I think she's become SO adept at guilt-tripping her family that they just hand over the cash to get rid of her and not have to think about her perpetual fuck-ups. Her contract probably DID prevent her from doing such a thing, but since when has little Kimmy ever let integrity stand in her way of doing as she damn well pleases? It's not like Bravo can collect on a judgment if it sues her broke little ass.

What do you mean - she was wasted in that interview!

I suppose to the non-landlords here, the photos don't look so terrible. But I guarantee you that whoever owns that house is spending many thousands of dollars to get it back into rentable condition. If the security deposit was the standard (equal to one month's rent) it won't cover half of the cost of restoring that house to the appearance seen in the "before" photos. Back on the house hunt, but guess what?? Even if she could get someone to co-sign for her (which is seriously in question at this point), any landlord or management company worth their salt will check up on her record at the previous rental, and that, boys and girls, will be the kiss of death for little Kimmy in terms of being able to rent under her own name. Because Star Magazine published these photos, I can envision any rental agent she goes refusing her, and those that would rent to her would demand a HUGE security deposit. I'm guessing little Kimmy will be reduced to renting a studio apartment in Hollyweird.

These luxury rehabs are hella expensive, too!! My daughter's MIL checked in to Betty Ford in Rancho Mirage last year and stayed for about a week. But at check-in you pay for the whole month to the tune of $30,000 to $50,000. You don't get a refund, either, if you don't complete the program. So, do the math for little Kimmie. This bitch has flushed probably $150,000 (you KNOW its someone else's money) in the past year, and she's STILL drinking and drugging off the rails. No bloody wonder her family has washed their hands of her.

My friend said during the early part of her membership, Tams was rarely present -- it was Eddie and one assistant (the towel folder?). When Tamra DID show up, it was with her little entourage of friends who came with her to work out, and those were the only ones she actually spoke to (besides Eddie, of course). The members she pretty much couldn't be bothered with.

Thank you RedHawk!

Well if that's her strategy, she sure isn't driving that thought to its logical conclusion. I mean, the existence of those kids certainly didn't result in his staying married to their own mothers, so WTF??

The woman who sits in the cubicle next to me at work belongs to Cut Fitness and takes Eddie's spin class 3 days a week. (She lives way out there in BFE -- I mean Rancho Santa Margarita.) She told me that she thinks Eddie is a great instructor and a genuine sweetheart, and everyone in his classes admires his technical knowledge and ability to motivate people to do their best effort. She has said that Tams is jealous of any attention he gives to his female students -- whenever she's there. My friend has been a member for close to a year now and said Tamra has only recently started acknowledging her "hello" when she arrives - Tams basically ignored the members completely. So Tammy Sue's reawakened interest in selling real estate is not surprising, and I dont doubt she's doing her level best to sabotage Eddie's relative success with attracting members and keeping the place going.

Amen.

Well -- girlfriend would just whip out the ol' utility knife and castrate that bastard tut de suite. And then clean out the bank accounts.

Well, you've seen the father haven't you?

Honestly, I died!!!

Jeez, yes!! Took the words right out of my mouth. Did Carole really stand in front of the mirror that day and say "yep, totally chic"?

Heh-heh. Mr. Thrax said he thought Jimmy was so oddball looking that "he'd get no ass at all if he hadn't been a major league baseball player".

Where'd you get a photo of my cat??

In fact, Carole's husband wasn't actually a prince -- and neither was his father who claimed the title even after he fled Poland during WWII to become a British citizen. Anthony's father was the THIRD son of Janusz Franciszek, Prince Radziwiłł, so was unlikely to ever ascend the throne. But Stas's ego was still huge, so after becoming a British citizen, he requested permission to use his "former title", but his request was denied. Anthony's mother, Lee Bouvier, (Jackie's sister) was Stas's third wife. Although Anthony's father continued to use the title without permission, it was considered tres gauche, and Anthony had even less right to claim the title Prince.

It looks like I am the only one who didnt get a favorable impression of dorito. maybe it was seeing that insufferable brat of hers in action or perhaps it was the romantic luncheon date with her boyfriend where she issued ice-cold threats worthy of Tommy Devito from Goodfellas. Talk about a thug in a cocktail dress ... or mafia don in a cocktail dress.

David apologizing to his daughters for "abandoning" them is simply absurd! Did he leave the family residence and refuse to support them? Refuse to take their calls? Anything?? It doesn't seem like it -- he always seemed to be engaged and engaging of his children whenever we saw any interaction, and IMHO this whole counseling deal is unbearable and exposure of it is so unnecessary. Even though we don't really know these people, it seems obvious to everyone watching that David has checked out of the marriage and Shannon is such a needy, drunken nutbag that nobody blames him. Kinda makes me wonder how long she's been dysfunctional. Jeesh, Bravo, please SPARE US this awfulness.

