RHONJ’s Future (Teresa or Melissa), Tamra’s Bravo Protection, RHOBH’s Spoilers & Rachel Leviss’ Return(?)

A few months ago, at the close of last season’s very toxic RHONJ, we discussed the vision we foresaw for the future of RHONJ. In other words, who would be back and who would not be back. Today, we step into the alternative universe with another, possibly clearer vision. Melissa or Teresa. That is the question and regardless of whether Melissa or Teresa are back, how, if at all, are the rest of the cast affected. Short answer, not so much at all. We break down how and why, discuss when we expect to hear about Season 15 casting, dispel the many, many many false rumors out there and much more.  Finally, we touch upon the current state of Housewives with RHOBH, RHOP, RHOC and RHOSLC all airing, starting, or finishing very soon.   @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) 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.

Melissa’s Old Nose - Gabriella - steps back Behind The Rope.  She’s baaack and so is the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.  Gabriella is here to help break down the stellar trailer, the upcoming season - Dorit vs. Kyle, Dorit vs. Sutton, Sutton vs Kyle, newbies Jennifer Tilly and Boz, Kyle & Mo’s separation, Kyle & Morgan, Dorit & PK’s separation, the joys of Sutton Stracke and what it is like to watch a Housewives show with no specific teams where the women are actually rich, really, really rich.  Speaking of teams, with Gabriella here, the convo turns to RHONJ. We discuss Jennifer Aydin’s reaction and likely future once she finds out she is not returning to RHONJ, why TreStumps are still angry with Dolo, why Dolores would never “work” with Bloggers the way Tre and Aydin “allegedly” did, why Tre and Aydin have still not “learned”, what Teresa told her about her brother Joey Gorga, Andy Cohen’s true feelings about Joey G, when we are expected to hear about the future of RHONJ, who is most likely returning and what she has heard about casting and potential newbies.  Whew! Part II starts now.  @rhonjteabee @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)  PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) 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.

Another day, another twist and turn in the Teddi Mellencamp divorce. Rumors arise that Teddi has been having an affair for a long time with her Horse Trainer and that it is well known in the equestrian community. Edwin lets the world know that he and Ms. Mellencamp have a pre-nup. Last, but not least, Teddi reveals she has been in pain for years and that none other than Kyle Richards has inspired her to finally break free.  Heather Dubrow and Emily Simpson dig into Katie Ginella’s past in a move that reminded us of Tre and Louie, Pedranti hits Simpson where it hurts and Tamra and Shannon attempt to reconcile, kinda, but not really.  JT quits Southern Charm refusing to participate in press or any more green screen interviews.  RHO Dubai is cancelled and The Huff Post slams the RHONY Reboot as a “total fail” causing us to wonder if the RHONY franchise is next. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

The OG of the OC Miss Vicki Gunvalson steps back Behind The Rope.  Vicki is here to chat about the full ride of her RHOC career - the ups and downs, good and bad and everything in between from her time on the show to life after being a full time RHOC Orange Holder.  Vicki opens up about many of her much publicized relationships that we have seen and heard so much about on air and behind the scenes - Don, Brooks and Steve. Vicki discusses her many tumultuous relationships with RHOC co-stars Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Kelly Dodd, Alexis “Jesus Jugs” Bellino, Meghan King Edmonds (Did Brooks lie about cancer?), Jeana Keough and Heather Dubrow. We figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with The OG of the OC so kick back, relax and enjoy this trip down memory lane regarding some of Vicki’s most iconic moments - the State of Oklahoma, Slade Smiley’s infamous “pig” comment, her plastic surgeries throughout the years, Lauri Peterson’s Ski Slope “multiple partners” and of course, last but certainly not least, just how many people can you fit into a family van?

Our live show has come and gone where no question was off limits and boy did this audience bring it! From why certain past Podcast relationships have ended, past Housewife friendships - some recent, some not so recent have exploded, to reading specific nasty texts from and to Housewives and many and every other Housewife who we have blocked and who have blocked us, y’all were, are and seemingly always will be shady AF in the best way possible. We talk friendship and business fall outs with Housewives from RHONJ, RHOM, RHOC, and more.  In other news, we talk the future of RHONJ - who will really truly return Melissa or Teresa and Marge’s involvement in helping lead to a toxic environment, the most shocking thing we have heard about Real Housewives this week, the rudest Housewives in person, the joy of hanging with Kathy Hilton, Teresa’s recent strange behavior and businesses, the future of RHOC, Tamra’s protection from Bravo, the Grand Dame’s hard RHOP season, Rachel Leviss secrets, new alleged Tom Sandoval lies and soooo very much more. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/c/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.

Vicki Gunvalson claims Bravo did not tell her that her Mom died for an hour while she filmed a scene for RHOC and that Reality TV has a dark side. Tell us something we don’t know.  Two past RHOC are prime for a return, RHOC concludes with a bang, Tamra claims she is protected by Bravo and that only 3% of the audience really hates her and last, but certainly not least, viewers compare Tamra’s toxic RHOC behavior this season to Teresa’s last RHONJ season. Ironic considering the two dislike each other thanks to Louie Ruelas.  RHOSLC has not missed a beat despite the fans fear that this season would be lackluster without Von Tease, Mike Shouhed’s abusive past resurfaces - again, Carl Radke and Danielle Olivera are rumored to be dating, Karen Huger is rumored to be carrying on all over the DMV with a younger suitor and much more! @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  SONO BELLO - sonobello.com/velvet (Get Friends & Family Rates During This Fall Savings Event on Laser Assisted Lipo & More!)

Brandi Glanville urges Caroline Manzo to come out of the closet, slams her again and claps back at fans who have an issue with her, all in a series of tweets fired off over the past few weeks. Bravo is rumored to want Lisa Vanderpump out of Pump Rules - well the rumor is that they are trying to push/force her out of her own show as salary disputes remain broken down. We offer a few theories as to who is holding up salary talks - not who you think, the likelihood everyone will return, the chances of Rachel Leviss appearing and whether this once top rated Bravo show is worth investing in for one last season of closure. The Real Housewives of London is coming, Dubai is moving forward for Season 3 and RHONY is, well, chugging along. Every ex Real Housewife seems to have a new Podcast and we have a lot to say about ‘em all - and we mean all. Finally, Teresa and Louie seem to be having more financial problems than ever. Allegedly. Way to buy the lead. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns on Elevated Luxury Without Paying Luxury Prices)  SONO BELLO - sonobello.com/velvet (Get Friends & Family Rates During This Fall Savings Event on Laser Assisted Lipo & More!)

We announced a few days ago that Teddi Mellencamp has filed for divorce from her husband of thirteen years, Edwin Arroyave. Today we share updates regarding Teddi’s divorce and what we find most interesting and shocking about the motions she recently filed with the courts.  Lindsay Hubbard shares info on her pregnancy, man and Summer House. Bethenny Frankel addresses the claim that the RHONY Reboot is “unwatchable” and “should be taken away”, shares joy in the fact that the Bravo Powers That Be must be “writhing in pain” and sheds light on the golden era of Housewives which, of course, she pats herself on the back for. Alexis shares updates on Johnny J, Emily Simpson is angry at Shannon, RHOC borderlines RHONJ level toxicity, Shannon makes insane claims towards Alexis and so much more as we prepare for the RHOC reunion tomorrow night. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.
