New Fave Housewife Alert: Meet Braunwyn Windham-Burke!

Many many many many housewives have come and gone in the now 14 seasons of the 'RHOC' which happens to be the original housewives franchise. But, with all of those crazy housewives, 22 to be exact, very few have left a long-lasting impact. Since they have exited, the only former members of the OC we have any interest in keeping tabs on are: Gretchen  Rossi (seasons 4-8); Alexis Bellino (seasons 5-8); Heather Dubrow (seasons 7-11); and Meghan King Edmonds (seasons 10-12). Sadly, we have actually become disinterested with some of the actual active cast but we won't name names. We are quite happy Ms. Woo Hoo (Vicki Gunvalson) was demoted to "friend of" but then we had to hear the pity party which was super annoying but alas, we have to find one redeeming quality about the show so we can continue to get our housewives fix. Luckily, Kelly Dodd has brought in newcomer, Braunwyn Windham-Burke and we are living for her. Finally, a newcomer we don't hate- examples: Lydia McLaughlin, Peggy Sulahian, Quinn Fry. 

A little bit about Brauwyn: she has been with her husband, Sean for 24 years as they met in college at a party but married for 19 and have seven children. From the jump, she told him she wanted to stay home and have kids and somehow, he was not scared off by this. She has already become fast and furious friends with Kelly's now-mortal enemy, Tamra Judge (the new OG of the OC) and even swears by Tamra's Vena Wellness CBD products for her anxiety. Judge spent the season 14 premiere episode shouting out to Braunwyn on Instagram. So, how old is the mama, whose youngest child is just over a year old? She is in her early 40's, one report says 41, which means she and Sean met at 17; their eldest child is not even 20 but they pride themselves on a lot of family time, always vacationing and making the most of what they have. Her mom is Dr. Deb and they are Cali natives, where the Burke's returned to three years ago after living in Miami for some time. Though they loved it there, it is clear Braunwyn is a Cali gal at heart and this was just the time when she befriended Kelly. Shockingly, we never saw her until now. 

She is a super great addition, if episode one was any indication, and mom goals for sure. We cannot wait to see what she brings to the table the rest of the season. What do you think of her? Keep watching season 14 of 'RHOC' Tuesday nights on Bravo at 9pm.

A 'Jerseylicious' Split!

  photo courtesy of imdb.com When you were on a semi-successful reality show, especially as one of the key players, and everyone watched your love story unfold, it only makes sense they will want to keep following you after the series has ended. Such has been the case for 'Jerseylicious' star, Tracy DiMarco , who always went head-to-head with Olivia Blois-Sharpe on the show based around the never-ending drama at the Jersey salon, The Gatsby. Eventually, DiMarco got her happily ever after when she married Corey Epstein in her dream wedding. She continued to pursue her passion, have three kids, develop a wildly successful podcast, and work on clothing and accessories.  But, when you are in the public eye, boasting 541K followers on Instagram , almost everything you do is up for scrutiny. Fans (and haters) began to notice a lack of presence when it came to her husband, Corey and questioned if their marriage was okay. There is an abundance of photos of daughters, Skylar and

'The Real L Word' Cast- Where Are They Now?

  photo courtesy of amazon.com With the return of the hit Showtime series, 'The L Word,' it makes fans of the original show and ultimate reality spinoff, 'The Real L Word,' quite nostalgic. Actors can keep acting but reality stars can drift off into the clouds after their 15 minutes of fame are over. TRLW lasted three seasons with a revolving door of lesbians who soon became like friends and family. Initially based in California, the show followed the lives of a handful of gay women, somehow intertwined in life, and what it was like to date, fall in love, have sex, try to make babies, propose, be successful, and so much more. By the final season, the series went bi-coastal, utilizing NYC as a playground, as well. The show ended in 2012 with two weddings and a lot of tears. So, where are they now? Get ready to catch up with our fave reality celesbians! - Whitney Mixter : the player of the series, she may have hooked up with almost every member of the cast. But,
