Kelly Bensimon was fired from the Real Housewives of New York City three years ago, but she’s not going to be a shoulder for Ramona Singer — who has been reportedly demoted to a recurring role next season — to cry on.
When asked if she’s reached out to Singer, who also is calling it quits with her husband Mario after he allegedly was caught with another woman, Bensimon was precise with her words.
“I haven’t seen Ramona in like two years . . . [except] I saw her a year ago when we were filming,” she says with a smile, referencing a drive-by cameo she had last season.
Bensimon’s still tight with LuAnn de Lesseps, who, in a jaw-dropping moment, told Singer at the reunion that “karma’s a bitch.” (Singer had accused de Lesseps’ husband of cheating on her multiple times.)
“I think that’s the nature of that show, to call people out on good, bad or ugly behavior,” says Bensimon. “So if you’re not nice and something bad happens to you, it’s karma.”
bring back that mental-wacko Kelly for season 7 plz!

EONLINE!Joe And Teresa Giudice Sentencing Postponed To October 2nd!
![]()
The sentencing of "Real Housewives of New Jersey" stars Joe and Teresa Giudice has been delayed again, from Sept. 23 to Oct. 2.
U.S. District Judge Esther Salas' office postponed the sentencing for the pair, who pleaded guilty to several counts of fraud in March. They were originally scheduled to be sentenced in July. (The "Real Housewives" episode in which the Giudices take their plea deal is set to air Sunday night at 8 p.m. on Bravo.)
The couple was charged with 41 counts of bankruptcy, bank and mortgage fraud, among other alleged crimes. Joe Giudice, who took the bulk of the responsibility for the wrongdoings, faces a sentence of 37 to 46 months under federal sentencing guidelines, while Teresa Giudice could get as much as 27 months in prison, although her lawyer has been making the case for probation only.
The case stems from the couple's 2010 bankruptcy filing, which they abandoned after Joe Giudice pleaded the Fifth Amendment when questioned about hiding assets and income. They still owe $13.4 million to creditors.
Foxtel May Extend The Real Housewives Franchise To Other Parts Of Australia!

Botox epicentres in Sydney and the Gold Coast are reportedly being considered as potential spinoff locations for The Real Housewives Of Melbourne aka All You Other Bitches Better Step The Fuck Down And Kiss The Ring Because I Straight Murder People: The Gina Liano Story.
Per news.com.au:
"Sources tell News Corp Australia that makers of the Foxtel series have quietly scoped out both Sydney and the Gold Coast as settings for a potential spin-off. Filming on the second season of The Real Housewives of Melbourne only recently commenced, but it’s understood there is a long-term view to expand the franchise. While that exploration is preliminary at best for now, it suggests producers Matchbox are keen to take the formula to a second setting."Kylie Washington, series EP and head of unscripted content at Matchbox Pictures, said there's potential for a spinoff.
“I think we can handle another,” she said.
“It will never be like the States where there are several different franchises running. It’s not sustainable and you don’t want to flood the market. But I think there’s scope to take it (elsewhere).”“We’d love to do a Housewives everywhere. This show has obviously piqued people’s interest because this is something that hasn’t been explored that much. The voyeuristic side of all of us has been delighted.”sources:
