Of course Luann was distressed about Kelly calling Bethenny a ho-bag (for the record, Alisons has never called anyone a ho-bag) because Luann herself is known to be, shall we say, a little frisky. Like Sonja. And you know what they say, ho-bags in glass houses shouldn't throw jelly beans!

Okay a few more things-
was LuAnn's song producer at Jill's skating party?

Sonja was in on the whole one night stand/ho bag convo but Kelly left that out.

Kelly told Ramona that Bethenny was like the predator...lol

I just started watching last night's show and all I can say is that Jill acts classless AND clueless. Absolutely no class to crash a party of which she declined to attend, and then to just bust in like that. Alex had the correct word: aggressive. Jill was clueless to think she'd be welcomed with open arms after her classless party crash (on the last day).

I haven't yet heard the whining about the $$ spent.

Kelly says Bethenny says "I went out of my way to have a smear campaign against you." What the heck? There has never been any proof or other evidence that Bethenny said anything in the press, and anyways why would she bother? She'd spent the summer falling in love, was making plans to get married and have a baby. Kelly, dear, the entire world doesn't revolve around you.

It was interesting to see the other HWs' total confusion over what Kelly was talking about. And what did the jelly beans have anything to do with it? (Oh yeah and the woman who doesn't eat anything if it's not natural brings her own candy on vacation because she's afraid there won't be any there? Addicted some?)

...back to watching the show, just hadda comment... that one just floored me...

Jeff Foxworthy's "you might be a redneck" routine had this:

If you're wearing a strapless gown
With a bra that isn't...
You might be a redneck


Kelly was wearing a backless top with a bra that wasn't. I guess if the size 12 Manolo fits... :-)

Costa when they have the reunion I hope the "smear campaign" comment is addressed. It is obviously a lie. That is an out and out lie. I want her called out on it. I think she fabricated the whole thing in hopes public sympathy will sway her way and to explain her irrational behavior. Honestly, her and Jill both can't accept that they aren't the center of attention. Petulent spoiled children behave better than them.

True, Olivia. I about died when Luann said Kelly was 12 (I think that was around the jelly bean time).

Jill and that ugly skating dress. What was up with that? And what is up with inappropriate timing. Ramona clearly didn't want to discuss anything during Jill's event. But both Kelly and Jill had to go there.

the only thing I can come up with on the "Smear Campaign" would be if Bethanny said it in a sarcastic manner, ex:
Oh yeah Kelly.. I am gonna go out of my way to run a smear campaign against you"

Aliens told Kelly what Bethenny said. They disguise themselves as jellybeans. Kelly eats them but is not a ho-bag because it is a continuing relationship, not a one time thing.

That's how I think it would have come out as well, Terolyn...in a facetious manner. However, Kelly doesn't get facetious. As Bethenney stated, Kelly seems to take statements in backwards; ie, the opposite of what a normal person might hear.

The saddest thing is, when a rational person might do this, one can tell them they misunderstood and everyone has a laugh; however, Kelly can't even understand that she's misunderstanding.

I can't pick on Kelly (it's so tempting) she's ill. My best friend became schizophrenic at 41. Sheryl was the nicest kindest person and a true friend. Always thoughtful then she got paranoid, it started out slow, progressed to her accusing her children of random bizarre acts. I hope Kelly isn't schizo, it's an impossible disease. I am proud of Bethenny and the other ladies for recognizing something is very wrong and halting their urge to slam her with the truth. Because Kelly can't acknowledge truth she's too deep in her psychosis.

I'm disgusted with Bravo for captializing on a sick individual. I'm equally angered at Jill and Luann who couldn't give a hoot yet enjoy that Kelly being an antagonist gives them something to chuckle about.

I find it hard to watch any of these ladies any more. Geez, Bravo was always my go-to network for the summer but I think I'm going to avoid it like the plague this summer.

Shenenagon, ITA that Bravo was interested in capitalizing on Kelly's mental health issues rather than helping her get medical attention or informing her family. I e-mailed Bravo right after I saw the show stating as much. Granted I couldn't turn my TV off I had to watch Kelly break from reality.

LuAnn and Jill have shown very little concern for their Kelly's mental health and have made jokes, LuAnn calling her a 12 year old....yes that was a funny line but still Kelly is ill. No one would joke if she had diabetes or some other health issue.

I just want Kelly to get help and certainly hoping that Bravo doesn't invite her back for next season.

Unless "insanely jealous" is a new disorder in the proposed DSM-5, Kelly is not mentally ill.

Lilfair, I agree with you. It was so hard to watch but I also did not turn off my TV. I feel that Bravo should have stepped in, which they did not seeing as how they allowed her to film the reunion show. I went from really disliking her to feeling so sorry for her. It is just a very sad situation and if she doesn't get help not only will she continue to suffer, but her children will also which is the worst part.

For all of you who are convinced Kelly is mentally ill and Bravo is taking advantage of her, did you refuse to watch the show last week? Will you boycott RHONY until it is over?

The episode last week, post-"breakdown," was the highest rated Housewives episode ever.

Prisoner I am pretty sure Kelly has a problem. I don't know what it is, but something doesn't seem right. I did write Bravo and told them that I felt they were using her for ratings and that in my opinion it was unkind to Kelly. As for boycotting the show, no I won't do that. Kelly is 1 part of a cast of many. For whatever reason, I enjoy reality shows. Mainly because I am tired of regular tv programming. If Kelly does have a problem I pray she gets help. If not, then she and Bravo have fooled many people. I also heard that the episode post breakdown was the highest rated episode. I don't know if anyone took delight in what they saw happening, but I do think many took interest. Hence the high ratings.

I'm not watching because Kelly's on. I'm watching because of Bethenny, Ramona, Alex, and Sonja. I hate the scenes with J,K, and L in them. I'm definitely not a fan of this show because of Kelly's bizarre and sad antics. I would never have become a fan if she'd been doing this when RHofNY first came out. I've been a fan since the onset of this show. I'm a troubled fan right now because of Kelly and also Danielle.

Shenanagon I feel the same way about Danielle. I almost dread seeing her. With her you know there will be trouble and someone will get hurt.

Yup, I think Kelly's mental health is faulty, don't know what the clinical name for it might be but the woman is not right in the head and I'm not sure she wouldn't hurt herself or someone else.

I'm shocked that Kelly doesn't have a loved one or friend (although LuAnn said she doesn't have friends) that hasn't made sure she gets professional help.

Like the others have said I watch RHNY not solely for Kelly, right now I'm most interested in Sonja.

I Haven't seen LuAnn making a big deal about being called Countess....has she given that title up, anyone know.

I watched most of season 1 of the NJ version and stopped watching towards the end. I don't care for any of those women and Danielle is messed up but Kelly is mentally ill.

Lil, I think we have only had scenes where LuAnn was interacting with the other housewives so no opportunity to mention legitimately that she is a Countess.
Even the scene at Sonja's had them interacting mainly with the housewives and Simon.

The guy who produced Luann's song kept calling her "countess." So yes, we've had episodes where she's waved that title around.
