She showed, she was respectful, and there's no suggestion that she was reigniting the anger or doing anything other than showing respect. I personally doubt the rift is "mended" but when someone passes, you put aside your anger and show respect. Bethenny does have every right to be totally distrustful of Jillzy & not want to be friends with her or even to speak with her ever again. Jillzy pulled a shitty & reprehensible move on Bethenny & it backfired on her completely. I just find Bethenny's forever-grudges exhausting & annoying as hell. Is Jillzy still holding grudges against Bethenny? Really? Didn't know that. OK then. Yeah, the headlines for these funeral stories are misleading & just plain wrong. Neither of these 2 are letting go of anything. Somehow, I don't think we'll be seeing Bethenny cozying up in Jillzy's bed anytime soon, eh? And yeah, sure, Bethenny was invited. But why do I think Jillzy wanted this photo op moment of Bethenny & her "making up"? Again, it doesn't mean Jillzy isn't in deep grief. But we know very well who Jillzy is. Just means that she never will forget when to seize a beneficial moment for self-promotion. Yup, that's who Jillzy is. I'm not necessarily questioning Bethenny's motives here. She seems to have done the right thing. But Idk. Maybe she was doing it for the cams too. It was being filmed after all. Ugh, I still can't get over how disrespectful & intrusive & gross that is.

QuinnM January 16, 2018 Share January 16, 2018 Quote I’ve rewatched Season three and Jill was awful. Pure awful and while she’s not lashed out at Bethenny since, her BFF Patti Stanger has been more than vocal. I have no doubt that Jill has been thru hell over the past couple of years. I dare say, I’m now interested in seeing her return. Next time everyone watches Scarey Island, because I always make sure to catch that one, watch for this. Jill screaming how she ignored poor Bobby with Cancer. And there stands Bobby next to Jill, being the swell guy he always is. Bethenny screams back, you texted me, you said a little procedure, but I didn’t even ignore that, I sent flowers, I wrote a card. Bobby? I wrote that card. Then look at Bobby’s face. He had no idea there were flowers. He had no idea there was a card. The look just broke my heart. Jill can play all the games she wants but that was a terrible thing to do to Bobby. He would have stood with her regardless but hiding the flowers/cards hurt him. Bethenny tweeted that one of the producers called and mentioned that it was Bobby that gave her Bethenny’s name. So I think that Bethenny’s heart was in the right place. I don’t think that she did it for Jill and so that might not last. 21 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3967442

Or was it Bravo filming as part of the current filming of the upcoming season? Outside, like the arrivals of current cast under contract. ? Good on Bethenny for going. Would she have gone if it wasn’t current filming ? IDK. I didn’t care for the Squeaky Fromme hat. Hiding under a hat and then exposed legs short skirt and spiked attention grabbing designer boots is a juxtaposition for me. I don’t think she and Jill made up nor do they have to. But Bethenny did the right thing, took a deep breath and went. I loved seeing all of their funeral attire. Ramona looked great and well preserved. Sonja was tickled pink to be photographed . Dorinda looked like she needed a shot of whiskey or possibly had one prior.

zoeysmom January 16, 2018 Share January 16, 2018 (edited) Prior to Bobby's passing Bethenny sent a basket and it was acknowledged. I believe Bravo will probably have the ladies discuss their memories of Bobby with a montage of scenes. Jill and Bobby appeared last year, Ramona and Jill reconciled so the death of a RHNY husband is a first (although this franchise has two widows). They may have a myriad of divorces and break ups but a death in real time of a long time spouse is a different. Kelly and Luann were both recently at the hospital. Kelly was at a food bank preparing 1600 meals and she acknowledged Bobby's passing and support of Jill.

There was absolutely no reason IMO for Jill to be outside on the street except for her arrival. Why oh why was Jill outside on the street welcoming her guests? having conversations, was that something she couldn't do inside, far away from media vultures? This to me is highly opportunistic.

