I think she's taking a page from Danielle's book and just going bonkers at anything simply to stay on next season. I don't care for her at all and it just goes to show money can't buy you class #thecountess As far as Tre defending her, I really, really hope for her sake that this is a producer forcing her to go over there so there is a clear divide of us vs. them story line. I may be crazy but I thought I saw some hesitation and reluctance when she said she was going over there to talk to Jen. It really doesn't make any sense for her to feel such a commitment to a woman she doesn't have a long history with... I also agree with other posters that Marge's comment about Jen's lip liner was a low blow but I feel that Marge is one of these people that when they are backed into a corner they come out with claws fully out and ready to throw down. 3 Link to comment

I did some googling after Teresa made that comment about NYE - it turns out that she and the girls (and her father) were at Moon Palace in Jamaica, which is another resort owned/managed by the same company as LeBlanc. Moon Palace is family friendly, and also a very nice property. I wonder if Teresa got a discounted rate or free trip for her family, because Moon Palace usually is pretty expensive, especially during the holidays. But this was filmed last year, and Tre went to Moon Palace this year. so Where did she go in 2018? I don't care enough to search, but Im still curious! Link to comment

Now if she was making fun of Jennifer having big lips and compared them to a monkey's ass, sure, that's insulting. If she were calling Jennifer ugly or calling out a bunch of cosmetic surgeries and calling it a horrible job, then again, insulting. And to be honest, I don't think Marge was wrong about her lip liner. Jennifer did a horrible job with her lip make-up. She clearly used the lip liner to give the appearance of fuller lips but she was supposed to blend the liner in so that the full/plump look appears natural. 1 9 Link to comment

Not only was it a lifestyle change (eating healthy, so much working out), but I do think she had to overcome some fears about getting up on stage and being judged. Generally I can't really stand her, but in this instance I have to commend her efforts and the example she set for her daughters regarding setting a goal and doing what must be done to achieve it. My hairdresser did a competition last year, had the purple sparkly bikini, mahogany spray tan, toes hanging off the end of her lucit heels, all of it...the 6 months of training and depriving herself of food and water to make her veins pop made her realize that when it was over it was just going to be a one and done. It is a lot of hard work and Tre nailed it but if Joe was still at home she would had never attempted it which is sad that her soulmate/love of her life, the man who is supposed to support her no matter what would have not let her try this because he is caveman like in his thinking. 2 Link to comment

David Beador tried this, but realized too late that his mistress wasn't his ride or die. Thanks to all of these douches, I can't just brush aside slightly weird relationship dynamics because they often seem to be hiding larger plans for a husband to divorce his wife.

WordsWordsWords January 28, 2019 Share January 28, 2019 Jennifer - I know I'll sound like a broken record (thus showing my age with that *laughing*), but can Jennifer be more horrifying? Every time I think she's hit the bottom rung of the "classless and tasteless" ladder, she finds yet another, lower rung to swing on. And in this episode, she topped herself twice. First she dropped in on her husband, obnoxious brat in tow, to bring him some sushi and check to be sure he wasn't being draped on by some bitchy patient. After some displays of brilliant parenting by both parents, she and the brat depart -- much to the relief of the "other workers" who'd been saddled with the spoiled kid while Mummy and Daddy sparred for the cameras. Then, in Mexico, Jennifer gets her knickers in a twist over the necklace the women had given Teresa. I swear, even if I'd thought it was the single most hideous thing I'd ever seen, I wouldn't have said so if I'd been Jennifer. But then, I'm not that petty. My husband has a business, and lots of my friends do NOT do business with him. Guess what? Neither he nor I care. We keep things friendly because sometime in the future, they *might*. And if they don't, that's fine, too, because we're not worried about it. Danielle - She's sly, you've gotta give her that. Not smart. Not even clever. But sly. She'll take three or four true words you've said and twist them into something you didn't mean. You can't say you didn't say them because you did. You just didn't mean them the way she's presenting them. Or she'll take your three/four true words and then add others to them. You'll tie yourself in knots saying, "But that's not quite what I said," while she stands there, smirking at you. Sly. Melissa - Like almost all of you, I don't think she was surprised by the news of a secret half-sister. I don't think her mother was terribly surprised either. I also don't believe anyone found out about said sister from a medium. On the other hand, I've recently had more than one friend discover previously known half-siblings by DNA research, so I'm not immediately skeptical of the whole story line. Teresa - I have to admire her dedication to fitness. If she falls off the diet and no-drinking wagon too quickly, however, she'll regret it. Her digestion and metabolism will have changed over the last year or so and won't handle alcohol and fat as well as she might wish. Margaret - Mostly I like her. Not always. I think her monkey's a-hole comment was out of line, honestly, but she'd been provoked, not only at the table but for months, by Jennifer. And Jennifer, of course, overreacted to the comment by a factor of 1,000. If I had to be cast away on a deserted island with one of these women, I'd be least likely to murder Margaret in her sleep. :) 13 Link to comment

As for Jennifer's justification on all of this, if her brother's jewelry store doesn't well, why can't she help take care of her parents? Or is it a Turkish thing for only the male children to take care of the parents? She has 16 bathrooms, i'm sure also has an extra bedroom her parents could live in if things got really bad. It's not on the other women to make sure Jennifer's family is rolling in it cash. Back in my day, Jennifer's lip look was called a "mistake." My spidey senses tell me that the family is putting the arm on her for some of her Housewives money. But obviously she'd prefer putting it away for college funds designer outlet garbage.

