Not All Diamonds and Rosé: The Inside Story of the Real Housewives from the People Who Lived It

Product Information

For the first time in the ultimate reunion, the ladies of The Real Housewives dish on the iconic moments we’ll never forget and the off-camera drama we’ve never seen before. From flipped tables to thrown tiki torches, from Atlanta to Beverly Hills, this is the definitive story of the Real Housewives. production in general comes off very gross in the book. along with the cancer thing i mentioned, they treat emotionally upsetting and potentially traumatizing or damaging moments and certain* physically violent moments as iconic, amazing, hilarious, etc. and just the way some of them talk about the women was iffy, like how andy talked about carole for example. a lot of the women come off very gross, too. it seems a lot of them took this book as an opportunity to further trash the other women, and the women who did not participate got trashed the most.

I don't feel like there were enough women (or any at all?) in the room when this was being edited/published, though, because there is a gross accusation of assault and a woman standing by the assault then using it to make the other woman look bad. I don't want to use any triggering terms here, but you can find details by googling Heather and Sonja. Sonja is a gem and did not deserve this. I can't imagine another woman letting this allegation be published, mainly because we don't know what kind of trauma Sonja is dealing with from this moment etc.Not All Diamonds and R osé] spills the tea (or the rosé, if you prefer) on the reality empire with extensive reporting from the series' casts, producers, executives, and more.”
