Is it just me or has no-one else noticed how this argument evolved? Remember when Bethanny wanted to make up with Jill and made several attempts, Jill was not into it. Then when Bethanny gave up and stopped trying, all of a sudden Jill wanted to forgive her. Maybe it's because Bethanny has her own show now and Jill wants payback???

I am doing research for my college paper, thanks for your brilliant points, now I am acting on a sudden impulse.

I always root for the underdog.i think theresa is SUPER TACKY and classless and caroline needs to dro the drama and act her age. I am so team danielle

Did anyone notice the first thing Jill said after she learned Kelly was going to be in Playboy? "I want go to the Mansion" enough said.

Hi Teresa!

I totally disagree with this blog! Every single housewive, whether New Jersey, New Your City, etc. is a Bethenny. How? It needs Bravo TV. The fact that you are even blogging as a guest on the New York City Housewives and happy about it tells me a whole lot about you. After your table flipping tantrum, and I am sure you knew that it would get your excellent airtime, it does not surprise me that you are on Jill's team. I sense jealousy towards Bethenny.

What ever happened to friendships?... Anyway?... I LOVE ALL of the housewives In Different ways.

I relate to everyone.
I may not be rich but.. I have been there. Bicking over the things that YOU ALL CAN'T & CAN Change
Shouldn't be an Issue. Are you Kidding Me ????????????

Realize what you have in your life instead of others!

Did anyone really listen to what Bethenny said to Jill on that message. She said you need to get a new hobby instead of always saying mean things about everyone. Jill took that the wrong way and told everyone that Bethenny just told her to get a hobby. I love watching Jill, but she is more in the wrong on this one. She needs to forgive and forget and Bethenny needs to forgive and forget. If Jill has something against Bethenny she needs to tell Bethenny and then be done with it.

First let me say I am a fan of all the different shows, NJ, NY, Atlanta, and CA. I do enjoy NY the most. I am for team Jill because Bethany has been verbally abusive to Jill in the last season as well. She wanted to poke her eye out with a fork because she was asking her about her life. Of course Bethany verbally abused her with her snappy comments. Than she got annoyed when she was apartment shopping with Jill. Honestly, Jill should have walked away from her back in the last season. She didn't because she was a true friend. Now if this is how Bethany treats her friends, what would she do to a non-friend. She should be honest and apologize. LuAnn was just being a friend to help Bethany this season at the fashion show. But she lashed out at her just as she did before at the when she went for drinks. Fame and fortune comes and goes, friends last a life time if you know how to be a friend. I think apology is owed to Jill. Texts, emails and voice mails are used to remind us of the hurt. Also, these are just to justify the hurt someone feels. So Bethany if you hit the wall at 90 miles an hour with fury than you hit the wall at 110 miles with sorrow. Honestly without the connections you would have taken longer to achieve all your goals. Remember you can't take back the hurtful comments, but you can learn to be a better person by not treating people the nasty comments.

Teresa is absolutely my favorite...great blog, well said, can't wait for NEW JERSEY TO RETURN!

Hello beautiful Theresa, I so miss you and the NJ housewives. I love the head shots of you when you talk to the camera; you always look breathtaking! My husband thinks that you are the "foxiest" of all of the housewives of all the shows. i agree and am not jealous because you are so nice.
Also, I would love to know what you named your new baby girl. I emailed you that you might call her Francesca because I thought it might go with the other beautiful names of your beautiful girls.

I definitely think Bethanny was wrong... Jill is a great person and bethanny has no excuse to have treated her that way. I think Bethanny needs to step back and realize true friends are hard to find, and what is success if there is no-one there to enjoy it with. As far as Luann, I feel bad for her situation, but it was kind of nervy when Bethanny drove way out her way to go see her and Luann said I forgive you for being late. Wow Countess that's not classy at all.

