premiere! The whole episode just felt light and fresh with a promise of drama coming soon. Did not miss LVP and think her absence helped the others be more open.
Agreed! I think that’s it; things were lighter and brighter. Looking forward to more. 🙂
I really enjoyed the premiere and loving Garcelle already. This season is gonna be good and I’m here for it.
Garcelle and Sutton can go! Get over your attitudes newbies.
Oh wow…disagree on Garcelle, she is already established in the industry and for that reason will not be pushed around. Let her stay to slay! However, Sutton has certainly gotten off to a snobby start! I am ready to let her go now! But am willing to give her a chance to come back to earth and play nice with others simply because she seems to have a sense of humor.
Nope. Love Garcelle. She can stay. She won’t be bullied which will be interesting to see how this plays out with a group of women who love to bully lol
Sutton I’m not interested in but it’s only the first episode and she’s just a friend of now.
I love Denise & think she was a great addition. I do think she will be the target this season & feel bad for her. These woman always seem to gang up on one individual to deflect from what is happening in their own lives & it’s not attractive. Did anyone else catch the shade grenade Kyle threw at absent Yolada when her own daughter said she was hungry & wanted something to eat before the fashion show ? Have a almond , she said. Made me roar with laughter.
Was that shade at Yolanda? I didn’t get that. Wasn’t it Kyle who admitted to an eating disorder and said that some days she only ate 8 almonds all day? I think that was at the reunion. I like Garcelle, not so much Sutton. I thought Kyle was Kyle in this opener. Bossy, controlling, entitled. But I love her, and I do not hate LVP. I dislike the mouthy self-impressed Rinna though. I’m looking forward to this season! Thanks for the recap, TT! With the bratty demand by some newbies to the WLS, I might have been tempted to forgo it.
Of course that was shade at Yolanda.she told Gigi HER CHILD to eat one (maybe it was two almonds)
Yikes, missed that.
“Very slowly, eat one almond.”
Ohhh Beverly Hills! What this show lacks in drama, it certainly makes up for in cinematography. RHOBH is always shot so beautifully. It’s the most lifestyle porn of all the housewives franchises. The private jets! The luxury hotels! The shopping! Domenico Dolce’s apartment!!
Fun (but also morbid) fact – that apartment is in the same building where Mick Jagger used to live with his ex L’Wren Scott before she passed. It’s a very beautiful building along the West Side Highway in Chelsea… that block doesn’t really get a ton of foot traffic so it’s good for the celebs who want to remain elusive while they’re in the city. Fans of Million Dollar Listing would know it from Season 1 – apartments in those buildings come with sky garages.
Garcelle!!! I love her. She’s gorgeous and based on her appearance this episode, seems very easygoing. I loved how her entrance was very Dominique Devereaux. It’s been time there was a little more representation in Beverly Hills.
Kyle…what are you doing? This is YOUR line.. yet you don’t know what all the pieces look like? Yet you choose to mess up with what the showrunner has planned? I get that you want your children to be a part of your journey … but surely family members could understand that they don’t need to be included in every show.
Overall.. this season looks promising. I like Denise and it sucks that she’s in the hot seat this year.. But life in Beverly Hills is a game… and production makes the rules.
I stan this comment! ?
Completely agree?
RHOBH is my favorite as well, even with LVP gone. This was a very busy episode, but the ending left me annoyed. Denise isn’t allowed to hide anything from Bravo when they ALL did last season and went to great lengths to protect Dorit of all people. GTFOOH.
EXACTLY. Production has hidden A SHIT TON OF THINGS FROM LVP TO EVEN MY FAVORITE, KYLE. AND ESPECIALLY LISA RINNA’S HUSBAND (and if you mention it here I will IP BAN YOU) They are all hypocrites for saying she can’t hide shit.
Please tell us what they’ve hidden!!
