Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod with Teddy Mellencamp and camera
Speaker 1: je Edge.
Speaker 2: Hi, guys, welcome to another episode of two Teas in
Speaker 2: a Pod, but today it is not to teas. We
Speaker 2: couldn't really come up with a good acronym, so we
Speaker 2: thought twags instead of twats, I mean, G, T and
Speaker 2: G in a pod. I am here with Gerty from Miami.
Speaker 2: I am so happy to have you here.
Speaker 3: Cheered life to.
Speaker 2: Health, health ish and doing the best that we can
Speaker 2: I have to. I mean, we're going to start the
Speaker 2: podcast mainly just talking about your journey and then we'll
Speaker 2: get into all of the shit talking and that feels like.
Speaker 4: A better flow than shop talking that you know, then.
Speaker 5: Should talk with talk ship whichever way you want to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here, okay, all right, So just to give
Speaker 2: y'all a little backstory, Gertie, you moved to Paris with
Speaker 2: your family at the age of one, and then your
Speaker 2: parents decided to move to Miami. You quickly fell in
Speaker 2: love with everything about Miami and you've been there ever since.
Speaker 3: Ever since. Absolutely, so I am Miami to La die.
Speaker 4: And you met your husband when you were seventeen years.
Speaker 3: Old sixteen seventeen ish, I can't remember it so long ago.
Speaker 3: It was twenty eight years ago.
Speaker 4: Oh shit, I like you were in the same classroom.
Speaker 3: No, never in the same class A really interesting We
Speaker 3: met actually while we were playing volleyball, and.
Speaker 5: I thought he was cute, like on the beach or
Speaker 5: in high school.
Speaker 3: So he was a basketball player. I was always a
Speaker 3: volleyball player. Our coach had the broad idea of recruiting
Speaker 3: basketball players who play volleyball because they were tall. Okay,
Speaker 3: so here comes Russell dragging his feet to the gym,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh my god, this guy's so freaking cute.
Speaker 5: And you knew right away, and you right away.
Speaker 3: But I had a boyfriend, so I'm like, cute for
Speaker 3: day away. And then literally a few years after is
Speaker 3: when I broke up my boyfriend, the whole thing, and
Speaker 3: we get together and YadA, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 4: And the reason I bring him up is because a
Speaker 4: lot of when you were showing your journey.
Speaker 2: Yeah with first and foremost, you are cancer free at
Speaker 2: this point in time.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Jesus.
Speaker 2: I think thank you like it's I'm so like watching
Speaker 2: your story made me so emotional, but also made me
Speaker 2: think about your support system with your husband and things
Speaker 2: that kind of I paralleled to myself, like, did you
Speaker 2: when you found out you had cancer, did.
Speaker 4: You have life insurance?
Speaker 2: Of course?
Speaker 4: See I didn't, girl, and I can't get it.
Speaker 3: Before you get a burken get yourself life insurance, baby.
Speaker 4: Damn it. I should have told my husband.
Speaker 3: You See that is so important and so right now
Speaker 3: I literally tell people, do you have insurance, just basic insurance,
Speaker 3: make sure you have cancer in it, because one in
Speaker 3: three people, unfortunately, are gonna get cancer, and when in
Speaker 3: eight will have breast cancer. It's intense, this whole thing.
Speaker 2: And until it directly affects who you really don't know you.
Speaker 2: Of course, it's something that your heart always goes out
Speaker 2: to somebody else that's struggling with it. But unless it
Speaker 2: directly affects your family, you don't know those things. So
Speaker 2: that is my first big tip. But also when you
Speaker 2: and your husband started having these conversations and times were
Speaker 2: getting scary for.
Speaker 4: You, did you talk about what would happen if you
Speaker 4: were to pass?
Speaker 5: Never?
Speaker 3: Never talked about it. I don't know why, because I
Speaker 3: knew I was gonna make it. And the thing about
Speaker 3: it is that people are like, oh, she only has
Speaker 3: stage one it's no big deal, okay. And it was
Speaker 3: stage one B by the way, and I had two
Speaker 3: types of cancers. It was one that was invasive and
Speaker 3: then a dcis which is not invasive. And so the
Speaker 3: thing is that I don't even want to talk about
Speaker 3: the future impossibilities. But cancer doesn't do what you wanted
Speaker 3: to do. You can come back, it cannot, and when
Speaker 3: it comes back, you could be more aggressive. The one
Speaker 3: B stage was fine. It's just that what your reaction
Speaker 3: is to chemo and everything in between, everything is a
Speaker 3: life game changer. Because I had two blood cloths on
Speaker 3: my veins from the first chemo round block clots, and
Speaker 3: you're talking about that could have died easy to eat
Speaker 3: like a seconds. I was rushed into the emergency room
Speaker 3: the first day of my chemo because I stopped breathing.
Speaker 3: I was like literally like sitting here, and Russell was like,
Speaker 3: let me get a nurse because you don't know. Cancer
Speaker 3: is not a perfect science or a perfect mathematical equation.
Speaker 3: It could do whatever it wants and it has a
Speaker 3: lot of variables.
Speaker 2: And something that I just noticed the second that you
Speaker 2: started talking about what stage your cancer was, I heard
Speaker 2: your tone change in your voice. And I think it's
Speaker 2: because in the world of social media or when you're
Speaker 2: on a platform like this, I've even you know, gotten it,
Speaker 2: and I didn't, and now I'm.
Speaker 3: Going to do it.
Speaker 2: I'm like, and I didn't even have breast cancer. I
Speaker 2: just had melanoma. You start to justify, don't say just
Speaker 2: I know but that, but we I know it's because
Speaker 2: people come at you.
Speaker 3: People want you to say, no, you're okay, stop making
Speaker 3: a big deal. Don't make it about you. You're weaponizing it.
Speaker 3: My thing right now is about people saying I weaponized it. Okay,
Speaker 3: you want you want to you want me to say
Speaker 3: that I weaponized it. Guess what, I saved more than
Speaker 3: four hundred fucking lives by people, by people, not right.
Speaker 3: These are the people who wrote to me and said, Gertie,
Speaker 3: I never wanted to even go get checked, but because
Speaker 3: I saw your story, I went I did have it,
Speaker 3: and now I'm on treatment because of you. You saved
Speaker 3: my life. So call it whatever you want, weaponizing it,
Speaker 3: whatever it is. No, that's not what happened. But if
Speaker 3: it makes you sleep at night, okay, I weaponized cancer.
Speaker 2: So if we're gonna if we're gonna lean into the
Speaker 2: weaponized weaponization of it.
Speaker 4: Why did you tell Larsa first?
Speaker 3: Larca was not the first person in the group to know.
