Yolanda Hadid: My Love, My Lemons, My Lyme Disease.

[GreatKazu]

I noticed in her friend with ALS's blog that she referred to Yolanda as "Yolanda Hadid" which I thought was kind of weird.

Yolanda was credited as "Yolanda Hadid" in the Lady Gaga music video.

 

I wonder when YoFo will do a cleanse to get rid of the "Foster" last name?

 

 

I don't think she is in the hospital, that headboard is a padded headboard. She gets IVs at home ALL THE DANG TIME and then LOVES to post pictures of it on her social media pages so her adoring fans fret over her and tell her how "strong" she is, what a "Warrior" she is and how much they adore/support her. IMO, she is addicted to the attention she gets, just as much as Kim is addicted to alcohol and pills.

YoFo needs to do an episode of Intervention.

Well she was addicted to lemons for a while.

At least scurvy is one disease that YoFo won't have to worry about.

[ParkCirclegirl]

Did Yolanda get saline implants in place of the silicon?

[Shelby]

I've seen Chef Fang on a few reality shows where people get their implants removed. The only one I can remember by name is MTV's True Life called "My Implants are Killing Me" or w/e.

That doctor, when she speaks, touts herself as the best implant removal specialist in the world.

At least scurvy is one disease that YoFo won't have to worry about.

Why did the place yo got her implants removed say Fang fitness?

I'm surprised they let her health advocate, without any kind of license, stay in the operating room.

Something tells me Daisy was not the only unlicensed person in the OR.  Just a hunch.

Bottom line is Yolanda's surgery took many hours, I think 5 hours. If before surgery she wishes to think of herself in a certain way "going into battle" that's her prerogative. Criticize her for every word she's said about LD, hate her personality, her looks, her accent, being a wife and not liking her as a mother, but for goodness sake unless you had silicone spread all over your chest from leaky implants and nodes removed full of silicone give her a break as a human being.

 

I certainly can be compassionate toward someone who is frightened about any kind of medical procedure, surgery most of all.  But compassion runs thin for someone who milks absolutely every situation, and for someone who selfishly over-dramatizes her condition to her own children.  Not to mention allowing cameras not only in the OR, but also in the kitchen that morning, in the car, in the recovery room, etc.  Nothing is personal with Yolanda - She wants everything out there, clearly motivated by fame.  I don't doubt that she was scared and emotional, but she got what she wanted - more pity, more airtime, more attention.  

 

We even got to see a phone call with Gigi  - just in case the world has forgotten that she is Gigi's mother!  If most of us were in that kind of situation, scared, clinging to our husbands, wanting to speak to our children before surgery, etc, we would opt to do it without cameras present.  If I thought I might die in surgery and was speaking to my child for what possibly could be the last time, being on TV would be the last thing I would be thinking about and the last thing I would want.  We saw a woman sitting in a car, lying in a bed, talking on the phone, looking pretty isolated, but the reality is that there were a lot of people, TV cameras, crew, lights, etc, and that's what she was seeing thru the entire thing.  She was well aware that every moment was being filmed, all the attention was on her, and that's exactly what she thrives on.  None of those scenes were as pure as it seemed, and she's the one who decided that all of it should be played out on national television.  Why?  Who does that benefit?  

 

Yes, it was surgery and all surgery has risks.  But this woman carries on every damn time, through every damn thing, large & small, as though she's at death's door.  I don't like her, but of course on some level I did feel for her.  But she's like the boy who cried wolf, and it's really enough already.   I don't trust anything she says or anything she does, and it's hard to have genuine feelings for someone who is so clearly not genuine.

 

I also would have more compassion for her if I ever saw her - even once - be compassionate toward someone else.  

 

 

Lol. Yeah she can't keep her stories straight.

 

She knows that she's been caught in lie after lie.  Yet she continues to do it.   And she thinks she's qualified to decide who's intelligent and who's not!!!

 

 

 

 

 

She was known as Yolanda Hadid when she first became a "real housewife", wasn't she? Her Instagram account url is "yolandahfoster", that H could be for either Hadid or van den Herik, probably for Hadid. The Yolanda Hadid Family Trust, trustee Yolanda Hadid, (mailing address was the Malibu Lemon Mansion) bought Gigi's NYC apartment in 2014

 

I think she's been Yolanda Foster since becoming a HW.   She might have kept Hadid for business purposes, but she proudly wanted to be known as David Foster's wife, and I have only heard her referred to as Yolanda Foster both on & off this show since she married him.  A divorced woman might keep her married name or go back to her maiden name, but Hadid is neither.  I think it's clear that her goal is to be associated with Gigi.

 

And speaking of Gigi - How odd that she had to speak to Gigi right before surgery, and didn't even mention her other children.

