Oh hey! Let’s do another RHOBH recap! It feels like eons have passed and civilizations have crumbled since I last watched this show but it was only last week. If y’all could take an MRI of my brain right now I’d be lucky if you found three functioning brain cells. My brain literally hurts from thinking really hard when I am not used to it. So, I am treating is with copious amounts of Merlot. And, when I finish this inevitably typo ridden recap, I’m going to try to make a lobster and stir fried rice dish. I am not sure that’s a thing. And I am not committing much of my remain NE lobster to the dish. Just enough to make me feel fancy and loved.
She’s baaaaaaaaaaack! Le Sigh
We start with Kyle apparently being forced to stop by Camille’s new house post Malibu fires. These two hate each other. But they seem to be ready to try to fake it. Also, Kyle is to RHOBH as Kandi is to RHOA, but do what they are told by production, don’t make much of a stink about their paychecks ( I keep meaning to tell Kyle to ask for a raise because I know for a fact she could get one but never asks, hey girl! Hit me up!). It’s her beach house that she has renovated. It’s stunning of course. Camille has done well for herself. And. she is desperate to be on the show.

I want to like Camille. But she’s a Trumper and I just can’t. Other than that seems seems lovely. And, I certainly covet her lifestyle. Camille was in a bad place at the reunion and she was ganged up on, but she deserved it. I love that Kyle loves on everyone’s dogs, even those of her enemy. Kyle basically welcomes Camille back to the show if she can get along with everyone. Oh joy, the storms rolling in are not stopping the fireworks idiots. Banjo’s barking is killing my head.
Stranger Things
Rinna and Denise meet for lunch at a fancy schmanzy restaurant. This is what I want to see. Things are tense. Denise wants to meet with Rinna privately to tell her it hurt her feelings when she called her a hypocrite in front of everyone. Rinna responds horribly. She wants to know why she can’t be open about her feelings. Nothing about hurting Denise’s feelings. Come on, Rinna. I love you but your attitude right now is all wrong. Also, Rinna that pink dress in your talking heads is plum awful. And, so is your treatment of Denise. Also, not a single fry was eaten that I saw. Those fries probably cost twenty bucks!

WHY IS DORIT MAKING IT SO HARD TO HATE HER THIS SEASON? Is it the lack of her doughboy husband? I like Dorit’s 1960’s Marlo Thomas flip and her minimal makeup. And, I like she’s not done hating Camille. Sigh. What I hate is myself for sort of kind of liking Dorit this season. I don’t understand Garcelle’s scene. It looks like the script writer is trying to keep the threesome fight going. Also, while I am on a paragraph with no central idea, I’ve notice that I don’t think they are really including self shot home talking heads. Which was the entire reason for the hiatus. They seem to be using soundbites from older talking heads.
OH My BUDDA!
I needed this Eileen Richardson scene. I would like a whole episode of Rinna, Erika Jayne and Eileen’s ride to the Kyle’s fundraiser. I love Eileen and she looks beautiful. She seem to think she is brunette for a role but I think she is still a dark blonde. And strikingly gorgeous and I could not be happier to see her and wish she would come back. In another car, Denise and Aaron are being a little bit weird. Erika isn’t down with seeing Aaron.

Kyle is a huge fundraiser for Children’s Hospital, especially since Maurcio was a patient at a very young age. She is nervous about having a live auction. She has REALLY good items. $25K with a plastic surgeon, a week stay at a spa with a massage every day! I need that one. Kyle is super stressed out about the event. She can’t get the pool to light up. Porsha can’t get her hair done. Maurico isn’t dressed. It’s a hot mess. The house looks amazing. Though, I’d lose the neon light that says “Bitch Please You Could Never Be me! Dorit looks AMAZING. The dress is impeccable. Thank God she brought her idiot of a husband because I need someone to go in on tonight.
Black Ties And White Lies
When the ladies look at all the things up for auction, Camille and her friend Kimber are both being ignored. Rinna and Eileen reluctantly show up to film with them. Very reluctantly. Rinna immediately tells Camille that she is an asshole on Twitter. Everyone is an asshole on Twitter. That is why it is my online home. But, Camille is an asshole to all the people on the show and now they have to deal with her face to face. So I love Rinna calling her out. All I get from this scene is that Eileen is stunningly gorgeous. I want her back, did I mention that?

