    Lisa Rinna took aim at Garcelle Beauvais and Denise Richards in her just-released memoir, You Better Believe I’m Going To Talk About It.

    As she also shot down the idea that her husband of nearly 29 years, Harry Hamlin, 74, was gay, the 62-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum accused Garcelle, 59, and Denise, 55, of going into the show with agendas, claimed the two of them, along with Sutton Stracke, 54, were “full-blown narcissists,” offered updates on her relationships with her former co-stars, and more.

    “[Garcelle] came onto the show with an agenda,” Lisa wrote in her February 24 release. “We mixed like oil and water, and she was firmly on Denise’s side.”

    According to Lisa, she was “the Narcissist Hunter of Beverly Hills” because she was “really good at sussing them out.”

    “All those women are full-blown narcissists. I’m talking Garcelle, Sutton, and Denise,” she stated. “I was always called a bad friend because I didn’t support these newbies when they first came on the show. But, it was because I found out they were bad dudes. They put on a good show, but on a fundamental level we just did not vibe at all.”

    Although Lisa described Denise’s first season with the show, season nine, as “uneventful,” she recalled her ex-co-star entering her sophomore year “on a rampage.”

    “I noticed right away she wasn’t being buddy-buddy with me. Maybe she knew she didn’t make much of an impression on her first season? Maybe producers told her she needed to step it up?” she wondered. “Who knows, but that’s when she came at Garcelle, [Erika Jayne], [Kyle Richards], [Dorit Kemsley], and me at her backyard barbecue, saying we were talking about threesomes in front of her kids. She’ll never cop to this, but Denise came in with an agenda, and it pissed me off. I thought it was shady.”

    “I realized my relationship with Denise was superficial … When I turned on her after the barbecue fiasco, she gaslit me to no end,” she added.

    After confirming that she no longer speaks to Garcelle, describing her as a “huge disappointment,” Lisa said she and Denise briefly reconciled after a close mutual friend of theirs passed away.

    “We actually got on a call together, and it was a hopeful moment. Then a couple of days later, we got into it again about something stupid. She took my olive branch and stuck it back in my eye. I haven’t communicated with her since. You’d have to ask her why she would do such a thing. My hypothesis is that she’ll never get over the ‘Oof, you’re so angry,’ comment,” she noted. 

    Three years after her exit from RHOBH, Lisa isn’t so much as considering a return.

    “That is out of the question. I’m done with that,” Lisa told Us Weekly on February 24. “I moved on from that chapter in my life, but it did heal me.”

    “I probably should have gone a little sooner. You can always look back and be like, ‘I probably should have gone a year later, a year earlier.’ But no, it happens the way it happens,” she explained. “Your path unfolds the way it’s supposed to. Everything happens for a reason, and I’m grateful for every experience that I’ve had, because doing Housewives made me who I am today.”

    After noting that she “made great friends” on the show, saying that they “trauma-bonded” and “had a blast a lot of the time, until we didn’t,” Lisa moved on to her current relationships with her former co-stars.

    “I had a fake relationship with [Lisa Vanderpump] then, and I have no relationship with her now,” Lisa revealed to Us Weekly, sharing in her book that their dynamic was “complicated.”

    Also in her book, Lisa said her relationship with Kyle was “complicated.”

    “Kyle and I have had our ups and downs, but we always end up on our feet. I love Kyle. She’s smart. Very loyal. She has great empathy and cares for people. She’s a great mother. She’s really funny and witty. Kyle is one of the most enjoyable people to spend time with,” she shared.

    Lisa also had good things to say about Dorit, 49, confirming that after going “through it,” they’re “good,” and adding that she’s kept in touch with Erika, 54, Eileen Davidson, 66, Diana Jenkins, 53, and Teddi Mellencamp, 44.

    “We don’t get to see each other all the time, but she is very special to me,” Lisa said of the latter.

    She also “reached out” and “apologized” to Yolanda Hadid, 62, who “accepted” her “I’m sorry” following their Munchausen drama, “made up privately” with Kathy Hilton, 66, and got on good terms with Brandi Glanville, 53.

    “We had a horribly tumultuous time, it was not good on any level. But we’ve reconnected over the years in a way that I would have never expected, and we’re friendly now,” she wrote. “Brandi made a real effort to reconnect with me … [And] she reaches out to me quite a bit — I’m happy to talk to her.”

    As for who she doesn’t “care to” speak to or about, those honors go to Sutton and Kim Richards, 61.

    “I don’t really like to talk about Kim. It’s just not necessary,” she stated.

    During another chapter of her book, Lisa addressed gay rumors about Harry, whom she married in 1997 and shares daughters Delilah Belle Hamlin, 27, and Amelia Gray Hamlin, 24, with.

    “When you’re a good-looking man in Hollywood with a good sense of style, that adds up to ‘Is he gay?’ Let’s just clear this up one last time, once and for all: Harry’s heterosexual,” Lisa declared. “He is not a gay man in any way, shape, or form, not that there’s anything wrong with that. I had actually never heard those rumors until Housewives. I just figured b*tches will say anything to get my hackles up, so it never concerned me. My reaction was always more, ‘Why you mad, boo?’ Besides, every husband’s sexuality was questioned at some point on that show.”

    According to Lisa, Harry’s sexuality was questioned after he played a gay man in the 1982 film Making Love.

    “Mainstream films about gay men are still rare today, but back then it was unheard of,” she wrote. “It had never been done. It was way before its time.”

    Applauding Harry for making a brave decision, Lisa revealed “it bit him in the a**,” sharing that he “was blacklisted for several years afterward.”

    As for the status of their marriage, Lisa said she and Harry “have a great amount of trust.”

    “I don’t ever worry about Harry. I am not jealous. he’s not jealous … I would be shocked if I found out he was having an affair,” she admitted.

  • Tamra Judge Addresses if She’s Suing Gretchen Rossi, Talks RHOC Reunion “Attack” and Says She “Couldn’t Move” for Days: “I Didn’t Even Really Do Anything This Season to Even Be Taken Down”

    [ad_1]

    Tamra Judge suggested that she was moving forward with a lawsuit against Gretchen Rossi while appearing on Jeff Lewis‘ podcast on Friday.

