Ah, the perks of being rich. This “friend” on a real housewives show paid a PR person to make sure that her appalling behavior was not revealed on the show. Despite the cameras rolling at all times, sources say there is no footage of the behavior. If I have to guess I’d say production was hit with a huge lawsuit.
But wait! There’s more, the lawyers dealt with the legal stuff, allegedly, and the PR person was specifically hired to change the narrative on social media and get people off the topic. The guy was actually pretty good, I don’t think the abhorrent behavior was really reported by major tabloids. I don’t read them much so I could be wrong about that. The PR person began targeting the main person who was calling out the “Friend of” for her aborhorent behavior. INCLUDING POSTING HER PHONE NUMBER ON SOCIAL MEDIA! That’s fucked up! He planted all sorts of stories about the truth teller and also manage to smear her husband. Shockingly that smear campaign was very similar to what the “friend of” was accused of.
Money can’t buy you class, but apparently it can save your ass.
Updated to add…
I’m now suspicious of the “PR GUY”. He just posted this on his own. It’s totally possible he made it all up and is just seeking attention.
I mean he doesn’t even know how capital letters work.
Friend – Kathy & Main person – Rinna
Maybe I’m wrong thinking this but isn’t the PR person doing the same thing that Rinna does on the show? in the show she changes the narrative to make the person she going targeting the bad person or be scene a certain way. She did this to Denise, Kim, Brandi, LVP (has done this herself to others) and Yolanda (not the best example). But stays quiet for Erika’s situation which is worst than what anyone has done. Not condoning what Kathy did or said but it seems like any slip up any of the ladies have, Rinna and Erika will use that and run with it.
IMO kathy was the target this season because she was such a fan favorite last season while social media hated Erika and Rinna. By them going after Kathy and (to a lesser extent) Sutton they are changing the narrative away from widows, orphans and lawsuits and making other catch that heat they should be receiving.
This! Yes.
(in response to the above comment)
Oooohhhhhh this is so juicy!
Post updated I am starting to be skeptical of the “PR Guy” see newest post.
The Kathy Hilton rumors are surrounding he comments she allegedly made in Aspen. My source claims they must have been said off camera because there is not film of that. Never believed. She allegedly used a racial slur that starts with N and a homophobic slur that starts with F. I feel like that would have been filmed. Note, my source didn’t say it didn’t happen just that “It must have happened off camera.”
I totally believe that she may have hired someone to shut Rinna up about it and she could also have paid off production to not air it. That said, this kid seems THIRSTY.
I actually do believe she used the racial slurs based on her kids old clips saying the same at various times. Lisa said this is all came from their mom (meaning Kyle and Kathy’s)…. Argh so messy! Great tea TT!
My dad used them and I never have. People learn to be racist or learn not to be. Thank goodness for my mom and grandparents.
I’ve read that Sutton and her assistant both denied this happened and Garcelle and Sheree both seem to remain close to Kathy – attending her birthday, having her on The Real, etc. If the allegations really are true then I don’t know what to think of them allying with someone who supposedly uses racist and homophobic language? It all doesn’t add up. Also to make this even crazier Rinna, Kathy and the rest of the cast (minus Diana) were all on stage together at the MTV Award filming last night while Rinna was tweeting and posting stories with all this “tea”. Craziness.
What did she post? Where?
Don’t understand. Why would a great PR person get all that accomplished, wiped clean, nothing to see here —and then clumsily open the door for it all to be back in the news. What is there for him to gain by doing that? Who would use him in the future?
LVP. He is right up her alley!
And now someone sent this post from REDDITT
I listened so you don’t have to: Blonde Hair, Black Heart: Doxxed and Dangerous with Patrick Somers
Beverly Hills
Blake begins by introducing his guest, Patrick Somers aka the guy that Lisa Rinna doxxed on instagram. And we’re off!
-Patrick wants everyone to know that he’s not some random. He owns a fashion company that the likes of Ariana Grande subscribe to
-Patrick says there was a new show, the rights were sold. He met Rinna at a meeting for said show. Says she was very sweet the first time they met. He didn’t have issues with her until their second introduction to one another.
-It’s difficult to differentiate what is real and what is staged with reality tv. Patrick assures us that Rinna’s latest stunt is not for PR. Their feud is real, honey!
-Rinna texted Patrick first. When she posted on instagram, she deleted her original text to make it look like Patrick texted her out of the clear blue sky
-Rinna never expected Patrick to call her skinny ass out and when he did she doubled down rather than own up to her assholery
-Apparently Rinna made an insensitive comment that Patrick didn’t like. Rinna texted him to apologize for making him uncomfortable, Patrick waited a few days to reply and when he did he let her have it
-Patrick doesn’t appreciate being used as a pawn in Rinna’s latest storyline for housewives (lol)
-Lisa leaked Patrick’s personal phone number. It’s linked to his bank accounts, apps like Zelle and Venmo, everything. Not to mention being bombarded by thousands of Lisa’s trolls first thing in the morning
-People began commenting on Patrick’s looks and personally attacking him
-Blake tells him to be prepared for when his new show comes out because the trolls will be out in full force (something tells me Blake peruses this subreddit)
-Patrick says the comment Lisa made wasn’t racist, but had to do with the color of his skin. In the context of the conversation they were having in the moment, Lisa’s comment was inappropriate and insensitive
-He found out Lisa doxxed him from his assistant
-Patrick again mentions that he’s surprised people don’t know him because he’s been in Forbes
-He doxxed Rinna because “nobody is going to step on” Patrick. He’s not afraid of going head to head and he’s taking her to court. Rinna has 15 days to respond, he has not yet received a response from her attorney
-In the days following the doxxing, Rinna is posting sporadic stories on instagram, from a nude to grieving her mother, which Patrick, Blake and myself find bizarre
-Let’s talk about the husband: Patrick says Harry Hamlin is running around on Lisa. The circle in LA is small and they like to talk. Patrick would never out someone because it’s pride month. Open marriages are common in LA!
