BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE

Rumors and nastiness have arisen again regarding Andy Cohen’s future at Bravo. Sources are talking, yet again, and saying that a major announcement regarding Andy’s future at the network is coming next month and that he will be stepping down. Not so fast. We break down why Andy would ever step down - there are only three situations we can think of - what “stepping down” actually means in this situation, the likeliness these rumors are true, how, if at all, this would affect Real Housewives and / or Watch What Happens Live and oh, so very much more. In other news, Tamra Judge is accused of being the new Teresa Giudice and working with Bloggers and Podcasts to spin negative news about her cast mate enemies, and their spouses, while painting herself in a positive light angering RHOC producers over both true and fake Season 19 leaks. Finally, RHOP Season 10 is delayed as producers scramble for storylines now that The Grand Dame is in jail and Mia Thornton has seemingly “quit” and revisit old cast members in hopes of brining one back. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

There has been so much push back regarding Teddi Mellencamp’s recent activities about exactly what she should and should not be doing in light of her serious health diagnosis. Today, with the help of Empathic Medium Raquel, we break down the current state of Teddi’s health, discuss why people feel the need to weigh in and last, but certainly not least, analyze her supposed support system around her - Edwin, Kyle and Tamra - scrutinizing whether each of the aforementioned has her best interests, at all times, at heart. Speaking of Tamra, we discuss all that she is going through in light of her recent RHOC walk out, Andy Cohen’s involvement in her RHOC future, her current relationships with both Shannon and Gretchen, the likelihood of many reconciliations with RHOC cast past and present and her ultimate return to the show as an orange holder for Season 19. Finally, we discuss Kyle’s inevitable divorce from Mauricio, girlfriend Morgan and what we can expect as this season of RHOBH prepares to conclude and head into one explosive, epic, three part reunion. @psychicsource @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) SPOT & TANGO - spotandtango.com/velvetrope (Use Code Velvetrope To Get 50% Off Your First Order of UnKibble For Your Dog) CORNBREAD - cornbreadhemp.com/velvet (30% Off With Code Velvet on Cornbread’s Gummies) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging) JUNE’S JOURNEY (Download This Hidden Object Interactive Mobile Game Now on Android or iOS) AIR DOCTOR - airdoctorpro.com (Use Code Velvet For Up To $300 Off Today The Best Air Purifier Voted By Newsweek) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

We discuss how Karen got here, what she has or has not learned, so far, from this conviction and sentencing, what she will learn in jail and whether Bravo will welcome her with open arms or turn their back on her once she is done with her sentence two long years from now. Sutton Stracke doubles down on her fat wallet comment to Dorit. Erika Jayne continues to doll out sage advice. Mia Thornton continues her half truths even post reunion.

Karen Huger has been sentenced to two years, one of which she will serve in jail, in her DUI case. After the sentence and calling out to Ray in the courtroom, she was immediately taken to Montgomery County Jail. Psychic Robbin stops by today to shed light on what Karen is going through behind bars emotionally, mentally and physically as she adjusts to her new digs, cellmates, work life, surroundings and reality for, at the very least, next year of her life. With no alcohol, 5 star accommodations or RHOP castmates to rely on, Robbin lets us know how Karen is doing, how Gizelle Bryant is holding up and if it is likely she will return to RHOP when her sentence is over. In other news, Robbin talks whether Melissa or Teresa will return to RHONJ when the show returns in a year or two, what each is going through personally and financially without the show and whether it is likely either will be back on Bravo in a spin off series about their lives and family. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: STRAWBERRY - Strawberry.me/VELVET (Get 20% Off Your First Month & Take Charge Of Your Future With The Help Of a Certified Coach) CARAWAY HOME - Carawayhome.com/VELVET (10% Off Non-Toxic Cookware Made Modern) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) MEANINGFUL BEAUTY - meaningfulbeauty.com/velvet (Get 25% Off Cindy Crawford’s Beauty Line & The Targeted Treatment Duo GIFT SET for FREE) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Rumors have surfaced that a huge, and we mean huge, Bravo announcement is coming any day now. We break down what that announcement is likely to be, the fact that it may involve RHONJ, a new housewife franchise or the changing of many “big named well known” guards behind, or in front of, the iron curtain. Speaking of RHONJ, Teresa Giudice reveals details of her recent phone call from Bravo Producers. Our very own Dolores, Ciara and Sandoval hang in there on The Traitors as we bid farewell to the icon that is Boston Rob and explain who is going to win this game! Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin announce their very own new pod, revisit Aspen with Kathy Hilton, shade LVP and respond to Bethenny’s claim that Harry’s sauce sucks. Last, but certainly not least, Kyle Richards breaks the BFF code and reveals new tea about Teddi, shares details on their living situation and what we can expect the rest of this RHOBH season. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Ana Ortiz steps Behind The Rope. Ana is here to chat about the full anthology of her career and, as we like to say, mention it all. Ana talks Ugly Betty, Devious Maids, Love,Victor, costars like Susan Lucci and America Ferrera, reboots and more. Ana also talks deep dives like Whiskey Cavalier and Kristin and current project Goodbumps: The Vanishing based on the classic books by R.L. Stine. Of course, being a huge Bravo fan herself, the convo quickly turns to her recent WWHL appearance, Andy Cohen, the downfall of Brynn Whitfield, the end of Kyle and Dorit and the call she may or may not have received about joining RHOBH. @therealanaortiz @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Get the Rakuten App NOW and Join the 17 Million Members Who Are Already Saving!
