$1 Million in Jewelry Stolen from Kyle Richards' Home While Family Vacations in Aspen
People.com:
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky’s new home in Encino, California, was burglarized Wednesday while the couple and their kids vacationed in Aspen, Colorado, PEOPLE confirms.RELATED: Kyle Richards Explains Why She's Moving Out of Beverly Hills: ‘I Just Fell in Love’
Over $1 million dollars in jewelry, including $150,000 worth of watches owned by Umansky, was stolen from the property, according to TMZ, which first reported the news.
The break-in was discovered by a housekeeper, TMZ reports. The property was reportedly broken into via a window, and the home security system was not armed, though a closet sensor triggered by the burglars clocked the incident around 1:15 a.m. local time. Surveillance camera footage is being investigated to help nab culprits.
The Los Angeles Police Department told PEOPLE they have no information at this time. A representative for Richards did not immediately return PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Richards, 48, and Umansky, 47, bought the property in October for $8.2 million, Realtor.com reported.
The former child star told PEOPLE at the RHOBH Season 8 premiere party on Dec. 15 that her family was still in the process of moving in and renovating the house.
“It’s taking forever,” she said. “There’s probably like 50 workmen in my house a day, so it doesn’t feel like a home yet. It’s a house still. So I’m waiting to make it my home.”

She says she was badly injured and was given 2 weeks off. She says the following month, she was fired.

De Lesseps, 52, and her male pal allegedly entered Room 407 at the Colony hotel in Palm Beach while a maid was finishing a turn-down service Saturday night.
A security guard who went to the room found the couple in bed there and told de Lesseps — who was registered to stay in Room 327 — and the man they had to leave, the report says.
Following “multiple attempts to get both subjects to leave over a five minute period,” the guard called for help, and two cops arrived around 9:20 p.m., finding de Lesseps and her longtime friend Julie Olson in the room.
Both women “appeared to be highly intoxicated,” and while Olson followed orders to leave, de Lesseps locked herself in the bathroom and refused to come out, the report says.
She finally opened the door when the guard began using a key on the lock, then allegedly shoved one of the cops — identified as “Officer O’Leary” — in the chest with her palm, then slammed the door on his face, “striking him in the forehead,” the report says.
After being handcuffed and put in the back of a police cruiser, de Lesseps allegedly slipped out of the shackles and tried to escape, screaming, “I’m going to f--king kill you” as the cops subdued her again.

TMZ.com:
Teresa Giudice and her kids got a sad lesson about the crappy kind of red tape this holiday season ... the kind that'll keep them away from Joe Giudice for Christmas.RELATED: RHONJ's Teresa Giudice Confronts Kim DePaola About Rumors That She Cheated on Husband Joe
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the snag came last month when Joe was transferred from a federal prison in Fort Dix, New Jersey to another facility in Allenwood, Pennsylvania. Teresa had to submit new visitor forms for her and the kids.
Problem is ... the process that goes into approving the paperwork moves at a snail's pace and won't be ready until after Christmas.
Plan B for Teresa, her dad and the kids is a trip to Mexico. If all goes as planned, they'll celebrate Christmas with Joe in the New Year.
Until then, homemade Christmas cards headed for Pennsylvania will do.

