Speaker 1: Okay, So a couple of things. One is that with
Speaker 1: the Uvaldi school situation, it's been just a horror show.
Speaker 1: So I just want to say that I know someone
Speaker 1: who's school wrote a letter home saying that we wanted
Speaker 1: to let you know as parents that a car drove
Speaker 1: by today, an suv with kids or people, I don't
Speaker 1: even know. It was kids out the window shooting water
Speaker 1: guns at the students, shouting profanity. So when I first
Speaker 1: read it, I was like a water gun school and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, with the the temperature
Speaker 1: in the state of what's just happened, that sounds horrific,
Speaker 1: Like it's just then you immediately think, well, what if
Speaker 1: it was real guns? And the school had to say
Speaker 1: we looked at our security footage and in fact, is
Speaker 1: not real guns. And that freaked me out. And I
Speaker 1: was telling that to um this woman who was doing
Speaker 1: my nails, and she said that at her school that
Speaker 1: there was a kid who came in after the shooting
Speaker 1: with a BB gun. So that to me is that's
Speaker 1: expelled that. I don't even think that's suspension, like we
Speaker 1: have to get really crazy because it's just just not
Speaker 1: a risk we can take. And it just it freaked
Speaker 1: me out, and you want to like bubble wrapped the school,
Speaker 1: and while if the school was too secure, that would
Speaker 1: freak out the kids. I don't even know that I care,
Speaker 1: you know, I just don't even know that I care.
Speaker 1: So it's just a crazy time. I just wanted to
Speaker 1: share that with you because it just it's also heightened
Speaker 1: and terrible, and incidentally, because it isn't it is incidental,
Speaker 1: uh compared to what's going on be strong. My team
Speaker 1: was there. Um, it's all private because obviously the people's
Speaker 1: privacy is very important. But we've given each family five
Speaker 1: thousand dollars that was raised. I know that funeral expenses
Speaker 1: have been taken care of and customize caskets and things
Speaker 1: like that. Jesus horrible to even talk about, but just
Speaker 1: an extra five thousand dollars for I don't even know what.
Speaker 1: What the hell can I possibly say? There's no way
Speaker 1: to even uh tap into someone's tragedy and misery and healing,
Speaker 1: and it's just it was just something that we could
Speaker 1: do before we knew that the funerals are being paid for. Um,
Speaker 1: it is way less than a drop in the bucket. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I was given I was awarded Reality Royalty Award
Speaker 1: by MTV. So I want to go through this whole
Speaker 1: thing with you because I want you to understand how
Speaker 1: these things go for me. So here's how it goes.
Speaker 1: I got an email like a couple of months ago,
Speaker 1: maybe or definitely more than a month about saying I
Speaker 1: was nominated for some award and I forgot about it.
Speaker 1: And then I was with my assistant in the car
Speaker 1: going somewhere and she said, you're you're not. They sent
Speaker 1: another email You're nominated for an award, and I was like,
Speaker 1: is it? It's everything to me. It seems like it's
Speaker 1: not real. If it's being emailed to me, it seems
Speaker 1: like it's just not a real thing. I cannot explain it.
Speaker 1: Or I forget things like it was so crazy and
Speaker 1: so busy that just things that are important come through
Speaker 1: my email and I forget about them, and then things
Speaker 1: that aren't important, like my tail are coming today or
Speaker 1: the most stupid thing you could imagine that I focus
Speaker 1: on because I only swept the small stuff. It was
Speaker 1: literally the only sentence I ever had on a dating
Speaker 1: profile was I only sweat the small stuff and said
Speaker 1: my name. I didn't say what I did for a living.
