Kyle Richards has just received the Reality Star of The Year in US Weekly’s annual poll. We break down all that Kyle has had to endure and achieve this year both on air and off to receive this award - breakup from Mauricio, sister who has relapsed, fallout and reconciliation with her other sister, same sex relationship with a county superstar and so very much more. Speaking of the country superstar and sisters, we share updates on Kyle’s relationships with Morgan Wade, Kathy, Kim and the rest of the RHOBH cast as we prepare to head into Season 14 premiering later this year. These stellar seasons of RHOP, RHOSLC and RHOC continue on as Karen Huger’s DUI seems to be addressed and dealt with much differently than Shannon Beador's, newbie Stacey Rusch continues to make her mark, Gizelle remains conflicted between good friend and reasonably shady, Mia Thornton moves into a reality tv position of power and last, but certainly not least, Mary Cosby addresses her son’s status as he remains in rehab fighting for sobriety.

Jennifer Aydin stated that she will be returning to The Real Housewives of New Jersey next season. After Jennifer’s claims made the rounds, a so called RHONJ insider claims that Teresa and Dolores will return alongside Jennifer next season. We address these “insider” claims, Miss Aydin’s claims, break down just who this / these RHONJ insiders are and, most importantly, the likelihood any of this is true. We discuss the importance of RHONY and The Villains in determining the future cast of RHONJ, when we can realistically expect Bravo to focus on RHONJ’s future, Marge and Melissa’s claims about their future and why Jen Aydin could learn a thing of two from Marge The Sarge.

Gretchen Rossi steps Behind The Rope. It is hard to imagine it’s been seven seasons since Gretchen was last a full time cast member on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Gretchen reflects back on her several season run on the granddaddy of The Real Housewives Franchise. We discuss the good (meeting fiancé Slade Smiley, performing with the Pussycat Dolls), the bad (there seems to be no love loss between her and former co-star Tamra Judge, the 80s Bunco Party, a reference to a certain muppet who goes by the name Miss Piggy), and the other (how RHOC has forever changed her life). Gretchen chats about many of her former colleagues - Vicki Gunvalson, Heather Dubrow, Alexis “Jesus Juggs” Bellino and more. With all the talk in the past few weeks about Tamra’s Takedown, potential lawsuits and former RHOC cast members and Housewives across all franchises, including Gretchen, weighing in on the current and decade long past actions of Tamra, we figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Gretchen Rossi. @gretchenrossi @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: BRANCH BASICS - branchbasics.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Your Entire Order Of These Non-Toxic, All-Natural Cleaning Prducts) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) 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.

Louie Ruelas’ friend and owner of “Warrior Camp”, Garrett White, has been sued by several women for sexual harassment among other things. We break down those claims, discuss the camp, talk about Garrett’s other friend Ryan Boyajian from RHOC, the bond between Ryan, Jen Pedantri, Louie and Teresa against Tamra Judge and much more. Speaking of Teresa, we discuss the first episode of The Villains, Tiffany “New York” Pollard vs. Tre, the rumors that Teresa told Bloggers, here we go again, that she did not win and what to expect the rest of this season knowing RHONJ does not take the crown. Joel Kim Booster issues an apology to Shannon Beador after slamming her regarding her on set “Love Hotel” behavior, we analyze the authenticity of that apology and discuss why people are slowing starting to turn on this season’s RHOC darling, Miss Beador. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Heather and Terry Dubrow step Behind The Rope. Heather and Terry chat all things RHOC - the highs and lows, many cast changes over the years and cast mates such as Tamra, Vicki, Shannon & Kelly Dodd. We also chat other franchises such as RHONY & RHOBH, Garcelle, Kyle Richards and Lisa Rinna. The conversation then turns to Botched, many of Terry’s extra challenging cases and Botched colleague and friend Paul Nassif. Before Botched there was The Swan, one of the best reality shows of all time (google it people), which Terry was a Doctor on. He informed us it is ranked as one of the worst reality shows of all time (we now love it just a little more). With all the talk this season about the takedown of Tamra Judge, the redemption of Shannon and the coupling of Alexis & Johnny J, we figured today the perfect day to remind everyone about this blast from the past chat with the one and only Fancy Pants and Mr. Fancy Pants Dubrow. @heatherdubrow @dr.dubrow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames) JLO BEAUTY - jlobeauty.com/VELVET (Get 4 Free Masks and Free Shipping on Jennifer Lopez Beauty Products!!)

