I get where you're coming from. I have people in my life who struggled for years with their weights despite working out and dieting. Then they get on the weight loss drugs and bam, drastic weight loss. I think it's possible Kyle is being truthful though. For one, Kyle has never been an overweight person. I believe Kyle has always been active and watched what she ate to varying degrees. However, she's now super into fitness. When she's on vacation, she's more interested in working out than in drinking. Kyle consumed a lot of calories from alcohol alone before. I wouldn't be surprised if Kyle has more help than she's letting on. She certainly has the means and has had plastic surgery multiple times, so I'm sure she's open to lipo and cool sculpting. Paul Nassif even did some procedure on her "love handles" season 1 or 2. However, I think it's possible she went from a healthy, active lifestyle to the accountability lifestyle of Teddi. She did admit to a breast reduction (after Andy blurted it out), so that's probably part of why she looks smaller too. Kyle had a good point in that despite how little she is, she looks strong and athletic. Erika on the other hand looks unnaturally thin and waify to me. Erika is taller and has a leaner build than Kyle, but still. I'm more suspicious of the "hormones" she said she used. She looks very bony, and that's on camera. It's crazy that she is even thinner in actuality than how she looks on the show.

I have to disagree with you about women. I think women CAN be those things, but no more so than men can be. I do agree with you about Frank. He said women are his weakness and he wasn't sure he could be faithful to Dolores if he got a second chance. I wouldn't want someone like that as a husband, but he does seem kindhearted otherwise. He's also fun and funny.

100%! It's pretty obvious all the wives and their partners/ex-partners gossip. Honestly, it's human nature. I give Jennifer the benefit of the doubt that she wasn't going to say anything about Evan on camera even if she found something. So far, with all her flaws, she hasn't exposed anything personal about anyone. I think Jennifer can be brutal with shaming Margaret, and Bill was obviously wrong for cheating on Jennifer. But the way the Aydins were treated was OTT. Bill has been nothing but nice to everyone. I don't blame Evan for calling out Bill for being incorrect about Jennifer not digging, but wanting Bill to agree Jennifer is just awful all around was not fair. I also hated that he told Bill to get lost. It all felt very mean. It's funny going by stereotypes, Frank is the most machismo, but he's one of the more gentle guys on the show. It's a shame he is a womanizer, because he has a lot of great qualities. David must have a lot of great qualities as well if he's so good to Dolores' family, but she should be with someone who's crazy about her.

Hehehe, any way we could get Carlton back?

Yeah, they're like sisters.

100%! I'm sorry I'm late to the Jersey party, but better than late than never.

All this. Do I understand Jennifer's argument that she didn't comment on anything Margaret hadn't been open about? Yes. Jennifer did not out any secrets. But she was very harsh on Marge, like cheating is the absolute worst thing you could ever do in life, and even judged her for something that happened in her early 20s that she felt pressured into. Do I understand taking the high road and that outing this about Bill is hurtful? Absolutely. I'm not saying Margaret spilling the beans was how I'd handle things. But I absolutely get why Marge just couldn't take it anymore. Jennifer brags about how wonderful Bill is but makes Margaret out to be this slut. It reminds me of when she poured the water on Danielle. Good idea? Perhaps not, but she was absolutely provoked. The nicest person can only take so much.

Mary was barely interested in being a friend of.

You would think fellow rich ladies would understand. Yes, Sutton is very fortunate she doesn't have to deal with how to put food on the table, and she lives a life most of us can only dream of. But tons of child support/alimony or not, I can understand her ex being powerful can make her scared of her kid moving out of the country along with her ex, feeling pressure to move herself, and just being emotional about someone she once cared about being that far away. A true friend would care about all this. Kyle didn't. She didn't show compassion when Sutton shared about her miscarriages either. She was dismissive of Merse. I don't think Kyle felt bad the times Sutton's been bullied, called the c word, nothing. Did Kyle even show compassion when Sutton shared about losing her father? I don't remember. I don't think Kyle hates Sutton, and she has sadly treated other Housewives worse, but she is no friend to Sutton. How would Kyle like it if people were dismissive of her marriage falling apart just because she and Mauricio are loaded? I don't have a fraction as much money, and I do think Kyle has a blessed life regardless of what happens, but I still know money can only do so much for a broken heart.

