I don't know if this has been mentioned before ((I'm too lazy to read past posts) but I read something today that said the count and countess are divorcing. Apparently he is involved with an Ethiopian woman somewhere in Europe. The last line made me roll my eyes...LuAnn says something to the effect of "I will always be the countess."

I can't wait for the New Jersey HW's!! I want to discuss but maybe we should start a new thread? Hate to burst Luann's bubble but even Princess Di didn't get to keep her title. Bethenny's book is getting rave reviews so far ~ wonder how Luann's will do. The early reviews are snippets from people like Whoopi. What?? We'll see.

I might read Bethany's book but not Luann's. She went to a school? or whatever that place was with the teenage girls, anyway, she sounded so full of herself and I don't think she gave them any good advise.

Thanks Lotsofkids. I figured it went that way, but then I saw a clip of Simon actaully playing, and thought it might have been a ruse to get Ramona and Mario to let their guard down - gues Simon really can't play huh? I was laughing like crazy that Bethany knew so well how they would react to Simon. I was glad Jill went with it.

Luann is very full of herself. As far as RHONJ, I laughed so hard I nearly cried! It felt almost like watching The Sopranos! LOL

Coop, Simon said he really doesn't play tennis that much. He was also battling the flu when he practiced with Jill and at the tennis match. I'm going to give Simon kudos for putting his differences with Jill aside, playing with the flu, and really really getting under Ramona's skin!!!

The RHWNJ preview is on again tonight at 9:30. As far as Luann going to the Boys/Girls club, ummm, they're subject was "good self esteem" so let's tell the girl who wants to be a model that she needs to diet, jeez, can the Countess say "eating disorder"!!! I'm also sick of seeing Kelly wearing shirts like they're dresses! O.k. rant over......must be PMS!

I loved it that Ramona did not give Bethany and Jill what they wanted. That to me was the best part so in the end, they admitted it was actually quite boring. I really can't stand the Team Jill clothing. She wears it all the time. I know Ramona can be annoying but I actually don't mind her and was happy she did not give them what they wanted.

I totally agree Kellsma! Ramona & Mario are both annoying and it even annoyed me that LuAnn showed up with a Team Jill shirt. I still like Jill (not her apt now-!!!) and I was glad it turned out the way it did. I even felt sort of bad for Simon, too.

I just started watching this week's episode and I have to say that Luann at the girls' club was pathetic. Talk about inflated self-esteem. She thought the girls really were "appreciative" of her spending time with them? Um, I didn't see an overabundance of appreciation. In fact, as Luann was blathering on, I saw a lot of bored girls. I thought Luann was especially condescending to this girls. And even more so to the girl who wanted to be a babysitter as well as the one who wanted to be a model. C'mon Luann, really, not everyone loves you as much as you love yourself.

I saw this show for the first time this week (saw a couple of episodes back to back.) I totally love Bethenny, I remember her from being on Wickedly Perfect, one of my favorite shows ever! Kelly has that strange look that people have when their lip color blends in with the rest of their face. Her fight with Bethenny was ridiculous. Money doesn't buy class, and this show is a case in point!

Not only was the apartment dreadful, those kitchen cabinets were hideous!!! I can't wait to see Silex's townhouse when they are finished with the remodel. Anytime there is a remodel that requires a total gut job, tearing down walls, etc. - the outcome is usually pretty fantastic! The more I think about it, the more I like that they lived in the house for a couple of years so they could get the feel of the house - to know what would work and what wouldn't work.

I've gotten past the part where they show Jill's "new" apartment and... ACK! I would run screaming! It was so busy. And while I don't mind mixing styles, the baroque with the "POP" tables? Not a good mix. And her "gay husband"? If I had a designer telling me, basically, tough, I'd fire him. He's not the person living in that apartment. If he can't respect what I want, he'd be outta there! Oddly enough, the kitchen cupboards were the least offensive to me.

I think you could see that Ramona was bothered by Simon. She just didn't have a big verbal meltdown. The expressions on her face were great, albeit bizarre probably due to botox limitations, but she was sure annoyed. What's with Mario? Jealous of all Simon's screen time? LuAnn, go buy some clues. A big box please as you need a lot of them. Jill, punish Brad for what happened to that nice apartment. It was fine before maybe a bit heavy here and there. OK, you wanted a change, but this? Are you sure? Look again. One more time. Oh, now you see it, go punish Brad. kelly, find out where LuAnn gets the clues and you buy 100x what she does. Then find someone who can explain them to you. Silex, you're growing on me. Hope it is more like a kid learning vegetables are tasty than dank mold growing in the basement. Time will tell. Bethanny, you can be funny but you sure do seem sad.

Hope this isn't old news but http://www.usmagazine.com/news/new-york-housewives-countess-luann-split-has-been-really-difficult-200974 but Luanne and her husband have split. If this comes up on the show it'll be interesting how she spins it. I think it would be fun to see her start to date since she was so full of dating advise for Bethanny. OMG- the aesthetics of that apartment is atrocious. Doesn't she see that? Bethanny's take on the apartment was interesting...I think she was as nice as possible and she was still funny.
