'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills' Recap: What Does Yolanda Foster Freak Out About In Mallorca?
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are back but very few of them are actually in Beverly Hills during this episode. While Kyle Richards and Yolanda Foster take a trip to Europe together, the other ladies catch up with each other over shopping trips and fancy lunches. And how else would they get together? This is Beverly Hills, after all.
To start off the episode of shopping trips and fancy vacations, Kim tries on her dress for her daughter Brooke's wedding, which is coming up in next week's episode, while Ken and Lisa take their own baby to get some new clothes.
Now, you may be shaking your head saying, "Ken and Lisa don't have a baby!" You must not know how they treat their little pup Giggy. As they pick out some spiffy duds for the dog with alopecia, they debate on what kind of PJs they should buy for him. And while they debate that, we are debating everything in our lives, knowing that a dog has more clothes then us.
Kyle decides to pack it in from Beverly Hills for the week and take a much-needed vacation with her family around the Mediterranean, and her first stop is Spain. In Mallorca, a little seaside town on the coast of Spain, Kyle and her family have chartered a yacht that is actually bigger than some people's homes. However, as Yolanda comes rolling up to the dock of the boat she reveals that the sailboat she was on the week prior was even bigger.
Ladies, haven't you heard the expression, "It's not the size of the boat but the..." Well, maybe it is the size of the boat because Yolanda's sailboat looked hella nice.
This episode seems like it is all about fun and laughter, which is definitely a change from some of the tense meetings and drama filled dinners we have seen on the series in the past.
We have to say that fun times might not bring in the killer ratings but we love watching them more than we like watching the drama. After all, where are you going to see two housewives riding around in two "bagel tubes" in the middle of the ocean screaming their heads off?
As Yolanda and Kyle go for a wild ride on their inner tubes, the Lisas go out to lunch together. Lisa Rinna mets up with Lisa Vanderpump for a little lunch date at, where else, Villa Blanca. These two have friends for over 25 years and Vanderpump says it's because Rinna has never been actively looking for a problem with her like some of the other women she knows.
As the two converse about rosé, Rinna asks Vanderpump is she can come to her event, where she will be receiving a star on the Palm Springs Walk of Fame. The two then decide that they need some new outfits just for the occasion and take their lunch date on to a shopping date.
They humorously try on clothes for each other, cracking jokes at each other's expense the whole time.
Meanwhile back in Europe, Kyle and Yolanda do a little sightseeing as they scoop at one of the famous cathedrals and have a sword fight with one of the locals. During a lunch, the girls have a heart-to-heart, as they bond over the loss and illness of their parents.
The two housewives who have been at each other's throats during some of the past episodes really took this time to bond with one another, as they talk about their parents skills and how they are coping with their children leaving them for college.
To solidify the new bond that has been made, Yolanda dares Kyle to jump off the side of the yacht with her, which Kyle does after a lot of pressuring from her family.
We got to say that the episode was definitely refreshing, but it wouldn't be the Housewives if they didn't throw a little bit of drama in there too.
During their boat trip, Yolanda gets a phone call from her husband David who is calling to tell her something about their daughter Bella. After a few tense moments and a drawn out dramatic pause, Yolanda reveals that her daughter has gotten a DUI.
The episode concludes and it looks like the topic will further be discussed on next week's show.
