Heather Thomson Quit RHONY Mid-Season

April 29, 2021 by tamaratattles 27 Comments

Heather Thomson made several appearances on the upcoming RHONY season. At first it seems she thought it would be fun to pop in here and there. She quickly remembered all of the reasons why she left the first time. It sounds like being assaulted by another housewife was the last straw for her. She didn’t name the housewife, but it was clear that she had some problems with both Leah and Eboni. The speculation is that Leah is the one who “assaulted” her.

Heather said that some people on the cast are only there for fame and fortune. They will do anything and saw anything to keep their spot. The cast members there for that reason turn in to nasty people who will do some pretty nasty things. Heather Thomson felt really ganged up on by all the girls. They brought up her podcast with Carol Radziwill, which apparently they all listen to, and threw that in her face.  She told Friends of Dorothy podcast, “They kept accusing me of talking shit about them behind their backs.” She points out to the hosts of Friends of Dorothy that they kept saying she was saying bad things about her in the press. But. it was her podcast and she was talking about her experiences on the show. “They said I was saying Luann was doing all sorts of drugs. I never said that. I said hard drugs came out and I wasn’t into it. That is all it was.”

Heather Thompson Dropped Out About Halfway Thru The Season

Heather had enough about halfway through filming. She said the show is a lot different now. Heather really wanted to talk to Sonja since she never really had resolution there. In particular, she wanted to talk about the toaster oven and why it was so important to Sonja and why she pushed back on the idea a bit. She says they did get some time to talk but she is not sure if it will make it to air. She was there to be a positive voice but instead everyone wanted to spend their time being nasty to her and trying to take her down. Someone on the cast apparently thinks she is the “queen bee.” In my opinion, they all seem to think that on RHONY.

Toward the end of the podcast she makes it clear that the girls who were on the show with her before were happy to see her. It is “the new girls”  (Leah and Eboni) who were awful to her. She felt like she wasn’t able to bring positivity or uplift the show in any way. Her son who is now a teenager wanted to watch the show since she was going to be on it. So they selected a random episode and it was Leah topless and raging drunk throwing tiki torches. He was appalled. She promised him that she would not be action like that. And about halfway through she had enough of the negativity.

    I loved Heather during RHONY Seasons 5-7, and I’ve been trying to keep an open mind about her appearance during the upcoming season. I just started to wonder what was going on when I started to catch the rumors about her quitting mid-season. Now that we’re hearing more of her side of the story, I guess we’ll have to wait and see what ends up on the show.

    Lol, Leah is the new Sonja drunk/destructive fun gal. Personally I’d be thrilled if they never brought up the toaster over again, even Sonja is over it. Uplift the housewives, precious thought!

    I love heather, but what did she expect? All of the housewives are like that now. It’s no longer about rich friends having fun and actual drama. Now it’s just manufactured, repetitive bullshit that’s hard to watch.

      I agree also. It’s like wash, rinse, repeat. Drink, get drunk, attack each other. Who needs this?

    Have always like and respected Heather and was so happy to hear that she was returning, but no surprise if Leah, once again, in her histrionic, “look at me” way, acted a fool. Featuring people like Leah and is going to send RHONY down the toilet, like the other HW shows. “They” just can’t seem to see it.

      Something tells me that I’m not going to like Leah this season. I’d of knocked her out if she called me a Karen.

    Awww, I loved Heather and have missed her energy. She is right, the show has changed. I think they have all become kind of tabloid trashy (all the HW, SC, Shahs , and BD ) I can see her not fitting in. She always had a little more class then the rest even back then.

    I like Leah in some ways but she can be a bit much after awhile. NY has always been my favorite but it has been losing it’s appeal these last few drunken years.

    I used to like Heather when she was on but since she left I have soured on her. She talks so much crap about the show and the cast members. Always with the put down jokes just like Carole Radziwill. It’s like you left and said negative things in every interview that you were asked… so why go back and expect good times? Maybe she thought bc she made a dinner party cameo last season she would be welcomed with open arms. Plus I never liked her “Holla”. Constantly mentioning P. Diddy and other people in the hip hop industry like she had street cred to “holla” at everyone. She tries too hard. And if she was planning on coming on to talk about, what feels like a decade old, toaster oven, Get A Life! No wonder she was dressed down as a Karen.