Tamra Judge On Getting A Facelift Before She Turned 50
Refinery29.com:
Tamra Judge is a cast member on Bravo's The Real Housewives of Orange County, which just finished its 12th season. After filming wrapped and ahead of her 50th birthday, she got a lower facelift — then shared the news on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and the Real Housewives reunion episode. Below, in her own words, Tamra tells us why she thinks it's important to be open about getting plastic surgery, especially when you're in the public eye.As told to Alix Tunell and edited for length and clarity.
In Hollywood and on TV, no one wants to talk about the work they've had done. It's like, come on, let's be realistic. You have younger people looking at you, wondering how you look good and what you're doing... Saying, 'Oh, nothing' is false advertising. I'm okay to let someone know I didn’t like the way something looked, so I fixed it. The truth doesn’t hurt me.
When I did my fitness competition last year, I really brought my body fat down. I'm a lot leaner than I used to be and that shows on your face as you start to get older. I started to see a huge difference at 48 — that’s when I felt like my face started to fall. And of course, being on TV definitely puts a little extra pressure on you.
So about five months ago before I turned 50, I went to [plastic surgeon] Dr. Milind Ambe's office to discuss my options. I had no intention of getting a facelift because I thought I was way too young, but one of the girls who worked for him mentioned she'd just done a lower facelift and we're the same age. She looked so good and refreshed, not pulled or anything, and I was like, 'I want that.'Dr. Ambe had actually done my mom's facelift a decade ago on the show and some other former cast members, so I knew his work was really good and natural-looking. He said I was doing it at the perfect age actually, because when you get it done in your 50s or 60s, it can be a very drastic change. It was super-scary, but I just put my trust in him.
Siggy Flicker Is Quitting 'Real Housewives of New Jersey'
TooFab.com:
After two seasons on the show, "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Siggy Flicker is peacing out.RELATED: 'RHONJ' Star Margaret Josephs Sounds Off on Beef With 'Theatrical and Hormonal' Siggy Flicker
The reality TV star announced the news on Friday morning, telling Bravo's Daily Dish blog, "After much reflection and Bravo’s support, I have decided that this will be my last season on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. I am grateful to the network for allowing me to be part of this successful franchise and wish only the best for Teresa, Melissa, Dolores, Danielle and Margaret."
"At this time, I want to focus on my beautiful family, my growing business and some exciting new projects," she added.
"Looking back at the show I truly wanted to make a difference for Jersey and in Jersey and I realized that I had too many obstacles working against me and I couldn't do it," she added in a statement to Us Weekly. "I feel like I lost the battle but I won the war because at the end of the day, everyone's goal should be … to be happy."
The matchmaker first joined the series in Season 7 and, in recent episodes, has gotten into a few explosive arguments with newcomer Margaret Josephs. Flicker -- the only Jewish New Jersey Housewife -- accused Josephs of being anti-Semitic after making a comment about Hitler during an argument. Josephs attempted to make amends on Wednesday's episode, but it took some time for Flicker to come back around. Eventually, she admitted, "I don't believe Margaret is anti-Semitic, I believe that Margaret is anti-Siggy."

Danielle Staub Has An Explosive The Real Housewives of New Jersey Dinner Moment
EOnline.com:
This is the moment fans have been waiting for, this is classic Danielle Staub. And this moment should've gotten her a tagline in the opening credits of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
The ladies of the Garden State made a big splash in Milan, Italy—literally, their drinks splashed against the floor, chairs, walls, themselves…
It all started when the ladies—Danielle, Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Siggy Flicker, Margaret Josephs and Dolores Catania—decided to address the "elephant in the room" about the Posche fashion show and what everyone said to each other at the charity event. Things devolved quickly after Siggy called Margaret anti-Semitic over Margaret's choice of an analogy with Adolf Hitler.
"This is sick," Margaret said, claiming Siggy tried to assassinate her character to avoid taking responsibility for hurting Teresa and Melissa's feelings. The shouting over each other continued until Siggy told Danielle that she doesn't matter. Then the glasses went flying.RELATED: RHONJ's Danielle Staub Chops 12 Inches Off Her Hair: 'I Can't Stop Looking at Myself!'
"That's f—ked up!" Danielle said at the table.
"How dare her treat me and dismiss me like I'm a piece of s—t," Danielle said in her confessional.
"I called Danielle a ‘prostitution whore' and I flipped a table on her and I've never seen her this mad," Teresa said in her confessional.
Siggy and Danielle eventually patched things up in their hotel the next morning. Or did they…

“Joe was recently, right around Thanksgiving, moved to a federal prison in Pennsylvania,” a source close to Teresa, 45, tells PEOPLE. “It takes about four to six weeks for visitors to be approved, so she will unfortunately not be able to see him before Christmas, but her hope is that immediately after she gets back from her trip, she will be able to see him once her visiting form is approved.
“They speak multiple times a day over the phone,” the source adds. “He’s emailing people all day long. Emails with each of the girls, separately. He is in good spirits and he’s happy and even happier where he is than where he was. This facility is better suited to him … he seems more upbeat since having moved.”

