Now let’s go to the set of Roseanne!
Brandi’s ironing her hair. She doesn’t have that book money yet, so she’s literally using an iron. Danger! After she searches the house, unable to find what’s burning, she calls Lisa and asks her if that slut waitress who boned her husband will be waiting tables tonight for the get together at Sur. Lisa says that ho bag isn’t there due to a bad case of vaginal scabies, so it all worked out. That fight will have to wait. Boooo!
Lisa is making last minute adjustments and telling Jax to make a virgin drink for Twitch. It will be called “I Shoulda Been Molly Ringwald”. Ken’s getting hip surgery tomorrow in hopes that a tighter mid section will help curb the silent fahts. Brandi and Lisa joke about B wanting to bone Ken, and Twitch jokes with them too!! WOW! Monster steps! Kyle isn’t there yet, and Twitch is just guessing that she’s probably somewhere being horrible to someone. Kim is just as adorable sober as she is wasted, and I can’t say that for many…actually I can’t say that for anyone.
Everyone else arrives and they all sit down to dinner. Lisa starts off the night by asking Twitch if she misses her best friend Charles Shaw. Kim says that mostly being sober is ok, but when she has to see people whose names rhyme with File and Dooreetz she wants to drink Sonoma. Kyle’s not good at rhymes, so she doesn’t get the dig.
B asks if Lisa snubbed Ad again. Lisa didn’t invite her, but only cuz Ad is busy cultivating the latest Chinese infant eye jelly she had shipped in. If you use it at just the right time, it’s supposed to help the wrinkles on the back of your knees. Brandi says she’s probably at home writing her book, and Lisa tells her not to be snide. She didn’t hear the whole Ad book deal claim and tries not to guffaw. Ken snarks “It won’t be very long.” Then everyone goes silent and blames the smell on the waiter.
Wasn’t me.
Kyle, still no life of her own to report on, decides to stir some shit up by asking Brandi why she’s mad at Ad. Well….her face has scared her children on multiple occasions, she lied about a book deal to compete with Brandi, her cheap shoes break easily and almost killed one of her drag queen friends, she and Paul called her and tried to convince her for an hour to go on Twitter and claim that she was lying about the accusations she made against Ad on the reunion,…hours pass. People get up to go to the bathroom, smoke, nap, redo their hair and come back an hour later,…B is still going. Adrienne has webbed toes, she’s a Satan worshipper only alive at 115 because of human sacrifices, and a closet Republican. Oh, and BLEEEEEEEEP!! WTF EDITORS?

I saw a site that said that Brandi said that Adrienne lied bout giving birth but instead used a surrogate for her children.
Holy God, how insane is it to buy an expensive car like that for a teenager. Jesus. Also, love, love, love the remark about Adrienne and “natural womanhood”–right the fuck on, Flipit, thank you. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, these stupid women look older with all of that excessive make-up and plastic surgery and uber-coiffed hair. Leave yourselves alone, ladies, please!!!
I think the kids aren’t Paul’s is what she said. That’s the only thing I can think of that would be so disgusting that they would bleep it out.
Flip did you see the Chenbot on WWHL and she trademarked Chetbot.
I am a telling it like it is kind of girl but I also know that there are things that you should and should not say. That makes you an asshole this episode Brandi.
But everyone must think that it’s the truth because NO ONE tried to stop Brandi. They were all just very quiet and moved on. If I was Ad I would be upset with everyone at the party.
Also you are able to call people a fucking bitch at a business party, but STFU at the dinner table is unaccepted. I think amazon has a book on rich people etiquette and if you like someone or not what you get to say and not look offended. I’m sure you can get it used for like 2.99. It’s a good read.
According to WetPaint….. Brandi said that Adrienne and Paul used a surrogate for their children, and Adrienne blatantly lied about during the dinner in Ojai where they all shared their birthing stories.
I also heard that later Brandi mentions Adrienne and Paul’s marriage troubles on camera, and Adrienne gets pissed and refused to film and threatened to sue again….
I agree though, the people at the table looked shocked that she said it out loud, but definitely didn’t contradict her.
Remember how mad Adrienne got when Russell threatened to sue Camille…. I think she said, “Friends don’t sue..”
That makes sense Jenna. I figured it was something about the kids.
I see no problem using a surrogate especially with Ad’s age. No disrespect but as you get older there are more complications so if you have the money to avoid that then by all means go ahead and do it. Healthy mommy and babies is the most important thing when having children.
Haven’t finished reading yet, as I’m at work and they actually want me to work… what is this world coming to??? I did have to make a comment about the Car though… Vyle stated that her daughter was deserving of such a nice car because among other things she was getting good grades. Isn’t this the same daughter who flunked the written portion of the driving test 3 times?
Back to reading… ummm I mean working.
I also read that the secret is she used a surrogate. It really should not be that big of a deal, but the fact that Ad went into details about she herself giving birth is not a good look.
I hope Paul realizes getting in Brandi’s face and cursing her out does not make him look chivalrous, just like an asshole. Yah Classy, where was the outrage that in front of Mauri’s business associates he is doing this. I agree also, Brandi could have and should have handled herself differently this episode. Still like her though, lol.
