by Roxanne June 9, 2023
written by Roxanne

Louie Ruelas‘ ex-girlfriend, the one who has claimed to be the victim of being in a abusive relationship with a narcissist, has filed a restraining order on Louie Ruelas. For those who don’t know, Louie Ruelas actually filed a restraining order against the ex-girlfriend back in 2020.

Vanessa Reiser has a history of labeling her exes and attempting to defame them to anyone who will listen. Prior to Louie, Vanessa was married two previous times. Vanessa claims that her first husband who she had a son with was abusive. She claims her second husband Glenn Reiser was a cheater and she has now labeled Teresa Giudice’s husband Louie Ruelas a narcissist.

Prior to marrying her second husband Glenn, Vanessa also allegedly dated a man named Paul Devlin who has association with MLB. Paul claimed that Vanessa stole his jeep and then put an order of protection against him. 
According to court documents Paul even sent a letter to Glenn while he was married to Vanessa warning him all about Vanessa Reiser. This was found in court documents against Vanessa Reiser.

On May 18, 2018, Glenn Reiser filed a restraining order against Vanessa Reiser Glenn Reiser says that while he and Vanessa figured out their divorce, he requested to move into an extra room in the marital residence until things were all sorted out.

Glenn Reiser states that Vanessa committed the following family offenses: Disorderly conduct; Harassment in the first or second degree, stalking and criminal mischief. Glenn discusses an altercation with Vanessa where she was intoxicated, stumbling, smelling of alcohol and enraged. He asked her to leave and when she finally did, he heard a big bang and had to contact the police department filing a domestic incident report.

Glenn recalls, “The following morning, I noticed a dent on my car, which was caused by Vanessa the night prior.”

Glenn talks about an incident from May 15, 2018 where is attorney submitted their Verizon Bill which contained his phone records. Glenn says that Vanessa took it upon herself to begin contacting numbers found on her phone records and zoned in on his friend, Danielle. He describes Danielle as a married mom with an 8 year old son.
Vanessa began contacting Danielle and Danielle’s husband accusing Glenn of having an affair with Danielle. He informed his attorney.
On May 18th, 2018 — he was informed that Vanessa placed a tracker on his vehicle and has a report of his whereabouts since January, 2018. Glenn says that Vanessa had been stalking him for months.
Glenn says,

“Since May 16th, Vanessa has been contacting Danielle’s husband, my sister and our mutual friends non-stop, harassing, and making false accusations that I have been having an affair. Moreso, Vanessa is making threats to Danielle. This is affecting my work and my day to day being. Vanessa has no legitimate reason to engage in this behavior. I moved from the marital residence in December, 2017 and we are in the middle of an action for divorce.”

Glenn pleads, “I am afraid for my safety, and Vanessa’s behavior. Vanessa does not want a divorce and her behavior has been increasingly erratic since being served with the action for divorce. She is unstable.”

Glenn then requests an order of protection that Vanessa be ordered to stay away from him, his home, work place, and that Vanessa refrain from any and all communication with him or any third parties about him.

The ex-girlfriend has allegedly been stalking Louie Ruelas and repeating the same exact patterns since he got with Teresa Giudice even messaging AllAboutTRH on Instagram regarding Louie’s earlier appearance. The ex-girlfriend has made Louie Ruelas last few years a living hell and claims Louie Ruelas allegedly abused her, yet continues following all of his wife’s co-stars, Melissa’s family members, Melissa Gorga, Joe Gorga, Frank Catania and more. She engages regularly with Melissa Gorgas sisters and comments on majority of Melissa Gorgas photos. Joe Gorga and Frank Catania both follow her. All videos that have been released of Louie Ruelas since appearing on the Real Housewives were videos he had sent the ex-girlfriend. 

This ex-girlfriend has allegedly been in contact with Margaret Josephs for the last few years and they both follow each other on Instagram. Victims who have been horrifically abused as Vanessa Reiser has claimed, typically want nothing to do with the abuser. As for Vanessa, she has made it her mission to ruin Louie Ruelas life even following Teresa Giudice’s daughters on social media before they blocked her. 

The story of Vanessa Reiser and Louie Ruelas:

This deep dive comes from Bravo Ducking Bravo who did a great job with laying out all the details

According to the court documents, on March 25, 2020, the couple break up and Vanessa entered the main home with a friend, carrying black garbage bags. Louie states that he was watching a movie with one of his sons and she was very disruptive, yelling, and scared the son. The next day Louie takes legal action 

Bravo ducking Bravo recaps that Louie formally requested that she no longer contact him, disparage him publicly. He also asked that she return the ring, reimburse him for $175k spent on his Amex card and return a peloton bike leased by his company.

 A few days later the ex-girlfriend reaches out to Louie’s friend to ask him to communicate with Louie on her behalf.

Bravo ducking Bravo says that “during their relationship, they were active donors at a charity for women. Louie states that he helped her become a board member. He had been a longtime supporter of theirs. On April 1, he emailed the Director of organization and Vanessa heard about it. He explained why he believed Vanessa may not be a good fit for the organization.”

In the court document, which showcases the letter written by Louie, Louie explains that Vanessa verbally abused him on a regular, along with psychological manipulation to threats of personal and professional harm.

Elizabeth, 

I hope this email finds you well.  As you know, I have been a supporter of the important work of the Center for Safety and Change (CSC) for a number of years. Having witnessed, first hand, as a child, the impact of intimate partner violence, I believe deeply in the value of the resources provided by CSC. 

As a business owner, I am mindful of the fact that an organization is made up of individuals, and its vision and success is guided by the Board of Directors. It is for that reason I write you today, as I am concerned about the propriety of Vanessa Reiser, LCSW remaining on the Board of Directors for the CSC. 

