RHONY: Tinsley Mortimer majorly spilled the beans about Dorinda Medley
By Amanda Cline
The Real Housewives of New York City were in for a real mess when Tinsley Mortimer brought her receipts for Dorinda Medley’s takedown.
The Real Housewives of New York City had the first in-person reunion since March! Tinsley Mortimer was in attendance from Chicago and everyone had their fancy masks on. Ramona Singer started the reunion off with some heat about her traveling during the quarantine. Leah McSweeney was very vocal about how she felt that Ramona was dancing and living her best life in Florida while many people were dying due to the coronavirus.
Even Andy Cohen jumped in to say Ramona was not following guidelines with her lax behavior in the last few months. Not to mention she felt a little ill but traveled to Florida right after! Both Ramona and Avery Singer tested positive for the coronavirus antibodies.
Tinsley vs Dorinda
But the real drama at the reunion was with Dorinda Medley and Tinsley! Knowing that Dorinda was fired not long after the reunion was taped really adds to her awful behavior. Even Andy shouted at her that she was not taking any responsibility for her actions, she was just deflecting the entire time. When he asked about her drinking, she said something about how she felt sorry for Ramona. Next up, Dorinda said Ramona’s facelift looked great.
Tinsley made a great point that the turkey baster comment being offensive to SO many people that were watching and how vile the comment was. Dorinda did offer an apology for the comment but it did not seem sincere. The apology came much too late, especially for viewers who might be having issues with getting pregnant.
But here’s the real tea
Tinsley said that Scott Kluth gave John Mahdessian money and they got into a fight about it during season 11. She noted that this made Dorinda very mad because John went behind her back to borrow money. In turn, she took this out on Tinsley for the next year or so. Tinsley said production was worried about her safety that night. because Dorinda was so mad. They also aired some of the unreleased footage from that night that backed up her story.
It sounds like Tinsley has a lot of information about Dorinda’s anger and was polite enough not to spill all of it in the months since she left the show. But now Tinsley has the opportunity to defend herself and we are so here to watch that happen!
