How is this only episode 8 of this season? How? I feel like I’ve struggles through at least a dozen RHOC Recaps this season. And they are all so repetitive! Tonight, in the aftermath of Braunwyn’s vow renewal we have a drunken Shannon causing all sorts of drama. Let’s just get on with the shit show, shall we?
We start back at the vow renewal. Shannon is drunk and confronting Kelly about the whole “tincture” versus “water” thing. Kelly doesn’t know what a tincture is. But, Kelly is trying to diffuse things. But, Shannon is drunk and not getting it. Then On we go to the reception/after party. But first, Shannon and her new man, John, and her daughters stop by the hotel room so Shannon can get more drinks. The girls bring up Shannon’s vow renewal and she gets all emotional. Because, drunk. Kelly is so inappropriate with older people. Including her own mother.

Elizabeth and her boyfriend Jimmy are not even hanging around each other at the reception. Gina and Kelly gang up on Elizabeth about not having sex with Jimmy until she is divorced. Who cares? Shannon tells Braunwyn’s kids that a vow renewal happened right before her divorce. The kids walk away laughing about how drunk she was. On a recent WWHL Shannon clearly had not seen the episode yet. She claimed she remembered everything. Then, when Andy pointed it she was the drunkest he’d ever seen her, she asked, “Was it worse than Mexico?” Yeah, Shannon, this is right up there with your drunken shenanigans.
Shannon Is Naked Wasted
Shannon can’t even form words. She is trying to fight with Kelly now about the water/tincture thing. Kelly is over Shannon’s hypocrisy of being wasted on tequila when she at Braunwyn’s reception. Elizabeth’s nonexistent sex life gets brought up again. She had sex with him once and then he found out she was married. Kelly of course has to bring up that she and Rick have sex all the time. Elizabeth seems to be more upset about her divorce than she is letting on. She also has baby fever and her “Mexican boyfriend with the big dick” doesn’t seem interested in having a baby. Braunwyn talks about her mommy issues. Shannon lies to Braunwyn about her drinking. Braunwyn’s mother was exposed to covid and gave Shannon a kiss at the reception. Is that where she got it?

The next morning calls for all the ladies to film by the pool and rehash the previous night. Shannon can’t even manage to put on clothes and is probably still drunk. None of the two breakfasts she ordered AT THE PARKER was up to her standards. She arrives in nothing but her hotel bathrobe. But first, Braunwyn, Gina and Emily go to a 7 am AA meeting. There is a lot of speculation that I cannot confirm at this time, that Braunwyn lied about being an alcoholic for a storyline. That would be right up there with Brooks faking cancer for me if true. Emily has never been to an AA meeting before. She’s not sure why she is going, but Gina invited her.
Finally, We Get To The Pool Scene
Elizabeth calls a girlfriend to cry about her divorce. She feels like a failure. The trial is coming up and she thinks the judge views her as a gold digger. Pretty much all of the women except for maybe Emily have some sort of existential crisis happening during this scene. Elizabeth tells everyone that all of Braunwyn’s kids have lice. When Braunwyn shows up she says it’s just the twins. Kelly says she hugged the twins last night.

