BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE

Kathy Hilton stepped down last week from her role as Grand Marshal Icon at WeHo’s 2026 pride. This week, more facts surfaced which seem to suggest there is more than originally thought to meet the eye. Speaking of RHOBH, Garcelle revealed, finally, the shocking secret reason she really quit RHOBH and it was not at all what anyone expected. No Sutton and the rest of the diamond holders, it does not have to do with you. Last, but not least, as Dorit’s foreclosure was moved, yet again (Ok June 23rd, we see you), Dorit says Amanda Frances cannot have her house, says PK is fabricating a lot of financial facts about her and still, seems, a little disconnected with the true gravity of her financial situation. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: SQUARE - square.com/go/VELVET (Get $200 Off The Platform That Brings Payments, Operations & Insights Together In One Place To Help You Run Your Business) WHATNOT - www.whatnot.com (Download The Whatnot App To Get Free Shipping On Your First Order To Live Shop on The US’s #1 Live Shopping App) TASKRABBIT - taskrabbit.com (Or On The Taskrabbit App Use Code Velvet For $15 Off Your First Tasker) MYFITNESSPAL - podcasts.myfitnesspal.com (Use Code VELVET, All Upper Case Letters, For 15% Off The Premium App That Will Change Everything For You Regarding Fitness & Nutrition) ZENNI OPTICAL - zenni.com/podcast (Use Code Podcast15 For 15% Off Your First Order Of The Most Affordable, Stylish Glasses and Sunglasses) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

After PK divorced his amazing first wife Loretta and married the one and only Dorit, he made a few mistakes. Tomorrow, one of PK’s mistakes, perhaps the biggest of PK’s mistakes (some call her Rachel), returns to our podcast after a several year hiatus to go psycho, have a breakdown and tell us to F off. We can’t make this shiz up if we tried. Today, we share the true facts behind PK’s ex's anger, read on air the viral press article from our Podcast surrounding PK and his ex which caused her anger, share a new message to the ex, offer some much needed, albeit unsolicited, life advice, and explain that, after today, regardless of the next month of clap backs, outrage and slander from anyone who will listen, how and why we will never speak of the subject again. Never again except, of course, tomorrow when Part I of our live Podcast show drops on Patreon so everyone can hear and decide for themselves. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) ZENNI OPTICAL - zenni.com/podcast (Use Code Podcast15 For 15% Off Your First Order Of The Most Affordable, Stylish Glasses and Sunglasses) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Tawny Kitaen steps Behind The Rope. In what is likely her last interview ever, Tawny is here to take, what is now deemed as, a total look back at her life. Tawny went to her first rock concert at age 14, saw how the singer’s girlfriend got full VIP access and treatment and decided, “hey, I want that.” Tawny went out and made that happen. A rocker gal by nature, Tawny dated the guitarist from Ratt while in high school. From there she graduated, and “graduated”, by marrying Whitesnake’s lead singer. Although they divorced years later, she is most notorious for being “that girl” in the Whitesnake video. With that career defining moment she went from “groupie” to wife and celebrity. Choreographer Paula Abdul took one look at Tawny’s moves on the set of the Whitesnake video shoot and said, “you don’t need my help” and left! Tawny graced our small screens with roles on many of our beloved shows including Seinfeld (who she also dated), Married...With Children and America’s Funniest People. Before it was the “cool” thing to do, Tawny transitioned from “actress” to reality star starring in VH1s “The Surreal Life” and “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew”. Speaking of Reality TV, who could forget Tawny’s 2017 appearance on E’s mega-hit Botched with Doctors Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif. There was also that star studded role with Tom Hanks in Bachelor Party. Of course, being in the OC, we also talk the good and bad of RHOC. @tawnykitaenofficial @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: WHATNOT - www.whatnot.com (Download The Whatnot App To Get Free Shipping On Your First Order To Live Shop on The US’s #1 Live Shopping App) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
