Bronwyn Newport is getting propped out not for her bling, but for her honesty.
During a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Sept. 23, Bronwyn opened up about her controversial $4 million diamond necklace, the same one she claimed was a gift from her husband, Todd Bradley, for their 10th anniversary. As it turns out, the 170-carat Norman Silverman piece was never hers to begin with.
Host Andy Cohen didn’t shy away from addressing the elephant, or rather, the diamonds, in the room. But instead of criticism, he offered commendation.
“I loved what you said about that. I thought it was really great. I thought you totally owned it,” Andy told Bronwyn. “We rarely hear someone saying, ‘You know what? I was trying to look cool.’ … Much props for that.”
Bronwyn’s response was disarmingly honest:
“I do wanna look cool. Who doesn’t? Yeah.”
Even fellow guest Madelaine Petsch, known for her role on Riverdale, applauded Bronwyn’s candor.
“I am all for people coming forward after lying. I think that that’s wonderful, truly,” she said.
But Bronwyn’s story isn’t just about a necklace, it’s also about the dynamics of her marriage and public image. When asked whether she and Todd discussed the over-the-top gift beforehand, she admitted:
“Todd and I did have a conversation. Todd was just not a big fan of how ostentatious that necklace looked; that’s not Todd’s style.”
And while the dazzling Norman Silverman piece didn’t make it home, Bronwyn clarified that Todd still came through for their milestone:
“I actually did get a very similar necklace, just not from the PR person who worked for that jeweler.”
The necklace drama originally unfolded during Season 5 of RHOSLC, where castmates openly questioned the legitimacy of the jaw-dropping accessory. Things reached a boiling point during the reunion, with Lisa Barlow alleging insider knowledge that Bronwyn never owned the piece.
Fast-forward to Season 6, and tensions still linger. After Bronwyn dropped a bombshell about Lisa’s alleged legal troubles during an RV camping trip, Heather Gay wasn’t buying the timing. In her words, Bronwyn was simply:
“Caught red-handed lying about a $4 million necklace” that she “didn’t own.”
Bronwyn didn’t dodge accountability when asked about her motivations in a confessional. Instead, she came clean to producers:
“I knew I wasn’t gonna buy this necklace. But I made the girls believe that I had it by saying, ‘When I wear it, you’ll see it,’ thinking that I would get a different version, and they wouldn’t notice the difference. That is, in effect, lying, and that’s wrong.”
She even went deeper into self-reflection:
“How did that become more important to me than my integrity or the importance of Todd and I’s anniversary or being tough enough to not give a damn what everyone else thinks? Like, I really acted so immature in that moment, to be cool.”
In a franchise known for glam, drama, and over-the-top lifestyles, Bronwyn’s confession stands out as a refreshing moment of humility. Whether you’re Team Truth or Team Bling, one thing’s for sure: being real is always in style.
Former Vanderpump Rules alum Stassi Schroeder has publicly expressed her disappointment with Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, after feeling overlooked in a recent PR gesture. The 37-year-old reality star revealed that Meghan had sent promotional boxes to influencers Claudia and Jackie Oshry, hosts of The Toast podcast, but notably excluded Stassi.
On the latest episode of her podcast Stassi, co-hosted by Taylor Strecker, Schroeder opened up about her frustration. “I have literally defended her when no one else did,I have filmed videos about it, I’ve commented on all the things, I literally had my f**king PR reach out,” she explained, highlighting how she had stood by Meghan during difficult times.
Despite her previous support, Schroeder believes Meghan views her through the lens of her reality TV background, suggesting the Duchess is “stuck in 2017” and still sees her as a “lowly reality person.” This perception, she says, has been a source of ongoing frustration. “I am furious, and this is the last straw. I’m not watching her show anymore. I’m not going to talk about her anymore. I’m going to unfollow her right now! Done,” Stassi declared.
Her discontent also extends to Meghan’s choice of recipients for the PR boxes. Schroeder noted, “When you’re sending PR boxes to people who talk sht about you, Claudia and Jackie don’t talk sht about her, but they literally, they’ve questioned her, and they also say, ‘I wonder what Stassi’s thinking about this. I wonder what Stassi’s thinking about this because Stassi’s her number one fan.’ Everyone f*cking knows. No longer.”
