Andy Cohen urges fans, again, to call E! If they have a problem with the new RHONY. With Jill having already been fired, the more Andy talks, the more he can only be talking about one person… The Singer Stinger.  Buzzzzzzz like a bee. Speaking of RHONY’s return, rumors and nastiness are still circulating that Jill Zarin is not doing okay, cannot get over blaming herself for her termination and has checked into a facility for mental help.  RHOSLC contracts are now rumored to have a very strict “no bloggers” clause. Expect every other franchise, and rest of Bravo TV, to follow. Last, but not least, Rachel Zoe speaks her truth, upsets her soon to be ex and dominates as this season of RHOBH heats up.

Lisa Rinna is spilling all sorts of tea ahead of tomorrow night’s reunion of The Traitors and we are seated. Let us never forget one of the Housewife greats and, as Lisa has taught us this week, if you want a housewife, you will get a housewife. Hunni. Dorinda is set to replace Jill on the new RHONY, kinda, maybe, maybe not. Bethenny Frankel who knows it all, is now on the case to solve Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance with a a theory that seems to make a lot of sense. Kim Kardashian talks Larsa Pippen. Last, but not least, a whole host of Bravolebs have rejected The Traitors for a whole host of reasons, many of which make no sense at all whatsoever.

Even though it happened a few weeks ago, Andy Cohen has more to say on Jill Zarin’s cancellation and it is not nice at all in any way shape or form.  Bethenny Frankel has snapped, does not give one F about what y’all say and urges everyone to block her, unfollow and/ or cancel. #freespeech Lisa Rinna cries over her RHOBH exit and mentions it all. Guerdy gets upset at Bravo. Last, but not least, Rachel Zoe is on the move and possibly has a new man.

Dorit and Kyle are not well these days and there are oh so many real reasons why this friendship is dunzo. Erika too. Next, we weigh in on how to fix this rather lackluster season of RHOBH and it ain’t pretty. Ashley Darby accuses Stacey Rusch of paying bloggers. Last, but not least, the RHONJ cast is rendered helpless, according to Melissa Gorga, that is.

Wendy Osefo steps Behind The Rope. This season of RHOP has brought the drama but much of it was overshadowed by Wendy and Eddie’s arrest and subsequent fraud charges which we will see play out throughout much of 2026. Wendy talks RHOP cast mates past and present - Karen, Gizelle, Monique, Ashley and more. Wendy also opens up about her mother who she had one of the most memorable scenes of the whole RHOP season with.  Wendy talks RHOP highs and lows, the hardships of family and oh, so very much more. The professor is in the house for a hold nothing back chat about all things RHOP. In other words, as we like to say, Wendy mentions it all.  Part II starts now.

Kelly Dodd has done it to herself again. In a series of on line, now viral, video exchanges with the one and only Dr. Dhivya Srinivasa, Kelly has managed to alienate more Bravoholics and Housewives, subject herself to savage takedowns by the Good Doc herself and seemingly lose sponsors, or at least fake sponsors, by the apparent  masses. Will Jeff Lewis be next to jump ship and abandon his sometimes radio guest Kelly? In other news, The RHOP Reunion, Part I, has come and gone and it might as well have been called The Wendy Show. Wendy reveals she will never be the same person after her arrest, is upset she had her liberties taken away in jail and seemed more upset over Karen’s conviction than her own current he$$.  Last, but not least, Andy Cohen defends RHORI!

Another day, another twist and turn in the saga that is otherwise known as the return of RHONY. This time, the fan outcry over the casts political beliefs, the Jill Zarin of it all, Ramona’s Page Six disaster, Kelly Bensimon’s DMs and the return of the one, and only Miss Kelly Dodd. Andy Cohen defends Amanda Frances and slams the fans for being mean to her. Bethenny Frankel weighs in on Carole Radziwill’s connections to Jeffrey Epstein with brand new message. Last, but not least, the truth behind Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance gets stranger by the day.