Ooooh Lala! Garcelle shows up with a hot new man and I am giving him all the thumbs up! It’s Chocolate Michael as opposed with white Michael she married. I’m down with Chocolate Michael being on this season as much as possible. IJS. Oh that Garcelle talking head is definitely home shot. IRL someone would have told her that everything about it is a no for me, dawg. I am NOT a shoe person. AT ALL. But, Sutton’s shoes are amazeballs. I may have mentioned it before but my richest friend by miles knows Sutton’s ex-husband. So she is loaded.
The Stars Are Out Tonight!
Speaking of loaded, Kyle has invited all her rich friends who are willing to film inclucing Kris Jenner and her “chocolate” boyfriend. And Faye Resnick and well too many to mention that I spotted in the crowd. I’m hoping y’all will list them in comments because this is taking forever to recap and may go down in history as my favorite episode ever!

Brandi Glanville is on the scene to cause problems. She is accompanied by Mia. Am I allowed to say that I think Mia is either a drag queen or trans? Because that’s what I am thinking. NTTAWWT. Also, I love Kyle. But, production sent Brandi to cause a scene with Denise. And I am not down with that. But what I love is an auction. I used to live in rural SC and the auction was the place to um, drunk drive to, every Saturday night. I wish I could go to auctions every day and I don’t need any more stuff. But, I was sort of considered the city slicker and anything I bid on was immediately up bidded. This auction is way too rich for my blood, but I would bid anyway. Kim is there looking amazing.
This morning Chrissy Metz was on the Kelly Clarkston show announcing her new Walmart line. Much more my speed. Hell I am going to take a look later and if there are no pajamas I’m emailing her. Anyway. once again I digress. At a charity event you, I guess I mean me, decide how much you want to contribute and then find an item to overbid on. Kris Jenner donates $25K with no purchase. And I find myself wanting to cry about that. I’m just wrung out lately, sorry. While the auction is going on, PK tries to counsel Aaron and I start to think I need to go to an auction. It lifts my spirits. Kyle raised over $300K for her event. Teddi, Denise and Camille sit on the couch.
Next Week: Rinna announces they are going to Rome.
Oh, hells bells. I am going to have to find a way to watch this episode. You made it sound so good. Maybe I can find it on YouTube.
Seeing the generosity was nice. I didn’t know Mauricio was ill as a child. Saw his mom there she is beautiful
I loved Kyle for effusively thanking everyone while they bid and jumping up to congratulate them when they won. That’s my favorite side of her. Mauricio telling her to call Ghost Busters was funny. Pitch: Event Planning Show for Kyle, post-coronavirus I guess.
Maybe Dorite was so forced and scared last season because she was trying so hard to hide her legal issues by pushing puppygate, and she’s less terrified this season.
I don’t see how Kyle could have an Event Planning Show when she hired an event planner to do that party. Glenn the event planner was shown and is often shown planning her parties.
You don’t have to be a real housewife to be on a show called Real Housewives because it isn’t a documentary.
So many fake boobs and so little time. There were no standouts for me fashion-wise. I hate Camelle or however you spell her name. She’s so phony and desperate to be on camera. Ugh. I didn’t care for Rinna’s wig. It looked askew and begged to be snatched. What is this business with Garcelle neediing to date a black man to appease her black girlfriends? Don’t they know a good man is hard to find? Psh, if I limited myself I’d be one lonely bitch. Date whoever you have chemistry with and let the haters masterbate in their envy juices. I just do not understand why the ladies refuse to understand that Denise doesn’t want adult talk around her kids. I’m team Denise on this one. Also, how dare they assume Denise is her movie characters? Actors hate that shit. I’m not a doctor but I play one on tv. Have some effing respect. Leave the kids out of the xrated talk. Aaron has lost his appeal for me. He’s much more attractive when he’s quiet. Oh, and didn’t PK have a Boy George look happening in his commentaries? What’s with the soft lighting and makeup? Ain’t nothing gonna help that mug except a dark room and lots of tequila.
Yeah, I definitely noticed the lipstick on PK. Seemed like a sudden switch for him, with no explanation.
I don’t even look up while typing when PK is talking. But now things are becoming a bit more clear to me. I’ve never understood the whole PK is Boy George’s “manager” thing. I am sure he must have real representation somewhere…
PK “Doughboy” has been spending time in Australia with Boy George as PK will be producing BG’s movie.
