I think there is a well of guilt at the core of Bethenny’s meltdown- she spent all that time giving “ tough love” to Luann, a person she barely tolerates, and in her mind, not enough time trying to help Dennis, who obviously was in dire straits. Bethenny doesn’t care enough about Luann to get that upset about her lack of gratitude. Cannot believe she spilled the details on Lu.....

Good times ahead for Bethenny- just saw a clip of her having a major breakdown while going OFF on Luann.....

Kyle has grown her collection of canines: Teddi, her new junkyard guard dog....

No, as I said they are just rumors at this point. There is mention of it on several gossip type sites. There is an ongoing lawsuit with a former employee of Vanderpump Dogs- wrongful termination. Past lawsuits involving the Todd/ Vanderpumps are easily found. LVP’s comment about “tucking” directed at Erika didn’t go over well in the LGBTQ community. A reporter from People magazine called her out on Twitter and has been receiving cyber threats. LVP sure is polarizing- people seem to either love her or despise her. Personally, I fall in neither category. I just think she used up everything in her bag o tricks, and it’s time to move on. I do enjoy Vanderpump Rules though.

Tori’s belly is pretty big for 4 months along~ twins DO run in the family......🤗

Kinda surprised Audrey didn’t insist on a “ Manny” instead of a nanny. Their nanny is pretty cute, and thin......😉

It’s all in the details I guess- LVP’s loans are sketchy because there are so many, and they are all with “private investors “ . Private investors charge very high rates but don’t usually require full documentation of financial info. Seems strange for such a wealthy couple. LVP’s businesses have been plagued with many lawsuits and now there are rumors of some kind of Federal investigation linked to them .....

Someone on another site posted that Ken and LVP took out 6 loans with private bankers to purchase Villa Rosa. Hmnnnnnn.....🤯

No doubt our kids picked up on our low key disdain for the commercial side of Disney. Standing in long lines with tons of other hot, impatient people isn’t that enjoyable to my family. The subject of Disney can be fairly polarizing for many people, so I better play it safe and not get too deep into what we don’t like about it.

On the preview for the next episode it looks like Kyle is talking about having an eating disorder too. Kim and Kyle’s childhood seems like it was pretty difficult.

Table for one here: I detest Disney. Many years ago we took our 4 kids to Disneyworld and by early afternoon our kids were ready to leave- we were SO proud !! Meri looks pretty haggard for her age. Too much sun, harsh makeup and hair products, but mostly a life full of heartache. Hard times wil do that. ( so will NO sex 😉).

Did anyone else notice that when Camille first told Kyle she could go to France she said she had “ talked to “Mason and the kids” - didn’t she mean to say David and the kids? Jeez~ still a newlywed but can’t remember her hubby’s name....

Rinna obviously agreed to include her daughter in filming this season- even in the midst of her struggles with an eating disorder. She probably thought she would get kudos for being honest and shining a light on anorexia. Many ( not all) young women with anorexia nervosa have unresolved issues with their mothers. Rinna hardly has a healthy relationship with food herself. One of the Hamlin girls had crippling anxiety that even prevented her from attending school. Amelia has no business being involved with modeling- too much pressure to have the “perfect “ body. Nor should she be on this show. I think the whole family needs therapy.

My take on this is that LVP refused to film with the other cast members and wanted to be filmed in her new kitchen,at Vanderpump Dogs, with her animals, etc. Since this is an ensemble casted show, production cut LVP’s solo scenes which resulted in her refusal to film the reunion and subsequently to quit RHOBH. Allegedly, LVP has now threatened to take Vanderpump Rules to another network. I liked LVP in the early seasons but don’t find her fun or entertaining anymore. All of their sketchy lawsuits, and strange disagreements with friends and associates makes me think they are not as good hearted as they try to portray themselves.

Janelle seems to complain about stomach upsets a lot- maybe she should look into food sensitivities! My stomach was a mess, and I was overweight and couldn’t lose at all, until I took a home food sensitivity test and cut out all the dietary offenders. In spite of eating basically anything ( except reactive foods) and as much as I want, the weight just fell off.

When did Katie have her ( very public) miscarriage? Before or after the current episode?

Watching Sonja’s mental health deteriorate was not amusing or entertaining. Does she not have anyone in her corner?! She needs help. Ramona’s bit with the house staff was fake and stupid. She knows viewers found it funny and polarizing in the past. Bethenny is looking worn and gaunt. I’m starting to appreciate Barbara.

Cameron’s concerns are all legitimate new Mom woes, but she has a disingenuous quality about her that makes it difficult to empathize with her. Katherine is an idiot. She learned nothing from her experience with Thomas. Naomie is a brat, but I’m obsessed with her- I could watch her talk in French to her parents all night. Craig has many faults, but he is very insightful.

Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but I thought there was a bit of tension between Kyle and Farrah. I wonder if Farrah resented the filming during her birthday? If that scene between Erika and Tom was the best they could do then I wanna see the cut footage. Tom doesn’t seem ok- does he have some dementia going on ? I totally forgot about LVP during this episode. Love me some house porn but I’m relieved to not have to see Lisa’s kitchen again. Kim looks like she was ridden hard and put away wet.

Whitney has never seemed interested in women- but something tells me he would rather die than to come out as a gay man.

After her first rehab stay Lu looked rested, fit, and trim. Not so much now- she looks bloated, tired and worn. The judge can’t save Lu from herself but he can try and protect the public from Lu. Hence the new requirements of a car breathalyzer and mandated Antabuse. Next stop ( if she gets caught drinking again): 3 hots and a cot, and perhaps jailhouse cabaret.....

Edwin, Teddi, and Maurice were so stoned at that dinner. 😂

Jax can’t get past the anger stage of his grief. I doubt his Dad would approve of the way he is feuding with his Mom. He would probably tell him to behave like the man of the family and to look after his Mom and sister. Had Jax been present at his Dad’s bedside he may have been unable to accept his imminent passing. When a family member is distraught and crying it can cause the dying person added emotional distress.

I feel empathy for Jax- losing his Dad had to be devastating. However, he needs to come to terms with the fact that his parents knew his shortcomings and may have felt he was not emotionally equipped to deal with the critical situation at the time. Shielding him from witnessing his Dad’s passing was probably a poor decision but Jax’s Mom was dealing with a lot, and let’s face it- Jax is very narcissistic and immature, and may have made it more difficult for his Dad to peacefully let go. Cutting his Mom out of his life because she didn’t give him the opportunity to say goodbye to his Dad is truly a sad irony. When Jax eventually loses his Mom he will regret the lost time with her.

Katie is insufferable. Schwartz is a pea brain ( and apparently a grower, not a show’er). I liked Beau at first but now he seems like a trained seal. Is Kristen still in love with James? Why else would she be unable to move on ?
