Welcome to the recap for Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 9. Last week, Audrey questioned if Chris was really into her or just another Fboy. She also made up with Angelica, who surprisingly didn’t mention Chris and Jason’s risqué OnlyFans video. However, Angelica did tell Shayne, who didn’t buy her incestuous claims. Meanwhile, the group all came together to help Venus get his groove back. But how long would this peace last? Here’s exactly what went down in Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 9: “Rosé All Day.”

What happened in Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 9?

The trip to Paso Robles concluded with Angelica dropping a bomb to the group about Jason and Chris’ allegedly incestuous OnlyFans video. This prompted the cousins to go to war with Angelica, which she quickly lost once the video was proven to be clickbait, and Angelica admitted she never even watched it. This also caused a ripple effect with Angelica’s relationship to Shayne when Shayne decided she wasn’t worth the drama and dumped her. But Angelica wasn’t giving up just yet. 

Natalie and Kim have a breakthrough

Venus still couldn’t believe what happened the previous night. In his confessional he shared, “Last night was fucking wild. I swapped saliva with all of these bitches … Then Natalie and Jason hooked up. And of course, Shayne had to share some disturbing shit from his past.” 

Cut to Shayne saying, “I lost my virginity in a sewer.” When asked how he even got there, Shayne replied, “You know, storm drains.” The group all went, “Ohhhhh.”

But it was a new day and time to regroup. So the boys got ready and started to play around with Jason’s giant dildo, as one does on vacation. And of course, it had to be Angelica to be the one to walk in on them. 

After that fiasco, they all hopped onto the party bus to head to Daou Vineyards. Audrey was wowed by the view and hoped this would inspire Chris to be more romantic. The man was just tossing around a giant dildo; good luck with that. 

Ding, ding, ding! Natalie had an announcement as they all chowed down on cheese and oysters. She was happy to see Marcus and Venus connecting again. Audrey chimed in it was nice to see Demy, Natalie, and Kim getting along too. Kim said, “I know that it takes me maybe longer, so I apologize to you, Natalie, for harboring for a little too long. I do love you.”

Jason said, “Work, to me, has been a little stressful. I’m not the best server…” Demy said, “No! Who told you that?” Everyone lost it. However, Jason regrouped and told Angelica he hoped they could move on. But that peace offering was short-lived once they took a group photo and Angelica told Jason, “Squat next to me, you little small man.” 

Lisa celebrates World Dog Day

While all the shenanigans were going on in wine country, Lisa was celebrating World Dog Day in West Hollywood. And good old Tom Schwartz made a guest appearance. Lisa was proud of the work they did and mentioned they’ve saved thousands of dogs. She added, “I know the name of every dog in the street that walks up and down. I have no idea who the owners are because I never look up.” Same, Lisa, same. 

Back on the party bus, Audrey accidentally spilled red wine all over Natalie’s dress. Demy said, “It’s giving murder … which I love.” She really is Wednesday Addams, and I am here for it. 

As they toured the grounds of the next winery, Jason planned Angelica’s demise. Chris said in his confessional, “At this point it’s very clear that Angelica is just trying to get a reaction out of Jason. I think right now he should just ignore it because who gives a f*ck what she thinks anyway?”

But Jason did give a f*ck. After everyone sat down to eat, he interrupted Angelica who was informing Shayne she was going to get a boob job, and called her out. Angelica said her comment was meant to be “endearing.” Jason countered, “Well, if I said something to you, ‘Give me a hug, little tits,’ I don’t think anyone would like that.” 

Angelica claimed she was hurt by his lack of communication and was dealing with a lot from her breakup. Jason didn’t care; he was miffed by her constant judging of his career. Angelica gasped, “I don’t judge you for anything.” Demy gave her side-eye and told Angelica to own up to what she’s been saying. Here we go…

Angelica’s claims about the cousins fell flat

Angelica brought up Jason and Chris’ OnlyFans video. She told Jason, “I had read something. It was a description of you and your cousin doing things that, in my opinion, would have deemed as incestuous.” However, her credibility was immediately squashed when she added, “I didn’t watch the video; I can’t confirm it.”

Chris and Jason explained the description is to get you to click on the video. Which is just them getting massaged and showering each other’s backs. Jason said, “Big whoop.” Angelica then tried to blame it on Jason for not telling her about this after their first date.

Marcus told Angelica she and Jason had a moment, it went sour, and now she was trying to embarrass him. Venus agreed and called the incestuous comment “character assassination.” She ran to Shayne for comfort, but he ditched her to avoid her drama and play video games instead. 

Meanwhile, Demy confirmed to a now worried Audrey that she did see the video. She said, “There was a massage table; they were taking turns massaging each other, basically.”

Angelica came back and said she didn’t like Jason “because it was incestuous.” Audrey shouted, “You don’t even know what the word ‘incestuous’ pertains to; it’s f*cking weird.” Demy then came at Angelica and told her she had a lot to say when they were alone but not so much in public, and she wasn’t a fan of that.

