From what I've read, Bethenny pitched Bethenny: The Next Chapter about her and Bryn in Connecticut. She described enough of her life and community in Connecticut that Bravo was somewhat interested. They had tried for years to get a Real Housewives of Connecticut off the ground. They realized with Bethenny and some other people they were sincerely interested in, they'd have a new franchise. So Bravo began contacting some of the people they were interested in. Bethenny found out and was livid. She wanted a solo show. Bravo wanted a franchise and was adamant that Bethenny could not carry a show on her own. It's pretty much a dead project and pitch. Bethenny doesn't have a producer credit for Bethenny Getting Married, Bethenny Ever After, or her Bethenny (the talk show). I suspect this is part of the reason she's just manic and fanatical about all of that crap now. Before the mess that was Bethenny Frankel presents a Bethenny Frankel Joint The Big Shot with Bethenny, I would have absolutely believed that. But that show was just Bethenny's narcissism writ large during nearly ever single second on the screen. And everything she's done since then just proves that she's incapable of stepping out if the spotlight. And if Bethenny had truly wanted to build a network, she would have approached all of this with research and much more methodically than she has. There were 2 near sexual assaults on Below Deck Down Under 2 weeks ago. There have been rapes on The Real World and The Challenge; one of them was on camera. There have been some serious injuries and deaths on other shows. There are real concerns about background checks, compensation, access to health care, domestic violence resources for the cast, and children's working hours. These aren't huge concerns on Bravo, but TLC and We are very vulnerable on those issues. I'd believe Bethenny was coming for everyone if she'd approached this with any level of professionalism and thoughtfulness. She just doesn't have the money for it. At the very least, I would have thought she was trying to sincerely build her own production company.

This is a dude who sports a full beat 6 out of 7 days of the week, platform shoes, sequined hip-huggers, and a douchey pickup artist peacocking chapeau* just to pick up batteries, pens, and toilet paper. Ariana showing up in anything less than Victoria's Secret angel ensemble complete with wings and a choreographed pole routine probably just smacks of pure laziness to Sandoval. Ariana probably had on her t-shirt, opened a bottle of wine, and put on some music. Meanwhile, Sandoval was thinking, "Dude, where is the choreography? Where's my Sexy Sandy Pina Colada? Like the lighting doesn't even synchronize with the music, dude." Sandoval doesn't just try hard; he tries hardest. Mostly because he hopes it covers for his idiocy, sanctimony, and extreme lack of talent. *I just realized that Sandoval has been doing his own version of Mystery (the pickup artist) drag this whole season.

I wish people would stop quoting this because it's not true as a blanket statement from state to state, facility to facility, or patient to patient. I literally wrote the laws and administrative regulations in a couple of states for use of personal patient phones in inpatient mental health facilities. What I wrote covers states whose combined populations exceed 40 million. Raquel may not be in a real mental health facility, but saying that her access to her cell phone is proof is really wrong.

I was very well acquainted with it, which is why Sandoval's continually vague use of it was maddening. It's why everyone who is familiar with it asks follow-up questions whenever Sandoval says something weird and incongruous. Dip out means you have left a place. One doesn't dip out of the living room to use the bathroom or get a drink from the kitchen. This has actually allowed to use his flaky scenester persona to lie to people's faces. When they're the age of the Real Housewives, I'd say they'd stop fucking each other, but there's Brandi and throwing drinks in each other's faces, but there's Brandi and Tamra, and screaming in each other's faces, but there's ALL OF THEM! Katie was making a massive mistake trying to remain "friends" or be friendly with Schwartz. Schwartz never liked Katie enough to not be an asshole to her. First, he's living with and possibly dating Jo (Kristen's former friend and Vanderpump Rules hair stylist). Second, is whatever is this nonsense with kissing Raquel/Rachel at the wedding and Bayou. It's quite clear that Schwartz was never going to comply with that don't date anyone in the group.

Randall was pretty financially abusive. Additionally, there have been hints over the years that Randall's finances were a house of cards that was about to collapse. His company owes $30 million that they seemingly can't pay. He also has millions in personal debt, much of which is from side chicks that he promised to pay if they signed NDAs. He never paid. He put his house on the market. It started at $6.3 million; it's been reduced to under $5 million. He's trying to reduce some of his child support to Ambyr's kids. He just doesn't have the kind of money Lala thought he had. Lala's big mistake was actually having a kid with him. Kim Zolciak and Marlo Hampton were A+ sugar-babies. They didn't have kids with their dudes either. Wig's big problem was that she couldn’t curtail her spending. Both of them left their sugaring arrangements with paid off townhouses, paid off cars, jewelry, plastic surgery and designer clothing, shoes, and handbags . Marlo also ended up with substantial savings and an investment portfolio. This is what Lala should have done. She should have had him buy her a nice little $500K - $1 million condo in Sherman Oaks or Studio City in her name and give her a paid off car. He could have bought her the shoes, jewels, bags, and clothes. But she's facing 20 years of going back to court as Randall keeps trying to reduce his child support payments.