As you know, Ms. Reiser and I were in a relationship for several years and it was, in part, my recommendation and support that facilitated Ms. Reiser’s appointment to the Board. At the time, Ms. Reiser and I had only been in an intimate relationship for a relatively short period of time and I believed that she was committed to the fundamental moral and philosophical principals on which CSC was founded. 

Unfortunately, in retrospect, I am now aware that at the time I made the recommendation Ms. Reiser was engaging me in the “honeymoon phase” commonly identified in the “wheel” model of intimate partner violence. What followed, in the months after, was a classic presentation of coercive control and intimate partner abuse that, with the support of family and friends, I was only able to extricate myself from over the last several weeks. From verbal abuse, and psychological manipulation to threats of personal and professional harm, Ms. Reiser repeatedly utilized her background in mental health to engage in “gaslighting” tactics against me, all while taking terrible advantage of me financially, including, but not limited to, such behaviors as removing funds from my accounts without my prior knowledge or consent. Again, like so many perpetrators of intimate partner abuse, while she was engaging in these behaviors, Ms. Reiser successfully isolated me and “fed” estrangements between myself and my support system, to ensure that I would remain susceptible to her control. 

While I am working hard, with the support of friends and professionals, to heal from the emotional and psychological harm Ms. Reiser’s behaviors caused to me, and working with my attorney to pursue all available remedies for the aforesaid financial improprieties, I wanted to bring these issues to your attention so that you may take whatever steps may be appropriate to address the impact of same on Ms. Reiser’s propriety as a Board Member for CSC. It is my belief that her continued participation on the Board of Directors threatens and undermines the credibility of CSC. 

I know that you, personally, and CSC, as an organization, are deeply committed to increasing awareness of intimate partner violence and supporting those who have been impacted by it. The presence of an individual, on the Board of Directors, who engages in the very behaviors that the CSC was founded to prevent and eradicate is deeply problematic. Although I have no desire to involve you, or any third parties in issues arising from the end of a relationship, my conscience required that I bring this matter to your attention so that you may take whatever steps you deem appropriate to protect the Board and CSC mission. 

Can you please forward this email to Linie Chang Rand, I don’t have her email. 

Thank you for your attention and consideration.  

Respectfully-

Louie 

In another court document, Louie reveals, similarly to what Glenn did, that Vanessa would locate him and “fed” estrangements between Louie and his support system, to ensure he remains under her control. 

The court document states that two days later Vanessa contacted Louie and in a moment of weakness he responded to her. He says that “she was recording our conversation and trying to convince me not to pursue my claims for the ring and money.”

Two weeks later, Vanessa files a civil action/complaint about keeping a business that Louie made for her. She asks for control of the business that he made for her

Louie files a suit right afterwards and states he is only filing because she wont return the ring and money owed to him. He says she has engaged in sociopathic behavior to financially and emotionally harm him, a longstanding and well documented pattern of behavior that she has engaged in throughout her romantic life with past lovers. 

In Louie’s suit filed following her suit, Louie talks about what happened when they were in Massachusetts following an argument, Louie says she gave him back the engagement ring, claiming, as she did in May 2019, that she was not going to marry Louie without him giving her money. Louie says he was not going to fall for her extortion again and told her he was going to leave the hotel and go home. He offered to drive home with her but asked her to stay elsewhere that evening as he wanted to discuss the breakup with his sons without her present. Louie says she refused to come with him or stay elsewhere so he drove away. Louie then called the police and alerted them to the situation as he did not want to be in an altercation with her in case she showed up to his house. After driving off, several hours later, the ex-girlfriends son calls Louie and says that Vanessa wanted to be picked up at the hotel. He turned around to find her and 90 minutes later, Vanessa’s son called again and said she found a ride. He says when he returned home – Vanessa was already in the driveway of his house, waiting to take items out. And that Vanessa put her son up to calling him simply to waste his time.

For the last few years Vanessa Reiser has made the world believe Louie Ruelas is a narcissist. So what exactly is a Narcissist?

Narcissistic personality disorder involves a pattern of self-centered, arrogant thinking and behavior, a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, and an excessive need for admiration. Others often describe people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding. This way of thinking and behaving surfaces in every area of the narcissist’s life: from work and friendships to family and love relationships.

People with narcissistic personality disorder are extremely resistant to changing their behavior, even when it’s causing them problems. Their tendency is to turn the blame on to others. What’s more, they are extremely sensitive and react badly to even the slightest criticisms, disagreements, or perceived slights, which they view as personal attacks. For the people in the narcissist’s life, it’s often easier just to go along with their demands to avoid the coldness and rages.

We are told from former friends of Vanessa Reiser that Vanessa hated Louie Ruelas ex-fiancee Paula, and would talk about her obsessively but reached out to her when she and Louie broke up so that they could essentially “frame him.” Our sources say she reached out to Paula one time prior to ask about her ring.

This is still an ongoing case but in 2021 a Judge ordered that Louie keeps the office computer after it wipes off her info and that Vanessa keeps her website/business, pays Louie 20k, keeps the remaining funds in her account and that neither will lie about the other, make derogatory statements about the other, harass the other. Something Vanessa has failed to follow.

Vanessa Reiser has now given herself the title of a Narcissism expert and calls herself a “solution-focused “psychotherapist offering sessions despite her history. She even recently move to New Jersey with sources telling us, “she is trying to get on the show. It would be a dream come true if she was cast.”

That’s not all – we recently got insight by multiple AllAboutTRH readers that Vanessa Reiser would go into the social chat app clubhouse on Dave Quinn’s club and would always speak in the room.