I hear ya, Mrs. Peel -- who bought the house -- Dorinda or Richard or both?? And when I was listening to Dorinda's story about her father, saying he "worked there as a telephone man" I wondered what the heck that meant. Did he work for the phone company and install some stuff there once or a few times? I mean, I never heard of a full time telephone maintenance man for a private residence. Puzzling. I also agree with you on the decoration of Dorinda's house -- too overdone for my taste. The super ornate fireplace paired with super dramatic jewel tone and heavily wood-worked walls -- just way too much! The different room/different theme thing is too hotel-y or B&B for someone's home IMHO. Loved all the windows though.

Yolanda's ego is becoming insufferable! Everything is all about her - especially when she begins expounding on how SICK she's been, and how she can't do anything because she's been SO SICK. Yet she jets off to anywhere she wants anytime at all. As for her opinion regarding college education, I think it's probably due to the fact that Yolanda isn't the brightest bulb on the string, and neither of her girls seems overly endowed with intelligence either (driving drunk on a suspended license?? Gigi's very pretty, but not too good at the talking part http://totalfratmove.com/gigi-hadids-swimsuit-outtake-video-makes-me-want-to-be-a-better-man/). BTW, the boy's name is Anwar. It just grates on my nerves every time she entertains, because she's convinced she's the world's greatest hostess. But being a hostess is all about making your guests feel cared for, and yet she's SO selfish and rude about small things such as someone showing up late, or god forbid SINGING during the mandatory musical portion of the evening. And how about the charming practice of this supremely gracious hostess when she decides the party's over and announces "everyone has to go now - it's our bedtime - EVERYBODY OUT!!"? Finally, who WHINES to people about not having invited her to some event of theirs? She's done that to Lisa a couple of times now "why didn't you invite me?" (gawd, spare me!), and then in her THs, clutching her pearls and blathering on and on about how she invited that thoughtless Lisa to David's star ceremony and then refused to reciprocate.

Does Yolanda ever check herself?? Does she ever HEAR some of the things that come out of her mouth?? I mean, Yo never seems to shy away from reminding Bella at every opportunity that Bella "has always been so different" from she and Gigi, and that she "doesn't know where [bella] came from". I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Yo say that a couple of eps back. Way to make the kid feel special! And am I the only one who is appalled by that hideous coral-and-lace sweater Yolanda is wearing in all her THs this season?? With all her resources, it's amazing to me that Yolanda consistently makes some really odd clothing choices.

Plus the fact that Heather was WRONG. Bali is in Indonesia, which is a MUSLIM country - it just so happens that the island of Bali has a large Hindu population. Get your facts straight Heather.

Thank you, Copa! This woman is such a moron. It seems to me she never can resist the temptation to bash everything David, especially in front of his children - this time it was his "meat and potatoes" meal preference, as if there is something terribly wrong with it. Shannon obviously believes that David needs to be reminded every day that they are "raising three girls" - like he doesn't know this? God forbid those girls get the idea that a properly balanced diet DOES include carbohydrates. I could see the older daughter's eyes glazing over when Shannon went on and on about holistic this and pro-biotic that. I could tell the daughter was giving lip-service to exactly what she knew her mother wanted to hear but didn't believe a word of it herself. I hope the kid opens her luggage when they get to the airport and trashes all the pills & crap Shannon packed. And lordy-be, we mustn't even THINK about wearing the same pair of jeans TWICE on a trip. Absolutely no thought was given to the hassle of re-packing and dragging all that stuff around on a trip - traveling light and buying THERE whatever you didn't pack (I mean, since money's no object for them, right?) is out of the question because then Shannon wouldn't be able to cram her bizarre new-agey beliefs down the throats of everyone in her family. Her neurotic self-centeredness is just disgusting really. No wonder David wants to move out. Better yet, just send that drunken nutbag to rehab and then everyone in that house can breathe a sigh of relief.

Tamra freaked because she was fast-forwarding in her mind to when Ryan and his fiancee have their own child -- THAT would be a total betrayal for Ryan to makeTamra a grandmother. And something tells me that David and the children see Shannon in her drunken rant mode fairly often and aren't fazed by it anymore - just Mom being Mom. Again. Get her another vodka rocks and she'll take a nap, and then rise and apologize to everyone through her tears. Probably a near daily occurrence in the Beador house.

She definitely looks like she's got ten years on Ryan. She's been married before and has 3 kids - were the children's ages discussed? But Ryan doesn't have the option of romancing a woman his own age because he'd have to have something going for himself and clearly, he doesn't. Maybe his fiancee enjoys having a boytoy around and can afford to support him, but with 3 daughters perhaps not such a wise decision. Unless they're grown and out of the house, in which case maybe she really IS around Tamra's age.