You are so RIGHT on, go Team Jill:)

HOW MUCH TO I LOVE YOU!!!
You are SPOT ON with all your comments Teresa!!!! Are you SURE you aren't from New York? LOL.
I'm looking forward to reading all your blogs.
New York Loves Teresa!
MWAH!

OMgosh! You totally read my mind --- I sooo agree with you and just finish writing Jill the same thing (almost) -- I do feel that B. used J. and sending flowers is lame if you are that greatful. Jill is not needy, she just likes to be in on it, whatever it is. I think B. needs a reality check honey!

And yes! tacky to the max with her robe and car --- TACKY!!! lol

TG I think you are right and umm... excuse me but when are you all coming back??

I have to say I can see both sides of the Bethenney/Jill dispute. Jill is very caring, and she likes helping people. When Ramona told B last year that Jill likes the under dog she was right. But somwetimes when people have helped you, which Bethenney admits all the time, they feel you owe them back, which can get a little sticky. I think that between B plugging her book, starting a new relationship, she just didn't have the time she used to have, and Jill got her feelings hurt. I do think B shouldn't have told Jill to get a hobby, she should have apologized but I am hoping they can work it out.

Hi Teresa! Love, Love, Love you on New Jersey and must say your house is FABULOUS ! I agree she needs to remember what all Jill did for her. She tells her to get a hobby, but Jill didn't turn her back and tell her to "Get A Life" when she needed help. I like her better without Bethany. Can't wait to see you Jersey girls. Take care and God Bless.

Teresa, i just have to say I love you! You are so real and I loved the "table moment" I used to allow people to say whatever they wanted to me and then I started speaking up for myself, and in that moment when the the table flipped you were telling people listen to me. I agree with your assessment of Bethsny, she has what she wants and she has dropped everyone, she acts as though she has never done anything wrong. Can't wait for "Real Housewives of NJ" and from one Jersey girl to another, keep being you.

Teresa, I'm not taking sides but, you are making comments about Bethenny, in reality Bethenny can hold her own. Bethenny's tiny apartment belongs to her, off of HER blood, sweat and tears, NOT a man. Get a Trade.

I'm reading these comments and everybody says your (totally dead-on) assessment of Bethenny is biased because she said nasty things about you. They're saying you don't like Bethenny and are being mean because of it. Well, Bethenny and I never had a fight and (to my knowledge) Bethenny never said anything mean about me BUT I could have signed my name to your blog because it's exactly what I think of that ingrate. A few of your comments might not have been right on the mark (she didn't grow up poor) but her treatment of Jill and Bobby shows what a no-class, no-heart, nasty person she really is. She spent the last 2 seasons whining about not having a guy and being jealous of everyone else who had one and then finally reels in a sucker and drops everybody. No, Teresa, I don't think you were mean at all in the things you said about Bethenny. You were just observant.

Good thinking and I like how you summized it, however Bethany got herself there. Jill's connections would be helpful, but Bethany was the go - getter willing to do the leg work and make everything happen. You can't say Jill "got her there" that is demeaning Bethanny's hard work. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink.

I agree with everything you said Teresa! I googled the comment that Bethany said about her PETA photo being unairbrushed and it's hillarious! Google search will also turn up the original photo and it is crystal clear that the photo was majorly airbrushed. Bethanny in the original photo looks like she's 45 years old and the airbrushed photo makes her look like she's 35. I also feel that Bethanny has benefited from her friendship with Jill and have been an ungrateful friend. I'm for Team Jill all the way!!

Fabulous blog Teresa! Way to tell it like it is! I agree with you on everything, especially the naked Peta photo shoots!

Teresa...you are so REAL!!!! This blog has to be one of the BEST blogs ive read in housewife history. Bethany definitely used Jill up and threw her away once she got what she needed. I think Jill has the biggest heart of the NYC housewives and is just a naturally giving person. She loves to help people and sometimes not everyone deserves her help and Bethenny was definitely one of those people. For Bethenny to talk about everyone elses problems as if her life is perfect is the biggest joke. Just because things are going well for her now doesnt mean it will remain that way. Karma is definitely a bitch and I think Bethheny Frankel will meet her soon! Love you Teresa! YOU ROCK!!!