Culture Club and Nixxi agency run by PK worked together for many years, not sure if that is still the case now. – BG as a solo artist is with other agencies however PK is still his manager.
Dorit is probably feeling more financially secure as technically her finances are not linked to PK’s therefore she is not held responsible for his financial debts, I wonder if she is in charge of the purse stringers – well she did buy his shoes!!
PK has a gambling problem as a player however he does hold investments with multiple online gaming companies which have been switched out/ around to pay off his gambling debts.
Under Gambling Regulations this situation has “grey areas” so that has not been resolved as yet.
PK & Dorit are grifters who are playing “The Long Game/Con ” so I am not surprised about the change in their personalities.
Aaron needs to step away from the camera. Just say pardon me and step back, Aaron. That’s the advice he needs to take.
Was that Cojo at the party in the fur? I was thinking about him recently. Do you all remember him from E and the Red Carpet?
I am so sad that I have no tv to see my queen Eileen. I love her and she’s stunning with dark blonde hair. Maybe by the time I’ve moved and settled, I’ll have tv by Friday. We’re a covid hot zone so we’re going to have to install our own wall outlets and they’ll do the outside. Pray for us. We are not crafty ppl. Today has been a major pile of crap and this recap made me smile even if I can’t watch it in the near future. Thanks, TT. I needed it badly today. I won’t even type what happened because it’s just too much right now. Hopefully after my sedative kicks in dreams of Eileen, Rinna, and Erika Jayne will come my way. Even Dorit because I’m liking her lots this season too!
Prayers and hugs being sent your way, Amanda! (I would be in total bitch mode without my TV.)
Thank you! I finally got to watch this episode and New York. What a great break from reality!
Dorit seems more settled and content this season. She’s not trying to one-up everyone all the time. Maybe that’s why you all like her more. Maybe she’s better without LVP too. That was so awkward with Teddi and Denise just starting to talk and Kyle interrupting and dragging Camille over.
“While I’m in a paragraph with no central idea” made me laugh. Thanks, TT.
I’ve noticed a better Dorit also, she’s finally gotten her sea legs. Her dress was unbelievable! I so miss having a body for that dress. And Sutton’s shoes! Love!
Sadly I noticed one of the auction items was a 5 night stay at Beaches Turks & Caicos 😢 I had to cancel my May trip entirely and now I’m sweating my December reservation. If I have to reschedule again I’m going for a month in 2021 to make up for the missed weeks!!! My internal clocks are all fucked up now.
I love how jennerous (just made that up!) Kylie was with her donation. That crap makeup basket had to be worth at LEAST ten dollars. Thank God Kris split it with her. They are always so cheap with donations it makes me sick. 🤮
I am no lover of the Jenner/Kardashians but she literally donated 25k. Granted it is a tax write off since she isn’t actually purchasing something but still. And I feel like if I were her I would have donated more but throwing out 100k publicly might still be a bit tacky?
I feel like most of the folks there could have tossed out 100k donations without a blink of the eye. Garcelle winning a trip for 5k? I could have done that! I would have been cheaper than my twice cancelled Disney trip.
I agree that Kris Jenner was very generous!
Besides giving 25k, just showing up and being filmed has some value since she is a celebrity. (Remember that Dorinda and Sonja posing for that caterer’s Instagram was valuable enough for Ramona to get a free birthday party for 60.)
How can you make light of drinking and driving? My brother was Killed by one!
You’ll be fine. It was a statement of fact, not a billboard advocating for it. JFC.
Wow! Such a compassionate comment! Save that for a Eulogy if god forbid one of your family member gets killed by a impaired driver. JFC
She’s bragging that she is drinking and driving every Saturday night! Apparently, she thinks she’s cool.
Maybe she will us her brain next time, call an Uber and be a better person.
It was past tense. Everyone made mistakes in their early years. Now she drinks and blogs.
It actually wasn’t at all. I don’t drink and drive. And I don’t drink when I am out in the boondocks alone.
I do however drink and blog! A LOT. 🙂
And I love that you do! I can’t wait to get tipsy and watch shahs tonight. If you get the recap out before I pass out I will drunkenly respond 🙂
I just got in from Publix and exhausted and was so happy that I don’t have any recaps tonight. Then you gave me a heart attack. Then I saw that a two hour 90 day episode was scheduled. But Shahs is not until Sunday. and the 90 is a stupid MORE TO LOVE which is just a rerun they rename so my DVR records it.