IP ban? Now I’m even more intrigued. I have to look into this. Obviously won’t mention it here. I need this website to live! LOL
Yes! My thoughts exactly. Since when can’t people hide shizz on this show?. I’m not looking forward to Brandi’s nastyass..ugh but it is what it is
I really like Garcelle, she seems the real deal. I think she and Erica and Denise will be great friends. I do hope they look after Denise because the others are going after her for sure. When Denise has done nothing but be kind and very open to these women.
Kyle was a fucking monster. An absolute sociopathic mean girl monster. Apparently to run a clothing line, you just take a few pictures of a butterflies and nature and send the picture to a designer, and voila! you are a fashion designer. The way she started pulling pieces out, putting her bratty daughters in the lineup at the last second, acting all stressed out when it was clear she had nothing to do with any of it except try to mess it up at the end. None of her friends that even tried on their runway outfits? Kyle didn’t even know how many pieces were in the show or what pieces were in the show. Pathetic.
She wants to be Queen Bee so bad that is very sad to me. I will admit that I just hate Kyle with a passion, but I was going into the season determined to be neutral. When she acts like that and she disgusts me all the more.
Sutton seems like a terrible snob.
I liked how Dorit tried to help Kyle on the day of the show but Kyle thinks she knows everything so I don’t think it helped much. What rate is still a scam artist though and a grifter.
Teddi is so boring. Enough said.
I think Erica is going to try to show a softer side which I think is great. Not a bad first episode; better than I expected.
PS: Tamera, I cried when you told your story about getting groceries delivered to your house. There are good people out there and that gives me hope during these dark and depressing times.
I’ll give Garcelle a chance, but Sutton is a plain white trash old hag. Did she even do her hair for the show? And she has the nerve to comment on the ladies and their clothes? I PRAY someone puts her in her place! But I also have to remember that the show needs someone to stir up trouble….Rinna is a pisser. I love Denise and I’m still so confused as to what the drama is. I hope she comes back!…I def think the real reason why Kyle gets so upset with leaving her family is because she doesn’t know what, where, or who Mauricio is doing, going or seeing. I cannot wait for the next Halloween movie in October. I just hope she does a good job in it.
One of my very rich friends knows who Sutton and her former husband are. I don’t even know how to explain it other than VERY RICH people things. She probably has more money than Kyle and Mauricio. THAT will be an issue.
Garcelle WHO? She’s not that big of a deal as far as I know.
JerseyTerror, 100% agree. I like Kyle and Mauricio. BUT, Mauricio, as good of a man I believe him to be, seems the type who will let loose like a 20 yr old college kid the second Kyle steps out the door for more than a day. She is VERY high-strung and a control freak (i.e wanting to take control of a fashion show she knows nothing about, having a borderline panic attack when she flies, and being easily frazzled for just about anything). She seems like a nice lady, but it must be exhausting for Mauricio. So it does not surprise me he lets loose when he can, and probably why Kyle gets upset when she leaves. Also, Sutton reminds me of a documentary we watched in college that discussed how women in the 40+ range, that were definitely not a size 4, were the main ones who buy all the couture and are basically keeping the art of couture and ateliers alive in Europe. This episode was great! The season looks awesome, and hope that Denise can pull through everything.
Oh wow, please share the doc info if you can find it…sounds fascinating!
I THINK it’s The Secret World of Haute Couture by the BBC. It’s on Youtube. I don’t remember if it’s this piece or another that goes into how Chanel owns the majority of all Ateliers in Paris. Haute Couture is no longer a profitable business, so Karl Lagerfeld had made it one of his missions to not let the art form die, and when the other fashion houses put their Ateliers on the market, he would buy them all. This is why there are only very few brands doing couture now. It is very expensive.
Thank you!
Yes!! I would love to see that doc also. Sounds so great. Has anyone ever seen the doc about Valentino with all of his pugs? I can’t recommend it enough-it is excellent!!!
I would do Mauricio in a heart beat! Idk what it is about Kyle that has always annoyed me. I like her tho, I do! And from what I hear she is very nice to fans in person when out in public. I just always felt like she acted desperate to be on camera. It all started on the first episode of Paris Hilton’s “The SimpleLife.” I remember thinking, “that woman is dying to be on camera.” But whatever, she is funny and she looks better than ever!