Acknowledging her emotional investment, Schroeder described herself as a “toxic fan” and criticized Meghan for focusing on those who question her rather than those who support her. “That is so f**king batsht crazy to me. I think it’s her way of trying to control the narrative. I think she’s controlling. It’s like Blake Lively. It’s giving ‘control freak Blake Lively,’ and I’m out. I’m tapping out,” she shared candidly.
Adding a personal anecdote, Schroeder revealed that some people have even speculated she lent her daughter Hartford to Meghan, whose daughter Lilibet is around the same age and bears a resemblance. “She could’ve easily sent me a PR box, like making a joke about it,” Stassi reflected. “She could’ve done a million things, And I’m done.”
While Stassi’s feelings of hurt and frustration are evident, her willingness to voice her experience shows a commitment to authenticity, something many fans appreciate. Whether this signals the end of Stassi’s support for Meghan or simply a pause remains to be seen, but it undeniably marks a turning point in their complicated dynamic.
Teddi Mellencamp, known for her role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, recently shared a heartfelt update on her ongoing battle with stage 4 cancer.
In a candid Instagram post on Monday, September 22, the 44-year-old reality star expressed the emotional challenges she faces while also highlighting her gratitude.
“Mondays, am I right?” Mellencamp began, accompanying her message with a simple selfie that showed her bare face and short blonde hair, dressed comfortably in a cozy hoodie at home. She went on to reveal, “Emotions high. Love to everyone out there. If I haven’t responded to your text, I love you. I am just struggling.”
Although she didn’t go into specifics about her difficulties, Mellencamp encouraged her 1.2 million followers to share their own moments of positivity. “Mine is: I feel very grateful for the people in my life,” she wrote, adding a pink heart emoji.
Fans quickly responded with words of support, offering encouragement during this difficult time. Mellencamp’s cancer journey has been ongoing since her initial stage 2 melanoma diagnosis in 2022. Since then, she has undergone multiple surgeries, including the removal of four brain tumors and several melanoma spots.
Earlier this year, in April, Mellencamp confirmed that the cancer had metastasized to her brain and lungs, intensifying her fight. Despite the struggles, her message reveals a resilient spirit focused on gratitude and connection.
As Mellencamp continues to prioritize her health, her openness serves as an inspiring reminder of the strength it takes to face such a challenging diagnosis and the importance of community support.

Gia Giudice isn’t holding back when it comes to the future of her family, both on and off screen. The 24-year-old daughter of Real Housewives of New Jersey icon Teresa Giudice recently sat down with Entertainment Tonight, where she addressed swirling speculation about her mother’s Bravo future, the lingering tension with the Gorgas, and what she’s learned from watching her mom grow.
According to Gia, Teresa may be ready for something beyond RHONJ, and she’s more than earned it.
“My mom deserves it. She’s been on Bravo for a long time,” Gia said, responding to rumors of a possible spinoff. While she admitted she didn’t “know anything” for sure, she made it clear that a new chapter for Teresa wouldn’t be out of the question.
A Turning Point After Special Forces
Gia also shed light on a recent shift in Teresa’s mindset, especially when it comes to her strained relationship with her brother Joe Gorga and sister-in-law Melissa. She revealed that filming Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test had a powerful impact on her mother, encouraging her to let go of long-held grudges.
“Special Forces really was so much about self-growth, overcoming your fears, and really just letting go,” she said. “And there’s a lot of deep conversations that my mom and I have that I’m sure you guys will see on Special Forces.”
The emotional baggage of years of family tension seems to be wearing thin.
“As you get older, you get tired. She wants to let go of the hate. And she wants to let go of the anger. It’s not fun. It weighs heavy,” Gia explained. “And I think that’s all she’s saying. No one’s saying they need to be best friends.”
“Just Be an Adult and Move On”
Looking ahead, Gia is hopeful that the family can find peace, or at the very least, civility. Her message is simple, and it’s one many fans of RHONJ might agree with at this point:
“Just co-exist. Be in the same room. Just be cordial and be mature. Move on,” Gia urged. “No one wants to see this anymore. It’s honestly so petty. Just be an adult and move on.”
