Yeah and her beloved brand is called skinny girl. She is totally obsessed. If she was so anti eating disorder maybe her brand should be called healthy girl.

Bethenny (sp?) - I think it was gross that somebody filmed her going through her empty marital home crying. That's weird and should have been private. Her divorce finalizing is sad and I'm sure her medical problems scared her. I think both those things made her a bit more shrill and impatient than usual. I think she meant well in telling LuAnn about Tom's cheating. LuAnn being angry at her for that is ridiculous.

It wasn't bravo - SHE asked her assistant to film it.

And then gave it to Bravo to air...

I actually thought Carole was skinnier then Jules, she wears bulky clothing so its difficult to tell. I also find it irnonic the two thinnest women on the show criticized Jules for her weight before they were even aware of her issue. I still find Bethenny entertaning though, esp with her convo at the restaraunt with Luann when she told her she was engaged

And then Jules was so classy about the stuff that Bethenny was saying about her having the prenup and coming on the show to get divorced. She completely Let It Go and then Bethenny had to go in and say, but it's true! You are getting divorced! That's not the same thing as going on a show TO GET divorced. And Michael is an asshole anyway. Bethenny has to pour gasoline on it? What a bitch!

Attacking how Jules practices her religion really crossed the line. And how hypocritical, after B got her kid baptized in some church her nanny attends that she was not at all knowledgeable about.

On Watch What Happens Live, she made a point of saying that she's Jewish. It was weird and incongruous to the conversation, as if she'd planned it and needed to get it in there.

I think Jules was doing her best to show value by being quirky and different from the other women - because she is. Bethenny didn't like being replaced as the youngest and prettiest so she stomped all over her.

or thinnest

Ok, here is my take:

Carole - skeletor in a Victorian dress. Tries to pull of this hipster, don't care vibe but it's not working.

Luann - totally self absorbed. however, i'm pretty impressed with how she holds up with all of the hating on her.

Dorinda - I would be happy for her to return next season. her daughter seems like an incredibly immature person. Also, Dorinda has been outed as a cocaine addict, so she may be more interesting to watch.

Jules - boring

Bethany - skeletor #2. Terrible person. tries so hard to be the female woody allen - so neurotic "aren't i cute?". comes off as very annoying. she is not a good person.

Ramona - getting really sick of this 'Catholic school girl' innocence she tries to put out there. not buying it, never have. she seems like someone who would step on you if you were down.

sonja - really, really boring. anything with sonja - i fast-forward on my DVR. So uninterested with her and her stupid interns.

Love Sonja! Bethenny. I still find her extremely funny and think her brand is fantastic however I felt bad for Jules

Is Jill going to be in part three of the reunion?

Here's my take:

Carole - dressed like an old Victorian lady with that blouse. Is Adam turned on by stuff like that, I wonder? She WAS quite mean-girlish this season. I did not think her comment about Dorinda's ex husband's stuff being all over that house was awful, but understand why Dorinda was hurt by it. I agree with Carole's statement that it's natural in a group of women for a couple to pair off.

Dorinda Medler - you know what was my favorite scene? When she went to Sonja's house to help clean out the basement. They were both dressed like real people, they had an honest talk, it was genuine. I think she has a good heart but a bad nose from all that coke and a bad boyfriend from Queens. You just KNOW he sweats copiously. Can you imagine if we sent John to the OC to be Vicki's boyfriend? She would be apoplectic at the things he says.

Lie-Ann - in complete denial. Everything Bethanney (sp?) says about her is true. It's also harsh. Noel and Victoria must be so embarrassed to be related to LuAnn. This thing with Tom won't end well.

Ramona - I have always hated her. Nothing has changed. I said it before but I'll say it here - I'd be happy if she left and Jill came back. When she laughs I feel unsafe, like I'm in the company of someone mentally unstable.

Sonja - her tipsy girl thing was not cool, and I can't imagine she honestly didn't know that. I applaud her trying to drink less. She can be fun while sober. I think she was trying to spare LuAnn's feelings by saying she was only with Tom five times. I think it was a lot more. Tom, like Dorinda's John, also looks like a natural sweat-er, but a prissy one, so I wouldn't be surprised if he gets Botox to stop sweating. I think Sonja would do well to stop being friends with Ramona, and to settle down with one man.

Jules - I understand that she's MUCH better than she used to be with her eating disorder, but she's very much still in the throes of it. Her jokes did NOT go over well. Nobody got her humor. Rio is a total brat, and it seems like Jules encourages that. If she can do it healthily, I think she should come back next season.

Bethenny (sp?) - I think it was gross that somebody filmed her going through her empty marital home crying. That's weird and should have been private. Her divorce finalizing is sad and I'm sure her medical problems scared her. I think both those things made her a bit more shrill and impatient than usual. I think she meant well in telling LuAnn about Tom's cheating. LuAnn being angry at her for that is ridiculous.

I agree that Bethenny has been out of control all season, but I'm more surprised at how delusional Luanne is. Is she so desperate to get married that she's just turning a blind eye to her fiancé s faults? And if she's just embarrassed and trying to save face in public, it isn't working. Her stubborn refusal to admit anything about him actually makes her look more pathetic IMO.

But if she is so desperate, why wouldn't she have married Jacques?

Because Jacques wouldn't marry her. He also dumped her.

It just feels like she was brought in to make things dramatic and she is convinced she has. That is why there are all the fake apologies and pleas for sympathy due to her health.

I think she's in a trap. She needs reality TV to keep her brand going, and drama keeps her on the show.

But the show seems to be ruining her life. She looked genuinely distraught in the footage of her roaming around her emptied apartment. But then you realize, she wouldn't have had the apartment in the first place if it weren't for the show. Skinny Girl wouldn't have happened, Jason wouldn't have happened, maybe Brynn wouldn't have happened.

The irony is that I think this last season will negatively impact her entire business.

I think it was over before this season. When her talk show didn't pan out, and there was all that bad press about her divorce and she came crawling back to RHONY and looked insane, that was the proverbial nail in the coffin. Nobody wants Bethenny's miserable life, so her brand will suffer. Just like Martha Stewart's brand suffered after she went to prison. You can't be the face of an aspirational lifestyle brand when your life is in shambles.

I thought that the sobbing in the apartment was fake and I'd bet she told her assistant to film it. I don't doubt that her emotions were real but it was off putting to see someone filming it.

It's like someone got in my head and wrote my exact thoughts...

Wow, some great stuff in there:

And who the hell records themselves sobbing into the empty closet over the loss of a love they faked for a TV show? Oh, the same person who vociferously declares that she never lies while being caught in lies.



After Luann once again goes to bat for Tom‘s murky truths, Ramona leans over in her negligee from Courtney Love’s 1994 Delia’s collection, to gently and kindly share that she is worried for Luann.


Sonja, who spent the better part of a season waxing poetically about the ten beautiful years she spent as Tom‘s under-cover lover, now admits with hesitation that she really only slept with him, maybe, five times. Exaggerate much, Jill Zarin? But two of those times Sonja went to Tom’s house so that makes them worth double, right?! Luann maintains they slept together only once, because Tom said so. Because his record is so impeccable!


Last night Bethenny was on WWHL and admitted to texting Dennis daughter to arrange the phone call before it was made. #NoWords #ToiletBowlPerson