Speaker 3: She was the fourth person. And I say this at
Speaker 3: the luncheon. So what happened was I came to the
Speaker 3: luncheon with Larsa to talk about our issues as friends.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you a little exclusive, which is that
Speaker 3: her and I, via text message already had talked about
Speaker 3: why I called her fake. However, when we filmed, she
Speaker 3: began to rehatch that question again, and that's how the
Speaker 3: whole season began. Listen, my health is my story, it's
Speaker 3: my life. It's not a storyline. It got mixed into
Speaker 3: a storyline by default, I guess, and that's how it
Speaker 3: all came out.
Speaker 5: It's emotional. Cancer is emotional.
Speaker 3: You know that probably you don't know what you're gonna
Speaker 3: do at what time because it's a rollercoaster and it's
Speaker 3: an emotional emotional wavelength. And so we're talking about our
Speaker 3: issues and all of a sudden, she's like, don't start crying.
Speaker 5: You better not start crying.
Speaker 2: And that was like, wait, one, don't tell me what
Speaker 2: to do, thank you, And two, you don't know what
Speaker 2: I'm going through right now.
Speaker 5: Thank you, so you don't put me in a box.
Speaker 3: And one thing with me, my trigger is when people
Speaker 3: try to put me in a box. When I came
Speaker 3: to this country, it was like, she's too tall, she's
Speaker 3: what is she wearing? Oh what language is that? We
Speaker 3: don't understand you. What is your last what is your name?
Speaker 3: I don't understand how to say that. It was always
Speaker 3: trying to like make it easier for me to understand
Speaker 3: who you are. No, I'm not anymore.
Speaker 5: This is who I am. Get on fucking board or not.
Speaker 5: And that's it.
Speaker 2: And I think what I when I noticed watching this
Speaker 2: is in that moment that you told Larsa.
Speaker 4: Instead of her being able to.
Speaker 2: Have that feeling of this is what Gertie's going through,
Speaker 2: she immediately went to, oh my gosh, we filmed a
Speaker 2: scene where we have been fighting, and now she's bringing
Speaker 2: this up so I will look bad.
Speaker 4: And that's and that is where the disconnect.
Speaker 2: Came, because you guys haven't actually been able to say
Speaker 2: that because it's breaking forth wall. But regardless of how
Speaker 2: it played out, that was what was happening. And I
Speaker 2: don't think that Larsa misses the capacity of knowing how
Speaker 2: to respond if somebody has cancer.
Speaker 4: But in that moment, she thought, sure, I'm being produced.
Speaker 5: And this sure one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: It was an intense scene and we were back at it,
Speaker 3: back and forth for thirty minutes, talking about our friendship,
Speaker 3: and then it became a whole thing about like stop,
Speaker 3: just like give me a safe space because right now
Speaker 3: is this is a lot going at me and it
Speaker 3: wasn't going the way it was supposed to that un
Speaker 3: she was supposed to be us coming together and figuring
Speaker 3: out a way to move forward. But the minute she says,
Speaker 3: you're not gonna start crying, are you? And you and
Speaker 3: I cannot control what's going on in my head.
Speaker 2: It's like when someone tells me relax, yeah, Like who
Speaker 2: the fuck are you?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like that's the worst.
Speaker 3: So it was like, okay, this is going into a
Speaker 3: whole different zone and it just kind of snowballed. And
Speaker 3: then at the end of the conversation it's like I'm
Speaker 3: going through cancer. I have cancer.
Speaker 5: And then he was like, well, don't put this on me.
Speaker 5: It's like, girl, it's.
Speaker 4: Not about you, and how do you know?
Speaker 5: And all the it went bad and I really felt bad.
Speaker 3: For her, and that's why you see me stop and
Speaker 3: looking at her like, okay, compose yourself, Laursa, like you
Speaker 3: have something else that you may want to.
Speaker 5: Say, like I'm not better.
Speaker 4: I'm literally to just.
Speaker 3: Say nothing to say, taken aback. But it went really south.
Speaker 3: The good news is that you know at the reunion
Speaker 3: that's movementlet's fast forward. You see the opportunity for it
Speaker 3: to maybe get better in the future. So we'll have
Speaker 3: to see what happens.
Speaker 2: Do you What I noticed at the reunion is what
Speaker 2: you just said pretty much all the other women just
Speaker 2: said was conversations that are happening off camera with Larsa.
Speaker 2: And for me as a viewer, now that is very
Speaker 2: hard for me because I don't understand how things happened.
Speaker 2: If they're happening off camera, Is that something that she's
Speaker 2: done from the beginning since you met her, Like, there's
Speaker 2: that in terms of what like reaching out and having
Speaker 2: conversations so that then things will play out the way
Speaker 2: that she wants it to do.
Speaker 4: When you guys are on cameras, you.
Speaker 3: Know, I don't have righty other capacity to think about
Speaker 3: little my new details and so forth.
Speaker 5: One thing I will say for the cast is that.
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people said, you know, oh
Speaker 3: the girls are you know, they're not good friends, Curty,
Speaker 3: they weren't there for you.
Speaker 5: No, that's not true at all.
Speaker 3: Marysol and Alexia called me four times a week or
Speaker 3: texted me four times a week.
Speaker 5: Kiki. All the girls came through. To be honest.
Speaker 3: The only two that I felt were not good friends
Speaker 3: during the worst time of my life.
Speaker 5: Is was Lisa and Larsa.
Speaker 3: And I know they're best friends, but I've wanted more
Speaker 3: for Lisa to kind of give me the listening ear
Speaker 3: to say, let me hear you out, versus being the
Speaker 3: spokesperson for Larsa and be like.
Speaker 5: She didn't mean it.
Speaker 3: She felt really bad for me.
Speaker 5: To have to kind of.
Speaker 3: Poor Larsa. Yeah, I think it's trending to everyone's like
Speaker 3: stop it, mascot. I've been tagged of so many and
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, we don't want this to go oh
Speaker 3: high green.
Speaker 5: Way, Like I'm not trying to market that at all.
Speaker 3: So you know, at the time, I just felt like
Speaker 3: it was just a lot of like tap dancing for
Speaker 3: Larsa and I'm like, stand down, soldier, just stop.
Speaker 5: Just be there from me. For once.
Speaker 2: Having interviewed a lot of women on a lot of
Speaker 2: different franchises, there's definitely the ones that are so wrapped
Speaker 2: up in their self and their image that they're unable
Speaker 2: to even listen or process with the other persons saying
Speaker 2: because they're.
Speaker 3: Be guilty of that too. Maybe I think we all
Speaker 3: must in some capacity.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a reason all of us were on
Speaker 2: the show at one point right now, right, But do
Speaker 2: you think that your show there is a big divide
Speaker 2: or everybody's on an equal playing field on that way.