Stassi Schroeder reveals she was asked back to Vanderpump Rules and then basically “fired” all over again. We break down Stassi’s strange set of circumstances with VPR, Producers and Bravo and discuss her, and other Reality Stars’ comebacks over the years. With RHONY back in our lives, we figured it time to give a true accurate break down of this season, why Rebecca Minkoff is a great hire and why they should quadruple down on Scientology and the Leah, Tom, John, David no last names needed of it all. Speaking of RHONY, we discuss the very, and we mean very, good news for Teresa, Melissa and a few others across the river in RHONJ land, break down the shocking attempted take down of Tamra Judge, share updates with Kelly Dodd and last, but certainly not least, review Jeff Lewis’ shocking, unbelievable, insane comments about BFF Shannon Beador and offer our unsolicited advice to Miss Beador as only we know how. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames) JLO BEAUTY - jlobeauty.com/VELVET (Get 4 Free Masks and Free Shipping on Jennifer Lopez Beauty Products!!)

Elizabeth Vargas steps back Behind The Rope. Many years ago we had Elizabeth on right after her one season wonder ended on RHOC. With so much going on this current season, we figured it the best time to sit down and chat with Elizabeth again. We break down all that has been happening this season - the return of Jesus Jugs, her engagement to Johnny J and the videotape of what really went down with Shannon that fateful night she crashed her car into a house. Elizabeth discusses the importance of Emily and Gina, the return to form of the Tamra we all know, Shannon’s edit and redemption and much, much more. Seeing as the OC is a small place where everyone seems to know everyone, Elizabeth brought friends with her who know more about what happened the night Shannon received her DUI, who have had past histories and run ins with Johnny J, who know our good friend - cue the sarcasm - ole Kelly Dodd and much, much more off screen drama, secrets and true boots on the RHOC in their backyard ground with the one and only Miss Elizabeth Vargas.

Margaret Josephs has come out swinging in support of her friend Tamra Judge. As the mounting calls for Tamra’s takedown, termination and legal action against her continue by viewers, the Housewife Community - Teresa, Jill Zarin, Vicki, Shannon, Gretchen, Kelly Dodd and RHOC colleagues, Margaret details why she will not turn her back on her friend. Margaret explains why she thinks RHOC is bordering on RHONJ territory as we discuss whether the OC is the next franchise to go on pause, whether it has risen to the toxic level of RHONJ, what to expect at the upcoming RHOC soon to be filmed reunion and offer words of advice, along with both Marge and Melissa Gorga’s word of advice, to the RHOC cast on what to avoid moving forward. Speaking of the RHONJ pause, we share some real reasons of how we got here and why it won't be ending anytime soon, discuss Johnny J’s first, most unexpected RHOC confessional, break down the real reasons why Alexis wont be attending the cast trip and what to expect as this return to form season of the Grandaddy of them all, RHOC, continues on. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Recently we attended what we thought was a Boy George concert. The night turned into a Boy George concert plus a whole lot more which involved full back stage access and a night out with the one and only PK. We chat about our evening with PK and George, dispel many long standing mistruths about Paul Kemsley and, probably most important to y’all, discuss the tea spilled about Dorit and the upcoming season of RHOBH!! Some nights just turn out great. In other RHOBH news, David Foster and Katharine McPhee seem to be having marital issues, Erika Jayne looses her now infamous earnings forever and still faces legal troubles ahead from Marco Marco and last, but certainly not least, Kyle Richards is seen around town, once again, with no wedding ring.

Louie Ruelas says a lot about a lot of things but at the end of the day, what does he really say? Who is the real Louie under all the one liners and anecdotes of positivity? We attempt to answer that question, discuss his future with Teresa and what is next for this self proclaimed soul mate couple now that RHONJ is on pause for the very long future. RHOBH prepares to return, both Kathy Hilton and Lisa Rinna have life updates, RHONY also prepares to return and much more Housewives hot goss from the past week is broken down, analyzed and discussed.

