Send us Fan Mail RHOP S12 E2 Recap: Wendy vs. Karen — Who Owes Whom an Apology? RHOP Season 12, Episode 2 — “Sofia Home!” The drama continues on The Real Housewives of Potomac as Tia deals with the fallout from discovering her husband Rob on a dating website. Feeling humiliated and questioning the state of her marriage, Tia opens up about how the situation affects her children, especially her daughter Sienna. Gizelle eventually takes accountability for how she handled the information, apologizing to Tia for not coming directly to her. But with questions about Rob's past behavior still unanswered, the damage to their marriage is far from resolved. Meanwhile, Wendy is navigating her own difficult chapter as she faces an upcoming court hearing. During an emotional visit with her mother, Susan, Wendy reveals how hurt she feels by the lack of support from some of the women, particularly Karen. Although Robyn offers Wendy a chance at a clean slate, tensions remain over whether the group can put their differences aside and support her during this challenging time. Karen plans a celebration called “Sofia Home,” inspired by Oprah Winfrey's character in The Color Purple, to commemorate her return home and entering her “soft era.” But the event quickly becomes a spectacle when the women arrive at a strip-mall wellness center, unsure what to expect. Dressed as Sofia, Karen surprises everyone with a spa-themed gathering featuring beauty treatments, massages, and plenty of shade. From Gizelle's comments about the location to Karen's jokes about the other women's appearances, the event is anything but relaxing. The biggest confrontation erupts when Wendy challenges Karen's claims about wanting to help women who have experienced incarceration. Wendy feels Karen has been a poor friend, especially after bringing up her mother and allegedly kicking her while she was down in New York. Karen fires back that Wendy never showed the group how much she was struggling, while Wendy questions Karen's own accountability and whether she was truly receiving treatment during her time away. Elsewhere, Stacey continues working on her relationship with Thiemo, while Courtney opens up about her marriage, past infidelity, and plans to expand her family. Ashley also attempts to soften her approach with Tia, acknowledging that her previous comments may have hurt her. By the end of the episode, Karen's wellness celebration has turned into a full-blown showdown, Wendy is demanding accountability, and the friendships in Potomac remain as complicated as ever. ✳️Follow us on Social Media✳️ ============================================ 📸 Follow ☑️ Facebook 👉 / https://url-shortener.me/EVFH 🐦 Follow ☑️ TikTok👉 / https://www.tiktok.com/@wewinewhenever? 📸 Follow ☑️ Instagram👉 / https://www.instagram.com/wewinewhenever/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.wewinewhenever.com/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.buzzsprout.com/2236104/support 📺 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://www.youtube.com/@WeWineWhenever?sub_confirmation=1 Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

RHOC S20 E15: Muscle Sandwiches, Matcha & Major Meltdowns

Send us Fan Mail RHOC S20 E15: Muscle Sandwiches, Matcha & Major Meltdowns RHOC S20 E15 – “For Goodness Sake” The Real Housewives of Orange County continue their Japan trip, where unusual excursions, complicated friendships, and emotional confrontations take center stage. Emily surprises the women with a visit to a muscle girl bar, where Gina orders Shannon a rather uncomfortable “muscle sandwich.” The group later splits up, with Tamra, Emily, and Jenn discussing Tamra’s complicated relationship with Vicki and the lingering hurt caused by Vicki’s past comments about Tamra’s estrangement from her daughter, Sidney. At lunch, Gina confronts Shannon about treating Vicki differently from the other women. Shannon insists she is a loyal friend, but she begins questioning whether Vicki gives their friendship the same level of commitment. The women also participate in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, where conversations about loyalty, honesty, and Vicki’s relationships with the group quickly become uncomfortable. The biggest blowup happens when Tamra confronts Vicki about calling her a mother who chose fame over her daughter. Tamra becomes emotional, insisting that her estrangement from Sidney is the most painful experience of her life. Shannon comforts her, creating a surprisingly tender moment between the two women. However, the peace doesn't last. At dinner, the argument reignites when Vicki brings up Tamra’s past comments about Brooks and the alleged cancer scam. Vicki insists she has apologized, while Tamra argues that Vicki continues to make hurtful comments about her daughter. The confrontation escalates until Vicki storms out, declaring that she doesn't want to be around Tamra. Shannon eventually persuades Vicki to return and speak with Tamra, but the conversation remains tense. Although the women briefly embrace, the reconciliation feels far from genuine. Meanwhile, Carmela struggles with stress and managing her blood sugar as she worries about letting the group down during the Japan trip. On Watch What Happens Live, Tamra discusses the emotional confrontation and explains how deeply it hurts when people use her relationship with Sidney against her during arguments. She also addresses the situation involving Vicki and the scan, explaining that she had taken multiple Xanax pills and was too out of it to remember being told not to discuss the scan with the other women. ✳️Follow us on Social Media✳️ ============================================ 📸 Follow ☑️ Facebook 👉 / https://url-shortener.me/EVFH 🐦 Follow ☑️ TikTok👉 / https://www.tiktok.com/@wewinewhenever? 📸 Follow ☑️ Instagram👉 / https://www.instagram.com/wewinewhenever/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.wewinewhenever.com/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.buzzsprout.com/2236104/support 📺 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://www.youtube.com/@WeWineWhenever?sub_confirmation=1 Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