This news makes it interesting that, during the dinner at Ojai, Camille interviewed that the other women were talking about childbirth and she couldn’t contribute to the conversation because she had used a surrogate and didn’t know what it was like to give birth. Hmmm… dig by Camille or the editors with placement?
I know this may piss some of you off but it’s KYLE, she told her daughter about how she ‘stole Aunt Kim’s Ferrari’ when she was underage and broke down on Rodeo right? Maurice leased her a Mazaratti for the first episode and TBH, her kid is on TV and cousins with Paris and Nikki Hilton. You think Kyle isn’t the type to keep up with the Jones’? It costs around $4-500 to least a Mercedes these days. I’m sure that model didn’t even cost over 40k which means it doesn’t even have real leather seats. Remember we’re talking Bevery Hill dahlings, chi chi chi! (Not the real world)
Also, I’ve always assumed that Ad used a surrogate. It happens a lot around where I live, especially with working women who are pressured to have a career and wait as long as possible to have kids. I think her kids are still fairly young maybe 9 and 6 for the twins? Ad’s over 50. That’s three kids while she’s at a high risk age. She certainly has the money to do it so I agree, healthy Mom and babies are what count.
Plus can you see Ad eating enough to nourish growing fetuses? Not me. Lying about it however is the sad part. Even Camille admitted it…
Anyway, I think they all need some eqtiquette classes like Simon made Tam-RA take or, atleast a WWHL Clubhouse copy of updated Emily Post Manners for the Modern Woman.
PS-My mother used to iron her hair with an actual iron. But it wasn’t weave it was hers.
I also have noticed that most of the web is buzzing about the ‘secret’ being the surrogacy.
But this is such a NON-event, it is clearly ridiculous for the women, and then Ad and Paul, to blow is soooo out of proportion. It does put the Hoof in a bad light, considering her stories of C-sections and Paul’s bugging her while in labor. But so what? There is no shame in that. So maybe she did not want to admit to surrogacy at the table, or maybe she thought it was nobody’s business. That does not bother me at all.
And as such, I do not see how this could possibly be the bombshell. The Hoof would have no grounds to sue over the surrogacy comment, since it would have been the truth. So I think the secret was MUCH BIGGER, and much more SINISTER, for Paul and the Hoof to get this pissed about, and for most of the women to go deathly-white after B said it.
Last season, Ad talked about her brother driving a Corvette and said ‘he has no need for any phallic-symbol substitutes; trust me, I know; I’ve seen his @($& and it is huge’. I know, that comment made me gag at first, then left me with a whole new perspective on that family.
So here is my stab at the ‘secret’ : I think the kids are not Paul’s at all. I believe her brother’s sperm was used, and either Ad’s eggs (in which case, again, P U K E !!!!!), or the surrogate’s eggs. This way the kids are Maloofs thru and thru, which seems to be a huge social factor for the Hoof, and conveniently Paul can be kicked to the curb in divorce, as far as parental rights etc. go.
Sorry to make anyone else vomit in their mouth a little, but this family seems so sick, so twisted, so JUST NOT RIGHT, I can totally see that happening. Plus, if Paul did not know that this was the case, it would explain why Ad immediately said ‘B is insane, on drugs or something’, and threatened lawsuits right away. And why Paul was so righteously hurt and offended.
It reminded me of the limo scene with Russell last year, when he had no clue what Failor said about him, so he was so righteously indignant, only to be proven comletely unaware of the truth. That’s the same vibe I got with this ‘conversation/accusation’.
@Polk8dot…Although I can see the big secret being something bigger can I just ask you what doctor would do that? The health risks alone, I can’t…
I know a docotor will do about anything these days but DAYM! You went there on that one.
I know I said that the kids were probably not Paul’s but ummmm I don’t think that they are Ad’s brother’s either.
WOW…just WOW
Maybe the kids are Bernie’s?
@Polk8dot – That is the grossest thing I can imagine…or at least be willing to imagine.
“Maybe the kids are Bernie’s?”
Please, please, please let that be true. Please.
@Insanehousewife I nominate you for best theory so far!
“Maybe the kids are Bernie’s?”
Would make this the best show ever!
That is until the milkman comes forward and says he’s Ter’s kids father….
By not telling Adrienne’s secret the audience is left to think that she is keeping silent out of shame not a desire for privacy. However, allowing Adrienne’s false claim about Brady’s parenting to air seemed unfair. I inferred that issue had something to do with the Maloof children who seem oddly not present on camera and have broken their father’s nose twice in past seasons. Although I am loathe to spread gossip about kids, (and again I am just guessing), I would hazard to guess that the kids’ explosive behavior necessitated a placement outside of their family home. I don’t think surrogacy is the issue because clearly it involved something about Paul and Adrienne’s parenting given their reaction. Lastly, how odd and fakey was the Taylor and Kim confab after the dinner party at Sur?
Comments on another site seem to indicate the surrogacy as well. The problem is that it was written legally for all parties not to mention this while filming–that is what Brandi violated. She spoke the truth, but wasn’t supposed to speak about this issue.
