It was nice to see that all of the ladies are finally starting to move on from the drama -- and of course it is back to work for me and the doctors.
I always have a lot of work at the office and now with our new medical building, I need to make sure that all of the floors get rented out to doctors or hospital groups that will be a good fit for the building. It keeps me very busy, but I enjoy what I do.
Watching some of these events right now, I realize everything that unfolded and all of the pain that everybody went through was based on some alleged salon gossip.
I try to never to listen to gossip or believe it, and I always try and protect the names of those not present. Most of the time, it is made-up or exaggerated and I think we can all see the pain and repercussions spreading gossip can have on people and their families.
Some of us are parents and some of us are doctors, but none of us would ever set out to hurt a child. After getting to know Toya, I find it very hard to believe that she would ever gossip about Lauren; she is a mother herself and she was also an adopted by her stepfather. Nonetheless, Mariah believes it, and I am deeply saddened for the pain that this is now causing her. Of course, as a mother, she would want to protect her child, but NOT listening to gossip may have been the best way to do just that, or at least confirming the truth before acting on it.
Wow your blog was pretty good until you passively aggressively throw that dig in on Quad spends on her babies.
I give you credit for working in your husband's office. As a nurse, I worked for my husband also. The only difference is that it drove me to become an attorney. Just a word of advise, stop thinking that you are special because you are the wife of a doctor. We are not special.
You do know that both you and Mariah were severely overdressed for a poolside birthday party....you were more appropriately dressed for an inaugural ball....when I saw the fire pit smoke, I cringed at the thought of that smoke permeating an expensive dress with embellishments that would require special professional cleaning...what would make a person dress so outlandish for an occasion? I cannot imagine what the invitation said with regard to dress....everyone seemed to either be over dressed or under dressed for the event...since there was no clearly defined dress code...hint: pool = casual

Kari, you stated that after you got to know Toya. You do not Toya and neither do I, but I know how we are. She is faking for you and selling out her own and as long as she is kissing your but what do you care about Mariah. Mariah was wrong for not being the bigger person at the party and not walking away to save the discussion for another day. I have a feeling that Mrs. Toya is just a Mariah hater because of what she got. Mariah's attitude make her look bad, but I have a feeling the real snake is kissing your behind and seller out her own. Typical! That Quad is no friend to Mariah, she has a better fake than Mariah does so she thinks she is better. Fake is what she is that she had to settle for that man she is with and be fake. This is not a put down to him, he is cute, but she is just with him for the Dr.'s wife title. Mariah, check your attitude at the door, because you play right into your haters hands. You have a good, loving, supportive husband and they like you acting the way you do.

It was termed as a "black tie affair". That is how people dress at a black tie affair. It is very formal.
Kari, you messy just like the rest of the ladies
This woman has real issues. Kari thinks she's better than everybody and all she does is sit around and judge and act like the victim,"Get your life"!
You are someone that thinks you're above everyone else but you are no better then either one. GOSSIP is GOSSIP, and from the looks of things, thats something you do just as well as the others. You have many of flaws, MANY! And If I can recall, TOYA started the fight because If she had any kind of respect for you, she would have waited to tell Mariah whatever she had to tell her. Then TOYA threw her drink. So If you want to be mad at MARIAH, you have to be mad at TOYA just as well. RIGHT is RIGHT and WRONG is WRONG! Im sorry, bravo needs to kick you and your husband of the show. Mariah, Quad and the two LADY doctors make the show.
No gossip? Didn't I see you, your husband, and Simone in the kitchen talking about Mariah? I see why you work with him. Since you were a medical mistriss you want to make sure no one else does what you did. Duncan already believes in divorce.
Ms Kari,
"Queen B" is a fun description not a classification.
I'm surprised the main characters in the Married to Medicine reality show are not sensing your prejudice. Asking a Police Officer to remove Ms Mariah and her family without knowing the incident details was an intent to humiliate Ms Mariah for dismissing her responsibilities as host or befriending Ms Quad.
REDF
@REDF Kari (or anyone, for that matter) has the right to have the police remove a guest who will not leave. That being said, I would have gone another way but that's easy for me to say sitting in my TV room and a peaceful home surrounding me. I wish all these ladies well. They are smart and usually have a positive outlook.
