Episode Description:

Heather begs Kim’s Kardashian to change her style, we cover Before the 90 Days and the latest twitter drama with RHOC. Then Heather gets the scoop on what it is like to grow up with Howie Mandel as a dad when she drills his son Alex. She also helps find him a possible wife or at a least a date to bring to one of her shows.

The Scoop:

I start out this episode talking about the biggest news happening in reality TV right now. Bethenny Frankel, from Real Housewives of New York’s on again off again boyfriend Dennis Shields was found dead in his apartment. His maid tried to save him, he asked for narcan, which is a drug people can take to counter the effects of an opioid overdose.

So in telling this story and how I think things played out, one thing people were speculating on, is what are the other cast mates of the Real Housewives supposed to do. Do you reach out if you’re not getting along with someone? Do you show up at the funeral?

I don’t believe any of the cast mates showed up at the funeral, but I do know that they reached out personally, but not through social media. I think in this day and age, especially with someone who is famous, you have to be very careful because everything can be criticized. Everything can be perceived as you trying to make it about yourself and you trying to get attention because you spoke to the press.
If you do say something, people are mad that you are trying to use their lose for your gain and if you don’t say anything people are mad that you didn’t acknowledge their pain and lose. You just don’t know what you’re supposed to do anymore and with someone like Bethenny I think it’s hard to not get on her bad side.
I do feel really bad for her situation and her lose, but I think the cast mates handled it correctly and we will see what happens on the reunion.