Whether Teresa continues on Bravo, takes on a new solo venture, or steps away altogether, it’s clear that her daughter sees growth and healing on the horizon, and is ready to leave the drama in the past.
If there’s one thing we’ve learned about Andy Cohen over the years, it’s that he doesn’t hold back, for better or worse. The Bravo mastermind and Watch What Happens Live host found himself back in the headlines recently after a clip resurfaced where he bluntly declared he “never” wanted to see Jen Shah again on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. But according to Andy? Everyone’s missing the context.
In a recent episode of his SiriusXM show, Andy Cohen Live, he set the record straight about the now-viral moment.
“That video leaked from my Q&A the other day, that Jen Shah video,” he explained. The clip, which was secretly recorded during one of his pre-show audience Q&As for Watch What Happens Live, showed him responding to a fan’s question about Jen’s possible return to RHOSLC. “Someone asked, ‘Will we be seeing Jen Shah on Salt Lake City?’” Andy recalled. “I don’t even know when it was from. It looked like it was a year old or something like that.”
What many people didn’t realize is that these pre-show Q&A moments are supposed to be off-the-record. “They’re not supposed to be videoing,” Andy pointed out. “And sometimes I just say way too much.”
In other words, he was speaking candidly, and perhaps too casually, in what he thought was a private setting. But when you’re Andy Cohen, there’s no such thing as “off the record.”
“I get really mouthy sometimes during those Q&As,” he admitted. “And you know what? There’s no putting the words back.”
The resurfaced clip spread quickly across social media, with fans speculating whether Bravo had truly cut ties with Jen Shah for good. Jen, currently serving time at Bryan Federal Prison Camp following her fraud conviction, didn’t remain silent either — or at least, her team didn’t.
In a statement posted to her Instagram account, her “management” confirmed that things between Jen and Bravo were still on decent terms. “A respectful conversation has already been had with Bravo behind the scenes, and there are no hard feelings,” they shared.
So, is this the final chapter in the saga of Jen Shah and RHOSLC? That remains unclear.
Marysol Patton isn’t mincing words when it comes to her Real Housewives of Miami co-star Adriana de Moura.
In a recent interview on SiriusXM’s Reality Checked with hosts Dorinda Medley and Kiki Monique, Marysol opened up about the growing tension between Adriana and the rest of the RHOM cast, claiming that many of the Housewives no longer want to film with her.
“She’s always miserable. She hates doing the show,” Marysol said during the conversation.
According to her, Adriana’s negativity isn’t just a mood—it’s become a pattern.
“She said it a million times when we were filming, ‘I don’t wanna be here. This is stupid. I don’t wanna do this anymore.’ She kept saying that, so I don’t know,” Marysol explained.
Dorinda echoed the sentiment, pointing out how hard it is to work with someone who’s unhappy while filming. “Because it’s a burden for the other cast member to constantly be measuring that,” she said. “You know, when you have that one person.”
So why does Adriana keep coming back if she’s so frustrated?
“You gotta pay the bills, my friend,” Marysol replied.
Dorinda added her own take: “It’s not like this thing drops on you in the middle of the night and you’re like, ‘Oh God.’ It’s not like a calling to the military. They send us contracts, we read the contracts, we kind of know what’s gonna happen, you know? And then we put our John Hancock, so put on a smile, slap on your shoes and let’s make a show.”
Marysol also revealed that she’s not the only one feeling this way—other cast members have privately expressed similar frustrations.
“I’ve heard complaints from some of the girls. They’re like, ‘I don’t wanna film with her. She’s always miserable. Like she doesn’t say anything.’ Everyone feels like they’re picking up the slack and then she’ll throw some bombs here or there, and then, you know, gets picked up again. That’s the sentiment with some, I don’t talk to everybody, you know what I mean?”
While it remains to be seen how this drama will unfold in the upcoming season, one thing is clear: there’s a major divide forming within the RHOM cast, and Adriana’s future on the show may be on shaky ground.
Once thick as thieves on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler have hit a rough patch, and Jackie isn’t holding anything back.
During a revealing moment at Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea Afterparty, Jackie confronted Jenn about what seems to be a deep emotional rift between the two, who also co-host the Two Jersey Js podcast. The former reality stars, whose on-screen bond charmed fans, haven’t released a podcast episode since May, and now we may know why.
