Earlier today, rumors circled that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards had checked out of rehab and was back at home with her sister and co-star Kyle Richards. But according to her rep, she was actually just visited by her sister in the rehabilitation facility.

Kim’s daughter Kimberly, as well as Kyle’s three oldest daughters were part of the visit. ”They were all happy to see each other,” a source said.

The reality star officially sought treatment in December for alcoholism and “other things.” Her substance abuse has been a major plot line on the Bravo show.

Get well soon, Kim!

Real Housewives of Orange County star Alexis Bellino has admitted that she went under the knife for a new nose in October.

RHOOC Alexis Bellino Lashes out at In Touch Weekly

 ”Most people don’t even know I had a nose job,” the 34-year-old mom told the OC Register. “They notice something [new] about me. It’s perked up my face.”

The procedure was performed on Oct. 17 by Dr. Michael Niccole, a local plastic surgeon that Bellino actually works for part-time.

“She asked me if I could make the tip a little more defined and also file down her bump,” Dr. Niccole said, adding that Bellino was also suffering from debilitating “sinus infections.” The surgeon has also given Bellino breast implants and Botox treatments.

Bellino, who earned her fame on the Housewives as the “religious” one, said her husband, Jim Bellino, “loves it.” ”Thank God. I prayed for about a week on that one,” she said.

Sinus infections…..sure…..

Bethenny Frankel, who is most famous for Bravo shows like Real Housewives of New York and Bethenny Ever After, was shopping around a nationally syndicated talk show that failed in developments.

No major stations were interested in the Skinnygirl’s advice-based show, though it was said to be supported by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres. Now, Frankel is seeking a spot on cable television, but so far the search for a home base has been unsuccessful.

Her newest season of Bethenny Ever After has wrapped and will proceed as planned.

I love Bethenny, but I certainly don’t want to take advice from her.

“The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills” star Taylor Armstrong revealed she has been dedicated more and more time of her life to battered women foundations after the tragic death of her husband Russell Armstrong, who committed suicide less than three months ago.

RHOBH Taylor Armstrong Not Dating Matt Nordgren

The 40 year-old and her estranged husband announced their separation in July, and the housewife finally admitted she was a victim of domestic violence in September. Now Taylor just wants to get her life back on track to raise their 5 year-old daughter, Kennedy Armstrong.

“I’ve been taking care of myself the best I can,” confides Taylor to Life & Style. “I’m also looking into projects that can help women. The more I can help heal others, the more I heal myself. It gives me strength.”

Taylor will continue to be an advocate for victims of domestic abuse through her work with 1736 Family Crisis Center. She is currently working on the Fashion for a Cause show and claims she wants to start helping women gain their financial independence.

“The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, Jacqueline Laurita, who recently failed to show up for a RHONJ Reunion, is apparently desperately trying to hide a secret dirty past as an “exotic dancer” in Las Vegas.

‘Real Housewives’ Jacqueline Laurita In Trouble With Bravo?

The 41 year-old was scared that former castmate Danielle Staub would also show up for the reunion to drop the bomb. Jacqueline is prepared to deny everything if confronted with the harsh and painful reality.

Jacqueline Laurita Lashes Out Against Teresa Giudice

“She feared that Danielle Staub would make a surprise appearance and tell all about Jacqueline’s stripping past,” an insider tells In Touch. “She didn’t want to face the truth.”

Jacqueline is “terrified” to be known as the typical single mom who used to be a stripper to put food on the table before she met her husband, Chris Laurita, at a night club. Chris fell head over heels in love and took her off the strippers’ market.

RHONJ Jacqueline Laurita to Daughter – “Move Out!”

“At the time, she was a single mom who needed to dance at a club in order to pay her bills,” an insider says. “She has confirmed her stripper past to multiple friends who are covering up for her — she is telling everyone to deny it!”

How long can Jacqueline keep this dirty secret before it comes back to haunt her? Wouldn’t it be better for herself, her image and her family, if Jac sold the heartbreaking struggling stripper story to some tabloid before she is exposed?

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Melissa Gorga sported a fat suit in the middle of New York City’s Times Square while filming a segment for Entertainment Tonight.

RHONJ Melissa Gorga’s Stripper Past

Gorga, who is fit as can be after 3 children, went undercover to see if people would treat her differently as a plus size woman.

Jersey Shore‘s Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, 23, joined Gorga for the segment, which will air Thursday, and said she looked “sexy.”

Hasn’t this “undercover” stuff been done a thousand times? OVER IT.

