I love Shannon, but quick Fashion Police moment, does she ever NOT wear super tight white skinny jeans?? Just not sure that’s what’s working for her at this time. She needs a bit of a wardrobe update. Is John wearing white jeans too??
In this dinner scene I think you can see the tension, and maybe John being annoyed with her, and not being – present.
He accuses her, if ‘accuses’ is the right word, of having her “mind spinning all the time.” So she has things going on, she’s running a business, and is trying to earn herself a living. How DARE she??
Shannon looks put off by that. As she should. What an asshole. Such a DUDE thing to say. Typical dude whose brain is shut off 99% of the time, and can think of no one other than themselves and if THEIR needs are met.

Pedi Time for Tamra, Emily, and Heather. Tamra makes fun of Heather’s “we all have our place in the world and some people shovel shit, and I now know to appreciate the shit shovelers” to Emily before Heather arrives.
It is humorous, not in a good way, to now having this epiphany, at 53, that there are a certain class of dreadful people that do ‘shit’ work, so she doesn’t have to, as Emily points out. It’s almost as if, or, exactly as if, she thinks that there is this designated person on the ranch that they visited, that ONLY shovels shit, and does nothing else but shovel shit, all day. And this unfortunate person was put on this earth to shovel shit, so she can eat a steak.
Yes condescending as FUCK. Emily is so right on, and I can’t stand Emily.
But in the interest of fairness, I will also be really quick to point also point out, that Emily has her condescending moments too, so she should probably take a seat. She and Shane did just have a convo that she would be more than willing to cancel a botox appointment, to take Annabell to a modeling gig. More than willing. So ‘big’ of her.
What sort of pedi place is this? They serve champagne in WINE GLASSES?
Heather requests extra massage. Well you know, there are people put on this earth, to massage her feet. That’s their place in the world, and she now knows to appreciate it. Does this mean that she’s going to stop treating wait staff in restaurants like shit?? That’s a tidbit I came across on Twitter last year from people who work in the restaurant industry in OC. At her ‘regular’ places she has all of these demands that need met the second she walks in the door, or she pitches a fit.
Gemily was put on this earth to give Heather a hard time, this season, and let her know she’s condescending as fuck. Last year they couldn’t get far enough up her ass.. and didn’t mind all of the nasty antics just so long as they weren’t directed at them. Okay, so Taylor vs Heather comes up, and Heather exclaims to Emily, “that’s not very nice – you’re assuming she was in the right and I was in the wrong.” Heather schooling people on being ‘nice.’
You can certainly see that the dynamic has changed this season between Gemily and Heather, compared to last year.
They couldn’t get enough of having their tongue up her asshole, now they just don’t seemed to be telling her what a shit head she is. Bravo instructions hard at work here again. Tamra picks on New Jenn, while Gemily picks on Heather. Not sure where that leaves Shannon, maybe she’ll be off the hook this season, as far as being bullied around. She’s one of the few ‘real’ housewives left, out of all of the franchises, that doesn’t subscribe to ‘scripts.’ Candiace on Potomac, and Heather on Salt Lake City are two others.
So I guess a lot of things about Heather’s rudeness and entitlement, because she’s the most loaded one. are going to come to light and be addressed this season. How many times she repeated her twins are going to college, and we’re seven episodes in. It needs to be a drinking game.
Emily points out the fact that she’s constantly making it seem as if her life is much more important than everybody else’s. Well, duh. She even goes on to tell her – “you’re not self-aware of how you sound sometimes.” Which I agree with, but lemme play devil’s advocate for a second.
Emily, riddle me this. Were you self aware of how you sounded and behaved last season?? Were you self-aware how you came across at the reunion, especially?
It was a clown show literally, because she looked like a clown for one thing, with twenty layers of makeup on, a clown-like hideous dress, her chubby arms flailing arms around, as she’s talking nonsense and OBSESSED with Noella’s love life. Going after Noella and Shannon, both of whom did nothing to her.
So to sit here and listen to her lecture Heather is making me nauseous. Emily claims in her yap, that it’s important to tell Heather that she comes across like this, because no one else has the balls to tell her. Wait, hold the phone, excuse me, Emily, were you like taking a fucking nap for three months last season???
Noella told her MULTIPLE TIMES exactly how she is, and you fucking bitches sided with Heather, because Noella wasn’t important or bougie enough.
