David Foster: Yolanda is "Exaggerating" Illness (Report)

Let’s leave the woman battling Lyme disease alone. True, by making her illness public, Yolanda Foster is inviting criticism.  However, I have a hard time believing that she’s milking the attention for all it’s worth. Sources tell Us Weekly that Foster’s estranged husband, David and his family believe the former model “just loves the attention of being sick . “They believe she’s exaggerating her condition.” Errrr. “And they point out that she’s never gotten a legit diagnosis or a second or third opinion,” the source added.  “He didn’t understand why Yolanda wouldn’t leave the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills if she’s in so much pain and so tired.” David has immense wealth and is a private person despite his fame, according to the source, “so it was frustrating Yolanda wanted to do this show so badly.” It’s also been claimed that the music producer has, to date, spent $5 million on Yolanda’s treatments. A friend of Yolanda’s refutes any claims that she is seeking attention. “The sickness is very real and not fake,” says the insider. “She’s being brave, and she’s a fighter. She did this season only to promote awareness of the disease.” Yolanda defended her decision to be so candid with her health, after Taylor Armstrong boldly questioned it on this week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills . “Maybe it should anger me, but instead it makes me want to fight harder and speak louder for those whose voices can’t be heard,” Yolanda wrote. “Those of you who have experienced chronic illness, you know what I’m talking about.” View Slideshow: 13 Reality TV Show Hoaxes You Totally Fell For

David Foster: STILL Paying Yolanda Foster’s Medical Bills?!

It’s been over two weeks since we first learned that Yolanda and David Foster are getting divorced , and sources say that even though Yolanda is the one who decided to call it quits, she’s still milking David for everything he’s worth. According to TMZ, the couple signed a prenup when they married in 2011, but David is giving Yolanda much more cash than he’s required to. In fact, the website claims that David is still paying for Yolanda’s medical bills, which is odd for a few reasons: For one thing, Yolanda’s bills are astronomical, as she frequently travels internationally to receive expensive stem cell treatments that aren’t legal in the US. But what makes the situation even more surprising is the fact that friends say David doesn’t even believe Yolanda has Lyme disease ! “David is telling friends he believes she was cured of it long ago, but she’s been playing up ongoing symptoms because she enjoys the attention,” one insider recently told Radar Online. Sources say Yolanda decided to end the marriage over a year ago, but David has continued to provide emotional and financial support. When David sold his $27 million Malibu home, he reportedly gave Yolanda “a big chunk” of the money, and she recently purchased a $5 million home in the upscale Wilshire Corridor section of Los Angeles. Yolanda may or may not be sick, but from the sound of things, her bank account has never been healthier.

David Foster: Yolanda Foster Does NOT Have Lyme Disease!

Back in 2012, Yolanda Foster was diagnosed with Lyme disease , and her health has deteriorated steadily in the years since. Earlier this week, the reality star’s world unraveled further when it was announced that Yolanda and David Foster are divorcing after four years of marriage. Now, those two seemingly unrelated challenges are colliding in unexpected fashion, as Radar Online reports that David has joined the ranks of those who believe that Yolanda is faking her illness .  “David is telling friends he believes she was cured of it long ago, but she’s been playing up ongoing symptoms because she enjoys the attention,” says one insider. Unlike some Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast members who think Yolanda was never sick, David believes his wife was very ill at one point, but hasn’t been experiencing severe symptoms like the ones she describes for several years. There was no doubt Yolanda was struggling and David was there to support her,” the source said. “In the beginning, David went with her to all of her doctor’s appointments, including the overseas trips for other treatment.” David tells friends, however, that as time went on “Yolanda just seemed to really enjoy all of the attention she was getting.” He reportedly claims the problem got worse after Yolanda’s daughter, Gigi Hadid, began to gain international fame. “Her oldest daughter, Gigi was becoming a very successful model, and it seemed hard for Yolanda, a former model herself, to watch her child get so much attention,” says the source. “Getting older seems to have been very hard for Yolanda. Now, it looks like she isn’t ready to give up the role of sick patient.” Is it possible that Yolanda’s “illness” is simply a symptom of a severe mid-life crisis. If so, the beloved Housewife may soon fall out of favor with many of her fans. Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online  to decide for yourself if Yolanda is really sick – or really good at faking it.