Speaker 1: Didn't say long walks on the beach. It said Bethany
Speaker 1: or be because I want to be private. B my age,
Speaker 1: I only swept the small stuff. So now we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into that. So then my publicist says, well, no,
Speaker 1: there's like some event and something tele eyes and something
Speaker 1: else isn't and it's live and it's taped, and I
Speaker 1: don't hear what she's talking about. I never pay attention
Speaker 1: to anything until I'm actually there. So she then says, no,
Speaker 1: it's real and they're giving you an award, like a
Speaker 1: Lifetime Achievement Reality Royalty Award. So I'm like, what is that?
Speaker 1: That sounds sort of cool, but like it's me, so
Speaker 1: I think it's not real or I don't even know
Speaker 1: what it means. So so then she's like, no, it's
Speaker 1: a real thing. So I then think it's like a
Speaker 1: real real thing. So then she says, who do you
Speaker 1: want to to to like announce you or whatever, So
Speaker 1: I didn't know who to think, like Ellen the Rock,
Speaker 1: like you know people I know people who are on
Speaker 1: the Jersey Shore because they got the Reality Royalty Award
Speaker 1: for the first award ever given last year and who knows.
Speaker 1: So then my poposist represents Paris Hilton. I used to
Speaker 1: nanny Paris Hilton. She seemed like the best fit. It
Speaker 1: has a narrative, Um, I know her and it's a nice,
Speaker 1: like little story. So we are preparing for the event
Speaker 1: and I don't borrow clothes just as a rule. I
Speaker 1: don't want to owe anybody. I don't like to wear
Speaker 1: something if I can't keep it. It's just not my
Speaker 1: my m oh, but I had no time. This was
Speaker 1: like when I found out about this part of it,
Speaker 1: and then it was going to l A and I
Speaker 1: was bringing Brent. So I texted my friend for Nando Garcia,
Speaker 1: who is the head designer at oscar to Lorna. He
Speaker 1: did Paris Hilton's wedding dress, which is extraordinary and he's
Speaker 1: one of the only the only people that I would
Speaker 1: ever text just because I know them like I have
Speaker 1: their numbers, would be Christian Siriano and I thank him
Speaker 1: like I don't know anybody else, and that that's just
Speaker 1: like how I operate. I just said great. So he
Speaker 1: sent five options. I picked a second one and we
Speaker 1: were off to the races. So he said he want
Speaker 1: they wanted to have a measured. They had someone come
Speaker 1: to my hotel room in between three appearances doing a
Speaker 1: book book appearance, someone came or do my assistant measure me? No,
Speaker 1: I think, oh, first I sent them a video of
Speaker 1: how big it was. It came back to me my
Speaker 1: boobies were handing hang out. Now I had to have
Speaker 1: it binder clipped, and the day before the event, I
Speaker 1: had to have one of my assistants go to any
Speaker 1: Rando tailor, just like anybody at a dry cleaner. I
Speaker 1: wasn't even with the dress because I didn't have time.
Speaker 1: So this was like a ship show waiting to happen.
Speaker 1: So the dress came back. I tried it on for
Speaker 1: the first time in l A. It did fit yippy KaiA.
Speaker 1: That was amazing. Um. I get to the event and
Speaker 1: it's a Barker Hanger. It seems like a big thing.
Speaker 1: It's all housewild, like it's a lot of housewilves. So
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that it's like different than the other
Speaker 1: I didn't know there were two MTV awards, like this
Speaker 1: is the Unscripted Awards, but the red carpets really big.
Speaker 1: And now I'm thinking, like I was thinking of having
Speaker 1: Ellen introduced me at the Unscripted Awards, like I didn't
Speaker 1: know where I was. And it's major, don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: but like it was a different major. I you know,
Speaker 1: what's funny is that when I ended up watching the
Speaker 1: real MTV Awards, I ended up thinking that our events
Speaker 1: seemed better than that event because most of those people
Speaker 1: I didn't even know who they are. That just because
Speaker 1: that's just because maybe it's younger and this is my
Speaker 1: audience and whatever. But like so I walk in and
Speaker 1: it was kind of a big deal, like they were
Speaker 1: making a big deal out of this a war, Like
Speaker 1: I was sort of a the guest of honor of
Speaker 1: this thing that became very real, and I was it
Speaker 1: was nice, like um, and I you know, my makeup
Speaker 1: was was good, but it wasn't as good as I
Speaker 1: wanted it to be. So I was trying to get
Speaker 1: their person that's just sitting there just to do people's
Speaker 1: touch ups, like helping me at the makeup five seconds before.