    As the 58-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star denied leaking information to bloggers, addressed her castmates’ reunion attack, and admitted that she doesn’t trust any of her co-stars, Tamra confessed to being “confused” by the mysterious finale phone call, named the one person who was there for her amid Teddi Mellencamp‘s brain cancer diagnosis, and answered a question about whether or not she was planning to sue Gretchen, 47.

    “Stay tuned,” Tamra teased on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live on November 21 when pressed about the potential legal action.

    After being accused of leaks, Tamra said she’d never do such a thing.

    “That’s a no. No. What would I get out of it?” she wondered. “Someone on the cast I won’t name said, ‘You do it so bloggers are nice to you.’ And I said, ‘What f*cking blogger’s nice to me?’ I have like three, and they have like 200 followers.”

    “It’s ridiculous,” she added of the claims.

    Looking back at the reunion, Tamra admitted, “It felt like an attack,” as she revealed she was immobile for days.

    “The first two days after the reunion, I couldn’t even move … I just sat there … I couldn’t function. I just couldn’t believe what was going on or what had happened. So it was tough,” she shared. “Even two weeks after, it was still in my head. I’m like, ‘Why? But why? Why did this happen?’”

    “It was hard, especially from certain people on the cast that I have been very kind to and didn’t know where this was coming from … it’s going after my character and [saying] that I can’t be trusted,” she continued. 

    According to Tamra, it’s her castmates whom she can’t trust, not the other way around.

    “I don’t trust any of these girls I’m on the show with — not one of them,” she declared. “It’s the housewife way. You know if something comes up, they’re gonna throw it out there. That’s what they’re paid to do. So it’s very hard to trust somebody.”

    Regarding the finale phone call, which came from an unidentified source who suggested she was behind the season 19 leaks, Tamra said it was “very, very, very confusing.”

    “The whole thing is confusing to me … There’s a lot of things I just don’t understand,” she explained.

    As for whether it was the women staging a take-down, Tamra wondered what their reason would’ve been.

    “I didn’t even really do anything this season to even be taken down. I feel like I was in a place of sadness because filming and what was going on with Teddi, I was just really, really sad and devastated, and I just kind of felt like nobody was there for me,” she recalled. “Every time I went into a scene, everyone was going to poke at me because it’s like, ‘Oh, poke at Tamra, she’s gonna explode. She’s gonna give us good TV.’ And I wasn’t in the spot. I was in a spot where I just wanted people to hug me and say, ‘It’s gonna be okay.’”

    Though most of her castmates weren’t supportive of her when she needed it the most, Tamra did acknowledge Heather Dubrow, 56, saying, “Heather was there for me. She would call me.”

  • Gretchen Rossi Denies Slade Was Behind RHOC Blogger Finale Call Controversy, Addresses Homophobic Posts She’s Accused of Liking as She’s Seen With Trump Hat in Resurfaced Clip

    [ad_1]

    Gretchen Rossi is speaking out amid claims that Slade Smiley was the person behind the distorted male voice heard at the end of the finale episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County.

    After the unidentified person accused Tamra Judge, 58, of leaking stories about the show, Gretchen, 47, addressed the rumors in a comment after Zack Peter, of the No Filter with Zack Peter podcast, alleged that it was “1,000 percent true” that Tamra had been in touch with podcasters and bloggers throughout season 19, and had leaked information about what was going down behind the scenes.

    “I can say that with full conviction. I’ve known about this since at least July,” Zack began in a video shared to Instagram on October 31.

    According to Zack, he believed the finale phone call and the DMs that preceded it likely came from a producer.

    “This happens in reality TV a lot, where producers will get info and they’ll leak it through like a DM or through like an anonymous Q&A question or something, and it’s to push the storyline forward. It happens in reality TV all the time,” he explained.

    Whatever the case, Zack said he can “guarantee” that “Tamra’s absolutely been leaking things for months.”

    “She’s been reaching out to podcasters, she’s been telling them not to have Gretchen on their show, not to interview Gretchen because, ‘Just wait. At the finale, Gretchen’s gonna be exposed. There are these homophobic posts, and Gretchen’s been ‘liking’ them.’ I can probably name at least five people that have gotten this info from Tamra over the last several months,” he stated. “She’s absolutely been planting seeds all summer long.”

    Zack then criticized Teddi Mellencamp, 44, for dragging Scheana Shay, 40, into the storyline by suggesting she was involved in the passing on of the rumor regarding the supposed drugging and hospitalization of Gretchen.

    “She knew exactly what she was doing by throwing Scheana Shay’s name into the mix because the Bravo fans already hate Scheana that it was just a greater adversary for them to direct their heat onto, and they got their pitchforks, and the fans loved it, and they came for Scheana’s neck,” he suspected.

    Following the sharing of the post, someone suggested that the voice heard on the finale was that of Slade.

    “They all leak stuff to the bloggers. In all the franchises. However the difference with Tamra is when every podcaster or a blogger interviews her she straight up comes out and says what she has to say boldly … We see it in the replays. Why would she ‘leak’ things that she says out right? Even on their Two Ts in a Pod. Gretchen and Slade clearly set this up and that voice sounds like Slade,” they alleged.

    But Gretchen denied it, suggesting there is proof to the contrary.

    “It’s not Slade [and] all the cast [and] production can verify that,” Gretchen replied.

    RHOC Gretchen Rossi Reacts to Rumor of Slade Being Behind Blogger Phone Call

    Another fan said that while they didn’t believe that Gretchen had “liked” the homophobic and anti-abortion rights posts, they didn’t understand how the screenshots could’ve been manufactured.

    “If you watch they said they found the original posts and they were not showing Gretchen liking them, I think it gets exposed at the reunion that the [screenshots] had been faked,” someone replied. 

    And after seeing the second fan’s comment, Gretchen confirmed, “Yep.”

    RHOC Gretchen Rossi Denies Liking Controversial IG Posts

    Then, after Scheana reacted to Zack’s video with a series of clapping emojis, someone else asked, “So are bloggers going to be the main topic on every housewives show now?”

    “It’s a fabricated post, I didn’t like that … and that is NOT Slade on that phone call,” Gretchen insisted.

    RHOC Gretchen Rossi Denies Blogger Call Was From Slade Smiley

    Another IG user asked why Tamra was getting heat for “leaking” Gretchen’s supposedly “liked” posts when it was Gretchen who reportedly “liked” them.

