Danielle is a psychotic lunatic! I thought Kelly Bensimon from RHONY was nuts, Danielle take the cake, door prize and the presents! She is manipulative and puts her poor kids in the middle… the on-air trip to the OB-GYN she asks her daughter if she is a “good girl” “cause sex is gross” WTF? you have 2 sex tapes and you think your kids do not know when it is ALL over the internet?? It is disturbing! then the episode that Caroline requests a meeting with Danelle, she turns around and tells her kids and the youngest says “why would you want to go?” well kid, mommy cannot stay away from any drama! Danielle hires bodygaurds and asks tells her kids when she gets home “See, still in one piece” like Caroline was going to hurt her!?!? she is messing those kids heads up! the damage will take years to undo in a therapist office…. sicko!
AMEN, rain!
I think Danielle wants her kids to be “better” than her just like the rest of us. As far as ALL the stuff on the web of course they know about it. They also know who put it all out there (the 3 little pigs) These women are all mothers and should be concerned about what this is doing to the children. Little pigs 1 (Teresa) and 2 (Jaqueline) are by far the worst at all the gossiping. Evil
EXACTLY. She is a horrible mother and drags her kids into her adult drama all the time. I feel so sorry for them. I don’t understand people who say she is a good mother. She is terrible, absolutely atrocious.
It’s ashame the father must not want custody because a “normal” ex husband would be yanking her into court and taking those kids away so fast. Christine is not that far from her own freedom, but Jillian has 7 long years of misery under an unstable “mother” who is just in things for herself. I fear for that child. Who apparently cries everyday. Time to get a real job Danielle. Think of your kids.
The youngest girl is smarter than her mom.
I completely agree with your comments about that wackjob.
2 things I wonder about is, will wackjob still claim to be a great mom after one of her fellow ex-con scum-balls does something to one or both of her girls and WHY doesn’t her ex-husband file for custody of those two poor girls? I can’t imagine a judge not taking the kids away from that wackjob!!
Well Carolyn is mob-related and her fatass niece Assley attacked and was convicted of assault against Danielle so a bodyguard is fully justified.
I had never watched these shows before the season finale and part 1 of 2. I’m sure Danielle must have done adversarial things but the fact is on this latest show, Danielle looked more composed, more mature, more intelligent than any of the other women combined. Wow! I am amazed there are actually people who live like this. Their families must be so proud!
Don’t comment and defend such skanky trash when you have not seen what she has done to them. Danielle has threatened these womens family and pushed them to the point of breaking. She is GARBAGE!!!
Seriously!! You can’t form an opinion of that pig based solely on last night!
Oh please get a grip..they are all GARBAGE and I do believe the threats as you like to call them go both ways.
I agree!! I’m not a Danielle fan but she came across so much classier than those 3 beasts in the room! They talk talk talk about how they are better than Danielle etc, but they are the ones who need to grow up. Ganging up on one chick & calling her foul names, physically threatening her & mocking her is not cool!
It’s an act. She sits there all smug while the others fall apart around her. She stirred up trouble off the show and got under the other ladies skin. She’s like a tick they can’t get rid of.
When she slowly struts off the stage , her face tells it all! Reminiscent of a serial killer, when they trap their victims, and enjoy the hunt as much as the kill!
It’s amazing that all the women sit on stage, cast stones, sit on their pedestals, but as soon as Danielle defends herself, they go crazy (Teresa). Teresa worse than Danielle because she shows no integrity. She acted like a animal on stage, just like she did at the dinner party when she flipped tables. I cannot stand any of them, but Teresa and her spoiled-rotten (brat) children are intolerable. And to throw such parties for a child/baptism is just crazy! No wonder they filed bankruptcy – that’s just disgusting.
@Michele, I agree with you 100%.
Teresa didn’t go crazy because Danielle defended herself. She went crazy because Danielle brought up some dirt on Teresa.
Wasn’t that just in response to Teresa talking trash to begin with?
@ Mike – I think you’re right. The first jerk remark WAS from Teresa regarding Danielle.
Danielle is one of those people who is so incredibly skilled at reducing even the most stoic, in-control person to a quivering, stuttering pile of obscenity-spewing outrage. I’m really surprised someone hasn’t taken a shot at her smugly mug – you can bet your butt if she’d called MY daughter a “coke whore,” she’d have gotten a lot more than just her hair pulled.
Exactly. I know people like Danielle. They have this “gift” of bringing out the worst in people and driving others to absolute crazy frustration, while they sit there unfazed. it is very calculated, very deliberate, and very manipulative. And these women fall for it every time.
I suspect Danielle has spent months digging stuff up for this moment in time. There is nothing pure or love or light about her at all. I don’t care how the other three reacted. If each one was brought in separately, she would do the same thing. She can’t face up to the fact that she’s had so much work on her own face she’s a cartoon character, so she believes her own lies. With her past, it’s not uncommon for a person like her to be a pathological liar. But the other women have probably never met someone so pathological before. I literally believe that Danielle takes great pleasure in trying to break up a family that she believes in her head has wronged her in some way.
Is it me or did anyone else notice that Danielle’s boobs look much larger at the reunion?
