As per usual the Part 1 the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 Reunion left us wanting more, and not necessarily in a good way. It seems as though the gloves are off with a lot of the cast members friendships and no one was shy about putting out their feelings about it. Sandovol calling his ex a coward, Lala calling out Katie for backstabbing Ariana, and even tears from brock. I get into it all.

As dramatic and melancholy as the title of the is podcast was about the same level as my emotions were dropping my last baby at Pre-School today. Today was the first time that my husband and I have ever dropped him off and left him to go into the world without us. I get that I'm speaking as if he's going off to college so I'll reel it in and just say that today was unlike any other emotional milestone I have ever felt with my boys. there was surges of sorrow, pride, and even resentful anger. Yes you heard that right, I said ANGER. Give the episode a listen and you'll understand why.

What is life that my 8 year old has already decided what type of woman he wants for himself in the year 2065 when I finally decide to let him date. In this podcast we talked about the sweetest mother's day card that he gifted me over the weekend, and a moment at his school dance where I had to hold back my inner latina. The girls are getting a little too flirty at the rip old age of eight and a half. All jokes aside I couldn't be more proud of the amazing young man that my OG baby boy is turning into. And as far as being confortable behind a microphone, he' a chip off the Really Riley block.

In honor of Mother's day I decided to take things back to almost 9 years ago when I was pregnant with my first baby boy. Time is a true thiend and it's insane to me to think about my son' growing like weeds right before my very eyes. It also comforting to know based in hearing that letter, that I can do anything as a mother as long as I just love them with all that I am. Sending so much love this Mother's day to call the mamas in every form, and to the hopefully soon to be mamas that are yearning for their own little miracle. Thank you thank you thank you for listening and happy Mother's Day. reallyrileypodcast.com Become A Part of The #WeGotThisArmy FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL Instagram @rileycouture @reallyrileypodcast @houseofwbyriley TikTok @rileycouture7 @reallyrileypodcast @houseofwbyriley YouTube @reallyrileypodcast To advertise on The Really Riley Podcast contact Detra Jones Emails : partnerships@contentwi.com Phone : 731.612.2310 Learn more about your ad choices.

My head was spinning from screaming at the television last night when I finally had alone time to watch the episode from start to finish. many are speculating that this could be the precursor to the series actually ending after more than ten years in production. In this episode I chat about the clever way Ariana backed production inot a corner, the wannabe cast member that just needs to take a seat, and the moment that Sandovol proved that he will never truly be a changed man. But it's not as if we didn't know that already.

This episode took an emotional turn for my husband Marshall that I wasn't expecting it to, but I'm oh so grateful that it did. We sat down to chat about the moment at my son's soccer game that was pure elation and pride for me, but somewhat of a childhood trauma realization for him. It's not often that my husband be so emotionally wide open of his own accord, and and even more infrequent with an audience. So needless to say I'm proud of him. In this episode I also talked about a moment of insecurity during my manifestation workshop presentation where I was second guessing putting myself out there with a certain quote. But if you listen through to the end of the episode you'' understand why.

This may as well be one of the pettiest celebrity headlines I have ever talked about. But considering who's involved I could honestly believe that Rachel Leviss would pull a stunt like this to either get her name back in the press and or get back at Ariana Madix for asking the court to dismiss her lawsuit.In this episode I dive into all of that leftover Scadovol dramas as well as getting into the shade that Sheana was throwing at her supposed bestie Ariana. And let us not forget that Something About her FINALLY has an opening date!!!

This week's Ask Riley question were all over the place in the best way possible. Some of them I've had first hand experience in and other's I had no experience whatsoever (but I did my research before answering). Blow ares one of my favorite questions asked this week with one in particular that may have to be set for a later date as I way out whether or not I'm going to have to add this too the off limits category on the podcast. And seeing as how this would only be the second ever to gain that title we aren't doing so bad. ENJOY!

As a former single mom myself I can empathize with what it means to bring a child into this world knowing that you are more than likely going to have a very different road into parenting that someone who has a partner to help lighten the load. But rather than fear it, there is a whole community of parents that embrace it and choose to go it alone. In this episode I interview Erin, who is a single mom of two beautiful boys that she has chosen to conceive and raise solo. Erin realized from a relatively early age that she wasn't having the best luck in relationships but she was certain she wanted to be a mother and raise her children in as calm and enrichment as humanly possible. So rather than wait for the perfect person to come along and risk the chance of her fertility taking the chance at motherhood from her, she went on an IUI journey that resulted in her beautiful son, and later and IVF journey that gutfed her a second baby boy. He story is such an interesting an inspiring one that sheds light on the fact that there is entire community of families that are thriving outside of what some may say are the traditional norms.

There are so many times that new mamas will ask me if the dreaded Mom Guilt ever goes away and the sad truth of it is that it surely does not. I'm 8.5 years in and for me it just seems to either multiply or morph into a different form rather than ease up. In this episode I talk about the moment that I feel like I chose the wrong thing and let my kiddo down. And that choice led to me missing a pretty big moment in his budding soccer career. What they say about the days being long and the years being short is the most cliche but very true statement i've ever heard about raising tiny humans. But the great part about Mom guilt is I feel like it can be a good barometer of how much you love as a parent, or at least I'm telling myself that.

Throughout my 20 years as a broadcast professional I've had heard some pretty shocking stories. But of all of them, THIS one is in the Top 5 of the craziest things I have ever talked about over the airwaves. In this episode Crystal shares her horrifying about a real life Tinder Swindler who we will call "Him". On paper "Him" seemed like the ideal man for a beautiful and successful young woman like Crystal. "Him' presented himself as a charming and handsome entrepreneur who swiftly started talking marriage and babies as if it was something out of an Oscar Nominated romance. But the red flags in the beginning quickly turned shockingly dark. Crystal goes into detail about how things could have gotten worse but thankfully she left once she realized he wasn't at all the prince charming he said he was. What was supposed to be a romantic birthday trip to visit who she thought was going to be her future, ended up being every single girl's WORST nightmare.
