She's also close friends with Simon Cowell, Sharon Osborne, etc. I reckon she'll have made a lot of good contacts with people through her restaurants.

Again, this all confuses me. Surely Yolanda would have gone straight to Mohamed with what Lisa had said about the non-Gigis as soon as she heard it, yet we saw several episodes later (ie several weeks later) that Mohamed built a horse house and brought it to Lisa as a gift. Something doesn't ring true to me. At the end of the day, can anyone really fault Lisa for saying what we all know to be true? There is no way the non-Gigis have chronic Lyme disease. If Yolanda hasn't been able to read or write for 3 years, how has non-Gigi #1 been able to walk to many catwalks in so many different countries, as well as attend award ceremonies and have a constant presence on social media (that doesn't involve sick selfies)?

Semi-aligned herself late in the season, yes, but the blogs seem to indicate that she has fully joined Team LVP since the show wrapped going into the reunion. She'll be back, and I hope she is. It's weird, because I disliked her for going against Erika when I liked Erika previously. Towards the end of the season, however, I began to like her and have valued her blog posts. More than that, seeing how much Erika has changed into an anti-LVP attack dog towards the end of the season has made me like Kathryn MORE for going against her initially!

I'm going to have to disagree somewhat here... Don't forget that Kyle shares a close relationship with Kris Jenner, and Lisa Vanderpump has a number of friendships with genuine A-listers (Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lawrence, Lance Bass, etc) whose influence in the Beverly Hills/LA circles far exceeds that of Gigi and the non-Gigi in the social media/modelling circle.

The Mohamed and Lisa thing confuses me. I am sure there was some beef between them after the comment about the children, but as someone previously said, no one who follows social media believes those children have Lyme disease. When Avril Lavigne was diagnosed, she went away for treatment. Bella Hadid? She hasn't missed a catwalk, fashion show, awards ceremony or photo opportunity in about 3 years. And don't forget about her DUI (which Yo blamed on her Lyme disease, despite being more than twice over the legal limit). I think it's more complicated than we think. Yo's comment about them not speaking for 8 months is rubbish, though. I guarantee Yo went straight to him with what Lisa said, yet several episodes after he would have known about this he was delivering a horse house to Lisa's home. I reckon Mohamed knows what Yo is trying to achieve with the comments about her children, as he has been through a lot of Yo's 'chronic illnesses' before (remember, she had their pre-nup thrown out because of some mystery disease she had at the time) and is distancing from Lisa for a while until the season is over and things are no longer being discussed, to avert his children coming into any negative press due to the actions of their mothers ramblings.

Is it just me, or is this the most divided the cast has ever been at the end of a season? (Lisa Kyle Kathryn) vs (Yolanda Erika) vs (LisaR Eileen) I don't think we've ever finished a season with three groups at war. True, individuals within groups have friendships but I don't think any two groups could merge to have a two-sided show going into next season. My guess is that there may be a major reshuffle next year. I think Lisa and Kyle are the only two safe housewives for next season.

So refreshing to see the entire internet react negatively to Rinna!

Ken is giving me LIFE tonight!

Wrong. Lisa Rinna said in her blog that her hairdresser was the third party. I have a very hard time believing that a 50 year old woman would say something she didn't want to say because someone else told her to. She proved herself to be pretty strong-minded and strong-willed last year. Come off it. She need to own her behaviour.

My initial order was: Kathryn / Kyle / Lisa V // Andy // Yolanda / Eileen / Lisa R / Erika Then I thought: Kathryn / Kyle / Lisa V // Andy // Lisa R / Eileen / Yolanda / Erika Official order is: Erika / Yolanda / Kyle / Lisa V // Andy // Lisa R / Eileen / Kathryn Slightly different from what I would have predicted but I consider myself to have been close enough :p

I called it in the predictions thread that no-one would get kicked out... It was obvious from the freeze frame that the whole table was laughing when Tom said it. This. I was ALMOST feeling sorry for Erika when she was talking to Kathryn, when I remembered that she shat all over Lisa Vanderpump in conversations with Yoda. Gurl, enjoy the grave you dug for YOURSELF.

Once again, the knife meets Lisa Vanderpump's back.

Her words verbatim at the season 4 reunion to Lisa Vanderpump: Locked in the house for 18 months... Despite 18 months involving the filming of both season 3 and season 4, which including, amongst everything else, trips to France and Puerto Rico. Suspicious?

