Camille don't go...this show needs you. Please say it ain't so!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Camille,

I'm not a huge Reality-TV show fan, mostly because they all seem to glorify the junior-high mentality of making alliances, backstabbing and bullying to win either money or attention, which I personally believe is a growing epidemic in this country, not only in schools but in the workplace, and I believe it is a direct result of Reality TV glorification.

I didn't watch much this year, but tuned in for a couple of episodes and smiled to myself when I found that Kyle was doing her "Mean Girl routine" - and this time, the whole thing was caught on camera.

I think I viewed these blogs once last year and couldn't believe that others couldn't see what I saw - people helping to bully you.

Actually, I could...because the same thing happened to me, in a different forum...and I think it helped validate my own situation to see the truth come out about the bullies when Brandi showed up :)

I'm not condoning Brandi's response (or yours at the party last year), but it's never the first person to throw a punch that gets the heat, it's the second.

That's what bullying IS...pick at you until you blow and then the bullies play the victim, right? ;)

You came back and rose above the fray, this year, giving second chances and benefits of the doubt to everyone, that's admirable - mission complete:)

Sorry to see you go, but I think it's a wise move to distance yourself from this show now. I believe this kind of personal-life fame brings out the worst in people - i.e. case in point, Adrienne and Lisa, who are my other two favorites (with a brain and some maturity) now seem to be letting it get to them, stooping to levels they previously hadn't.

Don't let Hollywood steal your joy:)

~ Peace

I am a viewer from Sweden and we are a bit behind regarding the episodes. Anway, I have to say that what I saw today - a dinner at your house with a medium, a friend of yours , really was awful. Your drunken friend had no class what so ever, and you really enjoyed that she was behaving badly towards the other women!! I have never felt that you come up to the same standards as many of the other housewives when it comes to behaving in an adult and classy way. I guess, withour knowing, that´s the reason why you behave so badly since you feel that you are so ordinary and common compared to the other wives. I am very satiesfied that you are no longer in this serie.

Camille,
You're my favorite on the show. You're beautiful and classy. I really hope you're coming back next season and show us your new beau.
Birgitta

I admire your decision not to allow filming of your kids or your boyfriend! you and your kids have been through a really hard time and deserve to enjoy life without cameras everywhere and silly housewife drama!! You truely have everything.. beautiful children, a hot boyfriend, inner/outer beauty, and financial freedom to do anything you wish, Go enjoy life and be happy! We will miss you and will look froward to seeing your smiling face in the tabloids!!

Aloha Nui Loa e a Hui Ho!

Camille, I so wish you were coming back but I get why you aren't. Whoever made the decision for you to leave it's best for you. Anyone with class would leave and you have that in spades. Your life will be fabulous while we watch the Richards sisters spin and spin trying to prove how great they are when we know they are in a world they don't belong. For the record, we all know Kyle did indeed say the comment the first year that she denied with vigor for a whole season. It's so painfully obvious. Someone wrote on Kyle's blog that she isn't as special as her Mother led her to believe and whilie that's harsh, it is most definately true. They ended up in the big circles because Kim lucked out when she was young landing roles, but Kyle spends her time trying to be relevant in Hollywood. SO sad for her age and we'll wtach her for another season chasing,,,and chasing. You go Camille! Stay away from that Taylor person. What an awful human being writing that book. Don't let your family anywhere NEAR her.Kyle and she should be best friends,, bird of a feather....