Peacock tried to play her special right after I watched the reunion. It's annoying enough they try to shove the Kardashians down my throat.

Agree. I could think of worse birthdays. I often get a kick out of Gorga, but this was an instance he annoyed me too. He was out of line for what he said to Dolores. Exactly. The dynamic is unusual, part of what makes it good TV, but it works for them! I applaud Dolores for not going back to someone who hurt her and for still seeing all the good in Frank and being mature with the father of her kids. There is a big difference between having opinions and a gang-up at a party. All of them have opinions about one another's personal lives. It's a bunch of them voicing their opinions at once, saying Dolores is broken, etc., that I found really mean. Maybe the relationship with David isn't perfect, but he seems like a pretty decent guy. Dolores has a lot of love in her life period. She's also a stunningly beautiful woman who could be married to someone if she really just wanted to be married to someone.

Agree. I normally like Melissa, but I wouldn't give "the talk" to a teen on camera. Antonia looked really uncomfortable. Count me as another who enjoys watching Jennifer and her family more with each episode. They all just seem more authentic to me, which is kind of ironic given hubby is a plastic surgeon. :) Jennifer looks fabulous btw.

I am not one of those Andy Cohen is the worst watchers. I think he's very talented with hosting for the most part. But sometimes I wish a longtime fan of the show would host. So many of us would have instantly called Kyle out for being all indignant after pushing the Denise messing with Brandi storyline. Oooh I like both ladies! I'll have to watch WWHL for Denise and Sonja.

Heather was naturally so pretty. I wish she left herself alone, but I understand the temptation to get stuff done. There is a lot of pressure on women, especially those in the public eye. I hope whatever she had done (or had dissolved), she is healthy and happy.

Awesome news! Thank you. I want new stuff to watch now that Salt Lake, BH, and Miami will be on hiatus.

I might be. Yes, I was one of those fans. The way she treated Denise was horrible.

lol! I noticed that with BH too. The women will go back forth from "f**k you" to "you look gorgeous!" like it's nothing.

I first heard of Drew Sidora on The Game many years ago. She's beautiful, and I was a big fan of this song. I wish they had it on Spotify.

Taylor looks so pretty! I'm glad to see her doing well.

Kelly is giving a horrible first impression to me. She comes across as one of the meanest Housewives in the franchise, going after marriages, looks, etc. Shannon is a beautiful lady and seems like a sweet person. She didn't deserve Kelly's cruelty.

I'm normally team Marge when it's her or Jennifer, Siggy, certainly Danielle, etc. But I think she did take it too far about Jennifer being a SAHM. As a child-free person who hasn't ruled out kids, I am not one of those people who says being a mom sounds like the hardest job in the world. There are very many jobs that sound much more difficult to me. I also think it's a great privilege to be able to stay home with your children, certainly in cases like Jennifer's, where she has a luxurious lifestyle. (I understand some women feel like it's not when they only stay home due to cost of child care, and they sacrifice a lot to be full-time moms). BUT, either way, I definitely think it's hard work raising kids, especially FIVE LITTLE kids. I don't think I could handle a career and such a large family. I'd imagine the children would suffer. I also think it's unkind to say a woman hasn't accomplished anything if her dream was to have a large family and stay home to take care of them. It's a natural thing to want. It wasn't my path, but I get it and respect it. Even if she has help, I'm sure Jennifer must work very hard taking care of that many little ones, and raising happy, healthy good kids is a wonderful, beautiful accomplishment.

Yay! I've been binging on Jersey, and it quickly became one of my favorites. I'm so happy I have a new season beginning soon so I won't have withdrawals. lol

I think it's cool they have an actual Housewife on the Housewives franchise.

I'm surprised! Maybe it's because Melissa is one of the more normal Housewives. I think she's beautiful, Joe is a cutie, and I enjoy watching her and her family.

As much of a Housewife junkie as I am, I won't be watching either. I really wanted to give Erika the benefit of the doubt until I saw the part 2 documentary. Good. The only way I support anything like this is if proceeds go to victims.