Kim Zolciak Sounds Off on Real Housewives of Atlanta's Fired Cast Member Scandal
EOnline.com:
Kim Zolciak-Biermann says she knows the tea, but she's not ready to spill it.RELATED: Kim Zolciak trying for baby No. 7
During Wednesday's appearance on E!'s Daily Pop, the reality star was asked to comment on her recent tweet that alluded to a certain Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member being let go from the Bravo series. "Poof! #LostYourPeach," Kim wrote online, fueling pre-existing rumors involving Kenya Moore's alleged refusal to film scenes with her new husband.
But this time around, Zolciak-Biermann kept her lips sealed: "I will get in so much trouble if I tell you. Nope. I cannot tell you! You'll have to wait and see next year."
She continued, "People think I just say it because I'm being a hater but I'm just telling you that it's true."
Dolores Catania on Her Real Issue with Danielle Staub
BravoTV.com:
Danielle Staub made her triumphant return to The Real Housewives of New Jersey this season, but not all of the Garden State gals were ready to give her a warm welcome. Tension brewed almost immediately between Danielle and Dolores Catania, especially when Danielle told Teresa Giudice that Dolores had not been saying such kind things about her behind her back, which Dolores denied.RELATED: Teresa Giudice and Dolores Catania Face Off Over *That* Rumor and It Gets Intense: 5 Clips You Need to See
So what is it really about Danielle that makes it so hard for Dolores to get along with her? The RHONJ mom broke it down when she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Wednesday night (clip above). "OK, well, I embraced Danielle when I first met her, although I heard many terrible things about things she's done to people," Dolores explained to Andy Cohen. "She started something between me and Teresa that wasn't true. She told Teresa I was talking about her very early into this whole relationship, and I wasn't. And also, she antagonizes me and she mocks me about my relationship with Frank Catania."
Taking all of that into consideration, you might think that Dolores wouldn't be too fond of Danielle's rekindled friendship with Teresa this season. Although Dolores said that she doesn't "think anything's really genuine about" Danielle, she wasn't completely against her striking up a relationship with Teresa again, either. "And as far as Teresa and Danielle, I mean, right now, it's a new relationship; it's kind of superficial. It's just new," Dolores shared during Wednesday's WWHL After Show (clip below). "We'll see what happens. You never know. I could be wrong. I hope I'm wrong. I hope they run off into the sunset and stay friends, but who knows what could happen."

Leakes responded: “You shouldn’t either b*tch. You f**ked Kandi over. She had your back b*tch. You f**ked her over. She had your mother**king back b*tch. You sit on that show and lie every day with your lying a**. The door is closed.”
Williams was in tears over the fight, as Sheree Whitfield tried to comfort her. “I feel bad for her. She has no one else and it is my trip,” Whtifield said. “So, I wanted everybody to feel comfortable.”
Cried Williams: “We at dinner, the whole table leaves with the woman that is coming at me. I’m nobody’s victim but this breaks me down. Who the f**k is perfect at this table?”
Back in her room, Leakes tried to justify what she said on Watch What Happens Live that offended Williams so much. “A caller called in and they asked me for my opinion who would I get rid of and I said freak and fraud. Those are the two that I would get rid of right away. She’s making it out like I made a scene going all out saying fire Porsha.”
Williams told Whitfield that she wasn’t going to apologize to Leakes. “She’s done sh*t to everyone at the table. I’m not kissing her a**. I’m not.”
Erika Girardi On Whether or Not 'Pantygate' is Really Over
BravoTV.com:
Last season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills can basically be summed up in one scandal: Pantygate. Remember when some of the ladies got together for a white party and Erika Girardi admitted that she wasn't wearing underwear? And then Dorit Kemsley's husband Paul "PK" Kemsley later told his wife that he had accidentally been flashed? And then Dorit gifted Erika some lingerie as a joke, which the RHOBH songstress did not find funny. No, not one bit.RELATED: Erika Girardi Has Some Incredible (and Incredibly Sassy) Advice for Any and All New Housewives
Well. All that turned into a bit of a thing last season.
Though Erika and Dorit seemed to squash their beef at last season's reunion, we all know that Real Housewives drama often has a way of getting stirred up again. So, has the 90210 squad really moved on from Pantygate? It's a yes, according to Erika, when she recently stopped by PEOPLE Now. "I mean, for me, it has been, for sure," she added.
If you've seen the trailer for the upcoming season of RHOBH, you know that Erika and Dorit even look like — dare we say it — friends. “I think you’re going to see a shift in a lot of relationships this season — not only Dorit and myself, but some others as well," Erika teased. "And we've been able to move on, which is nice."

