Adrienne Maloof Reflects on Struggles and Paul's Colonoscopy

Gather.com:

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' season finale ended with a lavish wedding and a colonoscopy, but it was fairly less dramatic than what the women had gone through since the show's season premiere back in the fall. Adrienne Maloof, one of the housewives who stayed out of the drama for the most part, is opening up about the very dramatic season on her official Bravo blog. And despite the drama is about abuse, divorces and alcoholism, she is happy it has all been put on the table.


"There is a quote by Frederick Douglass that I love. He once said, 'If there is no struggle, there is no progress,' and I think that sums up this season. We faced our struggles, but everyone now has new things to look forward to, and for that I am grateful," Adrienne writes. Several housewives on the show has gone through some struggles, but leave it to Adrienne to put a fun spin on the show's season finale of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.


Her husband Paul had a colonoscopy on the episode, which surely created much discussion. "Leave it to Paul to make something serious absolutely dramatic and hysterical. Being a doctor, you'd think he'd be practical and clinical about getting the test done, but no — there he was, asking for someone to hold his hand (amongst other things he wanted me to do that we don't need to discuss again). I was happy to be there in the beginning of the appointment because I wanted to support his choice to get the test. I knew my husband was full of hot air, I just didn't know how much!" Adrienne shares on her blog.


Despite it being a humorous event for viewers, the colonoscopy does fall in with the theme of the show's messages this season. It is all about taking life as it comes. The colonoscopy is all about doing things for yourself to be healthy, just as Taylor leaving her husband behind for herself and helping her mental health. Falling under the same category are Camille moving on with her Greek boyfriend and Kim's admission to rehab.


In other words, it is all about doing something for yourself, despite the struggle it has been.