Also, I think I have figured out the trick not to let this laptop die. Unfortunately, it does not like the recapping part of my website. It takes a lot of bandwidth. So I will stay out of it until the new laptop arrives.
Looking forward to Brandi and Camille episodes! They’re terrible people, but make the show interesting at least!
Erika’s vocal fry gets more intense every season every season. She’s quite conceited in this episode, I just don’t understand her shtick anymore.
Kyle’s pose as a designer was funny. Watching Kelly Cutone put on a runway show on the show she was on really highlighted all of the moving parts that go into a good show. At least Dorit knew enough to TRY to make Kyle SOUND like she knew something.
Sutton. Yike. That outfit she had when she was sitting next to Rinna in the Dolce apartment was hideous. Heinous, especially on a person older than 22. And the PLACECARDS, that reminded me of Dorit and the “correct” glass.
I don’t understand why ANYONE is not allowed to have secrets, privacy. Say Denise and Brandi DID have sex, can’t that be a secret? Just because you’re on a reality show doesn’t mean EVERYTHING about your life has to be OUT THERE. EVERYONE has secrets. I started liking Denise when I saw on her show how she treated her kids, her parents, her employees and her animals, even her ex. Treating them all with kindness — THAT’S my definition of class. Not wearing sequined diapers.
We shall see where the gossip re: Denise and Brandi came from..
It is petty that the housewives apparently make a big deal out of it while we have seen on these HW-wives shows how it is ‘cool’ to flirt with bisexuality, women touching eachother, showing their tits to the other HW:s, and so on.
It is ridiculous to go after Denise, trying to damage her relationship or what it is they are trying to do.
Yep. This is a “reality” show and they did sign up to let the cameras in. But in REAL LIFE vs. reality, people don’t tell EVERYTHING about their lives to EVERYONE. We already see how kids are semi off-limits. Husbands don’t disclose every business deal. I know SO MANY secrets about people they’ve only told me. Things even their husbands and families don’t know. People have been telling me their secrets since childhood. I’ve never told a single person those secrets. Omertà. Those secrets will die with me.
Just because there’s a camera in your face doesn’t change that. AS OPPOSED to Dorit’s bullshit, which is part of PUBLIC RECORD. Not to mention viral swimming pool chasing. Bravo looked stupid, concentrating on “the receipts” of Puppygate and not showing the lady at the swimming pool when its cameras WERE THERE FILMING during that incident.
It was fun watching everyone mostly getting along. Until the last seconds with (Kyle’s?) voiceover saying how great it was with everyone laughing that it would be hard to predict what would happen soon afterward…
That’s the drama? Denise and Brandi might have hooked up?….really?…..
I agree with you. That’s between the two people involved or between Denise and her husband. I too wonder who leaked such a thing.
I’m happy we finally have some new blood and it sounds like Garcelle is taking Kyle down a few notches which is needed. I’m sick of everyone kissing her ass and never being accountable for her dirty work. Interesting how Dorit’s lawsuit was immediately fodder for the show, but nothing about the multiple lawsuits against Mauricio. Also if I see another Agency hat I’m gonna throw up. Or throw something at the TV. Garcelle made it very clear that she is no fan of Kyle on WWHL and I am here for that!
Early days but I like Garcelle so far , not surprised Sutton is only a friend of housewife as she irritates me already . This show seems to run with one main theme each season and has already revealed this season’s obsession will be the alleged Denise v Brandi affair . Ratings have fallen significantly since last season’s premiere and I hope this season doesn’t become another “mean girls gang up “, but instead we get to see more of their fabulous estates and lifestyles
Birds of a feather flock together—-Kyle and Faye and Rinna and Sutton??
I love, love Sutton. I love the sass..I think RHOB needs her. Garcelle meh so far.
I stole your word! Sorry!
I was going to avoid this show, but then I bought it on amazon. It was so good! I hope Denise wins. Erika was . . . pleasant? Wow. I loved the houses, clothes and sass. The richest franchise showed out.