Couldn't find your blog----glad it seems to have returned----so sad you're leaving---but at least you're doing that with class too !! good luck to you-----it's Bravos loss----and obviously many of us will miss you---maybe someday we'll hear the real story about ''why' the parting betwen you & Bravo---best to you & you're family---

So sorry to hear you are leaving the show... you are a breath of fresh air... I just wish the Richard sisters would leave, they are both sad pathetic people, but I guess that is not going to happen, because they are both talentless, fame hungry TV wannabies, and will say and do anything to be in front of the camera... even that Kyle thinks it is HER show...... ( you should read the reviews on Amazon about that Kyles book....that is what people really think of her....Pathetic.... )

NO...NO...NO...Say it ain't SO! Please don't go Camille. I'm sad that I won't be able to see you on the Housewives of Bev Hills. I truly admire your courage and respect your decision to leave. I'm just being selfish because I want to see more. You see, I'm one of those viewers who didn't like you at first because I believed that you were hiding behind Mr. Grammer's pomp and circumstance. But when I saw you hit rock bottom, I saw the real Camille come out and she hasn't left since. She's kind, caring, compassionate and a Rottweiler when it comes to her friends and or family. Just know that you converted me and you will truly be missed!!! Wishing you the best in your future endeavours!!!

Oh Camille, i hate that ur not coming back next season! it was so nice to have such a sweet person as urself balance out some of these nut jobs! i understand though, i wouldnt want to be around the likes of the Richard sisters! i was hoping Taylor and Kim would not be coming back, im still hoping! Kim needs to get her life in order, she has alot of work to do on herself and maybe she could come back later when she is TRULEY better. Taylor on the other hand, out of respect for Russell's family needs to NOT be on the show any longer. I also can not watch if the bullying of Brandi continues...i hope they will replace u with someone who is friends with Brandi cause the girl needs someone to support her !!! Her friend Linda would be a nice replacement, since she dated Adriennes husband! Now that would be good! Anyways, i wish u all the wonderful things life has to offer! u will be sorley missed. Take Care and God Bless!!!!

Unbelievable that Camille isn't coming back.. WTF was bravo thinking.

She was worth the money!! Her house alone was worth the money.

Let me guess you got Kim, Taylor and Kyle, Adrienne for the price of Camille.
So we get the watch Kim and Taylor move into a homeless shelters or just shack up with different guys. Or are we going to see Kyle running around name dropping her rich sister or Adrienne just trying to get camera time?

You get what you pay for and Brandi and Lisa and Camille where the star.

Please don't leave the show!!! I think we need to preotest to BRAVO!! RHOBH will not be the same with out Camille.

Camille,

You are my favorite housewife by far. You have experienced such a horrible few years and yet you came out on top. You are such a beautiful person and I love that everyone got to see the real side of you this season. I think it is horrible that you are quitting because you bring the only real to this show. I hope that you get millions and millions from that a hole, he deserves the worst karma ever, creep!!
You do a great job as a mother and I am sure your children look up to you. Please reconsider coming back to the show because you are irreplaceable.

Deana.Ps...I hope you get this message, Bravo please forward to Camille.

Camille -I just read that you will not be coming back for the next season? I did hope you would do another season. You have really come into your own on the show, and it was a real pleasure watching this past season...I understand your reasons are you do not want your personal life "Out There" and I respect that for you and any of the other woman who choose to leave the show for that reason, it must be very hard to have your personal life spread all over...So I hope you change your mind, you will be missed. BUT I do understand your reasons and don't blame you at all...Best of luck to you!!

Camille... I will miss you!! I don't think I can take a season without you. I dread watching Adrienne, Taylor and Kim. I actually tape it so I can fast forward through their pitiful drama. You deserve the best life possible, so enjoy and know you have fans who admire you and will miss you.

Camille, I am so sad you will not be back. I have liked you from the beginning. You have a good heart and a quick wit. I wish you the best for the future and continue to make your children your first priority. Live with no regrets. Take care!

Hello Camille,
Sad to read you got da boot. You are a class act and with Lisa, the only one in this show who are.
I really hope if you're not here that Bravo PTB will come to their senses and get the psycho liar Taylor out of the show too. She's too painfull to watch.

Thank you for your great style and calling her out on her BS.
You will be missed !

Hi Camille!

I just want you to know how much I loved you on the show. You were my favorite!!! You showed so much poise and grace during the second season, and I believe you finally showed the "real" you to your fans. I have to admit that I HOPE Bravo comes to their senses, and you will return for a third season. It just won't be the same without you. You seem like a great mother, friend, and human being, and I wish you all the BEST!!!!!! It would be great if you got your own show...I would definitely watch!!!