Only an idiot WOULDN'T be confused about Yoda's illness... There are so many inconsistencies. Was she sick? Absolutely. Does she have Lyme disease? I doubt it. Was it more likely due to the fact that her implants exploded in her chest and leaked silicon into her body? I would say so.

Team Kathryn. Erika was brought in as Yolanda's lapdog - no other reason.

This crossed my mind also. Kathryn and Erika will definitely be on the outside (as has pretty much become the norm for all reunion newcomers).

I particularly agree on the last point. Amongst all the drama, I do believe one friendship on RHOBH to be real, and that is Lisa V and Mohamed. It is clear they have known each other for a very long time (he is Pandora's godfather) and love and respect each other.

I definitely don't smell a cheater in Erika either. I'm guessing her lawyer husband, Tom Geriatri-ardi, will have a cast iron pre-nup, and I don't think an extramarital affair would see her get much in the divorce. She's have to go back to dancing for dollar bills.

If you honestly believe that Lisa V and Kathryn both asking Erika how long she has known Yolanda was an attempt to 'discredit' her friendship with her, you are as paranoid as Erika is. Let's face it, the only reason Erika reacted to that is because both she and the viewers are more than aware of the fact that Erika and Yolanda weren't close AT ALL before the show started, but she was drafted in as one of Yolanda's acquaintances to provide support for her after Yolanda lost Kim and Brandi. Erika reacted with paranoia because she is aware of this. It is obvious that Erika and Yolanda were never friends before the show, aside from perhaps the odd dinner party that Tom Geriatri-ardi may have hosted with David invited and Yolanda as his plus-one. If you come into a group of people and you have a mutual friend with another member of the group, it is completely normal to ask how long their have known them. Also, it is obvious that Lisa V didn't bring Yolanda's kids into the discussion. Yolanda did. Then Kyle asked Lisa. Lisa responded honestly, which is saying that Mohamed said they were healthy. Interesting, though, don't you think, that Mohamed has spoken out in support of his children but NOT ONCE has ever confirmed Yoda's assertion that the kids have Lyme disease? I'm thinking their alleged Lyme disease may be as fictitious as Yoda's.

Except Lisa V didn't marry an older, wealthy man. Lisa V and Ken mostly built their business together. An article about them in 2002 wrote about how 20 years into their marriage they had built up their fortune together, and had sold 4 of their bars for £10million. Even Lisa's engagement ring was bought fairly recently when they could afford to buy one with a more extravagant stone.

I can see some issues between Lisa R and Lisa V in the next few episodes at least... I think she's gonna flip. I'm still torn between Kyle and Lisa V beside Andy. The producers seem to love putting her there but I don't see what she has contributed in this season to deserve it.

At no point was the season 3 reunion ever Lisa + Brandi + Yolanda vs Kyle. I recall Lisa vs Kyle, Brandi + Yolanda vs Kyle and Yolanda + Lisa vs Kyle + Kim. During season 4, Lisa had Yolanda + Kyle + Kim + Brandi having a go at her for a large amount of time. I have to call you out on the fact that Brandi brought up the no water for Yolanda comment, but Lisa didn't comment on that at all. I have to call you out on the fact that Brandi brought up the no water for Yolanda comment, but Lisa didn't comment on that at all.

Also, if you watch carefully (again), Erika is mid-sentence, seemingly talking to Lisa Vanderpump, when Lisa Rinna says that, but in the clip of Tom standing and saying "You need to leave", Erika is not talking at all. They have been edited together to make it seem a certain way I think.

I think the seating is going to be: Kathryn / Kyle / Lisa V // Andy // Yolanda / Eileen / Lisa R / Erika I think this is going to be another 'turn on Lisa Vanderpump' season, so I think she'll get the seat next to Andy. Lisa has been saying plenty of nice things about Kathryn on Twitter and in public, and she and Kyle are clearly still close based on their tweets, so I think they'll be sat together. Yolanda has been too prominent in this season not to have the other seat next to Andy, and Eileen clearly has a major beef with Lisa and is fairly 'Team Yoda', so I think they'll sit together. There is definitely an alliance between Eileen and Lisa R, and I can't think of any major problems between Lisa R and Erika. I did dabble with the idea of Kyle being next to Andy (as usual), but I haven't seen her having a huge involvement in the storylines since Brandi and Kim left.

I'm confused about this whole situation. Basically, if you pause right at the moment that the camera shows the whole table reacting to the "You need to leave" comment, both Lisas and Ken all appear to be laughing. I'm not sure it's going to play out like we all expect it to; I suspect the preview has a lot of editing.