RHOSLC S7 E5: Hypocrisy and Bull — Bronwyn’s Disco Disaster!

Send us Fan Mail RHOSLC S7 E5: Hypocrisy and Bull — Bronwyn’s Disco Disaster! RHOSLC Season 7, Episode 5: Hypocrisy and Bull... In The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 7, Episode 5, the ladies continue their San Francisco getaway, where emotional revelations, friendship drama, and a disastrous musical performance turn Bronwyn’s special night into a full-blown confrontation. Whitney opens up to Heather about the serious problems in her marriage to Justin. She reveals that they have been struggling with intimacy, that she has moved into the guest bedroom, and that separation has been discussed for a second time. As Whitney approaches 40, she admits she has never really been alone and is questioning what she wants for her future. Her conversation with Heather highlights the emotional challenges of navigating marriage, motherhood, and the expectations she grew up with. Meanwhile, Lisa and Angie get into another hilarious argument about Lisa’s overlined lips. Angie introduces the golden ratio of facial aesthetics, while Lisa insists her lips are simply the way God made them. Heather joins the conversation with a particularly savage comment comparing Lisa’s lips to a vulva, leaving Lisa thoroughly offended. The ongoing lip drama provides plenty of comic relief during the group’s boat excursion, although Angie ends up feeling so sick that she misses the evening festivities. Bronwyn also finds herself reflecting on her past as she returns to a city where she once felt happy and at home. She confides in Whitney that she feels lost, explaining that she cannot return to her old life but is frightened by what comes next. Her emotional vulnerability makes the evening’s events even more painful. The biggest drama erupts at Bronwyn’s disco party when Lisa and Meredith surprise everyone with their musical performance, Hypocrisy and Bullshit. The two call themselves the Glam Kittens and take over the DJ booth to perform a song that they claim is aimed at the entire group. Bronwyn is visibly devastated, especially given that she is hosting the party and has worked hard to bring everyone together. After Lisa and Meredith join the group’s table, Britani makes it clear that they are not welcome. With encouragement from Heather, Bronwyn finally stands up for herself and tells the two women to leave, calling them out for their behavior and reminding them that she has repeatedly tried to make peace with them. Lisa and Meredith eventually leave, but Lisa returns for another round of yelling before Bronwyn decides to retreat to her room. The episode closes with Lisa questioning why Bronwyn is taking the song so personally, insisting that it was directed at everyone. The hypocrisy is hard to miss when the women claim to be moving forward while simultaneously staging a performance designed to stir up more conflict. On Watch What Happens Live, Meredith Marks and Ziwe join Andy Cohen. Meredith clarifies that the song was intended for the entire group, while Andy brings up Whitney’s marital struggles. Meredith expresses hope that Whitney finds peace for herself and her children. Ziwe also weighs in on the ongoing lip-liner controversy, questioning the idea that comparing lips to a vulva should be considered insulting. ✳️Follow us on Social Media✳️ ============================================ 📸 Follow ☑️ Facebook 👉 / https://url-shortener.me/EVFH 🐦 Follow ☑️ TikTok👉 / https://www.tiktok.com/@wewinewhenever? 📸 Follow ☑️ Instagram👉 / https://www.instagram.com/wewinewhenever/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.wewinewhenever.com/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.buzzsprout.com/2236104/support 📺 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://www.youtube.com/@WeWineWhenever?sub_confirmation=1 Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

