Overcompensating. I totally am not surprised. I know couple that does the same shit and they are barely hanging on. |
+1. I agree with Ken she looked ill. I'm sure she could've had someone do her hair and make up but needed her friends to understand that she is really sick. |
| Blind Gossip is reporting that Yolanda wanted her own spin off for her family. The spin off would include all her children and their dating, rich celebrities come in and out, etc. In order for it to work, everyone in the family had to sign off. David refused. |
Ha! Totally makes sense. I saw her on Access Hollywood tonight. She didn't seem too broken up about the break-up. |
|
When a spouse has a serious illness, it can change a marriage's dynamic immensely.
This could have happened to them. Yolanda is a beautiful woman at 51, I see no shortage of men for her now. Plus her kids are grown so she can have a private life now w/out worrying about her child's needs too much. |
|
In sickness and in health...oh, wait.
I doubt they would be getting divorced if the situation was reversed and David was the one ill. |
Yes, this does confirm David Foster's asshole-hood. |

Here's my take on Yolanda's appearance at Lisa's b-day dinner.
I do think she's sick, though have no idea with what. Quite possibly it's Lyme, since that has a reputation for being so difficult to treat. However... I felt that she went to that dinner for the sole reason of reminding everyone just how sick she is. I can't stand being around people who just want to talk about their illness, and nothing else. Here she was, at a festive occasion, and it seemed the only things she could talk about were her symptoms (the affected cough, the sweaty palms, etc.). I think she deliberately wore no makeup so that she could prove to everyone how ill she is. I don't care one way or another if a woman wears makeup or not, but I did think that was a very deliberate and calculated choice, designed to get everyone talking about her. It's not that I don't sympathize with her for being sick. I just hate it when people appear to enjoy getting attention for being sick (her bedridden, sickly Instagram photos - who does that??). If I was that sick, I would never have shown up at any event (especially a filmed one, duh!). |
Exactly. He's always come across as a class A Jerk. |
I agree with this 100%. |
I agree, too, and it makes me wonder if the continued filming was the real deal breaker. If my spouse were that sick and we could afford the best possible care, I'd be angry about their insistence on showing up at work, especially if that job entailed us both being on camera. If the rumors about the spinoff show are true, I can see how that would be the last straw. |
I also agree. And, I think she misses and enjoys being a famous celebrity. She wouldn't have wanted to disappear from tv shows due to illness. I don't agree with the PP who said lots of men will date her now. She's made such a big deal about being sick, that I don't think she's going to be beating men off with a stick - not until she's claiming to be recovered and ready for love. I think most men in Hollywood are to self-absorbed to start a serious relationship with a woman who has a chronic illness, particularly one as vague and hard to treat as this. |

What did you all think about David's obligatory visit to Yolanda's dental procedure? He looked like he couldn't get out of there fast enough.
I thought Lisa R's face said it all when they opened Yolanda's closet and saw the incredible amount of medicine she's been taking. If Yolanda wasn't sick before, she's probably making herself sick with all that medication she's on. I wonder what would happen if she simply stopped taking all of it and went to a retreat by herself for a month, spending lots of time outdoors. I bet her body would go back to normal. Which isn't to say she's not sick - I have no idea. But it does kind of look like major hypochondria. I think the worst of it is her putting her sick selfies on Instagram and always talking about it. Ugh. That alone would drive me away, whether I was a friend or a spouse. (Not to excuse David Foster - I think he's a toad - but I can see how off-putting this might be to a spouse.) |
I know someone exactly like this IRL (coincidentally, they have lyme too). everything that comes out of their mouth relates to their illness and, more specifically, themselves. I do feel bad that they are ill but the narcissism displayed in the vast majority of their posts makes it a little more difficult to feel sorry for them. JMO. |
| I thought David's comment about "no sex for 48 hours" when he was leaving the dental procedure was crude. |
