Lysa Simpson, sister of RHONJ star Melissa Gorga, shaded Teresa Giudice’s daughters in a birthday post for Antonia Gorga on Instagram.

We are only a week into filming for season 14 of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, and people already stirring the pot to cause drama between Melissa and Joe Gorga and Teresa Giudice.

On Saturday, RHONJ star Melissa Gorga celebrated her daughter, Antonia Gorga‘s 18th birthday. The RHONJ cameras were present as Melissa, Joe, their kids, and the Marco clan celebrated Antonia’s birthday at Elia Mediterranean Restaurant in Rutherford, NJ.

The main focus of the day was supposed to be Antonia; however, one of Melissa’s sisters couldn’t help but cause drama and take the attention away from the birthday girl.

On Instagram, Melissa’s sister, Lysa Simpson, shared a birthday tribute to Antonia. Initally, Lysa’s post seemed super sweet, but as you continued reading, you were quickly slapped in the face by Lysa taking a dig at Teresa Giudice’s four daughters – Gia, Gabriella, Milania, and Audriana.

Lysa wrote:

“My Godchild, how are you 18? I love you so much. I’m so proud of how you have weathered the storm of growing up on national TV. YOU HAVE SHOWN US NOTHING BUT GRACE. You have never said a negative thing about any of these crazy situations that you have been thrown into. I’m always here for you, and I LOVE YOU BEYOND ?@antoniagorgaa.”

Of course, Lysa’s comment about Teresa’s daughters quickly went viral all over social media, with RHONJ fans having quite a bit to say.

Before we get into what RHONJ fans had to say about the shade from Melissa’s sister, we have to report that Milania Giudice did wish Antonia a “Happy Birthday” on Instagram.

“Happy birthday, beautiful ??,” Milania commented on Antonia’s Instagram post celebrating her 18th birthday.

Meanwhile, RHONJ fans went to Lysa’s Instagram page to call her out. She quickly disabled comments on her post and began blocking anyone who called out via DM. Lysa even told one RHONJ fan to “STFU” after they called her out.

So, what are RHONJ fans saying about Lysa’s dig at the Giudice girls?

“Is nothing sacred? Just wish your niece a happy birthday without the extra bullsh*t, attention-seeking commentary,” one fan commented.

“They literally can not get Tre & her family off their minds … it’s sad … make Antonia feel special instead of being passive-aggressive towards others,” a second RHONJ fan commented.

“Ugh, this family can’t ever drop it. They’re so low budget. Celebrate your niece’s bday and move on. It’s pathetic!” a third fan commented.

A fourth fan agreed: “Weird. A time to spotlight her, her accomplishments & wonderful attributes outside of the show & she. Says. This. Oooph.”

“It’s Antonio’s birthday. Why can’t they leave the petty BS alone for ONE day??” a fifth fan quipped, while another fan commented, “So Lysa is also one of those aunts….. guess we know where Melissa gets it from.”

Another fan shared: “Why not just wish your niece a happy birthday and tell her about her amazing qualities and how much you love her …..no, make it about drama so ppl can comment this aunt is a clout chaser lol #noclass.”

RHONJ will return to Bravo for season 14 in 2024.

Sutton Stracke Shades Erika Jayne’s Claims Menopause Caused Her Weight Loss

written by Lara Sophia

Sutton Stracke is calling BS on RHOBH co-star Erika Jayne’s recent claims that she lost weight due to menopause, not Ozempic.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Sutton Stracke isn’t buying what her co-star Erika Jayne is selling when it comes to her recent weight loss transformation.

Earlier this month, Erika appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, where she credited her weight loss to menopause, not Ozempic.

On Watch What Happens Live, Andy Cohen complimented Erika, saying she looked great. He proceeded to ask about her weight loss.

Erika acknowledged that she had dropped some weight over the past year, explaining that she did it “hormonally,” not “Ozempic-ally.”

“Here’s what. Let me just start off by saying, you know, I want to make sure that I don’t trigger anybody because we have this conversation in Beverly Hills, and we have a cast member with an eating disorder,” she explained, referencing her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-star Crystal Minkoff, who has been open about her life long battle with an eating disorder.

She continued, “But, yes, I did come down in weight, and I did it hormonally.”