This is what always chaps me–if there’s something you are forcing people not to talk about, why join a reality show if you are so concerned. Aren’t we past the first year of this genre and have seen time and again why it’s a bad idea?
Thanks All!
@Classy, then we could have a spin off… Weekend @ Bernie’s – staring the Mamma Hoof and her kids.
And we wonder how a rumor gets started…..
I think that Ad had artificial insemination from Charlie Sheen (it’s the tigerblood she was after) and then she LEFt the baby with Charlie Sheen and then…AND THEN Lindsey Lohan came by one day with her pet dingo…
That’s why Charlie Sheen and Lindsey Lohan are so strung out on drugs.
Yep!
Was anyone else charmed by Paul and Ad’s German shepherd obliviously playing tug while everyone was berating Paul about his back hair? That dog just didn’t give a F****CK. I love it when they show dogs on tv in the background that have no idea they’re supposed to do anything but be dogs.
I feel ripped off that there was not enough Yolanda on this episode. I find her weirdly hypnotic, with her squinty eyes and creepy sing-song “Hel lo my loooove”
This is how impressed I am by the righteous Yolanda – I did not realize she wasn’t on the show until much later when I read a recap. Brandi is a one note song. She says or does something horribly offensive then says she regrets it and that is supposed to make it okay. Over and over and over. There were so many stories during the filming of this season about how super drunk Taylor was at a number of events – esp. Portia’s b’day party. But Bravo is not showing this. Why? Perhaps they are doing the RHONY thing where they are making the first several episodes boring in order to make the drama seem more dramatic once they introduce it. Or maybe they are just so sick of Taylor they’re not going to reward her with screentime which is a real possibility.
@Oliver would that not be on public record though? Unless of course they sent them away to one of those behavioral camps in Oregon or something. Not entirely impossible but, I could see them being sent away to boarding school as part of their ‘education’ to get ready for the Maloof empire and simply left at that. Not the gaspfast that happened at the party that it seems EVERYONE knew about which brings me back to the point if they were removed it would be puclic record for all to see.
Or, they are on Zenu.
Awesome recap! I laughed out loud many times.
I hear Zenu is nice this time of year.
@EDY…I think Bravo is lessening Taylor’s onscreen drunkeness because Taylor is getting the sads from flipit”s relentless mockery of her.
It’s a $35,000 car fully loaded. Not a big deal at all.
Polka – I can’t believe you hit “post comment” wow.
Brandi – stop complaining about LeAnn. You have some huge issues yourself.
Jenn – I don’t think Adrianne sees Brandi as a friend.
I’m thinking it is the opposite. The kids aren’t Adrianne’s but they are Paul’s.
Flipit thanks for your quick work. When do you sleep?
BAM! Thanks for doing the homework @lab…
35K vs Paris’ 200K Mercedes…chump change. You know those cousins have to feel a little ass out.
Flipit is out doing Meth with Twitch on Zenu. The Scientologists don’t sleep.
Kidding!
Can somebody refresh my memory about what Brandi said to Ad at the reunion that was so bad? The crack about Paul being a married man question mark? Maybe that’d sound worse if it hadn’t turned out that their marriage was a crock of shit.
Also I need it explained to me what’s so terrible about using a surrogate to get a baby. That they’re so vain they’ve just got to raise kids made out of their DNA? Women have babies with their own bodies for that exact same reason every day. I’m the only 1 with the controversial opinion that they should adopt prêt-à-élever 1s instead.
Maybe I don’t get it since I don’t have maternal instinct. But to me, saying that how they got born defames your character sounds like it’s a huge insult to your kids. Not to mention nobody knew it was a secret.
Which is how come that dinner scene looked even more staged than usual. With that voiceover of Camille talking about how she had a surrogate. That you could tell got tacked on later. To go right next to Ad trying to squeeze an embarrassed expression out of that rubber sewed in her face. And look like she was making stuff up off the top of her head to mumble.
Sorry for the tangent. But I spent close to 2 whole seasons accusing Adrienne of not being trashy enough to be a Real Housewife. Right here on the internet. And I’m not by myself.
So when she turns out to be near about as trashy as Kim Zolciak, a whole mess of people’s characters are going to feel like they got defamed.
Well we know or actually have heard about other housewives attempting to get things removed from air with zero success. Whatever Brandi said, it crossed a line and Bravo agreed with Ad.
A little off topic but wasn’t Ad the one who “introduced” Brandi into this group last season? If they were friendly before the show she may well have that level of dirt on the Hoof. Whatever it is.
But calling someone on drugs and crazy seems mighty defensive if you ask me. Doth though protest too much?
Also, if Ad’s kids were taken away then the Guidice girls should have been removed from their home years ago, no?
@Polka – somebody has watched too much Game of Thrones.
The secret being surrogacy AND the kids not being from Adrienne’s eggs sounds very plausible. I always wondered how she had such young kids. Makes complete sense now.
labowner, I agree…and I think the only thing that could cross the Bravo scary legal line would be an unsubstantiated charge or something ongoing involving minor children. The surrogacy thing is not that shocking. But Adrienne was accusing Brandi of being a bad mother when she was trying to defend herself. Which makes me think somehow the whole thing had to do with Adrienne and/or Paul being neglectful parents or abusive.