Speaker 3: They used to be a big divide in a sense
Speaker 3: of OG's versus newbies. For sure, that has crumbled, thank god,
Speaker 3: And everyone's on the same playing field for sure. I'm
Speaker 3: just one of these people that I just wanted to
Speaker 3: be honest and truthful, just no bullshit. Please, let's not
Speaker 3: go to do Lulu Land. I don't want to go.
Speaker 3: I can't, Okay. So that's why at the reunion I
Speaker 3: just kept pushing the envelope, like Nicole speak up about
Speaker 3: what happened on that boat during Alexi's wedding and that
Speaker 3: whole thing, because people like to insinuate, well I should,
Speaker 3: and I could say just say if you don't do this,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do that. Let's let's not play games and
Speaker 3: do word jargon. You know, this show is about truth.
Speaker 3: This is being about organic and this is a show
Speaker 3: about calling each other out of the bs. And when
Speaker 3: people don't do that because they're scared of that's where.
Speaker 5: The issues are.
Speaker 3: So I'm looking for an organic, you know, friendship with
Speaker 3: everyone and the truth will set you free. And that's
Speaker 3: what I was trying to say, like like, please, let's
Speaker 3: start the lies. Yeah, and you know, let's be real.
Speaker 2: Well, I get calls all the time from girls that
Speaker 2: live in Beverly Hills and they're like, oh, they're asking
Speaker 2: me to go on the season or you know, whether
Speaker 2: it's true or not true. My advice is always the same.
Speaker 2: If you have a skeleton in your closet that you're
Speaker 2: not wanting for it to come out on camera, do
Speaker 2: not do the show this. But if you're willing to
Speaker 2: own everything that's happened in your life, good or bad,
Speaker 2: it can go.
Speaker 3: But surprised, I mean people are always like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: I didn't think that was going to come out.
Speaker 5: Well, of course it is, and that's what it is.
Speaker 5: I mean me to be.
Speaker 3: I'm very honest, whatever I have, you know, hidden, has
Speaker 3: already come to the life, which is nothing. And Russell,
Speaker 3: I mean, the purest human being in the world. So
Speaker 3: it's like we've been together for twenty eight years and
Speaker 3: we're just telling a simple story of two people who
Speaker 3: love each other, who have two boys, and just going
Speaker 3: through life as it is.
Speaker 2: Well, I also related to when you were I can't
Speaker 2: even remember if it was this year or last year,
Speaker 2: but it was when Russell was telling you that you
Speaker 2: weren't as present as you know, maybe he would want
Speaker 2: you to be, whether it's with the boys or with him.
Speaker 4: And I was like, I.
Speaker 2: Catch myself doing the same thing, and so does my husband.
Speaker 2: Whenever one of us wants to connect to the other one,
Speaker 2: that's like yep, yep, and so it's like getting on
Speaker 2: the same page, Like no, we're all going to connect
Speaker 2: at the same time together.
Speaker 3: To be honest, Russell really was a lifesaver for me
Speaker 3: because he helped me scale back all the work that
Speaker 3: I was doing, and in a sick way, it really
Speaker 3: kind of prepped me to be ready for the cancer diagnosis.
Speaker 3: Imagine if I had fifteen freaking weddings booked while I was.
Speaker 3: I couldn't have.
Speaker 4: Even imagined and you would have tried to do it
Speaker 4: because I'm.
Speaker 3: A freaking corn I'm crazy so and a type personality.
Speaker 3: So Russell honestly is he knows me so well. We
Speaker 3: are telepathically communicating with each other right now. Literally, I'll
Speaker 3: be like, oh shit, we need to buy the tickets
Speaker 3: for Universal Studio, and then I'll text him, Hey, we
Speaker 3: need to done.
Speaker 5: I already did it this morning.
Speaker 3: Grocery list. Wait we needed to Oh, I already get
Speaker 3: the coconuts. And I'm like, we don't communicate, but we
Speaker 3: communicate at all times. That's how like this we are soulmates.
Speaker 4: Your partners and like true partners and friends.
Speaker 2: And you can see that, and that's that's something that
Speaker 2: can't you watch a bunch of couples, but that's something
Speaker 2: that can't be faked.
Speaker 3: You know, you cannot be fake. And he will never
Speaker 3: be on board for any production, trust me.
Speaker 2: I mean, and whether it's asking what flavor gatorade you
Speaker 2: wanted recovery.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, he already knows that he knows all my
Speaker 3: little crazy you know, anal retentive shit. I'm a crazy person.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm a perfectionist, and it's like every day
Speaker 3: I'm like stop, stop, you can, don't move the bottle,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, it's a struggle, and then I end
Speaker 3: up like moving it because I have to do it.
Speaker 2: I know it's it's it's yeah type a CD.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you.
Speaker 2: And then before we you know, before we move on
Speaker 2: from I hate to even say, before we move on
Speaker 2: from cancer, what advice do you give to any essentially
Speaker 2: any woman out there who thinks this would never happen
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 3: I mean it's a general I think advice, which is
Speaker 3: to start being selfish, and honestly, I think that's what
Speaker 3: may have gotten me sick, the stress, that load, the
Speaker 3: just all that shit. And then I think that we women,
Speaker 3: we always try to humble ourself down to like someone
Speaker 3: says we're pretty. No, no, no, no, I'm not. Oh
Speaker 3: I'm so ugit today. No say thank you, you know,
Speaker 3: like just start waking up in the morning before you
Speaker 3: go and make eggs for the kids. Say you know,
Speaker 3: do your men, trug take care of yourself because if
Speaker 3: we're not okay, nothing else around us can be. And
Speaker 3: that's really one thing that I'm learning and struggling to
Speaker 3: do but I try to take care of me first
Speaker 3: every single day now.
Speaker 5: So it's it's my new stick.
Speaker 2: And you find out what it is that you like
Speaker 2: and what makes you happy and then create a habit
Speaker 2: of doing it.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's the only way that.
Speaker 3: We all know.
Speaker 5: Is another one.
Speaker 4: Oh, I always say that. I'll say, it's not about
Speaker 4: the power of yes, it's the power of.
Speaker 5: Power of no. And people we respect you for it.
Speaker 3: Oh, Gertie, we would be so amazing if you could
Speaker 3: thank you no, thank you, thank you no, thank you No.
Speaker 2: Not gonna work for me. Well, I guess before the drama,
Speaker 2: I want to understand a little bit more about your
Speaker 2: relationship with doctor Nicole. Were you guys hang out friends
Speaker 2: before the show?
Speaker 4: How did y'all meet?