@ WinterisComing REDF I see your point and agree we need to suttound our self with a peaceful place. I think that Karii was mad 1st because Mariha made her reinvite Quda to the 2nd Mari did not come and help set up the party 3rd she was 3 hrs late 4th Mariha did not run to Kari and kiss her a** and tell her she was sorry for being late.. So see used the police to get back at Mariha and to imbearish her..This was not a way to make herself look good & Mariha look bad because it backfired on Kari...And Mariha should be ashame of her self for being late and leaving her guest alone at a party not knowing anyone,,she could have wated and had that talk with Toya another time...Toya got what was coming to her for runnning her mouuth with that said IF you do not want people talking about things you do not want known that you DO NOT tell anyone,,because it is said to say but youu cannot trust a lot of people even your family will run their mouths about what you said...

Police Officers are to be called when there is a crime being committed or about to be committed.
Ms Kari used the Police Department to act as her personal security.
There was absolutely no need to call the Police. The party was private affair and Ms Kari could have asked Ms Mariah's husband to escort his wife and their family home. Both women (Ms Mariah and Ms Toya) looked deeply upset.
Pulling hair, pushing, kicking, shoving and smacking one another is not a crime. Their behavior was wrong, but they are not criminals.
REDF WinterisComing"Pulling hair, pushing, kicking, shoving and smacking one another is not a crime"
umm, that would be ASSAULT; a big fat CRIMINAL OFFENSE. wow. i hope u do not experience it, but, if u do, please notify the police
WinterisComing REDF
mariah was a cohost or co-sponsor of the party, she was trying to compose herself after the fight. no one tried to see if she was ok. just because you appear to have the upperhand in a fight mariah, does not mean you started the fight.
Oh, Kari, I think you are forgetting you that started this "word of words" with Quad? So, now you don't get to play victim.
See, I am going to give you some advise my mother gave me when dealing with people "don't start none, won't be none" --- Remember that!
"Soul-choking bitterness" describes Quad and Mariah perfectly! The only time they're happy is when they are disparaging others. They deserve each other.
Kari, You seem sensible but uppity. I get you are a doctors wife, but who cares, really. Any woman should be proud of her husband and act respectful. I was looking forward to a new bunch of ladies that weren't housewives but this is essentially the same just a different title. Just a note to you, you better be bringing some drama if you want to be on this network. Viewers have grown to expect it. If you bring ghetto to your home, this is what you get
Women of class never tell. They just portray. You lack in portraying and, seem a little quick to tell everyone how experienced and "high class" you are. You may have some fooled but, not all. Still this is just a show for entertaining. And, your character is great in the mix. You are one reason I watch the show. Keep it up!
Kari - I'm sure you are a wonderful mother and a wonderful friend, however, please stop acting so stiff as a carrot. It's alright to have class and all that good stuff but on the Bravo Tv network it's about ratings and people actually wanting to watch the show. I often ask myself, does Kari think that she's entertaining enough to be on television? You are quick to gossip about Quad and Mariah but you have some of the same qualities as Quad and Mariah. You come across as you are very entitled.
This show is primarily of culture and class. The haves and the have nots. Who has proper breeding and who is of low class. Who comes from the ghetto and trying to fit in where they aren't really welcome at all. It is nothing but an illusion of inclusion and that's where the conflicts lies. African Americans, black, and brown people are judged more harshly than that of their white counterparts. And some within those ethnic groups tend to disapprove of there own kind because they brought into the stereotype of their own people. We call those that do the "modern day uncle toms" of society, lack of a better term. Even though this country is called: The United States of America, but how united are we? We still have a long way to go in understanding one another and why our perception of one another is so ignorant. Being culturally different has nothing to do with right or wrong. It is just that "different"?
I am so glad you put this into words for me. Your comment expresses much of what has been bothering me about the dynamic between Kari and the rest of the cast.
Kari brings another layer to this discussion in that she rightfully comes with her own culture into the mix. I see the cast taking this fact in, and trying to understand her. I don't see KAri taking the time to understand the people and the culture in the community in which she and her husband have chosen to reside, here in the USA. This lack of respect towards all the women in the cast and really the community around her, is very offensive. YEt it goes unchecked for all the reasons you bring up in your comment.
Kari, You are a total class act and you need to choose your friends more wisely!