Kelly starts her Covid rants talking about how it isn’t a thing. Tell your mama in ICU that, Kelly. I guess you can’t because she isn’t speaking to you. There were thirty deaths and this was like the first week tht everyone was supposed to quarantine. Kelly brings up that people die of the flu all the time anyway. Elizabeth is just as bad. She says the whole thing is blow out of proportion and in 60 days it will be pretty much gone. This Trumpster footage isn’t aging well. I find it difficult to feel any sympathy for Elizabeth and her divorce at this point. My gaydar pings with Elizabeth. I’m just saying. I think she is a least bi. NTTAWWT. But that could explain the no sex with her boyfriend thing.
Everyone else is very confused about Elizabeth’s situation, but I feel like there is some mismatched sexuality going on here. She’s cute. IJS. Then Kelly shoves Elizabeth in the pool. Next week: Will we solve the Elizabeth mystery? Will people in OC finally understand that Covid is a real pandemic and start wearing masks?
I decided I can’t watch this show anymore. I’m glad you do the recaps.
Kelly is ignorant & stupid. Her boyfriend is weird, homely & a Fox guy. Both are probably unhappy Trumpy lost, I am beyond thrilled,Biden is our President.
Most are spoiled & drunks.
Other then Gina, is anyone real?
What Elizabeth just said is terrible and you are so right, her words are not aging well. She made a very uneducated statement. I am sure Twitter and Instagram will come for Elizabeth Vargas tonight.
Also for someone who spends as much money as she claims to on clothes she never looks put together, she never looks stylish and her hair is unremarkable. She should be spending that clothes allowance on a stylist and quit shopping for her own clothes. She has no clue what style suits her.
It was very real of Emily and Gina to go to an AA meeting to support Braunwyn.
I think Braunwyn didn’t get any attention or love as child, and she is trying to make up for it now. Something about her just really ticks me off.
She just comes as very extra and not authentic. I don’t believe her story. I lost a parent due to cirrhosis of the liver because of alcohol, and I think she is full of shit.
I mean, look at her mom. The apple doesn’t fall far from tree. Her mom is so desperate for attention and tries to get it by her fashion. BrownWind is throwing everything, including the kitchen sink, to grasp at attention.
BrownWinds kids are F-Ed up. Look no further than these megalomaniacs .
Their covid denial pissed me off. My gaydar pinged with Elizabeth also. Dont understand their relationship. Braunwyn’s mom said is vile. So beyond fake. She has mommy issues. Kelly needs to stop talking about sex, it’s overkill. What the he’ll Shannon. Mortification 10 times. She’s pathetic. The egg scene and her complaining, STFU and just eat. That boyfriend enables her. Hubby watched the last 15 and wouldn’t shut up about them, bitching like he does at non-mask wearers…..
Best part was Kelly shoving Elizabeth in the pool telling her it was a “get over your husband” spa. Elizabeth is hanging on, like Emily said and needs to get on with her own life. I like Elizabeth though, she doesn’t go after any of the other women in a cruel or hurtful way (that’s saying something being a Housewife). Shannon has a nice man who seems to be in need of something she has – I just hope it’s more than the job Shannon’s company offers him and his daughter.
Kelly will forever remain unwoke about her own narcissism. Gina and Emily are good friends again, thank goodness and I love watching them. Braunwyn seems happier than I ever remember.
I like Elizabeth! She seems happy. Who cares if she’s not Stylish? At least she has an upbeat attitude! I dont miss Tamera of Vikki at all. I like this group of women!
ELizabeth seems happy? Did you watch the episode? She’s literally having a mental breakdown.
So at the reunion, they will have a tape of Shannon saying Gina’s house is “SAD”? The word of this season…which it is…SAD!
Shannon is so cringeworthy. Eat the whole damn egg you ninny! Her man is going to run really soon. She was f’d up at that party. If you can’t form words you need to stop drinking. David was an ass but I couldn’t image being married to that loon!
The night before she would’ve eaten food off the floor. The next morning, the eggs had the yolks, the scrambled egg whites were runny. I see why David got sick of her. I’m sick of her!
Shannon is not in love with her dude. He is too soft for her. She looks desperate when wasted. Perhaps she is the one who needs AA. I’m
It wouldn’t surprise me if this was solely for a storyline with Braunwyn – she has always seemed like she was playing a role
I wanted to like this season and support it once they got rid of Tamra and Vicki but I cannot so thank you for the recaps!
OMG the state of Shannon, I was embarrassed just watching her. I don’t like her bloke, he give’s me Steve Lodge vibes, like he’s in it for the exposure, how else can you explain him not pulling her to one side and telling her to pull herself together. The way she behaved at the party was appalling.
Shannon was sooooooo embarrassing!!!! When she was talking to Braunwyns kids…. I – uhhhh- omggg – she got right under the covers once she saw herself in that episode.
Funny that I also got gay vibes from Elizabeth. Is this maybe a “boyfriend on contract” situation? She couldn’t keep the details of their contract straight even. I did like that conversation they all had with her by the pool. It came off as genuine and natural.
I think that was the best vow renewal by Bravo. The party after looked nice!
This episode made me mad. These ladies lead such frivolous, simple-minded lives. Elizabeth I needs to move on. If you can’t get your life together 5 years after a breakup, you have a problem with codependency. She gets $31,000 a month in spousal support (supposedly). I know most of this was filmed prior/during the covid beginnings. These spoiled ladies acting so entitled and hard done by is mind boggling more than ever! Who needs $31,000 a month? How about sick people in your country who can’t afford health care, or single moms with REAL jobs barely able to pay rent. I think I’ll just read your great recaps from now on. I get way too worked up when I actually watch the show.
TT, they won’t be wearing masks for quite awhile. Remember back in March, Dr. Fauci and all of the doctors were telling everyone NOT to wear masks?
RHOC sucks now, it’s very hard to watch it. It’s just something to fall asleep to now.
Yes, I remember that. I knew at the time that was a lie. The first lie was told because they wanted all the masks for frontline healthcare workers. It was too late by then, there wasn’t a mask to be found. I got a late start looking for masks in the first week of March. Nary a one to be found. The next lie was that masks magically only worked one way as if it kept the virus from leaving the mask, but did not stop the virus from traveling the other way. The mask thing was totally botched I get they needed the masks for the first responders, but that lie made a large part of the population believe that masks don’t do anything. Those lies are why we are in this mess as deep as we are.
HOWEVER, there did come a time when the task force basically reversed course, and most logical thinkers knew all along that they would and had been wearing them all along. A large part of the population however believes the task force was telling the truth the first time and still refuse to wear masks. Many of the RHOC fall into that category and we will only see them wearing them while filming eventually because PRODUCTION mandated it. But many of them are still going out to clubs in Vegas and not wearing masks. It will be interesting to see how Gina and Kelly in particular respond to Shannon and her whole family getting COVID this season.
Braunwyn is so annoying….this alcoholism story seems very fake/ far fetched. I hope I’m wrong bc this would be a new low after the fake cancer crap and I will officially turn off this show for good.
Shannon…. was mortifying during the vow renewal. OMG…she is so high maintenance and negative. – just eat the damn eggs and shut up.