I am wondering what was said, because Brandi is on speaking terms with Paul. She thanked him for finding a good surgeon for her boob surgery.
Holy shitballs….i missed last night’s ep (but DVRd it) and i am already 34 comments behind? Nooooooo. Don’t you forget about meeeeee
I know, good point – makes one think it was probably negative to Adrienne…although Paul certainly was freaking out too. It appears at this time in the series that he is trying awfully hard to be a supportive spouse. That was one fast and nasty divorce – and she has plenty of money to spend trying to smear him but nothing she threw out seemed to stick on him in the legal process. Logically (I can’t believe I am using that word in reference to this show, lol) it would be a shocking secret about HER. Also, now that I am warming up here….at the point this happened they were still married and she wasn’t worried about him divulging her secrets. Whatever it is, it’s freaking brilliant on Bravo’s part to keep us all guessing.
Now….I’m starting to think Adrienne talked about Paul being a control freak and C-sections because those were the circumstances and they were present, but at a surrogate’s birth……….
Thoughts?
@Labowner, they are and they even tweeted support of each other after the episode last night so, it looks like it’s Ad and not Paul/Brandi…
Loving hearing the theories. Just read Kim’s blog on bravotv and I am agreeing with the theories of Ad not being the kids biological mother…..
Yes, labowner, that was going to be my first question: Flipit, when do you SLEEP? But please continue staying up all night writing the recaps cos it’s awesome knowing the very next day the recap is up!
@annie: I did the same thing (DVRed) and wound up way behind on the comments, too, lol.
Surrogacy was the first thing that popped into my head, with a vision of Ad talking at dinner about the births. And that does play in to Brandy being pissed off about a “lie” everyone was in on, but I totally get why there are those of you who thought that seemed awfully trivial for such a reaction. As I’ve learned with Giuliana and Bill there are true surrogates and gestional carriers, and both are pretty common nowadays. Nothing to be ashamed of.
Dammit we need to know the real scoop! And I need to actually finish reading the recap!
Whatever she said, Brandi claims it is going to cost her a pretty penny. You would think she would learn to shut her mouth, but here it is months later and she is still flapping her lips.
“How many shots do you think this took?”
If they told Padama the fish was a millionaire, then I’m guessing one.
Loving the theories! It’s like Lost, only much trashier and turkey neckier.
And WaffleBoy, if it was a millionaire she would have caught it in her mouth.
So here’s my theory, maybe Brandi accused Adrianne of abuse (Paul/kids). We know that when Paul and Adrianne went to court for their divorce they said some pretty nasty things about each other. Paul said that Adrianne verbally and physically abused him infront of the children and Adrianne claims that Paul was violent with her and the kids. We also know that as of now, Paul and Brandi are not only on speaking terms but friendly as well.
I can’t see someone getting so bent out of shape in regards to saying they used a surrogate…sure it might be private but its not earth shattering…calling someone a spouse/child abuser is. Thems fighting words. And again…I could TOTALLY see Kim running to tell on something like that, it’s that mother’s instinct that bonded her to Adrianne in the first place. In addition look at the issue reg. Taylor last year, those women didn’t want to address the issue of domestic violence again. Hence total silence.
In the short, overly dramatic one on ones with the ladies during the dinner they all seemed to keep using the word “personal”, like Brandy was telling them all Paul’s tallywacker is smaller than Kelsey’s or that Ad is actually…THAT’S IT! Adrienne was actually born a man and therefore could not have given birth to her kids!
That also might explain some of Adrienne’s more, um, masculine qualities and overdone plastic surgery!
Hell. It could be true [disclaimer - all theories set forth in this comment are opinions and do not reflect, necessarily, the reality of the situation. Thank you. Please do not sue me.].
A woman I know wanted a child in her late 40′s she actually carried it herself but, went to a fertility clinic and had abandoned eggs planted in her uterus and fertilized by her husband…long/short they match the dna as much as they could and pass the son off as theirs. This is not the first woman I’ve known to do this… as I said earlier it’s becoming common practice around here.
I could see that being the situation..That Ad carried the kids but the eggs weren’t hers. That would also explain the cesearan’s as she would be older, high risk, etc. Hoof if nothing else, does take care of her body physically so who knows?
I’ll simply die if Paul and Brandi get together…LMAO!
I have always been suspect of Pauls black eyes. I noticed that when he showed up with another Black Eye it was the other kid that did it that time. A good father doesn’t throw the same kid under the bus everytime. Yayy Paul. pfftt
I have seen the pics of Ad taken by her friend Beavus.
What bothers me is that it was so quick for them to blame it on the kids. They were beating the shit out of each other and it was a pre-emptive strike. Everytime they showed up at an event they could say that (A) kid was practicing a flip.
Ok, finally had a chance to watch this shit show, and whatever he big secret is, what the hell is Brandi’s right to say anything at all?