Yeah, fine, Noella was a little bit of an acquired taste. I admit it, but you know what? I respect her. She wasn’t sitting there with her fucking pupils dilated, fucking mesmerized over stupid Heather’s stupid house, and her stupid case of Dom she brings everywhere.
And where is she this season? No where to be found because Heather had her eliminated. Wow the hypocrisy.
Heather is hosting/planning whatever – dinner at Nobu. You know, the establishment that catered her event last season, with the orchestrated Shannon take-down took place, and they never even had dinner because she kicked everyone out.
******
Gina is at New Jenn’s yoga studio, after taking her class, with this fake “hiiiiiiiii” Why is she being so freaking nice to her, you ask?
The only thing I can think of, which I’m probably right, is that she’s pretending to be friendly so that Jenn lets her guard down, thereby making it more entertaining to come for her again. I mean like didn’t we already go through this fake apology. let’s-bury-the-hatchet-I was -triggered-let’s- start-over-thing? Then she went fake nuts again after that. And Jenn’s buying it this time? Because this time she really means it? Please.
I wish Bravo would stop scripting the shows. Suggesting topics to discuss, is one thing, but actually doling out orders as to picking on the others, when these are grown ass fucking women?? Not that it would be any more acceptable in children. I guess, that’s even worse is. Long story short, I’m finding it to not be entertaining.
I think Gina got caught up in the whole OC scene, and then being cast as a Housewife shortly after becoming an OC resident, I guess you can say that she sort of had a double whammy of shit going to her head. Not sure why she kicked up this OC twang this season though. Seems also a little beneath her age range, but I was told that’s how some of the women speak there. At the same time, none of the other ladies talk like this, so there’s that.
I think that’s how an OC woman talks when she’s trying too hard to fit in and be all Super Extra SoCal, trying to fit the bougie OC bill, who really aren’t.
She apologizes to Jenn and claims that she feels bad, for all of fake rage towards her.
Gina appears to be sincere, as she goes on and on and on some more. Maybe she should try out for Taylor’s movie instead of Heather, because we already know she’s a bad actor. New Jenn is so sweet and trusting. This is just sad because Gina doesn’t mean any of this shit she’s saying. Gina’s killing her with insincere compliments right now, it’s almost hard to watch.
******
And onto my other least favorite housewife, Emily. Why is Shane always smacking her ass? Emily is now NOT attacking and publicly humiliating her mom anymore for having a mental disorder, I guess? She gets all sentimental because Mom sent her some pictures from her childhood. Shane encourages her to give her mom a call. Again, we hear how she had to get herself ready for school.
I’m sure her mom really appreciates this fucking ungrateful chick repeating this over and over to the entire fucking universe. Emily, also says how she suffered from depression, then in the next breath she says this shit. It’s so extra disgusting. Emily shut up. She admits to not even really speaking to her mom much since 2019. Three entire years ago prior, at the time of filming.
She wants an apology from her. I thought that she said she suffered from depression and mental issues, but she needs more apologies? Did her mom s ay she was sorry three years ago? I’m so confused. Maybe she should go back to work. It’s rubbing me the wrong way, and just look like a sell-out. She calls her mom and she eagerly accepts the invitation to visit.
I wonder if she’s watching these episodes, and sees how many times Emily is fucking throwin’ her under the bus. I’m sure they’re not speaking again. What a bitch.
******
Shannon takes the twins to a consignment store boutique. Shannon is encouraging this because, a. it’s cheaper than buying new, and b. there are some sort of off-gasses on new fabric. She ends up spending 3 grand on a fucking purse for one of them, to ‘save money.’
Apparently there’s some sort of conflict with stupid David telling them they don’t need a college counselor when they seem kind of clueless as to applying. These poor things. They just got back from Paris for two weeks, where they “did lots and lots of shopping.” They can’t be bothered with this college nonsense. Shannon is going to speak to him. Guess he’s allowed to talk to Shannon now, since him the gold digging wife are on the outs.
******
The Nubo redo is going down. ‘let’s take down Shannon’ thing that kind of got in the way last season. Then Heather, missing her bad acting days, decided to act badly, behave badly and ACT badly, at the same time. Now that’s a feat. Pushes the camera dude against the wall, (which she denies) and Terry, a worse actor, getting all mafia about the botched boob job from twenty years ago.