Vanessa recently made headlines after she alleged that one of her patients were actually hired to “spy” on her by Louie Ruelas. She filed a restraining order against him despite being the one who is talking about him daily and contacting anyone affiliated with Teresa Giudice. Prior to providing the restraining order to Page Six, Vanessa Reiser called former RHONJ friend of, Kim D and told her that she was going to be putting a story out there and to spread the word. Not something a normal victim of abuse would do.

Vanessa Reiser is allegedly behind the video leaks of Louie Ruelas and she mostly engages on Melissa Gorga, Melissa Gorgas sisters Lysa Simpson and Kim as well as Teresa Giudice’s brother Joe Gorgas Instagram account commenting on each post. She also comments on Melissa and Joe’s daughter Antonia’s Instagram account. Melissa’s sisters will comment back on her page and are following her as well.

Vanessa Reiser has also developed a close relationship with Kim D after spilling tea on Louie Ruelas. She smiled as she walked Kim D’s recent fashion show. Vanessa Reiser is a mom of one who spends her days raising awareness for narcissistic abuse despite it being clear she has a history of narcissistic traits with her ex-partners. She has an RHONJ highlight on her Instagram page and continues to befriend anyone who isn’t a fan of Louie Ruelas and Teresa Giudice.

EXCLUSIVE Timeline: Melissa Gorga Promises To Put Drama Behind With Teresa Giudice

by Roxanne April 5, 2023
written by Roxanne

Melissa Gorga has admitted that season 13 of RHONJ became the “lowest of the low” with sister-in-law Teresa Giudice. Despite that – there was a point that Melissa Gorga acted as if she did want to move forward with Teresa Giudice. 

On the most recent episode of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, we watch as Joe Gorga makes a huge allegation when speaking to Melissa Gorga regarding Teresa Giudice and her close friend Dina Manzo’s relationship. Joe Gorga accuses Dina’s husband David (sic) Cantin of calling Joe Gorga because they are “friendly” to tell him that he had a business go wrong with Teresa’s fiancee, Louie Ruelas. 

Our sources close to the cast tell us that Joe Gorgas claims are absolutely not true saying,

“Dave has met Joe Gorga once and that was at Teresa’s engagement party. He wouldn’t even consider himself friendly with Joe. And no one has ever called Dave, David like Joe did on the show. The allegation made by Joe Gorga is absolutely not true.”

In another scene, Dolores Catania and Jennifer Aydin proudly reveal that they have been asked to be Teresa Giudice’s bridesmaid which makes Melissa Gorga extremely angry. Melissa continues to poke Dolores about how weird it is that she would walk in Teresa’s wedding all while saying Dina (Manzo) Cantin dropped out of the wedding and that is the only reason Teresa is asking her.

In this exclusive timeline – we found out that the Turkish event happened on July 14th, 2022 but that on July 12th, 2022, two days before the event, right after the Jersey Shore incident – Melissa had sent text messages that we reported last month to Teresa Giudice, Joe Gorga and Louie Ruelas.

In the text, Melissa says she wants to put everything behind them and just be happy. Melissa Gorga also says that she and Joe Gorga are very happy for Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas. Teresa responds that she is sorry for anything she has done that has contributed to this space between them.

Text Messages Between Teresa Giudice & Melissa Gorga
Text Messages Between Teresa Giudice & Melissa Gorga

Melissa sent the text message on July 12th and Teresa Giudice responded at 1am on July 13th. 

The Turkish coffee event was on July 14th. The same day Melissa acted furious that Dolores agreed to walk in Teresa’s wedding and it’s also the same event that Melissa accuses Teresa Giudice of only asking Dolores because Dina Manzo isn’t walking.

What was shocking is that Melissa Gorga never mentions anything about these texts to the ladies during the Turkish event. She and Joe Gorga tend to talk about things that happen outside of the show with Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas and if Melissa was being sincere and wanting to make peace – why wouldn’t she mention this or mention Teresa’s response?

Are you surprised by the timeline?

What allegation did Joe Gorga make about Teresa Giudice and Dina Manzo's relationship?

Joe Gorga alleged that Dina Manzo’s husband, David Cantin, called him to inform him about a business issue involving Teresa Giudice’s fiancé, Louie Ruelas.

Did Joe Gorga's claims about David Cantin's involvement with Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas turn out to be true?

No, according to sources close to the cast, Joe Gorga’s claims are not true. They state that David Cantin has only met Joe Gorga once at Teresa’s engagement party and does not consider himself friendly with him.

Did Melissa Gorga mention the text messages she sent to Teresa Giudice during the Turkish event?

No, Melissa Gorga did not mention anything about the text messages to the ladies during the Turkish event. Despite sending a message expressing her desire to put everything behind them and be happy, she did not bring up this topic or mention Teresa’s response.

AllAboutTRH EXCLUSIVE: Melissa Gorga Was Asked To Be A Bridesmaid in Teresa’s Wedding While Filming Season 13 But Declined

by Roxanne August 15, 2022
written by Roxanne

So much Jersey drama, and the season hasn’t even started! Season 13 officially wrapped up a few days prior to Teresa Giudice’s wedding. Melissa and Joe Gorga decided not to come to the wedding, and Joe Gorga basically blamed it on the fact that Melissa wasn’t asked to be in the wedding, nor was his kids. He also said he “barely” was asked, explaining, “Let’s go back to the reunion. She did this. This was all on her. This is what she really wanted. She didn’t want [Melissa] in the wedding. She didn’t want any of my children in the wedding. She barely wanted me. I was asked after all this information went out to be in the wedding, and that’s what saddens me. And I knew that. And when I left that reunion, I looked at my wife, and I was like, ‘Wow, she hates us. I’ve never seen her like this.’ I said, ‘It’s terrible.”

