‘RHONY’ Wainstein Divorce Gets Uglier With Alleged Drug Use And Michael’s Mother Paying His Bills
Since the season of the Real Housewives of New York ended, the Wainstein divorce has gotten uglier, and new accusations are being hurled. Michael Wainstein is accusing his estranged wife Jules Wainstein of being a drug addict and says that because of RHONY, Jules Wainstein started spending money like crazy to keep up with the other housewives out of peer pressure. He is insisting that he get full custody of their two children.
However, now, Jules Wainstein has been fired by Bravo, and so no income, and Michael Wainstein is trying to reduce the amount of money he has to pay Jules because he says he is broke, says the Inquisitr. Michael Wainstein allegedly left the marriage because he has a girlfriend, and is now living with her in a brownstone, while Jules is living with the couple’s children in the apartment seen on RHONY. Jules requested and was granted a restraining order after the police were called the Wainstein’s apartment.
Michael Wainstein, 44, told the court that while Jules was on RHONY, her crazy spending quadrupled, says PageSix. Wainstein says that Jules wanted desperately to keep up with the other wealthy ladies on the show, and spent money like crazy, says Michael Wainstein’s attorney Morghan Richardson. They claim that she blew through the $60k she was paid by Bravo quickly.
“During that time frame her spending quadrupled. She was then trying to keep up with her peers on the show.”

Michael Wainstein has asked the judge to give him custody of their two minor children, as he claims that Jules Wainstein is a drug user.
“Look no further than to watch TV than to see the bag of drugs she carries around.”
The judge explained that he does not decide cases based on television shows.
“I don’t decide my cases on what may or may not be on television. What proof do you have?”
Michael Wainstein says he will be subpoenaing the family nanny to testify to finding Jules passed out on the balcony, and that she left food on the stove for hours with the burners on. However, Judge Michael Katz is asking the Wainsteins to work out as much as they can between themselves, or else the children will suffer.
“At the end of the day, the two people that are going to be harmed are the kids.”
However, Michael Wainstein doesn’t seem to be backing off about accusations of drug use, and claims he is worried about the safety of Jagger and Rio, as Jules Wainstein doesn’t go anywhere without a bag of pills in her purse, says E Online. Michael Wainstein says that Jules has a history of drug abuse and other mental health issues. Jules Wainstein claims her only issue was an eating disorder.
Jules Wainstein is currently supposed to receive $10k a month in temporary support, and she claims her standard of living was harmed because Michael did not pay the couple’s taxes, and ignored many bills.
Do you think that the Wainsteins will be able to work out a deal between them, or will it go in front of the judge?