As they all got back on the party bus, Angelica broke down in tears after being confronted by everyone. Oddly enough it was Audrey who comforted her, while Angelica complained about Shayne not comforting her … as Shayne literally sat right next to her.

The waterworks continued back at the house. But this time a topless Natalie comforted Angelica. Natalie said in her confessional, “Maybe Jason and Shayne are just a distraction from Angelica really feeling a lot of pain about this breakup. I’ve been there; I’ve done it. She should really go to therapy.”

Then Shayne came in and ended things in the most gentle way possible. Fboys, take note! He said, “Everything that just happened made me think, where are we headed? I feel you getting romantic with me is a really bad idea. And I don’t want to do that because you know what my lifestyle is like.”

Angelica played it cool, but she was already plotting how to win him back. And she didn’t wait long as she jumped into the hot tub where Shayne was after he told everyone he just ended things with her. Awkward…

In his confessional, Shayne said, “I am aware of these tricks. So I am genuinely concerned I’m going to have to break up again with her in the morning.”

Meanwhile, even though Audrey seemed okay with what went down, she really wasn’t. She told Chris all was well, but she couldn’t stop wondering what had happened in that video. Her ignorance-is-bliss strategy was now shot.

The next morning, Shayne showed Chris texts Angelica had sent him. She wrote, “Why did you lock your door last night?” Then, “U up?” Chris predicted Shayne had a stage five clinger on his hands. Looks like breakup number two was right around the corner. 

Vanderpump Rules airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

Vanderpump Rules star Shayne Davis just wanted a casual fling with Angelica Jensen. However, things started to move at warp speed, much to Shayne’s dismay. During the cast trip to Paso Robles, Shayne somewhat enjoyed playing “boyfriend girlfriend” even though he had told Angelica he didn’t want anything serious. But then a series of events happened that made Shayne look at Angelica in a different light, and he ended their relationship. So, what made Shayne call it quits with Angelica?

Why Pump Rules newbies Shayne and Angelica split

Shayne and Angelica got off to a rocky start when she ditched Jason Cohen and literally made out with Shayne five minutes later. While Jason wasn’t upset with Shayne, he was upset at Angelica for telling the world about his penis pump

Angelica then took it a step further and claimed Jason was in an “incestuous” OnlyFans video with his cousin, Chris Hahn. When Angelica told Shayne, he didn’t believe it. And he advised her not to spread that around. 

However, during Season 12, Episode 9, Angelica spilled the tea to the group. And everyone turned against her once she admitted she never even watched it. 

Angelica blamed her bad behavior on her breakup. This series of events made Shayne rethink things with Angelica. In his confessional, he said, “In a perfect world, I thought I could be a fun guy she could kick it with while she’s getting over this breakup. And that she would like me enough to stop the warfare with Jason, and then it exploded.”

So, he sat Angelica down and broke it off. Shayne said, “Everything that just happened made me think, where are we headed? I feel you getting romantic with me is a really bad idea. And I don’t want to do that because you know what my lifestyle is like.”

Angelica pretended like she was cool with it but then followed him around afterwards. Shayne observed, “I am aware of these tricks. So, I am genuinely concerned I’m going to have to break up again with her in the morning.”

Vanderpump Rules airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

Summer House - Season 10 Kyle and Amanda Batula

Welcome to the recap for Summer House Season 10, Episode 1, the premiere! Last season, Ciara was at odds with both West and Jesse (let’s put #toegate firmly behind us), and Amanda and Kyle had babies on the brain. Meanwhile, Lindsay surprised everyone with the announcement she was preggers. And Paige surprised everyone by saying goodbye to Craig and leaving the show. So, what drama does the crew have in store for us this time around? Here’s exactly what went down in Summer House Season 10, Episode 1: “Red, White, and Nude.”

What happened in Summer House Season 10, Episode 1?

The tenth season kicked off with a lot of newbies, and the OGs approved of their vibe. However, the main theme of the episode was the enormous tension between Kyle and Amanda. And this left their friends concerned. Still, some relationships were on the mend, like Ciara and West’s. Ciara was planning to live the motto: summer should be fun! And even though the Bed Bugs were down a member, they happily accepted Jesse into the fold.

We are back! Didn’t you all miss the oddly specific times on this show? We started on Thursday, July 3, 12:38pm, to be exact. And right out of the gate Amanda and Kyle were at odds, with Amanda wanting to ride up to the Hamptons with Ciara instead. Amanda quipped, “He’s so distraught I chose to drive out with different people.” 

They also picked up two newbies, Bailey, an influencer (not to be confused with last season’s Bailee), and her bestie, Levi, an event planner. They explained they met on Instagram, and it was love at first sight. Amanda then lamented about Kyle being a DJ. 

Cut to five weeks earlier. She told Ciara, “I wanted him to stop going out and partying, and he found a career where he goes out late and parties. And I’m like, ‘Should I be mad about this?’” 

Meanwhile, Kyle rode up with Carl and Jesse. Carl was hoping to room on the first floor to “get in the mix,” while Jesse was open to rooming again with West. What he wouldn’t do, however, was come in hot with another girl again. We shall see.

West drove up with newbie, KJ, who is a model and professional skateboarder. And he’s from West’s home state of Missouri. West described KJ as “very mild mannered, and then around three to four tequila sodas, he’ll throw his grill in, flip his hat backwards, and start to rage.”

Although KJ didn’t seem like he was going to rage anytime soon. He noted that he just survived getting his heart broken. West advised him not to date someone from the house. He was still clearly shaken from Ciara’s Traitors-style takedown of him last season. 

Jesse was an honorary Bed Bug

The time-honored tradition of a janky front door was no more. The ladies opened it with ease. Ciara cheered, “To the first weekend of the summer of y’all’s lives.”

West grabbed some liquid courage before wandering over to Ciara. However, Ciara had different plans this season. She said in her confessional, “My goal is for the summer is I’m not going to eat him alive. I’m working on being less rigid; I’m working on being less of a b*tch.”

Soon after, the rest of the guys showed up, but no one had grabbed the luggage the ladies left out in the driveway. Kyle said it was about to start raining, so they should bring it in. When Ciara looked at him to do it, Kyle scoffed. 

Ciara said in her confessional, “Kyle is my friend. But I don’t like when I hear things from Amanda about how she’s being treated, and then I have to sit there and smile and giggle in your face knowing these things, but I can’t get involved because it’s not my marriage.”

Everyone then ran around to pick their rooms. Carl got his wish for the first-floor bedroom and happily saged away. He was living his best life and finally felt like “a real human being.”

Ciara and Jesse then caught up in his room. The two shared it was weird without Paige around. Jesse said, “She’ll be hard to replace, but I’ll gossip with you and Amanda.” Ciara noted he could be part of the “Gossip Girls,” but he’d have to keep his mouth shut. 

Jesse was just happy to be included and that Ciara was planning to have positive vibes towards his bestie, West.

Bailey got dumped at the salad bar

The first meal of the season was some fancy pizza and salad. Carl cheered; they were all single, minus Kyle and Amanda. Amanda brought up that Kyle lost his wedding ring, so she wasn’t going to wear hers until he found it. Jesse joked, “It’s okay, you guys can cosplay as single.”

And speaking of troubled relationships, Levi shared she just got out of a toxic twelve-year one. Bailey chimed in that she was recently dumped at a Sweetgreen. Amanda gasped, “Not at Sweetgreen!” Bailey started crying as she told the story of how her boyfriend jetted off to LA. The worst part of it all was she had bought him the most expensive salad to boot. 

Bailey changed subjects to Kyle being a DJ. The tension continued when Amanda said Kyle chose that career just to “spite” her. As Kyle talked about the joys of DJing, Amanda whispered to Ciara, “I love how he’s spinning this. No pun intended.” 

It was now time to go and party, which meant Amanda and Ciara headed straight to bed. Jesse hopped in with them, and even West tried to join. Amanda asked why he was hanging with them instead of the new girls. West responded, “Because they are crying.”

Meanwhile, Kyle complained about Amanda in his room. He said, “Every summer Amanda just makes me feel like I don’t exist.” Kyle shared in his confessional he hoped to rekindle things with her this summer, but that didn’t seem to be a possibility. 

After everyone left, Amanda told Ciara about her issues with Kyle. She said, “He finishes his set, he hangs out with the owners, he goes out with fans.” She added she was numb to the cheating rumors. And that scared her. 

Carl was concerned about Kyle

The next day was the Fourth of July, and it was time for West’s county fair-themed party. But first, the last newbie arrived. Kyle and Amanda’s friend Ben wandered in. West screamed, “He’s so handsome!” Ben gave warm hugs all around. 

Amanda explained they met him at their friend’s wedding in Italy, and she was skinny dipping. Jesse said, “You’ve seen Amanda’s boobs? I’ve never even seen them.” Kyle was not amused.

Carl caught up with Ciara and shared in another place and time they would be a happy couple. He dished he really wanted to have a family and didn’t want it to happen when he was ninety. Ciara joked he wasn’t as old as Kyle, although Kyle did not act his age. 

Carl agreed and said he only got to spend time with Kyle if he went to one of his shows. He also expressed concern about Kyle’s relationship with Amanda. Why was he out DJing at a college on a Thursday night? 

He said in his confessional, “This kind of other life that he’s been leading the last twelve months, which is like DJing and hosting these parties, isn’t aligned with what should be going on in his life. Which is really committing to his wife, getting back to kind of a good foundation in his relationship, and planning for a future in that relationship.” 

The worrying was put on hold because it was time to set up for the party. There was going to be a pie-eating contest, kissing booth, and petting zoo. Amanda decided to chill with Ben and Ciara instead and informed Ciara that Ben was on the Australian version of The Bachelor. As they caught up, the vibes were definitely vibing between Ben and Amanda. 

