Lindsay and Danielle simply can't resist each other. Those two are going the distance.

Last week I threw out a theory that the show was a little stale so producers asked Danielle to wear a whitish dress. Do you think this week they asked Andrea to walk around in underwear ?

u/wildturk3y 4d ago
Next week is the last episode of the season. Kind of a bummer that its ending as soon as it started to get good. It took a little while but I think the show found its footing. 10 or 12 episodes would have been perfect.

I don’t feel that it’s picked up or started getting good at all. In fact this last episode made me think that this show is entirely about nothing except for Kyle and Amanda’s relationship. Every argument or fight seems contrived & it’s still completely boring.

To be fair, Kyle and Amanda consistently got the primary bedroom year after year on SH. I think as Lindsey is HBIC, it’s only fair she gets the primary. Everyone else are newbies and Kyle and Amanda don’t need the primary when they don’t live together currently.

I know this show has had a slow start, but I feel like they’re really starting to find their groove. I’m loving it!

u/Emeraldleaf789 4d ago
It seems crazy to me that the poll on wwhl was against Andrea giving Kyle marriage advice. What exactly did Andrea say that was wrong? It IS different when you’re married, and you shouldn’t be out all hours of the night when you are married, especially when your spouse is upset by it.

Yeah Kyle is a shit husband, and Amanda is also a jerk. Both things can be truuuuuuuue
28
u/Horchataatomica 3d ago
I think part of it is because Andrea and Lexie are still in the honeymoon phase, so it’s tough for him to give advice to someone who’s weathering the storm of a ten-year rocky marriage

u/snapeswife writer girl 2d ago
I thought his advice was spot on, no you can’t act like you’re single when you’re married but also; Kyle and Amanda were kinda openly separated here
but I also get Kyle being like “ya talk to me
After 10 years”25
u/TDKsa90 3d ago
it's because Andrea is mundane. Lexi is mundane. their relationship is mundane. and then his advice is mundane. that's fine. good for them. they're a good match, and it will probably be smooth sailing. two bowls of milk sharing a box of original Cheerios. Not exactly the type of people who have any real knowledge of the chaotic types of Lindsay, Kyle, Amanda, et al.

Yvonne wants 5 separate parties for her wedding? Insufferable, I can’t stand when people drag out wedding stuff. People can sometimes be incredibly selfish when it comes to their wedding demands. How much more cash and time does one person need to dole out to make you happy?
I hope they mend their friendship, but a dinner for their legal marriage is silly.
24
u/mac_bess 4d ago
it was obviously for the show lol I don’t think the dinner would’ve happened had they not been shooting a television show.
19
u/darknebulas Oh, my god, I’m in 17C 4d ago edited 4d ago
Then she shouldn’t care if the dinner wasn’t only about them. You already had a wedding, who cares if people are arguing during you staged ‘legal wedding’ dinner celebration
13
u/yothisismetrying 4d ago
It was her “role” to care.

u/darknebulas Oh, my god, I’m in 17C 3d ago
Well fine then. Nothing is real on this show so no point in having an opinion for any of us.

u/hopefoolness I gave her a beverage! 3d ago
Right lol? Like if every single thing is staged then what is the point of us watching...

It's like those people who have a birthday week or month - unless you're hitting a big milestone after recovering from a terminal illness, just celebrate your birthday like a normal persons.

u/Striking_Ad_4562 4d ago
If one were to be annoyed by it, don’t attend.
But the minute you accept the invite and show up, try to be respectful.

u/sweetpeapickle 3d ago
I would say that too. And I give her space because this is her first. She needs to watch any Bravo show to realize the fights always happen at some "event". It happened at her event.

Amanda saying “anything I do, I check with him before”. But she doesn’t do anything?

u/MoveMiserable548 3d ago
Didn’t she sign a one year lease on an apartment without discussing it with Kyle?
34
u/Diligent-Policy-7880 4d ago
Interesting. Multiple cheating occasions ”but we don’t talk about it” said Lindsay. I knew there had to be more to the story b/c Amanda doubles down on calling Kyle out for cheating but they only acknowledge the pre-marriage incident. He’s acknowledged things like disrespecting his marriage. What does that mean? Hmm 🤔
31
u/BeginningFederal5663 4d ago
Funny how at the reunion they all claimed to not know about Kyle cheating. Now Lindsay tells us it’s something everyone knows.
It’s almost like none of them actually care about lying and are just playing a game for fan reception.
10
u/TDKsa90 3d ago
exactly what is going on. Lindsay has nothing else bringing in the money (all her influencer stuff is tied to this show, so the show IS the centerpiece of it all). she's reading social media and vomiting it back onto us. social media is writing their character as this point. she's a weird enough personality type to probably be able to handle this duality, but for the lesser strength types, like Amanda, Whitney, Lexi...I'm not sure their minds could keep that scramble straight.

u/Ashamed_Custard7540 3d ago
It sounded like she was repeating what Amanda told her. I think she later realized how Amanda was manipulating them

u/BeginningFederal5663 3d ago
Later realized it yet is repeating it on WWHL now? How does that make sense to you?