Send us Fan Mail RHONY S16 E6 Recap: Sai Exposes Erin’s Secrets & Jessel’s Marriage Drama RHONY Season 16, Episode 6: Moskito Madness The drama heats up in The Real Housewives of New York City as Sai confronts Erin over rumors about her separation and Jessel’s marriage, Carole opens up about her past, and Daisy continues to complain about just about everything! Daisy struggles with making her own coffee and worries that a face mask is burning her skin, while Jessel and Sai catch up on the latest gossip. Meanwhile, Erin, Carole, and Daisy discuss Jessel allegedly Googling the women, leading to some uncomfortable conversations about online reputations and Carole’s past connections to Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew. The real fireworks begin when Sai confronts Erin about allegedly sharing information about her separation. Erin denies spreading the news, but Sai refuses to let it go. The argument escalates when Sai brings up Erin’s alleged comments about Jessel’s husband, including a shocking claim that he is gay. Makeup artist Chris is brought into the conversation and appears to confirm that Erin made the remark, leaving Jessel with plenty of questions about what her friend has been saying behind her back. Daisy criticizes Sai’s aggressive delivery, but Erika points out the hypocrisy of Daisy policing other people’s manners when she has spent much of the trip complaining about the house. The women continue to argue about loyalty, friendship, and who has been talking behind whose back. Erin becomes emotional after the confrontation, but her insistence that she did nothing wrong only adds fuel to the fire. Carole also opens up about a sexual assault she experienced in college, adding a more serious moment to an episode otherwise dominated by gossip and accusations. Later, Jessel apologizes to Erin for the insurance-fraud joke, but the damage to their friendships is far from resolved. The episode ends with tipsy tennis, where the women must play while holding drinks. The fun takes a painful turn when Sai appears to injure her knee after a bad landing. While the other women react to the incident, Erin remains seated, raising even more questions about where her loyalties lie. Between explosive accusations, questionable friendships, Daisy’s endless complaints, and a potentially serious injury, Moskito Madness delivers plenty of Housewives chaos. The biggest question is whether Erin can recover from the rumors about Jessel’s husband and Sai’s separation—or whether these friendships are officially beyond repair. ✳️Follow us on Social Media✳️ ============================================ 📸 Follow ☑️ Facebook 👉 / https://url-shortener.me/EVFH 🐦 Follow ☑️ TikTok👉 / https://www.tiktok.com/@wewinewhenever? 📸 Follow ☑️ Instagram👉 / https://www.instagram.com/wewinewhenever/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.wewinewhenever.com/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.buzzsprout.com/2236104/support 📺 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://www.youtube.com/@WeWineWhenever?sub_confirmation=1 Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

After the explosive arguments from the previous night, everyone is rehashing what happened, friendships are being tested, and some surprising personal revelations come to light. Angie K. Gets Emotional About Her Marriage Angie opens up to Heather about the struggles in her marriage to Shawn. After 27 years together, Angie admits that although they remain a great team and business partners, they are no longer connecting emotionally or physically. She feels they have different views and ideologies and confesses that she needs space. Angie breaks down in tears and asks Heather to keep their conversation private. Bronwyn’s Divorce Raises Questions The women continue questioning Bronwyn’s explanation of her divorce and financial arrangements with Todd. Britani questions how the house is owned, who must sign the paperwork, and how the money will be divided. Bronwyn explains that their properties are held in a trust and that they have a handshake agreement, but the women wonder whether things could turn ugly if Todd changes his mind. A Visit to the Antique Vibrator Museum While some of the women go shopping, Meredith, Lisa, Angie, and Quai enjoy a very different San Francisco experience at the Good Vibrations Antique Vibrator Museum. Sexologist Carol Queen explains the history of vibrators, and the women explore the fascinating collection of vintage sexual devices. They later meet stylist John Hadid and try on fabulous vintage pieces before heading to China Live for a dumpling-making dinner.

But the biggest surprise is a ball gag for Whitney, prompting Whitney to declare that the message has been received!

