How much do you have in common with a Real Housewife vacationing in Italy? A lot more than you think. Dom Torres & Kyla Denanyoh are discussing the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Season 15, Episodes 15 and 16, as they were to-be-continued episodes with a few dramatic moments. Through tears, parties, and gelato, Dom and Kyla agree that the humanity of the cast members is important. Every Housewife gets their feelings hurt or is disappointed, regardless of whether they are rich, wealthy, and affluent. 

First dramatic thing: broken friendships. This entire season, Dorit has been more reserved about sharing her personal information; she is choosing who to discuss certain details with and feels betrayed when Kyle suggests that Dorit not speak negatively about PK. Kyle has been irritated that Dorit has stopped confiding in her and is increasingly irritated with Dorit’s tardiness… an unfortunate flaw that has happened since the series started 15 years ago. Kyla thinks Dorit is passively telling Kyle to leave her alone, and that the argument in Italy needed to happen to wake Kyle up. Dom believes that friendship breakups are hard, and Dorit needs to stop stepping on Kyle’s toes. Who is right?

The second theme of these episodes is ownership. Kyle and Erika want Dorit to acknowledge that she is disrespectful and rude when she shows up late to events. Kyla believes these petty arguments are removing the BS so the friends can speak candidly. Kyla wishes Kyle and Erika could say this: Dorit, we miss you. When we agree to hang out, you are late, and that cuts into our time together. Dom believes that Dorit needs to accept how her actions are affecting the crew, cast, and everyone else involved in these shows, and questions whether there was a broader conversation about her actions that we have not seen. 

The third theme of the Real Housewives Season 15, Episodes 15 and 16, is ineffective communication. Erika is crying. Dorit is walking away from the dinner table in Italy. Boz is buying a house and hinting at marriage. Dorit is taking photos for her book cover. Kyle is rolling her eyes when Dorit arrives at Rachel Zoe’s party. and boom! We see Sutton with a suitcase, then the cast is back in California. What in the rushed storyline is happening in Beverly Hills?