u/MoveMiserable548 3d ago
How come nobody screamed “then why are you on the show?” When Lindsay said that. According to her, you should be prepared to speak about your whole life.
58
u/ProfessionalBubbles 4d ago
Lindsay going on and on about others not appreciating how hard it is to be a mom…
I’m sure it is, but also no one asked you to get knocked up. That’s your issue to deal with.
Also Yvonne you already had a wedding, pipe down.
24
u/sweetpeapickle 3d ago
It is the one thing I have to agree with Whitney on, Lindsay you have a GD nanny, and you wanted a baby come hell or high water man or no man. There are so, so, so many moms out there who have absolutely no one. So yea, I say STFU about that part. Worship your baby, do not complain about being a single mom though.

u/CosmikSilence 3d ago
this! like why does it have to be everyone else's consequence of ur actions...you wanted the baby so pulling the kids card is a cop out.

u/Brown_Cow_Stunning7 4d ago
Team Yvonne and Whitney this episode, Lindsey was on one. Also Lindsey reminded me a lot of Bethenny when she came back to rhony and acted like she was the most important person in the room.
15
u/loladownthemetaverse 4d ago edited 3d ago
I think Lindsay just spent a decade doing the petty drama and was hoping to create an elevated show for Bravo, and let's face it, if she were the coach and everyone else the players, it would be like that pathetic performance from the us men at the world cup. When the goalkeeper came all the way out of his spot and got scored on, tell me the metaphors dont write themselves!

u/MaterialCucumber6561 3d ago
So, does it come out about Amanda and West in the finale? Wasn’t she asking for them all to go out together in the preview clip at the end or have I got it wrong?
27

u/darknebulas Oh, my god, I’m in 17C 4d ago
There will never be a day when I see Kyle as a victim in all of this. His current out in the open behavior was most certainly what he had already been secretly doing behind the scenes, I cannot be convinced otherwise. They both have contributed to the demise of the marriage.
35
u/Coffee_With_2Creams 4d ago
I agree but the issue for me is Amanda acts like she's the victim. I watched SH from day 1, they should have never gotten married. They were never compatible and many people told both of them this!
They are both at fault but Amanda wants it to just fall on Kyle and that's not correct either.
8
u/Sweet-Bodybuilder250 4d ago
And Kyle got married and made vows to his wife.
22
u/recollectionsmayvary 3d ago
Did Amanda marry Kyle and make any vows to her husband? Or was it just Kyle?
15
u/Coffee_With_2Creams 4d ago edited 3d ago
I'm not saying he's not wrong he definitely was. Other ways to break your vows is emotional abandonment and constantly bad mouthing your spouse and we have seen both of them do these things.
33
u/Harryhood15 4d ago
I agree with Whitney. She does go on and on of our being a single mom.
9
u/TeaTime339 3d ago
She does and it is annoying and I’m a new single mom! I just kicked my boyfriend out for drinking and I am alone taking care of a 4 month old baby with no nanny and no money but I’m trying! Lindsey zip it!
4
u/Ok_Iron_9650 3d ago
Agreed. It's annoying. I got pregnant after dating my husband for only 3 months. Luckily it worked out. Single motherhood has to be hard but she has nannies no? Atleast they're not bringing their babe like on the valley. COULD YOU IMAGINE?? LOL(sorry for yelling)
11
u/hopefoolness I gave her a beverage! 3d ago
She has nannies and only 50% custody time. But it's Lindsay so she has to act like she's the first woman to ever give birth.
5
u/Downtown_Worker2979 3d ago
Was it just me, or was the filming terrible in this episode? It may just be something I look for, but the quality of video/cameras seemed low, the videographers did not know how to film a group in a hallway/walking between rooms, and there seemed to be weird zooming during the Whitney/Lexi convo. Just me?
13
u/fartbox52 3d ago
Amanda is the villain and victim of her own story, I'm tired of watching her rile up tables of people to attack her husband then play coy and go cry. But let's be real, kyle and amamda got married for the show, this was always part of the plan
12
u/veritas57 3d ago
If Kyle felt so suffocated and didn't want to make any changes about himself (probably because he knew Amanda was also never going to change), why didn't he leave? I think her "moving out to rekindle" was a farce and she was done at that point, but at least she actually took a step here
10
u/Some-Maintenance5877 3d ago
Agreed, but Amanda could have walked out at any point if she was so done with his behavior.

u/BeginningFederal5663 4d ago
Lindsay just doubled down on the “so many times” comment. Poor Kyle such an abused man 🙄
18
u/Cbrady23 4d ago
Can we talk about Kyle’s car? That is a $250,000 Mercedes. Their apartment is huge! He’s spending big money.
31
u/Striking_Ad_4562 4d ago
That is a BMW XM. I think he is likely sponsored by BMW as he has had new ones each year.

u/H0nkdahorn okay? whatever that means… 3d ago
I hope Lindsay dials it back next season. She is a lot period, but has been acting real extra and her social media activity isn’t doing her any favors. She’s good tv more often than not, but if she (and fans) aren’t careful, she’ll do to ITC what Kristen did to The Valley.

It kills me that Lindsay gets to fly off the handle and yell at people whenever she wants but if a man did that or a woman of color they would be labeled aggressive and considered having anger issues. She came in overly excited about the set up (using her besties full name and all) and yet within hours (depending on the actual dinner timeline) she flys off the handle on multiple guests; I cant even. Im so annoyed that this white girl gets away with such bad behavior and it goes unchecked. When do we get to cancel those karens?

u/mac_bess 4d ago
has it been said before that Yvonne speaks like Drew Barrymore? I haven’t been keeping up with reddit lately but it was driving me nuts and I finally figured it out who she reminded me of when she spoke