Before Jill met Bethany....Bethany managed to get HERSELF a reality show. DID you all forget Bethany was the star of Martha Stewart- Apprentice. Bethany also got herself the gig on Housewives.......Bethany is self made...sure she had helped but so did Bill Gates and Obama.

Finally, a little bit of honesty. Maybe if Bethanny took a Ritalin and talked a little slower we'd be open to her side of the story. My feeling is that she talks so much and so fast because she has to cover up her coniving, opportunistic, mean, self-centered ways. Stop talking and thing about what you are, Bethanny.

Well said Teresa..Well said. I did not care much for you before but I love you now.. Well said.

Team Jill! Love the blog- right on point.

I would have to say that it has been about 20 years since Kelly has been 23! I believe she said she was 43 and that is why she was doing Playboy. She would have had to have her kids when she was about 13 if she was only 23 now!

You know, I really didn't like you on the show, BUT I must say that after reading this post, I think you are AWESOME!! I think you are frikking hysterical and your BLOG is FABULOUS! I hope to see this side come out during the season!! Congrats on gaining more fans from this post bc you truly are keeping it REAL!!

Wow, Teresa! What a great blog!! You really hit the nail on the head with all of your comments.

Sorry Teresa but you just came off as a hater to me in your blog. Stick to what you know T, which is to shop. Seriously. You have a beef with B because she said you were the least fave of the HW, ok got it. Get over it, your blog (proof read it next time) did not help in defending you. Team Bethenny all the way.

You pretty much summed it all up....perfectly!

WOW!!! Teresa it's obvious you don't really like Bethenny very much.
But I think you are exaggerating a bit on the picture you painted of her being down and out in NYC in the past before she meet Jill...
Maybe she was struggling and wasn't nearly as successful as the other's but she was up and coming and did know, and were friend's with many influential people... yes I'm sure Jill was a tramendous help to her and a wonderful friend, but to imply if it weren't for Jill she would be nothing, is just totally untrue...

As to what exactly happened between the two? I would say there are alway's two side to a story and somewhere in the middle lies the truth... When there is a lack of communication and misunderstanding's feelings get hurt. Both were very busy, Jill with her husband's illness, and Beth with her book tour, Skinny girl lanuch, and new boyfriend...
You shouldn't judge someone untill you have walked in their shoes...

ps bethenny was born with tons of advantages and chose not use them...do you know who her father is???

totally disagree with you. don't think i'll be watching hwnj...i used to think you were funny and seemed nice but when i watched "watch what happens" i thought it was rediculous how you wrote off your husbands drunk driving incident.

Teresa,

You are perceptive. I think Jill does mean well and Bethenny used her. Wish the cameras would show Bethanny's true colors though...she's a user and abuser. When u grow up with nothing, you claw your way to the top. Imagine her as a mom, scarey. U r great Teresa, a girl who realy does tell it like it is!

WOW!! Honey for someone who isn't "that into Bethenny" you, my dear are on a roll. Seriously? Being a guest blogger, you should really not spend the whole blog attacking one person. We all understand it's been a tough year for you, but come on. Women attacking other women is just as shameful as PETA using naked women to promote their hate. Bethenny is a beautiful, successful, witty woman. It's no different for her to do a shoot for PETA, than Kelly to do a spread for Playboy, as they both are degrading to women. Seriously, I couldn't believe your blog, you sound like some jealous little high school girl, trying to become part of the in the crowd. Whatever your beef is with Bethenny, own it and quite using your guest blog to only judge her. TEAM BETHENNY on this one.

True!!!!!!!!

So Jill made Bethanny? ok, right... please. They both have points. I think the friendship was real of both sides. If they could have worked it out on their own, without TV... or Bethanny has stayed single... it would have worked out.

