Remember back in November of 2019 when all of Tinsley Mortimer’s dreams finally came true when Scott Kluth finally proposed? And then Tinsley quit RHONY to move to Chicago to live happily ever after? Well, that didn’t happen. Today Scott told People Magazine that they have broken up.
“After fourteen months of engagement, Tinsley and I have ended our relationship, and we have been living independently for the last few months,” Kluth, 40, tells PEOPLE in a statement. “This was an incredibly difficult decision, but it is one that I believe is best for both of us. I will always care about Tinsley and I sincerely wish her happiness and success in all that she does in the future. While I understand this news will be of interest to many, I ask for privacy and understanding during this time as I continue to work on recovering emotionally from the end of our relationship.”
The worst part of this news is that Tinsley was apparently blindsided by the announcement. But she must have had an inkling since Scott says they have been living separately for a few months. Poor Tinsley. Does she get to keep the ring?
Is it just moi, or perhaps does Tinsley need to finally give up on Scott? It just doesn’t seem like he’s willing to commit to a long-term relationship. It’s been so sad to see Tinsley try and try and try to make this work, just for Scott to slip away and announce that they’re calling it quits (yet again).
No kidding! He’s an ass
Agreed!
Yes 100 times yes ( but I still think she might go back given the chance).
Ouch, poor Tinsley.
Do you think they’ll get back together…again…? Or do you think this is *it*?? His statement does reference the “end of our relationship” but I guess I’m just skeptical that this is over for good.
Look at her instagram – she’s posting all the memes & commiserations – and lobbying for her job back on RHONY! She looks to be having a sense of humour about it.
I like Tinsley – he’s not good enough for her.
I agree. He is not good enough for her. To think she quit RHONY and moved to Chicago for him. Poor Tinsley.
Oh my goodness, poor Tinsley, I feel awful for her! She wants a family (or at least a husband) so badly. It’s hard to rebound from something like this in your forties. Awful, terrible, no good news….
Oh man not a statement lol. Hopefully this opens the door for Tinsley to return to the show though.
$100 says he has a new girlfriend.
Poor Tins.
I think you’re right, unfortunately for Tinsley.
A new girlfriend who will turn up pregnant far too soon.. rubbing salt in the wound.
Oh God. That would kill her.
I feel like Tinsley will be unfreezing some eggs very soon, if she hasn’t already. OMG what if she has already planted an egg?
If it’s important to her to have a baby, I hope she goes ahead and does it by herself, rather than hurrying to find a man to have one with.
I think it’s more important to have a man take care of her. No blame. But it’s the family unit she wants because if she really wanted a baby she would have had one by now.
I hope so! That would be a great direction for her to go in & would be great TV material … hello RHONYC
Boycott Coupon Cabin!
That is the STUPIDIST name ever for a company, anyway.
I am glad Tins has her pups to keep her company.
I cannot cosign this boycott. I use it all the time.
I hope she finds happiness by herself or with a different great guy. I think she needs to be OVER with Scott for good. What a mess! Dorinda is probably gloating.
Hoping she comes back to RHONY! Love her and Leah on there!
I feel bad for her – she put her career aside for him several times, just to be dumped multiple times. And we all know how badly she wants marriage & a family. I hope she doesn’t take him back. She needs to move on, which, I know, is easier said than done.
I know we didn’t see much footage of them together, but I never saw any real spark or chemistry between them. It just always came across like she was fawning over him. I could understand the dynamic more if he was really a “private” kind of guy, but he isn’t really. She should have a man fawning all over her.
Agreed.
I agree as well.
Yes, keep the ring!
She’s too pretty girl him any way. I obviously don’t know him, but she seems like she’s too nice for him too. I hope she runs for the hills and never looks back.
Bethenny and Dorinda seemed to think Tinsley was always being dishonest so I believe Scott when he says he called it off months ago however I do feel bad for her that she gave up her life in NYC to be with him.
What life? Living out of a Hotel room. Most people when they are in a committed relationship move with their partner. Tins doesn’t seem to be able to hold down any roots. Not her fault. Too much money. I really like her though. I just don’w think she is marriage material.
I did not expect to like Tinsley but she is very sweet and funny. Tinsley deserves to have someone in her life who adores her and Scott was never going to be that guy.
If Bravo lets Tinsley comes back, but not Dorinda, her head will explode.
I’ll probably be laughed at for this (cuz, the show is “so 1990’s and the themes are not “current”), but being a romantic and an unabashed, unashamed and forever loyal Sex and The City addict, I want so badly for Tins to find her Mr. Big!!!!! Maybe she thought Scott was that (and their break up – make up pattern seems analogous to Carrie and Mr. Big), but Scott is NO Christopher Noth…
Scott is Berger. The Post It Note guy.
Haha!!!! Yes he is!! My favorite scene is when Carrie and Samantha get caught by the cops and Carrie shoes the post it note through the car window. Tinsley needs to be done with this dude. His behavior is abusive. She never felt safe and settled until she had that ring and look what he did. Scott is a F*ck Boy.