Camille, Viewers and Fans:
I forwarded the following to Andy Cohen, I also hope he passes my comments along to Bravo:

I just read that Camille will not be returning to RHoBH. I really hope that something could be worked out. If anybody that should not be returning is Taylor and Kim, they both need to work out their personal problem. They are too serious for TV.

Hi Camille,

Heard you wont be back for the next season. I will miss ya. Best to you in all you endeavors!

Camille,

You are my favorite. I know you were somewhat bragging about your wealth last season but I also sympathize what you had to go through with the divorce.

You are such a pretty woman, I know without being around you that you have a good heart. I think you really didn't need Kelsey to stand out on your own.

I liked the balance of softness and honesty that you showed this past season. That to me is how a Beverly Hills housewife should be. Not snobby, always look nice, but also not living in a fantasy land.

Just like my comment to Adrienne, I would like Bravo to feature what the rich Beverly Hills housewives do for charity, especially during these hard times. A lot of us common people can't reconcile in our minds how we struggle to pay our bills and then there are these uber rich people on the other side of the country. I know it's not your fault that you're blessed with wealth and privileges but it will be refreshing to see you guys blend with the common people through your charity work.

Go girl! Any man who captures your heart is lucky to have you.

AnnaBelle

Camille,
I truly hope that Bravo brings you back on the show this year, you are one of my favorites! Iv'e always liked you on the show. I think that there was a lot of jealousy the first year by the other housewives and that once they got to know you they liked you. I mean,look in the mirror, you are gorgeous and your figure is unbelievable! When I was younger I remember seeing you as a dancer for
beautiful and in shape today. I wish that you would make a dance work-out video. I would love to know exactly what you do to stay in shape and would definitely buy a fun, up to date, dance workout cd.(At least just think about it).
As for RHOBH I hope that they keep the original cast mates. It's important for viewers to see how each person on the show has dealt with the tragedy of last year differently, because that is life. To ignore it as if it never happened (and bring in new people just to make the show " FLUFFY")would be a shame.This show could potentially save someones life!

you are a wonderful woman with a big heart and good things will come to you. By the way good riddance of your leathery looking ex. cant stand him.

I have to tell you that I loved you this season Camille,
Bravo finally showed your true self. What a breath of fresh air! I honestly don't think I could have performed much better than you did all season. Especially with all the childish antics that took place. For women with so much money to behave in such childish fashion. Very poor behavior for young girls to watch by some this season. I have maybe a 100th of your income and yet behave more mature than most of your counter parts. Camille, I typically don't watch these types of shows, but with what Kelsey did to you drew me to the show. It was almost as if I wanted to make sure you and the kids would be ok. How crazy is that? I watched Kelsey in Cheers for years. Actually Kelsey leaving you Camille was honestly the best thing that ever happened to you. Isn't it funny how we don't know what’s missing in our lives until it happens and we find it?! Kudos to you Camille for toughing it out and taking the high road. Clearly a class act. I don't wish Kelsey failure ONLY because it would affect you and the kids financially.
KUDOS to you Camille. I wish you the best in your future life endeavors.
With Kindest of Regards,
Friends and support in Columbia SC!

Camille, I identified with you in season 1 and could see why you felt and said things you did, I have to say you have shown the world this season your true colours as a human. That is why you are the most popular housewife around the water cooler talk at work lol.. Im glad things are working out for you and the children. I wish you all the success and happiness you deserve, plese dont sell yourself short. We love watching you. You seem to be a great mother and a genuine friend. success and happiness :)

Hi Camille.
Like some of the others we also didn't really care for you in season one. But you were so positive and witty and still very strong even after everything you have been through on this season. We wish you the best!! And hope you find the peace and happiness you deserve! Hope your back next season cause the show won't be the same without you!!

There are rumors stating you may not be back next season, I hope this is false.
I hope you return and we see more of your friendships with Brandi and Lisa.