I do have a recap or two to catch up on though. And there is a lot going on with Bravo today….
But I’m am just online to see if Tamar Braxton is okay, and catch my breath before I have to put away groceries and feed the dog. He needed dog food and TP was running low or I would not have gone at all.
Please. You have no idea about any experiences I have had. So take your righteousness elsewhere. I have compassion for people who have bad experiences. I don’t have compassion for people who use bad experiences to stand at a pulpit and proclaim every fucking thing said online is a trigger for them to rant and judge. Leave the dramatic outrage at the door.
Tonight was auction night in those boonies. I wish I could have been there eating sausage dog and boiled peanuts while everyone was starting at me, the interloper into their quaint little auction. Sometimes it was like weird food products up for auction, or boxes of produce (way too much for one person), or some boxes were more like things that didn’t sell at a garage sale…it was exciting to watch. I can’t remember any major thing I bought there. But the tiniest things I would bid on would drive the bidding up. There is not a lot to do in rural SC on a Saturday night when you are living there all by yourself. No movie theater, NOT EVEN A WALMART! The closest one was an hour away in Orangeburg, And no liquor stores. I’m not even sure if there were beer sales at that time. And I was afraid of the moonshine. lol
The point of mentioning it in the recap was the auctions I have been to were a far cry from Kyle’s.
I used to go to auctions when I lived in Tallahassee too. And once again anything I bid on skyrocketed. I have a huge Vogue poster of a woman in one of those veiled African sunhats riding a Zebra in the room I am in right now. I should have been able to get it for ten or twenty bucks except some dumb bitch wanted her boyfriend to buy it at all costs. I think I paid around fifty for it just to piss her off. I quite enjoy looking at it.
When I lived in SC with the drunken tractor and truck divers auction, the OJ thing happened and I was glued to my TV ever there after. And also Real World the Pedro season. So I got bored going to Redneck O Rama eventually. I don’t thing they even sold beer and wine in grocery stores then. And the liquor stores closed at like 5 or 7 pm for the night. But the auction people, they were moonshiners.
Oh and the fact that I should have called an Uber a couple of decades ago in the middle of nowhere is hysterical.
If you want to know something scandalous I did while living there, the town preacher who was single and lived on my street sometimes went to Pizza Hut in the next town over for pizza and we could buy beer there and he would come back to my house and we would smoke cigarettes and drink beer. He was a long distance bike rider and would come over the next day and swear at me (he liked to have a place to swear, lol) and complain that I made him ruin his cycling time. He used to also bring me plates froom the Sunday potlucks. The church had less than 30 members…
I could also tell stories about my Geechee student who drove home when a really bad flu hit. We were all dying. It was bad. He showed up at my house with something in a 7-11 cup and told me to drink it. I was praying for death and didn’t care anymore. I was well by morning.
That was unnecessary and super bitchy.
I didn’t think it needed to be included in TT’s story but she wasn’t making light of it. Sorry about your brother. I’ve lost a friend to a drunk driver so I get it.
Thank you Lokie. I’m sorry about your friend. It’s such an unnecessary death that can be avoided if people just used their brain. It was inappropriate statement to brag that you drive drunk every Saturday.
What on earth are you talking about? And what the hell does it have to do with an auction in the middle of nowhereville SC where a bunch of toothless old met drove to a barn where alcohol was also sold to auction of crap they had bought for resale? What glitch with your reading comprehension skills said I was driving drunk? Most of the drunk people were driving tractors or big ole lawn mowers. It was straight out of a Flannery O’Connor novel. But with your level of reading comprehension, I doubt you’ve read any of that. I was considered a city slicker because I arrived by car. Sober. Now take your drama somewhere else.
Typical!
Anytime someone calls you out on anything you gaslight and bully them.
Sober?! Doubt it.
All you talk about is how drunk you are or your anxiety.
I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt since everything on other blogs talk about the same traits you have portrayed in this thread.
Put the bottle down cause it will help get rid of the anxiety. Promise! ❤️
Chao! 👍
Are you talking to me? Can you not read either? I wrote a recap that had an auction scene. I mentioned that it was the opposite of the auctions I went to back in the day when in lived in rural South Carolina. I gave a brief description of the GINORMOUS differences and someone accused me a of being a drunk driver and made a ridiculous comment about a sibling being killed by a drunk driver that literally had nothing to do with anything I said.