“I’m telling you honestly, Jenn and I, the reason we have issues sometimes is cause I feel like I loved you so much, and you don’t love me back the same way,” Jackie told Jenn during the SiriusXM 109 event. The accusation didn’t stop there.
“I feel like when there’s someone more famous in the room, you gravitate towards them, and I’m not worth it to you, and that’s why we’ve grown apart,” she added, a statement that clearly caught Jenn off guard.
Jenn responded cautiously: “I mean, that’s going to be a very interesting sound bite and something that we should probably talk about.” But Jackie wasn’t backing down.
“That’s the truth of it. I don’t feel like you value my friendship the way that I valued yours. It is what it is.”
As the conversation unfolded, Jenn offered an apology, albeit a vague one: “I’m so sorry you feel that way. It’s definitely bad. It’s not good.”
Jackie went on to explain how deeply she felt the imbalance in their friendship. According to her, Jenn didn’t “invest in our friendship” like she did. That emotional withdrawal forced her to step back.
“And I had to remove myself in order to feel valued,” she said. “I loved you. But you like were always looking for who’s better in the room than me. And that’s okay. It’s just it is what it is.”
Despite the hurt, Jackie seemed clear-eyed about where things now stand, and the difference between Bravo friendships and real ones.
“I’m not in a bad place with anybody. It’s just that, I know what is real – and like the things that are real in my life are real, and the things that are just part of the Bravo bubble are not real. And they’re just fun and that’s it.”
While Jenn may not have had much to say in the moment, fans will surely be waiting to see whether this fractured friendship can be repaired, or if it’s another casualty of reality TV fame.
Tamra Judge, known for her role on The Real Housewives of Orange County, is once again making headlines for her latest cosmetic procedure, a breast augmentation, despite having previously removed implants and publicly vowed to never get them again.
On the September 18 episode of her podcast Two Ts in a Pod, co-hosted with Teddi Mellencamp, Judge detailed her July 14 surgery, which was performed to correct what she called an “animation deformity.” According to Judge, the condition was diagnosed by her plastic surgeon, Dr. Donny Mowlds.
As defined by the National Library of Medicine, animation deformity occurs when “contraction of the pectoralis muscle against the breast implant” causes the implant and breast tissue to shift unnaturally. Judge explained, “I couldn’t wear low-cut shirts because I had a line, a crease that went through both sides of my boobs. It started to look like I had two boobs on each side if that makes sense.”
She went on to describe the underlying issue as more than just cosmetic. “My pec muscle detached from my chest and moved towards my shoulder,” Judge said. Though she claims the condition wasn’t painful, her rigorous workout routine appeared to worsen the issue over time.
Despite a previous decision to remove her implants five years ago due to suspected breast implant illness — which she believed had contributed to “autoimmune issues” — Judge opted for surgery once again. “I vowed to never do implants again,” she said during the episode.
This latest procedure included sewing the pectoral muscle back to her chest and placing new 150cc high-profile “gummy bear” implants over the muscle. Although her surgeon initially considered going up to 250cc, Judge said that size was ultimately deemed “too big” for her frame.
Her earlier implant removal came after she began experiencing symptoms she attributed to breast implant illness. “I had autoimmune issues that went away when I had them removed,” she said at the time, although she admitted on the podcast that stress may also have played a role in her symptoms.
The decision to go public was, in part, unplanned. Judge said a Real Housewives producer called her out on the change, which led to her 19-year-old daughter, Sophia, learning about the surgery unexpectedly. “I had a low-cut dress on in my next confessional look, and I’m doing group confessional with Sophia, and we’re talking about plastic surgery,” Judge recounted. “I didn’t know what to say… I couldn’t go into these great details about what really was the issue.”
Though she described the five-hour operation as leaving her in “two months of pain,” Judge seemed satisfied with the result. “I’m glad I had it done. I think they look beautiful,” she said. “They’re full, I can wear low-cut shirts now, it makes me want to wear low-cut shirts.”
Dr. Mowlds has become a go-to name for the reality star, having also performed her brow lift, emergency stomach reconstruction, and various skin resurfacing treatments including a CO2 laser and chemical peels in 2024.