Erika also shut down the insinuation that she used the weight loss drug Ozempic. Instead, Erika claimed she lost the weight while going through menopause, noting, “I went to the doctor, and I said get it off, me.”

Now, Erika’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-star Sutton Stracke is calling out her BS claim she lost weight due to menopause.

“I’ve been through the menopause, but I still don’t look like that. But OK,” Sutton told Us Weekly while rolling her eyes.

However, Sutton did praise Erika’s body transformation.

“Good lord,” Sutton gushed. “I need to do whatever she’s doing.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is reportedly returning to Bravo for season 13 in late 2023. Some reports suggest season 13 will premiere on November 1.

Lea Black Slams Bethenny Frankel for Going After Bravo/NBC Universal

RHOM alum Lea Black slams Bethenny Frankel for going after Bravo/NBC Universal, saying that “Bethenny likes to be the hero.”

Not everyone in the Bravoverse is chomping at the bit to join Bethenny Frankel‘s reality TV revolution. Two very popular and successful Real Housewives have recently spoken out about Real Housewives of New York alum Bethenny Frankel going after Bravo/NBC Universal.

Earlier this month, Bethenny Frankel, along with powerhouse lawyers Mark Geragos and Bryan Friedman, sent a legal letter to Bravo/NBC Universal alleging “grotesque and depraved mistreatment,” including “plying cast members with alcohol while depriving them of food and sleep,” “denying mental health treatment to cast members” and “covering up acts of sexual violence.”

Now, Real Housewives of Miami alum Lea Black and Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss are speaking out about Bethenny Frankel’s campaign against Bravo.

Lea, who appeared in seasons 1-3 of the Real Housewives of Miami, is shocked that Bethenny Frankel is going after her former employer.

“Bethenny likes to be the hero,” Lea told Page Six. “But she should be grateful. She made a ton of money and became very influential because of her association with Bravo. I can’t even wrap my head around anyone being so ungrateful for the opportunity that they want to sue the person that gave it to them.”

Meanwhile, Kandi Burruss, who has continuously starred on the Real Housewives of Atlanta for the last 14 years and has starred on multiple Bravo spinoff shows, told Entertainment Tonight she has no plans to join Bethenny Frankel’s cause.

Kandi said: “It wouldn’t make any sense for me to be a part of that. To me, if I’m working with somebody, and I feel like they’re not doing something that they should be doing, I address it right then.”

For the last several weeks, Bethenny Frankel has urged reality stars to unionize and join the SAG-AFTRA strike.

“Hollywood is on strike. Entertainers are fighting for residuals, and no one will promote anything. Why isn’t reality TV on strike?” Bethenny declared on Instagram in late July.

“I myself have generated millions and millions of dollars in advertising and online impressions being on reality TV and have never made a single residual,” she explained. “So, either I’m missing something, or we’re getting screwed too.”

She then noted that while reality TV stars are often considered the “losers” of Hollywood, they were the ones who “provided all of the entertainment” to TV viewers during the yearlong Writers Guild of America strike in 2007.

“It’s complete and total bulls–t,” she added. “It just occurred to me that everyone is talking about actors, and we don’t get paid s–t.”

PHOTOS: Melissa and Joe Gorga Show Off Their New Backyard

Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Melissa and Joe Gorga are showing off the beautiful backyard oasis at their new Franklin Lakes home.

This week, Melissa Gorga shared photos on social media showing off the gorgeous backyard at her freshly renovated home in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey.

Alongside several photos, Melissa gushed about contractors “giving my family exactly what we wanted.”

In the photos, Melissa showed off her stunning pool flanked with black lounge chairs and matching umbrellas, along with two giant daybeds. The pool also features a waterfall and two fire and water bowls.

Melissa and Joe Gorga‘s new backyard also has beautiful white pavers with mini stones in between. The yard also includes a fire pit with plenty of seating and multiple covered porches for dining and entertaining.

Check out the photo below!

This reveal comes after Melissa and Joe Gorga spent the last several months renovating their new Franklin Lakes home after receiving criticism from the Bravoverse over their design choices.

For nearly a year, Bravo fans trolled Melissa and Joe Gorga‘s poorly designed home due to its multiple pointed roofs and lack of symmetry – and that was just their thoughts on the outside of the home. The inside is a whole different ballgame.