The incident will play out in detail this season, but in the meantime, Brielle, 20, is adding fuel to the fire by shading not just Leakes, but also her fellow Housewives Kenya Moore, 46, and Cynthia Bailey, 50. (Zolciak-Biermann has also been fighting with Moore this season, lunging at her in a recent episode after the former Miss USA claimed Zolciak-Biermann was “pimping” out Brielle.)
On Sunday, Brielle commented on an Instagram photo of the three RHOA stars shared by The Shade Room account asking followers to “#NameThatGirlGroup.”
“Xstinct,” she wrote, a play on RHOA star Kandi Burruss‘ musical group, Xscape.
After her comment drew attention, she followed up by telling fans to “relax” because it’s all “fun and games.”
“I wish the golden girls happiness,” she added.

The business deal went south in late 2016 after Robinson claimed Gorga “misappropriated” over $37,000 from the company. The partnership ultimately ended, and Robinson soon after went to the store to collect her belongings.
When “Real Housewives” aired, the business was a plot line, and Gorga made it appear that Robinson actually “snuck into Envy in the middle of the night and stole clothing.”
Robinson says in reality, she showed up during the daylight and the items she took out of the store were her own property.
The theft claims were then repeated during an airing of Andy Cohen’s “Watch What Happens Live.” Cohen even said, “Wow, so, that lady wound up kinda ripping you off?” Gorga replied, “Yes.”

Luann de Lesseps Shares Dating Life Update After Divorce
ETOnline.com:
Luann de Lesseps is embracing the single life after her divorce from Tom D’Agostino.RELATED: Luann de Lesseps' Holiday Plans Totally Involve Another New Year's Eve Wedding
The Real Housewives of New York City star and her husband of less than a year finalized their divorce in October. Since then, Luann has kept a fairly low profile -- but she did step out for Daily Mail’s “Unwrap the Holidays” party in New York on Wednesday night, where she shared an update on her love life with ET.
“I'm not really dating,” she admits. “I'm taking time for myself. I'm enjoying my children and my girlfriends … I’m getting my life back. I'm getting, you know, I'm looking for an apartment in the city. So, I'm just trying to get back on my feet. So, I don't have time for boys right now, but that doesn't mean I'm dead.”
Luann was joined on the red carpet by her pal and co-star, Dorinda Medley, who adds that Luann’s eyes “aren’t closed” when it comes to finding her next mate. In fact, Dorinda called Luann out for checking out a guy on their way into the party!
“I saw a quick head turn as we we coming up the stairs,” Dorinda spills. “[She’s] still alive, gang! Still alive.”
Also at the party was the ladies’ castmate, Ramona Singer, who tells ET she’s offered nothing but support to Luann in the wake of her split.
“I never said, 'I told you so,’” she shares. “As soon as I heard the news, I reached out to her and I said, ‘I’m so sorry, my heart is breaking,’ because I know she really believed in that white picket fence, and the knight and shining armor, and I know she actually loved him, and it was sad. We all wanted it to work. When she took that plunge, and made that move, we were all hoping it would work.”