As promised they’re being taken to the restaurant in a tugboat. How are the ladies all going to fit in this thing? Isn’t Emily coming? They arrive in their 6-inch stripper heels, when they know they’re getting in this row boat.
Heather and Taylor are first, and exchange apologies and niceties with each other. Heather admits in her yap, that she’s not really sorry for anything. So typical. They look a little like sardines packed in this little pink tugboat.
Gina is planning on bitching at Heather, with her list of complaints, so it’s good that they’re actually IN the restaurant this time, so when she gets all ticked, she can’t kick everyone out. Although I’m sure she would try. I think Heather really likes kicking people out of her house.
Heather can seriously take no accountability for anything ever. No matter how small or miniscule. She can’t even admit, and say ‘oops my bad’ when she accidentally spilled champagne on Tamra. She tells Tamra she needs a sippy cup, and blames it on her, when she’s the one that spilled the shit. Which you can CLEARLY SEE.
What seriously is WRONG with this woman??
She has little gifts for the ladies including chopsticks with ‘too fabulous to shovel shit’ engraved on them. Confusing because I thought she was all gungho about shoveling shit, to experience how the other half makes a living. But now she’s insisting that everyone here at this table is too good and ‘fabulous’ to shovel shit. I’m unfortunately going to have to get on board with Emily again.
Maybe she’s starting to grow on me- no pun intended. But in my defense, she does have a completely different personality this season, since Bravo now gives them their personality assignments.
She says she’s “never met anybody before so unaware of being unaware.” That sums it up, but Emily can also be obnoxious and condescending in her own rite, so take that for what it is.
Okay, back to this. Wouldn’t it have been more appropriate to have engraved on the chopsticks, something like ‘shoveling shit rocks’ given the fact that she sat there at dinner that night, and went on this whole fucking diatribe about her epiphany of appreciating the working class? Also that would be funny. But not like Heather is the queen of humor.
Tamra apparently has been guzzling tequila all day. You know what that means. She needed some liquid courage to act like a fucking imbecile.
Jenn tells the group that she and Gina are “so good” because Gina gave her that fake-ass apology and pep talk thing at her yoga studio along with fake compliments she didn’t mean.
Gina looks a little glazed over. She’s just chomping at the bit to go after Heather.
You guys know how the housewives that aren’t really my favorite, such as Gina, I do try to give credit where credit is due. I even complimented Emily a few times tonight. Gina’s look at the restaurant – she’s positively glowing. I don’t know if it’s the red that seems to be her color for sure, her olive skin tone that looks a little more tan, her new blue blonde hair, but it’s just working. Whatever you’re doing Gina looks-wise, don’t stop. But you can change your whole entire personality, and get rid of that nasally weird voice anytime.
Shannon is as usual, and continues to be, the Shannon that I love. She’s consistent. She doesn’t have like twenty-seven personalities like the rest of them. She doesn’t like seeing people involved in these stupid take downs. She tends to befriend the ladies that are the underdogs, like she did with Noella last season. She immediately jumps to do Jenn‘s defense, even though you know, SHE was cheated on too by her ex.
But Shannon’s not using it as a ‘story line.’ I mean, she’s had it as a story line, when she lived it. As did Gina. But whatever. No-substance Gina is recycling it, fucking five years later. Matt should be getting a Bravo check for this shit.
Is Emily part Italian? The arms and hands never stop moving. You would think her arms would be in better shape.
Dick pic comes up at the table because, (not literally) I think Tamra loves discussing it. Perhaps she does have a little thing for Ryan. Maybe she likes the fact that Ryan’s a little more into certain activities, than Eddie is, and is a little jealous.
Tamra needs Jenn to admit that Ryan has cheated on her already, referring to their ‘break.’ My take – It would’ve been nice of him to abstain while they were on this ‘break.’ Ryan seems like the kind of guy that’s not going to be waiting around though, which does make me question his sincereity with Jenn.
He needs some pussy, and it doesn’t matter whose it is, or where it’s been. Pussy is pussy to dudes even if it belongs to a serial cheater and liar (not calling Jenn that, referring to someone else.) Tamra’s clearly all cranked up from her tequila drinnking all day. Girl needs a check.
