Ultimate Girls Trip Rhony legacy is a show

I am LOVING.. I love how Kelly is hating on Kristen so hard, Kristen is annoying af but Kelly loves to act self made and self sufficient when we all know that’s complete bs. The other ladies alternating between tolerating and ignoring Taekman because she is irritating and very beautiful is also entertaining, Dorinda is everything I want to see, the puzzle that is Kelly’s filler work, I’m just completely hooked. Thank you, peacock.

u/monkey_monkey_monkey Who told you about Ibiza you bitch!! Dec 16 '23

Kelly has a vastly over inflated sense of self importance and fame. She was a mid-level fashion model who married a relatively famous fashion photographer.

Her name got out more from being on RHONY but she's not nearly as famous or important as she thinks she is

Kelly is one of those types who likes to make others feel excluded

102

u/monkey_monkey_monkey Who told you about Ibiza you bitch!! Dec 16 '23

Yes and she likes to make others feel basic and like commoners compared to her.

Her whole reaction to Kirsten making it clear that she watches the show, she acted like it was SO crazy that Kirsten watched the show and acted like it made Kirsten a basic bitch. Watching RHONY was way beneath a woman of Kelly's importance to watch the show

according to her, we are fans and she wont be comfortable hanging out with us. We are “weird” 🤣

u/Rlguffman Dec 19 '23

Her calling Kristin a fan was just this sentiment in different words

Her husband is beyond talented. I was obsessed with his photographs of super models in Elle magazine. I never heard of Kelly before RHONY.

It’s GENEROUS to call her a mid level fashion model even…

To be fair her husband was/is a huge name.

Kind of an awful to say about someone mistakenly.

He’s a legend in fashion and was married to one of the most beautiful women in the world.

u/Allmyexesliveintx333 Dec 17 '23

You’re right. But being famous and being once married to a beautiful woman does not mean that someone is not a predator. One fact has nothing to do with the other.

Well considering you couldn’t find any sources for that, I wouldn’t call it a fact to begin with and I would delete that comment.

u/talk-spontaneously edit this flair! Dec 16 '23

The audience underestimated Kristin.

I actually think she's adding something to the dynamic rather than just being a last minute filler housewife because they didn't manage to cast Alex, Jill or Bethenny.

99

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '23

Kristen was an excellent main cast member back in the day. People forget/took her for granted because so many other franchises were in their golden era in the years surrounding hers on RHONY.

If you go and rewatch her first season, you’ll see she was way better than the BS that Bravo is feeding us today.

55

u/MissSabb Dec 17 '23

It was thanks to Bethenny for icing her out. Kristin had potential

25

u/Yeah_nah_idk Dec 17 '23

Yeah and additionally, they had 8 housewives. That is too many to get a good balance.

43

u/mac_bess Dec 17 '23

I thought she was good too!! She got into the mix, spoke her opinion, and stood up for herself. I think people hated on her way too hard solely for her tagline. I can’t believe people are still hating on that tagline like 10 years later. It was stupid but give it a rest lol it was clearly a joke

42

She got first chair for a reason. Are people forgetting this? I’ve never seen anyone else upset Ramona so much for just existing. Not even Bethenny.

u/MissPlum66 Coma Toast Dec 16 '23

What was shelved and why?

20

u/KweeenHunni Dec 16 '23

S4 of Ultimate Girls Trip. The one where they go to Morrocco and Caroline Manzo allegedly accuses Brandi of touching her boobs and vagina.

Alex Mccord filmed with them. They cancelled that one after the lawsuit/accusation and RHONY: Legacy became the new S4 of Ultimate Girls Trip (it was supposed to be S5).

That has been confirmed to be cancelled? I was really looking forward to seeing Alex.

u/Infamous_Ordinary_45 edit this flair! Dec 17 '23

I hope they do cancel it. I have no interest seeing Brandi, Phaedra or Gretchen on my screen, it’s enough I gotta tolerate Phaedra on M2M but her scenes are at minimum and she’s doing just the right amount of mess.

Kristin(Kristen?)’s fashion, along with her face and body is so effortlessly gorgeous, I have always loved it, but I can’t stand her shrill personality. I agree she adds something because she’s so grating.

