Another week, another Jill Zarin resurgence on Bravo. This woman is seriously everywhere all of a sudden. The thirst is real, but itâs certainly entertaining. From showing up on Real Housewives of New York (again) to appearing on Watch What Happens Live, the fandom got a double dose of Jill last night.
Yes, Luann de Lesseps was there too, but she didnât say anything new. We get it: she loves Tom DâAgostino, theyâre so happy, she found her soulmate, theyâve been through so much. Itâs come to a point where I feel like I could do an interview on Luannâs behalf and answer all of the questions using the same phrases that she would. Obviously, thatâs a sad thing for me. Clearly I read and watch way too much RHONY content, but whatever. Youâre reading this, so on some level you must get me.
With that said, Iâm going to skip past the customary Tom-related interrogation that Luann went through during the last Watch What Happens Live episode. If you care that much, just watch it⌠or any other episode sheâs been on in the past year⌠or any other interview sheâs done. Itâs the same story over and over again. Donât get me wrong, I love Luann and her delusion, which comes off way meaner than I intend. I genuinely am entertained by the way that Luann sees the world. I just wish someone would ask her some different questions for once. And thatâs why Iâm here to focus on the Jill stuff.
Andy told Jill, âRamona [Singer] said she thinks youâre desperate to be back on the show. Whatâs your response and what is the latest with where you guys are? Jill admitted, âI was very hurt because she knows â weâre still friendly with the same people â I had a really hard year with my husband Bobby [Zarin]. We were in Florida this winter dealing with a lot of medical issues.â Very much valid.
And then Jill went on a tangent about all the alleged opportunities she had to come back on the show: âSo for her to say that, maybe at other times and opportunities for me to come back on the show, but this wasnât it. She knew that. It just hurt me. It was a dig and it hurt me.â If Jill had an option to be back on the show, she would take it. Thereâs no way she has turned anything down. Come on.

Nevertheless, the OG cast member revealed: âBut I have to say, two weeks ago we ran into each other. Luann ran away. She gets up when she sees Ramona, goes the other way. Ramona sits in front of me, grabs me by the hands, and says, âWe have to talk.â And we did. You know what, I yelled and screamed at her. She heard me and we came to a peaceful place.â For 993839383th time. And Iâm sure that peace isnât going to last for long⌠especially given the things that Jill says during the rest of the episode.
In regard to Bethenny Frankel crying over Luannâs impending marriage in the Berkshires, Jill said, âI think there was a little bit of projection on herself. I think she was feeling her own pain.â Plus she made it a point to throw in âand loving to Luann â very loving.â
What did she think about Ramonaâs explosion and rock star room trashing at Dorinda Medleyâs Berkshires home? Jill described it as âdisgustingâ and said Ramona was âabsolutely a pig.â So much for that âpeaceful place,â Jill. When asked if Dorinda should invite the ladies back, Jill said, âAbsolutely not. Never again. Not without insurance.â Not without insurance or a Bravo camera crew to film all the madness.
And of course Jillâs former BFF Bethenny was brought up (again). A caller asked, âIf you could say one thing to Bethenny today what would you say?â Jill admitted, âI think I would say âI donât even remember what it was about.â I donât even remember what we fought about. I really donât. I would give her a hug and a kiss.â As if Bethenny is ever going to let that happen.