Speaker 1: And I felt a little shoddy because my shoes I
Speaker 1: bought online and they only they were these beautiful shoes
Speaker 1: of butterflies, and I have long toes and they were
Speaker 1: already hanging over the front. But these were half size
Speaker 1: too small. But I had to buy them. I had
Speaker 1: no choice. I bottom days before shipped them overnight. They
Speaker 1: came the day before. My feet were like hanging on
Speaker 1: the pavement. I was like Fred fon Stone, my feet
Speaker 1: under the car like as the engine. It was just
Speaker 1: but I so and I'm getting my touch up at
Speaker 1: the last minute. But you know, I had lips glass
Speaker 1: in my bag. But I wasn't like Paris has like
Speaker 1: a makeup hair person with her doing touch ups every second.
Speaker 1: And if I had known how like everything we were
Speaker 1: doing was on t V, I think I would have also.
Speaker 1: So I wrote my speech, which I'll read to you.
Speaker 1: I'll read it to you maybe today, maybe another day
Speaker 1: if we haven't I have enough time. But I wrote
Speaker 1: my speech and I went backstage and the prompter person said,
Speaker 1: it's the best speech, and it's the only speech I
Speaker 1: didn't write, which was kind of cute and sweet and
Speaker 1: snorky and funny. But I was the only person who
Speaker 1: wrote my own speech at the unscripted event, because everyone
Speaker 1: had their speech written, but it was all Housewife Kyle,
Speaker 1: Kathy Hilton, Garcel, Lisa Rinna, Erica, Erica, Jane you know,
Speaker 1: like a lot of people, Tamer was very, very lovely nice.
Speaker 1: I was in this touch up moment, so I said
Speaker 1: hi to her, and I was I'm always being aware
Speaker 1: that I'm still on the show that I'm like not
Speaker 1: being friendly enough and not being complimentary and like saying
Speaker 1: everything about everyone's outfit. But I was getting ready for
Speaker 1: the thing, So Tammer was nice. Erica gave a little
Speaker 1: bit of a snub, you know, but I kind of
Speaker 1: get that because the way that there was like an
Speaker 1: interaction where the Housewives takes everything it and makes it
Speaker 1: exponentially bigger, even if it's not. Like I was on
Speaker 1: this podcast and I said that Dennis had told me
Speaker 1: about Erica's husband. I've never said a word about her,
Speaker 1: but Dennis did tell me about Erica's husband. I said it.
Speaker 1: Once this thing became relevant and it became an issue
Speaker 1: for Kyle and Erica because it sort of made it
Speaker 1: like they knew, which I didn't know what was going
Speaker 1: on on their show. So me bringing up me adding
Speaker 1: one drop of water about something became this whole thing
Speaker 1: because me saying that I knew made it like on
Speaker 1: that show, did they know? But I didn't know about
Speaker 1: that because I hadn't watched the show. So you say
Speaker 1: one little thing and everything is like a big thing
Speaker 1: and you never know the undertones. But so then Erica
Speaker 1: recently was on Watch Happens Live and Andy asked her
Speaker 1: about something with me or me knowing, and she said, um,
Speaker 1: I don't know my guys in a home and her guys,
Speaker 1: her guy's dead, about Dennis my ex, her guys dead
Speaker 1: and my guys in a home. And I it went crazy.
Speaker 1: I think it was so crash and crash and terrible.
Speaker 1: It was very thoughtless and it was like cold. But
Speaker 1: I didn't really care because she's not really in my world.