Perhaps she spoke to her other children and it wasn't filmed. Or was filmed and not used. Just 2 possibilities in a sea of many.

Yes, definitely possible.  I did think of that.  But based on much of what we've seen, it would not be unbelievable that Gigi was the only one she called.

 

If she did call the others too,  it would be nice  if she clarified that.  I would be horrified if I had called all of my children, and it ended up looking as though one was my priority and I hadn't even thought about the others.   Especially under those circumstances.  Considering her fixation on social media, it would be easy for her to say something about it if in fact that's what happened.

Thank you!  Twice. :) And it's so good to hear it's not only me.

 

And yesterday, or today, I forget, we have the instagram picture of Yo once again being hooked up to an IV.  Why?  She doesn't reveal that.  As ZM already stated, it well may be for another dose of Vitamin C.  But....Yo presents it as another episode of her battle against Lyme.  Personally, I think she needed some attention after having spent the holidays with her children now that they're back to their own lives, Yo needs some love and had Daisy (her codependent in seeking fame) took a picture.  In her mind, what else does she have?  The reality is she has a lot.  It's all so pathetic. 

 

Is Yo mentally ill?  I don't know but I don't think it's in a mentally ill person's  best interest to sit by and placate.  Nor is it in a sane person who is trying to manipulate people to sympathize.  Either way, Yo needs to be called out.  I understand the other housewives' reluctance to even broach the subject because of the backlash but mentally ill or not, Yo needs to be confronted.  Most of them did the same thing with Kim.  It's not helping to get someone better.  

 

And, I'm not saying Yo didn't have Lyme.  What she is doing now is beyond Lyme.

She specifically told David that she promised to call Gigi, she did NOT mention Bella/Anwar, nor did she mention calling her mom.

She needed her junky fix for sympathy, praise and support because she showed pictures of her walking and having fun with her kids over the new year. She can NOT allow her fans to think she is doing well because she wouldn't get the same amount of attention she craves/needs. JMO

I wonder if Yolanda remembers what it is like to just feel okay anymore.  Sometimes that is half the battle, resigning oneself to making the best of the day.  I linked an article about Tom Seaver and he told the reporter he was having a good day, and it had been five in a row.  Although he need not work, he spent several hours a day pruning vines in his vineyard.  Several months later he was able to going back to pruning vines seven or eight hours a day.  His reoccurrence was many years later and he suffered for many months but seem to pull it back together.  He had some pretty severe memory issues but seems to have adapted, turning the day to day running of his winery over to his wife and daughter.  My point is he adapted and makes things work for him.  He was at the same dinner Yolanda was back in 2013, about nine months into his reoccurrence,  I just wonder if Yolanda talks with someone like Tom who seems to have put his health issues into perspective.  He is 20 years older than Yolanda but I think she could learn from him. 

[breezy424]

I gotta laugh.  Yo's blog is up and she talks about the loyal friendship of her girlfriend, 'Erica'.  That would be, 'Erika' Yo.

Meh it seems practical to keep the Hadid name for a while with kids then transition to Foster when they are older.

 

But she's been known as Yolanda Foster since she married David.  So it would be going back to a previous name, not keeping what she has.  And she hasn't shared a last name with her children in years.

 

I'm not sure why she would ever transition to Foster.  She and David are divorcing, and have no children together.

 

There's a reason she wants to go back to Hadid.  If she simply was dropping Foster in anticipation of her upcoming divorce, then it would make more sense to go back to her maiden name.  

 

I think she just might continue to change her name depending on which family member is getting the most publicity at any given time.  Because that is totally how she rolls.

I honestly don't think she wants to learn from him or from anyone.  She wants to be the only one who knows anything of value, and she wants the world to listen to her lecture about every subject that she's an expert on.  Which is apparently every subject.  In earlier seasons, she was a huge know-it-all about  pretty much everything, and she hasn't changed.  No one else's opinion or knowledge seems valid to her.  

 

I'm also sure she doesn't want to feel better or recover until she tires of this, or has something to replace it.  She's much too comfortable portraying herself as a valiant victim to let it go just yet.  No doubt a good conversation with Tom Seaver would be a great thing for her.  I just don't believe that she would be open to it.

I am not exactly sure who is buying into the "nonsense".  Yolanda seems to be the only one who thrives on these remote, speculative health plans.  My guess is Yolanda will let the remaining miniscule silicone rule her life-even though it is doubtful it has any effect on her.  As long as she can find doctors willing to take her money and allow her to drone on about her complaints she will never feel well.  A responsible physician would advise her to adapt.   