They are, but they usually don't like to extend more than a month after wrapping principal photography. By mid-October at BravoCon, James was still talking shit about Raquel and Schwartz. I really think this a new confessional from March 2023. We know that Scheana, Kristina Kelly, and Katie filmed some confessionals in March.

I'm 100% convinced that scene and the scene of Lala telling James about Raquel sleeping over are pick-ups filmed after the affair came out. Whereas as the scene where Raquel is 1.5 hours late is possibly from principal photography. It was likely intended to catch Lisa up on the drama of the beach day. I think the bagel truck scene is a pick-up. There's also one of James' confessionals that is probably a pick-up. It's after Raquel made out with Schwartz. James says, " I don't care if she makes out with Peter, Oliver, Tom Schwartz, or Mr. Buzz Button." A buzz button was an ingredient that Sandoval insisted be included in one of the drinks at TomTom.

I believe it's cigarettes and missed opportunities according to a TikTokker.

No one who knows even a little bit about Randall could believe that Randall would voluntarily stay away from the cameras. He was a child actor, who had booked some local commercials in Florida. He went to a performing arts high school. When he went to film school in New York, someone must convinced him that he'd never make it as actor. He switched to film production. You can tell he's never gotten over it. It's why he kept telling people that Turtle from Entourage was based on it; he wasn't. He once hired a camera crew to film him for a week. It was for a sizzle reel for a reality show about him and Emmett Furla Films. He kept pitching it. Obviously, there were no takers. He has premieres for far too many of his nonsense films. George Furla rarely attends them. If he was so concerned about protecting his kids, why would he not do anything when Lala was publicly trashing Ambyr. Lala is a liar and hypocrite.

Sonja is likely greatly exaggerating her "modeling career." Sonja is a delusional fabulist. All of her stories need to be double checked. You can't take anything she says on face value. She might have been a fit model like Carole was for Jordache Jeans. She told a story about living abroad for a year with her wealthy European boyfriend during one of the rare times we actually know where she was. It was her senior at FIT and she was working at that boutique on the Upper West Side, Arlequin. Sonja's divorce settlement was pretty substantial, about $25 million in money and property. Unfortunately, Sonja was playing at being a movie producer. She claimed she had access to more money than she did. Because she was such a dilettante, she never realized the lead of a movie she was financing and producing had a pay or play contract. This means that the actor gets paid regardless of whether the film is made. It was $7 million dollars. She, first, tried to get some of her ex-husband's contacts to strong arm the other producers into dropping the issue of Sonja paying the $7 million. They implied that the other producers would never be able to get money from New York again. She got sued and lost. Next, she declared bankruptcy. She sold off most of the properties that she got in the divorce. She ended up taking a $3.3 million mortgage on the townhouse. Sonja is smart and dangerously charming. It makes her think she can get away with more shit than she actually can. That's how she winds up in trouble. I'm sure she was thinking the same thing when she stayed in the south of France rather than come home to be with her sick husband. Her friend swooped in and has been married to him longer than his other 4 wives.

Lala's attorney. Raquel's attorney sent cyst and decease letters to everyone to warn them to not share Raquel's sexual video. Everyone in the cast has legal representation. Raquel's attorney sent the letters directly to the cast instead of their attorneys. Lala was bitching about it, "Stop sending me this shit. Send it to Darrell." It's super dumb.

They are going to try to quickly file for bankruptcy and stall the sale. What happened in November is that the primary mortgage holder bought the secondary mortgage to make things easier for when they foreclosed on the property.

She looks more like Bernadette every single day. She's definitely severely dehydrated, parched, and ever thirsty. I actually have a friend with a fish allergy who was inadvertently consuming a lot of anchovy products. She used Worcestershire sauce and loved Thai food. I told her both had a ton of anchovies in them. This was a surprise. She never had a reaction. I suspected that she might be allergic to flaky fish, but not oily fish or there is something about the fermentation of anchovies that eliminates the allergens. There's no explanation for the tuna.

Thanks! I'm good. Until relatively recently, Bryn was prohibited from being on tv and social media because of the endless custody battle. So she kind of missed the age to be an adorable precocious child star influencer. I think Bethenny is likely to push it in about 2 - 3 years. This is around the time Bryn would be finishing her freshman year of high school. I cannot think of a more dangerous time for this to happen. A teen going through high school and puberty with an oversharing mother with massive looks and body issues. This will likely lead to just bad things. It has the potential to be as bad as anything Rinna or Kim Zolciak has ever done to their daughters.