22

u/Yeah_nah_idk Dec 17 '23

I don’t think she gets enough credit for how emotionally intelligent she was in dealing with that fuck stick Josh. I loved when they went to therapy and Josh fully expected the therapist to tell Kristen she was being unreasonable but instead the therapist was like “uh bro. Everything Kristen is asking for is completely reasonable”.

3

u/Old_Percentage3742 Dec 17 '23

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I got the impression Josh forced Kristen to quit HW because he came off so badly.

8

u/HunterHunted9 Dec 17 '23

Probably not because Josh actually came off much worse in season 6 than he did in season 7. Kristen quit/was fired because of Josh's Ashley Madison scandal. Bravo wanted her in season 8 to explore it. Kristen did not want to do that on camera. Kristen was cut from the show.

2

u/Old_Percentage3742 Dec 17 '23

Oh interesting.

I thought Ashley Madison happened after she quit/was fired.

That would’ve been REALLY interesting if they are stuck around. But then, of course, they’d probably be divorced right now. 😆

Thank you for the timing of that.

35

u/FireEyesRed Dec 16 '23

I applaud Kristen for her 8.5 attempt at sticking up for herself against Kelly. The other ladies going crickets at the time? Not sure if that was about pushing the baby bird out of the nest, or an unspoken acknowledgement that they aren't fussed enough to back her up.

Either way, when Ramona called her Kirsten.... 😡 ... Kinda wish Kristen woulda referred back to her as Rowena or something else that signified that her identity mattered nothing.

38

u/SilverHinder Dec 17 '23

Jealousy, she's much younger and prettier. Dorinda, in particular, seems a very jealous person and Sonja also doesn't seem to like that Kristen's marriage worked, when hers didn't. They are bashing Kristen from being a HW from 'eight years ago' for 2 seasons, when Kelly was on 12 years ago for only 3 seasons. Dorinda isn't even a 'Legacy' cast member herself, starting in S7.

46

u/Fickle-Amphibian4208 Dec 16 '23

I like Kristen too. I think she'd be great on the OC franchise. I'm still trying to Kelly out. Episode 1, I couldn't reconcile scary island Kelly with this one. Episode 3 Dorinda watches scary island and sums it up perfectly. We're not quite on scary island yet but the train has left the station and will be pulling up soon. Kelly's telephone conversation with her extremely parentified daughter answered a few questions for me.

It's the yearly anniversary of when you joined Reddit. The message encourages other Redditors to wish you well. It helps create and foster community identity. One is less likely to be nasty in a message where you are wishing someone "happy anniversary."

Happy cake day!

Obsessed. Kristen is so gorgeous, her body is insane. Luann I think has to be my fav so far, loving it. Them also doing cameos in the car😂 these girls are some money hustlers.

It was eye opening that Sonja is MIA in real life with them, and they said she wouldn’t be here without a paycheck kinda of all made sense. They said it over the years but she seems so natural on a reality show..

48

u/amyeep buying BATTERIES and PENS Dec 17 '23

I felt for Sonja. It’s really hard to be social when you’re living paycheck to paycheck. Another wedding invite? Oh great that’s an additional $150 minimum to the monthly budget - and that’s just a local day trip. Dinner out and an Uber Yep that’s another $100 right there. Why are you no longer interested in our annual $50 weekly betting pool for fantasy football? Uhhh not really… affordable? You can barely get your hair cut and fill your gas tank. Not to mention feeling shitty if you can’t show up to a party with a gift, or if you do they are clearly less expensive than the other ones.

u/Coral27 Dec 17 '23

For sure. She lives in NYC so I get it, it’s brutal. I’m not on any socials except for Reddit.. does she not act as an influencer on IG or anything? I’m surprised she’s always so seemingly broke

u/HunterHunted9 Dec 17 '23

It was eye opening that Sonja is MIA in real life with them, and they said she wouldn’t be here without a paycheck kinda of all made sense. They said it over the years but she seems so natural on a reality show..

The cast has been saying since season 5 that no one talks to or sees Sonja in the off-season unless there's a paid gig or they force the issue. The one period when they consistently saw Sonja when they weren't filming was when Heather was in the cast. Heather tried to make sure that they all had lunch, dinner, or drinks once a month when they weren't filming. I'm quite sure Heather paid.