Hi Pauline- he sure as hell is a fuck boy, and the post it note on the car window was a stand out scene for me (among so many). Oh, don’t get me started on Sex and The City- it could go on and on- hah!
I liked the Post It Note guy…. 🙁
Me too! I really liked Berger. Thought I was the only one!
And yes, that weed scene was hilarious, and it was so realistic when Carrie couldn’t stop laughing in the diner over the banana split…
Berger is super hot!
Yup. Also, I am up at four am watching Sex In The City on E! They have marathons every night it seems and I can’t remember what if anything I had to eat todayyesterday. So Season two from 1999 is like watching the show for the first time.
Actually, in 1999 I probably didn’t watch it at all. I was out dating and partying most nights.
THAT is everything! Berger never did it for me. Tinley deserves furniture maker guy who will wear the baby in the baby bjorn thing.
Yaas! Scott is so totally Berger. Couldn’t stand that guy- it fits!
good riddance Tinsley, you deserve better.
If he didn’t want to be married to her, I’m glad he broke it off. But it took him 14 months to decide – in addition to having her give up everything and move?!? Low blows.
I just hope she doesn’t go back to him if he comes calling again.
He lives in the Hancock next to Water Tower in Chicago. The neighborhood has gone to hell. Car-jackings, hold-ups, muggings, gun shots from the ground into windows of the high rises. Last week, a dry cleaning truck got held up and all the expensive dry cleaning stolen. She should be glad she’s leaving that hell hole which is going the way of Detroit unless they get these little shit thugs under control which will not happen with the current mayor and the strange Kim Fox who doesn’t believe in bail or jail. Other than that, I never like Scott. Don’t know what she saw in him. Rumor has it he’s a cheater and has always been.
Wow I lived in Glenview briefly during my awkward middle school years and Water Tower Place was like the Eiffel Tower or something of Chicago and where all the rich people stores were. Sad to hear it’s not a nice place anymore.
I have ABSOLUTELY nothing in common with Tinsley as a Black woman who works for a living (other than my daddy thought I was a princess too). I never thought I’d bond so much with Tinsley, but I have. I sense that at heart, she’s a good person and I ALWAYS thought Scott wasn’t good enough for her. It made my ass itch that she didn’t think the same thing and always seemed to be chasing after him and acting like his bloated ass was the only man on earth who would commit to her and love her. HE IS TRASH and I’m sorry that she wasted so much time on him, but I’m glad that she is free now to explore someone who can love her the way she deserves to be loved.
Feel terrible for Tinsley with all Scott has put her through. She needs to pursue a baby (she’s 45) on her own (if that’s what she really wants) and give up the ‘Prince Charming’ dream. Scott was no Prince Charming! just an evil toad w/money! I wish Tinsley the best and hope the right man comes along at some point but she can’t plan her life around a man.
We need a RH of Chicago and Tinsley can be part of the original cast.
Typical behavior by a bloated nerd who became rich. He’s getting back at all the tinsley’s who wouldn’t look twice at him when he was in high school but now fawn all over him because he has money. The worst type of guy.
Tinsley’s old school. She won’t have a baby without having a man. She wants a family and I don’t blame her.
I agree with those who think Tinsley should go back to RHONY. She’s a great fit and also nice. Which is needed on the show! She may find her dream guy there- at least I hope so!! And yes, that would make Dorinda’s head explode. 🙂
Oh, to be a fly on the wall when and if Dorinda ever received the news that Tins was returning. I feel a sense of evil glee just thinking of it…
That would be delicious. 🙂
I really do like Tinsley, she is superficial but in a sweet way.
She has a wonderful mother and sister to help her through.
But wow Scott really couldn’t make up his mind.
And she was posting new pictures still with her ring and she posted him on Valentines.
I bet she did know he broke it off but was wishful thinking because he has done this a few times.
I do hate to say that I agree with another commenter that maybe Dorinda is a bit glowing about this, I hope not.
Tinsely can unfreeze her eggs and have her baby with frozen sperm. She is rich, she honestly can do it herself and if she finds a man who truly loves her then he will understand her story and accept the baby.
I wish her the best and I sure hope she moves out of Chicago and back to Palm Beach, or else it is like she is begging Scott. And I hope she comes back to RHONY.
Even though I fear the RHONY is on it’s way out now that they had to add women that are really not friends with the other women to be “politically correct”.
I blame that liberal moron Carole Radizwill for hooking them up…..LMFAO (I got to add a dig to Carole and I love it) Carole if your out there, you can promote your own race and culture too, your Italian, your last name is DeFalco!
I know, right? I thought about the fact that Ms. self-righteous Carole had set them up. Shows she’s probably a snobby poser, with no actual common sense or sensitivity when it comes to real people and real relationships. If you’re a person who is tuned in and halfway sensitive, you usually know what your besties need in a man. But she’s too busy being “current” and “too cool for school”.