Kyle was worried he couldn’t make Amanda happy

The Fourth of July party was in full swing. Ciara’s favorite part was the petting zoo, and she noted West must have done it for her. She told Jesse, “Intentional or not, it’s a great peace offering.”

Ciara then caught up with Amanda. They were missing Lindsay, so they FaceTimed her, and she was happily playing with her daughter. This led Ciara to ask Amanda if she still wanted kids. She did but said Kyle’s DJing made it so he was never home. 

Amanda said, “I’m like you’re putting yourself in compromising situations where people are assuming the worst. To be completely honest with you, I think something that’s really tough for me is when the whole internet is rooting for our divorce.”

Meanwhile, Carl checked in on Kyle and asked if he was happy. Kyle said he was happy “showing people a good time, pressing play.” When he asked if he thought Amanda was happy, Kyle responded, “I don’t know what’s going to make her happy. But I don’t know if I can do it. When I actually say it out loud, it becomes a little more real, and it scares me.”

After the serious discussions, Ciara started a pie fight by throwing one in West’s face. But Amanda started a fight of her own when she “skinny dipped” in the pool with see-through underwear on. Kyle was livid and told her she was “absurd.” It was going to be a long summer for those two.

Summer House airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

It was news that broke the internet. Another big split happened on Summer House, and this time it was Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula. So, of course, Amanda and Kyle’s relationship was going to be a focal point of the new season. And Amanda and Kyle jump right in and get down to the nitty-gritty, discussing their problems during the Season 10 premiere.

When Kyle and Amanda announced their separation, they posted it was a mutual decision. And during the Season 10, Episode 1, it was obvious both Amanda and Kyle were having issues in their relationship. 

Their besties, Ciara Miller and Carl Radke, picked up on their tension and pulled them aside to check in on them during the Fourth of July party. Ciara sat with Amanda and wondered if she still wanted to have kids

Amanda did, but Kyle being gone all the time DJing was a point of contention. She said, “I’m like you’re putting yourself in compromising situations where people are assuming the worst. To be completely honest with you, I think something that’s really tough for me is when the whole internet is rooting for our divorce. ‘You should get a divorce, leave him, leave him.’” 

She added, “Like that’s all I hear all the time. And it’s like when someone tells you something so many times you start to believe it. I’m at a point right now where I don’t know is it my thoughts or the internet’s thoughts.”

Meanwhile, Carl checked in on Kyle. He felt Kyle and Amanda were drifting apart, and he wondered if Kyle was happy. Kyle said he was happy “showing people a good time, pressing play.” 

When asked if he thought Amanda was happy, Kyle said, “I don’t know what’s going to make her happy. But I don’t know if I can do it. When I actually say it out loud, it becomes a little more real, and it scares me.”

Summer House airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

It’s time to get excited, Top Chef fans! Very soon we’ll hear the familiar phrase “pack your knives and go.” Season 23 will kick off down south in the Carolinas, where the cheftestants will have to work with ingredients like sweet potatoes, livermush, and Carolina Reaper peppers. And I’m sure Tom Colicchio will be eating plenty of his not-so-favorite vegetable: okra. Check out the trailer below to see what’s in store!

Top Chef Season 23 heads to the Carolinas

Our favorite trio of judges are back again for Top Chef Season 23. Kristen Kish, Tom, and Gail Simmons will judge the cheftestants as per usual. And this time they are all headed to the Carolinas

Specifically, they will be filming in Charlotte, North Carolina, and a few episodes sprinkled in Greenville, South Carolina, for good measure. Gotta get those Southern Charm folks to judge, after all.

There will be a hefty $250,000 grand prize provided by Graza Olive Oil. And along the way they can also win immunity, advantages, or cash prizes, with more than $150,000 up for grabs. Not a bad day’s work. 

It seems they are also hoping to recreate the magic of past brother cheftestants Bryan Voltaggio and Michael Voltaggio by casting twin brothers Jonathan Dearden and Brandon Dearden. And for the first time ever, they casted a pair of life partners who co-own and operate their own restaurant: Jennifer Lee Jackson and Justin Tootla.  

Here is the complete list of cheftestants:

  • Sieger Bayer – Chicago, IL
  • Jassi Bindra – Houston, TX
  • Sherry Cardoso – Brooklyn, NY
  • Brittany Cochran – Charlotte, NC
  • Oscar Diaz – Durham, NC
  • Brandon Dearden – Hamilton, MT
  • Jonathan Dearden – Alexandria, VA
  • Duyen Ha – Los Angeles, CA
  • Jennifer Lee Jackson – Suttons Bay, MI/Detroit, MI
  • Anthony Jones – Alexandria, VA

  • Laurence Louie – Quincy, MA
  • Rhoda Magbitang – Kailua-Kona, HI
  • Justin Tootla – Suttons Bay, MI/Detroit, MI
  • Nana Araba Wilmot – Cherry Hill, NJ

Fans can get a sneak peek of the first episode on March 3rd on Peacock, Bravo’s YouTube channel, and VOD. Get your popcorn ready!