The RHONJ couple moved into their Franklin Lakes home last November; however, less than two months later, they were renovating the exterior of their home.

Melissa and Joe took out a very large loan to make the necessary upgrades to their home. In April 2021, the Gorgas got a mortgage for $1.435M. With that money purchased the property on Indian Trail Dr and knocked down the previous home to build their current McMansion. Then, in January 2023, the couple refinanced and took out an additional $565k on their house.

Since then, Melissa and Joe Gorga have hired professionals to create a more pleasing balance to their home by adding an extension that includes a front porch and additional windows.

In June, Melissa gushed about her newly redone home in her post on Facebook:

“Finally finished. I’m so happy I found Dan & @planarchitecture so that when we could FINALLY resubmit our plans after all the COVID chaos, my true vision for this house could come to life…@joeygorga I know you wanted to kill me, but I’m so grateful for you to make this happen so soon after moving in.”

Bethenny Frankel Shuts Down Carole Radziwill’s Claim About Who Took the Infamous ‘it’s about Tom’ Cheating Photo

Bethenny Frankel is shutting down Carole Radziwill’s claim that Michael Cohen took the infamous photos of Tom D’Agostino cheating.

The Real Housewives of New York OG slams Carole Radziwill’s “stupid’ claim that Donald Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, was the one who snapped the infamous photo of Tom D’Agostino kissing another woman at The Regency.

“Only because I love you and because many of you have asked me in the comments will I comment on something so insignificant and so stupid, and it is that no, Michael Cohen did not take the photo at The Regency of Tom,” Bethenny Frankel said in a now-deleted TikTok, according to Page Six.

Bethenny Frankel claimed that a woman took the photo and that she is “texting me right now on this very phone.”

“[She] just sent me our original text and the photo, and it was the photo, and underneath it, it said, ‘Maybe you should make different New Year’s Eve plans’ – which I don’t even know what that means,” the Skinnygirl mogul continued.

“It’s dangerous to listen to just anybody spew their mouth off about something they know nothing about,” the 52-year-old concluded.

Earlier this week, Carole Radziwill appeared on Heather McDonald’s Juicy Scoop podcast, where she claimed that Michael Cohen told her that he was the one who took the infamous photo of Tom D’Agostino.

According to Carole, she was out to dinner with friends six months ago when Cohen popped up and insisted he was the one who took that infamous photo of Tom at The Regency.

“We started talking about Tom or the wedding, and he’s like, ‘Oh please, of course, I know Tom, Who do you think took the picture?’” Carole explained.

“So he [Cohen] was talking about Dennis, and then he started talking about Tom, and he said, ‘I took the picture,’ and I was like, ‘The picture that was on [‘RHONY’]?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, I took it,’” she continued.“Michael Cohen had taken the photo that ended up being forwarded to Bethenny and ended up being on the show.”

Carole notes that Cohen was good friends with Bethenny’s late fiancé, Dennis Shields, who passed away in 2018. Cohen sent the picture to Dennis. He then shared it with Bethenny, who was on vacation with the RHONY cast in Miami.

Back in 2016, Real Housewives of New York star Luann de Lesseps had just gotten engaged to Tom D’Agostino after a whirlwind romance. However, Luann’s joy was cut short when Bethenny Frankel told her that she had photos of Tom kissing another woman at The Regency.

The identity of who was behind sending the photo remained one of the biggest mysteries in Real Housewives of New York history. And it seems it will remain that way unless Bethenny Frankel decides to spill the tea.

Season 14 of RHONY airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

RHOBH star Kyle Richards fires back at Jeff Lewis' recent comments about her relationship with Morgan Wade

Kyle Richards Reacts to Jeff Lewiss’ WWHL Shade; Claims She’s Over the Gossip About Her Life

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Kyle Richards sounds off after former Flipping Out star Jeff Lewis throws some major shade at her on Watch What Happens Live.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills OG is sick and tired of the gossip and rumors surrounding her body and her love life.

Just one day after former Bravo star Jeff Lewis made a very shady joke about his good friend Kyle Richards on WWHL, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star addressed Jeff’s comments during an Amazon Live session.

During a game called “Jeff, What’s your issue?” the Flipping Out alum called out Kyle Richards over the rumors that she is on Ozempic and is having a romantic relationship with a woman.