Speaker 3: It is the funniest thing ever. I have pictures of
Speaker 3: doctor Nicole at events that I was at in the
Speaker 3: background or in the forefront, whatever it was, And before
Speaker 3: her and I even had lunch, it was like I
Speaker 3: saw this picture and then there was this girl right
Speaker 3: behind I was getting It was a celebration of like
Speaker 3: this magazine release, and I was in the magazine, so
Speaker 3: it was a feature party and she was in this
Speaker 3: photo and I'm like, oh my god, who's that girl?
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, we have lunch. This
Speaker 3: is before filming. We have lunch through mutual friends, and
Speaker 3: then I'm talking talking and we talk about events and I'm like,
Speaker 3: you're that girl, and that was freaking crazy. Again, everything
Speaker 3: in life happens for a reason. Then she tells me
Speaker 3: about Alexia, who I knew Alexia post pre filming, and
Speaker 3: so connection connected dots connected dots, and then the show
Speaker 3: happens and then we're like, oh my god. And it
Speaker 3: was kind of like right to die from day one
Speaker 3: and never wavered for anything. And we were very smart girls,
Speaker 3: Nicole and I yeah, no, no, no.
Speaker 5: Very smart girls.
Speaker 3: And so that whole I see you, you see me
Speaker 3: type of thing and the way we see the world
Speaker 3: and business and everything in between. It's an unstoppable fucking
Speaker 3: train and good shit is happening soon and just wait
Speaker 3: for it.
Speaker 2: Well, I could I could feel that you had an
Speaker 2: authentic friendship when it was happening at that final party
Speaker 2: where Lisa was kind of running after you to talk.
Speaker 4: I stand out, yeah, and Nicole is like, no, listen,
Speaker 4: she needs a break.
Speaker 2: This is her personality type and me and Tamar talk
Speaker 2: about this all the time because Tamar is similar to you. Yes,
Speaker 2: she is where she'll and then she gets over it
Speaker 2: where I'm like, no, no, we fix this right now.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 4: I can't. I can't let things like lingeringer.
Speaker 2: I can't. I cannot do it. I need it immediately.
Speaker 2: So it's definitely but that's interesting to see. And I
Speaker 2: don't think in that moment Lisa was trying. I think
Speaker 2: that's just out of.
Speaker 3: The wrong perspective, you know what I mean. It's like,
Speaker 3: I'm not the offender, so so why are you You're.
Speaker 5: Following me around?
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 5: So it was really kind of interesting.
Speaker 3: But yeah, Nicole stepped in the way she knows how
Speaker 3: like hey, and you know, honestly, I feel like the
Speaker 3: viewers still haven't seen our connection on screen yet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because we have not seen you guys having fun together.
Speaker 3: Wow, I noticed that, right, So, I mean, obviously the
Speaker 3: future is bright and hopefully next season, you know, we'll
Speaker 3: be able to share more of that friendship. Just like
Speaker 3: me and Kiki, for example.
Speaker 4: We're very Oh we just had her on.
Speaker 3: I love her, But like you see, how like on
Speaker 3: screen you don't see it, so they see a lot
Speaker 3: of US restaurants and whatever. We hang around off camera
Speaker 3: all the time so people know we're crows. But like,
Speaker 3: hopefully he shows on screen soon.
Speaker 4: Do you think they're going to make Kiki a housewife?
Speaker 5: I hope, I hope they do.
Speaker 4: Do you think Adriana is gone?
Speaker 3: Why?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I just have the spot.
Speaker 3: No, I don't. I mean, Adriana is a necessity. I
Speaker 3: think she is so quirky and she said it like
Speaker 3: it is, and I mean, did you watch the reunion
Speaker 3: in her poems?
Speaker 5: I mean, like like what, I just die?
Speaker 2: It was rough for me because I wouldn't mind all
Speaker 2: the props if I felt legitimate friendships between her and
Speaker 2: everybody else.
Speaker 4: But I don't feel it.
Speaker 2: Really, No, then I need to see Adrian because right
Speaker 2: now what we're seeing is Adriana Judge Julia. Yeah, you're
Speaker 2: seeing her with Julia, which it doesn't you know, you
Speaker 2: see them making jam or whatever, but like there or
Speaker 2: we see her performing and you guys going there and
Speaker 2: it seems like.
Speaker 4: You guys are going there begrudgingly.
Speaker 3: No, like they're just as a character.
Speaker 5: Man. She is so fun to be around.
Speaker 3: She's very resentful sometimes when things you know happen and
Speaker 3: so forth, and I can I always try to give
Speaker 3: her like an ear because she really is in the
Speaker 3: feelings about a lot of things. She's very hurt. I
Speaker 3: think with the relationship that they all had between Mary, Saul,
Speaker 3: Alexia and herself and so that breakage and her being out,
Speaker 3: you know, outcasted, I think she still holds that deer
Speaker 3: and that's where you see her continue to come for
Speaker 3: alexas she just wants attention. She's like the kid who stump.
Speaker 2: But does she actually care about the friendship being done
Speaker 2: or does she want to be on the show.
Speaker 3: They've been friends for over thirteen years, if I can't remember,
Speaker 3: they've been friends forever before the show. So I think
Speaker 3: that there's just a lot of reaction to the hurt
Speaker 3: and pain, and some people react in such a manner
Speaker 3: like Adriana, so you know.
Speaker 2: But I think also we have to be friends can
Speaker 2: be used loosely like who actually hangs out.
Speaker 3: They were at her wedding. There were bridesmaids at her
Speaker 3: wedding on camera, it wasn't camera.
Speaker 4: That's the difference.
Speaker 2: Kyle was in Camille's wedding for Pete's sakes.
Speaker 3: Okay, okayche touche. However you do see Mary so also say, listen,
Speaker 3: we've been friends forever. Da da da dada. So they're
Speaker 3: all saying the same song. Whether it's for camera or not,
Speaker 3: that's on them. But to me, I do believe there
Speaker 3: is a love there. There's a hurt there, and that's
Speaker 3: the reason why you see all of this uh mess there.
Speaker 2: And then I had Marisol and Alexia on the pod,
Speaker 2: but I'm pretty sure Marisol said or Marisol alluded, and
Speaker 2: then Alexia spoke for Marisol that doctor Nicole is the
Speaker 2: most inauthentic of the group.
Speaker 4: That's the reason is we could.
Speaker 3: I could. I've shared so much on camera and one
Speaker 3: third of it made it so, you know, so it's
Speaker 3: not up to us at the end of the day.
Speaker 3: To be honest, Nicole, I know so much about her.
Speaker 3: Her mother's on camera, her father's on camera, her kid,
Speaker 3: her husband, she's pregnant her, I mean, what else?
Speaker 4: Yeah, to share her job like everything?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and again her job can't be because
Speaker 3: it's definitely so you see the FaceTime she's in her
Speaker 3: scrubs and so forth, and.