Top Chef Season 23 premieres Monday, March 9, at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

Vanderpump Rules star Shayne Davis has no problem being open about his life. Being candid seems to be part of his charm. However, when he opened up to Angelica Jensen about how he learned to please women, she started having second thoughts. Did Shayne take it one step too far this time?

Shayne has had no problem discussing major things that have happened to him. During his date with Natalie Maguire, he discussed being shot several times defending his friend. He also talked about his struggles with staying sober. And this time, he opened up to Angelica about an encounter with his cousin’s girlfriend.

It all started when Angelica pulled Shayne aside to tell him the latest “incestuous” gossip about cousins Jason Cohen and Chris Hahn and their OnlyFans video.

Angelica told Shayne, “Jason and Chris, naked, oiling each other up. Spreading their butts open?”

Shayne didn’t believe that to be true. He said in his confessional, “Angelica’s making it sound like these two dudes are splitting each other open, and I just don’t believe that. But either way, once I found out how much money these guys are making, I was like, ‘You can do whatever the hell you want to do.’ Make your money.”

He told Angelica he had a crazy encounter with a cousin of his own. Shayne said his cousin “brought in his girlfriend to teach him how to make women squirt.” I guess this must be one of his secrets on how he gets women?

Shayne reasoned, “What I’m saying is, this is all sounding really bad; there was nothing incestuous between me and my cousin.” The message was lost on Angelica as she was shook. Still, she wasn’t ready to ditch Shayne just yet. 

Vanderpump Rules airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

Welcome to the recap for Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 8. Last week, Lisa celebrated the 20th anniversary of SUR with a big blowout. But the bigger blowout was between Kim and Natalie. Kim had had enough of Natalie talking to Marcus about their relationship. So, the two went at it in front of the guests, much to Lisa’s dismay. Later on, the group headed out to Lisa’s wine event, where Angelica stirred things up by sharing a scandalous OnlyFans video of Jason and Chris. What would happen once word got out to the rest of the group? Here’s exactly what went down in Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 8: “Speakerphone Suckerpunch.”

Lisa’s Women in Wine event went off without a hitch, but things didn’t go as smoothly behind the scenes. Audrey overheard a phone call where Jason’s brother told Chris they were going to “f*ck mad bitches” while in Bali. This left Audrey wondering if Chris was really into her or just a Fboy. Meanwhile, Shayne kept being honest with Angelica; he was indeed an Fboy, but she still couldn’t get visions of marriage out of her head. And Venus had a flirtatious encounter, which reunited the group by helping Venus get his groove back. However, the peace was short-lived once news of Jason and Chris’s risqué OnlyFans video broke.

Demy was still shook from watching Chris and Jason’s OnlyFans video. And it didn’t help matters for her when Venus pulled out an eggplant emoji pool float for Jason, or when Jason told her to add more oil to the mushrooms while she cooked. 

Angelica was also still in her feels. She said in her confessional, “I think I dodged a weird incestuous bullet.” But then she went and talked with Shayne in the hot tub, and things weren’t much better with him. 

Angelica immediately told Shayne about Jason and Chris’ video. She explained, “Jason and Chris, naked, oiling each other up. Spreading their butts open?” Shayne rolled his eyes in disbelief. 

In his confessional, Shayne said, “Angelica’s making it sound like these two dudes are splitting each other open, and I just don’t believe that. But either way, once I found out how much money these guys are making, I was like, ‘You can do whatever the hell you want to do.’ Make your money.” 

Shayne responded by again being way too open about himself. He proceeded to tell Angelica a story about how his cousin brought in his girlfriend to teach him how to “make women squirt.” Angelica said in her confessional, “Did I really just dodge one incestuous man just to land in the arms of another?” 

However, there was a point to his story. Shayne said, “What I’m saying is, this is all sounding really bad; there was nothing incestuous between me and my cousin.” Angelica reasoned that at least he wasn’t lubing his cousin up. 

Shayne shared in his confessional, “I don’t think Angelica understands the consequences of spreading rumors and how it is gonna backfire on her. Because they’re pretty cool with everybody. So, you’re going to make enemies.”

After Angelica left the hot tub, the rest of the group hopped in. Natalie decided to throw herself a pity party about how Demy and Kim wouldn’t forgive her. 

Natalie wished they could go back and start over. She stated, “We’re all upset with each other because we’re all hurt by each other. So, why can’t we just drop it and start fresh?” 

As Jason sang Natalie’s praises, Marcus wandered over. Marcus started to get choked up about his falling out with Venus. Venus just quietly observed. He knew it was still too early to be besties again.