The argument intensifies when Bronwyn accuses Whitney of talking negatively about nearly everyone at the biker bar. Whitney insists that her words have been twisted, while Meredith challenges Whitney’s version of events. The biggest question becomes whether Ashley made negative comments about Meredith during a private conversation with Whitney. Ashley denies the accusations, while Whitney insists she remembers their conversation clearly. With everyone talking over one another, Angie attempts to restore order by passing Bronwyn’s dildo around like a talking stick. Naturally, that only makes the situation more ridiculous! Lisa and Angie Trade Insults Lisa becomes increasingly frustrated as the women argue, while Angie calls attention to Lisa repeatedly lining her lips. Lisa refuses to back down and fires off a brutally personal insult about Angie’s appearance. The dinner descends into another round of shouting, accusations, and finger-pointing. By the end of the evening, the women have made little progress in resolving their conflicts. Between Angie’s emotional marriage confession, the unanswered questions surrounding Bronwyn’s divorce, and Whitney’s latest confrontation with Meredith and Ashley, San Francisco has delivered another unforgettable episode of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. ✳️Follow us on Social Media✳️ ============================================ 📸 Follow ☑️ Facebook 👉 / https://url-shortener.me/EVFH 🐦 Follow ☑️ TikTok👉 / https://www.tiktok.com/@wewinewhenever? 📸 Follow ☑️ Instagram👉 / https://www.instagram.com/wewinewhenever/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.wewinewhenever.com/ 🌐 Follow ☑️ us on Website👉 / https://www.buzzsprout.com/2236104/support 📺 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊: https://www.youtube.com/@WeWineWhenever?sub_confirmation=1 Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

Giselle arrives confused about the cast, Alex McCord channels Kylie Minogue, Teresa dresses as Cher, Erin is Jessica Rabbit, and Kelly Bensimon hands out jellybeans dressed as an angel. The evening gets increasingly chaotic when Porsche arrives more than two hours late, despite Luann repeatedly emphasizing how important her presence is. The Magic Man wows the women with mind-reading and levitation tricks, while Luann eventually becomes frustrated that Porsche and Chanel are talking while she is speaking. Then comes the talent show—with Teresa attempting the saxophone, Lisa trying to rap, Kyle doing the splits, Porsche performing interpretive dance, Vicki ranting, Giselle “kissing ass,” and Alex showing off Australian breakdancing. But the real fireworks happen when the cast tries to take a group photo and Luann repeatedly positions herself in front of Giselle. Giselle finally calls her out and walks away. Meanwhile, Lisa seems determined to follow Luann around and support her through the chaos. The next day, the women head toward the Berkshires and Bluestone Manor, but the argument continues. Luann remains fixated on Porsche being two hours late, while Porsche finally confronts her about her behavior and lack of accountability.

Send us Fan Mail RHOSLC S7 E2: Whitney Says Sorry… Meredith Says NOPE! | Après-Ski & Apology Drama RHOSLC Season 7, Episode 2 — “Apre’s-Ski with Lisa B” is packed with apologies, relationship drama, questionable skiing skills, and the never-ending battle between Whitney and Meredith. Lisa Barlow hosts a ski day for the women, hoping to bring everyone together while also dealing with the ongoing tension surrounding Mary. Whitney arrives ready to finally make peace with Lisa and Meredith after admitting that she had been drinking to cope with the struggles in her personal life and the loss of her business. Her heartfelt apology to Lisa seems to land, with both women admitting they still have a soft spot for each other. But Whitney's attempt to make amends with Meredith goes very differently. Whitney apologizes for the horrible things she said about Meredith and admits she hates how she behaved, not Meredith herself. Meredith, however, refuses to accept the apology, accusing Whitney of repeatedly saying hurtful things, apologizing, and then doing it all over again. Things quickly spiral when Heather brings up Meredith's past accusations about her, including the homophobia and pill-popping comments. Meanwhile, Bronwyn's relationship drama continues as she opens up about her romance with 32-year-old Brandon, her regret over how publicly the relationship became known, and her concerns about hurting Todd. The women aren't exactly buying Bronwyn's explanation that Brandon's appearance at the funeral became public because something "leaked." Heather also gets vulnerable, apologizing to Lisa for her behavior during Ultimate Girls Trip, admitting she drank too much and went below the belt. And then there's the actual skiing! Lisa and Angie struggling on the slopes provides some of the episode's funniest moments, while Meredith sits out because she's recovering from her facelift. Ashley Quai also joins the group, hoping she can help bridge the divide between Whitney, Lisa, and Meredith.