You don’t seem to know what gaslighting is at all. So when I tell you to get the fuck off my site, that is not gaslighting. That is me blocking people that can’t be arsed to read the commenting rules before commenting.
And it’s Ciao!
TT it seems you left the door unlocked to the WLS & one got out.
It happens… 🙂
Interesting when Rinna said she thought Denise was “using the show” to change her image. The fourth wall is really crumbling this year and I like it.
I did see Denise eating one fry with ketchup on it shortly after they were set down.
I feel like Rinna is playing a part this year and maybe has a deal with Denise to act out a conflict or something. She’s just so different. I miss her fun, gregarious side.
Not feeling the Dorit change of heart that everyone else seems to be. She’s a piece of plastic to me who brings nothing to the show except a pretentious attitude and utter phoniness.
I was surprised Aaron didn’t tell PK to get out of his personal space. It was like a series of aggressive moves toward him, like a male intimidation/domination or something. Aaron is so Zen, though, didn’t flinch.
I guess the women made a pact to shun Camille, huh? So they don’t have to film with her? Wow!
Love, love, love Eileen–wish she would come back.
Good episode!
I agree. Lisa is trying to throw us off her crappy marriage her and her daughters eating disorder. All of the women are jealous of how much Denise Richard is loved by the fans. Doretto as I call her has nothing to contribute at all. Teddy and Sutton are a snooze fest. This season has been boring along with the fact that they are fude AF to think it’s ok to talk about threesomes with kids sitting right next to you! It’s like they are all embarrassed and taking it out on D.R.
Who is doretto?
Dorit
Something said by someone who doesn’t read the commenting rules. Or maybe someone who doesn’t know anyone’s name?
I think Dorit not being LVP’s puppet has made her less bitchy and high-strung. It was good seeing Eileen, not so good seeing Adrienne’s 8th face.
I was glad in Rinna’s confessional she finally stated what they have been skirting around since they are encouraged not to break the 4th wall:
Denise is hypocritical because this is all taking place on a highly rated, national TV show that trends every week on Twitter. You have 2 teenagers, they know, and we’ve even seen they don’t care. To say you don’t want you kids to hear, WHEN YOU’RE BEING FILMED FOR TV, is disingenuous at best.
However, their mom-shaming angle was dumb, they should have just called out the hypocrisy of being on TV and “image changing” elements from the beginning.
Denise just doesn’t have the Housewife spirit this season, it’s kind of painful to watch.
She really doesn’t seem into it. I loathe women who can not go anywhere without their husbands along for the ride. I tend to let those types idle in the acquaintance lane.
I guess the real fireworks will be next week, please put me out Denise’s misery soon.
That’s exactly what I was thinking! She wants her husband right by her side whereas the other husbands either don’t attend, or they go off to another area while their wives are filming with their co-stars.
Denise and Aaron walk up together, interact the minimum, and then leave to go have dinner elsewhere (off-site). Several times they’ve done this.
She’s barely working more than Garcelle! Garcelle only attends half the filmed events. Denise attends and then quickly leaves. It’s like clocking-in on the job.
Adrienne Maloof and Brandi have brand new overdone faces!!
Brandi has achieved full cat face and Adrienne has gone flat-out Jocelyn Wildenstein. Talk about face dysmorphia, how does Adrienne even have full vision? Awwww, Paul Nasir was there. I luhs him.
So stupid for women under 40 to do so much to their faces that they look older. If she would have left her face alone, she’d still be beautiful. My husband watched because he wanted to see her and when he did said she ruined herself.
Who’s under 40?
Brandi is 47 and Adrienne is 58.
They started messing with their faces 10 years ago which is why they look like shit now. Brandi looks like Madam the puppet
Eileen has new boobs, too!
Adrienne looked better when she was married to Paul. I know she was younger in those flashbacks but I also think he would never have let that overdone look happen. It would be too much a reflection on him.
Brandi has looked terrible for a few years. I thought she actually looked pretty nice last night.
Yes, it was sad when Paul’s new wife said “Your makeup looks amazing!” It’s a left-handed compliment to praise someone’s makeup. Can’t you just say “You look beautiful.” to be nice?
