    Real Housewives Recap

    Accusations and sequins fly on The Real Housewives of Dallas Reunion Part 1

    Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Dallas may be over, but we have two sequin- and Botox-filled episodes of a reunion to enjoy yet, so let’s get to it!

    As the reunion commences, we get the usual montage of the ladies preparing for the inevitable Dallas-sized drama about to ensue: Cary does handstands on the set, Brandi and Stephanie drink cocktails with their hair in massive curlers, and LeeAnne questions the humor in a dildo (talk about beating a dead sex toy) in an effort to get Kameron wound up even further.

    But first, Andy Cohen must greet every housewife and ask how they’ve been. When it comes time to welcome D’Andra, he asks if her mother had any advice for her going into the dreaded reunion, and she revealed that her mother recorded everything she thought might be brought up so D’Andra could better prepare. God bless that ancient sack of Botox and snow algae.

    Then we get the first of many montages, this one showing some of the more lighthearted moments on the show, from eating worms in Mexico to LeeAnne’s hot dog costume.

    Next montage: Brandi and Stephanie’s estrangement. If you recall, it was never totally clear how the falling out happened, so Detective Andy tries to uncover the truth.

    Brandi acknowledges that she “got pissed” when Stephanie commented on Brandi’s marriage in her Bravo blog. Stephanie maintains she was referring to Travis and Bryan getting hammered as “a slow-moving car crash,” not Brandi’s marriage. Brandi admits she was jealous of Stephanie’s friendship with Cary. Then they both start crying because they love each other so much.

    Andy switches gears, asking Stephanie about the Halloween party at which LeeAnne came dressed as “Two-Faced Stephanie.” Stephanie reiterates that it was very hurtful, while LeeAnne notes that Stephanie joked about it previously, bolstering her argument that Stephanie is, indeed, two-faced.

    “You’re incredibly mean, ugly, and rude to me in your confessionals,” LeeAnne says to Stephanie, who responds that she’s just trying to be funny, but she probably shouldn’t have been so dismissive of LeeAnne’s flesh-eating bacteria. Though, in hindsight, the doctor didn’t seem super concerned about it, and LeeAnne recovered quickly, so I think maybe we can joke about it now.

    Andy asks LeeAnne to imagine an opposite scenario in which Stephanie came to her party dressed as “Two-Faced LeeAnne.” LeeAnne says she would have asked her to go in the other room and talk, because she is “a problem solver.”

    “Isn’t that creating a problem to be solved?” Andy chimes in, wisely.

    LeeAnne immediately deflects, playing the “I have PTSD from my childhood” card.

    “I think a lot of us have PTSD,” D’Andra says, “but we don’t carry it around and bring it out whenever it’s convenient.” Damn, D’Andra! She is being savage toward LeeAnne tonight, and I am here for it!

    Brandi asks why LeeAnne didn’t offer her support last season when she was talking about her brother having PTSD, so LeeAnne offers up some killer side eye toward Brandi while mumbling, “Be careful.”

    The next viewer question comes from someone who wonders if Kameron is a real person or a performance artist acting like a real person. That question was sent in by me.

    Just kidding, but now I’m sorry I didn’t think of it, because that assessment is golden.

    Kameron explains that she doesn’t want to take anything too seriously, so she lives in a bubble. A pink bubble. A pink bubble in which dogs eat only pink kibble and produce pink poo.

    Turns out, that was the major flaw in her pink dog food plan (though her 5-year-old daughter thought of it immediately). Test consumers weren’t into pink poo, so that’s why the final iteration of Sparkle Dog is a mixture of pink and brown kibble.

    Anyway, next Andy shows a montage so we can all relive the “class warfare” between Pink Poo Barbie and Brandi. He asks why Kameron “looks down her nose” at Brandi, and Kameron asks how, exactly she’s doing that. Brandi refers to Kameron as “Big Bird” again, so Kameron counters by calling Brandi “Oscar the Grouch who lives in a trash can.” Then she says Brandi uses her jokes to attack people, while Brandi maintains Kameron uses her ZIP code to be better than everyone else.

    Kameron asks Brandi what she means by that, then accuses Brandi of deflecting (even though she, Kameron, asked the question). Andy asks her to define “trashy,” and she replies with “chasing someone down the beach with a sex toy,” which I’m pretty sure is straight out of Merriam-Webster. She’s a smart blonde.

    “You should never bully someone with a sex toy,” she says, stonefaced.

    Apparently, though, Brandi chose not to bring Sexual Chocolate to the reunion out of respect for Kameron, so that’s disappointing.

    Andy switches gears again, introducing a D’Andra montage. The most interesting thing we learn from the ensuing conversation is that D’Andra has two trust funds, one from Mommy Dearest’s business and one from “oil and gas,” aka Daddy Dearest.

    D’Andra is lovely but boring, so we quickly move on to a LeeAnne montage, in which we relive all of her many freakouts. Andy asks how many people think LeeAnne has benefited from anger management. Kameron recuses herself, which leaves a grand total of two votes coming from D’Andra and LeeAnne herself.

    Then he asks about the infamous police report, and LeeAnne denies its existence, which is weird because stories about the police report are all over the interwebs. But whatever, LeeAnne. Brandi admits to being scared of LeeAnne, and Andy points out that she has threatened to hurt three people in the last two years that we know of.