    I love her but she’s way too mature for this show. They only do well if they’ll get blind drunk, fall in bushes and flip tables. Some days I would make a great Real Housewife.

    I’m sad to read about Heather “holla” Thompson. In a perfect world I would’ve want Mama Holla and Leah to take down Ramona. Curious to see if Heather and Bershan will be getting confessions like Elyse did last season.

    I don’t like Heather and I don’t like Leah, so when I saw that they would be clashing I actually got pretty excited lol. May the best housewife win, and it looks like Leah won.

    On the same note, Ebony calling Leah her “sister” has me worried. I really want to like her.

    I saw Eboni on Wendy Williams. She pretty much said her and Leah were tight. I guess she clashes with the OGs? She’s another twerker…Oy Vey!

    I know people really loved Leah last season, but I maintained she was going to ruin the show. And here we are.

    I liked Heather a lot on the show – I don’t follow her so I have no idea what she is doing or saying currently.

    I appreciate women who truly have fuck you money like Heather or even Bethenny and can leave the show before they get dragged down.

    I really wish the show would get back to its original premise of having rich sophisticated New Yorkers. I realize that Leah is supposed to drive a younger hipper demographic to the show but her exhibitionist alcoholic fueled rampages aren’t fun to watch at all.

    Sonja at least brought the Gray Gardens vibe to the show so I found her amusing even when she was drunk and theoretically acting in a vulgar manner. Losing her tooth and accidentally forgetting her panties when she wore the Bo Peep. Washing her face in the bidet and in generally dealing with no longer yachting with John John LOL. But Leah throwing tiki torches and twerking at the dinner table is just vulgar and not amusing because she isn’t Gray Gardens – she is just a mentally stable woman who is basically relying on her income from the show – she was never upper class – she never did anything of interest – she never divorced anyone who was upper class. I can walk out my door and mingle with women like her if I so desired.

      I find it fascinating that you think Sonja acting like a crazy woman and humiliating herself is funny while Leah is just obnoxious?

      I think the representation by both of them as NY Women and Women period is sad and not “entertaining” any more at all.

      These shows no longer have anyone who exhibits class. All of these shows have turned into an making woman look cheap, crazy and desperate.

        As i wrote, Sonja has the Gray Gardens delusional thing going which is amusing to me because she actually was once in that rank and she can’t let it go. Leah is just a middle class drunk with a bipolar disorder. She has nothing of interest except her awful behavior. Sonja was amusing to me even when drunk. Leah was just obnoxious.

      That’s what I’m saying. I don’t get why Leah was hired for this show. She doesn’t have the money or status. She doesn’t fit. Let’s face it, she’s jealous of Heather’s success and wanted to take her down. No one’s buying married to the mob schmatas.

        She was hired because Bravo (and by extension, NBC Universal) truly seem to believe that “younger is better”. Their ageism and stupidity is going to drive all of these shows (and if things keep going in this direction), the entire Bravo network, down the tubes. I’d love to see a show devoted to young 20-35 ish New Yorkers, that was authentic and real. I’d be there for it. But artificially “inserting” these 40 something women (who are NOT young, by the way) into the established friend group is just fake, and we all see through it. I watched the old RHONY this morning, and the early seasons were SO good, seeing what’s become to this (and the other Bravo series) makes me want to cry. No drunken, screaming, twerking in sight. Idiots are calling the shots now,

          I so agree with all of this. The fact that Heather wasn’t a good fit now speaks volumes. But Heather, of course, has many things Leah does not: stability, a loving family, a serious business, the confidence to walk away from a show when it isn’t working for her, the ability to control herself.

    I’d take Holla Momma Heather over poseur Leah any day. Sad but production seems to have lost a grip on this show. Last season was absolutely the worst in RHONY history–nary a redeeming moment.
