"Beauvais was on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live and was talking to host Jeff Lewis about the situation. Lewis and Beauvais were talking about how they don't feel like they've ever seen the real Kemsley and Beauvais said it would be nice to see the "real Dorit." Lewis said that he thought she was putting it on for the camera and Beauvais agreed with him. “Yeah, I do. I mean, I’ve said it before,” she said on the show. “This season, I’m not allowed to say a lot, but she is on fire, and I think that’s because a lot of things are going on with her.” Then things get a little tricky. Lewis asked if Kemsley was on fire in a good or bad way and Beauvais said “It depends on where you start.” He then assumed that she meant that Kemsley was a "super b*tch" and Beauvais didn't disagree with him. “Yes. Agree,” Beauvais said of the situation. “She’s definitely activated, and you know where it’s coming from. There’s a lot going on … but everybody has stuff going on. Right? So, are we gonna excuse that?”

Uh oh, "bitch is eating crackers" again. https://collider.com/rhobh-garcelle-beauvais-dorit-kemsley/

Is this the season with the most people going home with an idol in their pocket?

I checked out this season. I didn't need that toxicity in my life. I hope Potomac comes back better. Much better. More than the C/G/R saga, the Wendy/Nneka utter nonsense was the "I'm out" for me. Wendy is just so aggravating. She played coy + shady with Nneka for no good reason, and it went downhill, left and sideways from there. I wish she'd get a pink slip, too. Mia? Major propers. Hoping for the best for her, Gordon and the family.

When Elsbeth got that serious tone when she said "submit my paperwork..."

I was referring to the "limousine" attack callout. Definitely not that one. I agree.

I thought AM's voice was slightly raised, but she was not yelling at her in the way that Sutton implied. To me, Sutton said it in a way to call out/admonish aggressive behavior and tone. That's where I see the comparison. Sutton's intent was more deliberate to me than Dorit's. And if Sutton weren't Garcelle's friend, or if it had been Dorit instead of Sutton, Garcelle would have said something, even if she thought AM was handling herself just fine.

💯

So... Dorit and Kyle will never be authentically good again. Too bad. And Kyle is a punisher. But maybe it's also because she never really considered her a real friend. Dorit and Garcelle will never be authentically good again. "Bitch eating crackers." Dorit and Crystal will never be authentically good again. Meh. AnnaMarie was exactly right to call out Garcelle for not checking Sutton for saying she was yelling. Regardless if she thought she was standing up for herself just fine. Attacking/yelling... keep that same energy. I don't dislike Dorit any more or less than I like Garcelle. I do think there is a depth to Dorit that she doesn't plum on this show. Because... it's Real Housewives. And they do seem to hold her words to a higher (lower?) level of scrutiny. I wonder how long she will stay on the show.

I'd be with Erika on this one though. Mistress is different than wife. Wife is legally intertwined and likely not earning her own money. She's got to protect her legal interests.

No one thought you were complicit, Erika. Empathy is all we wanted. Dassit.

Since Dorit is Jewish, chances are they are aligned. Hopefully.

That's the thing for me though: I don't think she's any more a fool than some, if not all, of the rest of them. Yes!

Agree. I wish we knew better why Garcelle just doesn't like Dorit. There are some words that are used liberally across housewives franchises, and "attacked" is one of them. I am a black woman. I *get* it. I worry though about how Garcelle is going about this.

I think this cast is one of the strongest they've had. I like them all to some degree, and think they are acting the most genuinely/authentically. Maybe not how storylines are introduced, but they are sharing their real feelings. And that makes it interesting. Sutton is my least favorite. She grates my nerves--her demeanor and behavior. The only thing I like about Sutton is her friendship with Garcelle. I like a lot about Garcelle. But along the lines of @Yours Truly, I do believe she has a cutting and dismissive side to her that she's shown with both Kyle and Dorit. They've both thought that all is well with Garcelle, only to find out it isn't... but she won't say. Instead she leaves no room for error or makes snide remarks--in group or the interviews--that have left both of them confused. Y'all are right: Kyle does to her friends what she and her sisters do to each other. I wonder if she realizes. I understand, though, her perspective with Dorit, Mo, and her sisters. She's been very clear. Not that I want to know, but I wonder if/how many times Mo has cheated on her. And if he has, with all that has happened in these reckoning COVID years, she is OVER IT ALL. I also understand what motivates Erika. Not that I agree with it, but I can understand the ramifications of her upbringing. I like Dorit. I think she pot-stirs with them all. And so do most of them. But her history with Garcelle makes their interactions more fraught. Sigh. We'll see where they go from here. Crystal is fine, LOL. I do wonder how tragic the role she/mom played in her brother's break-up will continue to be and if she feels guilty. That was a terrible choice to have him make: stay in China with fiance or come home.
