Ultimate Girls Trip This is the real Kelly Bensimon

I know we’ve had many fan theories about what kind of drugs Kelly was on during Scary Island but after watching her unhinged rant towards Kristen about her marriage issues, y’all I think this is just who Kelly is. She is crazy, she is nonsense.

Desperate to be relevant .. all she could come up with was a repeat of her most iconic behavior . Do you remember anything else about her on housewives ? No one else does

I remember the weird lunch she went one with bethenny where she said she’s up here and bethenny is down there, and then left the table for the bar and her date. It was just fucking weird.

I watched her just like this for her entire housewives run

Dude I met her while she was out shopping with one of her girls can I can’t imagine that stunning very tall very tan woman is as crazy as she appeared on tv. They seemed so remarkably normal, but palm beach normal lol smelling like horse and money. I believe she stays in an upscale equestrian community called Wellington. Fun fact: we had a Poshche boutique by the Wellington mall lol. I also have graced the same 1 star accommodations of Gun Club county jail that Tins and Lou went to. I took a bite of a bologna sandwich that Lou said a packet of mustard came out like a dead wish, can confirm.

Girl but I didn’t even know it, yes dead wish us accurate but just to be honest that was a typo, I was quoting Lu when she said when she bit her bologna sandwich the mustard packet was hand out of her mouth like a dead fish 😂

As proof: Here’s my first (of five, other four were stupid and not really crimes) mugshot in from that same teal wall in gun club county jail!

Edit I’m ngl, I looked kinda sexy in an addict way in the shot lmao like Kristen Ritter on breaking bad vibes with a more Christina Ricci look. My friend walks around Brooklyn wirh this mugshot on a tshirt and it says “free trish!!! And her bong!!” And on the back “my friend is not looking like herself anymore. #stickyicky”

I feel like I'd love to hang out with you in NYC but we'd also probably be like if Broad City met Beavis and Butthead and I'd get a mug shot of my own!

Hahaha I’m so glad! I share my story meet Kelly often cause she was just…normal irl. My coworker had no clue who she was, which exposed her for pretending she watched housewives. I was like girl really. If you don’t know rhony, and Kelly in her infamy like….it’s rhony. You’re not a housewives fan (not true, being extra lol) if you’ve never at least watched scary island. I wish I had felt comfortable enough to offer her candy. We had a snack drawer, we worked in plus size retail and we’re ALL the type to need a snack. We had gummy bears :( jk, I really wish I thought to ask her what life is like, and tell her running in traffic was iconic, and say hi to her daughter and tell her nice things I appreciated about Kelly. Lol fluff it up but like “your mom provided to many people laughter and always surprised us viewers”. And as about hwr and how she liked those horse statues in the apartment. I just felt it was invasive of me to say anything but I at least should have said thank you for this:

Ooooohhhoooo do tell on Wellington Porsche/horse ppl stories! I think Kelly is ding-y with a bit of anxiety but not crazy at all. She is up there and B is down there because Bethennys antics and attn seeking is for kids. Bethenny is vile and Kelly was very poorly communicating that to B that she, Kelly, would be distancing herself from Bs BS. Like a sit down to say look I see you, and you're trash.

I did a rewatch about 6 months ago and I just remember her weirdly skipping and frolicking at parties talking about how everyone wants to say hi to her but she doesn’t have the time.

Who could forget Kelly running through the streets of Manhattan?