I am leaning towards the kids not being Ad’s biological kids, most likely she had an egg donor, Paul’s spermz, and carried the babies herself. Maybe due to medical concerns due to her age or something else. I know someone with severe endometriosis and that’s what she had to do. Maybe Ad and Paul’s kids didnt really know yet? Maybe they dont wanna talk about it on camera? Maybe is’ NONE OF BRANDI’S FUCKIN BIZZZNISS!!!! Sorry, that deserved caps.
I am so tired of people talking massive amounts of shit, spilling secrets, and being a jerk under the umbrella of the “Oh well, I speak my mind and if you dont like it, too bad” defense. Brandi is not doing herself any favors. She needs to read Camille Grammar book of “How to Handle a Shitty Divorce Situation” because homegirl is losing her mind.
Speaking of which, will her 12 hour Vegas Wedding from about 8 months ago make the show? GOD I HOPE SO
I think Ad and Paul’s kids are adopted and they haven’t told them yet, and that’s why it’s a big deal. All the other women stated that Ad is very protective of her family, and I don’t think you need to protect your family from a surrogacy, but you would if your children didn’t know they were adopted yet.
Also, whatever the secret was, has to be something that is potentially slanderous for the Bravo producers to actually bleep it out. As we all know, Bravo producers don’t care about the well being of their cast, so I doubt anyone would be jumping in to protect the Ad/Paul family. I think they would have been liable for broadcasting slanderous content and could have been sued for a TON of money. There could also be a potential injunction put forth by the court regarding this, which is another reason Bravo had to choose to not air the quote.
Having a baby via surrogacy is just not juicy enough for it to have not aired.
Daddy Cedrick?
My first thought about the secret was that it involved Ad and her brother. Her reference to him and his car was as creepy as Ter’s brother’s comments about her at their therapy session. Takes me back to Angelina’s “thank you” kissing her brother at the Oscars.
Did anyone else catch Brandi saying she’s a “Truth Cannon” early in this epi?
Aside from the cost of Vile’s daughter’s car, I thought it was cute the way her dad used the egg throwing ruse to lure her out to see it.
I think that Ad was born as one of those babies that have both boy and girl genitalia and the parents went with girl but she was really a boy, hence the deep voice. She had no ovaries so she could not have kids and hence the surrogate. Paul never knew about the baby sex change thing her parents did and that is why he sided with Brandi after the divorce…and Zenu is very nice this time of year
waaay to out there? lol
Absolutely Paul knew about the sex change.
He did the surgery himself. Of course.
And it is Brandi who was the surrogate. Everyone already knows that. They were only shocked because they didn’t think Brandi knew.
I found this on Realitytea.com…. no sources were credited, so I have no idea if it’s true. But it does explain why Bravo would bleep the surrogacy line out.
“WE INTERRUPT THIS RECAP FOR A GOSSIP ALERT: Now the alleged reason the word “surrogate” was bleeped out is because Adrienne and Paul took legal action against not only Brandi, but reportedly they are also suing Bravo for defamation and slander. Yikes!
Because of this Adrienne will not be returning next season and the lawyers won’t (can’t?) let the actual accusation be aired so Bravo is throwing it in Adrienne’s face and airing everything BUT the actual word. This should be an interesting reunion, eh. Brandi and Adrienne have settled their issue, but word is the suit pertaining to Bravo is still on-going! “
This show makes me long for Downton Abbey’s return next month. There are plenty of dirty dealings and scandals on that show, but it’s all done in a very classy, polite manner, with well-modulated voice tones. These BH people horrify me. Send them all to Zenu, please.
i’m liking the hermaphrodite theory!
Billy I agree that neither surrogacy nor adoption is the issue. Considering Miss Lisa has an adopted child, I would think Adrianne would be happy to say “Well we adopted three children” ie we got Jackpot to counter Giggy.
Adrienne is such a friggan baby if this is all over surrogacy. And talk about sue happy. Jaysus woman, you had kids late in life and used a surrogate so did half of the women in LA, WHO CARES? Camille did it b/c she didn’t want to ruin her body, does it get worse in the reasoning department?
I’m now leaning toward thinking this is a big nothing and Bravo is amping it up for drama.
Also if it wasn’t Brandi’s news to tell why was it Twiches to tell Ad & Paul at her SISTER’s party. I am no Kyle fan but Twitch doesn’t really treat Kyle very well either it looks like. Save it for a time when you’re not at a business function for your brother in law, lady!
Wait this is reality TV…my bad!
Adrienne is such a friggan baby, period. I’m recalling her indignation at Lisa over Lisa’s daughter choosing to have a party at some hotel other than Ad’s hotel. She got pretty mad at Lisa for making a harmless joke about Ad’s shoe line as “Maloof’s hoofs.” She also has to top everybody, like with the dog to compete with Giggy, and the shoe line to compete with Lisa’s shoe line, and announcing her book deal on top of Brandi’s book announcement. And did you notice the gleam in her eye when she said that she was gonna slap Brandi with a lawsuit?
I do believe Brandi admitted to effing up by saying what she said, and it is going to cost her big bucks. Whatever it is she is totally in the wrong as evidenced by Bravo bleeping whatever it was she said. Bravo has proven they only care about their bottom line. What Brandi blurted out was/is going to hurt them monetarily.
