Gamble Breaux Talks New Season of "Real Housewives of Melbourne' and Co-Stars Not Attending $20K Pet Wedding

With all the drama that goes down on The Real Housewives of Melbourne, it would be easy to assume that the stars of the reality TV series are co-workers and not friends.

But Gamble Breaux insists the relationships are genuine, telling the Daily Mail Australia: 'We actually have real rapport and real relationships and real love for each other...there's a real respect for each and every Housewife for the other Housewives.'

Despite the 43-year-old's proclamation of love and respect between the ladies, her RHOM co-stars were noticeably absent from a lavish $20,000 pet wedding that she threw in Sydney on Saturday.

All the other Housewives were invited but they didn’t attend. Gina Liano is a good friend of the Billichs but I know she's been busy', Gamble explained to DMA.
Perhaps speaking to those Housewives who did not attend, Gamble added: 'It's a big event, you know? It's being treated as a real wedding.'

The blonde bombshell also said that when the Housewives aren't filming, they usually take a break from each other to spend more time with their families. 
Judging by her fellow Housewives' social media accounts, Jackie Gillies spent Saturday out clubbing, while Chyka Keebaugh attended a birthday party with her husband and two children.

As for Lydia Schiavello, she had a human wedding in Melbourne's Rockbank to attend.

Gamble also opened up about the new season of The Real Housewives, calling it 'insane.' 
She revealed that despite claims of the series being fake, everything is actually real.

'You forget the cameras are there so what you see is what we feel,' she told DMA.

'They don’t direct you, they don’t tell you what to do.'

Arrest Brooks! Vicki Gunvalson’s Family Wants Ayers Prosecuted For Cancer Lie


RadarOnline.com:
Brooks Ayers‘ cancer lie got him sent packing from the OC, but now ex-girlfriend Vicki Gunvalson‘s family wants him sent to jail! An insider tells RadarOnline.com that the RHOC star’s inner circle want him prosecuted for forging his medical documents.

As Radar reported, Ayers admitted to fabricating medical records that he produced on the show. He claimed to have been treated at City of Hope cancer center, but the facility reportedly denied he was ever a patient, and he came clean with the cover-up.

Now, “Vicki’s family wants the City of Hope to have Brooks prosecuted,” an insider told Radar.

California law states, “any person who alters or modifies the medical record of any person, with fraudulent intent, or who, with fraudulent intent, creates any false medical record, is guilty of a misdemeanor.” The maximum penalty is one year in county jail.

“What he did was horrible and Vicki would absolutely cooperate with law enforcement,” an insider told Radar. “Cops and the district attorney’s office would have a very clear path to conviction. Brooks is shown on camera with the faked documents, and later admitted he forged them.”

When he was caught red-handed, Ayers told E! News, “Words cannot express the deep regret that I have in fabricating documents to ‘prove’ to the world that I, in fact, have cancer. What I did was wrong and inexcusable. I acted alone, without Vicki’s knowledge, to produce documents for a reality TV show in hopes of putting doubts about my cancer to rest.”

The City of Hope and local police did not respond to Radar’s requests for comment. Ayers said he had no comment.

Brandi Glanville Reveals Why She Returned to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: 'Money'


People.com:
A certain wine-throwing housewife is back in the mix for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills's sixth season, and Brandi Glanville has a good reason for her return.

Glanville took to the RHOBH season six premiere party on Thursday in Hollywood and credited one thing for her triumphant return to the reality show.

"Money," she told PEOPLE.

The 43-year-old mentioned that she only filmed with Yolanda Foster and Kim Richards for the season. 


Glanville opted for a detailed, long-sleeve mini-dress at the event and was seen posing for a group photo with the rest of the cast.

Eileen Davidson, who has had drama with Glanville, said she hasn't seen Glanville on or off set, but insisted that she isn't "somebody who holds a grudge."  


"I don't have anything against her," Davidson told PEOPLE of Glanville. "I learned a lot last year in the process. It wasn't always pleasant, but whatever, I made it through."

Glanville left the show earlier this year. She has maintained that she wasn't fired, but said she decided to leave after taking a beating online for last season's antics.