I compliment makeup all of the time. If someone is glowing yet looks natural, I want to know what they’re using. If a lip color is perfect, I want to try it. But with Adrienne, who knows. She’s had so much work done that you can’t help but stare at her face so it was prob the first appropriate thing that came to mind. I’ll never understand the full on cat lady look because it just cannot be comfortable at all.
Rinna is garbage. She’s been real friends with Denise for years, but threw her under the bus for a storyline. She must lead a very empty life.
Kyle has been kissing up to Brandi on social media for months, so it’s not just production. Also who wouldn’t be nice to everyone’s dogs? But she does throw the best parties of any of the real housewives.
I like Camille because she doesn’t hide who she is.
I think a lot more real housewives are Trump supporters than we know…they just keep their mouths shut about it.
I liked Erika at the beginning of this season, but that didn’t last long. Especially after her appearance on WWHL. PK was right, she is inherently cold.
I don’t know if I want to watch the rest of this season when it’s going to be about Brandi saying she had an affair with Denise and not to tell “because Aaron will kill her.” And the rest of the women use it as gossip and a storyline. I guess they didn’t learn their lesson with Taylor to stay out of other’s marriages.
I like Camille too. It’s sad to see a group of grown ass women behave like middle school bullies towards her. If y’all weren’t so lame there wouldn’t have been a need to bring Camille back in the first place. Get your shit together and be INTERESTING!
Erika has not had more than a couple sentences make it to air, right? I hope she gets her shit together because I love her.
Frankly Erika has become insufferable. It’s actually gross. And I’ll bet money that Kyle put together this Brandi/Denise situation. Either she heard about it and used Brandi or orchestrated with Brandi ahead of time to entice the affair. Something is off. Perhaps she’s learned a few things from LVP??!!
Seriously? Kyle is a wee bit busy to be arranging lesbian affairs (with Brandi who she was not speaking to at the time) and Denise using her magical abilities to get two women into bed so that she will have a story line. Doe any of that make sense to you?
Totally agree. Rinna is a huge asshole. She’s no friend to Denise and I’m glad Denise is smart enough to recognize what a snake in the grass she is. Are we really supposed to believe that she is showing us her life and that she’s honest? I call b.s. on that. Glad QVC dumped her.
Erika is also getting on my nerves. She’s fake AF. Denise not wanting threesome talk in front of her kids has zero to do with mommy shaming or whatever ridiculous nonsense they are spewing. I feel like they’ve latched onto one stupid issue and are ruining the season just like they did with puppy gate, panty gate ….. The NY housewives would have spent 2 minutes on this crap.
I am starting to really dislike Rinna a lot. She’s not an authentically nice person; it’s all fake. She talks about her daughters anxieties and disorders like it’s nothing. Did you see that Amelia said that her mother “forces” her to be on the show? She changed it to “encourages”, probably after being reamed by mommy dearest.
Best part of the episode was seeing Eileen SLAY the F out of that outfit. She is stunning! I don’t get why Lisa is so dismissive of Denise’s concerns? Just because she is filming a show doesn’t mean it was wrong for her to say she wanted to dial down the conversation about sex in front of her kids and their friends but no one will let that argument die. I really like Denise. I find her refreshingly normal and I love how polite she is to waiters/waitresses, doormen, limo drivers etc. Its nice to see that 🙂 I’m not sure what Camille was thinking showing up there after how unglued she was at the reunion?! Loved it when Lisa called her an asshole on twitter and then walked away lol
I agree about Lisa. She’s very cold this year. I truly think she and Denise wrote a script for themselves and are playing it out like the actresses they are. Good little trick to have a storyline and reveal less about your personal life.
100% agree, and I think they forgot it would have to play out over so many episodes.
Yes, it seems very scripted and manipulated. Rinna and Denise are pros. Aaron, on the other hand, is wooden.
I just want to say I love Eileen and was so upset she left.
Sounds like a good episode and that no drama was really started yet. Also chocolate Michael looked familiar.
Hi Maria,
I was wondering if people would recognize him. He is a screenwriter. He wrote Brown Sugar, Like Mike, and Just Wright. He was also on the OWN Series Black Love with his now ex-wife. He was also on Shark Tank after he opened Hammer and Nails which is a grooming spa/salon that caters to men. He was rejected by the sharks but when my husband and I watched the episode I thought it was purely for exposure.
What is his name? Yeah I thought he looked really familiar. He is to handsome not to remember.