Teresa Giudice has yet to speak out since her wedding, and we have only heard from Melissa and Joe Gorga.

Sources close to producers tell us EXCLUSIVELY that Melissa Gorga was asked to be in the wedding, “Teresa initially was going to have only a few people walk in her wedding. When season 13 started, everyone had made peace, and all was going well. Teresa decided to ask Dolores, Jennifer & Melissa to walk in the wedding. Teresa admitted it was late for her to ask, but she would love for her close girlfriends to be by her side, and it was a peace offering for Melissa so they can just move forward. Melissa declined, saying she is not walking and Teresa should stick to her initial decision.”

As far as Dolores and Jennifer? They were thrilled, “they understand things change with weddings all the time, and if she now wanted a bigger bridal party, they were happy to be a part of it. They love her and support her and just wanted her to have a great day since it’s her big day. “

And what about Joe Gorga saying he “barely” was asked? Another insider tells AllAboutTRH exclusively, “he was asked in the beginning. There was no barely about it. Louie was genuine and sweet with him. He has always been very respectful to Joe Gorga. Joe Gorga accepted and was excited about it. A few days later, he declined because he realized Melissa wasn’t asked. Louie respected his decision and had no hard feelings.”

I have a feeling these two families will have a hard time recovering from this.

Do you think the Gorga’s should have just went?

Lindsay Hubbard Claims West Wilson “Manipulated” Amanda Batula Into Romance And Says He “Initiated This F***ery”

Lindsay Hubbard is not holding back when it comes to West Wilson.

Lindsay Hubbard Claims West Wilson “Manipulated” Amanda Batula Into Romance And Says He “Initiated This F***ery”
Lindsay Hubbard Claims West Wilson “Manipulated” Amanda Batula Into Romance And Says He “Initiated This F***ery” 65

The Summer House star took to Threads on Monday, June 15, where she slammed West for comments he made on his podcast, accused him of repeatedly trying to hurt the show, and claimed he “manipulated” Amanda Batula into their controversial romance.

Lindsay’s latest posts came after West made headlines for saying on his Show Me Something podcast that he hoped the New York Knicks would lose Game 5 so that Game 6 would air at the same time as the Summer House Season 10 bonus episode. West said he was hoping the basketball game would distract viewers from the episode, which comes after weeks of backlash over his romance with Amanda.

Lindsay clearly did not appreciate the comments.

“Good morning! ☀️ Hope everyone slept well last night. I know I did,” Lindsay wrote via Threads. “Woke up with some more thoughts if anyone cares: 1) Maybe West Wilson should go on his podcast and publicly apologize to me for using my daughter as click bate, and a decoy, to distract from his secret relationship with Amanda [Batula], instead of talking s*** about the show he was so fortunate for me to put him on.”

Lindsay continued, accusing West of trying to damage her career and the show more than once.

“2) West has tried to threaten my career / show now 3 times and it’s quite frankly, disgusting. No other word to describe it,” she wrote.

In the comments, Lindsay gave more detail about what she meant. She claimed the first instance happened after she welcomed her daughter, Gemma, with now-ex Turner Kufe in December 2024.

“He went on a podcast after I had Gemma and told everyone there’s ‘no way’ I could come back to [Summer House],” Lindsay wrote. “We should have known then, he’s not smart, but here we are.”

Lindsay then accused West of threatening the future of the friend group and the show through his relationship with Amanda.

“Then, with his diabolical decision making skills to manipulate Amanda into dating him and threaten the status of our friend group and future of the show. And now, trying to get people not to watch Tuesday’s episode (that he participated in btw). So that’s the kind of dude he is… in case anyone still had questions.”

After some fans questioned Lindsay’s use of the word “manipulated,” she doubled down and explained exactly why she used it.

“I’m on an airplane atm otherwise I would post a video.. but I say West “manipulated” Amanda because HE is the one who initiated this fuckery. HE is the one who said “hey uhhh is it me or like do we like each other?” Or whatever tf his hot dog smelling ass said. Yes, Amanda is a grown ass woman and makes her own big girl decisions. And yes, she needs to deal with those big girl consequences. You will see that convo btwn me and her in tomorrow’s Aftermath episode”

West has been in the hot seat all season after confirming his romance with Amanda in March. The relationship shocked the Summer House cast because Amanda had recently separated from Kyle Cooke, while West previously dated Ciara Miller, Amanda’s former close friend.

The fallout became one of the biggest storylines of the Season 10 reunion, with Ciara accusing Amanda and West of betraying her and Kyle having to process his estranged wife moving on with someone in their friend group.

During the reunion, West explained how his relationship with Amanda shifted from friendship to something more, saying he looked at Amanda one night and asked whether he was crazy or if something was happening between them.

That appears to be the moment Lindsay is referring to when she says West “initiated this fuckery.”

Ahead of the bonus episode, West expressed frustration on his podcast over the fact that the Summer House drama would continue airing for another week.

“This could be the best f***ing thing ever,” West said during the Friday, June 12 episode of Show Me Something.

He explained that he thought the reunion drama was finally ending before Bravo announced a bonus episode.

“I thought [by] Tuesday … I thought I was going to get to catch my breath and we were all moving on, and they were like, ‘Bonus episode next week.’ I was like, If the Spurs win Saturday and they go back to Madison Square Garden and they play Game 6, it will be Tuesday night [at] the same time they air this f***ing, goddamn bonus episode,” West said.

He continued, “I will be the happiest person in the motherf***ing world.” He then said if this happens he would pop champagne to celebrate.

The Knicks ultimately defeated the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5, meaning West did not get the scheduling conflict he was hoping for.

Lindsay first clapped back at West on Sunday, June 14, calling him out directly.