Tamra Judge has just apologized for a second time regarding potential slanderous remarks which Jennifer Pedranti’s man Ryan Boyajian has threatened to sue her for. We revisit Tamra’s claims and both apologies as we separate fact from fiction on what constitutes slander and defamation, how to serve someone a lawsuit and whether, in fact, Tamra has actually been sued. As a shock to no one, everyone from the OC and Housewives across franchises have weighed in in what seems like support against Tamra. Kelly Dodd has threatened a class action lawsuit urging OC legends Vicki and Gretchen to join in. Kelly details why she wants to sue Tamra, claims she has received advice from Jim Bellino himself and explains why it is time to “take down that Bit$h”. Vicki takes this opportunity to slam Tamra, offer her and RHOC Producers some advice for the future and says she has heard from Teresa and Jill Zarin in support of taking Tamra down. We deep dive why Teresa and Jill each have their own set of issues with Tamra and discuss other Housewives and House Husbands who are eagerly anticipating what happens next in this most interesting turn of events for Miss Tammy Sue Waddle. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

RHOSLC Season 5, Episode 2. Craziness, all stars, over the top fashion and more. Mary Cosby, like Ramona Singer, has no problem looking someone in the face - in this case newbie Britani - and telling them she just does not care at all whatsoever about them.

Elizabeth Vargas steps Behind The Rope. Many years ago we had Elizabeth on right after her one season wonder ended on RHOC. With so much going on this current season, we figured it the best time to sit down and chat with Elizabeth again. We break down all that has been happening this season - the return of Jesus Jugs, her engagement to Johnny J and the videotape of what really went down with Shannon that fateful night she crashed her car into a house. Elizabeth discusses the importance of Emily and Gina, the return to form of the Tamra we all know, Shannon’s edit and redemption and much, much more. Seeing as the OC is a small place where everyone seems to know everyone, Elizabeth brought friends with her who know more about what happened the night Shannon received her DUI, who have had past histories and run ins with Johnny J, who know our good friend - cue the sarcasm - ole Kelly Dodd and much, much more off screen drama, secrets and true boots on the RHOC in their backyard ground with the one and only Miss Elizabeth Vargas.

Braunwyn holds nothing back in sharing the status of her sobriety, her relationships and everything else she has going on since leaving the show. Of course, we also break down just why the public did not believe her truth, the masses that cried “fake” storylines, what really went on behind the scenes with Production and filming and how and why she thinks Bravo could have handled it all much differently.

RHOSLC is back baybee! Season 5, Episode 1. RHOSLC has returned with a bang. From fighting over bath bombs to Mary’s words of wisdom that a large piece of meat does not easily digest, our fav snowflake holders have sure brought it in this premiere episode. Not a weak link in the entire group, everyone brought their A game, Angie brought a scroll and many friendships were shifted, broken down and, hey, a few were even started. Meredith vs. Whitney, Angie vs Meredith - not that Meredith cares nor pays her the time of day, Lisa vs Angie, Mary vs Britani and everyone and everything else in what seems to be shaping up to be the take down season of one Whitney Rose. Of course, we also met newbie fashionista Bronwyn - $15,000 coat and all, had an engaged Mary - was she warned after last season?, witnessed tons of Reality Von Tease mentions - last season seems like years ago and more in what seems reminiscent of vintage RHONY (thank you Shed Media) where everyone and anyone has something to say, scream and / or act out to be heard. In other news, Teresa Giduice received some bad news this week, we share updates on Jackie's friendships with both Tre and Marge and much more RHONJ news as we break down the good and bad from this past week in the BravoVerse! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.

Renee and Jenn Graziano step Behind The Rope. Renee returns and brings big sis Jen to, as we like to say, mention it all. Renee and Jenn discuss the early days of Mob Wives, castmates Drita, Karen, Carla, Big Ang and what it was like to work as creator (Jenn) and talent (Renee) while balancing being sisters outside of the show. Jenn and Renee talk about the ups and downs in their relationship throughout the years, filming Mob Wives at a time when the “big boys” in the lifestyle did not always approve, the importance of family and what their relationship, and the relationship to their co-stars is today. Speaking of ups and downs in a sister relationship, The Granziano girls weigh in on Teresa vs. Melissa, the toxic nature and future of RHONJ, RHOSLC, the return of Mary Cosby and last, but certainly not least, Renee’s fav Housewife of all time, Erika Jayne. Finally, Renee and Jen chat about what we can expect from each of their new stellar Podcasts, The Crysis Queen Podcast (Renee) and The Straightenedout Podcast (Jenn) @jenngraziano @reneegraziano @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: TASKRABBIT - taskrabbit.com (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Any Tasker For Any Task) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) 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.