-Rinna has no problem pointing a lot of fingers at other people, it’s time people point fingers at her
-Essentially, the entire 19 minutes of this podcast are a huge shit fest on ‘ol lips Lisa Rinna. Entertaining though!
Blond Hair, Black Heart is wanting an apology and feels horrible for being a part of this.
Wait, WHAT??? How do I find the podcast?!!! I am stuck on EDB with I HAVE QUESTIONS!!!
Oh! Sorry you listened so we don’t have to!! Duh!!! Sorry-
This gets more confusing by the day. And his post above? Apart from the capital letter issue, he also seems to have skipped apostrophes. Maybe the assistant that alerted him to Rinna’s doxxing wrote this? Because a seasoned PR person (who also has an Ariana Grande level successful ‘fashion business’?) would surely better understand how media statements work, on whatever platform.
He is giving me the same kind of vibe that the guy from Vanderpump Dogs – can’t remember his name now, SURPRISINGLY! – John something? But it was always the first name and surname together, whenever Puppygate was mentioned. And it was mentioned continuously at the time, we couldn’t get away from it.
Thanks for the tea. I’ve been hearing bits and bobs. I even sat through Heather McDonald – who believes she’s a legal expert and reliably gets anything legal totally wrong, which amuses me – and came away even more confused.
So is he now saying that it was all part of a PR campaign he was hired and paid for, and that anything that happened or was said by him over the course of said campaign is not necessarily true, because that’s PR and anything is fair game? And he would never – although he did? Does this mean Rinna ISN’T a hunchback?!
It seems like two thirst buckets found one another and went at it. I understand that much!
For someone whose livelihood depends on words, PS surprisingly lacks basic grammar skills. Not only is it poorly written, but in my 35 years in the PR/Crisis Communications business, I’ve never seen a statement like that from a practicing professional. If he was working for me he’d be fired.
Yep!
This is all so crazy! What do you think of the amount that he said he was paid, $27,527.72? $30,000 too much? It’s hard to believe he’d be that stupid to speak out knowing he signed a NDA and obviously alluding to the fact that it was Kathy. Even if it was PR move, so much happened so quickly each day that there was hardly any time to wrap you head around what was going on.
His statement is so strange because how could Lisa Rinna doxx him if they haven’t had any communication? Lol. I think these two did have some issue and then she and Harry threatened to sue, but this was an agreed upon settlement. We will see if Kathy takes any action, although she’s not named anywhere, but it’s most certainly implied that it’s her.
Also if Kathy was saying such hateful things I don’t understand how Garcelle, Crystal, and Sutton are all still hanging out with her. RHOBH is always messy on social media thanks to Rinna.
I am legit confused. So did this guy do Kathy Hilton’s dirty work or nah? It seems like he has/had issues with Rinna on his own interactions with her and then he latched on this Kathy vs/ Rinna fight and started attacking Rinna on his own accord. From what I’m gathering, it seems like Rinna is trying to kill two birds with one stone and not “own it” with this fellow so she’s bringing Kathy into it to tarnish this dude that he’s doing Kathy’s dirty work, he co-signed that story and now is back tracking that he has issues with Rinna? Am I stretching/wrong here? I’m confused lol.
As for Kathy, she is extremely close with Garcelle, Crystal, and Sutton so these racial comments/rumors just don’t make sense to me at all. Those 3 strike me as they would put up with that shit if they heard it or even heard the tussle on that Aspen trip.
I do agree Erika and Rinna are working together to get the heat off of them by coming for the easiest target: Kathy Hilton. Sutton, Crystal, and Garcelle aren’t on their side. Neither will Kyle be on her side which will, for me, make sense that Rinna will plan the other takedown: Kathy trashes Kyle. And Rinna will go full throttle to get the heat away from herself and Erika.
I love Rinna. She always knows and understands the assignment lol.
So..
Who’s the good guy and who is the bad guy ?
I’m so confused.
I’ve been sick of Rinna ever since she threw that glass which shattered all over the table and the people sitting at it when they were where? Amsterdam? They were on a trip. There is zero excuse for that kind of RAGE unless there is something she’s hiding. IMHO. Something she is hiding.
Kathy Hilton is not stupid. There’s no way she hired this person. It seems like Lisa Rinna is unraveling. The bigger question in my mind is whether Kyle will defend her sister. How can she film with Rinna?
You failed to mention that she posted his phone number first.
Yeah. I came into this kind of in the middle. I just watched Up and Adam try to explain the whole thing. It’s still very confusing. Adam also says he has found no ties between Patrick and Kathy. Not sure how he did that. I’ll have to look for older videos of his.
now the guy is claiming Rinna put him up to this
what a bizarre drama
Do not trust Rinna.