"I felt like I played ball, I gave my all to the show, and then when it aired I thought, 'Oh my God, they did me no favors in the editing room,' " she told Howard Stern in July. "And I got really upset and a little depressed."

Porsha Williams & Cynthia Bailey ‘Friendly’ Post Boat Beatdown


RadarOnline.com:
On the last episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Porsha Williams and Cynthia Bailey‘s fight turned physical following a disagreement during Kenya Moore‘s luxury boat party.

As RadarOnline.com reported in September, when the incident originally occurred, Williams was rushed to the emergency room with cuts and bruises from Bailey’s high-heeled kicks.

Three months later, have the fiery cast members moved on?

“Porsha and Cynthia are friendly now,” a show insider tells Radar, adding that though Williams has forgiven, she hasn’t forgotten. “They’re by no means best friends, and never will be. But they can get along.”

And despite the injuries and anguish resulting from the epic beatdown, Williams, 34, is back to her old self.

“She’s fine, mentally and physically,” the insider insists.

The blowout battle broke out after Williams called Bailey a “b****” during the festivities.

Though Williams claimed it was all in jest, the 47-year-old model, who’s currently in the midst of serious marital problems with husband Peter Thomas, didn’t take the name-calling lightly.

Sonja Morgan Wants To Be The Next Bethenny Frankel


Inquisitr.com:
It is no secret that some of the cast members that appear on the Real Housewives franchise are just as successful in their personal lives as they are in reality TV. This includes Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Vanderpump, who has been very successful in the restaurant business, and Real Housewives of New York’s Bethenny Frankel, who is well known for her Skinnygirl alcohol products. With that in mind, it appears as though Sonja Morgan is attempting to follow in her RHONY co-star’s footsteps.

According to Christian Today, Morgan is partnering up with Peter Guimaraes and have announced plans to launch a new liquor line, Tipsy Girl. Morgan first came out with her business plan during her 52nd birthday celebration, where guests were given the opportunity to test Morgan’s new wine.

While the focus of the new wine should have been on its taste, many of the guests immediately noticed how similar Morgan’s brand name is to Frankel’s Skinnygirl product. “Skinny Girl, Tipsy Girl?” one source stated. “Sounds pretty similar! Is Bethenny going to take that?”
Although Frankel has not said anything on the matter, Guimaraes recently revealed that the brand has been taking heat over its choice of wording and not its similarities to Skinnygirl. In particular, many are criticizing the name for its attempts to glamorize alcoholism.

“We got some flack that the name’s ‘promoting drunkenness,’ ” he shared. “It’s not—it’s tipsy! You can be tipsy in love … tipsy in life.”

In addition to the prosecco, the new brand will also feature its own take on tequila, wine, and vodka, and will be released in several different locations, including Miami, Chicago, and Las Vegas.

Meanwhile, aside from filming Season 8 of Real Housewives of New York, Frankel may have good reasons why she hasn’t responded to Morgan’s latest venture into the business world. In fact, according to the Hollywood Reporter, Frankel is busy launching a number of new series on FYI network.

It has already been announced that Frankel would be working on a new series with Leftfield Entertainment, titled Food Porn. However, Frankel’s deal with Leftfield Entertainment has now expanded, and the reality star is set to produce two more series, titled Cocktail Porn and Closet Porn.

Phaedra Parks Reveals Why She Didn’t Make Cynthia Bailey’s “Bachelorette” Party


Wetpaint.com:
Phaedra Parks managed to keep herself out of harm’s way when she turned down the invitation to Cynthia Bailey’s “bachelorette” party, but it wasn’t a feud with her castmates that kept her from boarding the boat.

In a new interview with BravoTV.com, Phaedra reveals the real reason she didn’t make it to the event was simple: she was spending time with her sons.

“I had every intention of joining the ladies for the boat trip. Unfortunately, both of my sons came down with ear infections and viral tonsillitis the evening before. They were miserable and really needed to be comforted by me. Being a mom is my first priority, and no boat trip could ever keep me from soothing my ailing sons,” says Phaedra.

“The real reality is motherhood often includes many sleepless nights, very long days, and sometimes you have to drop what you're doing and put on your mommy cape for you children.”