After dinner, Natalie was over the moon that Jason had validated her feelings and gave him a hug. But once that happened, Jason wondered if there could be something more than friendship between them. His feelings would have to wait, though, because it was time for the obligatory VPR skinny dipping scene.

The next morning, Audrey decided to make amends with Angelica. Although she wouldn’t trust her with information again, she didn’t want to hold a grudge. Surprisingly, Angelica decided not to tell Audrey about Chris and Jason’s OnlyFans video. Maybe she learned her lesson after the penis pump debacle? Nah.

But Chris put himself into the doghouse with Audrey anyway. As Audrey got ready in their room, Chris chatted with Jason’s brother on speakerphone about their upcoming Bali trip. He told Chris, “Yo, we’re gonna f*ck mad bitches.” To which Audrey promptly gave side-eye while she contoured her face. 

In her confessional, Audrey wondered, “It’s making me question everything … Maybe Chris just acts like he would be in a relationship with you, but really he’s a f*ck boy.”

Audrey gave Chris the cold shoulder

After that mishap, Audrey ignored Chris on their way up to Lisa’s wine event. And their conversation would have to wait because it was time to get down to business. 

Everyone was hard at work setting up, except for Marcus, who sat down in the shade. But as soon as Lisa and her guests arrived, he stood up … and ran somewhere else to go sit back down in the shade. 

Lisa honored all the guests and gave a toast, to which Chris interrupted to describe the wine they were serving. She smiled through gritted teeth, but Chris and Jason won over the ladies with their charm and bushy eyebrows. Lisa said in her confessional, “That’s verging with the edge of inappropriateness, but we are a naughty, sexy, young brand. And I’ve got my very handsome group of men. It’s also nice for the ladies … Isn’t it?”

While Chris said cheesy lines like, “We’re going to fill up the ladies that need a filling,” Audrey hinted to Natalie that things were over between her and Chris. 

Meanwhile, Shayne enjoyed the peace and quiet back at the house. He got some sun by the pool and practiced his Wim Hof. But once his activities turned into taking out the trash, he was bored. But soon everyone came back to the house.

Chris and Audrey finally chatted about that phone call. In her confessional, Audrey shared she self-sabotaged relationships by digging around. But she noted that this time, “the red flag appeared in front of my face.” 

However, Chris won her back over. He said, “I wouldn’t be here with you if I didn’t like you as much as I do.” All was forgiven for now. But how would Audrey feel once she found out about the video?

Later on, Venus had everyone play a game where they asked a question and squirted the person who was the answer with a water gun. Marcus got picked for not handling his alcohol, Demy had the most secrets, and Shayne was voted for being both hot and funny. 

Everyone then went downtown to wander the farmers market and bar hop. And Venus felt like he was on a couples trip. Marcus and Kim were back together, as were Chris and Audrey. And a potential new couple was in the works between Natalie and Jason. 

Shayne even enjoyed playing girlfriend with Angelica. He stated in his confessional, “Even though I told her I don’t want to do something serious, it’s really hard to say, ‘Hey, pump the brakes.’” And Angelica had finally found someone over six feet tall and was going to see this through no matter what. 

Venus got his time to shine when a rando named Kevin started flirting with him. After he left, Marcus told Venus he had invited Kevin to join them. Venus had been out of the game so long that everyone helped him get his groove back by all making out with him. 

It was never revealed if Kevin came back, but that moment brought everyone together, literally. Venus wondered, “How could we ever fight again knowing we’ve had our tongues down each other’s throat?” 

Cut to 17 hours later … and news of Jason and Chris’ OnlyFans video broke. Their kumbaya moment was officially over.

Vanderpump Rules airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.

Season 6 of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City was dominated by the troubles in Bronwyn Newport’s marriage to Todd Bradley. It seemed like every episode there was a new rumor of Todd cheating, much to Bronwyn’s dismay. However, news soon hit that the couple had called it quits. During part three of the reunion, Bronwyn spilled the tea as to why she made the drastic decision to separate from Todd.

It was a tough season for Bronwyn. Todd had allegedly gotten caught looking at other women on his iPad while on a plane. On top of that, Angie Katsanevas told the rumor Lisa Barlow had shared that Todd was caught making out with her friend and farting the entire time. Yikes.

So, it comes as no surprise when Bronwyn released a statement that they had separated. But the exact reasons why weren’t shared.

However, Bronwyn decided to spill the tea to Andy Cohen during part three of the Season 6 reunion. She stated, “This year was so hard for me. I watched myself in some of those conversations saying things I don’t think I meant. Like when I was like, ‘If you want it to be open, of course I’d try it.’ I don’t really know if I’m up for that. It was like something I was wanting to be up for if I needed to.” 

Bronwyn added when she told Todd it was helpful when she talked to Whitney Rose about what they were going through Todd had told her, “Well, you shouldn’t be talking to anybody about this.” 

And this made her feel isolated. She said, “And if I can’t talk about them, to him, to anybody else, it was like I just had to deal with it. We weren’t working forward anymore, we weren’t a team anymore. I was just like PR for him.” 