“West Wilson: you are trash. Trying to get people to not watch our show that I brought you on, you should move immediately,” Lindsay wrote.

She followed up with another post, adding, “Brother, you get paid for that episode. Just be thankful you still have a paycheck from our show.”

Dorit Kemsley is not closing the door on Kyle Richards.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is opening up about where things stand with Kyle after their friendship became one of the most talked about fallouts on the show. While Dorit and Kyle were once extremely close, their relationship has been strained for several seasons, with both women feeling hurt and misunderstood.

During a recent appearance on Kelly Ripa’s Let’s Talk Off Camera podcast, Dorit made it clear that she would like to see the friendship move into a healthier place.

“I would love to see Kyle and I be able to get to a place that, you know, we really can put our differences aside or hash it out, whichever,” Dorit said.

Dorit and Kyle’s friendship has gone through major changes on RHOBH. The two were once part of the show’s closer inner circle, but as their personal lives became more complicated, so did their bond.

Kyle has been dealing with her own separation from Mauricio Umansky, while Dorit has been navigating her split from PK Kemsley, financial headlines, her memoir Unburdened and the emotional aftermath of her home invasion.

Their friendship issues came to a head as Dorit felt Kyle had pulled away, while Kyle seemed frustrated by Dorit’s expectations. What once looked like a solid friendship became one of the more fractured relationships on Beverly Hills.

Still, Kemsley says she originally thought she and Kyle were entering the season in a better place.

“I thought we were going into the season, really, I thought we were going in, in that place,” she said.

That comment gives more insight into Dorit’s frustration. From her perspective, she believed she and Kyle had a chance to move forward, only for old wounds, group conversations and unresolved feelings to surface once filming began.

For long-running Housewives friendships, that pattern is nothing new. A friendship can feel repaired off camera, but once the season starts, confessionals, cast trips and outside opinions can reopen everything.

Kemsley did not promise that she and Kyle will fully reconcile, but she made it clear that she believes repair is possible if both sides want it.

“I think that there’s, if both people want to, there’s always room for, you know, making up and making things better,” Dorit said.

Dorit’s comments come after she recently revealed that she and Erika Jayne have been texting again and that their friendship feels warm. However, she previously said she and Kyle had not yet spoken.

Kyle Cooke is clearing the air after fans started spiraling over photos of him laughing with estranged wife Amanda Batula.

The Summer House star took to Instagram Stories on Saturday, June 13, after photos surfaced of him and Amanda smiling, laughing and linking arms while leaving the In the City reunion taping earlier this week.

Naturally, the pictures had fans questioning what was really going on between the estranged couple, especially after months of drama surrounding their separation, Amanda’s romance with West Wilson and the emotional Summer House reunion.

Kyle decided to address the speculation directly.

“Alright, some of you have your tinfoil hats on, so I’m going to respond to the picture of me and Amanda laughing and smiling as we walk out from the In the City reunion,” Kyle said in a video shared via Instagram Stories. “It was a pretty chaotic, action-packed reunion for a season 1 show, and you guys have a lot to look forward to, not only in the season but the reunion.”

Kyle and Amanda were photographed on Thursday, June 11, as they exited the studio together. In the pictures, the pair appeared relaxed and friendly, which quickly got fans talking given everything that has played out between them recently.

Kyle explained that the reunion itself was intense and that both he and Amanda had been put on the spot.

“Amanda was in the hot seat, and she opened up a lot more than I would say she did in Summer House,” Kyle explained, referring to the three-part Summer House Season 10 reunion that finished airing Tuesday, June 9. “I was in the hot seat, a lot of people were in the hot seat and we all decided to go get a drink together. Like, group therapy after you, kind of, leave it all out there.”

According to Kyle, the viral laughing moment was not a sign of anything deeper. It was simply the two of them joking about how it would look if photographers caught them walking out together.

He continued, “Amanda and I were headed down the elevator, walking out the door and just kind of laughing, like, ‘Can you imagine if there’s a photographer that captures us walking out together?’ And then, boom, that’s exactly what happened. That causes us to laugh even harder, and yes, that’s all that there was to it, guys. That’s all there was to it, my God.”

The clarification comes after Kyle and Amanda announced their separation in January following four years of marriage. Just two months later, Amanda confirmed her romance with Summer House costar West Wilson, who previously dated her former close friend Ciara Miller.

That situation became one of the biggest Bravo scandals of the season. Amanda and West were grilled throughout the Summer House reunion about their relationship timeline, while Ciara made it clear she felt betrayed by both her ex and her former best friend.

Kyle also had to process Amanda moving on with someone from their own friend group. He has been open about how painful the situation has been, especially as he learned more about Amanda and West’s connection.

Still, Kyle’s latest comments suggest that despite the messy split and complicated emotions, he and Amanda are able to have light moments together.

Crystal Kung Minkoff Admits She “Dreams” About Returning To RHOBH In A Friend Role

Crystal Kung Minkoff is not shutting the door on a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills return.

The former RHOBH star is addressing the recent buzz that she could be open to coming back to the franchise two years after exiting the show. While Crystal says the conversation was not meant to become a huge deal, she admits she is in a very different place now than she was when she first left.

While attending the 33rd Annual Race to Erase MS Gala on June 5, Crystal spoke exclusively with E! News about why she recently said she would be open to a conversation about returning to Beverly Hills.

“I think I just needed some time and Cynthia Bailey is my co-host of Humble Brag and so she saw rumors out there and she had to ask me so it became sort of a thing,” Crystal said. “And it’s always one of those topics where Housewives in the past are asked these questions.”

Crystal previously addressed the rumors on her Humble Brag podcast with Cynthia Bailey after fans began speculating that she could be brought back for RHOBH Season 16.

