Dorit denies everything. The spending, the friendship fall outs, her divorce he said/ she said, the foreclosure of it all. Ms. Kemsley has denied, disagreed with or informed us that it never happened. Speaking of friendship fall outs, Erika Jayne’s legal $25 million dollar lawsuit is settled but all is definitely not as it seems. Not so fast.

The Summer House reunion has been insane to say the least, but the rumors, and nastiness, behind the scenes all lead to one thing. The future of Summer House is very uncertain, at best. Andy Cohen has lost all control of oh, so very many things. Boz makes bold moves. Spencer Pratt makes bolder moves. Ladies of London is hit with a tragedy. Last, but sure not least, with RHONJ back in full swing, Melissa Gorga has a new unexpected feud which has left everyone talking.

@davidyontef

Now that the dust has settled from this season of Summer House and the three part reunion is well underway, one thing has become clear. West Wilson is beyond clueless. After a lackluster season of RHOBH, as production floats names around for cast changes, Lisa Rinna is demand back hard core. RHOBH’s major cast change is a brewin’. Nene is happy with Bravo’s scraps. Last, but not least, the truth behind Stassi and Katie’s reconciliation is exposed.