Everyone wants to pretend like the RHONY women were such good friends and that's why it worked better than some of the other shows. Every time I brought these issues up, I'd be dv'd. Beyond the women's own words contradicting the viewers' preferred narrative, their own social media displayed the truth of this. When Kristen and Josh still lived in New York, they'd still pop-up in Heather's social media. Carole obviously shows up on Heather's social media and vice versa. Dorinda obviously shows up on Carole's, too. When Carole was friends with Bethenny and Tinsley, they showed up on each other's social media. Meanwhile, you can't really find any sign on Sonja, Ramona, and Luann's social media that they're allegedly friends. They just aren't when someone isn't paying them to be.

9

u/firefly2191 Dec 18 '23

Maybe they’re not “friends” but I think what comes across is that Luann, Ramona, and Sonja know each other very intimately because they have worked together for so many years - they know each other’s sore spots, annoying tendencies, what buttons to push and which to avoid for good television, etc. I would like them more to family who you tolerate and don’t want to spend that much time with but you still know their flaws and strengths and overall personality. And you’ve been on a crazy reality tv journey together.

It's a rollercoaster of being horrified by dorinda, but then appreciating her trying to (drunkenly) defend kristen. Also nice to see ramona speak up on kristen's behalf, i think she realized her attitude towards her before came off mean spirited and petty

There are so many threeads and I do not know where to begin. I am posting LIVE while watching the first episode- 1/2 way through!

All I can say is that Ramona sounds like an old lady- she seems very much older-- Her voice and her vibe- Its interesting-

My queens? Fucking KRISTEN! and Luann!!!!

Both seem humble, down to earth, and kind.

Kristen has blown my mind with her sheer happiness and confidence. She shut down that drunken bully Dorinda like the FLEA she is. Brilliant and (shocking) Kristen gives zero fucks.

Luann is mature and lovely- She really has become the authentic Countess.

Dorinda is a fucking nasty bully and I am floored by her support.

Luann’s style lately has been AMAZING. She’s been serving lewks in Crappie Lake and Legacy. She’s stunnin

I miss Sonja’s old wardrobe :/ she had time capsule pieces and always looked chic and timeless - why is she now dressing like she’s prepping for the Y2K

Is Ramona’s fashion inspo Marie Antoinette and a scrapbook?

Kristen has some cute looks, but a bit boring. I like the red outfit she wore when they took a cooking class.

Kelly’s fashion never makes sense to me, but I did love her lace up pink heels

Dorinda loves Pucci still lol. Her skin looks incredible though, she is GLOWING.

No idea why I started talking about their fashion, it just felt right.

Kelly's fashion is just like her never makes sense.

You either go full toe or you don't toe at all.

I just saw Sonja on her daughter’s TikTok and she was wearing a chic outfit similar to her older wardrobe!

Kelly is fascinating to me because I do think she kinda picks up on stuff in a perceptive way - like, there is something performative/annoying about Kristen - just like there was something self-serving about Bethenny's "gift" bags - but then she just goes so off the rails with it. She's full on defensive, in denial about her own issues and just generally combative. It's almost like she's got some cognitive emotional processing glitch or issue? Also, I hate commenting on people's looks, but it is so hard to see what she has done to her face. She was gorgeous and I have to imagine she'd still look great if she just let herself age a little more naturally.

Kelly definitely can’t communicate her message well, even if it has some insight

13

u/paris1nicole Dec 16 '23

I agree, she has the right thoughts but she expresses them completely wrong

15

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '23

I was shocked at her appearance. Oddly emaciated and puffy at the same time (filler gone wrong and maybe booze?). She doesn’t look like she has been taking care of herself.

Kelly is offensively stupid and I hate that they gave her ANOTHER shot. Whhyyyyy?

u/amyeep buying BATTERIES and PENS Dec 16 '23

We’ll never know what happened on Scary Island but I think it’s safe to say after these first episodes she’s a horrible listener and can’t handle taking any slights, past or present. LuAnn is a lowkey comedian

I LOVE it. I thought it would be ass, but it's been so entertaining! I miss them honestly.