Camille,
I always thought I was a non-judgemental person. When I read your Bio I was amazed at all the things you have accomplished. It's inspiring. At first I thought you were just a pretty face that got lucky marrying a famous TV star. I am sorry for making that ignorant assumption. When I watched the reunion show and the subject of spousal abuse came up, I was struck by the way you identified abuse as not only physical, but emotional as well. I also have been in situations where I have been severely criticized by my husband for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, or laughing at an "inappropriate" moment. Over the years the emotional abuse has escalated. He has called me every horrible name a woman can be called. The worst of the worst. I basically am a shell of what the woman I once was. Now he calls me an "old hag". I am 47 and am often told I look younger. I know in my heart someday I will have a future without him or his abuse. I have stayed in this situation to keep my 2 children in a "stable" environment. What a mistake that was! I have been sharing a room with my 13 year old daughter for over a year, which should be her own room. I simply cannot stay in the same bed as him, or even be that close to him. What was once "our bedroom" is now "his bedroom". I am now virtually trapped in this marriage with him because of finances. I have a college degreee, and was completely independent when I met him. Anyhow....sorry to go on and on, but I just wanted to let you know that I can relate to your situation regarding the way your former husband treated you. No woman deserves that, and I admire your courage.

Camille,

I so hope it's true, just read that your custody battle is settled. I remember you saying it could take years, so I am very happy for you that things seem to have settled down. Maybe now you can have peace and happiness!!! XOXO

Camille,
Thank you for being a great housewife this year!
Thank you for not falling for Taylors crap! She worked you all into a tizzy over how mean Lisa is to her, then she grabbed at the chance to be Lisa's friend, because she really is all about who has money & power & how can I attach myself to them! Don't get near her, she has a way apparently that doesn't come through on camera to really be sugary sweet to you ladies & really get you all moved by her sad stories! I believe she is beginning to feel entitled to the rich life, & doesn't want to do a hard days work!
Anyway, you are a joy to see on this show, & have a great break!

You were really awesome this season Camille! I really hated you in the first season, especially ur psychic friend but this season you made an incredible comeback and you really redeemed yourself! I really love your energy this season its so positive and relaxing! More power to you Camille!! Youre one of my favorite housewives now (Next to Lisa and Brandi)!! p.s. I dont like Kyle. She's a mean bully who's stuck in high school

Camille you are awesome and so is Brandi !!!!!!! I think you and Brandi are honest and Beautiful!!! How dare Kyle say Brandi dresses like a slut. Camille you ROCK congrats. on your new love interest and having Brandi to be friends with . Looks like FUN!!!

Camille--I'm posting something I wrote on Kyle's blog to yours...it's my "i'm sorry" to you. I absolutely LOVE you this season. You friendship with Brandi is so fun to watch and I wish you all the best.

[to kyle]
i just watched season 1's reunion. After this season, I had a whole new perspective while viewing. Camille called you out first--you are a bully...Kim even admitted you are. I feel so bad that the viewers (including myself) attacked Camille last season. You were acting caddy towards Camille from the beginning and this season was Brandi's turn.

Camille, got to be honest with you here, on the first season I took Kyle's side. After the second season and hearing what you had been going through I totally understand where all your anger and hurt came from and I believe Kyle was completely out of order with you and so was Taylor.

I just want to say I think Kelsey Grammar is an utter moron and you deserve 10x better than him anyway. (Fraiser isn't even a good TV show in England anyway)

Haha nevertheless I hope you and your children will be happy together and I can see in the second season you are so much happier than in the first so getting rid of the cross dresser was a good thing :)

Oh and by the way. DD is a good friend. Keep her close xoxo

Love you Camille!! I liked you the first season, totally did not agree with all the negativity you received. I think Kelsey did you a favor. I wish we could see your kids on the show. You're absolutely beautiful. Be careful of Taylor, she's very manipulating ( and be careful Kyle, she's just a mean girl). Hope you come back for season 3.