Again she demands from Jenn to explain the Ryan timeline. This whole fucking snoozefest that she’s explained 800 times. Is Tamra slow? Does she need a fucking picture drawn for?
She didn’t leave her family. She didn’t leave her children. She didn’t leaver her ‘world.’ All of her children live with her. What is all of this “you left your family/world for Ryan.”
Then Tamra, I guess you left your ‘whole entire world’ too when you fucking left Simon? This broad is fucking shitfaced, and not making any sense.
It’s pretty bad when you have to arrive at an event, where there’s free alcohol being served, already intoxicated
Jenn tries to explain that for 19 entire years she was feeling unnoticed, so she didn’t leave ‘her world’ for Ryan.
Tamra’s numbskull Teresa Guidice-like come back to that was to yell – “you didn’t tell anybodyyyyy!!!!” (in shrill Tamra voice.) So what if she didn’t tell anybody. What’s her point? And Tamra only recently met her. I don’t know why she’s trying to act like she was her lifelong fucking friend, who kept this from her.
It’s very typical when you’re in a bad marriage, to not really want to talk about it, and certainly not to tell somebody that you just met. Tamra’s marriage with Simon sucked. Did she run around telling everybody? No. She was putting on a fucking happy face for everyone, including the Bravo cameras. Then, as they normally do, Bravo cameras started catching the shit, so she had to own it.
She sounds like a fucking fool. She then proceeds to throw a napkin at Jenn, and storms away from the table, which so on brand. I thought maybe she had matured over the past three years, and would maybe act like she’s fucking 55 not 15. What the hell was I thinking?? I know better than that.
Tamra claims it wasn’t her running around airing all this dirty laundry and shit talking Ryan, when she’s literally been filmed, doing just that.
Tamra loves the story how Ryan walked into her gym and said he wanted to fuck her. That could be a drinking game too. Stock up on your alcohol.
You can tell the bitch is not getting any at home, and is kind of cranky and jealous. That’s actually been a hunch for a while, and on WWHL, Jenn sort of corroborated that things are not happening in that department. Maybe Tamra is just not Eddie’s type, if you know what I mean –wink wink.
“Watch your wife, Ryan goes after married women.” She couldn’t wait to share that one either. We haven’t even gotten to the fucking dinner yet.
Jenn tries to resist hashing this all out on camera, and Tamra snaps “do it with me, I have nothing to hide.”
I don’t believe Tamra has anything to hide either. That’s not the point. The point is, that she’s literally just trying her damndest to make her friend feel shitty. She accuses Tamra of having the hots for Ryan. I wholeheartedly believe she does/did. She’s not getting it at home, so do the math
Tamra, then gets all up in her face and runs away from the table. This is literally just looking like a drunk person, acting erratic at this point. Jenn legit looks dumbfounded.
Shannon tries to ‘run after her’ in her heels that she can barely walk in. Shannon should let her go, so she can sit there and feel really stupid by herself.
With Tamra gone from the table, the other ladies encourage Jenn to speak up for herself, and not take this shit. Jenn seems a little blindsided. I guess she did not know this is a thing, to bring your friends on, and proceed to try to destroy them. Does she not watch Beverly Hills? This is from the Lisa Rinna playbook (of all people to want to emulate.) As Shannon points out, it’s time to back off and let her just figure it out. If he has a reputation, and history of cheating, he probably will be unfaithful to her. Let nature take its course.
Jenn shares in her yap, Tamra had made a joke about Ryan, referring to him as ‘hot gym guy’ and make a joke about going up to his bedroom, when she and Eddie were at his out for a Barbecue.
Harmless joke, but sometimes when you are making jokes, the joke is a cover, because that this is what you’re really feeling. Suddenly, two years later, she’s ‘uncomfortable’ since Bravo cameras are rolling, and she needs something to talk about since she really has nothing. The gym is gone. What really does she have going on in her life? Eddie buying her shoes? Nothing.
How much money is this for again, per episode? Trying to figure out if like selling your soul, is worth this amount of money. I actually have things going on in my life right now where, I feel like I’ve been sold out for money, so it doesn’t feel good, and I would not do this to somebody else.