Yes! I was thinking the same thing Jean.
I totally thought this to! Dummy’s bankrupt be can afford to boobs.
Sorry..double post. Hehehe
Did charity pay for them too?
What I see is extreme frustration from Teresa. Danielle is an expert liar and gets off on provoking normal people with the twisted thoughts that circulate in her head. Its hard for normal people like Teresa to know how to deal with her.
When a mother feels that her children are being threatened she will react this way. Having a twisted person like Danielle even think about, let alone speak about my children would set me off just like it did Teresa.
I agree, she is a master at manipulating others and she believes her own lies. I am telling you, I have met this type and they will keep trying to reak havoc in anyway they can. it is beyond button pushing…. psychotic
EXACTLY. You nailed it. That’s why Caroline keeps telling Teresa “you’re giving her exactly what she wants!” I just wish Teresa would listen to her for once.
“You’re giving her exactly what she wanted” was so stupid because that whole blowup was instigated by Teresa
Teresa is a normal person? She has anger management issues, entitlement issues, and spending issues. She likes to say that she is nice and sweet, but anyone who flips a table and pushes a grown man down is out of control.
Andy should have smacked the beeeetch
I think Teresa is a lot of things, normal is not one of them. I know a lot of people and I’ve never known one to flip a table, chase someone through a club, stand over a person and scream and growl (I believe she was growling) throw things at a person, push a grown man down, scream and curse the way she does. Not NORMAL. And by the way, Teresa, the reason Danielle keeps running away is you keep chasing her. No fan of Danielle but all of these women disgust me. Caroline with her holier than thou attitude, I think Jacqueline is just stupid, Danielle is nuts but I think Teresa is the worst of all. One more thing for Caroline, it’s too bad her son has a learning disability but sometimes you need to realize you aren’t cut out for something. I for one, if in need of a lawyer, don’t think I’d pick one that has a reading comprehension problem.
There is NOTHING NORMAL about those people..lmao
It seems like the 3 “ladies” can dish it but they can’t take it. Weren’t they the ones pulling skeletons out of Danielle’s closet for the world to see? She’s allowed to give them a taste of their own medicine? They-I mean Caroline- opened Pandora’s Box and now wants to sit and act hollier than thou? She can bad mouth Danielle’s children but heaven forbid anyone speaks badly about her brood of idiots?
You are exactly right. Not that I think Teresa is entirely “normal,” however! Caroline is the only one who gets what Danielle is doing, but even she loses it now and then. That’s how
Danielle works. That’s her MO.
Well I think it might be the fact that her brother/sister had a child and Teresa is currently not speaking to them so it was hypocritical of Teresa to say Danielle was a horrible person for not acknowledging Nicholas. It must have been true because Teresa flipped out and said “WHO has SHE been talking to”. haha great moment. Teresa is such trash and is the rest of them.
This is for Karita…. Im hoping you figured out what the whole thing with baby Nic was about. But I dont understand your post. Teresa is in no way related to any one of them. Not even by marriage. And did I miss somewhere that Teresa is not speaking with Jaquelyn? Please give me more info, I’m dying to know what the whole flip out was over. Thanks
I was not saying that Jacquelin and Nicholas are related to Teresa. I’m saying that Teresa probably is not speaking to her biological brother/sister who maybe recently had a kid, so for Teresa to say that crap about Danielle not congratulating Jacq is hypocritical especially after she said “you will not break up my family” meaning her immediate family. Someone must be feeding Danielle the juicy family gossip and that’s why she flipped out.
I’m not saying that Jacquelin and Nicholas are related to Teresa. I’m saying that Teresa is probably not speaking to her biological brother/sister who maybe recently had a kid and is not acknowledging it. Hence Teresa is a hypocrite. It was proven with the line “you will not break up my family (ie. immediate family:mom,dad,sis,etc). Someone must be feeding Danielle the internal family gossip.
Sorry double post. Grrrr EW!
Teresa said “don’t bring up my family.”
I think she’s saying “who is she talking to?” Because Daniel was off camera still making comments in her matter of fact way-making lies sound like facts because she’s really good at it-so good she probably believes her own lies. And said “don’t bring up my family” not “break up my family” as someone else thought-leading to Teresa’s reaction.
Oh, that’s not how I read that AT ALL. I think Teresa is H-O-T because Danielle seems to know all the stuff Teresa doesn’t want anyone to know — Danielle knew about Teresa’s financial problems & blindsided her with that at the country club, and now here’s Danielle blindsinding her again with dirt about some drama involving a “nephew” that Teresa obviously doesn’t want to talk about. That “Who is she talking to?!” comment definitely seemed to me to be about Teresa wanting to know who is giving Danielle all the dirt she doesn’t want anyone to know about her.
Ooooh, I think you are on to something. Thanks for clarifying, it all makes sense now. I cant wait till part 2!
It’s no news that Danielle is probably crazy, but the other women didn’t help their crazy cases all that much either. Teresa was uglier and trashier than usual; Jacqueline took every opportunity to spew snarky venom at someone she professed to care nothing for; Caroline Manzo and her over the top gesticulations (the clapping, the air quotes) were mean high school. As for Andy Cohen? He digs this stuff just a little too much to make him likeable during these reunion shows.