At the time, Crystal made it clear that she is finally open to the idea again, though she admitted the friend role sounds especially appealing.

“Would I go back? I always dream about the friend role now,” she added. “Like, you’ve made that the ideal role. But it just depends on the cast. But yeah, I think I’d be ready. I think I’m finally ready.”

Now, Crystal is explaining that her mindset has shifted after having time away from the show.

“And for me it took a couple years to even think about doing it again but now I feel myself this year thinking, ‘Oh, what would I have done?’” she added. “I didn’t think about that in the year past. So, I think it was just that. It wasn’t a big deal but it kind of became a thing.”

Crystal joined The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in Season 11 and remained on the show through Season 13. In 2024, she confirmed she would not be returning for Season 14. At the time, her exit surprised fans, especially because Crystal had finally started to open up more during her final season.

Since leaving the show, Crystal has stayed connected to Bravo through her podcast with Cynthia and her appearance on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.

She also said her podcast has helped her feel more comfortable being herself, which is one of the reasons she would consider stepping back into the Housewives world.

“I just love Bravo and I love the whole experience,” Crystal explained, “and I just feel through Humble Brag I’m comfortable being myself so that’s all.”

Until then, Crystal is enjoying RHOBH from the other side, as a viewer.

“So, I used to watch Housewives, a few different franchises, and then I just stopped watching it completely when I was on the show because I just knew all the wizards,” she continued. “And now I get to enjoy the show sort of knowing a little more BTS.”

Amanda Batula and West Wilson Confirm Romance After Weeks of Rumors

West Wilson Says He Knew It “Was Gonna Look Bad” When He Didn’t Follow Amanda Batula At Reunion

West Wilson is explaining why he stayed seated when Amanda Batula walked off stage during the Summer House reunion.

The Summer House star addressed the awkward reunion moment on the June 5 episode of his Show Me Something podcast, after viewers watched Amanda excuse herself during Part 2 of the three-part reunion while the cast grilled her and West about their controversial romance.

Amanda and West’s relationship has been one of the biggest storylines of the season after the two confirmed their romance in March. The situation shocked fans and cast members because Amanda had recently separated from husband Kyle Cooke, while West previously dated Amanda’s former close friend Ciara Miller.

During the reunion, Amanda became emotional and walked off stage as the cast continued questioning the timeline of her relationship with West and how the two handled it with the people closest to them.

But instead of immediately following Amanda, West stayed seated until Kyle, Amanda’s ex-husband, encouraged him to go after her.

Now, West says there was a reason he did not jump up right away.

“The Amanda getting up part, I knew it was gonna look bad, but we talked before. We were like, ‘Ok, it’s going to be annoying as f–k for everyone there if we use the word we the whole time.’ Cause we have individual friendships and relationships with all these people,” Wilson explained.

According to West, he and Amanda agreed ahead of time that they would each answer for themselves rather than constantly presenting a united front.

“We should answer for ourselves. Let’s not speak for each other. Because I think that’s a corny ass look to try to play the ‘we’ card the whole time. And we agreed, hold it down as individuals. So she got up, I was like, one of us needs to be on this stage,” he said.

West said he knew Amanda needed a moment, but he felt one of them had to remain on stage to continue facing the group.

“She’s a big girl. She was gonna go take a sec and come back, I got yelled at enough times, so I got up. But it would have been weirder if she got up and Kyle got up. Like, Kyle almost went. It’s just so f—ing weird. But I didn’t want them all on stage without two of us. I feel like that’s a worse look,” West continued.

The moment stood out because Kyle, who is separated from Amanda, appeared more visibly concerned in that instant than West did. That led to major viewer reactions online, with many fans questioning why Amanda’s estranged husband had to prompt her current boyfriend to check on her.

West, however, insists he was not ignoring Amanda’s emotions.

“I knew she was fine,” he added.

West also said he was prepared for the reunion to get ugly, especially given the backlash surrounding his relationship with Amanda and the hurt it caused within the group.

“There’s a lot of that. I’ve done three of these now, I know how they’re gonna go. It’s not my style of conflict or communication, but I’d be lying if I was like, ‘Oh, I wasn’t prepared for people to say mean stuff,'” he said.

The reunion has been especially brutal for West and Amanda, who have had to answer questions from Ciara, Kyle and the rest of the cast about when their relationship started, why they kept it quiet and whether they understood how deeply their choices affected the friend group.

Ciara has been vocal about feeling betrayed, accusing Amanda of not being honest with her and claiming West wanted to embarrass her. Kyle, meanwhile, has had to process his estranged wife moving on with someone from their inner circle.

Amanda Batula is admitting she stopped watching Summer House after her romance with West Wilson went public, and Kyle Cooke is not impressed.

During part three of Bravo’s extended and uncensored Summer House reunion on Peacock, Amanda revealed that she had not been keeping up with the season as the fallout from her relationship with West continued to play out on screen.

“I haven’t been watching the show, but I watched past seasons,” Amanda said. “I have not watched this.”

The confession immediately raised eyebrows among the cast, especially because Amanda and West’s relationship has been one of the biggest storylines of the season. Their romance shocked fans and cast members after Amanda announced her separation from Kyle in January, and West had previously dated Amanda’s former close friend, Ciara Miller.

Kyle, who was married to Amanda for four years before their split, was visibly frustrated by Amanda’s admission.

“Do you plan on watching?” Kyle asked.

He then admitted that Amanda avoiding the season did not sit right with him.

“It kinda feels like a cop-out not to watch,” Kyle said.

Amanda insisted that she does plan to watch the episodes eventually and said she understood why the cast had strong feelings about her and West’s joint statement in March, where they confirmed their platonic connection had turned romantic.