Speaker 1: And I don't mean that to be rude. But so
Speaker 1: she was at this event and she sort of gave
Speaker 1: like a weird it was nothing. It was like literally
Speaker 1: an eyelash flutter when she saw me and I saw her.
Speaker 1: I didn't get up and say hey, it was like,
Speaker 1: oh what is that? What are we? But you know,
Speaker 1: no shade whatever, It just was what it was. We
Speaker 1: if this, if I hadn't said that thing and she
Speaker 1: hadn't said that thing, we would have been very friendly
Speaker 1: to each other. But you know, all's fair in love
Speaker 1: and war. In the Housewives, I guess, which I'm not
Speaker 1: even on. Okay, so Kathy's there and I used to
Speaker 1: work for Cathy, and I don't know what's going on
Speaker 1: the show. I don't know what's going on with her
Speaker 1: and anybody else, Like I don't know if I'm a
Speaker 1: blood or a crypt like what's going on with you know?
Speaker 1: I just in my life and was taking pictures. But
Speaker 1: apparently later this whole crazy thing happened while we were there,
Speaker 1: because people are writing about it, about some you know,
Speaker 1: riffed between Lisa and Cathy. I mean, I said, I
Speaker 1: think I said to Cathy at the table. I would
Speaker 1: say to Cathy, I would say to Kyle, like, get
Speaker 1: off this. You don't need to be you're You're You're
Speaker 1: Cathy Hilton. There's an allure and an elevation, and you
Speaker 1: don't have to I don't know what part of the
Speaker 1: season they're in or where she is, but like, you
Speaker 1: don't have to do this at all, Like you don't
Speaker 1: do any of this. You don't have to do this,
Speaker 1: you have to be on the reunion, have to do
Speaker 1: the show again, you don't have to do any of this.
Speaker 1: Um people like it. People want to do it whatever.
Speaker 1: But when people get surprised at these horrific, horrific riffs happen,
Speaker 1: and I have I haven't been in the middle of
Speaker 1: any really horrific one. It's like, it's about Tom. It's
Speaker 1: not about Tom. You know, get a hobby like life
Speaker 1: is not a cabaret like okay, not like crazy societal riffs.
Speaker 1: In the words of the prophet Caroline Manzo, and I
Speaker 1: may be paraphrasing, you hang out near a dumpster, you're
Speaker 1: gonna smell like garbage. Like there's a lot of garbage,
Speaker 1: and it's unnecessary garbage at a certain level. I was
Speaker 1: part of the garbage. I love the garbage. I loved
Speaker 1: seeing everyone um. But if you don't have to do that,
Speaker 1: then you shouldn't. And Caroline Manzo is literally one of
Speaker 1: a teency weensy tiny handful of people that have left
Speaker 1: the housewives that wouldn't pay to be asked back. And
Speaker 1: I know that that I know there's a There are
Speaker 1: very few people who say they've gotten they've left have
Speaker 1: gotten fired. That's a fact. Nine point nine out of
Speaker 1: ten of the people who have left have gotten fired.
Speaker 1: And other people who have not been fired and left
Speaker 1: also want to go back. Carol Manzo is not in
Speaker 1: that group. Carolyn Manzo is in the Bethany Frankel group. Okay,
Speaker 1: so Megan and Harry go to the UK for the jubilee.
Speaker 1: This is it sounds horrible. The court of public opinion
Speaker 1: and certainly the court of anyone who favors the royals,
Speaker 1: and certainly the court of UK and Great Britain are
Speaker 1: not big fans. So now you've left the royal family.
Speaker 1: You have your reasons, You've stated them on national international
Speaker 1: television for OPRAH, and you are the impetus for this.