LOL, that made me laugh because it is 100% true. Jill is Jill. Jill is such a lucky woman, Bobby knew who she really was and loved her with her flaws and all. I have the feeling that Bobby would have approved of her opportunistic behavior because he knew who she was and accepted her and loved her anyway. If Jill would ever realize how incredible fortunate she was to find a man like Bobby, with not only money but such class, IMO she would have ever gotten so nasty and low with Bethenny. Jill's behavior came out of complete jealousy, she couldn't stand that Bethenny was the break out star and was offered her own show. Jill thought that with her being the "connector" than she should have been the star and the one with the show. She couldn't understand why nobody else seemed to think like her. The fact that famewhore Andy Cohen told her it was not a good idea to concoct the plot about fighting with Bethenny is pretty telling. Their friendship was one of the highlights of the show. Jill lost control. Jill has said herself that even Bobby pointed out to her that in all that fiasco Jill was to blame. I think Jill knows this, she went too far, she became a complete filming nightmare trying to manipulate the story lines and she paid the price for this. Maybe out of all this Jill has learned a lesson and has become a better person. Her opportunistic behavior doesn't do her any favors in my eyes, I just have this nasty feeling that if Bravo knocked on her door she would come running. She has campaign so hard to return and it is sad that the ticket for her return would be the death of her husband who IMO was her only redeemable feature. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3976518

ryebread January 18, 2018 Share January 18, 2018 LOL (laugh out loud ;-) Yes, you do ask a lot. Here's a list. If I didn't have a teenager, I wouldn't know most of them. That said, you won't find 'PP' on the list. That's Jill's abbreviation for 'Private Plane' that she found hilariously funny in an episode long ago. And I have to say, when one of us uses it now, as Alonso did above, it still makes me laugh - like I belong to an exclusive club that has been watching this franchise way too long. http://www.smart-words.org/abbreviations/text.html 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3976999

How long before Jill pisses someone off enough that they say, ‘The only good thing about you was Bobby and he’s dead.’ I'd put money down that the person saying it would be Ramona or Bethenny. Slightly better odds with Moaner. Sad thing is, I can clearly hear either one of them saying it. Ramona would be all wide-eyed and, "What? I didn't mean it like that." Whereas Beth would be screaming it at point-blank range in that unhinged, "GO TO SLEEP!!! GO TO SLEEP!!!" tone she uses. Jill should go live in Europe with Ally. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3977677

As far as Jillzy? I have no doubt she loved him & was absolutely devoted to him. But I have to admit, my first thought on hearing this was -- and I know this seems harsh, and I'm not a Jillzy hater at all -- um, was . . . at least she'll get his dough. I know, I know, I know. That's harsh. But look, Jillzy set it up for people think this way because of her own behavior. Still, I'm sure this is a painful time for her & my sympathies are with her. And yet, I wonder . . . what's gonna happen to Zarin Fabrics? Is it all gonna go to Jillzy? Maybe not. He had kids from a previous marriage, right? I always got the impression Bobby & Jillzy were yet another Bravo couple living way beyond what they could actually afford. Oh sure, Bobby's business was/is supposedly worth millions. But what will that mean for Jillzy? I'm very curious. And speaking of being curious, I bet I'm not the only who's curious. Hey, Satan Andy, are you or your minions reading here? Hire her the fuck back quick! Make her an offer & she'll do it for pennies -- or even free! Oy, I can just picture her jumping for joy at the op to cry & wah-wah her head off again to us. I know, harsh, but true. That's just who Jillzy is. the truth is, not having to worry at all about money is one less, and a big one, stressor in life. and death. i feel worse for the people who are left without a breadwinner, with a reduced pension and s.s. income etc. who have little or no family. i did not like her but even so, her husband seemed like a good person as little as i knew about him. prayers and may he rest in peace. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3979026

