Quita

I just came here to see if anyone posted about how bad this episode is. I can understand Debra Winger being off because she's crazy and it's her first time, but what's with Amanda Peet's stank faces. She knows how this show works, she's been on before,

I also don't get the love for Valley Vista. There doesn't seem to be a lot of yard space for Monroe to run around in or put a swing set. Maybe I'm wrong about that, but I guess we'll see if/when it's finished. It was so sad to hear Jeff telling Liat about his grandmother losing both her only child and husband within a month. Poor woman. It's nice that she and Jeff have a close relationship. I sympathize with you on the loss of your mother. I lost my mom last year, also at age 87, after a brief illness. I don't believe we can ever truly be ready for such a significant loss in our lives but we just learn to deal with it, as difficult and painful as it is.

Maybe, but in my opinion, I don't believe for a minute that she would. She just likes to pontificate to others. After the big vow renewal production, she didn't change toward Donn one bit. We all know Vicki will or won't do whatever she wants and if she wanted to save her marriage, she would have made the effort then. Also, there were rumors that she started seeing Brooks while she was married to Donn. So, she can lose me with all that talk.

Don't get me started on Gretchen's selfies. The compliments she receives from her "fans" about how wonderful and flawless her skin is are comical. Seriously, people can't tell this is photoshopped or, at the very least, heavily filtered. And we all know how weathered Slade's face is. I saw an unfiltered photo of her recently on another site and you see how she really looks, sun damage and all and it's a far cry from what's shown above.

I believe she's going to be on tomorrow.

I just have to vent about Vicki trying to counsel Gina on her divorce. Vicki needs to stop with the revisionist history on how, if she could rewind the clock, she'd be a better wife to Donn and put more effort into making her marriage work. They were actually showing repeats of RHOC earlier today of the season where Vicki was going through her divorce and she had no appreciation for Donn and absolutely no interest in putting effort into her marriage or she would have. They had video of Donn at that season's reunion stating how coldly Vicki served him with papers at his workplace and he was shocked. He basically said that's how she rolls, everything how Vicki wants it and when she wants it. (I like to think if they had stayed together, Donn would've wised up and realized how awful she is and left her anyway.) Didn't she also claim Brooks was the love of her life? So, she can shut it with the shoulda, coulda, woulda. Gina is in a completely different situation and Vicki is no one to tell her she's being selfish. Good for Gina for telling Vicki she shouldn't beat herself up over her divorce because she has a beautiful life, which she does. She has children, grandchildren, a lovely home and a business that she owns and should be grateful for all of that. <Rant over.>

I think rehab is the perfect excuse for Luann to skip the reunion and avoid any questions about the children's lawsuit against her. She's trying to save face.

Don't forget - she's not just a last name, she's a legacy!

For some reason, I thought she was around my height. So, at 5'7", yes, for the sake of her health, she should weight more than 110. Maybe it was due to running the marathon? I'm sorry to read about your struggles with anorexia.

While I do think Carole doesn't look healthy, being under 110 lbs isn't necessarily reason for concern. I'm 5'3", weigh 105 and am very healthy with a good appetite, but I don't have the sunken cheeks/gaunt look Carole has. I'm not sure how tall she is. I've unfortunately had people jokingly ask if I was anorexic and it's frustrating. Heaven knows how much Bethenny had to pay for this "one of a kind" nutcracker (I side-eye that statement), but I can tell you that there's a life size one that I found after a quick search for $49.99. Whatever she paid, I'm sure it was way too much. And she should've thanked Dorinda.

Ashley, way to come on way too strong - not only with Thomas, but the entire gang. Loved her hinting for Louis Vuitton luggage and Thomas replying Kathryn has 5 bags and if they become friends, she could borrow one. He just digs his own grave and doesn't even realize it. Or maybe he does and doesn't care. The way he talks about her certainly doesn't sound like he's enamored. Her personality is grating and I just find her insufferable. She even seemed to be complaining to Thomas that the other girls were wearing flannel shirts and she wasn't because she didn't get the memo and was flipping out about what to wear. Really? Why does Thomas have to dress her for horseback riding? Damn, woman! Throw on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt and call it a day! I did laugh when Thomas had to get in the fact that he bought Kathryn riding boots. Also, her claiming she'd have the perfect name if they got married, Ashley Ravenel, and then declaring her love for Thomas. His response? Crickets. Cameran has me craving cheese balls! Gotta get me some tomorrow.

I saw that, too! She's the single mother of an infant dealing with all that Danae drama, yet the girl has time to play. Lexi could not possibly have a more flat affect. I've never seen someone more miserable at a party in her honor. Someone needs to check her pulse.

My son was born 3 weeks early and weighed 8 lbs. He wasn't considered premature, though, as my doctor assured me I was well within my range of time to deliver. Her baby is not premature nor early as she'd like us to believe.

I totally agree with you.

Yes, I definitely remember seeing that. That seems par for the course with April and I meant that I didn't think anything major happened with her (arrest, breakdown, etc).

I don't think anything happened with her. I believe Dr. Drew mentioned it thinking it would only do her some good - in his infinite wisdom (eye roll).

According to an Us Weekly article I read about the reunion, Catelynn sought treatment for a third time in January. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post the link here. It's sad that I even know that. I think it filmed beginning of March, per Us Weekly.

I believe he said April.

I don't know if Jade's are real, although you'd think with their money woes, the last thing they should be spending on is lip filler. My neighbor growing up had those bee-stung lips. This was 30 years ago, so that wasn't really a thing then and she didn't like the look. Even after all this time, they still look very full. So, it is possible.

Amber is a piss-poor actress with those fake tears. Does she really think it's believable?

This article says that people who self pay, do so at $1300/day. If we use that as a base cost, it's $9100/week x 6 weeks = $54,600 x 2 visits = $109,200.00 (give or take) for Cate's trauma rehab. I sure hope it's worth it. I wonder if she has any idea how much it costs.

Lexi is delusional. I clearly heard him say during their conversation that he wanted to see other people, so I'm not sure what she thinks she heard. She's a stage 5 clinger, for sure! Something tells me she'd be that way even if she wasn't pregnant.

Wow!! Well, this just proves my point.

LOL! I'm sure you look great! And I mean no offense to those 50 and over. (I'll be there soon enough.) I'm guessing Cate's around 26 and Baby Huey is maybe late 20's/early 30's - I have no idea. At that age, you should be fresh faced and bright, and at least have some energy. Not looking like the life has literally been sucked out of you. If they look this hard now, I shudder to think what they're going to look like in 50 years!

I'm sorry, but these are the faces of 50 year olds. And I say that as someone who is 40+.
