PRAISE THE LORD. . .MY DAUGHTER IS CANCER FREE! Thank you everyone for all of your prayers for my Briana, as God has answered them. Although she is still having some serious side affects from the surgery -- her biopsies turned out benign, which is the best news we could have received. Again, my sincere gratitude and thanks for everyone that has lit a candle for her and prayed for her healing. I am forever blessed and grateful to all of you.
Watching Tamra's divorce become final on this week's episode made me very sad. Watching all the flashbacks of her and Simon when they were married made me realize how fortunate they were to have their family intact and to be happy with one another. When a marriage comes to an end, it not only affects the immediate family, it affects everyone that is close to them.
Vikki, You really do make everything about you. Telling your daughter who is on her way to serious and uncertain surgery that your concern is more important because she should "ask when she is a mother". Do you hear yourself?
Do you ever hear yourself? What are you doing with Brooks? That is the most uncomfortable, artificial "relationship". You are placing a low value on yourself jumping at the first trout that swims by.
You talk about what is and is not biblical. Have you asked God what he wants for you? Have you asked yourself what you want for you? In what way does Brooks fulfill any part of your future?
Now that your daughter is cancer free, are you going to live up to what you said and be nice to everyone! You have said this before on past shows, and yet, you do not folloow thru. Maybe you need time to reflect on your life, maybe you should leave the show!
Hello Vicki,
Don't worry about your looks or your nose. You are beautiful at age 50.
Stay positive, focus on your bright future, keep your family and friends close and don't worry about the negative comments that come your way from people that do not impact your life.
You are a good person, who always tries to do the right thing.
Vicki is a pip!! I love her...so glad about your daughter!! Good thing you didn't do the mud run...Slade grabbing his sack and wearing chick shorts was a barf bag moment...his story about bike riding is a crock of poop too! Can't find anything on that subject at all...liar, liar chick shorts on fire!! WOO HOO!!!
your so defensive of Brooks all the time, I would think after being through a couple of marriages you would of entered a relationship with eyes wide open, we shall see
You just couldn;t do it, could you? I really thought you were going to have a nice informative blog, but then you had to go and slam Gretchen. Why?! You just turned 50, so let's hope you grow up a little.
why would u ever compare Don to Brooks??? First of all there is NO comparasion!!! Of coarse when there is a new relationship, people cant get enough of each other, but believe me girl, its gonna fade! its just the facts of life! But u will soon find out that Brooks is way more slimey than Slade, just look at all the judgements against him. Those are facts, not opinions! u better be careful with that one...and have respect for Don and not compare him thats just wrong!
Vicki, The most important thing is that Briana is cancer-free. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying it is a great relief for your (and her) fans who truly care. I think you are amazing as a business woman. As a mother, you're a bit controlling. However, your kids obviously understand it and are less bothered than we viewers. Sometimes, you seem more upset about affect their issues have on you than them. Hopefully, you'll be more responsive their needs now. It's interesting that you feel the need to defend Brooks. He gives off an odd vibe. The parallels between Slade and him are numerous. Hopefully, I'm mistaken about the feeling I have regarding his authenticity toward you. He seems really fake regarding his undying "love" for you. There's something unnatural about him. Conversely, Donn seemed to really adore you, except he didn't please you. Frankly, they have a similar appearance. You must be attracted to older looking, bald men.
Vicki, One question, have you ever written a blog and not finished it with a plug for your company? Seeing how well you manage your life, I would never entrust you with my money.
Vicki, so happy for Briana and you. I can only wish nothing but the best for you now. I know you want happiness and love and hope this gentleman is the one that will and can give it to you. Good luck, to all.
Bless you and your family! I'm so glad Brianna is going to be ok! This episode touched my heart how close you are with your daughter and how much of a wonderful mother you are. I lost my mom to breast cancer when I was 11 and I never had a mother growing up so I missed out on the bond between mother and daughter. I do have a wonderful father and I am blessed to have him and we have a wonderful relationship! :)
Seriously Vicki....there you again...."Did she really hurt her ankle, or did she do it to get out of the run"....Why did you include that...? Quit being so darn jealous of her, she seems like she would be fun to hang out with......
Vicki, I was so happy to hear of Bri's news and that cancer has been ruled out! God works in mysterious ways. I hope that you keep that in mind when dealing with Gretchen and Slimy Slade. He is not worth the trouble and energy you put into reacting to him and his life. Put that to bed and let anything he says roll off your back. My dad once said that if something isn't going to change the outcome of your life don't fret over it....just some words of wisdom I wanted to pass along to you. Playing that kind of game only makes you look worse and him better. Any viewer with intelligence can see he is a dirtbag, you stating the obvious makes you look weak and even jealous. Happy belated 50th birthday! God Bless!!