Yolanda Foster: Illness Drove Her and Husband David Apart (Report)

Last night, Yolanda and David Foster announced their plans to divorce after four years of marriage. It was news that surprised almost everyone who watches The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.   In 2012, Yolanda was diagnosed with Lyme disease, and has since traveled the world in search of a cure.  David has been by her side for much of the time, as the former model’s Instagrams have shown. Cracks began to show, however, as Yolanda’s health continued to deteriorate. ” Things really changed in their relationship as Yolanda got sick, and then when her health worsened,” a source told People . “David travels all the time and they simply weren’t spending any time together.” The couple sold their Malibu home for $19.45 million in October, according to Variety .  On last night’s RHOBH premiere, Yolanda explained that she and her husband had moved to a condo he owned for easier access to medical care. “They just grew apart and the intense stress over her health and the disease was very hard on their marriage,” the source added. On December 1st, Yolanda’s co-star, Kyle Richards spoke about the split on Watch What Happens Live . “We didn’t know,” Richards told Andy Cohen. “But I think they’ve been struggling, and Yolanda’s been so sick and I don’t know if that has anything to do with anything, but it’s just so sad.” Yolanda and David were introduced through her ex-husband, Mohamed Hadid, with whom she has three children.

Yolanda Foster: PISSED at Co-Stars For Questioning Her Illness!

In the three years since Yolanda Foster was diagnosed with Lyme disease , friends and family have watched the former model’s condition to deteriorate to the point that she became unable to read, write or even walk on her own. Now, thankfully, Yolanda’s condition is improving, but she still struggles daily and has been open about the difficulties brought about by her condition on her moving Instagram diary . But while Yolanda has been an inspiration for those whose lives have been touched by Lyme disease, she may soon be a source of intimidation for a handful of Housewives who weren’t exactly loyal friends in her absence. Remarkably, Yolanda plans to return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in a limited role sometime in the near future. And according to Radar Online, the mother of Gigi and Bella Hadid has a score to settle with some of her castmates .  “She was beyond hurt after finding out that some of the ladies were asking a lot of questions and even suggesting that she didn’t even have [the disease],” said one source. “She was particularly upset with Kyle Richards and Lisa Rinna for not sticking up for her when she wasn’t around, and now she is ready to spill all of their dirty secrets!” The insider says Yolanda is particularly angry with Taylor Armstrong, who openly mocked Foster’s Lyme disease in front of the other women. “Yolanda plans on having heated words with Taylor Armstrong because she wasn’t even around at the height of her illness,” the source says. “Yolanda is now firing on all cylinders again,” said the source. “You don’t want to mess with her!” RHOBH has always had plenty of villains, but now a true hero is coming in to set things straight? We seriously can’t wait.

Taylor Armstrong Mocks Yolanda Foster’s Lyme Disease, Ignites Feud With Lisa Rinna