Miss LVP but do have to concede her absence has opened things up. Great to see these ladies back!
I think some people may disagree with me but if it doesn’t happen on camera and the “secret owner” doesn’t bring it up then the others should respect their privacy and not tell a story that is not theirs to tell. Some secrets can effect family members and have a greater result than just trying to stir the pot, embarrass someone or create a story line. It kinda changes the show from entertaining to just plain nastiness.
But those are the secrets Brandi loves to tell. Like when she outted Adrienne for using a surrogate during her pregnancies. Something her own children did not know.
When will people learn that Brandi is not to be trusted. She’s a hot mess. She may be fun to party with but fun and trustworthy are two very different things.
I saw Kyle do an instagram live and she answered questions from fans. It sounded to me like the big kerfuffle with Denise is not so much over the having sex with Brandi but the pillowtalk. Brandi shares some shit-talk Denise said about all the Housewives. I was half listening though.
Kerry, I agree with you 100%!
They don’t come much trashier than Brandi. Does she ever consider her own children when she does things like this?
TT- you are right about Brandi. She can not see beyond herself. If someone exposed a secret like that about her kids she would what’s left of her sanity.
I am a white trash senior citizen living in sunny South Florida so I adore Kyle’s fashion! I can wear it to bed. I can wear it to Publix. I can wear it on a date night because I have been married for 37 years and hubby would love me no matter what I wear. It would be fab at a church event or for a mug shot. Who seriously doesn’t want to swoop in every f*cking place in a long, silky, brightly colored robe? The only problem I can see is that I need a matching muumuu with every robe instead of a corseted bondage bathing suit and I will wear flip flops instead of Marquis de Sade inspired footwear designed to destroy muscle and bone and ligaments from hips to toesies!
The best thing I ever heard anyone say about etiquette was when Dixie Carter was playing Julia Sugarbaker on Designing Women and Julia was trying to make Jean Smart’s character Charlene feel better about the fact that Charlene wasn’t raised up rich or proper and Charlene was upset. Julia said the whole purpose of etiquette was to make people feel COMFORTABLE. I don’t care how much money Sutton has… If her idea of hospitality and proper etiquette is to snarl her nose up at everyone and feign being horrified that there are not placecards on the table then she is bougie and the last person I would seek advice from in regards to planning or hosting any event.
I like pretty much anything Kyle wears or “designs” I was a boho chic muumuu wearer before I stopped wearing clothes and started wearing men’s PJs. Kyle and Rinna and to a degree Erika are my favorites. Someone I know contacted me after Sutton was cast to basically say that she and her husband are loaded and if recall correctly he also said she took him to the cleaners in the divorce. This person is very rich, bitch and if he says they have money THE HAVE A FUCKLOAD OF MONEY.
LaLaFly, I love your style!
I live for colorful kaftans.
I DID wear one for my mugshot! ?
I thought the ladies ROCKED the show, especially seeing them lined up above.
TT, I think we have already shared our men’s pj wearing stories with each other…but I love men’s pj’s so I’ll share my story again.
When my favorite grandpa passed away when I was a junior in high school, I asked my Granny for his pajamas. I took in the waistbands on all the bottoms and left the tops huge. I wore them as matching sets and paired tops with jeans and bottoms with (mainly) Alice Cooper tee shirts for the rest of my high school days. This was the mid 70’s and I was very weirdly dressed all the time but strangely popular. Like I kept my hair chopped off about a quarter of an inch long when every girl and boy had long, straight hair parted in the middle…LOLOLOL
I love men’s pajamas. I wish I still had my Grandpa’s old jammies. Missing him and my Granny so much these days.
Le sigh…
<3
@Lizbone: I laughed so hard that you wore your colorful kaftan for your mugshot and I am jealous because I was not wearing something gorgeous for my one and only mugshot! LMFAO
@SuzyJane: my Granny taught me that. <3 to all the beautiful women who taught us to be kind but strong.