You sure don't act like you are blessed. To be honest, you always seem petty and mean. You need to reassess your relationships with everyone including Brooke. You need to apologize to Gretchen and to Slade. Your hypocricy is obvious and you don't seem to care whom you hurt and what you say as long as you get your point across. You really have become sad and petty and to be honest, I wouldn't miss you if you didn't come back next season. You are the stick in the eye of all the other women, who seem to get along fine as long as you are not around. I'm glad your daughter is healthy but even during that crisis, it was all about you and not about her. You are a narcisist and I'm glad Don moved on. You need to get used to living alone because if you don't change, that's how you will always be. You may want to be married but you don't want to work at it so it will fail like the last two. The difference between you and Tamra is that she is growing a learning and you think you know it all. I wish you luck but I still think you are so tacky promoting your company on Bravo's website. Tacky tacky tacky. And Desperate...
You have two great B's in your life: Brooks seems like a great guy. I thought he seemed great in the dinner scene, but boy oh boy I could imagine being nervous in such a situation. He's a good sport. And of course, your Briana. I have always adored her on the show; what a great girl and thank goodness she is okay. I hope she continues to heal and get stronger.
You made a great call avoiding psyscho I mean Sarah she was in full attack mode, what a child. Glad your daughter is ok!
Thank you, thank you and thank you again for simply putting your business in the very last paragraph. I actually read your entire blog for once!
So happy for Brianna and Happy belated birthday!
Vicki, haven't you realized by now that you are dating the Southern Slade??? Brooks has had child support isues and works as a consultant (your own words) so why is that acceptable work for him, but Slade is the scum of the earth when he does the exact same?!?! I'm not picking sides or being Team Slade or Team Brooks because I know none of you personally, just what is on tv. But can't you see what we the viewers see? They have very similar life circumstances, so maybe you could cut out the harping over Slades child support/employment issues? If you don't like him for other reasons, then use those to justify your behavior towards him, not the same ones you are so attracted to in your man. Smells too hypocritical. Either way, CONGRATS!!! on the great health news for Brianna; I'm a mom myself so I can only imagine how you were feeling during that time.
Vicki, So happy to hear that Brianna is going to be okay. Having lost two relatives to cancer I am very happy to know you don't have to deal with that pain. I hope you had a nice birthday and am happy you and brooks are doing well! Stay safe and God Bless.
Vicki, I can't stand looking at you when you were having a conversation with Brooks in the restaurant. You just look so fake. You are over acting when you're in front of the camera. I just don't believe you. You're so overly dramatic on everything you say when the camera is on....OMG
Poor Vicki, you're being played. Brooks has a hidden agenda and your Narcissistic Personality Disorder obscures the truth.
vicki, why do you always have to be such a "DEBBIE DOWNER" all the time? i really wish that you leave the show!!! and when you do leave please take ALEXIS with you!!!
Vicki, you are such a drama queen. Your daughter has a thyroid condition, nothing more. My god! How much attention do you need?
Wow! Attacking Gretchen in the Blog so quickly?? Was your A$$ really bleeding or did you just want to get out of the dinner last season? hmmmm... When Gretchen fires back for your comment about her hurting her ankle don't cry like a five year old! Also, if it wasn't hurt they would have never bandaged it up and hauled her off. They would have let her keep running....get over yourself "I will never do a mud run" queen. I really hope you end up with Danielle and Kelly Bensimon on some island. The show is great, but it would be better without you...
You strike me as more and more out of touch with reality. How, in 1 blog, you can discuss how blessed you are that Briana is cancer-free and also do something so trivial as to suggest that Gretchen faked her ankle injury.
Very happy for your daughter. I wish Bravo would replace you with her. You are not a stable individual.
Vicki....first of all...you do NOT look like "miss piggy"...that is so unbelievably cruel and only said to try to bring you down and hurt you! You look incredibly beautiful....and when you said you turned 50....(Happy Birthday to you!)....well, lets just say that there are most women out there that only wish they could look half as great as you do at 50! You surpass them all! You are so hilarious and cute on this show and your quirkiness is the main reason my daughter and I have continued to watch it every season. I love that you dont try to compete with the women....like in the mud race...which was an insane idea to begin with! I love your sound and practical advice...and when Tamara announced that she would like to open her own business, my daughter and I both looked at each other and laughed and then my daughter said...."wait until Vicki hears about this...she will tell her that this isnt the right time in the economy to try to start her own business."....and you would be right! you are the best and most fun of all on this show!
I think he was drunk, everytime hes been on camera he has "slurred" his words. He has the "flushed" appearance of a drinker. If you want a man in your life fine, but don't settle.
I am kind of confused...who is Sarah? I am glad that you tried to walk away. Oh my! I have never seen someone want to fight so much. Good job in atempting to leave a bad situation.
I am glad your daughter is recovering.
Just needed to say that at the 80's party that I have never seen you lose it. Please do not do that again. Slade is a bad man, so don't let him get to you. He really knew how to play you, and you fell for it. Be strong.