Brandi said that she pissed off the wrong rich person and that he was really gonna cost her. Even if Ad’s suit has no merit whatsoever, she can still inflict punishment on Brandi by causing her the time and expense of having to defend against it. Any legal expense Ad incurs is a pittance compared with her total worth, but it could cost Brandi nearly everything she has. Ad is a bitch and a bully and a mean, petulant twat.
* IT was really gonna cost her
Gleam in her eye is right.
And clearly Bravo is just as scared for bleeping it out. They didn’t bleepout any part of Failor and Russel in fact, they went ahead and aired footage of the man after he died.
Messed with the wrong rich person indeed.
But wait a sec…if Ad’s lawsuit turns out to be total malarkey, won’t the judge (usually) make Ad (the plaintiff) pay Brandy’s (the defendant) court costs and attorney’s fees?
Also, am I the only one who didn’t hear anything actually bleeped out? Or is everyone speaking metaphorically and saw what I did, ie Brandy’s “…” and SCENE.
I’m really curious if her answer was *one* word or might have been a whole sentence and/or paragraph. Bravo made it abundantly clear (or tried to play it that way) that Brandy barely took a breath dissing Ad and Paul for eons.
Dammit! BrandI. BrandI. BrandI. Sigh.
Sorry to chime in again, but I was just over on another site (for a TINY little peek, swear! Not cheating on the Gasm. Much.), and I wonder if we Gasmii are just chill or just odd. Many of us like Brandi and realize she just occasionally goes overboard. This other site had 90% of the comments absolutely slamming the shit out of her. I was surprised – for realsies!
@too-old-to-care I missed the remark about Ad’s brother’s car. What was it?
@AmyOops That’s what I’d been wondering. Would every judge in the world think how her kids were born defamed her character? But then it’s a super rich family. Even with their $ troubles lately. So maybe any judge that’d be liable to get the case would want to agree with Ad.
It seems like if Brandi said Ad hit the kids that would’ve gotten out. Some sound guy or somebody would’ve leaked it. At least I hope they would. Even though rich people get a pass on a lot of stuff. Once they’re on a reality show it gets harder to know what’s true and made up for drama. But also harder to keep secrets secret.
Maybe it wasn’t exactly about how the kids were born. But how Ad got them. What if it was in a way that might be super illegal if a poor person did it?
Amy I am going to assume as a group we have a better grip on reality and take these shows for what they are. Remember not may soaps left and those rabid fans have moved on over to reality. Yikes.
Maybe Brandi said that Ad and Paul bought those babies…maybe Ad wore a fake belly for 9 months…it would be sorta kinda defamation to imply they “bought” the kids. Maybe Brandi used the wrong words for surrogate? I don’t freaking know!! Why has someone not leaked the full story on this?? Anyone read Vyle’s blog…Brandi should not have talked about personal things even if they are on a reality show”? Um hello? Calling your sister Twitch out on being an alcoholic and a drain on Maury’s finances ring a bell Vyle?
They are all a bunch of hypocrites and I live out here in Los Angles!!!
Who died and left Brandi in charge of doling out truth? Whether or not surrogacy is a big deal is up to the people involved to decide, not Brandi. And Twitch might think she was warning Adrienne for her own good, but really she was just wanting approval and attention. Probably the producers put her up to anyway. And Kyle is stupid if she thought Mauri’s event was gonna get free coverage without there being some good shit going down.
@kthxbai – an absolute defense to slander and defamation is the truth. So long as Brandi is telling the truth they don’t have a winning case with respect to slander/defamation. I also think they’d have a hard time winning an invasion of privacy case given the public nature of their lives (unless Brandi signed a confidentiality agreement with them??), but to Crankyguy’s point…defending yourself is very expensive and time consuming and could also explain why Bravo chose to err on the side of caution and not air what Brandi said whether it was true or not.
I hate when I log out and I made a spectacular comparison b/w Ad’s kids not being real Maloof’s like Khloe is not a real Kardasian.
That’s like seeing Haley’s comment and dammit, ya’ll missed it b/c I logged out!
@wow I was wondering about that. Since I never thought she got her babies with the DIY uterus method. I was surprised she’d even think that was a secret to anybody.
That’s how come I got to wondering if it could be 1 of those things that’d normally be illegal. Like if you or I did it.
What’s true or not wouldn’t matter if she’s got the judges squeezed in her pocket with all that $. Plus even if she knows it’d get thrown out she also knows Brandi’ll have to give whatever $ she’s got to a lawyer.
Maybe they impregnated the housekeeper with a turkey baster and kept her tied up in her spa wing , tied to one of those spa tables till she gave birth? My morning theory.
I read somewhere there was a confidentiality agreement signed and Brandi fucked up. Although I don’t know why Brandi would know something so secretive about a person she was only acquaintances with.
Nota – I don’t think you can compare what siblings do to and say about each other with Brandi blabbing out something about Adrianne. My opinion.
What keeps jumping out to me is that the lawsuit includes “defamation of “character”.