Theresa… You can dress her up but you can’t take her anywhere!
And
Danielle …..hates leopard, because they can’t change their spots!
And
Jacqueline likes drama as much as Theresa loves leopard
And Caro- LION— is the king of the jungle… she shaves!
For the first time this season, Danielle showed more class than the other 3 combined.
Agree!!
I agree!!
yeah, when they showed that footage of Danielle’s legs wide open on a stripper pole the first word that popped in my mind was “classy”
LOL – so true – when ever the word classy comes to mind, Danielle’s actions are the first thing that would pop into anyone’s head. Anyone who is dillusional and cannot see the manipulative, vindictive and calculating ways of Danielle that is. Theresa has no self restraint and doesn’t know how to handle herself – you can take a girl out of the ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the girl
Danielle, you are the classiest lady!! you kept your cool and acted like are real lady!
The rest of those women are GARBAGE!!!!
Danielle, no one cares what you think.
What makes you think that’s Danielle ? All of you on here who defend Teresa and act like what Teresa does is cool and deserving are crazy. As far as I’m concerned none of us actually knows what Danielle does to these women because it’s not on camera and they never want to discuss it so the crazy and insane ones end up being Jacqueline, Caroline and Teresa especially. I find Teresa ways to be highly unacceptable and she’s a hypocrite while Jacqueline is a “do as I say, not as I do” type of parent. Call Danielle crazy or a lunatic, the woman is smart and knows exactly how to say the right thing to set someone off and she doesn’t have to jump in someones face to make them feel low. The reason Teresa gets so pissed is because what Danielle says is true and as we all know who would get so wild about something that isn’t the true.
LOL
liz, I wonder just how many names the wackjob has registered on different boards, she must stay busy making BS comments about herself, trying to pat her own back.
Teresa was a bit out of control, but I also think that Danielle jabbed her with the nephew thing early on to get that exact reaction from her. At least what the other ladies do, they do out in the open – and they leave kids and innocent people out of it. Danielle hijacked that benefit from a very sick little girl. What did she or her family ever do to Danielle? And meddling in Dina’s custody arrangements? Lexi didn’t do anything to Danielle either. Calling Teresa’s kids “dogs?” It’s taken to a whole other level when you go after kids who can’t defend themselves.
To be honest, I feel as if people miss the fact that these ladies START with Danielle first. Theresa judged and scolded Danielle for not acknowledging Nicholas. So Danielle turned the question on Theresa but she thinks her shit don;t stink and flipped out. Theresa is a little too violent – had she been on a season of the real world I do not think she would have lasted a week before getting the boot for hitting someone.
Have you been watching the show??? They do not leave kids out of it.
How do know if the custody crap is even true? These crazy witches are not above lying.
Why hasnt anyone commented on the horrible behaviour Danielle showed the night of that benefit for that sick little girl? That was absolutly evil ruining a benefit for a very sick child. How dare she?
this reunion was just painful to watch. i find it interesting that Andy stood up for Crazy Kelly when he felt the NYC cast was getting out of hand (which was not the case at all), but he allows these 3 women to use every chance they get to insult Danielle? I could barely hear her speak bc the other 3 were always swearing/screaming.
Danielle has major issues and I think she is not a good mother, but in that position, I would have been reduced to tears after listening to those 3 rip at her and her children. While she may deserve a tongue-lashing, she doesn’t deserve it from psycho teresa who is unable to use anything other than physical threats, animalistic howls, and 4 letter words. classy.
From watching the “watch whap happens” shows, I get the impression that Andy likes making fun of Danielle and she makes good TV for him. It doesn’t appear he cares for her, but needs the ratings.
Trashy people trashy show.
I am dying to know what the deal is with Teresa’s “nephew”. OK, let me first state unequivocally that Danielle is a nutcase, a slut, all the things she’s accused of. HOWEVER, that being said, the other 3 really have shown themselves to be not much better – ESPECIALLY Teresa, who has no class, no brains, no sense, and apparently not much of a conscience. They are all DUMB – they pretty much deserve what they’ve gotten at this point. At least Dina had the sense to leave the show.
I’m not a fan of Danielle, but she does know how to say things w/out getting a bit crazy like Teresa.
If Teresa would calm down while verbally assaulting Danielle, it would be more interesting, but the added drama of her overreacting makes one forget what the argument was about.
I think she owed Andy an apology.
Also, I thought it was sad that Jacqueline mentioned that Danielle’s children cry at school.
Very Sad.
How clueless was Danielle when hearing this information.
This is the reason I can’t stand her.
She can act loopy all she wants if she didn’t have children, but her lesbian lover, her goons, her crazy sex tapes affect her children.
How can she not see that?
Teresa needs to get a grip.
You really need to speak w/out flipping out.
You have to learn to argue w/out throwing a tantrum.
It really is making you look worse than Danielle…and that’s scary.
oh so true – Danielle gives them enough rope to hang themselves – and theresa just jumps right in