Speaker 5: She she talks truth to power.
Speaker 3: In a sense, I think she's like the person who's like, hey, guys,
Speaker 3: let's try to do this and try to be a
Speaker 3: positive force in the group. At the reunion, I think
Speaker 3: she really helped to sway, you know, the group into
Speaker 3: a positive vibe in a sense.
Speaker 5: So I don't know, but.
Speaker 4: She seems to me like she's the what she's like,
Speaker 4: not the mediator of the group, but she's a voice
Speaker 4: of reason.
Speaker 5: What's a reason? A lot of times she is.
Speaker 3: But you know, there's something there between her and Alexia,
Speaker 3: and I think that hopefully I have hope for them
Speaker 3: that they're gonna come together and finally see each other
Speaker 3: because they're very similar in many ways, and so I
Speaker 3: don't know, like even when we travel on the airport,
Speaker 3: they're both coming like a full white outfit, like they
Speaker 3: have the same luggage. I'm like, shit, you guys, that
Speaker 3: should be best friends by that, you know, But but do.
Speaker 2: You think that's the case of like two alphas that
Speaker 2: just can't.
Speaker 5: Could be for sure?
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, this whole Barbie, who's the Barbie
Speaker 3: of them all that I can't me? Or Mary around
Speaker 3: the wall, who's the Barbie you have them all?
Speaker 5: I don't know, girl, I don't know anymore.
Speaker 3: Shit, I have no idea, but we could have two
Speaker 3: barbies about there's lots of barbies.
Speaker 4: There is lots of barbies. And then we got to
Speaker 4: get a little bit more. But we got to get
Speaker 4: back into Larsa. Okay, well first we got to get
Speaker 4: into Marcus.
Speaker 5: Okay, let's do it.
Speaker 2: Marcus saying that he would do anything to be on
Speaker 2: that couch right now, that was a lie.
Speaker 4: I mean a lot.
Speaker 3: If I was slap Russell, I'll be like, what the
Speaker 3: fuck are you doing? Like all this here?
Speaker 2: Honestly, I was expecting all the husbands to come out
Speaker 2: and sit behind you guys, because why are they there? Russell?
Speaker 3: We never I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't think if he was brought into the drama
Speaker 4: and some like.
Speaker 2: On some franchises they will have and a lot of
Speaker 2: other franchises, Jersey often to Atlanta Listen, Russell didn't sign
Speaker 2: the contract to be on this show.
Speaker 3: Russell is a casualty to this.
Speaker 5: You know, he's he's been.
Speaker 3: Dragged by the collar, you know, but he's here from
Speaker 3: me and he is my you know, he's my soul
Speaker 3: and he's part of my story. So naturally, he's on
Speaker 3: because of me, and obviously last season more than ever
Speaker 3: because of the cancer.
Speaker 5: He's my caretaker.
Speaker 3: But you know what, honestly, never would he ever be
Speaker 3: on stage talking back with women, talking about women like that.
Speaker 3: One incident with Larsa at the last episode, it was
Speaker 3: an inevitable because we're trying to get away from the
Speaker 3: situation and he's you know, when she kept going on,
Speaker 3: He's like, just be respectful, like chill, like enough and
Speaker 3: try to.
Speaker 5: Pull me out of there. So that was his bit.
Speaker 5: He didn't like it. He didn't like to be involved
Speaker 5: in that in that sense. But you know, but he.
Speaker 4: Wasn't necessarily coming for He was just trying to.
Speaker 3: No, he wasn't trying to be like, let me be
Speaker 3: in the.
Speaker 4: He was trying to diffuse the situation.
Speaker 2: I think there's a difference between diffusing and adding like
Speaker 2: whatever to the fire or whatever.
Speaker 3: I mean, we have nine housewives at this point, so
Speaker 3: we have enough. We don't need another couch member. We're good.
Speaker 4: But why were him and Jody there? Are you guys
Speaker 4: allowed to bring whoever you want to your reunion?
Speaker 3: We are I mean my lamb and nothing but my glamb,
Speaker 3: So help me God.
Speaker 2: And I would like to give you a little kudos today.
Speaker 2: You're one of the first housewives to arrive on.
Speaker 4: Time and without an entire team with you.
Speaker 3: I am a grown ass woman, okay, and I mean listen,
Speaker 3: I'm a producer in my home, own head, but by
Speaker 3: producing events, so I already know get this done, do
Speaker 3: that be there?
Speaker 5: Ba ba ba done? No, no big to dos here.
Speaker 2: So I appreciated that because I was sometime to me, Yeah,
Speaker 2: good job, good job.
Speaker 4: I was like, hold on, where's her?
Speaker 3: To the team?
Speaker 2: I was like waiting for forty two people walking behind you.
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, here it goes again.
Speaker 5: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: No, But listen, I mean I think that first of all,
Speaker 3: I'm more of a personality than most people think or
Speaker 3: see me yet. So like I'm there's a lot of
Speaker 3: this onion, a lot of layers, and it just got started.
Speaker 2: Well, you're naturally very high energy, which I now I
Speaker 2: have to force myself to be high energy.
Speaker 5: It feels like it don't even need coffee.
Speaker 3: Hello, where are we? What are we doing today? My
Speaker 3: kids are like ship like, they're like freaked out. My
Speaker 3: oldest son he's like, looks at me and he gives me,
Speaker 3: this stare like, and I'm like too.
Speaker 4: Much, well because keeping it real.
Speaker 2: Sometimes watching it, I'm like, oh gosh, I thought you
Speaker 2: were putting on a show a little bit.
Speaker 3: I swear to God this is how I am. And
Speaker 3: then even by the way I speak right, so people
Speaker 3: are like, why don't you use these big words and
Speaker 3: so forth. Girl. When I was in France we're talking
Speaker 3: about nineteen eighty seven, the way I learned English was
Speaker 3: in a cassette and he was like the English in English, literally,
Speaker 3: how do you do? Comota levu? How do you do?
Speaker 3: This is me? How do you do? I'm very well,
Speaker 3: thank you. So I literally came to America in Miami
Speaker 3: in nineteen eighty seven, literally wearing freaking like raids or
Speaker 3: church dress because my father was a pastor, looking crazy
Speaker 3: like a giraffe. I was age nine, Hey, hey, hey,
Speaker 3: what's up?
Speaker 5: What's up?
Speaker 3: What is up?
Speaker 5: What is up? Oh?
Speaker 3: How are you? I'm very well, thank you?
Speaker 5: A fucking loser.