“Kyle and I are friends, and I’m pissed,” Jeff quipped. “She didn’t tell me she’s a lesbian on Ozempic.”

Heather McDonald, who was also a guest on WWHL, added: “Did you guys know that one of the side effects of Ozempic is lesbianism? Your ring falls off. Then your ring slips into someone else.”

As Bravo fans know, for months, Kyle Richards has shut down rumors that she lost weight due to taking the weight loss medication Ozempic.

More recently, she’s had to shut down gossip that she’s dating country singer Morgan Wade amid her marital woes with her husband, Mauricio Umanksy.

After WWHL, Jeff insisted his comments about Kyle were all in good fun. However, it doesn’t seem that Kyle Richards appreciated being the butt of Jeff’s joke.

“When I brought up Kyle Richards, she’s a friend of mine, I was totally joking. I was poking fun at the absurdity of all the rumors going around that she’s a lesbian, that she’s on Ozempic. I simply meant it as a joke,” Jeff told TMZ on Wednesday in NYC, before adding, “I texted her this morning at 6:30 a.m. [and] I am yet to hear back.”

Now, Kyle is telling Bravo fans that she is sick of watching her private life discussed and mocked on social media and in the tabloids.

The 54-year-old says she isn’t “not talking to Jeff” but admits that she doesn’t “feel like responding” to him right now. She then vents about how she can’t handle seeing her private life “splattered all over the place.”

Kyle said:

“Am I still talking to Jeff Lewis? I’m, I’m not, not talking to Jeff Lewis. I just don’t feel like responding to Jeff Lewis right now, to be honest. I’m just getting sick of people. Um, I’m just tired of it. I’m, I’m, I’m at my wit’s end with, you know, the stories about me out there, and I just want everyone to be quiet. I try not to even look, but it’s in your face if you’re on Instagram just scrolling, looking at something else that’s just there and no matter what.”


“You know, it’s hard enough with people saying things about me, you just expect your friends not to. Then I have to look at that all day, and, you know, I kind of felt like yesterday with friends like that who needs enemies. And I know this will be splattered all over the place, but the truth is, you know, Jeff, his mouth does get him into trouble. He knows that that’s, but I just, just wasn’t in the mood, to be honest. Not in the mood to respond. Like, I don’t feel like being the butt of the joke right now.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is reportedly returning to Bravo for season 13 in late 2023. Some reports suggest season 13 will premiere on November 1.

Kyle Richards ‘Trolls the Trolls’ By Playing Morgan Wade’s Love Interest in Music Video

Kyle Richards plays the love interest in Morgan Wade’s new music video to poke fun at the rumors that they are dating.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is giving the Bravoverse something to talk about as she stars in her good friend Morgan Wade’s steamy new music video.

On Thursday, Morgan Wade released the music video for her new song “Fall in Love With You,” and the video has the entire Bravoverse in a tizzy.

While the music video was an effort to poke fun at the rumors Kyle Richards and Morgan Wade are dating, it seems to have done the exact opposite. Instead, the music video has only further fueled speculation that the two are more than friends.

In the video, Kyle and Morgan take a romantic bubble bath together. The two also nearly lock lips when Kyle is washing her car, and Morgan walks over and grabs her neck in a seductive manner.

Then, in the kitchen, Kyle wears lingerie and a black blazer while she and Morgan feed each other strawberries, whipped cream, and slices of watermelon.

At the end of the video, Morgan wakes up and realizes the entire sequence was a dream.

Kyle Richards and Morgan Wade promoted the music video on social media and opened up about making the video to  “poke fun” at the social media “trolls.”

“I’ve done several music videos, and every time there’s someone in it with me, they always assume we’re dating, or something’s going on,” the 28-year-old country singer explained. “You see people being obsessed with us being friends and why we’re friends, but we thought it would be a good idea kind of to … troll the trolls a little bit.”

Kyle added that she and Morgan decided that if people are “gonna talk, you might as well give them something to talk about.”

“Internet’s going to be popping off about this, I’m sure,” Morgan quipped.

On top of the video, the lyrics to Morgan’s song have sent Braov fans into a tizzy.

“Can’t you see I’m what you need? / Make you hit your knees, pull out that ring. / Gonna make you fall in love with me,” the lyrics to Morgan’s song read.

So, what are bravo fans saying about Morgan’s music video starring Kyle? Not surprisingly, they have quite a bit to say.