Heather Dubrow Says Yolanda Hadid Is Not To Blame For Fosters’ Divorce


RadarOnline.com:
Yolanda Foster‘s four-year marriage to husband David Foster collapsed on Tuesday when the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star announced that that they are divorcing. But as the 51-year-old beauty picks up the pieces, longtime friend and Real Housewives of Orange County star Heather Dubrow told RadarOnline.com exclusively that she believes Yolanda is not to blame.

“We knew Yolanda and David long before any of this housewives stuff went down,” Heather said, referring to herself and her plastic surgeon husband, Botched star Terry Dubrow, 57.

“Whatever it is, I do not blame her,” she continued. “Yolanda is a very good mother and I am sure she is doing what is best to lessen the impact on her family.”

“Listen. She has a young son at home and that is her priority right now,” the 46-year-old mother of four told Radar at West Hollywood’s 6th Annual Christmas Tree lighting ceremony to commemorate World AIDS Day. Yolanda is mom to Anwar, 16, Bella, 19, and Gigi Hadid, 20, her kids with ex Mohamed Hadid.

As Radar previously reported, financial troubles, as well as claims of David’s wandering eye and the collapse of his record label have led to the end of the marriage.

But according to Dubrow, “Whatever Yolanda’s thought process was, I know that must have weighed heavily into it and I respect that.”

“I just feel that when you are on Real Housewives – whatever show you are on – we are all like sorority sisters in different chapters,” the RHOC star said of her RHOBH counterpart. “I feel for Yolanda and have much affinity for her.”

Cynthia Bailey Weighs In On Her Confrontation with Porsha Williams: 'I May Have Overreacted'


Bravo.com:
Bravotv.com: Why did you decide to open up to Kandi about your marriage?
Cynthia Bailey: I enjoy talking to Kandi because she is level headed, rational, and doesn't sensationalize things. I knew that Peter and I had just celebrated our five year anniversary, but did not think about the "five year hump" that marriages go through until Kandi brought it up. My conversation with her reminded me that no marriage is perfect, most have issues, and we were not alone in our struggles.


Bravotv.com: How do you know Tammy?
CB: Tammy and I have a mutual close friend in New York City, who thought we should meet. I love meeting new people, so I decided to invite her to Lake Lanier. I thought this would be a great opportunity for us to hang out and introduce her to my friends. That was our first time hanging out, and we are still getting to know each other.


Bravotv.com: Why were you offended when Porsha called you the B word on the boat?
CB: In my opinion, the word "bitch" can be used in fun as a term of endearment or disrespectfully as an insult. It depends on the tone and context in which it is used and interpreted. How did Porsha and I go from having fun and kicking it to a heated confrontation, when all I was attempting to do was try to prevent Kenya from kicking her friend Shamea off the boat? Was it wise to get caught in the line of fire to try to diffuse a bomb that was never intended for me? Looking back, probably not. Maybe I should have kept my big mouth shut, sat back with the other ladies, and watched the fireworks. Porsha and I were having a great time together until we had a breakdown in communication, which turned into a major misunderstanding. That combined with several cocktails and disrespect of personal space took the conversation somewhere it was never meant to go. When I walked away from everyone in pursuit of peace to speak with Kenya on behalf of Shamea, the last thing that I expected to hear from Porsha was "whatever bitch." I felt like my friendship with Kenya and my good intentions were being mocked when she called me a bitch in that moment. I perceived it to be disrespectful, whether that was her actual intent or not. Looking back, I think I may have misjudged Porsha's intentions and overreacted. The only thing that I was focused on was going to speak with Kenya to allow Shamea to remain on the boat.


Anyway, once the conversation escalated, I realized it was best for me to walk away to cool off. I assumed when Porsha joined me on my recliner, she had also done the same. In an attempt to revisit our earlier conversation, I tried to clarify to her why I was offended in the first place. My words were not received, and the conversation escalated once again. When Porsha made it clear that she did not feel the need to apologize to me or thank me for trying to help out in the situation, I became confused about her purpose. At that point, I repeatedly asked her to go back to the other side of the boat, because I did not want to continue to argue and insult each other. Our hands and fingers were all over the place, and the next thing I knew Porsha was straddling over me. As I was lying down looking up at her, I had a flashback of the physical altercation that she had with Kenya at the reunion. I began to feel threatened, and the situation became uncomfortable. I had to figure out how to protect myself, and my personal space.