I was thinking. " she is actually going to get through a blog and not plug her business". Then there it is at the end...ugh! This is to talk about the show, not free advertising! That was quite the embarrassing dinner between you and Brooks. Had you just given him a peck rather than making a big production by shaking your head endlessly and saying no PDA it would have been done with in 1 second. Are you sure you are 50 or 15? I think that you had a lot to do with Tamara's divorce. Seems the only time they fought was when you got involved. You appear to take divorce lightly....it is not! You get married for life not to end when you get bored. I think Brooks was drunk and you are covering for him. he rubs me the wrong way. Sending you multiple cards per day....you can't see that is overkill? he is trying too hard and you are falling for it. you had a great guy and you blew it.
Congratulations with Briana's clean bill of health. Cancer is a very mean and scary disease. I lost my father 1 year ago this past week to cancer and the most difficult thing that I have been through. I pray that she stays healthy. One thing i must say..why must you always end your blogs by plugging your business? Your blogs would be much more enjoyable and believable if you weren't shamelessly plugging your company. Kind of tacky.
it looks like the cruise is what you needed.i am glad you and lex are becomming friends.you both have the lord in common and good things can happen.can not wait to watch the so called camping trip in 2 weeks with you and your daughter and alexis.god bless you girls.so happy for bri.

Please tell your wonderful daughter I send her happiness and health. What a relief for you all. Now Brianna can heal and go on with her life. She is so calm and sensible she must be a fine nurse.
Vicki, I am so glad for your family that your daughter is cancer free, thank God. That being said, you just had to take a shot and get in a dig at Gretchen, didn't you? You just could not keep it positive could you? Way to go, SMDH!! And maybe if you had compromised with Donn a little bit you would still be married. Oh, but I did notice at the end of your blog you did not try to sell yourself as much as you usually do, a little improvement there, I guess.
You just couldn't help yourself could you, Vicki? You could not go without saying something negative about Gretchen. Grow up.
So happy for Brianna's good news. She is awesome.
Brooks was drunk. Period. You don't slur when you're nervous.
Stop bad-mouthing Gretchen and Slade. It doesn't become you.
Vicky, you look ridiculous with your man....love tank, puleeeze. Try being a nicer person and stop being so jealous of everyone else.
Always an agenda Vicki. I remember when you called Alexis "trash" and her husband something to the effect of a "stinky goon" [sic]. It's all good now, huh?
Good job getting your dig in on Gretchen. Now don't you dare dig back Gretchen- insulting Vicki when she's insulted you is UNACCEPTABLE!
First off... I'm very happy for Briana! Yeah.
But come on Vicki. You're so quick to judge people - especially Gretchen. She just wanted to get out of the race? You can't let a moment or an opportunity slip by to pounce on her. It was bad enough watching you fret over yourself while driving your daughter to her surgery (totally dissing her feelings and concerns). But your immediate thought with anything regards to Gretchen (and Alexis for that matter) is to be critical - and then make that "assumption" some kind of fact.
I can only hope... as you watch these episodes with the rest of us... that you see the SIMILARITIES between Brooks and Slade. At least the editors of your show feel that way - we know that there is bias in the editing to present the "best" story. But while you slam Slade, you make excuses for Brooks.
Personally, Vicki - I think your "real" issue with Slade is that he once dated Lori. You can't get over the whole Lori / Jo thing and you just continue to look for other non-issues. "Do unto others as you would have done to you." Tamara has the right attitude. Kill him with kindness. Positive energy is better for you than negative (which you tend to swim in).
You once stated, "Donn didn't fight for me", did you fight for him? Relationships involve TWO people and are a two way street....not just ABOUT YOU and how YOU feel! What do YOU do to make your partner feel special...I would guess nothing. What a pity.
Vicki, I have a pug nose...and I was called Ms. Piggy in elementary school. (and oinked at too-nice, huh?). It just goes to show the level of humor of Slade..elementary school level. I've never heard of a mature and kind adult who makes fun of someone's appearance like that. Especially if that someone is a do-nothing hanger-on with no real career of his own. Anyway, at this point in my life (and I'm your age), I just don't care. I have great friends and family who love me just the way I am. So, my advice, let it go. You are beautiful the way you are - a unique creation of God. My feeling is..if I'm getting plastic surgery, it's not to alter my face, but just make it younger!! I certainly wouldn't let anyone break my nose to fix it, especially after 50 years living with it! :-)
vicky . your so funny and because im from the uk i have not seen these episode about your daughter but i am so glad that your daughter is cancer free i love brina she is amazing i think you are funny and very smart but sometime you do go a bit over the top but thats you and i am not going to judge the way you are , everyone is different ,, you have been so nice to Tamra and i dont see a problem with your relationship , well on the episodes that i have been watching ,. i love you and don you make a great couple xx





Way to make even Tamra's divorce about you.
And I'm sorry, but Brooks's "c'mon, give it to me, give it to me!" was borderline predatory. He came off seriously creepy.
