Bethenney is leaving the show to do her own show on Bravo. Haven't read anything about if she'll leave gradually or just stop appearing.

Sonja was trying to show off and appear sexy. Her sexual bravado to me was just that, she could very likely get the least amount of sex and is wanting to project an image that to her makes her look sexy. Yanno what they say about braggers. If she was getting all this great sex I don't think she'd have to brag about it. Who knows. Theresa calling her old wh*re crazy and B wasn't funny to me. I think that Theresa is wanting some of that fanbase of folks who like the snarks because it's worked for Bethenney. IMO Theresa just doesn't pull it off like Bethenney does.

Theresa and Bethenney can only be compared in that they are women.
I really wonder how much of the negativity this season is stirred up by the producers ?

Theresa is a blogger while Bethenney is on the show. I think them being women is a wide angled comparison. Theresa's blogs have been pro Jill for awhile until Jill's actions on the show made it impossible for Theresa to maintain her support due the fan base being heavily in favor of Bethenny.

I think I might have met Sonja many years ago. I will have to google her to see if it is the same person.

Alex and Simon are supposed to be on the Wendy Williams show today if anyone is interested.


Alisons, did you find out if you met Sonja?

Jury is still out. I am almost convinced it is the same person, but the age seems wrong (I would have thought she was slightly older than being born in 1963). I have some photos of the time in question at my parents' house, I think I will have to check them to be sure.

If it is the same person - when I met her we were both teenagers at a summer program. The girl I remember was VERY nice but much more high strung/nervous/emotionally fragile than this woman seems to be. However that is something that could change, so it still may be the same person.

Andy's shows usually rerun during the week so you may be able to catch it... or record it.

Just saw and ad with Andy Cohen/Bethenny and he aid she would be with Jill tonight on the aftershow.

Jill is so fake as she congratulates on her engagement and makes up a lie as to why it took her so long to contratulate her. As soon as Bethenny came toward the group, Jill got up and left.

The funniest part of the night was when Jill stopped Luann mid-sentence and dissed her to catch Bethenny before she left...lol.

NOW Jill wants to try to see if there is a relationship left with Bethennny...nope...too little too late. Bethenny tried and tried and she is done. However, now that Bethenny is engaged (let alone pregnant) Jill wants to be part of it.

I'm watching the aftershow and haven't heard a mention of Jill calling in or anything, so perhaps I misunderstood Andy's blurb to Bethenny on the commercial. Darn! I wanted to see if Jill would be fake-nice tonight, lol.

Jill was on Joy Behar's show tonight - but I only saw about 2 minutes and she was part of the panel discussing "reality tv".

Just watched the show, have to say I thought Jill's behavior reminded me of stupid things I did as a teenager. Namely over reacting to a friend not being what I wanted her to be but not really doing anything deserving how I reacted. Hope that makes sense. But Jill's 45 and should be alot more mature. I don't blame Bethenney for being polite but distant with Jill. Jill abruptly got up and left then tried to cover it up with a weak lie.

I'd like Luann to just shut up. Who confronts someone on the night they announce their engagement with selfserving BS?

I cracked up watching Luann apartment hunt and declare that she couldn't afford the apartments that weren't up to her countess standards. Then say Lets go uptown and look at rents there. Uhm Miss delusional the prices aren't going to be cheaper. She sure thinks alot of herself.

Jason is so sweet. He really loves Bethenney and I'm happy she has him. Lucky lady. She deserves it and Jill is just feeling sorry now because she's out of the loop when things are going so well for Bethenney. What a fair weathered friend.

I think Jill has a low opinion of Bethenney and expected B to be struggling and doing awful without Jill in her life. I also think that Jill was sitting back waiting for B to crawl, begging back to Jill and then and only then would Jill have been satisfied.

B said it best. Jill just can't be happy for her.

After watching last nights show I am even more disgusted with Jill's behavior. What a hypocrite. She clearly wants friendship only on her terms. She decided to extend an olive branch and was upset that Bethany didn't jump at it. I used to like Jill. I still am not a huge Bethany fan but in this scenario she certainly does come out on top. Now the Countess, what a piece of work that is. She obviously spends her spare time self promoting and confronting everyone and anyone who she thinks has done her harm. I bet 10 years from now she will still be trying to get Mario to apologize. Did anyone get the fact that even while congratulating Bethany on her engagement she had to slip in the fact that Bethany had called her a snake? Total wingnut.

