Dorinda Medley Says She’s Bored With ‘RHONY’ Dynamics This Season
Dorinda Medley was shocked when she learned that her relationship was the focus of this season of The Real Housewives of New York. Medley was shocked to learn that her co-stars were talking about her behind her back, especially when it came to her relationship with John Mahdessian. During the season’s second episode, Dorinda learned that John had been talking about taking Viagra, getting buzzed, and having sex with Dorinda for hours. And Medley didn’t really appreciate the chatter, especially when it came to her friends bringing it up on national television.
According to a new Bravo report, Dorinda Medley is now revealing that she’s bored with the way things are playing out on the show. She’s tired of how things are unfolding on the show, especially since Bethenny Frankel continues to talk about her troubles with John. And it sounds like Dorinda doesn’t want to talk about her relationship anymore even though Medley is standing by her man.
“Quite frankly, I’m bored. Bored of the accusations, the speculation, the bad manners, and the joy with which some react to the misfortunes and pain of another. What happened to a good, supportive friendship? What ever happened to class? It’s all schadenfreude,” Medley revealed, making a reference to New York Broadway.
In her blog for the week, Dorinda Medley gives plenty of credit to her friend, Jules Wainstein. Jules has also been fighting for her own role on the show, as Bethenny has been very critical of her life decisions, including building a massive home in the Hamptons. In addition, Jules’ body and weight has been under criticism from her Real Housewives of New York co-stars, as she’s very thin. Jules decided to talk to Bethenny about her eating disorder during a lunch.
“Here’s to the girl who plays wife! I could go into each segment of the episode, but the main story lies in this: Jules does not back down and certainly doesn’t shy away. (Remind you of anyone?) To be honest, I’m not sure Jules’ lunch with Bethenny was the right time to share something so deep. I thought this was an opportunity for Bethenny to apologize for her behavior, explain where she’s coming from, and make nice. Instead, it was Jules opening up, out of nervousness, sharing her vulnerabilities and intimacies. I think it’s ultimately a mistake, because any sign of weakness is a prime target for any kind of overlord,” Dorinda Medley reveals on her blog for Bravo, sharing that she misses friendships where women are supportive of one another.
It sounds like Dorinda didn’t think that the lunch was the appropriate time for her to talk about her personal issues. During the lunch, Jules opened up about her previous body issues, and she told Frankel that she had struggled with body issues and an eating disorder for a while when she was younger. Bethenny has admitted that she also had an eating disorder, and she’s written several books on how to live a healthy and balanced lifestyle. When Wainstein decided to open up about her health issues, Bethenny started crying because she understood everything that she was going through.
Even though Dorinda and Jules have known each other for a while, it sounds like Medley was shocked that Wainstein was so open with Frankel, especially since Frankel had just been so aggressive with Dorinda’s boyfriend, John. It will be interesting to see if Medley tries to persuade Wainstein to keep her distance with Frankel, especially since they have feuded a bit.