    “Because as we spoke about this morning, those posts are old. Tamra has known about them for a long time but strategically waited until the finale to use them against Gretchen. Tamra’s circle is surround by MAGA people. But suddenly she takes issue with it, to jab at Gretchen? And then leak it MONTHS before airing?” Zack shared.

    RHOC Gretchen Rossi Defended by Blogger Amid Liked Posts Drama

    Meanwhile, in another video shared on Instagram by Bravo OMG, Gretchen was seen with a Trump hat in a years-old video as she held her daughter, Skylar Gray, now 6.

    “Go Trump, go! I got a Trump hat!” Gretchen declared.

    Then, after Slade warned her of a Biden hat, she added, “No, burn that one!”

    The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 reunion begins next Thursday, November 6, at 8/7c on Bravo.

    Edwin Arroyave appeared to attend a wedding with his new girlfriend over the weekend.

    After revealing on a recent episode of his shared podcast with Eddie Judge, 52, the husband of Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Judge, 58, that he was dating, Edwin, 48, the estranged husband of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp, 44, posted a photo of the two of them on his Instagram Story.

    “About last night,” he wrote in the caption of an October 27 post, tagging a woman who appeared to be named Elsa.

    While not much is known about Edwin’s new leading lady, her Instagram account mentioned her love of travel and confirmed she’s followed by Teddi.

    “I am dating someone,” Edwin confirmed on the October 14 episode of The Eds, via Taste of Reality. “It’s pretty serious.”

    Joining Edwin and Eddie for the episode was Joe Gorga, 51, who suggested that Edwin bring his new girlfriend to his comedy show at BravoCon next month.

    “OK, front row — now you’re speaking my language,” Edwin replied. “Maybe I will take her to Vegas. I was actually thinking about that.”

    As for Teddi, she too has moved on from their late 2024 split. However, after a brief romance with Ricci Rea earlier this year, she appears to be single once again. Although Teddi stepped out with Ricci for a lunch date weeks ago after confirming there was “no detectable cancer” during a recent scan, she clarified that the outing was platonic.

    Teddi and Edwin, who wed in July 2011, share three children, including Slate, 13, Cruz, 11, and Dove, 5.

  • RHOBH’s Kyle Richards Explains Dorit Kemsley’s Absence in ‘Fox Force Five’ Pic at Alexia’s Wedding, Plus Alexia Reacts to Sweet Moment Between Kyle & Mauricio

    Kyle Richards addressed Dorit Kemsley’s absence in her daughter Alexia Umansky’s wedding photo. Meanwhile, Alexia reacted to her parents’ sweet moment as she danced with the groom, Jake Zingerman.

    Kyle has been separated from Alexia’s dad Mauricio Umansky since 2023. For several years, fans have questioned if the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star will file for divorce. Last season, Kyle feuded with Dorit, who is also separated from her own husband, PK Kemsley. Recently, however, Kyle and Dorit seemed to be in a better place.

    On a September 8 Instagram post, Kyle shared a photo of herself with RHOBH castmates Lisa Rinna, Teddi Mellencamp and Erika Jayne at the September 6 wedding.

    “Celebrating love & life without a single table being flipped, nor a glass of wine tossed,” wrote Kyle in the caption.

    In the comments, a fan questioned, “Where is [Dorit?]”

    Kyle soon responded, “She was there & so was Sutton … [they] just missed the photo.”

    Around the same time, Alexia posted a TikTok of herself dancing with the groom. A user then shared a screenshot of Kyle and Mauricio smiling as they met each other’s eyes.

    “And then there is this,” said the user. Alexia responded, “Crying.”

    Last year, Kyle addressed their engagement in an interview with Parade.

    “I’m very excited. They’re just the sweetest couple. They’re definitely soulmates. They’ve been best friends since second or third grade and they’re just so sweet together. And I’m so grateful I’m going to have a son-in-law. I can’t believe it,” she said at the time, via Us Weekly. “He asked my permission. And then he had me help him through the process of picking the ring. And he was so cute, including me. I went with him to many different places to look, and it was just so sweet that he included me in that whole process.”

    Back in February, Kyle revealed her status with Mauricio.

    “We still have not filed for divorce or anything but … we have had more conversations about, ‘What should we do, should I still live where I’m living, should we sell the house and each go buy two new homes, or do we keep the house because it is such a special property and just each go our different ways,’” she explained on RHOBH After Show. “We’re discussing those things now, which we did not before.”

  • Gretchen Rossi Says RHOC Cast Warned Her About Katie Ginella, Slams Her “Horrific Stories,” and Calls Out Fake Behavior, Plus Reflects on Shading Shannon Beador’s DUI, and Responds to Tamra Judge’s Compassion Claims

    [ad_1]

    Gretchen Rossi appeared on Heather McDonald‘s podcast on Tuesday, where she reflected on The Real Housewives of Orange County cast’s warnings about Katie Ginella.

    As she also denied that she and her castmates were ganging up on Katie, 41, and accused Katie of using the press to spin lies about them, Gretchen, 46, reflected on her shady comment about Shannon Beador‘s DUI and clapped back at Tamra Judge‘s suggestion that she hasn’t gotten enough compassion on the show.

    “They were all telling me, ‘Gretchen, you need to be careful. This is what she does.’ And I didn’t want to believe it,” Gretchen revealed on the August 26 episode of Juicy Scoop.

    After starting off the season as Katie’s friend, Gretchen began to notice a pattern.

    “Every time we’re turning around, there’s some new blogger,” she explained. “Even the thing that happened with Tamra. That blogger came out and said, ‘Katie is straight-up lying. This did happen. She did call me.’”

    Although fans have accused the RHOC cast of ganging up on Katie, Gretchen insisted that was not the case, signaling Katie’s own antics against the cast.

    “The audience thinks we’re all just ganging up on Katie and going against Katie, but she has strategically done this to each and every cast member, and she’s out spinning these really horrific stories about each cast member and she’s done it to every single one of us, [Gina Kirschenheiter], [Emily Simpson], [Heather Dubrow], Tamra, Shannon, now me,” she shared. “I’m just like, why the heck? Why is she doing this?”