Did you catch when Luann was telling Kelly how much she liked her because she acted like and was "such a child"? Kelly's face was like "wth?" If Luanne acts with "clawwss" then I don't want any!

Avery is such a nice kid, so Ramona and Mario have obviously done something very right with her.

Outside the event when Jill and Bobby came out and, oh let's use the word ambushed Bethenny, Bobby looked embarassed. Jill said last week that Bethenny didn't deserve her...well, looks like she's trying to crawl back and now she doesn't deserve Bethenny. I'm glad Jason was there. She hasn't revealed yet that she's pregnant, and he was very protective of her emotional state.

Jill didn't go congratulate Bethenny because she was concerned about Bethenny's feelings. Jill congratulated Bethenny without a thought to what Bethenny wanted, because Jill simply didn't look bad. After all the rebuffs Jill has made of Bethenny's approached, she has the gall to be surprised when Bethenny was cold to her!

Luann's snake comment was completely out of bounds in that situation. Again, she was only concerned for herself, and not Bethenny.

Ramona may be a nut, but at least she was genuinely happy for Bethenny. I hope Bethenny and Alex remain friends outside of the show; I think Alex could be good for Bethenny.

Agree about Ramona and Alex, Prisoner! I think Alex especially, is far more "normal" than I thought in previous seasons. Omg, she even asked permission (like a normal person, lol) to share Bethenny's engagement information with Simon! From their Twitter accounts, Ramona and Alex/Simon are all still tight with Bethenny. I'm glad she has found some real friends from this hot mess of a show.

blogs are up on Bravo from the cast minus Luanna and Jill. Theresa's blog is up, I'm anxious to read everyone's thoughts especially on Theresa's blog. It confused me but it's early and I just woke up. I can never tell if Theresa is giving out digs or being funny or if it's a sideways compliment.

Adore Alex more and more each show, there's depth to that woman she's okay in my book.

Can't help but love Ramona she makes me laugh and though she might say things more directly than most of us, I find her genuine and I think she and Mario are great together. I'm so glad Mario told Luann that he didn't like the unkind things she'd said about Ramona.

I just finished watching this and all I can say is WOW!!!

Luann. Completely inappropriate all around. I can't believe she congratulated Bethenny in such a backhanded way.

Jill. Completely clueless. She is definitely a high school mean girl. She couldn't stay in the same area and be civil with Bethenny? She had to walk away? And to congratulate Bethenny with a handful of excuses? She just should have simply said congrats and she's happy for her, and left it at that. By saying all she did, she just drew attention to her bad attitude. (And B was right... the only time J showed animation was about the ring. Really? REALLY? Ramona jumped up and down with joy over the idea and NOT the ring!)

I'm amazed that I'm finding Alex more and more "normal" and likable this season. Whodathunkit?

Not a fan of Sonja. Again inappropriate. It's like she's trying too hard. When I think of that term "cougar" she would come to mind. And Luann calling Kelly a child? Kelly's expression was hilarious... definitely ?

Ramona, as nuts as she acts, has raised a delightful daughter. She's poised and SHE has class.

I know B, R, and A have remained friends because those are the ones who went to B's wedding. I'm glad to see that B has some "normal" girlfriends. And Jason is an absolute doll!! Love him!!!

First off I will not be buying Jill's book. If her behavior is in anyway an example of a Jewish mother's secret, well that should be keep a family secret. Did Jill actually say that in her book, her mother puts the dog first and the kids second? Another reason for me not to buy this book.

I am shocked that my impression of Simon and Alex has actually improved over this past season.Luann and Jill are just so full of them selves and definitely jealous of Bethenny. While I find Ramona difficult to watch/listen to I must say that what we have seen of her home is exquisite and I envy her in that regard. Her daughter also seems delightful so she and Mario have indeed been wonderful parents.
Yes Sonja is a cougar ; but I do so enjoy seeing her home as well. Sonja's clothes, home are the sots of things I would imagine that a true NY socialite would have; yet she does seem to talk incessantly about sex and is not genuine.