As for Todd’s reaction to all this, Bronwyn said, “I feel like he doesn’t really understand why we are in this position.”

Welcome to the recap for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 19, the last episode of the season! Last week, Andy Cohen unraveled Angie’s scroll with the receipts, proof, timeline, screenshots allegedly proving Lisa was the leaker. However, Baby Gorgeous brushed it off and called it a “prop flop” instead. Meanwhile, Meredith and Britani’s feud was reignited when Meredith claimed Britani was a bigot, which prompted Britani to storm off the stage. Will anyone be able to make amends? Here’s exactly what went down in Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 19: “Reunion Part 3.”

What happened in Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 19?

Bronwyn opened up to the group as to why she decided to separate from her husband, Todd. This reveal led Whitney to walk off the stage, upset about the struggles in her own marriage. Meanwhile, the theme of Meredith against the group continued with her going head to head against all but Lisa. Even so, Meredith was able to turn her friendships around with both Heather and Bronwyn. Progress!

Britani’s big moment was a bust

We started where we left off, with Britani in tears running off the stage because Meredith called her a bigot. Angie said, “This is how we found her on the plane … so when someone is this devastated, it’s hard not to have compassion.” Meredith countered, “Did I pull her hair and dump wine on her? Or did I just call out her bad behavior?”

Andy brought the conversation back to the plane ride and asked Meredith how she felt when Mary pulled her aside to talk about it. As Mary and Meredith chatted, Britani suddenly wandered back out. 

Ding, ding, ding! She had an announcement. Britani interrupted Mary and stated to Meredith that she had apologized for her post. When Mary and Meredith both sighed, Britani said, “Shut up! We squashed it back then; we’re done.” 

Britani’s dramatic moment was immediately brushed aside when everyone turned their backs to her and Andy told Meredith and Mary to keep talking. Britani can’t catch a break, can she?

Lisa chimed in that she felt the group was ganging up on Meredith. And she understood how that felt because that’s what happened to her when Heather “falsely” accused her of being the leaker. Heather said, “You weren’t falsely accused. I accused you of what I felt is true, and I still believe it’s true.” 

Andy pivoted and asked Whitney why she called Meredith a pill popper. Whitney explained that was out of frustration because Meredith had called her a liar about what happened on the plane. This segment then turned into the Spiderman finger-pointing meme where they were all pointing at each other as to who actually popped pills.

However, Whitney said to Meredith, “Do I think you have a problem? No.”

Andy gives a shout-out to the group

After Whitney apologized, Andy asked if Meredith wanted to take any accountability for what happened on the plane. Meredith said the same thing as before; she didn’t mean to hurt Britani’s feelings, and it was the wrong time and place to vent. Andy responded, “So, nothing new that you haven’t said before?” The shade!

That tense moment then gave way to Andy thanking the group for being so vulnerable on the show, which is why it was so successful. He also gave a shout-out to them as mothers, which was sweet. Everyone then gave some quick updates on what was going on in their lives.

Whitney was back to owning her beauty line. As she went on about how things were better for her and Justin, Andy called out Mary for closing her eyes. Well, it is a long day after all. 

Britani was asked how her daughter Olivia felt about her bringing Jared to BravoCon. Britani shared, “She wasn’t happy. It’s this real interesting dance that we’re playing of, ‘I need my life,’ and she needs to feel she’s my number one priority.” 

Andy then asked Lisa if John had wanted to embarrass her on TV like Todd did to Bronwyn. Bronwyn catching strays! 

Lisa said she did feel undervalued, but despite what people think, she was listening to John. She explained, “The bottom line is he knows damn well that I really work hard on listening to him. And I think for me it felt really jabby for him to say that when he knows I work really hard to listen to him.” 

Then Mary dropped a truth bomb. She stated, “If your husband tells you you’re not a good listener, then that means you’re not.” Time to grab the popcorn!

Bronwyn admits she and Todd are separated

It was now Bronwyn’s time to shine. She had a heck of a season with a challenging relationship with her mother and trying to keep things together with Todd. Who could forget Muzzy telling Bronwyn she was an “oopsie” or Todd stealing the cherry off her sundae?

Although it seemed things were better with her mom on the show, once her Muzzy actually saw it things went south again. The backlash was all a bit too much. Bronwyn said, “I think she felt like the whole world was turning on her, and I think she blames me a little bit for that.”

Another person who had trouble with the show was Todd. And this was when Bronwyn dropped the bomb. She told Andy that they were separated. Bronwyn said she made the decision because she felt like they weren’t moving forward anymore. 

She shared that Todd didn’t want her talking to anyone on the show about their relationship. Bronwyn stated, “We’re at a place where it’s not just me forgiving him or understanding him or trying to move forward. He’s now saying he doesn’t want to talk about it, I can’t talk about it to my friends. I started to feel isolated around the choices he was making.”