    After admitting that her comment about Shannon’s DUI being illegal amid Shannon’s argument that it was illegal for Katie to secretly record her “wasn’t a great thing to say” since she loves Shannon, 61, Gretchen pointed out that the moment was “real” and “authentic.”

    She then suggested that other women on the show aren’t as genuine.

    “It’s hard when you’re filming with people that are just like, ‘Oh I just gotta give this whole thing,’ and it’s like they’re wiling to say and do anything for this moment, and it’s like, I think we can actually have a lot of moments without trying to have this moment or make sh*t up about people or wreck their life,” Gretchen suggested. “For me, you’re taking it too far.”

    Moving on to Tamra’s recent suggestion that the cast didn’t give her compassion amid Teddi Mellencamp‘s cancer diagnosis, Gretchen shot down the idea.

    “I don’t think anybody didn’t have compassion for what Tamra, and I hate to even say what Tamra was going through because it’s what Teddi’s going through,” she clarified. “Tamra happens to be a good friend of Teddi’s, and I understand that it can affect her, but I’m sorry, when [my late fiancé Jeff Beitzel] was going through cancer, I wasn’t an a**hole. When [my current fiancé Slade Smiley‘s] son died, he wasn’t an a**hole. It doesn’t give you free rein to still be an a**hole and be a bad person.”

    According to Gretchen, the issue that people have with Tamra and her comments about Teddi was that her castmate always seemed to have an excuse for her behavior.

    “It’s like, ‘Oh, I was horrible to Shannon because I’m on the spectrum.’ ‘Oh, I was treating you that way cuz I was in a bad marriage with Simon.’ She always has an excuse,” Gretchen explained.

    The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

  • RHOC’s Tamra Judge Agrees With Emily Simpson’s Claim That She’s Different Off-Camera & Shares How, Plus Discusses Forgiving Katie Ginella

    [ad_1]

    Credit: Instagram

    Tamra Judge has been a significant topic of discussion on season 19 of The Real Housewives of Orange CountyNow, she’s responding to a recent comment from Emily Simpson and explaining where she finds the courage to go head-to-head with her cast members and how this differs from her real life.

    Emily, 49, was recently in an interview, and the topic of Tamra, 58, came up. She stated that Tamra was much calmer and quieter in real life, which is a stark contrast to what fans see of her on RHOC.

    This prompted Tamra to respond on the August 31 episode of the Two Ts in a Pod podcast. Luckily, By Wig Hello Drama on X posted the clip. Tamra began, “You know, I heard on an interview recently… I think it might have been Emily, where she says, ‘You know, the thing with Tamra is like off camera she’s so quiet. She doesn’t really go out much. She’s so reserved.’ But on camera, I’m a different person.”

    “I think that’s true, but I think there’s an alcohol component when I film that gets me heightened and gets me to the level that I’m at and gives me the courage to call people out,” Tamra continued. “Where in my normal, everyday life, I would never do that.”

    Teddi Mellencamp, 44, then chimed in, “Where in my normal, everyday life, I would.” Tamra added, “Oh, you call people out that don’t even need to be called out.” They also agreed that Teddi was “calmer” on camera when she was on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She went on to say that RHOBH was her first experience with reality television, and that she didn’t really know anyone when she started.

    Tamra also defended her time on the show by stating that Teddi was going through personal issues while she was on the show, which prevented her from being the force that she could have been. 

    In other Tamra news, a fan recently asked how she was able to forgive Katie Ginella for the lies she had been caught in.

  • RHOC’s Tamra Judge Discusses Why She Felt “Really Hurt” by Gina and Emily, Reveals Text to Heather After Fight, and What Emily Told Her Amid Filming

    [ad_1]

    Tamra Judge took aim at Emily Simpson and Gina Kirschenheiter while appearing on Lala Kent‘s podcast on Wednesday.

    In addition to looking back on her heated spat with Heather Dubrow, 56, admitting to intense struggles amid Teddi Mellencamp‘s brain cancer diagnosis, and revealing that she actually quit The Real Housewives of Orange County three times amid season 19, Tamra, 57, explained the moments leading up to her first “exit” and lashed out at Emily, 49, and Gina, 41, for talking behind her back.

    “This season, I’m really hurt by Gina and Emily because I truly thought that they were my friends,” Tamra began on the August 20 episode of Give Them Lala after being asked which castmates were most guilty of talking behind her back.

    “To hear them say the things they’ve said, knowing what I’m going through at the time, I mean, Emily even said to me, ‘Geez, if this was happening to my best friend, Gina, I don’t know how I would be able to film this show.’ But knowing that, and still coming for me and saying things, to me it’s just hurtful, and it makes me think they really don’t care about me or they’re really more interested in making good TV,” Tamra explained. 

    While Heather also lashed out at Tamra’s behavior amid their girls’ trip to New Orleans, Tamra said she “[understood]” since she “wasn’t very nice to her,” and she revealed that she texted her afterward.

    “I’m like, ‘I’m so sorry you don’t deserve that,’” Tamra recalled. “She does [call me on my sh*t]. But I love Heather. Heather comes from a place of kindness. Me and Heather have had arguments, but we always have resolution, and I care about her, and I care about her family, and she cares about my family … she’s just a very kind person, but we’re also filming a show together, and if I do something that’s out of line, I expect Heather to call me out like I do for anybody else.”

    Before traveling to New Orleans, Tamra learned of Teddi’s diagnosis, which sent her into a bit of a tailspin.

    “What people don’t understand [is] Teddi is one of my good friends, but also she’s my business partner, and we built this amazing podcast together,” she explained. “Five days a week, we’re talking, we’re chatting, we’re on the phone, we’re on Zoom. And now this is happening, two weeks into filming, she got diagnosed, and we had just been in New Orleans. We come back and I have to hold the podcast down on my own, bring in a co-host, I’m doing this five days a week … I would do that in the morning, go film, come home, watch the show, sometimes I have to do two podcasts in a day, depending on how busy the Bravo schedule is with housewives, and then do it all over again.”

    Amid her heartache, which was paired with her hectic schedule, Tamra said she “wasn’t eating” and “wasn’t sleeping.” On top of that, she shared, “I was taking Xanax.”

    “It was not a good time in my life. I won’t even watch last week’s episode … because I don’t want to relive it,” she confessed.