But now this year it's "as a mother" this "as a mother" that. The distinction is fascinating. And it's probably leading somewhere, even though when she was harping at her husband about her ex's estrangement from his son I wanted to join him in saying "LEAVE IT ALONE!!"

bravofan27 January 30, 2019 Share January 30, 2019 Marge has one bio son with her first husband, who had three kids at the time she married him. I don't really like her that much, to be honest. She brags about how she was bff with Joan Rivers, so I think she took most one her one liners from Joan (who I don't find too funny either, more caustic and rude). I thought the man that came to visit her when she was doing the photoshop was the bio son... no? Randomly, I just can't stand Melissa's Joe. Is so stupid. I mean, really challenged to form any type of thought. Obnoxious and shallow. He just makes my skin crawl. If the bikini contest was a beauty contest, I can see why Tre didn't win. I thought her body looked amazing and she had the best body-- they suck in their stomachs which is why the ribs stick out like that. Everyone's ribs stick out when you suck in. 2 Link to comment

candle96 January 30, 2019 Share January 30, 2019 With Jennifer, it all came full circle to me this week. She's a spoiled brat raising spoiled brats. And her husband relates to her more as one of his spoiled brat kids than a wife. Plus he seems to hate all of them. I do feel sad for the kids, not so much for Jennifer. Lashing out about the necklace being ugly is seriously the tactics of a 6-year-old. I wonder how old she was when she got married; she doesn't seem to have matured beyond 13 - the bragging about her house, the being straight up rude to the OK hostess, going after Marge's marriage, ugh. She's really the worst. I guess I can call Margaret's retort a low blow, but I thought it was hilarious and it's the kind of thing I tune in for. Plus I'm kind of jealous of people who can think so quickly on their feet. Interesting for all her "loyalty" talk, this is the second season in a row we've seen Teresa be pretty milquetoast when it comes to her friends fighting. Seems like it's some attempt to craft an image that's different than the table-flipping Teresa, but I find it boring and sort of baffling. This loyalty to Danielle is strange. 6 Link to comment

Jennifer talks about being raised in a strict, cultural household and her family not having the means to give her the things she wanted growing up. I don't know what is the most influencing factor that shapes our personalities but I know kids grow up with humble beginnings and they learn humility and never lose that thoughtfulness and appreciation for having the smaller, necessary things in life while other kids from that situation grow up wanting everything and end up using superficial means to demand respect and admiration from people. I'm inclined to think there's a good chance when growing up and asking for things that her parents couldn't provide, Jennifer may have gotten the response 'when you grow up and have your own money, you can buy whatever you want' and so she took it to heart and only thought of a life where she had the means to buy all anything and everything she wanted. Her identity seems more wrapped up in the things she has and not in the values she holds. She's a hard pass for me this season and I hope there won't be another for her. 3 Link to comment
Hockey Addict January 30, 2019 Share January 30, 2019 Jennifer supposedly has a business degree according to one site? Can you imagine working with that? 2 Link to comment

Hockey Addict January 30, 2019 Share January 30, 2019 Proper Turkish wife 101 teaches that not only is nauseating bragging great for you but spoiling kids, having fits at someone else's dinner, and threatening someone with a broken wine glass are all acceptable. 2 Link to comment
kassa January 31, 2019 Share January 31, 2019 I call bull on just how strict/traditional an upbringing she got from her family. I live a pretty secular life but I can't think of anybody I know who would make the jerk off gesture a) on camera; b) in front of their father; or c) on camera in front of their father. And there wasn't the excuse of drunkenness that day (unless she day drinks). Not that public drunkenness is typical of strict/traditional/conservative/religious folks of any denomination, either. 7 Link to comment

Seems like it's some attempt to craft an image that's different than the table-flipping Teresa, but I find it boring and sort of baffling. This loyalty to Danielle is strange. I have a feeling Danielle pledged her undying allegiance to all-things Teresa last season when she was allowed back as a friend-of, and it's benefiting both of them. Teresa likes nothing more than to not only have control, but to have someone on her side at all times. And that is Danielle, who obviously sees Teresa as her meal ticket to relevancy.

kassa January 31, 2019 Share January 31, 2019 Tre laughed with delight at Danielle going after Margaret. I could buy the talking head support as being done for her part on the show, but she also gets a genuine kick out of Danielle so long as she's going after somebody else. They're cut from the same cloth temperamentally and morally. 5 Link to comment
MajorNelson February 1, 2019 Share February 1, 2019 Watched E12 and E13 back to back, so this is late. But for the whole Stepsister business, I agree with the most of the posters who think the medium was a plot device for bringing up this thing that they already know. TWIST: There is a stepsister, and turns out it is Melissa. 2 Link to comment

She's so obnoxious. And Bill can have a seat. He spoils them too. "Go home and I'll get it for you." Asshole. I had a little different take on Dr. Evil's comment - He said it to get rid of the daughter - probably hoping she would forget or have moved onto something else by the time he gets home (I gotta say I probably played that card a couple of times myself) He said it to look good for a minute in front of Jennifer - "..yeah my husband said he gets things that our children want ... " It gives him yet another excuse to run around, taking forever to come home".. yeah I was in the city looking for xyz for our daughter.." knowing damn well he was just waiting for Amazon Prime to deliver... Maybe Jackie's article asking how can kids stay sane and normal when they are given everything they want....hits the mark. Whoopsie! So she was chastised for writing something too close to the truth.
