Bottom line, almost every woman on this show has some sort of major issue (relationships, money, health). It is a shit show (but I am tuned in to every episode)!

Yes, 1000000x this. She banged this guy??? How embarrassing.

I was thinking the same thing! Plus he sounded like he was on drugs.

I'm not sure if he actually WAS on drugs at the moment of filming, but he all but admitted he did them in his exchange with LuAnn on camera. She asked him if he was high or stoned (I can't remember the actual phrasing, but it was one of the two) and he didn't get huffy, or say "what are you talking about?" As someone who doesn't use drugs would do. He just said no, very matter-of-factly.

Seems like Ryen and Luann may have had more then she led on...: http://iksplain.com/index.php/2016/05/19/luann-exaggerating-stalker-rey-sheds-new-details/

For those saying Bethenny was too harsh on Sonja: do you honestly believe Sonja would have listened to anything Bethenny said if B was calm, collected, and "nice" about the conversation?

I felt sorry for Sonja but embarrassed for Bethenny. She's as much of a mess emotionally as Sonja is professionally.

BF said she had no worries about Sonja as a business threat, which means she set up that meeting to inflict as much personal pain as possible. Doing it in front of her staff in their little one-room shop was tactless.

She was never trying to be a mentor, she was trying to shame Sonja into the realization that she's a failure. And the insult Bethenny felt was that Sonja thought she could be in the same league.

I can usually find a way to feel sorry for even the most villainous women in these shows but I don't think there's a way to do that with Bethenny. She's a stone cold bitch and it's not just for show.

Bethenny could have told Sonja that she was mad about the name privately, without her minions looking on, and not said all that mean stuff about her being a failure, etc. It was irrelevant. Bethenny has a right to be mad, but she is a terrible person.

I normally think that Bethenny overreacts, but I actually think she was on point here. The office is only one real room, so it's unclear if the "minions" had anywhere else to go. Plus, this is being filmed so Sonja's failures were going to be exposed in a public shaming anyways. Sonja also called Page Six about this business venture, so she really started the publicity tour of her new biz venture and left herself open to this criticism. In business, you have to be tough and ruthless and that's why Bethenny is so successful. Sonja started it by visibly copying Bethenny's brand and at first denying it and then copping to it by saying she needs to put food on the table. I actually think Bethenny handled it quite calmly and walked away before she really started to embarrass Sonja.

I also thought Bethenny brought up a good point, Sonja can't have it both ways, she's either a saavy business woman or she's someone who doesn't know anything. Up until this point Sonja's always carried on about what a smart business woman she is. So what is it?

LuAnn's ex-boyfriend. He was gross. Isn't he gay? Why would she want to be with him? She obviously was pretty embarrassed to be caught with him.

Yes--brokeback mountain gay. And that says nothing about him and more about what a real freakazoid LuAnn is. Every other Thursday and twice on Tuesday that woman is feining for sex. Someone is always coming to her house and 'spending' the night.. I hope no viewers let that one slip passed them and she is questioned on the reunion. RHNY is a train wreck of women with useless titles and horse teeth. Keep it coming. Sleeping with an obviously gay psychopath. HILARIOUSSSS!!!

It all looks like the same thing to me.

She claimed to have known the people behind Skinny Cow and that her Skinny Girl is different. Her argument with John didn't make sense to me then or now.

Not much beyond the obvious. She did know the skinny cow 'guy' whoever that was. There was no issue/competition between them. SkinnyGirl was one word and was alcohol. Tipsy Girl was close enough that Bethany has applied for a copyright on TipsyGirl (no space) or something. Let the lawyers decide.

Are copyright laws that strict?

I think it would be a trademark, not a copyright, issue.

Agree with PP. I do think what Sonya did was incredibly shady, and as a legitimate and successful businesswoman Bethenny is well within her rights to be concerned about the brand being associated with her because of the name and the fact that it's founder (Sonja) is on a show with her. Based on all prior evidence, TipsyGirl will not be well-run, or successful, and it's understandable that Bethenny doesn't want to be attached to that involuntarily.

That said, she didn't need to dress Sonja down in front of others. I did think what Sonja said made a bit of an impression on her, and she dialled it back from how hard she was initially prepared to go at her.

Ramona had a jewelry line with her husband. True faith. I think that was the name.

Maybe She's not that active in the business right now?

Jules has a line of protein/invigorating health drinks sold at WF.