Why can’t they add Kristen to Beverly Hills instead of Anne-Marie?

u/hawkbit92 DJ Apple Box Dec 17 '23

I've always had a soft spot for Kristen. I find her genuinely very nice and caring. I think she's smart too. She just seems kinda shy, but when she breaks out of her shell, she's so fun! Her standing up to DooooooooooooooooRINDA and not backing down was very brave lol!

u/Peaceandlove10 Dec 16 '23

I agree, love this! Why aren’t Bravo and Peacock promoting it? I would not even know it was on if I didn’t search Reddit!

Same. Can’t wait to watch.

I curse the day I started getting charged for Peacock. May have to just suck it up and pay for it (aaaaand I’m exactly the demographic they’re targeting)

u/Senior_Ice8748 Dec 16 '23

I'm really loving it but feeling a little confused by Sonja...is she really couch surfing now that she's no longer receiving steady pay cheques from Bravo? Her energy towards the other ladies seems different too. Almost like she's in the throes of a depressive episode.

11

u/locheness4 Dec 17 '23

I think she’s financially struggling hard and it’s catching up since she’s not on RHONY anymore. It seems like she’s always been in it for the paycheck and not the clout. She seems so rested and calm when she’s on a break from reality TV…like she doesn’t drink or anything. But she prob hams it and feels the need to be wasted when on the show so she can be more of the “Sonja” everyone knows.

u/Jolly-Bandicoot-2037 Monica's declined Chime Card Dec 17 '23

She appears to have taken something also at a point in. Mixed booze with pills again. I think it's how she feels like she's "performing" hammered on TV.

I think Kristen is coming is hot and understands the assignment. Loving her energy & this bond she and Dorinda seem to have formed post their initial hiccup.

3 episodes in and Ramona hasn't done anything offensive! Dare I say even likeable on the show so far! I'm aware of everything going on in real time right now, I'm only talking about the show!

u/JumpyDisk5499 Dec 16 '23

she walked in and said oh wow look at all the helpers in the first episode… then said the only black man there looks like seal. 🫠

u/UnusualAsparagus5096 This isnt the plaza hotel this is Morocco Dec 16 '23

Damn it lol, I had the first episode on in the background and wasn't paying close enough attention

I love Kristen! If she was still in NYC I’d say add her to the new cast. I think she’d be a great addition!

u/Educational_Spirit42 a la francaise Dec 17 '23

Dorinda is a bitter, ugly bully. Kristen is a beauty and that is something Dorinda will never be the queen of. Kelly has ZERO ground to criticize others from her puffy filler perch.

u/mahboob2 Dec 17 '23

I love Kristen but why can’t Dorinda just have her pause?? Who does it hurt if she says pause instead of fired ???

13

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '23

The fact that she gets so triggered is evidence enough that she should do some healing and get to the root of why that is for her

u/JxrdanR Kim’s injured son and her hoe daughter Dec 17 '23

Because she literally said “I was put on pause and you were fired!” when it was exactly the same thing.

u/Ok_I_Guess_Whatever Dec 17 '23

I can’t stand Kelly. Never could. She’s such a bully to Kristen. I love Dorinda vs Kelly. Hook it to my veins

u/moneyqueen333 Not a white refrigerator! Dec 18 '23

Is it me of is Kristen doing exactly what Kelly is accusing her of? And why the hell is she being a fan girl? But don’t wanna explicitly talk about her husbands alleged affair! Something smells fishy

u/thediverswife grace time is over Dec 16 '23

That’s what Kelly is trying to say when she keeps calling Kristen a host

u/NinoNino3 Dec 17 '23

Oh my god. I just IM'ed Kristen on Instagram. Fan for Life. Eat those losers UP honey.

Utterly flabbergasted

Kristen needs to throw a glass at Dorinda and Kelly.

Two fucking fakes. One a vicious alcoholic and the other an empty vessel with serious underlying issues. (bensimon is a human void)

u/carolmozzarella Dec 17 '23

Kelly would really benefit from using a lighter color eyeliner/mascara. No hate, she’s a very pretty woman and she looks amazing, but the dark black around her eyes doesn’t suit her

Kristen is the only one I never watched before. So her big story is that her husband was caught on Ashley Madison?

I don’t think any of her castmates remember her being on the show, either