Since the ability or inabilty to reproduce has nothing to do with character, I think it goes something like this;
Remember the first season when the were getting together for the first time by the pool and Camille showed up in stripper heels and all the gals had a fit, except for Lisa.. OK I am getting off track.
I seem to recall Ad handing Taylor a tiny package in that episode and they both acted as if the camera didnt catch it. Back then, folks said it might have been perfectly innocent and Taylor needed an asprin. Or, my fav, “she needed a tampon” , as if she wouldnt have alreaded loaded up before she went to the pool.
LOng story short. I thnk that Ad is the pill mill for BH.

Okay now, kthxbai and others…you’re trying to destroy the teeny tiny itty bitty touch of faith I have left in the judicial system lol. Granted that faith is a very well hidden and minuscule “happy bubble” somewhere buried deep in my brain, but it won’t let me believe that ALL judges can be bought. Oh who am I kidding. Everyone has a price.
labowner: Aside from making me giggle-snort a little about the rabid soap fans, I just had to tell you I’m super curious about any possible “confidentiality agreement” . Sounds mysteriously sinister. Awesome.
I am curious to what Brandi said. I am sure it will all come out eventually. I hate Ad and Kyle. So there is that.
What I really want to know is why it was ok for Paul to call Brandi and fucking bitch, but it was not ok for Brandi to call Ad a bitch…
Kyle is a total hypocrite! You don’t call out peoples private business on tv…hello! Eff you! and your husband too. Mr I was on Forbes 100 list. blah blah blah…
I do like Brandi, but she needs to know when to shut her trap. I wish she would have told Ad to shut the fuck up again!!
I am having issues with timelines. Shouldn’t this case have started already? If Ad is really going through with suing? Why wasn’t this bombshell leaked during filming? Did Bravo go ape shit on everyone on all franchises when Jersey was spilling all the dirt last season?
SLUT PIG!
Someone has to move this thread along to the century mark.
@Gypsy’s right. We’re so close. And there are so many more theories to think up.
Plus I’ve got a question. When she files her lawsuits does she have to tell how Brandi and Bravo and anybody else she’s suing that day defamed her? Or will they let her keep it secret?
What I want to know is how did Brandi not counter sue for the same? We’ve seen more ridiculous lawsuits play out than this and work.
So apparently Brandi spilled the beans that Adrienne used a surrogate for both of her pregnancies. The woman is old it makes sense that she used a surrogate. Why not? Camille did. Not a big deal. The cover up was bigger than the actual secret.
Hold up a second. Wasn’t there a scene that played out in the “This season on the real Housewives of Beverly Hills…” segment that showed Brandy and Adrienne and maybe someone else at a picnic table when Brandy storms off after asking Ad something like, “So you’re NOT suing me?” or “So there IS no lawsuit?” and Ad confirms there is not one?
Wow. That was a very long grammatically challenged sentence/question lol, but I think you guys know what I’m getting at
Here is the only instance I will get behind this statement – think of the children. It’s none of our business how Ad and Paul had/got/paid for their children.
I still say I think she supplies her friends with drugs. It sure looked like it at least once.
The term Defamation of Character is what I keep thinking of and I can’t for the life of me reconcile that character is relevant in the case of infertility.
Thats why I think she was doing something that does have to do with character. I also think that Paul, like any other husband would/should took up for her at first, then, he found out what Brandi said was true so they broke up.
I have another theory. But I am going to make another post, well, you know why
Robin
There was a blind gossip item last year about a RHBH couple who had an open marriage and their marriage was starting to unravel. May be Brandi called her out on that?
Ad was really the one that leaked the story to the press. Lisa had nothing to do with it (we knew that). She accused Lisa at the reunion because she thought she would be able to take Lisa down a peg because she wanted to be top dog and Lisa was the Star of the show.
It backfired and Ad just ended up looking like a troublemaker. The bitch is rich enough to buy the proof that Lisa went to a tabloid. She came empty handed and looked like a fool, as well.
@Labowner,
I can’t say as I would agree with that. Brandi is a bitch on wheels when she wants to be, but I just can’t see her commenting on their marriage. Especially after she had her marriage dragged through the tabloid mud.
Also, isn’t it just Ad suing? If it was about the marriage then you would thing paul would be in the lawsuit.
hmmmmm
I also have a hard time believing that she would talk about Ad and Pauls kids. For the same reason that I believe she wouldn’t talk about their marriage.
It has to be something else. Well, doesn’t have to, but if it is indeed about those kids then she sure pulled the wool over my eyes and she should be ashamed of herself.
Might Miss Ad be gay or bi-sexual?
But does that rise to defamation of character? Being Gay or Bi has no more to do with character than the way you become a parent.
I know, I keep getting caught up in the defamation of character thing…
I just keep looking for character flaws..
@AmyOops There sure was! So we might be the 1s getting played out. By Bravo.
@Robin I thought about Brandi being a mom too. So anything about the kids would have to be so bad it’d trump stuff like not knowing they were adopted yet.
That’s how come I keep going back to it being something that was a secret from Paul too. Since it’s just Ad’s character that got defamed. And he’s not mad at Brandi anymore. What I can’t figure out is how would Brandi know it?
