‘RHONY’ Star Jules Wainstein In A ‘Living Hell’ With Estranged Husband Michael Who ‘Cut Her Off’
More details surrounding Jules Wainstein’s divorce with Michael are starting to emerge.
According to OK Magazine, Michael has now cut off the Real Housewives of New York star, who is “going through a living hell.”
In the latest episode of The Real Housewives of New York, Jules explained how Michael didn’t even support her during her trip to the ER.
“When I got into my accident like I really hurt myself, and I was calling Michael a hundred times,” Jules told Dorinda Medley. “He wasn’t picking up the phone. Like, my brother and his wife picked me up at the ER and it’s like, 2 o’clock in the afternoon. He didn’t show up until 8 p.m.”
Jules felt abandoned at the hospital and only wanted someone there for support.
“It just makes me feel like, ‘Where are you?’ I just wanted someone to take care of me,” she explained. “It’d be nice if I had a partner.”
Jules and Michael recently confirmed their divorce but are still living together. An inside source revealed that Jules “is going through a living hell” at the New York apartment.
According to Us Magazine, the couple decided to remain in the same house because they didn’t want to be away from their children.
Jules and Michael have two kids together, Jagger (6) and Rio (3).
Jules’ biggest problem, however, is that Michael is no longer giving her support payments.
“Michael cut her off so she has no way of paying for the kids,” the insider stated.
“Jules’ real goal is to create some drama to increase her stock on Real Housewives,” he claims.
While Jules deals with the nasty divorce, her RHONY co-stars are offering their full support.
Luann de Lesseps even had a few words of advice for Jules Wainstein.
“I feel bad that she’s going through what she’s going through, and I really didn’t have a clue that she was having marital problems,” she stated. “My advice is to hopefully handle it the best way you can, and that is to protect your children. And to try to maintain a relationship with your ex so that your kids know that they’re loved and that Mommy and Daddy, even though they’re not together, they have a friendship.”
Jules isn’t the only RHONY cast member to go through an ugly split. In fact, there are few women on the show who haven’t gone through a similar situation.
“I really believe that in life, one grows from the hardships, and this is definitely a major hardship, but I think she’ll grow from it and be stronger for it,” Singer said. “And I respect her a lot, and I think she’s more resilient than she knows.”
Of course, this is Jules first year on the reality show and she is still has a lot to learn.
Although she has made some friends this season, others haven’t been so kind.
In her latest Bravo blog, Jules criticized Bethenny Frankel and Carole Radziwill for their lack of self-awareness.
“It’s clear that Bethenny and Carole have their opinions and assumptions about me and that’s fine…” she wrote. “What’s not okay is thinking that your opinions (or someone else’s if you don’t have your own) are the truth. If you’re looking for truth, you should be looking within yourself, not picking apart other people.”
Fans can watch Jules Wainstein when new episodes of The Real Housewives of New York air Wednesday nights on Bravo.
