Sonja Morgan: The Hostess Always Has the Upper Hand

Sonja Morgan: The Hostess Always Has the Upper Hand

Sonja thinks Dorinda and Luann are both being stubborn.

By Sonja Morgan

My arrival to the Hamptons starts out with a bang, or a splash I should say, with fabulous mermaid costumes from Dorinda. We may not be the most graceful mermaids, but I’m pretty impressed with our ability to get around in our fins on land. This is also the first time I’ve seen a mermaid so dependent on noodles in the pool. Leave it to Ramona

Then I found myself caught between the blondes and brunettes with these dinner invitations. But I figured since I was staying with the blondes, it was only fair to spend some time with my brunettes. Plus I wanted to be there for Bethenny during this critical time while also respecting her privacy at home, and I wanted to be there to celebrate how far Lu has come since the intervention. 

Of course the two restaurants were right across the street from each other. Crazy!

I was happy Bethenny came out with us, because I was worried she would stay holed up at home and go into a depression over Dennis. And I’m glad we could all toast how far Luann has come since she was asking everybody for $6 million to buy a mansion. That was when I knew I needed to call Bethenny to observe what was going on, and thankfully she helped hold the intervention. 

Just when I thought I was done balancing all of this, here comes the clambake. Who’s invited? Who’s not invited? Who’s uninvited? Who’s invited if they apologize? I can’t keep track, and I definitely don’t want to be a part of this getting any worse. I’m really feeling stuck in the middle at this point and feel terrible for Lu and Dorinda. They are really being stubborn. Especially Dorinda at this point. “Just apologize” as Ramona would say. I can’t believe I’m saying this! Let’s be honest, the hostess always has the upper hand, so if she wants to go, she has to apologize. 

I support Lu 100%, but I don’t think it’s her place to tell people that they need interventions. That’s what started this whole mess in Colombiatalking about Dorinda’s drinking!

It takes more than being uninvited to keep Ramona away from a party, so of course she’s tagging along. I was sad that Dorinda wasn’t coming, but at least she had trusty Marley to keep her company. He’s been my lifesaver since I’ve become an empty nester. I’m sure the two of them had a great time watching Tyler Perry movies together.