After Shannon’s talk with Tamra, they go back inside, as she slurs that she needs another shot of tequila. Sure, that’s exactly what she needs, another fucking shot of straight alcohol. She’s not even drinking margaritas here, just taking fucking shots of tequila, to have the nerve to act like a dick. Also, she can barely walk. I guess she wants a new house real badly, and wants out of fucking Eddie’s and his ex’s old house.
Tamra’s at the bar getting her shot that she clearly does NOT need, making a complete fucking fool out of herself, and yelling how she needs a Xanax and is ready to lose her shit. Girl, think you’ve already lost it. These bartenders are looking down, from secondhand embarrassment.
Random dude at the bar she cheers with, tells him she hopes he gets some great snatch. Shannon says he might be married. That probably means he’s not. What’s Tamra’s preoccupation with sex this season? Hmm. Eddie are you paying attention? Please step up to the plate here. We’re all suffering. Does he need a little blue pill??
She stumbles back to the table. Gina and Heather begin to get into Gina’s problems with Heather. She’s following her instructions for the season, being ‘triggered’ by Jenn, and call out Heather for being Heather. However it’s a head scratcher to me, after she could not stop slobbering and foaming at the mouth or over her, last year.
People change people change their minds in a year’s time, and turn into completely different people for the Bravo cameras, I get it. It happens. Heather pulls out her stand-by as an excuse for just being her normal pissy self. The older kids are off to college thing again.
Gina addresses being pissed at her for her comments in Montana, and that when she told Heather that she’s getting her real estate license, and Heather said “Oh, Nicky‘s getting his license too!” Who just graduated from high school, and is 18 years old, and off to college, so that was definitely a dig, and meant to make her feel desperate and silly for wanting to be a realtor.
Honestly, if Tamra needs to take to chugging a bottle of tequila to just get through filming an episode, imagine how the viewers feel. We don’t get paid six figures per month to act like a fucking ass, so we can’t really day drink all fucking day on a Wednesday to get through this.
Tamra manages to Jenn – “I’m sorry for throwing a napkin in your face, but I’m fucking livid.”
She should’ve said ‘Sorry for throwing a napkin at you, but I’m fucking shitfaced.’ That would’ve been more accurate. And what the fuck is she ‘livid’ about? That Jenn’s getting laid, and she’s not?
Back to the real estate license thing with Heather‘s kid. I don’t get why a college bound 18 year old kid that comes from extreme wealth, wtf exactly is he doing with a real estate license at this time? Are his parents cutting him off? He’s planning on selling homes while he’s in college?
Funny how Gina didn’t have any problem with Heather’s fucking condescending and snooty bullshit when it was directed at Shannon last season, right?
Heather thanks her for the feedback, and she claims she’s going to take her issues into account, moving forward. She heard not one fucking word Gina, and you sound like an idiot. Especially after last season when you were also a condescending rude little fuck.
This gets interrupted because supposedly, Terry just texted Heather at the table about David filing for divorce, or whatever and is separated from that evil gold digging ho that he’s with, and had another child with.
I think after this initially came out at filming last year, which would’ve been around August/September 2022, was the first round of those two being separated, (she had been out ho-ing around in clubs, allegedly)
My little OC birdie source, said that she had dirt on him as well, business related) so then he decided to not pursue a divorce. I think as of now, in July 2023, close to a year after this was filmed, (airing was delayed due to editing issues – Heather, demanding Terry’s alleged cheating not be addressed.) they are again separated and divorcing.
So click on this link for some back story, This was from June of this year. My Lord, it’s messy as FUCK !!!
https://pagesix.com/2023/06/09/david-lesley-beador-file-restraining-orders-after-shannon-reunion/
Heather brings up, “didn’t they just go to Paris?” Silly Heather, professional gold diggers know what they’re doing. She wanted one last free bougie trip, so kudos to her.
You would think Shannon would be loving this, and feeling ‘validated’ but no, because she’s Shannon, and she’s fucking awesome, (not saying she’s not laughing on the inside) she says she’s more concerned about the financial aspect of this news, (she knows the woman will be taking him to the cleaners, in other words) not for herself, but because she has one child in college, and two soon to be, assuming the twins get accepted somewhere.
I feel like any other woman who’s not ascool as Shannon, would be sitting here relishing this, and feeling like the ‘winner’ so to speak.
And they made it to dinner this time, and got to this flambe thing. Everyone is so excited!
