Louie Ruelas’ company, Digital Marketing Solutions (DMS), filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy last week. We break down the facts that led up to this declaration, discuss what this means for the business and where Mr. Ruelas goes from here. We next discuss Teresa - what she knew, if anything, her new goals in life and how she feels about this declaration of Bankruptcy, her husband and the public’s reaction. We discuss their marriage, is there a need for intervention and whether Margaret Josephs has been right all along. Next, we discuss and reveal every detail regarding the Tre Hugger bloggers who have bombarded the RHOBH cast past and present this week - Sutton, Erika, Kyle, Dorit, Teddi, Rinna, Garcelle, even Jennifer Tilly - trying to bring the toxicity of the RHONJ blog world to RHOBH which suggests that the toxic nature of RHONJ has not yet died down and the pause has changed nothing since last month’s finale. Finally, we discuss Teresa’s involvement in the RHONJ blogger community, whether she is aware of the recent RHOBH attack and whether this will affect her future multi million dollar job. Oh yea, also Kyle and Morgan break up. Way to bury the lead! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Braunwyn Windham Burke steps Behind The Rope. Braunwyn is here to chat about her experience before, during and after her two season run on the OG of them all, The Real Housewives of Orange County. Braunwyn breaks down the highs and lows of her time on RHOC and all that she faced during this time in the public eye - coming out as gay, revealing she is an alcoholic and showing what society still considers an “unconventional” marriage. Braunwyn holds nothing back in sharing the status of her sobriety, her relationships and everything else she has going on since leaving the show. Of course, we also break down just why the public did not believe her truth, the masses that cried “fake” storylines, what really went on behind the scenes with Production and filming and how and why she thinks Bravo could have handled it all much differently. Finally we chat cast mates such as Vicki, Tamra, Shannon & Heather Dubrow and much more. All this and we are only getting started as today we deemed the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Braunwyn.  @braunwynwindhamburke @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  ROSETTA STONE - rosettastone.com/today (50% Off Unlimited Access to 25 Language Courses For The Rest of Your Life) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For $120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands)  FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) PSYCHIC SOURCE (Download The Psychic Source App in Apple or Google Play For Free To Get a 35 Minute Psychic Reading For Only $20 With Code Velvet) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility)  ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