Yolanda Foster and David Foster Divorcing After Four Years of Marriage


EOnline.com:
This may be one of the most shocking splits in reality TV history.

E! News has learned that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Foster and her husband David Foster are divorcing after four years of marriage. The former model and the songwriter-record producer have been together for nine years, and weren't shy about flaunting their admiration and love together on the Bravo show.

"Sadly we have decided to go our separate ways. We've shared nine beautiful and joyous years together and during that time we experienced love, friendship, and the inevitable challenges that come with managing a marriage, careers, blended families and health issues," the couple tell E! News in a joint statement.

"We are grateful for the years we've spent together and believe wholeheartedly that we did our best. I hope that we can pave the road ahead of us with all we've learned and with the love and respect we will always have for one another."

The details surrounding what caused the couple to split have not been revealed, and just like fans, a source tells E! News Foster's RHOBH co-stars are in shock. "Yolanda always seemed absolutely in love with him and was always talking about how proud she is of him."

Additionally, filming for the Bravo reality show has already wrapped, so their split will not be played out on the small screen.

Kim Fields Reportedly Being A Diva To Her 'RHOA' Costars


TMZ.com:
Kim Fields isn't making her new 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' gig a priority, according to co-workers who find her impossible to work with ... due to an inflated ego. 

Sources on set tell us some of Kim's co-stars are livid she's been showing up late and leaving early for shoots. In one case, we're told she left Kandi Burruss' baby shower early -- during taping -- so she could help her kids do math homework.  

Also, when they were filming in Jamaica, Kim showed up with her kids even though producers told the cast absolutely NO KIDS.

We're told Kim acts like she's better than everyone else, and still in her '80s heyday of 'Facts of Life.' Sources close to Kim say that's way off base, and she's a "consummate pro" who works with producers to ensure she meets her responsibilities to work and family. They also point out she shows up for every shoot on time and in good spirits. 

But with other cast members feeling like Kim disrespects 'RHOA' rules and schedules ... we'd say there's a juicy chick fight brewing.

Lisa Vanderpump On 'Vanderpump Rules' Vs. 'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills'


Bustle.com:
I wasn't sure what to expect when I first heard that there was going to be a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills spinoff series. I know what I'm getting when a new Real Housewives series springs up in a different city, but this was different. I got a little taste of what was to come when Lisa Vanderpump had a party on RHOBH and one of the waitresses working the event, Scheana Marie, was not only an employee from one of Lisa's restaurants but had had an affair with Brandi Glanville's ex-husband Eddie Cibrian. But was Vanderpump Rules just going to be the same drama from RHOBH? That's what I wondered and I was so very wrong.

Sure, the RHOBH cast made some appearances in the beginning to draw in the loyal Real Housewives fans, but Vanderpump Rules is a totally different show. Lisa may be the common thread between the shows, but even she is not the same character on both shows. Interacting with a group of rich, catty peers is much different than being the boss to a bunch of aspiring entertainers at a restaurant. There are a few differences between Lisa Vanderpump on Vanderpump Rules versus Lisa Vanderpump on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

1. She Settles Arguments Instead Of Being In Arguments

On Vanderpump Rules, Lisa is the one who mediates the conflict between the cast members. On RHOBH, she is involved with the drama and is an occasional instigator. The one thing that remains true is that she always has some sassy one-liners no matter what show she's on.

2. She Can Do No Wrong Instead Of Offending Her Castmates

Lisa is the be-all and end-all among her restaurant staff. She is the queen bee and her word goes. On Real Housewives, Lisa is still outspoken and says everything she wants, but she doesn't always get away with it and it sometimes comes off as offensive to the other Housewives.

3. She's In The Background Instead Of The Foreground

Lisa is not at the center of the drama on Pump Rules. She chimes in from time to time and gives her two cents, but none of the story lines really revolve around her. On RHOBH, Lisa is an open book and her life dominates the show's story lines.