Speaker 3: So you have to understand that my mind is like
Speaker 3: I'm being I was traumatized at nine, and now it's
Speaker 3: hard for me to pull back all these like words
Speaker 3: and so forth. So it's not like, oh, I'm trying
Speaker 3: to be like fancy or bougie. I swear to God
Speaker 3: is learning parents fucked up? And the English version of
Speaker 3: English versus the American version of English. So I'm like,
Speaker 3: such a loser.
Speaker 6: You know what?
Speaker 4: It is me?
Speaker 5: It is me, and I am okay, you know what now?
Speaker 2: I really you've made me laugh multiple times and it's
Speaker 2: pretty hard to do so.
Speaker 5: And then the facial expressions, that's another thing. Literally, no,
Speaker 5: you're like, and I don't give it.
Speaker 3: That's how I am.
Speaker 5: I'm like this, wait.
Speaker 3: That you tell me, Gertie stop doing verbal confirmation, so
Speaker 3: like when you're speaking of like, oh really, uh huh
Speaker 3: and apparently like you sucking up our scenes girl, so
Speaker 3: shut the fuck up and let them speak, and then
Speaker 3: you answer it. And I'm like, oh, sorry, because I
Speaker 3: like when people abnomlinge me when I sentence by sentence,
Speaker 3: let me know you're listening girls, And they were like.
Speaker 2: No, bitch, just well this is what Tamora does to me, Okay,
Speaker 2: so start talking for a second.
Speaker 3: So anyway, yesterday I was like, wait, I have a
Speaker 3: best friend that does that, and I'm like, what the
Speaker 3: hell are you doing?
Speaker 4: I'm like, why are you I'm like, why are you
Speaker 4: moving your mouth? Or me like, do you think I'm
Speaker 4: gonna say what you're gonna say?
Speaker 7: Like she's like, I have a best friend that literally
Speaker 7: is with me going like this, and I'm like, is
Speaker 7: this a new game show that we're doing like articulately
Speaker 7: by not no sound, but I mean it.
Speaker 2: When we're together, it's so much worse than when we're
Speaker 2: in the zoom because she'll be like a lot of.
Speaker 3: People do that.
Speaker 5: You, Oh, I have a loss suit of mask, like
Speaker 5: this is that's annoying.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm now kind to the point where I like,
Speaker 2: I'm like, don't look at her mouth, because then.
Speaker 3: I feel like everybody's best friend, Like you're you and
Speaker 3: are best friends you and kind of best friends.
Speaker 5: Right, here's the thing.
Speaker 4: I don't like many people, and I do like they're
Speaker 4: my people.
Speaker 3: I love it and me too. I think I like,
Speaker 3: I like a lot of people, but I'm not for everyone.
Speaker 3: So you know, what big mistake if you don't give
Speaker 3: me a chance. You know a lot of people are like,
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, it's too much. What does that mean
Speaker 3: she's too much? What does that mean that you're not enough?
Speaker 3: Or what's happening.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it just for me. I have to
Speaker 2: feel like a genuine connection. I can force the connection
Speaker 2: if I'm being paid.
Speaker 5: Here, paid partnership.
Speaker 3: But to you, bye shradio, I love it, that's truthful.
Speaker 5: I like that.
Speaker 2: But I do when there is an actual person that
Speaker 2: I really connect with, I will I ride.
Speaker 4: Or die for them.
Speaker 5: I'm not that too.
Speaker 4: Like you are to a fault, to a fault to
Speaker 4: the point.
Speaker 6: Where they'll be like you're doing someone says dirty work,
Speaker 6: You're a fault.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I binge on Beverly Hills recently. Actually, and I
Speaker 3: thought that you were a very important piece of the
Speaker 3: puzzle in many revelations, big big moments really honestly, so
Speaker 3: could I see you, whether people like it or not,
Speaker 3: very important in revealing a lot of bullshit or truth,
Speaker 3: so whatever it was in those particular seasons.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3: That's why you're sitting right here, because you and you
Speaker 3: observe it and you call it out. Yeah, And not
Speaker 3: everybody likes to be called out.
Speaker 4: Not everybody likes to be called out.
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of being called out, do you know the

Speaker 2: looks like a vagina, but I don't know the name.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's not vagina.

Speaker 2: Bowl breakup.
Speaker 3: Oh, I was busy doing a partnership during that time
Speaker 3: that I had to post simultaneously as a breakup was happening.
Speaker 3: I felt like the breakup was as as short as
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl, you know, halftime show, and they were
Speaker 3: back together by the time you knew it, So you
Speaker 3: know it was a misunderstanding and had a breakup.
Speaker 5: That's what I call it.
Speaker 3: How we're back together right away.
Speaker 2: Have you and your husband throughout these past twenty eight
Speaker 2: years ever broken up?
Speaker 5: No, we don't believe in the d world.
Speaker 3: We don't throw it out like bitch you said for thickness,
Speaker 3: your sickness, and in help you said for good or bad,
Speaker 3: let's ride we ride a dog, you know.
Speaker 5: So I don't believe in that at all.
Speaker 3: We argue, of course all the time, but like there
Speaker 3: is no threats of any action happening except for action happening.
Speaker 4: Nay, are you having How many times are you having?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 3: Girl, let me give you some tea. I just had
Speaker 3: it hysurrected me two weeks ago, so I'm down for

Speaker 2: I were like, well, this is the story of my life,
Speaker 2: saying things that ultimately get me in some kind of trouble.
Speaker 3: It's fine.
Speaker 2: We already talked about Adriana, we talked about Kiki.
Speaker 4: We want her to be full time.
Speaker 2: Oh also, could you maybe tell me because I said
Speaker 2: I was going to figure out in twenty four hours,
Speaker 2: but I didn't.
Speaker 4: Who is dating my guess?
Speaker 2: Oh no, you're not gonna have to share this, But
Speaker 2: can you at least confirm or deny?
Speaker 3: Is he a plastic surgeon? I can't confirm or deny?
Speaker 3: Next question?
Speaker 4: But Teddy is a mind reader.
Speaker 3: Teddy's a mind reader. I knew that Teddy's a mind reader.
Speaker 3: So what does that mean?
Speaker 5: No, you knew? What are you talking about?
Speaker 4: That he is a plastic service?
Speaker 3: I didn't know he's not. I don't know anything.
Speaker 4: Okay, you're not a good liarer, I right, go up
Speaker 4: and down?
Speaker 5: Do they but down?
Speaker 3: Because I didn't get no? Both dogs of fillners. Hello,
Speaker 3: can you do it?
Speaker 5: Let's do it?
Speaker 2: Done for the first time and not on her time ever,
Speaker 2: like the first time in the year.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's time.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I can't confirm or deny, but I
Speaker 3: think that she's happy currently and you know what, she
Speaker 3: likes it.
