And Porsha and her mum moaning about how she didn't get the allowance that Kordell promised her... You married for money and you got everything that you deserved! Although I do think that Kordell was out of line in how he handled the divorce
Maybe I misinterpreted thing but they weren't 'moaning' about her not getting the promised allowance. They were talking about how he would not give her money (while as we saw last season at the same time not wanting her to work) as a means of control.

That he was happy to play the image of having a wife who had everything and was promised the world but who in reality wasn't given anything that would provide her with any independence... ie a bit of cash.

I mean they weren't moaning she couldn't afford a Hermes bag, they were saying that a wife of millionaire used to have to ask her not particularly rich in comparison mother for a few hundred dollars cash. That's pretty twisted.

Damn! Apparently Adriana threatens to call Yolanda Foster on the Miami reunion to prove Joanna is a homewrecker and the one that ruined her marriage. Yikes!

There's a video which we can't watch from the UK.

Is it wrong that Id LOVE to see that happen?! I think it be fab if Adriana got Yolanda on the phone and she totally called Joanna out.

Really looking forward to the Miami reunion- I think its going to be a good, old fashioned drama filled bitch-fest!

I agree that Kordell was very controlling and him leaving Porsha with no money to spend was wrong, what got me last night though was Porsha's mum saying "he promised that WE were going to go to New York shopping" as if she had sold her daughter off to the man who made her the best promises.

I have to say that while Kordell has acted wrong through the marriage and the divorce Porsha lost a lot of sympathy from me last week... Her saying that she wanted to make the marriage work if Kordell went to individual & couples counselling and then bringing up the gay stuff when he said no, followed by her rant about him needing counselling for his demons. It all sounded suspiciously like she thought he could be "cured" of being gay.

Even if that wasn't what she was saying why did she want to try to stay married to a man who was so controlling and left her with no money and who she thinks might be gay.

My view on it might have been slightly skewed by Peter tweeting about how fake Porsha is everytime she came on screen during the premiere though

To be honest I didn't get that either.

When they were talking last week it struck me that it was far deeper and complected. I don't think anyone knows who or what Kordell is... gay or straight... even Kordell. The way they spoke seemed to suggest he had severe intimacy issues (and it wasn't just about sex) which may or may not be connected to the gay rumours that have plagued him for years.

What Porsha seemed to be saying was she doesn't know and she doesn't think Kordell knows and the 'counseling for his demons' was about the perceived intimacy issues and where they come from... which may well indeed be because he's gay but then again maybe not. At no point did I get the feeling she suggested 'sexuality' was the demon, the demons were the intimacy issues that lead a man to only visit his wife once in hospital after her miscarriage.

Yes, Yolanda's first husband Mohamed - the one who she has her children with. He's appeared on Beverly Hills quite a bit. Appearing in last weeks premiere, hosting a lavish engagement party at his mansion for Lisa's daughter etc.

He apparently spotted her whilst out driving one day years ago, asked for her number and they engaged in an affair which lasted about a month. Yolanda caught them in the act and their marriage ended.

Mohamed asked Joe Francis (who appeared in Miami last season, had a fling with Joanna's sister Marta), to take her off his hands - she then went on to star in a Girls Gone Wild thing.

According to recent reports, Lisa Vanderpump is now ''friendless'' amongst her Beverly Hills cast. She was recently papped out and about with Joanna Krupa in LA - with some saying this was her way of getting at Yolanda!!

Managed to spill a full mug of boiling coffee all over my laptop ( which isn't covered by the warranty ) I have SO much to catch up with.
Is anyone watching Vanderpump Rules or is it as crap as the first series? Also have I missed anything in the last week apart from Miami and Beverley Hills?

I now have a pristine new laptop to get them on, well away from hot coffee!!

Do not click on that until you have seen the first part of the Miami Housewives reunion But wow that was intense! I found it odd that they showed the backstage parts but I guess the way they ended it with Lisa being so angry, she is not going to hold back on Thursday. Its sad but it does feel like this is the end of RHOM, Lea and Adriana are not speaking and so are Joanna and Lisa and Alexia . . . is there too lol

I'm watching Vanderpump Rules Tally and they still are the most horrible and dumb cast on reality tv, so not much change from the first series tbh

That was the most exciting reunion of a Housewives show in a very long time All of it had me hooked from start to finish. I found Joanna a very bitter person and after that reunion I'm no fan of hers anymore she hit below the belt with her comments about Lisa not getting pregnant and just being so catty.

