I think the big OMG preggers test is coming in an upcoming episode. On the after hours show she mentioned to Andy she was off the charts hormone wise and could not understand why she was so on edge.. then when she found out she was preggers it was like OH!!! She said that taping was during her first few months and it was an emotional roller coaster for her.

Thanks Terolyn. I suspected that she might have known she was preggers but was at the point where, during the first trimester, you don't really announce it. Sounds like that's what was happening here, as I'm pretty sure she did make reference to a bun in the oven. And good gawd but those bosoms were hu-MON-gous!

She actually said all six of us first (miscounting?) and then said four, pointing to herself, Jason, and her two boobs.

Did she point to Jason? I thought she pointed to herself twice, and then her boobs.

I'm a little confused Bethenny says she dislike's Kelly then at the fashion show she was so friendly with her????If I dislike someone as much as these two seemed to,I wouldn't be all kiss's and hugs. Taped Andy Cohen last night because Kelly was on so going to watch it in a bit.I want to see if she's really that much of an airhead.

The Watch What Happens was so good with Patti LaBelle! Kelly was ok but certainly is VERY into herself, and thinks very highly of her "rights" as an American to wear fur!

Mictay, I think Bethenny alluded to the fact that she was going to just try to be civil to all of them. Honestly, I always loved both Bethenny and Jill and loved their silliness together. But I'm seeing Jill as a little backstabber and whiner this season so far. Jill wants to talk about her and Bethenny's "break up" at this gathering, but the second Bethenny said that she left that "get a hobby" phone message after receiving a nasty e-mail she got from Jill, Jill promptly ended the discussion and practically ran away! Bethenny looked so completely shocked. Is it a control issue on Jill's part? Why would she be saving this message for all these months, so she could play it while the show was being taped? There didn't seem to be much discussion about Bethenny not being there for Bobby's illness, so I don't think that played much part in this. Bethenny's life was becoming very busy in love and business, and I think Jill liked having Bethenny available 24/7. Someone else (was it Alex?) said that Jill likes to mother and that now she's taking Luann under her wing. I can't see the trio of Jill, Luann, and Kelly being real solid. I think it's a relationship of convenience, since Ramona is out of the inner circle because of Mario's comment about the Countless. They made it sound like saying "I'm sorry" is all it would take for them to accept Ramona back. Hey, she was 100% right, it's between Mario and Luann, she doesn't have a thing to do with it. Omg, Simon and Alex seemed completely normal last night. We're in bizarro world.

I am sad because I looked forward to watching this and it has become just as drama filled as the other houswives. I agree Huk. It is pretty sad when Alex and Simon seem like the normal ones. I also think that it is rude the way they talk to Alex and Simon about their boys. While I think that their parenting style is a little too laid back, I have boys and when mine were little there were times when they were quite a handful.

I sometimes feel like I watch a different show than others. Jill stopped talking about it because Kelly was telling them it was not the best place to talk about it especially since it seemed to be getting into a heated discussion. I did hear Jill clearly say that Bethany wasn't there for her and Bethany said "I sent you flowers"... if my husband is in the hospital or has been diagnosed with cancer and someone I think of as a true friend doesn't take the time to come see me, just has flowers sent I would be pissed too. Heck when I had my scare this year the company DH worked for sent us a basket of Godiva, and we aren't friends with them! This is how I see it. If Jill is upset about Bethany not being there for her when her husband was sick, I totally agree with her. If it is as Bethany says, and Jill is upset about not getting enough credit for helping Bethany, then Jill needs to let it go. Also, Bethany keeps talking about how Jill is talking to everyone about the situation between them but she is doing the EXACT same thing, so how is it wrong for Jill but right for Bethany? As far as Luann being the underdog now and that is why Jill is friends with her there are two ways to look at it. Either a person does that because they want to feel superior to the other person, or they want to help a person through tough times. Based on the fact that Jill was there for Bethany during tough times and is now with Luann through tough times, I don't think she does it to feel superior. The others do seem to think they are superior to Luann right now since she is getting divorced, which I find disgusting. Ramona and Mario just... ugh are a waste of space. If Ramona is offended by people commenting on her eyes, then she should understand Luann being offended by Mario's comment. All of them can be over the top at times, but some seem to show redeaming qualities here and there.