Speaker 5: I fucking love it.
Speaker 4: I know. I want to see more of her. I
Speaker 4: want to see the kids. I want to see your
Speaker 4: relationship with her mom. I want to see all of that.
Speaker 3: She's got an eighteen year old son. She's got an
Speaker 3: eighteen year old son.
Speaker 4: About it, the names of them she's studied.
Speaker 5: Right before the reunion, that's question.
Speaker 4: Was coming, yeat, do you think we're going to keep
Speaker 4: hearing about Lenny.
Speaker 3: I think it was a consensus that we made it
Speaker 3: very clear that we were onwards, right, So I don't
Speaker 3: think so, and I hope we don't. It thought it
Speaker 3: should be about her her. We want to know about Lisa.
Speaker 3: You know her come up from Lenny's. You know the ashes.
Speaker 5: It's a phoenix. I tell her all the time.
Speaker 3: You're a phoenix girl, Rise above it all. Don't fit
Speaker 3: into the bs.
Speaker 2: And who what would you say your vibe was from
Speaker 2: Lenny when you first met him.
Speaker 4: Like did you get the egg?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 3: Of course you knew right away the eck a one
Speaker 3: hundred percent everybody did. And you know, you beat your
Speaker 3: respectful and you sit there and you're like, Okay, you
Speaker 3: know she that's her, that's her. Man. You can't. You
Speaker 3: can't bad mouth someone who's going to be around you,
Speaker 3: you know, by default, you know, through Lisa. So when
Speaker 3: when she was, you know, realizing that all this stuff
Speaker 3: was happening, and then she was in a position to say, okay,
Speaker 3: now this all everything that was happening to me was true.
Speaker 5: I wasn't listening da da da.
Speaker 3: Now you're on her back and saying yeah, yeah when
Speaker 3: we knew this, and we didn't we didn't want to
Speaker 3: tell you this. So it's it's just a lot of
Speaker 3: stuff happening. But I think she's in a better place.
Speaker 3: And JODI's a really good guy, honestly, and I think
Speaker 3: that the future looks really bright for Lisa Oll.
Speaker 4: That's good for sure.
Speaker 5: I mean, Jody's amazing.
Speaker 4: So other than Nicole, who would you say you're closest.
Speaker 5: To Alexia and I at the union.
Speaker 3: Did you see how the two of us all of
Speaker 3: a sudden, I'm like, yes, like she you know again,
Speaker 3: I'm trying to like get people to get out of
Speaker 3: the hypnotism, right, you know. So I thought that that
Speaker 3: was really kind of powerful for her to step out
Speaker 3: of that, and you know, the O G click versus
Speaker 3: the new BN really stood in her truth.
Speaker 5: So that was really cool.
Speaker 3: So I'm really excited about my relationship with Alexia for
Speaker 3: sure in the future.
Speaker 2: And what are your thoughts on Julia coming in hot
Speaker 2: this season to stir.
Speaker 4: It like every do you? But and the way she
Speaker 4: does it, like she acts like she doesn't know she does.
Speaker 4: She's pretty smart.
Speaker 3: Oh no, she knows what she's doing. But it's the
Speaker 3: way she does it with the accent. I call it
Speaker 3: Betty Booby.
Speaker 5: So it's like.
Speaker 3: Marys Madison, you know, you always and you can't be
Speaker 3: mad at her. It's kind of like tap me just
Speaker 3: out of my business. But like, so the way she
Speaker 3: says and you're like.
Speaker 5: Fuck, like you can't be mad at her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3: So she's she's got a nice little a little power
Speaker 3: to her, you know, superpowerful, and she let it.
Speaker 2: Bounce right off of her when whenever anybody says anything
Speaker 2: like whether Lars is like you like Penis like, She's.
Speaker 3: Like yeah, whatever, exactly you have any.
Speaker 5: I die?
Speaker 3: She's clever, Yeah, she's She's pretty funny and dynamic is incredible, right,
Speaker 3: Like Miami.
Speaker 4: Miami is a favorite.
Speaker 2: It used to be Potomac and an exciting news because
Speaker 2: Tamra is out of town. Gerty is going to be
Speaker 2: recapping Potomac and Housewife headlines with me and Tomorrow's pod.
Speaker 4: But Potomac was my favorite, and then Miami has to take.
Speaker 2: I mean, have we really the lifestyle all of the
Speaker 2: different looks, how different everybody.
Speaker 4: Is, But then how you guys can actually have fun?
Speaker 4: I really am moving forward and move forward forward.
Speaker 3: Is the key, I think you know right?
Speaker 2: What is your thought on watching back? Do you wish
Speaker 2: you wouldn't have said anything about the now?
Speaker 4: I'm in a blank? Is it a VBL or a
Speaker 4: BBL or something I clearly don't have?
Speaker 3: Well I don't have it either.
Speaker 5: I just had a tough me talking to my boobs.
Speaker 2: Job, boob job, that's it, listen, I've had a neckleft,
Speaker 2: my boob's done.
Speaker 3: I'm I just had both very open about it.
Speaker 5: I mean, what is the problem.
Speaker 3: I was just making a comparison, like, don't say you
Speaker 3: too when it's like my face is still my face, Like,
Speaker 3: let's not do it before and I'm a picture, let's
Speaker 3: not do that.
Speaker 2: What is your thought on people not sharing when if
Speaker 2: they're in the public eye, not sharing if they've had
Speaker 2: plastic surgery, because I knew, I know people that are
Speaker 2: very against it that are on these shows, and I've
Speaker 2: always had to it is what it is.
Speaker 5: Like, No, you didn't have anything, only your lips job done?
Speaker 3: Okay, Like if it's a whole different If your phone
Speaker 3: can even recognize you, what I'm that's the key, right,
Speaker 3: here's the key, the key to say to the public
Speaker 3: if you had anything done or not. If your phone
Speaker 3: can even recognize you, that would be the key, right. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And I'm talking to you just generally speaking, not to
Speaker 3: anybody particular. So it's like I had nothing done to
Speaker 3: my face. I literally use half of a syringer of
Speaker 3: filler and it's for my smellline because I'm a happy guy.
Speaker 5: I snapped him match.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: You know, to each your own what you want to share.
Speaker 2: But I think you have to Also, you can't be
Speaker 2: annoyed if somebody is sure going to bring it up.
Speaker 2: That's like and if you're in a conversation where you
Speaker 2: want to share or you can say listen. I think
Speaker 2: she could have shut it all down if she were
Speaker 2: to just say listen, guys, of course I've had work done.
Speaker 4: I'm not talking about it exactly.
Speaker 3: But by the way, by the way, this is all
Speaker 3: based on this Page six Live podcast in New York.