Unless she just happened to know somebody else that was involved. From her shady trailer past. But that starts to sound too much like a scripted show plot. Not to mention Ad’s like 3rd generation casino family. She wouldn’t be that careless.
Plus that whole theory only works if you read the expressions on the rest of them’s dinner faces as shock of being horrified. Instead of shock that somebody said something they know but don’t talk about.
So now I’ve started leaning more to @AmyOops ‘s new Breaking Amish theory.
I think it is also reasonable to assume that Ad thinks infertitlty is a character flaw, come to think of it…
I am glad that Brandi was a topic. It has been awhile since we have had cock!
Regarding the little package Ad slipped to Taylor, remember that Taylor is Paul’s patient, so it’s very possible that she was giving her pills of some kind. Can’t really see Ad being the pill provider for BH, but then again, her husband is a doctor, so maybe.
Just thinkin…maybe Brandi was talking about Adrienne’s facelift? That would not be something Ad would want spread around.
@NotaNJHousewife,
Heh, Brandi doesnt have to say anything about Ad’s face. It speaks for itself
COCK!
@kthxbai: Lol!
@Robin: *Excellent* 100th comment!
Maybe Brandi said that Ad hired a surrogate b/c she would never ruin her body or have the time or deal with being pregnant. That would be defamation. Another website is reporting that Ad has been havong an affair w/ someone well known in the area and that is the reason for the divorce.Also that this guy does not want it to come out…ppl were speculating Bernie…but he is gay…some one also said Mark Walburg…oh and the guy is a producer…hmmmm
Congrats Robin! I’m proud of you!
Aww, Shucks.
xoxo, Robin
@Robin, @Gypsy. Also remember when Paul had a broken nose, as well. Now I honestly believe it may have not been the kids injuring him……. About the surrogacy, — I think that the surrogacy rumor is a decoy.. Since it became obvious after watching the episode, even with all the bleeps, that the “secret” is something along the lines of something to do with their children…..that people in general, not having extensive knowledge of surrogacy, as well as egg donation, etc. , would just think that Adrienne and Paul overreacted to something that’s not THAT off the wall. I think the secret is maybe she used an egg donor but carried the pregnancys herself. That would make the way the ladies turned pale white and were speechless after Brandi mentioned the secret at dinner, more plausible. Surrogacy doesn’t raise eyebrows these days, because the kids are still biologically the parents’ kids, but since using donor eggs is common knowledge, it still would bring a more pronounced reaction . A lot of people are using egg donation these days, but aren’t discussing it because the woman gives birth to the child and no one knows that the child has another womans dna. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to use an egg donor to become pregnant, so only very wealthy woman whose own eggs are not viable, can afford this type of fertility treatment. I think that there are thousands of kids being born whose parents have no intention of ever revealing the truth to their kids.
If any or all of peoples’ speculations about Adrienne’s “secret” are true or not, I don’t blame her for being very angry about Brandi revealing it to the world. But, didn’t she take many hundreds of thousands of dollars from Bravo, to appear on a reality show.? Anyone in her position would have reacted strongly if they had that secret revealed. But, unless Brandi had a legal contract with Adrienne and Paul to not reveal their secret, then I don’t see how they can sue her, if what she said was true
Our first episode to cross the hundred comment mark!! Well done people!! Loves, FlipitCOCKHATETERESA
now I don’t know whattothink. Because after watching the episode for the nth time, I forgot who said , that its a secret about Adriens family, NOT Adrian and Pauls family. So, if that’s the case, this may not have anything to do with the children OR, they are true but their is the ADDITIONAL bombshell about her family. I don’t think we will ever know what the secret is, because they really do have everyone wrapped up, Brandi Bravo, and anyone else who tries to reveal anything. I’m done with this, ! used too many brain cells thinking about it already!
@ Robin, yes I agree Ad might think infertility is a character flaw and refer to any insinuation that shes infertile as defamatory. But I think the real issue with her would be that she may have lied to so many people about this secret, that now she is highly embarrassed to have to look everyone in the face again. that’s why she is possibly so angry at Brandi. Remember, in Beverly Hills these people are so fake, they spend millions of dollars to show off what they have to their equally fake friends, so their image is everything to them. and to be exposed is embarrassing.
@olivesmom cosign on comment #105. That happens where I live often as I mentioned above somewhere…
And I’ll drop a LABIA @ #110
Polk8dot, I DO think you are right about it being her brother’s sperm rather than Paul’s but I do not think it was Adrianne’s eggs. My guess is she was too old to harvest healthy eggs, donor eggs were used and the decision was made that the child could only be a Maloof in this fashion. Only male Maloof zygotes were allowed to come to term. At the time the children were concieved, the Maloof fortune was still all that, and the Maloof bloodline was considered paramount to inheiritance issues. I will go one step further and guess the sperm used to fertilize the donor eggs was a cocktail of all four of her brothers ejaculate (I will concede there is a possiblity of Paul’s sperm being added to the semen cocktail as well…. fastest sperm wins) as it is unlikely that any of them will marry and reproduce, thus ensuring an emotional investment by the brothers in the entire fortune flowing to Adrianne’s children..