“I’m so over Kyle and this storyline. We need to stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not gonna happen,” one fan commented.

A second wrote, “Seriously??? And Kyle’s upset about the gossip??? SHE is the one feeding the rumor mill. Goodbye, Kyle!!!”

“Kyle has more chemistry with her Birkin,” a third fan quipped.

“Queerbaiting is never a good look!” a fourth fan commented.

Another fan said: “She’s desperate for attention and having a midlife crisis.”

Meanwhile, Mauricio Umansky commented on Kyle’s Instagram post about Morgan’s music video.

Mauricio wrote, “so good,” along with several fire emojis.

Caroline Manzo reveals that her step-niece Danielle Cabral unfollowed her on social media after being cast on RHONJ. Get all the details!

Real Housewives of New Jersey OG Caroline Manzo is opening up about her step-niece and newest Jersey Housewife, Danielle Cabral.

Caroline appeared on the Thursday, August 10 episode of Jeff Lewis Live, where she opened up about her relationship with Danielle.

To start, Jeff Lewis asked Caroline: “So, besides Dolores [Catania], who else are you friends with on that cast?”

“Well, Danielle Cabral is kind of like a half-ass relation,” Caroline replied.

 The RHONJ alum elaborated, “Andy [Cohen] had a conversation with me about her when they were considering her, and she is my brother’s daughter. Okay? My niece. My brother and his wife divorced many years ago, and his wife remarried.” 

“The gentleman she remarried had two kids, one of those being Danielle Cabral,” Caroline added. 

Caroline Manzo declines offer to return for Season 13 of RHONJ, revealing her decision to step away from the reality show.

While Caroline has known Danielle for 20 years, she admits they aren’t exactly close. Instead, Caroline says that she and Danielle are friendly and cordial when they see each other at family events.

Caroline explained, “It’s like, ‘Hey, hey, nice to see you. Merry Christmas. Oh, Happy Easter.’ You know, one of those things. I only see her at family events and stuff.”

Jeff then asked, “But does she know that you facilitated her being on the show?” to which Caroline replied, “I don’t think she realized that until Andy said it. Yeah.”

According to Caroline, Danielle NEVER thanked her for helping get her cast on RHONJ. However, Danielle did reach out to Caroline’s daughter, Lauren Manzo, before joining RHONJ.

“Well, she did originally when they were considering her. She called both myself and my daughter Lauren and, you know, ’What do you expect?’ and I was brutally honest with her. So was Lauren, and then, you know, I guess she got the gig, whatever, and then strangely, she unfollowed all of us, including my niece and everything, and never thanked anybody. Nothing,” the 61-year-old explained.

“I’m glad she’s doing what she always wanted to do, and she always wanted to, you know, be in the public eye and stuff like that, so I’m glad she finally has the opportunity to do that and, you know, carry on,” Caroline continued.

Previously, Caroline revealed that she hadn’t talked to Danielle since the 37-year-old joined RHONJ last year.

“Interestingly enough, she was cast, and then I think they introduced her to Teresa. She hit it off with Teresa. That’s the last time I heard from her,” Caroline said on a podcast back in May.

According to Caroline, Teresa and Danielle are cut from the same cloth, with Caroline noting that Danielle has “got a lot of Teresa in her.”

Speaking of Teresa Giudice and Danielle Cabral, they both will be returning for season 14 of RHONJ along with the rest of the RHONJ cast.

Shannon Beador dresses up as Gina Kirschenheiter for doppelgänger party on RHOC

Gina Kirschenheiter Blasts Shannon Beador For Mocking Her Style and Bad Hair on RHOC

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

RHOC stars Shannon Beador and Gina Kirschenheiter’s social media beef continues to heat up – this time over a shady doppelgänger costume.

Tamra Judge and Jennifer Pedranti were just looking to have a little fun when they hosted a doppelgänger party, yet it seems that not all of the ladies could handle being poked fun at.

On this week’s episode of the Real Housewives of Orange County, the ladies all dressed up as each other for Tamra and Jenn’s party, but Gina Kirschenheiter couldn’t take Shannon Beador‘s interpretation of her and made that known on social media.

As the RHOC cast promoted Wednesday’s episode on social media, Shannon shared photos of her dressed up as Gina.