Kari, YOU KNOW GOOD AND WELL WHO STARTED THAT FIGHT, but you chose to see and believe what YOU WANT TO SEE AND BELIEVE! You are the worst kind of person, and Mariah should thank her lucky stars that this pretentious and self-righteous woman is out of her life! GOOD FOR YOU, MARIAH!
Kari, you need to get over yourself. How can you call the police on your friends. These are professional people who were in the process of leaving your home. I am still trying to understand the reason for the police. I know you were angry and rightfully so, but the police. UGHHH!!!
so wait, you don't like to LISTEN to gossip, you just like to gossip!
@shysharon love that one! Kari, loves to gossip as well.
When I started watching this show, I wasnt sure about you. But now that I have seen every episode,I think your my favorite. Please dont make me change my mind. Continue to stay above the rest.
cessymarie
wow, how sad, so u like people that are rude, nasty, classless,and not a real friend, well guess u found your soul mate
redy cessymarie
Nah...she said she likes Kari, not Mariah, Quaid and/or Toya.
Get over yourself.....the only clowns in the show are you and Toya
Quad is great. I'm sure you agree Kari.
Kari is a waste of space with neither taste, dignity or grace.
Kari,
The bottom line is everything is on tape and it will surface on the show.. In addition, Mariah did not start the fight. Toya confronted Mariah and threw the drink in her face.
gjsimon3256@gmail.com Don't forget Toya pushed Mariah and berated her in front of her guests
Yes, Dr. Simone is definitely a credit to her profession as doctor, mother, and friend. She is a remarkable woman and deserves the respect she gets. Nice read Miss Kari :)
Ming
Other than her calling a little girl a "b", she's perfect. Kari is too. If you don't count cheating with a man that is married.
@gracebay1 @Ming Children are NOT perfect angels. Some are "Bs" and "Ds"-- though those aren't names I choose. Kids can be brats, mean and whiney. Just because a child is part of the show, does NOT mean they are always sweet kids- just like not all of them are beautiful or cute. They are small humans- each with their own wonders, beauty, and imperfections. I would really prefer to NOT see any children or mention of them on these shows. They are the ones who lose when their parents/family agree to act in these shows. Prayers for their happiness and peace.
I must agree with you in the Miss Toya gave a great party. She made it fun and kept it exciting for both children and adults. I really like the way you got along with everyone at Miss Toya's....Looking good Miss Kari :)
Miss Kari you must remember that you threw shade at Miss Quad first and her rebuttal made a huger amount of shade on you. Remember, you both reconciled, so let the past be the past.
Hi Miss Kari, You are an asset to your husband and a role model for business women. Great job upgrading your family's lifestyle. You do appear to be struggling a bit when dealing with 'new money' type individuals. Interactions that involve building friendship require tact and patience. Remember that a comment made to a person from the same culture (upbringing) as you may be read as harmless or even comical; and, that same comment made to a woman from a different culture or upbringing than yours may be read as malicious. Some of your comments to Miss Quad and Miss Mariah read with a malicious intent to many of your viewers. Because you are intelligent, please be more consider of their feelings. You can not like a person's personality and still show classy etiquette when having a conversation, disagreement, or reconciliation with them. Otherwise, keep doing you cause you are fabulous :)
Ming
If Kari and Duncan aren't "new money" I don't know who is!LOL
judy@london Ming
They aren't "New Money" they're "No money" trying to appear as though they have "Money."
deedeekid judy@london Ming london
LOLOLOL, I'm on the floor laughing, enough said. And if you don't want to invite Quad to your home DON'T it's that easy no explanation necessary.
You're a straight shooter and I like that. It must be so exhausting to be around Mariah and Quad.
Just eliminate them from your circle.
I think Mariah is very narcissistic and never truly a friend.
Girl, please get over your self. You're absolutely annoying and think you're better than everyone. You are clearly a social-climber and are one of those people who are obsessed with status. It's pathetic how far you'll go to be on top. You and Duncan look are despicable.
Oh Please here we go again... Kari you have said so messy stuff about Quad and Mariah both. If you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen. You never should have started the crap or do you remember what you have said. Talking about a split personality I guess we need to have Quads husband put you on the couch for a few sessions.
lfaunt
Kari and Duncan need to be on a couch.
You are definitely the most classy lady on the show! I don't know where all the hateful & mean comments come from on here!? Are we watching the same show? I love you & think you are great!