    Although some have suggested that Tamra shouldn’t have been filming if she was in such a dark place, she shared with Lala that she had already started the season when she learned of Teddi’s brain cancer.

    “I didn’t really have much of a choice,” she stated. “I was already in it.”

    Following her first “exit” from RHOC, Tamra said quitting became a knee-jerk reaction to stress.

    “Every time I got very upset or emotional, my first instinct was to say, ‘I quit,’ and I probably did that three times this year,” she admitted.

    Also on the podcast, Tamra looked back on the night she decided to leave New Orleans.

    “I took Xanax that night before we went to dinner, not thinking about the two drinks I had with [Shannon Beador]. I don’t remember that scene. I don’t remember going to [Shanon’s] hotel room, and when I saw that, I’m like, oh my God, it’s yellow, it’s champagne,” she recalled.

    Season 18 of The Real Housewives of Orange County is nearing its end, and the ladies recently filmed their reunion. Still, the drama is continuing as Tamra Judge recently discussed where she stands with Shannon Beador and even expressed interest in repairing their friendship. Sadly, it’s a different story when it comes to Vicki Gunvalson. 

    As fans know, this hasn’t been a good season of RHOC for Tamra and Shannon’s friendship. Instead of supporting her during this difficult time, Tamra took every chance she got to call out Shannon in front of their co-stars for drinking. This is despite Shannon taking accountability and even completing the legal requirements associated with her DUI ahead of schedule.

    Tamra implied that Shannon’s issues with alcohol are even worse than anyone knows. Things also haven’t been great with Vicki despite the fact that the “OG of the OC” only appears in a few episodes this season. 

    Recently, Tamra and Teddi Mellencamp were interviewed by PEOPLE ahead of their live podcast show. Much of the conversation centered around RHOC and mending relationships.

    When asked about her status with Shannon, Tamra said, “Shannon’s been close to me for a long time. I can’t really give anything away. I think everybody’s just going to be a little bit surprised.”

    The interviewer then asked Teddi if she would support a reconciliation between Tamra and Shannon. She replied, “Whatever Tamra feels like is best for her. I support her.”

    She then said, “We all” get into friendships with extreme highs and lows. She added, “Especially when you add in a television show [and] when you add in financials and working together and all these different things, I would say when it came down to it, I’d be more pleased if she made up with Shannon than Vicki [Gunvalson].”

    Tamra then admitted that fixing her issues with Vicki was “never happening.” She also said she’ll “fight hard” to fix problems when “I really care for somebody.”

    Regarding Shannon, she said, “I love hard, and then I will fight hard. It was a hurtful situation for me as well.”

    Tamra also discussed the reunion, especially the aspects involving Alexis Bellino. She said, “That was the most explosive part of the reunion. There was a lot of tough discussions that went down. There was a lot of emotions, there was a lot of explanation to why maybe I felt a certain way, and overall, I felt like it was one of the best reunions that I’ve done in a very long time.”

    RHOC Live Viewing – This is also the live viewing thread for tonight’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18, so feel free to comment and chat as the new season airs at 9/8c on Bravo.

    Tamra Judge Claims She Was Told Danielle Cabral Allegedly “Beat Up” Her Brother’s Wife, and This is Why She and Brother Are No Longer Speaking as Melissa Gorga Reacts

    Tamra Judge claimed she was told that Danielle Cabral allegedly “beat up” her brother’s wife, and this is the reason she’s no longer communicating with her brother. Danielle’s castmate Melissa Gorga then reacted.

    During season 13 of Real Housewives of New Jersey, Danielle spoke often about her estranged relationship with her brother, seemingly hinting that it was triggered when she blocked him on social media after he made fun of her. She also suggested that her sister-in-law was somehow involved.

    In the latest season, Danielle revealed that she also wasn’t speaking to her father based on how he handled Danielle’s drama with her brother. The situation confused many fans.

    Speaking on the Two Ts In A Pod podcast, host Teddi Mellencamp said the show spends too much time talking about Danielle’s drama with her brother and father – without sharing many details about what actually happened.

    “I could actually have rage. Like give me the freakin’ juice or don’t,” said Teddi.

    “Don’t talk about your dad if he’s not gonna be on the show,” added Tamra, Teddi’s co-host.

    Melissa eventually chimed in.

    “As far as her brother goes, I’m not gonna lie, I also had plenty of questions. I was confused,” recalled Melissa. “There’s two sides to every story, and then there’s the truth.”

    Tamra interjected to share an allegation.

    “I had somebody reach out to me and say, ‘I know why Danielle doesn’t talk to her brother,’” said Tamra. “And I didn’t respond to this person at all, and she went on to tell me that Danielle beat up her brother’s wife allegedly.”

    “Yeah, we heard that,” said Teddi.

    “What!?” Melissa responded. “This I have never heard … I promise you it’s a first. Look at Tamra, breaking – the first time I’ve ever ever heard anything like it.”

    Tamra clarified that she didn’t know if the allegation was true.

    The Real Housewives of New Jersey is currently on hiatus, and no one knows if it will return for another season. According to a report, the show will get a cast shakeup at the very least.

    Teddi Mellencamp’s Battle with Melanoma

    Mellencamp’s struggle with melanoma began with a routine skin check that revealed multiple areas of concern, leading to a stage 2 melanoma diagnosis. Over the past year and a half, she has undergone numerous surgeries, each time confronting the emotional toll of her diagnosis. In her candid posts on Instagram, she has expressed feelings of anxiety and sadness, particularly when discussing her health with her children. Despite these challenges, she maintains a hopeful outlook, emphasizing the importance of gratitude for her support system, including her family and medical team.

    Importance of Early Detection

    Melanoma, while less common than other skin cancers, is notably more aggressive and can spread rapidly if not detected early. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, early detection significantly increases the chances of successful treatment. Regular skin examinations are crucial, as they can lead to early intervention and potentially life-saving measures. Statistics indicate that melanoma accounts for approximately 1% of skin cancer cases but causes the majority of skin cancer deaths. Awareness of one’s skin and any changes is vital for early detection and treatment.

    Vicki Gunvalson Claims RHUGT Season 4 is “Not Gonna Air,” and Reveals Message From Head of Bravo, Plus She Slams Teddi Mellencamp as a “Dumb Bimbo”

    [ad_1]

    Vicki Gunvalson revealed an alleged message from the head of Bravo.

    According to Vicki, the Bravo honcho claimed the fourth season of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip – which Vicki declared is “not gonna air” – was “incredible.”

    She also shaded nemesis Teddi Mellencamp, calling her a “dumb bimbo” for suggesting she stormed the capitol on January 6. Meanwhile, Brandi Glanville said Teddi and her podcast co-host Tamra Judge are not “getting f**ked.”

    “We were good TV,” said Vicki of her time with Brandi on RHUGT in an interview for the Brandi Glanville Unfiltered podcast.

    “Even the head of Bravo herself like sent us a message saying this is like the best show ever,” responded Brandi.

    Vicki confirmed this, adding, “She said this show — even the one that’s not gonna air — she said it’s incredible.”

    In the same episode, Vicki said her enemy Teddi was trying to take her down.

    “Do you [really] think I stormed the capitol on January 6, you dumb bimbo?” she asked, addressing Teddi directly in a clip shared by @byewighellodrama, via @monicapippin on X. “That’s what she thought. She said it online. She said at BravoCon … She’s not a nice person.”

    Brandi then claimed that Teddi also tried to take her down.

    “No one likes her though,” Brandi added. “[She and Tamra] go so low.”

    Vicki added that Tamra and Teddi have to watch a lot of TV to recap the Bravo shows, and Vicki herself doesn’t watch TV.

    “Cause you’re getting f**ked,” said Brandi. “They’re not.”

  • ‘RHOBH’ Star Kyle Richards Talks BravoCon Health Scare, Teddi, & Claims of Not Being Honest

    ‘RHOBH’ Star Kyle Richards Talks BravoCon Health Scare, Teddi, & Claims of Not Being Honest

    [ad_1]

    Kyle Richards endured a secret health scare at BravoCon that she recently spoke about on Jeff Lewis‘ radio show.

    As the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member, 55, opened up about her friendship with Teddi Mellencamp, 42, shared what she wished viewers saw of Teddi, and reacted to allegations of not being honest on the show, Kyle also shaded her castmates and confirmed she’s in therapy amid her separation from Mauricio Umansky, 53.

    “They don’t show this on the show, and people don’t know this about my life, but I was going through a medical thing actually during BravoCon, where I was freaking out,” Kyle explained on the January 23 episode of SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live, noting that her friends, including Teddi, cared for her during this time.

    “These are the friends that take you to the doctor and hold your hand while you’re doing medical procedures,” she revealed.

    Although Teddi wasn’t exactly a fan favorite during her three-season stint on RHOBH, Kyle believes that’s only due to the fact that she was going through hard times in her life during filming.

    “I think she wasn’t actually herself when she first came on the show. She was going through a hard time personally. I think she was very guarded,” Kyle noted. “I always think, ‘I wish they saw this Teddi,’ because she’s extremely intelligent, she’s really funny. She’s an incredible friend.”

    Throughout the 13th season of RHOBH, Kyle has faced claims of not being honest. However, according to her, she’s exposed far more of her life than her castmates.

    “I’ve shared my life for 13 years on this show and some of the women will be like, ‘Kyle’s not being honest.’ No offense, but I’m watching people showing their dating coaches and the businesses they’re pushing,” she stated. “I’ve had… my marital issues, to rumors about my marriage to two siblings that have been cast members on the show to my family falling apart, my sexuality is being questioned. I’ve had everything across the board that you can name… I have given a lot on this show.”

    Also on Jeff’s show, Kyle confirmed she’s in therapy and leaning on her four daughters, Farrah Aldjufrie, 35, Alexia Umansky, 27, Sophia Umansky, 24, and Portia Umansky, 15, amid her and Mauricio’s split.

    “I never went to therapy before. I am in therapy now. But my friends were my therapists always… And now that my kids are older, they are also my rock,” she explained. “Growing up, I was too busy taking care of them when they were little. But now, they help me too. I share everything with them. Good, bad, the ugly.”

    The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

    Teddi Mellencamp just leaked a series of DMs Vicki Gunvalson sent to Tamra Judge.

    After Vicki, 61, and Tamra, 56, went head-to-head on social media over the weekend, following Tamra’s dramatic exit from their “Tres Amigas” show with Shannon Beador, 59, Teddi, 42, posted Vicki’s messages on X, formerly known as Twitter, after Vicki denied Teddi’s suggestion that she had called her “ugly and disgusting and a terrible human being,” which the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shared on her podcast.

    After Teddi said she’d been through hell with Vicki on Two Ts in a Pod, Vicki took to X, where she reacted to a clip of the comment.

    “All lies! I never said any of this about [Teddi]. She is invisible to me,” Vicki insisted.

    But moments later, Teddi came forward with receipts, via screenshots.

    “Just because you spell my name wrong doesn’t make it true. But since we’re in the era of RECEIPTS 👏 PROOF 👏TIMELINE 👏 SCREENSHOTS 👏 here ya go,” Teddi wrote, along with two screenshots.

    “Are you [f*cking] kidding me?! Shame on you,” Vicki said in a message to Tamra after seeing an Instagram Story captioned “Tres” that featured her, Teddi, and Emily Simpson, 47.

    “Shame [on] me for what?” Tamra asked in response.

    “You are not a good person!” Vicki replied. “We had the tres amigas show locked down with Paris and the gaul of you to say ‘uno dos tres’ … with the b*tch [Teddi] and now adding Emily?! You are truly a ‘traitor.’ Good luck.”

    “To say I talk about Eddie is 10 years ago is no different than you saying I lied about cancer!!!” Vicki continued. “You have talked crap about me for years and I thought we got over it and moved past it! You are so far up Teddi’s ugly a** it’s disgusting — everyone sees it.”

    Following the shade, Tamra sent another message to Vicki, along with a faceplant emoji, applauding Teddi as a good friend.

    “We use each other … That’s the biggest crock of sh*t. We are great friends and she is always there for me!” Tamra proclaimed.

    Around the same time, Tamra promoted her upcoming role in The Traitors season two.

    “You don’t want to miss this — three weeks out from [The Traitors] season two premiere. See you January 12th on [Peacock],” Tamra shared with her fans and followers.