 

It also irritates the parasite free crap out of me, that Yolanda makes it sound, like we the viewers demanded she have this model like appearance in order to accept her.  She is the one that fell in with the fake tits, the platinum hair, the ridiculously arduous workouts, the Botox and fillers-she wanted to present herself that way-I really don't give a damn what she looks like physically.  Her modeling career was twenty five years ago.  Again, I think put together she is attractive, but the deep set, beady eyes, render her in the attractive not beauty category for me.   If this modeling appearance was so devastating to her health why is she so hell bent on having her three children pursue a career in modeling?  Does she think they won't be judged (and hired) by the seemingly impossible standards in the modeling industry? 

[BlackMamba]

I'm still more concern with the creepfest I've been witnessing on the show.

Yolanda's logic, as it pertains to her Lymes as it appears, 'When I'm in pain have it removed'

First it was the teeth, now her boobs.

I can't make up my mind if these are things she wanted done and just using her Lymes as a cover or she truly believes maiming herself with these abundance of surgeries and pumping her body with a shit load of drugs is "curing" her Lymes.

I feel like Yoda is sending me in a state of confusion each week she explains her illness. I still maintain she's a sick woman but there is more that she isn't leading on.

I noticed the spelling error too - made me wonder if the friendship is actually an alliance that Erika finagled in order to get on the show. She may have visited her "friend" Yolanda hoping to get on the show and, sure enough, Yo requested her. (I remember Yo saying that Erika visited, when others didn't.)

When Brandi went on twitter or IG drunk, acting up, etc. and got bad press, sure enough you could count on her posting pics of her kids.  That was her way of trying to gain sympathy.   Same seems to be true for YO.  Pics of her vacationing, out and about, then the questions start about how severe or real her illness is, and wham - we get pics of another IV shoved into her arm (always with her head tilted down a bit ,so sad, so tired).   

[Alonzo Mosely FBI]

The thing that struck me on top of Lemon Drop Mountain when she was showing the kids her will, was when the kids reacted to the will Yolanda got very animated and leaned into the conversation and her face changed and she said "It is important." And I thought hmmm I think Yo is saying "I am important".  She likes to get a reaction. She really lights up when she gets one that makes her feel important and I think it is a psychological black hole for her. Abandonment issues* and all that attention she got as the "it" girl modeling are adding up.

I think Erika is very sly. Now I have to watch to see if she's destructive or benign. I haven't put my finger on that one yet which is unusual because I usually read the wives pretty quickly. She does seem to have the ability play a long game so...

[kokapetl]

I disagree with the contention that Kylie Jenner has done anything to definitively establish herself as a "fuck toy." She's had facial plastic surgery and is dating a 25-year-old black dude. You could literally replace "she" in that sentence with "Bella Hadid." As for Kim's splashy entree into the public limelight, she herself was 25 and well into adulthood when her sex tape dropped. Kris wasn't molding a naif. And didn't the rumor that she orchestrated the leak originate with Kris Humphries during his acrimonious split from Kim? In any case, with all the talk of "ho's" and "pimping," let's get real: if you're trading on your body and face to land a rich husband, you're trickin'. From my perspective, there's no shame in that game; everyone's got to capitalize on whatever attributes they've got to achieve their desired goals. If that goal is financial security, more power to Yo and Kris for winning what they wanted. But it's rich to read the vilification of David Foster for wanting a trophy as a companion; Yoland has fashioned her entire adult life on being a trophy and consort. As for the daughters (aside from the aforementioned DUI similarities and Gigi's drug vid), Yolanda is encouraging them to date rich men and giving the thumbs up on video when they land marks of whom she approves. She's actively discouraged them from intellectual pursuits like Gigi's plan to study forensic psychology and steered them toward making money off of their aesthetics. Gigi's visibility as a model doesn't derive from a homemade recording of sex but she does owe much of her visibility and success to shaking her ass on Victoria's Secret runways, sexualizing herself in Sports Illustrated, and posing nude for Tom Ford adverts. Yolanda showcased about as much of her 'assets' as Kris did in the photo above with what was broadcast of her homemade nude book (is that somehow inherently classier than creating a sex tape with one's partner because the objective - sexual stimulation - is the same).

Kylie was surgically transformed into the new, improved Kim. She has had liposuction to harvest fat for ass injections, Kris doesn't have her kids diet because she wants them to have their fat harvested and re-injected, which is far more fucked up to me. Bella's had at least her nose done, but she's not been transformed into her older sister like Kylie was.

And unlike the Kardashian kids when they were first starting out, Gigi has no reason to allow herself to be pimped out like that.  She may have got an initial boost in the business by Yo and David but she's making her way on her own now.  

Gigi's father is no slouch himself in the influence department.  It's not that big a jump to conclusion that Mohammed and his long time friend Georges Marciano (founder of Guess Jeans) had a big hand in Gigi getting that first high-profile modeling job with Guess.