Michael Fluegge. He’s hot. I just googled him. Love a black man with a grey/silver beard.
AH SHARK TANK! I know I knew him from somewhere. Thanks for the info!
I got super excited when I saw the auctioneers. They’re from that show that you bid on people’s unpaid storage units and I used to watch that all the time. Also, Brandi’s plus one is trans. That’s her former BFF Mark that used to come on the show with her all the time. He started transitioning a couple of years ago and is now Mia.
Wow Mia needs some help. She looked like she was dressed for Halloween.
The restaurant that Lisa and Denise were at is called The Penthouse and it’s in The Huntley hotel in Santa Monica. I have been there for Brunch and Happy Hour numerous times. It isn’t that expensive and the food is really good (especially the truffle fries). Depending where you sit you can have a ocean view table (the view is amazing). Not sure if they are still open or not but I highly recommend it.
As for Camille and Kyle you could totally tell that was production driven. If that were me I would rather have a colonoscopy than go to Camille’s house (regarding last year). I would have ignored her like Dorit and I probably would of said the same thing Teddie said. As for Brandi she would be the WORSE person to have a fling with, she cannot hold a secret to save her life. Whether if Denise and Brandi did hook up I could care less. It’s their business and if it is true it’s none of the women’s or our business. That’s between Denise and Aaron.
Camille and Trump? What a bummer. I just watched the Roger Stone movie on Netflix. Astonishing!
One positive: Camille looks great a few pounds heavier. Her hips looked nice!
Have a great day, everyone!
Camille is super thin in person, she’s also around 5’3. The camera definitely adds pounds and the camera seems to make people look taller as well.
I met LVP once and she was so tiny. TV really does distort reality.
I didn’t realize Camille was so small! Beautiful woman.
Ken is tiny as well. I saw him getting ready to cross the street to Villa Blanca a couple of years ago.
I want Eileen back!!!!! She is awesome and honest. I need her to be the voice of reason and call people out on their bs!
Camille sucks. She stirred the pot last season and got caught. Then she just played the victim. Plus her political views irk me, that crap about Kavanaugh last time around was painful. I feel like I could pick out most of the Housewives that love Trump. And there are plenty.
I am not understanding the Trump post. Who they back are don’t is their right. So I am sure
there are people that watch the franchises that are Trump supporters
Yes, it’s their right but it does show their true colors.
An Eileen sighting was the BEST! Also, many shows are breaking the 4th wall and I love it. It adds the BIG character that has always played a part – but we’ve ignored! The show itself! And I think what Rinna says about her show image makes the entire argument with denise make sense. When she puts her sex life on the show in such a huge way – it would lead the rest of the gals to think she is extremely open with her kids about sex. Even if they didn’t watch the show, one of their friends shared that happy ending info for sure. Not only is Dorit likeable – PK redeemed himself talking about his past mistake of getting involved.
PLEASE BRAVO – keep Sutton & garcelle and bring back EILEEN!
I love Eileen as well! She looked amazing in the episode and she’s always come across as pretty much normal. I also want my Y&R back!
I have been a big fan of Denise but it is starting to wane. She just really does not seem to want to be there and it’s getting painful to watch. The whole threesome conversation is getting so old it is reminding me of Panty-Gate and Puppy-gate where each episode is just rehashing the same stupid fight. And I hate to agree with Dorit but you can’t storm out of multiple events and insist you’re not mad! The meet up with Rinna was sad unfortunately Denise has learned the hard way that Rinna will do anything to keep that diamond. When I think of the early years of the show it was just more interesting you saw these fabulous lives and homes, the good and bad of their relationships, more organic fights, it was so much more fun to watch. Now it’s like every episode is the same – they all show up at someones fake event and fight. With the exception of Kyle and Teddi they all just don’t seem to have any real connection unless the camera is rolling. I like Garcelle but she is out of place here. Denise should leave and focus on her family.
Also Rinna shows up to the restaurant and doesn’t eat? Who goes to a fancy restaurant and orders a grapefruit juice and fries? That one really bothered me lol.
I thought Eileen and Camille looked stunning. I thought Rinna looked ridiculous.
At least Denise ordered grapefruit juice and fries. Rinna ordered a glass of water LOL!
But yes, Rinna is desperate to keep her diamond. She needs the income. She has said that when her boutique closed she and Harry were in danger of losing their house.