Very rarely do I write posts, but I need to say just how much Camille has become one of my top faves! Last season I really kinda despised her, mostly from that episode with her friend Alison at the dinner party. But this season she's become my fave, she's so classy and handles herself so well! I can only imagine what she's going through with her personal life but what an incredibly strong and powerful woman you are Camille! I'm praying you're back for the next season!!!

Camille... Please say you will be back for season 3. You were so fun to watch and I can't wait to see more about you and your love life!!

You are my favorite. I really hope you come back for season 3.

Be careful of Taylor! It seems she tries to 'play' people who show concern towards her. . . Your situation and hers are oceans apart. You and Taylor are very different people and have different motivations.

I wish you all the best. I will miss you & hope to see you next season.

You are class all the way . And that's the honest truth.

Camille,
I think that Kelsie did YOU A FAVOR!!! You seem like a much happier person, and a Better person. Good Luck to you and your children and I wish you and your family much happiness. Sometimes going through the hardest situations is what leads us to brighter things. I feel this is the case for you Camille. As for public humility; there is nothing for you to ever be ashamed of, Kelsie is the midlife crisis that screams the word "CREEPER"~~ Really....you seem to have more a future for yourself without him.

Camille, you are the best. Stick with Brandi and Lisa. I don't think there are any other trustworthy women on the show. You go GIRL!!!

Loved you this season, hope you come back!

Don't leave. and don't back down. Also I don't believe you intentionally changed from last season. I think people were just fooled by Kyle and your psychic friend.

Dear Camille,

You and Adrienne were always my favs and still are. The first season made you look bad and although I didn't appreciate kissing your "boy" friend on the lips and the nanny comments, I knew you weren't the person I thought you were. I know this may sound stupid, but when you were still married to "that guy" you and "that guy" went on the Howard Stern radio show before the show went off the public airwaves. It was clear to me during those interviews you were a decent, humble and thoughtful human being. "That guy" even said stated you were a wonderful person and you were the reason why he was still alive.

Peace to you and your family.

Promama

Hi, I will miss you as I read you are leaving. You were so strong this year and last year you really had difficulty with a very strong group of women.
Taylor has her own demons to deal with but I hope she realizes a TV therapist is not a rehabilitation center.

You were so goaded into speaking to Taylor in the way you did. Taylor needed that. You are not responsible for Russell or Taylor. She is. Why, if the treatment was so bizarre, did she go back and allow her daughter to be in that? We will probably never know, but she has to live with that. Not you.

Good luck to you, you were such a pleasure to get to know, a bit, this year.

We enjoyed your active lifestyle and the fact you kept your children out of the camera's limelight. Good mother!!!!!

Camille, I am so glad that you did get out of a bad marriage. You knew, inside, that it was going South. We do know that when we are in one. Now, you are learning who you are. I think and it is just my opinion that you are glowing. I know the hurt is not over, but I wish you the best as you really did help Kelsey when no one wanted to hire him. I remember those days.

Now as you leave this Drama and it is so hard to watch now that Taylor repeatedly details everything she lived with. I don't know what is true but I don't want to hear it and I hope she does get into rehab. She was not well thru out this Season.

Kim is a special person who has been hurt. I find it hard that her family doesn't understand that drunks usually hurt themselves more than anyone else. Why Kyle and Muricio had to use her to put on camera in Hawaii just changed my whole opinion of both of them. I will not be watching next Season, I cannot. I suppose Lisa will leave, she has too much class to be on that show. Adrienne attacked her reputation and possibly her business, that was sad. When you are asked to make a statement, why wouldn't you tell Lisa?
I didn't understand that when you told Lisa that ROL told you that, why didn't you call Lisa and ask her?

Lisa is a class act and a reputation of hard work, just as you have a reputation of hard work in your husband's named Production Co., I do know what you did. You are a very talented woman and you will land on your feet.
They are your children and belong to you.

I wondered about DD and her drinking and if I were you, I would be careful of those around you who drink and need to defend you...........you don't need it, walk tall, very, very tall, you were given nothing in this life and you know it.

God bless you and your family, especially your lovely Mom...........
