Teresa Giudice Mad At Jacqueline Laurita(?), VPR’s Return w/ Rachel Leviss(?) & Tamra Judge’s RHOC Future

There are so many rumors swirling in the VanderVerse about the future of VPR. Contract disputes, demands for money, the fact that Ariana has moved on both figuratively and literally - as her and Tom’s house goes up for sale and last, but certainly not least, a cast that is much divided with Lala not speaking to Ariana at all. We break down all these facts, discuss the likelihood VPR will return for a final season and address the rumors that the next gen of VanderKids is about to emerge in VPR 2.0. The Real Housewives of Dubai is green lit for Season 3, Caroline Brooks tells fans to F off and we, the BravoVerse, gasp in shock that this low rated franchise is returning. Of course, we have a few theories on that. Finally, we break down our recent run in with Lisa Rinna and discuss the return of RHOBH - trailer released and whether Rinna would, should and could return as a diamond holder one day. @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)  JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) BRANCH BASICS - branchbasics.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Your Entire Order Of These Non-Toxic, All-Natural Cleaning Products) ONESKIN- oneskin.co (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off The Skin Care Which Targets The Root Causes Of Aging)  IRESTORE  (Get 25% Off iRestore’s Illumina Face Mask with the code VELVET25 at https://bit.ly/4eMcFQK) HEALTHY GUT SECRET -  HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet (Watch This Video Right Here HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet and See Exactly How I Am Able To Stay In Shape) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston’s Award Winning Hair Care) RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Get the Rakuten App NOW and Join the 17 Million Members Who Are Already Saving!  Your Cash Back really adds up!)

Jax Taylor steps Behind The Rope. Jax is here for a nothing is off limits chat breaking down the full anthology of his time in the VanderVerse - the highs and lows of VPR, cast mates, and ultimate end. Jax clarifies the circumstances surrounding his and wife Brittany Cartwright’s exit, the many misconceptions about it, and the truth as to what actually happened. Jax also talks about the end of his friendship with Stassi, ups and downs of his relationship with Lisa Vanderpump and ins and outs of his bro Tom Sandoval. Recorded in a simpler, and some could argue more peaceful time, before “The Valley”, before his separation from Brittany, Jax talks about a new show he was trying to get off the ground about “Daddy Jax” set in the valley, discusses married life to Brittany and much more. They say hindsight is 20/20. Today we put that theory to the test by sharing this never before aired chat, uncovering easter eggs, foreshadowing and so much more. A nothing is off limits trip down all things Vanderpump lane with the #1 guy in the group, Mr. Jax Taylor. @mrjaxtaylor @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) BRANCH BASICS - branchbasics.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Your Entire Order Of These Non-Toxic, All-Natural Cleaning Products) IRESTORE  (Get 25% Off iRestore’s Illumina Face Mask with the code VELVET25 at https://bit.ly/4eMcFQK) 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)  HEALTHY GUT SECRET -  HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet (Watch This Video Right Here HealthyGutSecret.com/Velvet and See Exactly How I Am Able To Stay In Shape) GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston’s Award Winning Hair Care) RAKUTEN - rakuten.com (Get the Rakuten App NOW and Join the 17 Million Members Who Are Already Saving!  Your Cash Back really adds up!)

Gretchen Rossi steps back Behind The Rope. It is hard to imagine it’s been seven seasons since Gretchen was last a full time cast member on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Gretchen reflects back on her several season run on the granddaddy of The Real Housewives Franchise. We discuss the good (meeting fiancé Slade Smiley, performing with the Pussycat Dolls), the bad (there seems to be no love loss between her and former co-star Tamra Judge, the 80s Bunco Party, a reference to a certain muppet who goes by the name Miss Piggy), and the other (how RHOC has forever changed her life). Gretchen chats about many of her former colleagues - Vicki Gunvalson, Heather Dubrow, Alexis “Jesus Juggs” Bellino and more. With all the talk in the past few weeks about Tamra’s “Spectrum” Diagnosis, Tamra’s Takedown, potential lawsuits and former RHOC cast members and Housewives across all franchises, including Gretchen, weighing in on the current and decade long past actions of Tamra, we figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Gretchen Rossi.

RHONJ may be off the air but many of our favs, who may or may not be returning, have been making quite the headlines this past week. Teresa is urging, or begging based on how you read it, everyone to sign up for some website where we can all make free money to the tune of 50K a year. We break down this very strange biz venture, share updates on Louie’s other biz ventures and answer just what is going on across the river in the Giudice / Ruelas household. Jennifer Aydin cannot seem to accept her fate that she is probably not returning to RHONJ, claims she has spoken to Andy Cohen, slams Tamra as thirsty and backtracks on many of her current statements regarding her cast mates and future of the show. Finally, Melissa Gorga shades Teresa and explains why she follows all the rules unlike her beloved sister in law. In other news, RHOP Season 9, Episode 3. The Grand Dame is in the hot seat as everyone has questions about her DUI, Gizelle remains mad over the GNA event and public headlines arise that her attorney’s motion to dismiss the case against her due to a lack of Miranda Rights has been denied. In other words, the Grand Dame in headed to face a jury for her fateful actions the night she got behind the wheel of the car, allegedly, intoxicated.  Mia is messy AF, Stacey becomes enraged with Ashley, Gizelle and Wendy are actually getting along and, even though we are only in episode three, the ladies prepare to head on a cast trip to the far away and exotic state of North Carolina. How exciting.  @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/c/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Crystal Kung Minkoff and Cynthia Bailey have a new Podcast and we have a lot to say. This season of RHOP continues with the two main OGS - Karen and Gizelle - still at odds. Yes, Ashley, we know you are an OG too. Jennifer Aydin continues in her five stages of grief and still seems to be clueless about the fact that she will not be returning to RHONJ.  RHOSLC continues on with Mary’s participation, Whitney and Meredith growing farther apart, Bronwyn making the rounds and much more. Katie Maloney is in love, Jen Shah’s release date is moved up again and RHONY continues on with highs, lows and everything in between. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY:  LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston’s Award Winning Hair Care) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com (Use Code Velvet15 For 15% Your First Order of Clean, Spa Quality Skincare Essentials) RO - ro.co/velvet (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s At a Fraction Of The Cost Of The Name Brands) PAIR EYEWEAR - paireyewear.com (Use Code Velvet Rope For 15% Off Your First Pair For Infinite Possibilities of Stylish Frames)  GOBBLE gobble.com/velvet ($120 Off Across 4 Boxes, Plus Free Shipping and Free Cookies on Gobble’s Lean and Clean Dinner Subscription) JACK BLACK - getjackblack.com/velvet (Use Code Velvet For 10% Off Your Order of Men’s Grooming Products As Effective and Great As Women’s) 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.
