Sick in Bed with RHOBH, RHOA, & Gypsy Rose: Life After Lockup ESPRESSO SHOT!!!

Zenobia Darling, Derek Pentz Season 2 Episode 29

Alright, Bravo babes—this Espresso Shot is fever-drenched, unhinged, and fashionably late because I was mid-edit when Part Two of the RHOBH Reunion hit me like Rinna throwing a wine glass at Kim Richards. I tossed the script, ran to the mic, and started ranting—because the drama demanded it.

🍸 First up: The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Pt. 2
I break down: 

👗 Why Dorit and Jennifer Tilley are the only ones giving rich eccentric fantasy
💎 When Garcelle turned in her diamond and checked out
🎭 Why Erika Jayne is a villain with no storyline, no flair, and absolutely no new tricks
🪩 And Kyle Richards—who’s been here since Season 1 and still hasn’t figured out how to be interesting. Kyle, it’s time to hang up the kaftans, babe. I said what I said.
Also: Peacock, we’re all paying—so uncensor the Bravo content already. Don’t be shy.

🍑 Then we jump over to Atlanta for the KENYA MOORE DRAMA (yes, that’s all caps). Because what’s happening with Kenya isn’t just one peach-holder’s storyline—it’s a Bravo-level breakdown of pop culture, power, and the weird astrological waters we’re all drowning in. Bravo’s floating face-down and I’m here with a reality TV life raft.

🤒 And THEN… in Part Two, recorded mid-fever/allergy spiral (I was literally dripping in VapoRub), I deep-dive into Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up—Lifetime’s new reality chaos machine.

We spiral through: 

👰 Gypsy’s messy post-prison rebrand and chaotic Southern Louisiana supporting cast
👀 Her Daddy AF dad (yes, THAT man)
💍 The maybe-cheating-maybe-just-overedited love triangle between Gypsy, her husband Ryan, and ex-fiancé Ken
🚬 Her stealth smoking, self-filmed fights, and clear thirst for influencer fame
🎬 The dark AF undercurrent that I love in good reality tv that Gypsy is delivering. 

The show is a trainwreck and I devoured every second like sleep during a Mucinex fever dream. Lifetime gave it a budget and an edit and a platform. 

So grab your cough syrup join me in bitching through Beverly Hills, Atlanta, and Louisiana. No regrets. Just rage, Zenobia Darling, and reality TV revelations.