@Kerry: I owe everything I am to very strong, beautiful women and I am grateful everyday for their lessons. <3
I love my old man PJs too They are kind of hard to find now.. I took the trash out today. so that was good,
That’s what my Mama taught me too!
LalaFly- you seem to have more class and grace than most of the women claiming to be high society
OMG, LaLaFly, your comment just made my day!
The largest size for Kyle’s clothing line is a size 10…
Oh. Well, no one who is a small size is going to wear that. Sorry, Kyle. I know you read here, and I love you, but that was a big mistake. HUGE.
THAT is the worst thing I’ve read about Kyle. Most “average” lines go up to a size 14, nowadays many go up to 16 or 18. Stopping at 10 is a very unwise business decision. Not to mention judgemental. “I don’t want anyone LARGE wearing my clothes, it’ll make my designs look bad.” I dare you to say that to Christian Siriano.
We just got back and so happy to see Tamara has checked in. All of us readers know you don’t like phone calls.
Holy crap, her stuff is not cheap!
I have some exclusive RHOA tea I am going to try to get up. But when I am on my admin site at the site, that is when the laptop crashes. I think it is a fan/overheating issue. I think it is the fan that is dying.
That makes sense. I remember people telling me that’s what went wrong with their laptops, despite improvements. I thought I had the oldest working machine until yesterday a coder friend who told me he does everything on a 2007 Mac laptop!
TT, I might have a solution if it is your fan and overheating. Check out laptop cooling pads. They are easily found on Amazon for $25-40. Someone suggested this when my nephew’s laptop kept shutting down during games. We bought him one and we all were amazed at how well it worked! Perhaps it will at least buy you some time.
Sutton is already trying too hard. She remindede of Dana “$10k sunglasses”
Bitch, THOSE WERE $25,000 according to Dana! lol. And yes, but Sutton is actually rich as fuck and Dana was not. Both are equally annoying.
Let’s say that Dolce whatevia is where I buy all my million dollar clothes. I know people who could, and if I wanted probably WOULD buy me whatever the fuck I wanted. I would never say THIS COST NINETY BILLION DOLLARS. In fact I would be ashamed to speak of my privilege. I actually asked that person for something last night. I am not sure I have ever done it before. I don’t think I have. If you don’t count my constant need for advice over a decade or three. I am the luckiest person in the world. I have way more than I need or deserve. And having a GBF is way better than having a husband. EVERY FUCKING TIME. Unless, you know, you are in a pandemic and your laptop is dying, and there is no one with you when the TV says WE ALL ALL GOING TO DIE IN A TORNADO, or your governor feels the need to open tattoo shops and nail salons, and gyms . And you realize YOU will be quarantined for the rest of the year because your governor is trying to kill us all just like our President.
Do tell, what did you ask for last night? Lake Bailey? ?
That’s right! $25k!
I am going to go watch that clip after I post this. So obnoxious.
I’m also glad to hear that you seem to be doing better. XO
Oh! I know who Sutton reminds me of, Moira Rose!
I loved this episode! It feels more like the old RHOBH, before it became the Queen Lisa show. (I loved the snarky references to Vanderpump and the crown.)
I’m not sure about Garcelle yet, and time will tell with Sutton, although I think there’s a lot of wink-wink-nudge-nudge humor with that one. We’ll see. That pink blouse/bra thing, though — NO. Unless that was another little homage to the dearly departed Lisa Vanderpump. It looked like something she’d wear.
As far as the other cast members, I’ll be devastated if Denise is truly done with the show for good. She is a breath of fresh air!
I agree with your opinion and will add that in my opinion Brandi also brought the show down with unnecessary street fight behavior. Denise is breath of fresh air so unfortunately producers bring in Brandi to suffocate us all as she did in season 3 with an unnecessary attack on Adrienne.
Hopefully this season will be more like the old days of RHOBH which I will be binge watching today on Bravo 🙂
You’re so right about Brandi!
I don’t know if I can bring myself to watch this season. So over all these women.