Agree - she must be sly to land the big fish she hauled in (although there's sure to be a good prenup there). Her husband is David's friend - the women seem to have met through them but Yo still doesn't know the spelling of her name - apparently there haven't been place cards (with or without hearts) yet. Just watching the show Erika would know that Yo felt her friends weren't visiting enough - very easy to use that as a jumping off place!

This could go along with her habit of baby-talking and idealized lauguage, which might be about trying too hard to be loveable. The most interesting part of these shows for me is the psycho/emotional dynamics - something to try to figure out, though we'll never really know.

Millions of people are suffering from chronic illness and just because you can't see it, doesn't mean they're not hurting. Depression, chronic fatigue, lyme disease...there is a long list of us just existing and trying to hold on to a life we once knew.

If that's her feeling then why did she shut down Kyle so hard when Kyle was talking about her Depression, during the scene where they were in the park with Erika?  She was very adamant that Lyme is different, incomparable.  But I guess it is?

 

She really challenges the limits of my ability to be compassionate.  I can't wrap my head around this need she seems to have to be everyone's spokesperson, whether it's for Lyme or now, apparently, other chronic illnesses.  Why not just go get healthy, find the treatment that works, and maybe come back if you find something that works, if you have to come back at all?  Or if you have to document...get with a documentary crew, not a reality show on Bravo of all places.

 

On another note, I'm going to assume the Kardashian fat harvesting is false because it's disgusting.  Although if they had stumbled across a weight loss technique besides that they probably would be selling it...

Me too! And that really bothers me because, I'm a very compassionate person towards people suffering.

She, Yolanda, is saying something different NOW because of the flack she got on social media and on forums like this about her comments regarding Depression ( I have no doubts she reads HW forums regularly or has someone do it for her ). Yolanda is VERY media savvy and is pandering to public/viewer opinions, so she is trying to undo any damage she may have caused herself with those comments. JMO

Why did the place yo got her implants removed say Fang fitness?

I'm surprised they let her health advocate, without any kind of license, stay in the operating room.

As a nurse, that surprised me too. I noticed she had no gloves on and then her dirty cell phone snapping pics. Kept thinking, stay out of the sterile field lady. She did have a mask on though, didn't she. You no in cased she sneezed all over things. Yuk. Doesn't seem very smart to me.

As long as Daisy didn't touch anything, it's probably permitted, because she wouldn't need to be sterile, she just needs to keep her filthy hands to herself. Same with the camera crew filming it all.

Yolanda's showed the cover of her manila folder when she met with Gigi, Bella and Anwar about her wishes if she dies from surgery. Their names, along with hearts in descending size, were on the cover of the folder. It was pretty straightforward who Yolanda prefers. I think she favors Gigi because she sees herself in Gigi, in looks and career. She's living vicariously through Gigi now because she's all done as far as her own career as a hot, sexy model.

 

Here's the pecking order;

 

You are so, so mean!  Obviously it's just that, due to the worst case of Lyme Disease in the history of the world -- heck, the worst case of ANY disease in the history of the world - Yo initially FORGOT she had THREE children!  So she started with just Gigi; then it hit her that she had another daughter....then she finally remembered she had a son.

 

Give the woman a Nobel prize for remembering all her children while suffering from the worst case of the worst disease ever! ! ! !

 

 

And in real life, ROFL on the picture.

I think Yolanda has figured out that there are two narratives competing right now.

 

1.  Yolanda is a malingerer who is exaggerating her symptoms to get attention and sympathy (from David, her kids, the viewers)

 

2.  Many people suffer from invisible chronic illnesses; their illnesses are often not well understood and their pain and suffering is dismissed

 

By the way, I myself think both of those things are true.  Just because millions of people suffer from chronic pain and invisible illnesses, does not mean that Yolanda Foster is not a big faker.

 

But ultimately one story is going to "win" and run the season.  So Yolanda is leaning into the second story: positioning herself as an advocate not just for Lyme Disease, but for the silent sufferers of chronic illness.  Because she's figured out that is where her likely road to victory lies.

 

But here's the thing, Yolanda, NO ONE can say you are suffering in silence.  You are the LOUDEST sufferer I have ever known!

Why would Yo call her mother?  We saw her hugging her mother goodbye as she left for the surgery.

 

I think Bravo just chose to air Gigi's phone call, but there are so many possible explanations it's just a non issue to me.  Anwar doesn't seem to want to be on this show very much, Gigi was in Australia and possibly unreachable the day before, flying or working.  OR she could have talked to Anwar and Bella too and it was just edited out.  Bravo goes for fame when it can, and Gigi is definitely the most famous of Yo's kids.

OMG! She will post anything to get sympathy!

Maybe for sympathy, maybe to educate - who knows.

A bit of both,IMO.

Still nasty.

Yet her own daughter, Gigi, got silicone implants.

I know she got implants, but do we know if they are silicone?