Last week, we learned that Taylor Armstrong will return to the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as a replacement for fired cast member Brandi Glanville. Lisa Rinna wasn’t on the show during Taylor’s first stint, so the two are just getting to know each other for the first time – and according to reports from the set, they really don’t like each other. According to Radar Online, the problem began when Taylor openly mocked Yolanda Foster’s illness and suggested the 51-year-old former model is faking it. As fans of the show know,  Yolanda was diagnosed with Lyme disease back in 2012. In the years since, Foster’s Instagram diary has served as an inspiration for thousands of Lyme disease patients – and offered bravely candid updates on the severity of her worsening condition.  Needless to say, the other ladies didn’t take kindly to Taylor’s suggestion that Yolanda is exaggerating for attention, and Lisa was the first to make her feelings known. “[Taylor] was openly questioning how sick Yolanda was,” says one insider. “Taylor said she was having major doubts about how serious the Lyme disease was for Yolanda, who wasn’t at [Lisa Vanderpump’s anniversary] party.” “Lisa Rinna was openly seething with anger because Taylor doesn’t even know Yolanda, and shouldn’t have even gone there! It quickly became obvious to Lisa that Taylor is being brought back this season to stir the pot.” Well, if it that was the goal, it seems producers are getting their wish. Taylor has already extended an olive branch to Lisa, tweeting, “@lisarinna I just saw Lip Sync Battle @SpikeLSB #LipSyncBattle hmmmm…why haven’t they invited us to face (I mean lip) sync it off? #RHoBH,”  Rinna ignored the reference to their shared fondness for collagen, but tweeted shortly thereafter, “My mom always said if you can’t say something nice about someone don’t say anything at all. #fail.” Hopefully, Lisa won’t continue taking the high road when the cameras are rolling. Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online in order to get caught up for what’s sure to be an explosive season.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6 Recap: BBQ Blues

On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6, Lisa Rinna and family went home to Oregon, while Eileen and Yolanda bonded in the 90210. Brandi Glanville? She probably doesn’t remember where she was, she was so hammered, while former hot mess Kim Richards is keeping it real these days. Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6 Online Lisa Rinna kicks things off on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6 , explaining that her beloved childhood home is being sold. Such an emotional “origins” story line feels a bit too early for a new cast member such as herself, but we’ll go with it. Lisa R. is nothing if not entertaining. Her namesake Lisa Vanderpump is back from Palm Springs and kills time filming with her swans and Ken, neither of whom seem particularly interested. At lunch, Lisa Rinna, Yolanda Foster and Eileen Davidson bond over kids. Turns out Yolanda and Eileen’s children went to school together. Small world! Eileen drops another hint that she’s having financial problems, or at least concerns, by complaining about how big her house is and wanting to downsize. Kylie Richards is not having financial problems. She plans a BBQ with her assistant, who is dubbed “Ladysitter,” which is maybe the dumbest thing ever. On the road with Lisa Rinna, we see her with her parents in an assisted living residence and while they seem very sweet, this feels extremely awkward. Maybe it’s just us? We’re not sure. But you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online to see Brandi get tanked, not Lisa’s parents be manipulated. Speaking of which, we’re getting to that good part. Just not before Kyle complains about how busy she is and needs to hire help. Humble Brag Hall of Fame. Eileen, Yolanda, Lisa Vanderpump, Ken, Brandi and Kim are at the BBQ, and it doesn’t take long for the innuendos, heated questions and claws to come out. Case in point: Yolanda asks Lisa why she didn’t invite her to Palm Springs, Lisa says she didn’t invite anyone, and Yolanda knows she invited Lisa Rinna. Classic. Almost as much so as Brandi Glanville sharing the details of her vagina rejuvenation with Eileen. And as usual, Lisa V. is not nice to Brandi. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Cast Photos 1. Brandi Glanville Brandi’s back, and boozy as ever. Spoiler alert: At some point this season, she smacks Lisa Vanderpump. You’d HAVE to be drunk to assault such a classy lady! These two could both use a time out, or a good spanking, or something, because they either just need to let it go and make up or just not talk period. In this case, however, Lisa does not need to be such a … you know. Brandi’s not innocent and we can’t believe this is all over Scheana Marie . But still. Brandi is at least trying, though, yet Lisa and Ken are horrible to her. At some point you’d think they would show a little … we don’t even know at this point. Ironically, the oft-troubled Kim Richards is the only one who seems like she really has it together. Kyle Richards can s–k it , as Brandi says, but Kim? She really seems like she’s turned things around, and is authentically genuine to boot. On an episode like this one, she shines even brighter than usual.