I think they are both wrong.. but.. and its a big but... If I remember the conversation correctly, Bethany was away in Florida when all the stuff went down with Bobby. Which is supposedly why Bethany sent flowers. However, they are both being stupid and as the, dare I say it, reasonable one Alex seems to be telling Jill she is acting like a mean girl in high school. I think she is, but I also think Bethany is acting stupid too. The End.

Hukd, I think Jill has been very emotional (still hurting) each time she's spoken on-camera about the loss of her friendship with Bethenny and that even though she had done a lot of prep-work in terms of preparing herself to confront Ms. Frankel, that she was just overcome when they actually came face-to-face.

Bethenny teared up as well, after Jill turned her back and walked away. I'm sure we don't know the real story, nor the true story. But I'm tending to fall on the side of Bethenny after watching Jill go to the other housewives and playing that phone message over and over. She acted like it was a shock and out of the blue. Bethenny said she only did it after the nasty e-mail she got from Jill. I don't know who to believe, but I'm leaning one way. It sucks because I loved Jill the last couple of seasons! She clearly isn't the jolly, funny lady she was though.

The thing is, if you aren't all stuck on something, why the heck do you save voice mail messages? I'm not liking Jill this season. The Bethenny spat for one. And the bit with calling Ramona on speakerphone and not telling her that Luann was listening in. Neither act serves her well, and it just makes her look petty and shallow. And Jill was one of my fave HWs in the past. This season I'm seeing a lot of Tamra in her.

You save voice messages so that you can remember. As Jill mentioned every time she wants to call Bethenny, she needs to hear the message to remind herself that B is not a true friend. B sounded really ugly in that message...not friendly at all. I, obviously, am on Team Jill.

I wish Bethenny would share the e-mail Jill sent her that she said prompted her to leave that voicemail. But I think Bethenny has actually moved beyond this crap and is focusing on her career, baby, marriage, and the new show.

We've all had needy girlfriends and I think Jill is needy when it comes to friendships- It's sorta creepy- and Im a big Jill fan. If your friend is off doing stuff without you, especially work and love life stuff-be happy for her. But Bethany burned the bridge with the "get a hobby" comment. It's all rather sad. Hopefully by the end of the season things will mellow between them.

Bethenny is critical of everyone, and her comments are almost always mean-spirited. In the last episode I watched she made a snarky comment about directly to the guy who had the unusual voice. In fact, she went on and on about how unusual his voice was. She wouldn't drop the issue, and it looked like the guy wanted to disappear under a table. I thought it was mean of her.

I'm going to go ahead and take Jill's side in this. Telling a good friend to "get a hobby" is a cold and callous way of dealing with ppl you supposedly care about. Bethanny puts up a lot of walls. She's very tough but motivated--I think she hated being cast as the "single girl down on her luck" when the show started, and had to put up with a lot of unwarranted advice. Now that she's "made it" she's rubbing it in. I don't mind her rubbing it in Luann's face, but not Jill, who I think really would be a true friend to her. Good, successful friendships are as much worth cultivating as a successful career. Hopefully they sort it out.

I am definitely team Jill. I like Bethany but do think she has a tendency to use people. I don't know about any of you but LuAnn is driving me crazy. She is too haughty.

Seems like the past 2 seasons Luann was trying to establish herself as someone very special in society. This year she believes her own bullcrap.

I think the advice Bethenny received was UNWANTED as well as unwarranted. I don't really see her rubbing it in, but I do see that her priorities have changed. As have the demands on her time. When the show first started, she DID have a boyfriend (wasn't his name Jason also)? Then she was single and starting her new business, and that was when Jill really took Bethenny under her wing. Jill does like "helping" people. Which could be smothering. We don't know the whole story about the dispute between J and B. If, in fact, Bethenny was in Florida when Jill's hubby was sick, then sending flowers is an appropriate thing to do. I don't know if Jill expected her to jump on the next plane to NYC or what. And Luann has always believed her own bullcrap. It's just that we no longer do!