I agree with you a 110%! I loved Jill & Bethenny last season. If it is true, that she didn't visit her over the summer that is terrible! they were best friends last season & that is definately not something you should do to your best friend (whose husband has cancer). I don't know about LuAnn though I never really liked her last season.

Teresa you are fabulous! Love, Love, Love you!!!!

I hate to see bad blood between Jill and Bethenny, but what can I say...Bethenny, you used Jill and now you are being completely ungrateful. Redeem yourself girl!!!

Ramona...love your jewerly!

I agree with Teresa about Betheney and it disappoints me; but I do love watching the show and am glad it's back. Love you Teresa; love you Betheney.

Teresa I have to be honest in saying that this was the best RHWO... blog I have ever read. I may not have agreed w/everything you said but you had logical reasons for your views and lets face it they were funny as hell. I can't wait until your next season!

Love you Teresa and can hardly wait for RHNJ to return. Regarding your comments about Bethenny and her photo shoot. The one thing you didn't mention and that cannot be denied by anyone is her beautiful body. Even if she was airbrushed you can't "airbrush away" the overall excellent shape she is in. So you may not like the ad, the photo, the whole style of the PETA campaign, but one has to give her props for putting herself out there~naked, with flaws~for all to see. How many times in any of our lives would we feel confindent enough to do that? (Regardless of the cause). I also found it interesting that you found her "SkinnyGIrl" car to be tacky. Wha?? I'd bet anything your husband has the name of his construction business on a truck or two. It's not like she drew it on herself with markers. She's a brand now and should promote it in any way she can. Most legitimate businesses find this to be a very effective way of advertising~I know, because we own our own business and we get calls all the time from clients that have seen our company vans on the road.
There is a lot to this girl, more than just her "weave" and you not giving credit where credit has been earned, seems petty and somewhat of a jealous nature.

Bethenny was a success before she met Jill and was on the show, how do you think she got to be on The Apprentice ?? She also has her own company just because she has a small apartment does not mean she is not successful half of the housewives that have been in big houses are short selling or in foreclosure or cant even pay rent!!Give me a break Bethenny is snarky but she is very smart and I think brains will always outweigh money you are spending that you don't really have in the first place...Teresa from one Jersey Girl to another you should never take public sides of an argument if it has nothing to do with you..

I read a book in college and it was all about gift- giving. The book said that everyone and anyone who gives a "gift" expects something in return.

Yes, Jill does not get a paycheck for "hooking" ppl up.. but she gets a chance to show off what/who she knows. I'm sure it's a high like ppl. who are shopaholics.

I love you Teresa but you've got to realise that Bethenny got alot of connections through the show too. Her product became very famous through Bravotv, Jill didnt contribute to everything. And I can bet you Jill is BORED out of her mind, she's got a team of people working for her at Zarin she doesnt even need to show up, Im sure she just shows up to get attention from the fans.
Ok so Bethenny drives a skinny girl car and wears a skinny girl robe, how many times have we seen the ZARIN store on our television screen last season. Puhlease.
Jill does need to get a hobby and some new friends.
She sent her daughter to fat camp.... I mean come on. She's not a good person Teresa. I love you though! You crack me up!

You are completely wrong on all of this! If Jill is your friend, you should just say I'm on Jill's side because she is my friend. That's it! Bethany had already been on a show before this one, she had a life she didn't have to Have Jill for anything. Get your facts straight.

It's no secret that you and Bethenny don't get along, so your opinion is not unbiased, I'd respect you more if you were honest about it. She said things about you in the press, and you two have been at it ever since. Be honest, have some integrity!

I don't remember Beth being "poor" from the beginning. She was a personal celeb chef that cooked natural foods. Last time I checked people lived in TINY expensive apartments in NYC. She still lives there while continuing being successful. She canNOT continue to thank Jill FOREVER. Beth needs to focus on her soon to be baby, getting married and her business. None of these girls were REAL friends to begin with so why fake the funk talking about "I need a hug" as if they're BFFs.