Heather wondered if Todd wanted her to quit the show. Bronwyn admitted that he never said that, but if she stayed on the show and with him, the cracks in their relationship would continue to be magnified. She noted, “We weren’t working forward anymore; we weren’t a team anymore. I was just like PR for him.”

Regarding Todd’s reaction to all this, Bronwyn stated, “I feel like he doesn’t really understand why we are in this position.” And therein lies the problem.

Whitney walked off the stage

Bronwyn’s story hit home for Whitney. She said, “I’m on the reverse of Bronwyn. I’m the one that feels like I always f*ck up … Justin’s the most incredible husband … and I’m the one on the show that’s always f*cking it up.” 

We then got the third walk off of the reunion when Whitney left the stage to go and find Justin. For his part, Justin comforted Whitney and reminded her to stay strong, and it was a nice moment between the two. 

Back on the stage, Bronwyn dished more about Todd. She said, “The worst thing for Todd, he said, was watching the show. He said, ‘Do you feel like I never look at you when I talk to you? He says, ‘Do you feel like me taking the cherry was like this huge…’” Heather interrupted and said what we all felt, “Yes, taking the cherry was a huge thing.”   

Bronwyn admitted, “We were growing in different directions, and the show put a spotlight on that. I think as hard as this is right now this conversation with Todd needed to happen. The show didn’t cause this. It might have sped it up.” 

After Heather and Meredith somewhat made up, it was back onto Whitney and Meredith fighting. This time Whitney was mad that Meredith talked poorly about production. It was odd to say the least.

The conversation then turned to Meredith getting upset about not being able to talk to Brooks on Mother’s Day. Whitney thought Meredith used that as an excuse to get out of the hot seat. Then the substance abuse allegations came right back up. 

Whitney apologized to Meredith for the accusations and hopefully wouldn’t walk it back again. But then Bronwyn added in her two cents.

Bronwyn said during the lunch with Whitney and Mary, there were zero accusations. She said, “None of us were saying you were an addict, you have mental health struggles, you have cheating in your marriage.” Were we watching the same episode

Meredith countered she’s never said anything about Todd, so why was Bronwyn going on about Seth? Bronwyn denied she did that and turned it around that Meredith didn’t defend her when Lisa went after Todd. 

She also felt Meredith only wanted to have conversations off camera so there would be no proof. Bronwyn said, “It feels like you do stuff off camera so when it comes up on camera, you can say, ‘That’s not what I said, that’s not what happened, and no one can prove it.’” 

Meredith admitted she did want to talk to Heather one-on-one. She said, “I wanted to get resolution, and every time I tried to in the group, everyone was yelling and screaming, and I couldn’t.” For her part, Meredith apologized to Bronwyn, and she accepted. But the two had a long way to go.

Meanwhile, Angie and Lisa admitted their friendship was like being on a hamster wheel. Angie felt Lisa’s “expectations were unreal.” Still, they both agreed they wanted to move forward. 

Andy ended with the group sharing what they learned. Heather concluded, “The best moments of my life have been with you guys … and some of the darkest moments of my life. And that is pretty remarkable.” And here’s to having more of the best moments with this group in Season 7!

There’s a new “Reza” in town on Bravo, and he is single and ready to mingle! The Valley: Persian Style not only stars Shahs of Sunset alum Reza Farhan but also newbie Reza Jackson. And that newbie is on the prowl looking for a wife … sort of. Reza’s looking to change his Fboy ways, for the right person, that is. And he dished on what kind of special someone he was looking for on Watch What Happens Live

The Valley: Persian Style’s Reza Jackson talks dating on WWHL

Reza didn’t waste any time sharing his love life on The Valley: Persian Style. He was set up with a girl named Sofia, who just happened to be Amir Boroumand and his wife Natasha Kashanian’s neighbor. Amir and Natasha hosted a “Persian Night,” and when Reza and Sofia met, the fireworks between them were on full display. 

However, when the two had a date alone, that’s when things went south. Sofia cut to the chase and asked if Reza was serious, or was he just an Fboy. When Reza paused before his response, she knew the answer and was dunzo. 

So, the search continued. Reza mused Golnesa Gharachedaghi could be an option; however, GG just laughed him off. 

But what kind of girl is Reza looking for? He spilled all the tea to Andy Cohen on WWHL. Reza told Andy he was looking for a “brunette” that was “ideally shorter than me.” Andy wondered if he cared if they were Persian or not. 

Reza said, “There’s a part of me that wants them to be Persian. But the bigger part of it is being cultured.” He noted that he would like someone who was able to speak Farsi so they could gossip with his mom. Reza added, “My ideal case scenario would be like someone who’s like me.”

After saying he also hoped they were “ambitious” and had “a passion for something,” Reza joked he wanted them to be “busty.” A little embarrassed, he then clarified, “Curvy.” Andy kept it classy and responded with, “You like titties.” 

The Valley: Persian Style airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.