Margaret Josephs On How Joining The Real Housewives Changes Your Life
EOnline.com:
Margaret Josephs almost stepped into the spotlight on The Real Housewives of New Jersey a whole lot earlier in the Bravo hit's run than its current eighth season.RELATED: Margaret Josephs And Siggy Flicker Fight Is Heating Up Again: Accusations Of Mental Instability
A fan of the show since its inception, in part, because it was highlighting women from her neck of the woods, the franchise's newest addition told E! News that she was contacted by producers about joining the fray way back when Caroline Manzo was spinning off onto her own series after season five. "[They] actually approached me in 2013, we were discussing it last night at dinner, and I couldn't do it that year," she revealed. "It just wasn't great timing." Considering that was the year she divorced first husband Jan Josephs for current hubby Joe Benigno, the hesitation is understandable. After all, allowing Bravo's cameras to capture your life, warts and all, for the world to see is one heck of a commitment.
But 2017 felt like the perfect time for the pigtail enthusiast to convince her family to let her document her life on national television, she told us. "Well, A. I've led many lives by the age of 50, and, at 50, I thought it was a great turning point. I've already had a business for a long time, all my kids are up and out of the house, and I thought this would just be a great opportunity to do something different," she explained. "The truth is, my whole life has been a reality series since birth, legit. You've seen Marge Sr. I thought it was just the next step in my career. I thought it would be fun. I thought it was great to show people that women could be entrepreneurial. I didn't come from the Lucky Sperm Club. I pulled myself up by the boot straps, I've taken a lot of hits, so I thought I was also very relatable. And Jersey could definitely use a blonde, so I thought it was a good idea."
With her mind made up, it was time to get her family on board, something she wasn't able to do with everyone in her life. "Because I'm so out there, and they call me TMI Marge, my whole family knows everything's out there. My husband Joe is very funny. Everybody just acts like themselves, the girls in my office, Marge Sr. They were super excited. Of course, my children, who are not on the show, were not excited," she said. (Margaret has one son, as well as three step-children whom she helped raise, from her first marriage.)

Lisa Vanderpump's Dog Outfit Lawsuit Dismissed
TMZ.com:
Lisa Vanderpump's lawyers didn't screw the pooch on the lawsuit she was facing over doggy clothing -- it's been dropped for good.RELATED: Vanderpump Rules Is Back, and the Plot Lines Are Thicker Than Ever
The suit -- filed by dog boutique Fifi & Romeo against Lisa -- has been dismissed with prejudice, meaning they can't refile it. Looks like Lisa might have thrown them a bone, as in a few bucks, because F&R asked the court to toss the case.
We broke the story ... the boutique sued Lisa for allegedly failing to promote their company after they agreed to dress Giggy for events and photo shoots.
We've reached out to both Lisa and F&R to see if they did in fact reach a settlement. No word back from either side.

Kyle Richards Opens Up About Her Struggle with Fibromyalgia
BravoTV.com:
After seven seasons on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, you would think we would know just about everything about Kyle Richards at this point. However, we're still getting some major revelations about Kyle's life even today.RELATED: This Beverly Hills 'Wife Is "Shook" About the New Season
One thing we just learned about Kyle is that she has been struggling with fibromyalgia for years. Kyle has briefly talked about her condition in her Bravotv.com blogs, but she opened up about her chronic pain in depth on the latest episode of The Healer, which follows Charlie Goldsmith, who uses energy to help heal others.
Kyle told Charlie that she first started getting this pain as her mother, Kathleen Richards, battled breast cancer. "My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer, but as my mom was sick and taking care of her I started feeling really sick myself. I went to a lot of different doctors and they would say, 'Oh, you're just depressed because your mom died.' And I was like, 'I'm just not buying that it's only I'm depressed. Why am I having all these crazy symptoms?'" Kyle recalled on The Healer. "Then I was talking with someone and she said, 'You have fibromyalgia. Everything you just said is fibromyalgia.' So I went to this doctor who specializes in it, and he asked me a lot of questions. All of a sudden I felt like I had an answer and I felt better because it caused so much anxiety."
When Charlie started to use energy to help heal Kyle in the episode, she said that she felt a "warm, tingling sensation going through the area that bothers me most," which is her neck and shoulders.
Kyle shared how much it would mean to her to finally be rid of this chronic pain. "That would be amazing to think, you know, that I could just be free of these symptoms and my husband [Mauricio Umansky] would never have to hear about it again," Kyle said.