Teresa is excited because her sister-in-law Melissa is attending, and we get flashbacks to their complicated but once-close relationship. Jacqueline Laurita and Peggy Tanous also make appearances, with Jacqueline and Melissa agreeing to put their decade-long issues behind them. Meanwhile, Lisa Barlow and Larsa are still in the middle of their feud, with Lisa discovering that Lisa Barlow follows Marcus and comparing the whole situation to a telenovela. The party is full of speeches and performances, including Luann refusing to stop singing, Adriana taking the mic, and Vicki wondering why these Housewives keep thinking they can sing and dance. Eventually, the group leaves Miami and heads to New York. In New York, Luann quickly reunites with her boyfriend Michael before Dorinda arrives to host a gangster-themed lunch. The group gets together at a Bronx restaurant, where Carole arrives hungry and immediately starts negotiating what she can eat, while Luann takes another opportunity to complain about Sonja and admits she was upset that Carole “stole” her chef. Dorinda reveals she showed up hungover and simply continued drinking, because apparently that was the only reasonable solution. The conversation eventually turns emotional as Teresa opens up about spending 18 years of her life on reality television, losing her parents and having her daughter Audriana on camera. Vicki reflects on losing her mother while filming, while Gizelle tells Vicki that she feels she has finally blossomed after being supported and seen. The women also get emotional discussing motherhood, resilience and the strange reality of having so much of their lives documented on television. The episode ends with everyone getting ready for a Halloween party that becomes a full-on Bravo reunion, with Kelly Bensimon, Jill Zarin, Alex McCord, Jessel, Sai, Chanel Ayan, Dolores and Carole all showing up in costumes. Carole’s Steven Tyler costume is definitely one of the standout looks, while Gizelle has no idea who the Realitea guys are before correctly realizing they are fans. Erin and Abe also arrive, and Sai tells Jessel she was being a little bitchy toward Dorinda, while Chanel continues calling Jessel “Ramona.” Of course, the biggest question is where Porsha is, because she is still at the hotel and now more than 35 minutes late. Between the Miami drama, Luann’s nonstop singing, Teresa getting emotional about her reality-TV journey, and the parade of Bravo legends in New York, this episode really leans into the idea of Housewives history coming full circle.

The next morning, Vicki is still convinced she is the victim and even jokes about Venmo-requesting them for what she spent on the weekend. Meanwhile, the ladies in Los Olivos speculate about the drama back at Vicki’s, including the ongoing mystery of whether Carmela’s engagement ring actually exists. Gina also opens up about reaching a point where she was okay with never getting married to Travis because of their complicated family situation. Back with the group, the fallout spreads quickly. Emily tells Carmela and Shannon that Vicki had been talking about Carmela during their trip, including questioning whether Carmela and Danny even live in their house. Carmela is understandably furious, especially because she feels Vicki is perfectly comfortable discussing everyone else’s relationships while refusing to address her own issues with Mike. Emily also opens up about her struggles with Shane, particularly feeling like he doesn’t contribute enough around the house, while Shane feels that Emily doesn’t acknowledge the sacrifices he makes for their family. On the other side of town, Gina and Travis are discussing whether they should spend millions on a bigger home for their blended family or have the wedding Gina has always wanted—and then Travis finally gives Gina her actual engagement ring. Meanwhile, Carmela and Danny have a surprisingly honest conversation about their relationship, including his past cheating and recent messages with another woman.

