Dorinda Medley, 53, appeared live on Heather McDonald’s show Juicy Scoop on Tuesday and naturally, the TV personality had to deal with questions regarding the current situation around The Real Housewives of New York.
When asked who usually gets presented in the best light among the participants in the show, Medley became visibly annoyed and claimed that she saw Bethenny Frankel as a constant favorite for the best edits, with the lingering implication that the situation might not be entirely fair from her point of view.
She stated: “Do I need to answer that? It’s an obvious question, she gets edited the best,” Medley said of Frankel. Here is the problem — we all are valuable women. All of us have been successful, we all have been in love, we’ve lost love, we’ve raised children. I don’t want the audience to forget that our lives didn’t start on reality TV, like some of us, we had big lives before that.”
Medley further explained that all of the women on the show were valuable in some way, since all of them were successful, proud mothers and wives.
Dorinda also hinted subtly at how crucial it is for the audience to understand that some of the stars led meaningful lives even before the show started, but this was not the case for all of the housewives on the reality series.
As can be seen in the latest season of The Real Housewives of New York, Medley and Frankel proved to be two people who do not get along very well. During a shared trip to Puerto Rico, Frankel even made an accusatory remark regarding the amount of alcohol consumed by Medley.
A fan from the audience of Juicy Scoop asked Medley why Frankel deleted the RHONY cast members from her contact lists on social media. Medley’s response was to compare the act of her colleague to something a child in kindergarten would do, although no response has been seen from the other side just yet.