Former “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, Dina Manzo, who left the show to protect her personal life and get her own reality show (“Dina’s Party”) on HGTV, tells the whole truth and nothing but the truth about Bravo’s hit show in a special blog post on her official website. Dina also promised this is the last time she will talk about that part of her past.

The 29 year-old housewife claims she had to leave the show after season 2 because of “all of the toxic behavior” and admits she did indeed distance herself from all the housewives. Dina wrote, “It’s a shame this TV show used to be about our lives and now some lives are just about a TV show. That’s not how it should be.”

Jacqueline Laurita Leaving Real Housewives of New Jersey?

Dina really hopes the show can take a higher road and starts portraying these women on a more positive note, showing what they are really capable of and their friendship, which should be much more important than a reality show.

Albert Tiny Manzo Mafia Connection: ‘Real Housewives Of New Jersey’ Reunion

“I say we change this housewives thing around and show the world what we’re really made of!” Dina writes.

“Let’s lift each other up instead of trying to tear one another down. Lets showcase what women are capable of, what I thought this show was going to be back in the day. Running successful businesses, supporting amazing causes, raising incredible children and looking fabulous every step of the way.”

“Unfortunately, not sure what the ratings on that would be, so I doubt that will happen.”

That’s right. No one wants to see successful women be successful and friendly. We would rather watch them discussing irrelevant issues, fighting over some petty stuff and backstabbing their family and friends. That’s what is good for ratings and that’s what “The Real Housewives of…” is all about.

On the feud between her sister Caroline Manzo and Teresa Giudice, Dina wrote:

“If this is all about a joke in a book (and [Teresa] assured me it was) that’s not enough for me to hate the mother of my God daughter and a friend of 15 years,” she writes. “Was it necessary to write that stuff in her book? Probably not but I don’t think it was written with malice either.”

Dina adds: “I feel bad that my relationship with my sister and her family is strained, but I can assure you that one day it will be back to the way it was.”

One day? One day probably after they are done with “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” and no one no longer remembers who they are or who they used to be. Dina’s decision to leave the show was probably one of the smartest things she has ever done in her life, but not taking her sister’s side on this feud might lead to a whole lot more drama in the future.

BRAVO’s longest running Real Housewives series, The Real Housewives of Orange County, will be adding another name to their ever-expanding cast list after the departure of Housewife Peggy Tanous.

Actress/wife of a plastic surgeon (a pairing I like to call a “perfect storm), Heather Dubrow, will be joining the RHOOC cast for the show’s 7th season and hopefully add a breath of fresh air to her increasingly stale fellow Housewives

According to The National Enquirer, who broke the news regarding Dubrow being cast on the hit reality series, insiders are already wondering on which side of the Tamra vs. Gretchen fence she’ll fall.

It’s going to be interesting to see which side Heather chooses – either Gretchen and Alexis’ or Vicki and Tamra… No matter which side she chooses, I’m sure there is going to be fireworks and drama.

A little birdie (okay, it was the National Enquirer…) told me that Heather won “Miss Congeniality” in the 1989 Miss New York State Pageant – so maybe she won’t choose a side at all!

HAHAHAHAHAHAH!  Yeah right.

Gotta love the chatter ’round the old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills water cooler!

Although rumors have been circulating for weeks regarding RHOBH Taylor Armstrong and Most Eligible Dallas star Matt Nordgren cozying up together – a rep for the MED hunk says that’s all it is – a rumor.

The Most Eligible Dallas Official Twitter recently Tweeted (redundant much?),

@MattNordgren and #RealHousewives’@TaylorArmstrong are ‘just friends’

And included a link to an article, in which Nordgren assures his fans that,

He and Armstrong are ‘just friends,’ and that he merely wanted to ‘welcome her to the city’ as she’s part of the Bravo family.

I’m glad this rumor’s proved false.  I mean, it’s only been about two months since Taylor’s husband took his life and even for a reality star, that’d be moving a little fast.

After wife Michaele Salahi walked out on him for Journey guitarist Neal Schon, scorned lover and former Real Housewives of DC star Tareq Salahi has announced that he will be auctioning off his wedding ring and some other personal affects from his broken marriage.

Anything for a quick buck, right Tareq ol’ boy?

A spokesperson for Tareq told Rueters,

Tareq decided to sell these items to get rid of them and help calm his anger management issue… It’ll also help bring closure to his relationship with Michaele.

I guess that sort of makes sense, but why not do what brokenhearted girls have been doing for centuries and just burn all her crap in a massive bonfire in your backyard?

Wait, was that just me?