I loved the behind the scenes stuff and who the hell was that make up artist guy slagging of Lisa? He was such a ****, did production remove him in the end ? My link kept freezing at that point.

But after this i Really hope Miami comes back for another season it would be so explosive next season but i think this HW is done Hopefully Andy can pull some strings and get us another season.

Isn't this all according to Joe Francis, though? The man isn't exactly known for his morals or telling the truth. I suppose if it was a housewife I didn't like I'd believe it too though!

Really enjoyed Beverly Hills last night. No-one was really that bitchy last night apart from Kim and Kyle at the end. I am disliking Kyle more and more as the seasons go on. Was lovely to see Taylor briefly last night. Was nice to get to know Carlton a little more. I liked her a little more from the first episode. Still don't feel like I know Joyce though, maybe next week. Also hope things heat up a little more.

Really? The dinner party at Lisa's wasn't bitchy? Kyle & Kim were clearly joking around and making fun of a situation that everyone already knew to be the case. Thank god they did, it was the only light relief entertainment on the episode. - plus it was more Kim than Kyle. I'm loving Kim even more this season, as I am Kyle too. (Wow. Never thought I'd say that after season 1 + 2)

I'm really struggling as to why Carlton joined a show full of people when she clearly doesn't like other people at all.

I pretty much zoned out of Miami this season after about 3 episodes. I just couldn't invest in any of them to keep watching and I found the ''Adriana is a BIG FAT LIAR'' storyline to be quite repetitive.

But that reunion was hilariously entertaining. I actually found it easy to follow despite not having watched the season in full. I also sense the backstage footage was perhaps a tester for the other franchises to see how well it worked - hopefully this be introduced to the others. I always get the feeling most of the drama at these reunions happens backstage so I'm glad we got to see that.

As for Beverly Hills - just a few points. I find Yolanda to be quite tiresome when she's not with the other housewives. I have no interest in her whatsoever. Kim, I'm happy she's moved on but I find it uneasy to watch her with that dog - she just can't handle it. I think Carlton is a great addition to the show. She's clearly never seen this show before and it's her cluelessness that's providing the entertainment for me. She does seem like a weird one though - on one hand she seems so prudish and conservative but on the other she's swearing in front of her children like a trucker! Joyce - seems nice but we still don't know much about her. Brandi - great that she's so honest about her modest lifestyle (in comparison). A few other housewives could benefit from that trait. Then Lisa... that faint... if you compare it to the infamous Gillian McKeith 'faint' then it looked really authentic.... I just don't know!

That Miami reunion was ridiculously entertaining. The best reunion since last years Atlanta reunion.

Can't help but love Kenya, even though I know she's vile!
I think Porcsha is far too aware of cameras, and seems to be doing these weird, dramatic speeches out of the blue, like what she did when Phaedra and Kenya were confronting each other and she managed to wedge her divorce in to that.

tally, lovely to have you back! Enjoy your catch up. Basically, Atlanta is as fabulous as ever Its still the best by a country mile. Kenya is fabulously crazy and I love watching her.

Beverly Hills is good. I'm not totally feeling it yet. But it looks like a good season to come. Cant decide on the new women yet. I'm desperate for Kyle and Joyce to get into it, Kyle must hate her with that hair . I agree BumbleSquat on Carlton, she seems quite clueless as to the show and I do find it hilarious she seems to have joined a show where she has NO interest in the other women at all. She wasn't happy about Kyle killing that bee at all was she?! I think she's one to watch. Still cant stand Kyle- I get her purpose on the show, but she's just an irritant! But ill admit, the show would probably lack something without her. As for those cheating rumours....who would blame Mauricio?! I see Kyle has a new "friend" this season to replace Faye Ratchet. At least this one doesn't look like a science experiment gone wrong.
Kim, Ooh Kim. Look, I think she looks good this season and Im pleased that she seems in a better place. But I just don't think the show is right for her, I worry that being on the show will drive her back down a dark path. I really hope not though. I worry for her with that dog though
Brandi I still enjoy her. And I find her honesty totally refreshing with regards to her money and lifestyle. Certainly a few housewives that could take note! Lisa, I still love her. Im not totally sold on that faint though......but hey it gives Kyle something to bitch about so she will be thrilled. Yolanda I still really like, she's gone through a lot, and ok, she's maybe not as crazy as the others, but I like watching her. I still don't like her hubby at all though.
Oh and Taylor was in this week, but it wasn't for long so that was good. Thank God old duck lips is off this show! I certainly don't miss her.

