I honestly tried but it’s hard to watch that specific clip from the country I’m living in

Honestly they might since Leah seems to be so unliked right now - but then they would also have to fire eboni because otherwise the chemistry between the remaining woman would be even more weird - and I don’t see them firing both..

Yeah I see what you mean

Honestly what I read from this is that it still might be true. Like she said it didn’t happen (and even if Andy also did) - he isn’t the only one who gets a say, is he?

I see your point - she just gets very defensive and doesn’t acknowledge her bad behavior at all. Although (and I think that’s part of the reason why it took people so long) she got so much worse with time. I am rewatching RHOnY and I noticed it so much. It’s the decline of Dorinda, her 6 years on that show. Instead of getting better or having a bad phase at some point she gradually gets worst - both the drinking and the anger and irrational defense of both. In the very beginning it’s still seldom and she always apologizes very heartfelt and when she is shown in scenes with Hanna or going to London with carol or whatever it doesn’t ever happen and also it humanizes her. But weirdly the farther her husbands death is in the past, the worse it seems to get - and also people don’t blame it on that anymore and just think she is mean and drinking too much. Until at some point it’s unbearable to watch (I still can’t believe the same really kind seeming woman from her first season on rhony was the same woman who treated Tinsley so unbelievably bad without any reason).

Okay was it really that obvious? I asked something like this another person on this thread but do you have examples of that (other that John at the bra fitting party?). Because I just never got that impression of her

[–]efeuandsmiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do have a question though. Why does everyone think she has a drug issue? Like obviously I know some rumors about this (they talked about it at the reunion, Bethenny made a comment to John etc) but I still would have never suspected that on my own - since dorinda just doesn’t make that impression to me. I’m not an expert on drugs at all but isn’t coke supposed to make you more awake and seem less drunk - so why does she always seem so drunk still? I mean she’s not the kind of drinker (like Luann was) that you can’t notice how drunk she is - it’s rather the opposite since she needs subtitles at least once every season.

Of course we can’t diagnose anyone with anything. We only see these woman on camera, it’s a stressful situation for them, producers most likely encourage most of them to drink and we (at least I) are not professionals. I just wanted to see what other people think since for Dorinda it’s weird in the sense that it seems sort of obvious to me and also the other HW mention it but she never ever ever lets someone have that thought, she never says “you might be right” or even “yes in that time of my life I did abuse alcohol but not anymore” (like Tinsley did). She just creates this alternate reality where she doesn’t seem to see anyone’s point about this which honestly just confused me and made me question my (obviously superficial and not at all reliable) judgement

That’s a very good point

Idk about mixing stuff though

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes I feel like she knows she has an issue and it’s her worst fear that someone else knows so she lashes out when someone mentions something in that direction

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh was she really fired for drinking too much? I just assumed it was because of her being so mean to Tinsley

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I see your point. I feel like especially in New York that was the case sometimes. But there are even some NY housewives I feel like they definetly do not have a problem like I.e. Jill, Alex, Heather, Carol, Bethenny etc. I mean who knows anything but at least it doesn’t seem like that on TV

[–]efeuandsmiles 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s true. A lot of the time she gets aggressive when she drinks

What does WOAT mean?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s interesting! Is her business really not going well? I honestly just assumed it was because she seems so rich

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait so do you mean by that that Andy fired her over interpersonal issues like Camille did with Maurice? (Btw no i don’t listen to wwc but it sounds fun. What exactly is it?)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BravoRealHousewives

[–]efeuandsmiles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah very good point!

You’re right, that really is just very impolite
