The women finally got back to having some fun this week on their day trip to Ojai for Annemarie's birthday and we went an entire day without discussing Sutton's esophagus! Well not for long, at least... From silly sexy card questions, to the ridiculous scissor sister sex simulation by Kyle and Dorit, that trip was one for the books. And Kyle organizes a heartfelt tribute event to honor her late best friend, with Morgan Wade in tow! Support the show SUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM ON PATREON HERE OR APPLE P...

We're kicking off this epic three-parter with a little bit of a different approach guys! Since it's just EP and I on this one, we're going to do less of a straight recap and approach it more through a producer's lens. We asked y'all to send in questions, and y'all delivered some great ones which we address throughout (and will continue to in parts 2 & 3 as well)! This is going to be a wild ride, here we go!

This was quite the week in Beverly Hills, as we picked up with the Taco Tuesday from Hell and steamrolled until what will go down in history as one of the most awkward lunches in Housewives history between Dorit and Garcelle, which left all of us wondering... what the hell was taking that greek salad so long, because we couldve used some reprive from Dorit's epic foot in mouth ramblings! But one thing remains unwavered... Garcelle being an absolute queen. Betsy and I are breaking it all down ......

Wow. Just, wow. We don't know what to say about this episode, let alone this whole season, except.... Absolutely. No. Notes... None. Not one. This episode deserves to go down in history as one of the greatest hours of reality television to ever grace our screens; a spectacularly woven narrative unfolded and revealed with such beautiful precision that if this damn show doesn't get a nomination for something, we're starting a petition. The Mystery of Monica was at long last finally, albeit partial...

It's Day 5 of RHONY Legacy's St. Barts trip and THANK THE HEAVENS, we finally got a Crazy Kelly free 24 hours! I mean Cookoo for sure, but without major incident at the veryyyy least. Which is more than we can say about our resident Lady Morgan, as she regaled the women with her Mr. Morgan meet cute? Who knows... but the one thing we're all sure of is that it was a work of pure fiction. Not to mention we got a lovely walk down memory lane via the RHONY Relic Scavenger Hunt.

It's Day 4 on this St. Barts rendition of Scary Island and, well... Kelly's still keeping the women (and US ) on the hamster wheel from hell. But all's not completely amiss... as we do get Lady Morgan's voyage of the high seas (or at least the jacuzzi) on her deja vu-esque yacht day; and what will go down in the books as a classic Luanne moment, running around the house hiding from the other women with a cockie in one hand and a cigarette in the other!