“I will watch after this reunion or at some point,” Amanda said.

She then clarified that she was not trying to make herself the victim.

“I’m not playing victim again,” Amanda said.

That is when Ciara, West’s ex and Amanda’s former best friend, jumped in.

“Nobody is saying that,” Ciara fired back. “I think it’s just a reflection of how much you don’t care.”

Amanda pushed back and insisted that was not true.

“I do care,” Amanda replied.

Amanda then explained why she stopped watching, saying the online reaction became too much for her to handle.

“The internet has been dragging me,” Amanda said.

She explained that watching the episodes made her feel like she could already predict what fans were going to say about her once each scene aired.

“When I watch the episodes, I can already pinpoint everything that everyone is going to say about me online,” Amanda shared. “And that has been very difficult for me to deal with.”

Amanda said the backlash eventually became so overwhelming that she had to stop watching altogether.

“I’ve stopped watching the episodes because I cannot handle the idea of thinking about all the nasty s*** people are going to say [online] about me afterwards. I had to stop watching them.”

Still, the cast did not seem fully convinced by Amanda’s explanation. For Kyle, the issue appeared to be bigger than just Amanda protecting her mental health from online criticism. From his perspective, Amanda and West not watching meant they were not fully facing what the rest of the cast had to watch and process.

Kyle later made his feelings clear during a Live Chats conversation on Threads.

“The fact that Amanda and West didn’t watch pissed me off,” Kyle wrote.

The reunion has been a brutal one for Amanda and West, who have been grilled over their timeline, their secrecy and how their romance affected both Kyle and Ciara. Ciara has repeatedly made it clear that she felt betrayed by Amanda, while Kyle has had to process his estranged wife moving on with someone from their own friend group.

Tom Schwartz is getting honest about the end of an era.

The Vanderpump Rules alum opened up on The Valley After Show about TomTom being put up for sale, admitting that even though he was not completely shocked by the news, the reality of letting go of the West Hollywood restaurant and bar still hurts.

TomTom opened in 2018 with Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd at the helm, while Schwartz and Tom Sandoval served as the namesakes and minority partners. The bar quickly became a major part of the Vanderpump Rules universe, with fans watching Schwartz and Sandoval step into the hospitality world under Lisa and Ken’s guidance.

Now, after years of ups and downs, TomTom officially hit the real estate market in March 2026.

He called the closure a “sign of the times” and said he was not caught off guard.

“Lisa and Ken called me, and we all kinda knew,” Schwartz recalled, mentioning “dwindling sales” as part of the reality behind the decision.

Still, knowing it was coming did not make it any less emotional.

“I’m effing sad. There’s such a big part of my heart and soul that’s in that place,” Schwartz said.

Although Schwartz only owned a small percentage of TomTom, he said the bar meant far more to him than the number on paper.

“I technically have my puny 5 percent, but it means the world to me. Like, it meant 100 percent of my life for so long. We put a lot of our f–king blood, sweat, and tears in that place. Like, I really poured my heart out every time I went in there. But, yeah, I’ll make a few bucks when they sell it, which will be nice.”

TomTom’s sale comes after Schwartz and Sandoval’s other bar, Schwartz & Sandy’s, closed its doors in December 2024. With both businesses now behind him, Schwartz is being very honest about how difficult the restaurant and bar industry can be.

When Jason Caperna joked that he was not “in the market” to buy TomTom, Schwartz warned him against getting into the restaurant business unless he truly loved it.

“It’s a nightmare, it’s an all-consuming,” Schwartz explained. “Just up at dawn, stressed at night. It’s like, even when things are going good, it’s just… If, like, if you don’t love it, I don’t know, man. But I would never open my own bar or put my name on a lease ever again. Or finance it.”

That is a major shift from where Schwartz once saw his life going. At one point, he believed hospitality would be his long-term career path.

“I mean, that was, like, my path. I’m gonna be a restaurateur. We wanted to, like, license Schwartz & Sandy’s. We were looking at spots in, like, Las Vegas. And, like, OK, this is gonna be my life,” Schwartz said.

But after everything he has been through, Schwartz says the experience changed him.

“I’ve learned so much, and I became a better person for sure. Whatever little residual Peter Pan Syndrome I had lingering in my system is just gone now. It shaped me into the man I am today, and I still have a lot of growing to do. I’m a late bloomer. But, like, it’s sad. It feels like the end of an era.”

Schwartz also gave an update on where he stands with Lisa Vanderpump today, making it clear that despite TomTom being for sale, there is still a relationship there.

“Lisa checks in on me,” he said. “We’ll FaceTime from time to time. They’ve got an empire they’re building, a new empire in Las Vegas in the desert. She actually just invited me to come out to the opening for her new hotel in Las Vegas, which is gonna be so chic, so fabulous. But I can’t go.”

Schwartz also addressed his relationship with Sandoval after years of friendship, business stress and the fallout from Scandoval.

“Tom is doing great. We’ve reestablished our friendship. Um, there’s no lingering resentment anymore. We’re cool. We’re good. I mean, he’s family to me. We just needed a long break, which I think everyone can understand.”

Ciara Miller is done biting her tongue.

The Summer House star is opening up in a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar about her fallout with West Wilson and Amanda Batula, and she is making it clear that her days of protecting people are over.

Ciara’s friendship with Amanda and her past romance with West became one of the biggest storylines of the Summer House reunion after Amanda and West confirmed their relationship. The romance stunned fans because West previously dated Ciara, while Amanda was once one of Ciara’s closest friends.

But according to Ciara, it was not until she rewatched the season before the reunion that she saw things more clearly.

“It was in her rewatch before the reunion that Ciara saw West’s chicanery,” Harper’s Bazaar noted.