    Quickly, Vicki weighed in.

    “Perfect show for you!!!!” she replied, as seen in a screenshot shared by Queens of Bravo on Instagram.

    RHOBH’s Kyle Richards Shares Real Reason for Sutton’s Meltdown at Magic Mike, Why She’s Taking a Break From Friendship

    [ad_1]

    Kyle Richards is speaking out about the “biggest sh*t stirrer” of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13: Sutton Stracke.

    After telling Teddi Mellencamp, 42, and Tamra Judge, 56, on a recent episode of their podcast that the honor went to “Sutton,” Kyle, 54, looked back on her over-the-top meltdown at the Magic Mike show in Las Vegas and explained why she decided to take a break from their friendship.

    On the November 4 episode of Two Ts in a Pod, Kyle reflected on the cast’s drama-filled trip to Sin City, saying that Sutton, 52, “was annoyed” with both her and Garcelle Beauvais, 56.

    “But, of course, she would only take it out on me,” Kyle noted, explaining that Sutton was initially excited to go to the Magic Mike performance.

    According to Kyle, Sutton’s meltdown had to do with jealousy that her costars got called up on stage during the performance while she wasn’t.

    “I don’t know why she got so offended. I have my theory. She was supposed to get up there originally. They asked us all in advance… I think she was expecting to cause she was told that and then she wasn’t,” Kyle suspected. “It was supposed to be [Crystal Kung Minkoff], [Erika Jayne], and Sutton… I don’t know why Sutton didn’t go up with them. They later said we were going to have you go up later… But then she said no it wasn’t that.”

    According to Kyle, Sutton seemed to be “offended by the whole thing,” which she found hypocritical considering Sutton “hired a stripper for Crystal’s birthday.”

    Although Kyle confirmed that Sutton reached out to her after her meltdown, adding that they “were fine after that,” she hasn’t liked what she’s seen from Sutton thus far on the show.

    “I started seeing the clips and I didn’t like the things I was hearing. So much focus about my marriage and my life… Like go try to meet somebody and worry about your own relationships,” Kyle advised of single Sutton. “Also she made a comment about Erika and her show in the press that didn’t sit well with me because I thought as a group… we’re all very supportive of each other’s endeavors. All of us show up for everybody’s things.”

    As RHOBH fans will recall, Sutton shaded Erika’s allegedly low ticket sales and said she was too “busy” to attend the shows following the debut of her residency in August.

    “It’s Garcelle’s movie, they’re always so supportive of my projects. Sutton’s store. We show up, we support her, I shop there, I buy things from there. She made some comment like putting down Erika and her show in Vegas. It was so mean-spirited. That I was like, ‘That is showing me a whole other side,’” Kyle said. “You don’t do that with someone’s livelihood. And that really, really bothered me and I was like, ‘That’s so mean. There’s no excuse for doing something like that’ … Between that and her comments about my marriage, I was like okay I need a little break.”

    At that point, Teddi mentioned that Erika recently accused Sutton of not being supportive of Kyle amid her marriage drama with Mauricio Umansky, 53, and Kyle seemed to agree.

    “I was the first one who bonded with her. I really liked her so that’s why it hurt me more,” she explained. “I do like her and we do have a genuine friendship. She’s fun and we do make each other laugh… So when she came at me about my marriage in this sort of like almost like I had done her wrong or something, I felt attacked and cornered about my marriage — and on camera by the way, instead of off-camera saying, ‘Are you okay?’”

    “I was thinking, ‘Why are they acting like they’re mad at me that I’m going through this hard time? Why are they waiting till the cameras are here to ask me about this?’” she added.

  • RHOBH’s Erika Jayne Shares Real Reason She Hasn’t Finalized Divorce From Tom Girardi, If She’s Open for Love, & If She’d Show Relationship on TV, Plus Kyle’s Marital Drama and Denise Feud

    RHOBH’s Erika Jayne Shares Real Reason She Hasn’t Finalized Divorce From Tom Girardi, If She’s Open for Love, & If She’d Show Relationship on TV, Plus Kyle’s Marital Drama and Denise Feud

    [ad_1]

    RHOBH's Erika Jayne shares why she hasn’t finalized divorce with Tom Girardi, reveals if she’s open for love.

    Erika Jayne shared why hasn’t finalized her divorce from Tom Girardi, revealed if she’s open for love, and claimed Denise Richards was “looking for a fight” on the latest season of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    In the season 13 trailer, Erika alleged that a “naked bundle” of Denise on OnlyFans was “only $7.” In response, Denise called her “evil.”

    Speaking with ET, Erika shared that her “heart will always be open” when it comes to love after her breakup with Tom.

    “You have to grieve a marriage and you grieve a lot of things. I had a complete change of life, not just a marriage, a sickness of a spouse, and then losing your home, and your money, and all at one time, so grieving that sort of stuff and working through the legal problems is a lot,” she said. “My heart will always be open. I don’t think I’ll choose to share my private life on camera. I think that I need one thing that’s mine. I just need one thing that’s mine.”

    When pressed to say whether she’d really never showcase her romantic life on RHOBH again, the pop star admitted, “Timing is everything. Let me recover. I’ve got a lot of bills to pay. I’ve got a lot of things to work out. When and if the time is right.”

    The star also shared that she’s currently dating: “My heart is not closed. I’m OK. I’m social, and I should be.”

    Erika then revealed why she hasn’t finalized her divorce with Tom: “In the order of all of the problems I’m facing, it’s probably the absolute last thing … I just don’t think about it. The day I filed for divorce and we were legally separated, that was it for me. We are in very different places. I have a lot to clean up and pick up and move on.”

    She continued, “We all have to do it our own way. Nobody’s gonna look out for you but yourself … Even after a two-decade-plus marriage, that’s what it came down to, looking out for yourself.”

    Regarding Kyle Richard’s marriage difficulties, Erika shared, “I am Kyle’s friend, and I am going to support her through this separation and whatever they choose to do … I’m a friend, I’m a supporter, whatever she wants to share with me that’s her right to do so. I’m not in this marriage and I don’t like it when other people pry. You don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. Let them work it out.”

    “Everyone has an opinion and we’re there to get her opinion,” she added. “My opinion is, I’m Kyle’s friend, they are married, and she will let me know what’s happening when she’s ready to. It’s my job as a friend to support her in whatever she chooses to do.”