RHONJ casting news has arisen this week and been exposed. We break down the RHONJ casting news and separate fact from fiction as this fractured, on pause franchise looms on. Nene Lakes returned to the NBC family earlier this week to host the E! Emmy’s after party. We discuss what this means for Nene, the rumors that she is returning to RHOA and how her hosting alongside Ariana - still America’s favorite darling - went. Certain Housewives are struggling after the gig ends and the camera lights fade and some thrive. We break down which is which and look ahead to the future of the franchise as a whole. Hotel Love begins to film with Lu, Giz, Ash and Beador, Andy Cohen’s private texts, messages and conversations are set to be released to Leah McSweeney as her lawsuit moves forward, RHOM cameras are back up as of earlier this week and much more as we break down all the latest hot goss from the past few days in the BravoVerse. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Braunwyn Windham Burke steps Behind The Rope. Braunwyn is here to chat about her experience before, during and after her two season run on the OG of them all, The Real Housewives of Orange County. Braunwyn breaks down the highs and lows of her time on RHOC and all that she faced during this time in the public eye - coming out as gay, revealing she is an alcoholic and showing what society still considers an “unconventional” marriage. Braunwyn holds nothing back in sharing the status of her sobriety, her relationships and everything else she has going on since leaving the show. Of course, we also break down just why the public did not believe her truth, the masses that cried “fake” storylines, what really went on behind the scenes with Production and filming and how and why she thinks Bravo could have handled it all much differently. Finally we chat cast mates such as Vicki, Tamra, Shannon & Heather Dubrow and much more. All this and we are only getting started as today we deemed the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Braunwyn. @braunwynwindhamburke @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) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) PSYCHIC SOURCE (Download The Psychic Source App in Apple or Google Play For Free To Get a 35 Minute Psychic Reading For Only $20 With Code Velvet) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) 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.

There is really only one main topic to break down today. After gathering all of the facts of she said, she said, we break down the epic war that seems to be getting worse by the day between Tamra and Vicki, no last names needed. Who could have ever predicted this? After feuding all season, off air, Vicki slammed Tamra as a bad mom who does not care at all about daughter Sidney, has martial problems with husband Eddie and is just a dark, toxic person of no substance. Fresh out of a brow lift, CO2 laster treatment and chemical peel, looking almost unrecognizable, Tamra clapped back, changed her tune twenty four hours later and broke down leaving fans to speculate what was real and not real. We break down the back story of this feud, the claims that Tamra and Eddie have problems and that Vicki is jealous, pathetic and will never be back on RHOC in the feud we never expected, nor knew we needed, but are so here for considering it is just as dynamic, diabolical and entertaining as anything we are watching on this season of RHOC. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: PSYCHIC SOURCE (Download The Psychic Source App in Apple or Google Play For Free To Get a 35 Minute Psychic Reading For Only $20 With Code Velvet) 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) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) 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.

So many changes in the VanderVerse, so little time. Today we try to make sense of it all. Jax and Brittany move forward with their divorce, engage in on line shade, film The Valley - separately, continue the Pod - separately and everything and anything else in between as she goes on the cast trip while he sits this one out. Jax is diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and PTSD, Brittany is seen breaking down during filming and we wonder whether this divorce will actually happen. Scheana and Lala continue to film The Valley, Stassi Schroeder prepares to film Stassi Says and Vanderpump Villa and Lisa Vanderpump smiles ear to ear with the last laugh. All this and we still do not know about the future of VPR as we are joined back by Rob Schulte from the Vanderpump Robs Podcast. @robkschulte @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PSYCHIC SOURCE (Download The Psychic Source App in Apple or Google Play For Free To Get a 35 Minute Psychic Reading For Only $20 With Code Velvet) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging) ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) 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.