Vicki admits that despite everything looking perfect on paper, she often feels alone and worries that Mike could eventually leave her. For once, Tamra puts the stirring-the-pot aside and actually gives Vicki the emotional support she needs, encouraging her to confront the deeper issues behind her fear of being alone. It is one of those rare moments where Tamra actually feels like Vicki’s friend—and honestly, I didn’t hate it Real Housewives, Orange County, season 20, episode 11, reality TV, relationships, conflict, production insights Support the show https://www.wewinewhenever.com/

Send us Fan Mail RHOSLC The Housewives Rally Around Mary RHOSLC S7 E1 Chosen Family The Season 7 premiere of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, “Chosen Family,” begins on a much more somber note than usual as the women come together to support Mary Cosby following the tragic death of her son, Robert Jr. The group puts their usual arguments aside and rallies around Mary, showing up for her during an incredibly difficult time. Mary opens up about her grief and the complicated emotions surrounding Robert’s struggles, while also making it clear how much the support of the women has meant to her. The idea of “chosen family” takes on a much deeper meaning as Mary recognizes that the RHOSLC women were there for her when she needed them most. Once the episode moves beyond the immediate tragedy, some familiar Salt Lake City drama starts creeping back in. Whitney Rose has to deal with the fallout from her harsh comments about Lisa Barlow and Meredith Marks, attempting to apologize while Lisa and Meredith remain less than convinced. Meanwhile, Heather Gay introduces her new boyfriend, Tripp, a man she actually dated years ago before their relationship ended badly. The two have reconnected years later, and Heather is clearly excited about this second chance at romance. Bronwyn Newport is also entering a new chapter, navigating changes in her marriage and opening up about her new relationship with Brandon, while Lisa and John Barlow work through their own marital issues and finally seem to reach a breakthrough. What makes this premiere stand out is the contrast between the usual Housewives chaos and the genuine grief surrounding Mary. There are still hints of the arguments, relationships and shifting alliances that will drive the season, but “Chosen Family” ultimately establishes a more emotional starting point for Season 7, with the women showing that their relationships can extend beyond the drama.

RHONY Erin’s Apology Didn’t Last Five Minutes

Send us Fan Mail RHONY Erin’s Apology Didn’t Last Five Minutes RHONY S16 E2 Much Ado About Brunching Carole is officially back in New York, and she’s settling into her new old life after spending the last eight years focused on writing. Her apartment renovation even turned her kitchen into an office before she eventually turned it back into a kitchen—and now her office is basically her car, where she parks like a professional while working around the street sweeper. We learn that Erika met Carole through Martha Stewart, because apparently everyone on this show is connected through Martha. Carole also gets the exciting news that her book is back on the New York Times bestseller list thanks to renewed interest surrounding the Love Story documentary about John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. Meanwhile, Erin and Abe discover that their Sag Harbor home has been devastated by a burst pipe, with their bedroom destroyed, mold already present, and even the wall where they tracked their children’s heights potentially needing to be torn out. It’s especially heartbreaking because the house holds so many memories of Erin’s late father. Erika, who apparently has a WWE past, is now teaching at Equinox, while Daisy decides she wants to cheer Sai up and organizes a brunch with the group. There’s plenty of speculation about what is going on with Sai, who is clearly dealing with some major personal and financial issues, although she says her story is hers to tell. Before the brunch, Hailey has plenty to say about Erin, calling her boring and comparing her to strawberry jam—something that’s just sitting on the table and nobody really cares about. At the brunch, the conversation takes a turn when Daisy reads a flirty text from her son’s tutor and admits she doesn’t really know how to establish the boundary that she’s married. Jessel correctly points out that the tutor’s message sounds like Daisy is leading him on, and honestly, Daisy might want to figure that boundary out sooner rather than later. Then Erin gives Sai a genuinely sweet toast, but the mood quickly shifts when the women discuss Erin and Jessel’s fractured friendship. Erin apologizes for talking about Jessel, but the broken-nose story comes up too, and suddenly it feels like an Erin pile-on. And then Carole arrives and accidentally gets pulled straight into the drama. Erin is furious when Carole reveals that she has called Jessel obnoxious, desperate, and thirsty, especially because she considers Carole a friend. Erin also brings up Jessel allegedly being rude to her dermatologist, but the flashback shows Jessel simply saying she doesn’t think they’ve met before—hardly a crime. Sai is understandably like, hello, I thought this brunch was supposed to be about me! Once the drama settles down, Daisy wants to talk to Carole about Carolyn Bessette, and Jessel starts asking increasingly uncomfortable questions about whether Carolyn was a bitch, her minimalist style, and whether the Kennedy family is cursed. Carole understandably decides she has had enough and leaves before things get even more awkward. Then the burlesque show begins, and Erin immediately whispers to Daisy that Jessel is a clout chaser—literally moments after apologizing for talking shit about her.