But it does appear that Bethenny has forgiven her and buried the hatchet, I believe she even follows her on social media now. Money probably was a huge factor, but I think that for Bethenny it was more than that. Yes, Bethenny was getting all the attention and her own show, that probably killed Jill inside and the monster of jealousy reared its ugly head, but IMO it is the way Jill went about it that made it so awful, vindictive and nasty. Jill knew that Bethenny had a full calendar of activities, not only interviews and media but also getting her cocktail line up and running, most of these activities not in NYC, she purposely kept Bethenny is the dark about Bobby's condition, she only mentioned it once and in the form of "he is just having a procedure" which Bethenny send him a get well card and flowers. She started bickering with Jill and then the issue of Bobby's health never came up again. Jill was doing her own presentations and interviews around so she was always busy, out and about according to her own social media. I am assuming that Bethenny had no idea of the severity of Bobby's condition mainly due to the fact that Jill seem to doing all her regular social activities and because Jill herself concealed it on purpose. For Jill to use that against Bethenny when filming started was cruel and vindictive. To use the fact that Bethenny was not there for her when Bobby was diagnosed with cancer was premeditated to inflict the worse possible damage possible to B's image and even until now you can read about how awful friend B was to J because she wasn't there for her and Bobby. This was calculated and premeditated, part of her strategy to punish B for being "the chosen one" Jill went as far as to ask the other ladies behind cameras not to film with Bethenny and she almost got her wish. If it wasn't because Alex refused and Ramona had to be convinced by production, Jill most have likely succeed and her fabricated story line would have been successful. Jill's delusional mind went as far as to have a meeting with AC to explain his "wonderful" idea and despite being told don't do it, she thought she knew better and did it anyway. I often wondered around that time what would have happened if destiny didn't intervene and the three major events that marked Bethenny that year didn't happen: her father's death, her engagement and her pregnancy, those event were major and gave Bethenny a story line without much need for her castmates. IMO Jill was never truly remorseful, she gave smug interviews, about how all viewers would be on her side, she even got Team Jill T-shirts made, it must have been a huge slap on her face to find out that most viewers sided with Bethenny and Jill had to eat crow and try to be apologetic during the reunion and then ask for forgiveness. Maybe life and Bobby's long time illness have brought JZ a new perspective and she is truly a different person, I surely hope so, but I do have my doubts. One thing is to be a famewhore, which they all are to be on a reality TV show, but to get that low and dirty IMO is a sign of a rotten person, not sure that can be changed. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3987955

Jill has never truly been remorseful about these actions. The key indicator is that WWHL interview, which was Andy and the network testing to see if they could work with her again and she failed big time by secretly taping the interview. She was once again trying to control the narrative to the nth degree. It was obnoxious and manipulative as always. Jill has remorse about the result--being booted from the show and reviled by the viewing public--but not the thing she did and harm she caused to her relationships with Bethenny, Alex, and even Ramona. It was so unnecessary. I just think it's so telling that except for Danielle (RHoNJ), Phaedra (RHoA) and Jill, no former housewife from any of the other shows was banned from their former shows even as a guest at a party. Danielle is batshit and managed to come back as a friend. Jill only managed to earn a reprieve from her banishment after years away, subsequent interviews on WWHL on her best behavior, and was limited to a single scene. Jill's scene from last season didn't reassure me that she's become a better person when she admitted that she missed all of the gossiping and back-stabbing. Hopefully, Bobby's illness and passing will help Jill gain some perspective about what is actually important in life. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-3988529

I can't remember what Jill did to Ramona but there is some irony the one RHONYC Alex is in contact with is Jill. I have always wondered if Jill wasn't holding out for money for her appearances. At one she did mention Bobby did not want her doing the show any longer. She certainly attended and threw a lot of parties that had RHs from NY and other franchises. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1313-ghosts-of-housewives-past-jill-zarin-alex-and-the-rest/page/20/#findComment-4003424