the Miami reunion was fabulously entertaining! The best reunion I've seen in ages. Those ladies went in HARD! It was a total bitch-fest and exactly what I thought it would be! Joanna is vile. I've never liked the girl and now I really don't. What an utter bitch. Those low blows at Lisa regarding her fertility were seriously shady. I love it when Adriana loses it. I find her hilarious to watch! I loved all the pre reunion and backstage clips as well, they should make that part of all reunions. Its a real shame if this is the last we see of Miami, after that reunion Season 4 would be pretty interesting!
Cant wait for Part 2!

Im liking Beverly Hills but anyone else bored of Kim? Im all for her being happy and all but i just find her on the show pointless and boring she brings nothing no more I don't know why Bravo gave her a full time role when she clearly should of been demoted, Kyle is a moaner and annoys me, seems like people on the blogs are getting tiered of her to Its shame cause i did like Kyle but gone of her lately.


Carlton I much preferred her this episode i find her quite hilarious I also enjoyed seeing Taylor was good to see her happy and settled

I think there's a few reasons Kims still there. She's light-hearted fun, she's the underdog with a real comeback story, she gets into the drama this season apparently & also, isn't it in Kyles contract? lol.

Which blogs? I don't use many other than allabouttrh. Radar Online & Stoopidhousewives are just full of hateful posters that rarely have a good word to say about anyone, it's far too negative for my liking. People on the Bravo blogs seemed to be getting behind Kyle this week, as on allabouttrh, because she finally is standing up to Lisa and not booty kissing her to be friends. Kyle lost support because she stopped being a bitch, oddly enough..


I agree with everyone that's loving Kenya, she's crazy as hell but so watchable. I felt bad for Kandi when Mama Joyce dissed her ring, that was low - I think there's something odd about Todd not willing to sign a prenup but that woman's in it for herself, not Kandi. I agree about Porsha being camera-aware with her speeches, I'm getting a bit tired of her already when I actually liked her last season.


The only Miami housewive I like after this season is Alexia, she seems the only normal one with a good head on her. Adriana lost me with the wedding bs but I kinda like her a little, she's crazy when she goes off on one. Joanna is irritating, Leah is a phoney and Lisa tries way too hard to get attention and it's embarrassing. Seriously though, did anyone else LOL at Lisa's 'I used to be an actress and model' - doesn't everyone who doesn't/hasn't had a proper job say that?

When Todd and Kandi discussed it last season (5x19) he said he would sign one as long as his contribution to the household was taken into consideration... Which is fair enough.

I'm reserving judgement on him telling Mama Joyce he won't sign anything until I've seen the full scene as Bravo like to edit the trailer to make things seem like something they're not.

I wouldn't be surprised if the actual conversations is Todd saying "I'm not signing anything... Until me and my fiancée sit down and discuss it between ourselves without the interference of her mother." Or words to that effect. I may be proven wrong though

I just wanted to say that I am really enjoying Series 2 of NJ being shown on the "Lifetime" channel (formerly Bio). I joined NJ at Series 3 and did not see Tre at her best. Having now seen from Series 1 onwards I can see why she has admirers and I love the way she is coming across in Series 2. She has just given birth to her 4th daughter,and glamour all the way ("I do not give birth to tomboys" ). What I also like is the apparently genuine warm friendship between Tre and Caroline. What a shame that changed.

My other observations
Poor deluded Danielle
Ashley being a brat (so not everything has changed).

Can I just say what an ugly disgusting prick Joannas makeup artist is. What an asshole. First of all you don't speak to a woman like that second of all stay out of the drama you little famewhore.

Other than that, the reunion was pretty shocking. I loved the backstage thing though.