She no longer has her QVC gig, so the income from Housewives is very important.
She is also supporting two adult daughters. It looks like next week one is talking to a realtor about what she wants in her own home, but I doubt those girls’ new clothing line is making enough to support their lifestyle.
Yeah a lot of the housewives are trump supporters. Most of the OC cast, most of NJ cast, half of NYC, Taylor Armstrong and probably loads more, even Kyles mother in law is some weird Hardcore Trump supporter. So Camille has a lot of company. And I agree with the poster above, Kyle has been up Brandis bum on social media since the whole LVP thing went down. I don’t think it was that producer driven. Just Kyle being Mean Kyle, just this season she has no Kim or LVP to hide her actions behind. She’ll soon turn on the waterworks when it all blows up in her face though as it seems even Rinna turns on her by the end of the season.
Great recap TT!! This was a good one. I don’t understand why the women refuse to admit that when kids are around, conversations need to be monitored.
Rinna is pissing me off and very messy trying to start bs!
On a different note.. wtf was up with Dorit’s gorgeous dress losing its beads all over the place? I can only imagine how much that cost and yet it’s falling apart?
I think she worried that would happen even before they left the house. I bet it cost at least $3,000. It was very pretty. No excuse for pieces falling off.
Maybe it was from Sonja’s, I mean, Target’s collection. 😎
Dear Tamara
Thank you for your brilliant writing and the spiritual elevation it gives. Your writing changed my life, pulled me out of a tough place this last year. Thanks for getting me through seriously frightening depths of despair. Your writing is brilliant, and the forensic details crack me up, because I feel almost exactly the same way about the protagonists.
Aw, thanks Norma. Congrats for making it through to the other side! xo ~tt
Hi Tamara, i’m sorry i messed up my screen name – would you mind changing it for me? Sheepish thanks in advance.
Gotcha covered! 🙂
I was watching the first Sex & the City movie. There was a scene where Charlotte‘s young daughter Lily is at the table and they are talking about sex. They exchange the word fucking for “coloring” because the little girl is at the table with her crayons. NO EXPLANATION NEEDED about why these sexually candid (fictional) women change their speech in front of a child BECAUSE IT’S UNIVERSALLY UNDERSTOOD. Denise was asking them to be aware of the kids. I don’t think she ever DREAMED she would have to JUSTIFY her request.
And Rinna calling Denise out for trying to change her image and bringing her kids into it — what about her SHAMELESS promotion of her daughters’ fashion line? You know, the one they didn’t design one garment for, Mommy and Daddy just signed the check. I like Harry Hamlin very much, but … maybe it’s time WE TALK ABOUT THE HUSBAND. See how much Rinna likes that.
Scares me that I am liking Dorit. Her “snakes are back” and Mauricio’s “ghostbusters” were the best lines all season.
That all makes sense…if it was real life.
But, they are being filmed for a very popular national TV show. Denise is not dumb. She knows her daughters will see anything salacious she films for the TV show.
So it just reeks of desperation to fix her image. I loved her last season, but maybe she heard from her agents/managers/daughters that they didn’t like the racier stuff. Now this season she tries to tamp it down, but it just seems fake to everyone else.
I want Season 1 Denise back.
And BTW, Kyle and Teddi whining about mommy-shaming was idiotic.
thanks for recapping. i was too distracted by all of the bad plastic surgery to follow the dialog. seriously did Paul do all this because he should srep away from the scalpels. Denise, Brandi, Adrienne omg they are unrecognizable. Dorit looked good though except for the oversized headlights.
I agree Nanette. These bitches are just trying to create an issue out of nothing.
I didn’t know about TT when Eileen was on the show. I didn’t know so many people liked her as much as I do. When LVP was going in on her about falling in love with her now-husband when they were involved with others, I was getting pissed off. THAT was the beginning of me looking at LVP with new eyes. I was sad when Eileen left. She brought out the best in Erica too.
Just another season where the same lame storyline keeps getting recycled through every episode! Lymes, Kims drinking, Pantygate, puppygate, & now dinner talk in front of Denise’s kids & friends. Rinna calling everyone out on everything, always s–t stirring and deceiving long time friends and using her own children’s issues as her storyline! All deflection from ‘Let’s talk about the Husband’! Now that might be somewhat interesting! Rinna is absolutely vile!