Speaker 3: It was a fireside chat thing. We're like, okay, we'll
Speaker 3: ask you some quick question. The question is okay. It
Speaker 3: was a bunch of questions.
Speaker 5: One of them was.
Speaker 3: Who's the fakest S S T? So, yeah, I'm fake
Speaker 3: in my boob and whatever, Adriana mean whatever, everybody is fake.
Speaker 3: But then they said the fake ist and so in comparison,
Speaker 3: I just said question and that was it was a
Speaker 3: stupid game. So all of a sudden, it became like
Speaker 3: you call me fake and you and it's like, why
Speaker 3: we standing in this stupid you know, little back and
Speaker 3: forth when like there's bigger issues to you know, deal with,
Speaker 3: especially health, you know, Like so that was my whole perspective,
Speaker 3: like why are we making this a bigger deal and
Speaker 3: making it a whole storyline about that, you know. So
Speaker 3: I just don't get it. But you know, have you
Speaker 3: read nothing?
Speaker 4: How much do you give your kids an allowance?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 5: They don't get allowance?
Speaker 3: What do you want? What do you want? Okay?
Speaker 5: Amazon? Okay, okay, it's coming tomorrow on Amazon Prime. That's it.
Speaker 3: Like, but my kids are young, they are what? Oh no,
Speaker 3: my kids are I have a sixteen year old and
Speaker 3: is that wrong?
Speaker 5: I don't give them an allowance.
Speaker 3: My kids they play Christmas. We give them so much
Speaker 3: gifts that like, they don't need it for the next
Speaker 3: six months.
Speaker 4: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, because we have the reunion we heard and
Speaker 2: I have boys twenty five hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: But it's a girl. So you know her hair, I mean,
Speaker 3: have you seen how beautiful and thick? Yeah, Sophia's hair
Speaker 3: is Sophia. And also she's a model and so she
Speaker 3: needs upkeeping in many ways. And girls they get the
Speaker 3: nails done that. I have boys and they're still young.
Speaker 2: So my kids, I mean, all they wants is like
Speaker 2: me to give him roadblocks and a roadbox or whatever, right,
Speaker 2: roadbucks and like sports?
Speaker 5: Right, sounds very simple.
Speaker 3: But you know, if I had a girl, I think
Speaker 3: that she would definitely want to be like mommy and
Speaker 3: do all that stuff. So I can I can see it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I can see it.
Speaker 2: And is there anything about watching the season back that
Speaker 2: you change.
Speaker 5: That I'll change.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'll change it. It's just that
Speaker 3: I was misunderstood a lot of times when you know,
Speaker 3: when you have cancer or something like that, Like when
Speaker 3: I wanted to go to a luncheon with the girls
Speaker 3: or whatever, do you think I want to lead my
Speaker 3: entrance to be like I have to go and get
Speaker 3: surgery tomorrow. Guys? What when? Like who wants to be
Speaker 3: a Debbie Downer? So my whole goal was to be like,
Speaker 3: let me normalize my life, let me put this aside,
Speaker 3: let me have fun with my girls. And then when
Speaker 3: the girls started talking bullshit and just kind of like
Speaker 3: nippicky over the small stuff, it was like on three
Speaker 3: two one three two one, guys, yeah, I gotta get
Speaker 3: a surgery if I get tomorrow, and you guys are
Speaker 3: talking about this.
Speaker 5: So it was all about.
Speaker 4: Almost like quit wasting my time with this pettition.
Speaker 3: About my time, but just like appreciate what you have
Speaker 3: appreciate your health. All this doesn't matter because you never
Speaker 3: know what's gonna happen to moral. That's where that came from.
Speaker 3: And for some and it's always Twitter people, not Instagram people, whatever.
Speaker 3: It's always the people are like, you know, the cyberbullies,
Speaker 3: and you weaponize the cancer.
Speaker 5: Okay, like, of course not.
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to normalize my life until I can't anymore,
Speaker 3: until you push my buttons, until it's kind of like
Speaker 3: I could have stayed home and dealt with my bullshit
Speaker 3: with cancer, then dealing with this bullshit about you said
Speaker 3: this and take it back and all that minute stuff,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So that's where I always
Speaker 3: came from. And that's where you see this outburst when
Speaker 3: I'm pushing to a corner emotionally to like like be
Speaker 3: like focus. That's bigger fish to fry. That was the
Speaker 3: goal the whole time. And that's where people are taking
Speaker 3: it out of context. Some people, not most people obviously
Speaker 3: understood because one in three again have cancer or will
Speaker 3: have cancer. So my support system, the fans, I just
Speaker 3: don't even have words for it. I get hundreds thousands
Speaker 3: a day, a week, a month, is unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I try.
Speaker 5: To answer, you know the best I can.
Speaker 2: You know, but you've changed a lot of people's lives,
Speaker 2: and you also just being authentic with the highs and
Speaker 2: lows of what you're going through when something is out
Speaker 2: of your control. I'm not even just saying cancer anything anything,
Speaker 2: whether it's illness or relationship wise.
Speaker 4: When things are out of your.
Speaker 2: Control, we sometimes act in a way that isn't our norm.
Speaker 3: And in this room alone, we have a few people
Speaker 3: producers and the two of us. You don't know what
Speaker 3: people are going through. So when you want to judge someone,
Speaker 3: take a beat and say, maybe something's off. Maybe let
Speaker 3: me let her say, give her safe space, safe space
Speaker 3: or what about.
Speaker 4: Even ask questions and then listen to the answer.
Speaker 3: That would be nice, But that's not how this word
Speaker 3: is a judgmental world, and they want to they want
Speaker 3: to fix it and ser bend it right away. What's
Speaker 3: wrong with you? While you with that face, Oh you
Speaker 3: think you better than It's like, whoa, I just went
Speaker 3: through this and that's why this is happening. And it's
Speaker 3: funny how people are saying I weaponized cancer when people
Speaker 3: for two three years have been you know, on the
Speaker 3: same journey whatever that is, and you know, we accept it,
Speaker 3: whether it's divorce, whether it's you know, anything. So like,
Speaker 3: everyone has their journey and let them live it out
Speaker 3: loud and let them heal from it the way they
Speaker 3: need to. That's it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, would they rather you not speak about it at all?
Speaker 4: And then it was.
Speaker 3: Literally one season, it's over. Do you think I want
Speaker 3: to talk about my cancer? No, I'm on onwards. Up, up, up, up,
Speaker 3: up is all I am all about. Next vibration.
Speaker 2: Well, we appreciate you so much for coming on, and guys,
Speaker 2: make sure you tune in tomorrow because we'll be recapping
Speaker 2: Real Housewives of Potomac and doing all of our Housewives headlines.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Gerty, love you, thank you,