Ciara said one scene in particular changed the way she viewed West. In the scene, West tells Ciara that he resents her because of how the internet held him accountable after their breakup.

“I didn’t realize how much he hated me,” Ciara said.

At the time, Ciara apologized to West on camera for not being there for him while he dealt with online backlash. But after watching the season back, she now believes his relationship with Amanda may be connected to that resentment.

According to the interview, Ciara now realizes this “might be the reason he’s dating Amanda: as revenge.”

Ciara seemed to take the realization in stride, adding, “He got me good.”

She then referenced Monaleo’s lyrics, saying, “He can lie, cheat, cover it up, and do it again.”

Ciara’s theory lines up with what she said during the Summer House reunion, where she accused West of being with Amanda to hurt her.

In the reunion trailer, Ciara told Amanda, “[West] wants to embarrass me. He wants to get his last little word in and I hope it works. He’s with you to spite me!”

But while Ciara has plenty to say about West, she seems even more hurt by Amanda’s role in the situation.

The Harper’s Bazaar piece questioned why Amanda would risk a friendship over a man she had previously said was not “marriage material.” Ciara summed up how she now views the friendship.

“I was always a friend to her, and she was never a friend to me,” Ciara said.

Ciara explained that outside of filming, Amanda did not make much effort to grow their friendship. At the time, Ciara said she did not take it personally because she understood how draining filming could be.

“I’m the type of person where I don’t need to see you a million times to know where our friendship stands,” Ciara shared.

But after everything that happened with Amanda and West, Ciara says she sees Amanda differently.

“She’s ‘the victim.’ She ‘just didn’t know,’ she’s ‘so oblivious,’ she ‘wants love,’ is she supposed to be alone forever?” Ciara said.

Ciara then made it clear she is not interested in going backward, but she is also no longer staying silent.

“I’m not going to go back and rehash the past, but everything now moving forward is on the cutting-room floor. Silence is an option. But I know things. I see things. I’m done protecting people by not saying anything. It’s really like a don’t-fuck-with-me era. If you want it, you can get it. Don’t fuck with me.”

The comments are some of Ciara’s strongest yet and show just how deeply the betrayal affected her. What started as a messy Bravo romance has turned into a larger conversation about loyalty, race, friendship and who gets protected inside certain friend groups.

Ciara also spoke about interracial friendships and how they require openness and a willingness to release bias, similar to interracial romantic relationships.

For now, Ciara says her circle is getting even tighter.

“I’ve always kept my circle small for a reason. Now it’s even smaller,” she said.

As for whether fans will see Ciara back on Summer House next season, she said she is not sure yet. She has a busy summer ahead, including a five week gig in Fiji as the cohost of Love Island: Aftersun.

Then in August, Ciara is set to film Dancing With the Stars, and she is already preparing seriously for it.

“I’m going to get back in the gym. I’m going to start running. I have to work on my endurance, my core strength, and really prioritizing stretching. I’m treating this so seriously,” Ciara said.

Ciara Miller is getting brutally honest about where things stand with Amanda Batula.

The Summer House star opened up to Harper’s Bazaar about the end of her friendship with Amanda, and she did not hold back when explaining why she now feels the relationship was one-sided.

Ciara and Amanda’s friendship imploded after Amanda began dating West Wilson, who previously had a romantic history with Ciara. The situation became one of the biggest storylines of the Summer House reunion, with Ciara making it clear that she felt betrayed by both her ex and her former close friend.

Now, Ciara is speaking more deeply about why Amanda’s actions hurt her so much.

“Everyone’s always there for [Amanda]. She never has to be there for anyone. She is always the damsel in distress, always the victim,” Ciara said.

Ciara explained that after six years of friendship, she does not feel Amanda ever truly had to show up for her in the same way.

“In the six years, I don’t think she’s really ever had to be there for me. And not that a friendship is based on reciprocity, but it’s now really clear that there was no type of reciprocity on her side. I tried to hang out outside of filming, check on her, speak life into her,” Ciara shared.

The comments cut deep because Ciara had previously described herself as Amanda’s champion. During the Summer House reunion, Miller confronted Amanda directly over her relationship with West, saying she could not believe she was sitting there upset that Amanda was involved with her ex after years of supporting her.

Amanda and West confirmed their romance in March after weeks of speculation. Amanda had announced her separation from Kyle Cooke in January, while West previously dated Ciara in 2023. The timing and the secrecy surrounding the relationship caused major fallout within the friend group.

Miller has accused Amanda of not being honest when asked directly about West, and the reunion revealed private text messages where Ciara questioned Amanda about whether anything was going on.

Amanda later admitted she should have been more upfront from the beginning.

Ciara also reflected on another painful friendship experience from her past. She shared that this is not the first time she has felt failed by a white woman in friendship.

Ciara recalled being close to a classmate in nursing school, saying the two would have sleepovers and study dates.

“We were thick as thieves,” Ciara said.

But when the classmate got married, Ciara said she invited every girl from their class to be a bridesmaid except her. Ciara was the only Black friend in the group.

That experience, combined with what happened with Amanda, has changed how Ciara plans to move through friendships going forward.

“Now [after the Amanda betrayal], I’ll wear my armor differently,” Ciara said.

This week on Roxanne & Shantel, we’re breaking down Love Island episodes 6 and 7, and yes, we’re asking the important questions.

A past Islander joins the conversation and spills on how contestants try, and sometimes fail, to keep their breath fresh in the villa. We also get the truth about what happens when Islanders need to pass gas, and let’s just say, clenching plays a major role.

Then we get into the drama, the shifting villa dynamics, and why Bryce and Trinity might just be the new couple to watch.