In the photos, Shannon copied Gina’s bad hair extensions and hairstyles, as well as her horrible fashion choices that all have been featured on RHOC over the years. Shannon also poked fun at Gina’s recent claims that she was “imitating” her after they both wore the same leather skirt on WWHL.

“Hope you enjoy my IMMATATION of Gina on tonight’s #RHOC… ? Tune in at 8 pm/7c on @BravoTV!” Shannon wrote alongside several photos of her look and which photos of Gina she drew inspiration from.

Despite fans loving Shannon’s costume, Gina wasn’t laughing.

The 39-year-old clapped back at Shannon’s costume in a lengthy post on Instagram.

“This is me. This is me at a time that was dark. That was scary. The pain in my life at that time was real, and the way I looked was a reflection of that time.

To anyone out there that is struggling to keep themselves and their children afloat and can’t seem to find time for a blowout….don’t feel bad about that! You are doing the best you can!

Remember, there is light at the end of the darkness! You will get there….and when you do, remember there will always be people that try and bring you back there to remind you of your worst times, your darkest days….keep it in perspective. Usually, it’s people who are in more pain than you are. Try to empathize, but don’t allow yourself to become someone else’s doormat.

Reclaim these moments. Don’t let anyone take them from you.

I am a fucking warrior. I went through the worst of the worst. I shared my heartache and pain and navigated through all of it with no light and no map and came out on top.

I look back at these photos, and I’m proud of myself. I’m proud of how far I have come. I am proud that I have found happiness, that my children are thriving, and that my family is fully intact. Thank you so much to everyone who supports me and champions my successes instead of reminding me of my painful past and missteps.

I am so thankful to be where I am today and wish nothing but the same for those still struggling!!! Love you all!!!”

Fellow RHOC star Emily Simpson commented on Gina’s post, writing, “You are the strongest person I know! And navigating through the darkness while still keeping your kids healthy, safe, and knowing they were loved is truly exceptional and exemplary.”

Meanwhile, Gina went on to say that she doesn’t appreciate Shannon mocking a hard time in her life.

“I’ve definitely gone through hard times in my life…so great that you’re always there to remind me of them! That’s just the kind of person you are…@shannonbeador,” Gina wrote on her Instagram Story.

However, Shannon was baffled by Gina’s claims that “bad extensions, bad hair, and bad wardrobe were hard times.”

Former Flipping Out star Jeff Lewis is backtracking after throwing some major shade at Kyle Richards on Watch What Happens Live.

On Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, former Bravo star Jeff Lewis made some very shady comments about his good friend and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards.

During a game called “Jeff, What’s your issue?” the Flipping Out alum called out Kyle Richards over the rumors that she is on Ozempic and is having a romantic relationship with a woman.

“Kyle and I are friends, and I’m pissed,” Jeff quipped. “She didn’t tell me she’s a lesbian on Ozempic.”

Heather McDonald, who was also a guest on WWHL, added: “Did you guys know that one of the side effects of Ozempic is lesbianism? Your ring falls off. Then your ring slips into someone else.”

As Bravo fans know, for months, Kyle Richards has shut down rumors that she lost weight due to taking the weight loss medication Ozempic.

More recently, she’s had to shut down gossip that she’s dating country singer Morgan Wade amid her marital woes with her husband, Mauricio Umanksy.

Many Bravo fans weren’t sure if Jeff was poking fun at the gossip or if he was being shady AF.

Turns out, Jeff was joking, and his comments were all in good fun. However, it doesn’t seem that Kyle Richards appreciated being the butt of Jeff’s joke.

“When I brought up Kyle Richards, she’s a friend of mine, I was totally joking. I was poking fun at the absurdity of all the rumors going around that she’s a lesbian, that she’s on Ozempic. I simply meant it as a joke,” Jeff told TMZ on Wednesday in NYC.

He then noted that he did text Kyle but had yet to hear back from her at that point in time.

“I texted her this morning at 6:30 a.m. [and] I am yet to hear back,” Jeff revealed, adding that he “hopes” Kyle isn’t angry with him over the comments.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is reportedly returning to Bravo for season 13 in late 2023. Some reports suggest season 13 will premiere on November 1.

Thoughts on Jeff’s comments? Was Jeff being shady? Do you think Kyle is upset with Jeff?