Speaker 1: Tell all to a family that would like to be
Speaker 1: the most private family in the world. I mean, for
Speaker 1: the most part, they'd like to keep things private. So
Speaker 1: now we are all of the dirty laundry in a
Speaker 1: in a group that isn't that big. Isn't that keen
Speaker 1: on air dirty laundry? So I mean, I don't I
Speaker 1: didn't go to I don't have to be a fucking
Speaker 1: wizard to imagine that the in laws aren't that happy
Speaker 1: the past and so they're also the royals, so they
Speaker 1: mustn't be that happy. So now you've got the court
Speaker 1: of public opinion on you. The in laws have the
Speaker 1: court of public opinion on them. So for some reason,
Speaker 1: everybody has decided that as family members, they're supposed to
Speaker 1: get along in some way. There's some sort of modicum
Speaker 1: of tradition that is supposed to be abided by. But
Speaker 1: I can't figure out why, because any daughter in law
Speaker 1: that aired dirty laundry of their parents in law as
Speaker 1: normal people, would be excommunicated from the church and extricated.
Speaker 1: So now take that to somebody famous. So I'm fairly
Speaker 1: well known if I aired any laundry about my fiance's
Speaker 1: family in any way, and like not even like on television.
Speaker 1: Just if anything ever got back that I said about
Speaker 1: the family at all, they're very private. That would not
Speaker 1: that would not that's a nonstarter. Like that would be
Speaker 1: a massive a massive problem, would be a disrespect to
Speaker 1: be a boundary cross or my fiance would be it
Speaker 1: would be probably a deal breaker, Like it's a it's
Speaker 1: he takes privacy very seriously, he takes code very seriously. Okay,
Speaker 1: so now that's just he's just they're just normal people.
Speaker 1: So now let's take it to the next level. I
Speaker 1: do that to my fiance who's not a member of
Speaker 1: the royal family. One party here is a public person.
Speaker 1: I take it on television. I mean, there's no there's
Speaker 1: no turning back from that. So now I take it
Speaker 1: on television. But his parents are public figures, the most
Speaker 1: public figures on the planet Earth. I take that. And
Speaker 1: by the way, I'm not saying stuff that was said
Speaker 1: what is or isn't true. It's not my business. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I wasn't there, I don't know, but I
Speaker 1: do know that they're a public family. So now not
Speaker 1: only do Da Harry and Megan want to save face,
Speaker 1: like they want to go there and act like everything's okay,
Speaker 1: But like when you put your hands in front of
Speaker 1: your eyes doesn't mean that people can't see you. Like
Speaker 1: we saw what happened, Like we watched the tell all.
Speaker 1: It's not like a shock that we're reading now that
Speaker 1: the there was a chilly reception. They weren't standing on
Speaker 1: the main balcony, they weren't sitting in the front row.
Speaker 1: No ship, Sherlock, you fucking aired your dirty laundry of
Speaker 1: the most public family on the planet Earth. Like, oh,
Speaker 1: we shocked you weren't. I mean, it's amazing you were
Speaker 1: invited at all and they were doing that because they
Speaker 1: have to save face. But like I mean, I I
Speaker 1: I gotta believe that even if there were all these problems,
Speaker 1: like William and Cater are part of the machine too.
Speaker 1: They're cog in the machine too. They play the game.
Speaker 1: Don't bite the hand that feeds you. Don't hate the player,
Speaker 1: hate the game. They're playing by the rules the whole
Speaker 1: nine yards. But just as a point blank matter, they
Speaker 1: had issues that they experienced that were real for them,
Speaker 1: that they aired on an international episode with the Queen
Speaker 1: of All Media herself blowing up every single skeleton of
Speaker 1: the royal family or many of And now it's major
Speaker 1: news that they went to the UK and that they
Speaker 1: weren't sitting next to will and Kate, and that the
Speaker 1: babies and families weren't blending, that birthday parties weren't blending.
Speaker 1: Like Jane the Nurse and Joe the Mechanic are married
Speaker 1: and they they they are the dirty laundry. I do
Speaker 1: not think that Jane and Joe are going to have
Speaker 1: a really great Christmas dinner