    Erika then addressed the introduction of newbie castmate Annemarie Wiley. “She is not to be toyed with. I like her. She’s very direct. She’s sweet, but she’s firm,” said Erika. “She was very vocal. It took her half a second [to find her footing on the show].”

    She then teased her upcoming fight with Denise Richards, which “stunned” Erika, who was “so confused as to what [was] happening.”

    “[Denise] was there looking for a fight, so I gave it to her,” said Erika. “That’s not something I want to do. Here’s the thing, if you’re going to push, you need to be ready to get pushed back on, and so that’s all I did.”

    In an interview with Us Weekly, Erika claimed she called Teddi Mellencamp – who seemed to lead the charge against Denise amid Brandi Glanville‘s allegation that she and Denise had sex – to better understand why Denise was still upset with her.

    “I said, ‘Teddi, what is this about?’ Because Denise’s anger should not be directed toward me,” said Erika. “Denise’s anger should be directed at Brandi Glanville, Lisa Rinna, and Teddi Mellencamp, not Erika. I just happened to be the only one [there].”

    The star claimed Denise was “saying all these things,” and Erika “apologized” at the time because she “couldn’t remember” what had happened in the past.

    “Then [Denise] wanted to continue that on Taco Tuesday at Crystal [Kung Minkoff’s],” Erika added. “And that’s when you see me say, I had to be [like], ‘Look, I did not want any part of this,’ but she wanted that. So I gave it to her at the end.”

    Kyle Richards attended a Morgan Wade concert over the weekend with her sister, Kathy Hilton, and two of her daughters.

    Amid swirling rumors in regard to their alleged romance, Kyle, 54, supported Morgan at her show after running a marathon with the 28-year-old country singer and her longtime friend and former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-star, Teddi Mellencamp, 42, in Malibu. Kyle also stepped out with Morgan in Los Angeles.

    “Kyle Richards and her rumored girlfriend, Morgan Wade, enjoyed a relaxing day in Los Angeles on Friday. Kyle was all smiles as she strolled down the street showing her pearly white teeth,” the Real Housewives Zone on Instagram shared with their fans and followers on October 21.

    “Kyle looked thrilled as she walked confidently along sporting a pair of colorful sneakers and was spotted toting around a fleece backpack. To shield her eyes from the sun, she opted for a pair of [oversized] black aviators with gold details as she chatted away to Morgan,” they continued. “For their daytime outing, Richards left her silky brunette tresses down in a sleek and straight hairstyle and appeared to have opted for a makeup-free look. She accessorized with a dainty watch and gold bracelet as well as several delicate rings but left her ring finger bare.”

    After Kyle and Morgan were spotted enjoying time together in Los Angeles, the two of them turned up with Teddi at a marathon in Malibu, where they posed for a selfie that Kyle ultimately shared on her Instagram Story.

    “My first 10k 6.8 miles … Benefiting [Malibu Search and Rescue],” Kyle captioned the pic, tagging both Morgan and Teddi.

    Also on Kyle’s Instagram Story over the weekend, she shared a group photo with her sister Kathy, 64, months after the two of them settled their drama following a months-long feud prompted by Lisa Rinna‘s claims regarding the threats Kathy allegedly made against Kyle’s family amid a meltdown in Aspen.

    “Had the best time with my sister [Kathy Hilton and Alexia Umansky, Sophia Umansky, Jake Zingerman, Jenn Leipart, and Jana Mars Levy] at the [Morgan Wade] concert,” Kyle wrote with the pic, which also included two of the daughters she shares with estranged husband Mauricio Umansky, 53.

    As RHOBH fans may have seen, Kyle confirmed her separation from Mauricio earlier this month while at an airport in L.A.

    Around the same time, Mauricio told TMZ, “We are not talking about divorce. We’re trying to deal with this stuff internally with ourselves privately.”

    Teddi Mellencamp explained why Kyle Richards tattooed the first letter of her name on rumored girlfriend Morgan Wade on a recent episode of her podcast.

    Following the release of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 trailer, which saw Kyle, 54, tattooing Morgan, 28, amid reports of a romance between them, and amid her separation from Mauricio Umansky, 53, Teddi, 42, reacted to the shocking moment and shared why she doesn’t believe the symbol is that big of a deal.

    On the October 11 episode of Two Ts In A Pod, via Heavy, Teddi revealed she actually spoke with Kyle on the day she did the tattoo. And, during the conversation, Kyle told her that she and the country singer thought her “K” tattoo was “so funny.”

    “The reason they put a ‘K’ is – the reason Kyle put a ‘K’ was because then she could add anything else she wanted to it. They thought it would be a funny joke,” Teddi shared. “But then, of course, it now has metamorphosed into so much more.”

    As for why Teddi wasn’t super impacted by the ink, she told listeners that Morgan’s “K,” which is located on her arm, is one of many.

    “[She is not] super picky about the tattoos she’s putting on her body,” Teddi noted. “If a letter ‘K’ was tattooed onto my body, it might be more of a red flag than somebody that probably has, I don’t know, over 100 tattoos.”

    In addition to toting a “K” in Kyle’s honor, Morgan also has a matching heart tattoo with the RHOBH cast member. However, while out with Teddi over the summer, Kyle defended their identical ink, telling Page Six that Morgan isn’t the only one she has matching tattoos with.

    “[Teddi and I] have matching tattoos, too, she’s not the only one,” Kyle stated of Morgan.

    Although Kyle continues to spend time with Morgan, recently enjoying what was described as a “very intimate” date at a cafe in Paris, she has denied that the two of them are dating.

    Mauricio has also addressed the swirling reports about his estranged wife and Morgan, telling Extra TV earlier this month that he doesn’t believe Kyle is cheating on him with the musician.

    “I don’t believe there was any affairs or anything like that, so I don’t believe that at all. I don’t believe that, yeah, period, end of story,” he stated.

    As for the RHOBH trailer, Mauricio told E! News he felt certain events were “dramatized.”

    “I don’t want to watch it because the reality is Kyle and I know where we stand today,” he explained. “We know where we are and it’s been super dramatized and I know that. It has to be in order to be entertaining and capture people’s attention for television.”