    The next montage is all about LeeAnne’s boob job (btw, the only one who hasn’t had breast surgery is Kameron, they admit), and how her surgery led to fights about doctors and whether “vagina doctors” should be performing plastic surgery. The most dramatic moment of the montage was, of course, LeeAnne threatening Cary behind the closed door in the doctor’s office, which has gone down in Real Housewives history as a top 10 moment for sure.

    LeeAnne claims that Brandi “baited” her into the threats she made, and apparently D’Andra and Kameron had come to that same conclusion, assuming the editors just cut out what Brandi had been saying to goad LeeAnne. Andy reveals that there was no additional dialogue — it was all a crazy LeeAnne speech, just as the episode showed.

    D’Andra makes a good point and asks where all the drama between LeeAnne and Cary came from. Cary reminds her of the accusations LeeAnne lobbed against her marriage last season, but that doesn’t explain LeeAnne’s vendetta against Cary.

    LeeAnne claims she has never gotten physical, and that her threats are “just words.” (OK, so now they aren’t “just hands” ... try to keep up.) She says all she can do is try to be better every day, but Brandi calls bullshit, noting the pattern of bad behavior followed by apologies and excuses.

    Andy puts Kameron on the spot, asking if she was as offended by LeeAnne’s outburst as she was by being chased with a dildo. Kameron actually defends LeeAnne, saying, “we don’t know what she was on.” Cary is quick with a retort: “Couldn’t you have 27 martinis and not say that?”

    In an attempt to break the tension, Andy asks if now would be a good time to bring Mark out. LeeAnne has a strange reaction to the news that Mark is on set. First, she says she thought it was a closed set, then she notes that other husbands are in town, then she storms off the set, shouting that the reunion is “very one-sided.”

    D’Andra reiterates that it is a closed set, but Cary notes that much was said about Mark this season, so he deserves a chance to speak his mind.

    Meanwhile, LeeAnne slinks out a side door, asking where the big security guards are and whispering ominously, “Don’t worry, Mark. You’re safe.”

    Game preview

    Dallas World Cup opener will feature 'best team never to win the trophy'

    Associated Press
    Jun 11, 2026 | 4:00 pm
    Orange Dutch Bus
    Dutch Orange Bus
    The Dutch Orange Bus will serve free burgers to fans at Hat Creek Burger Company.

    RIVERSIDE, Mo. (AP) — The road leading into the practice facility that the Netherlands is using for its World Cup base camp was supposed to be welcoming, what with “welkom” signs in Dutch making one of the world's top teams feel right at home. Even the street name Teal Rising Way has been temporarily changed to “Oranje Rising Way” for the next six weeks in honor of the team's orange colors.

    But perhaps someone should have reconsidered the white signs denoting important World Cup milestones for the Netherlands. Every one of them is a reminder that the country still has never won the tournament.

    “How far can we go? Yeah, hopefully all the way,” said defender Virgil van Dijk, who will be appearing in his second World Cup, and who will once again captain the Dutch team.

    The Netherlands begins group play against Japan at 3 pm Sunday, June 14 in Dallas. It will be the first of nine FIFA World Cup matches played at AT&T Stadium in Arlington - dubbed "Dallas stadium" for the tournament - and the first one in front of DFW crowds.

    A world-famous bright orange double-decker bus that serves as a symbol of Dutch soccer fandom follows the team and will make an appearance at a Dallas-area restaurant to help hype them up.

    “We know how difficult it will be,” the Liverpool player acknowledged after a recent training session held under an unrelenting Midwestern sun, which pushed the heat index toward triple digits in Missouri, as it has in Dallas. "But our full focus will be on Japan, first and foremost. That will get all our attention. We won't look too far ahead. But we all have big dreams, and we'll give all we have.”

    Three World Cup finals
    The Dutch have long held the unwelcome moniker of best nation never to have won the World Cup trophy. In fact, they are the only nation to have reached three finals without a triumph.

    In 1974, the Netherlands had returned to the World Cup after a nearly four-decade drought, and the dazzling play of Johan Cruyff had led it all the way to the final. There, the Dutch faced host West Germany and its star player, Franz Beckenbauer. The Netherlands scored quickly on a penalty kick, but West Germany answered with two goals before halftime, and the Dutch were unable to find the back of the net in the second half before a crowd of more than 78,000 at the Olympiastadion in Munich.

    It was disappointing, to be sure, but ask any Dutch fan and they will say 1978 stung even more.

    Once more facing the host nation in the final, Argentina led 1-0 at halftime before Dick Nanninga managed an equalizer in the 82nd minute. The game remained tied into extra time, when Mario Kempes scored his second goal of the game for host Argentines, and Daniel Bertoni added another for good measure before a boisterous crowd at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires.

    The Dutch reached their third final in 2010, when it faced Spain for the title in Johannesburg, South Africa. That match also was decided in extra time after the teams had played to a stalemate, with Andrés Iniesta scoring in the 116th minute.

    Reason to believe
    The Netherlands reached the semifinals in 2014 before inexplicably failing to qualify in 2018. But it was back for 2022 in Qatar with van Dijk leading the way. The Dutch rolled through group play while conceding a single goal, then dominated the U.S. in the round of 16 before losing to eventual champion Argentina on penalty kicks in the quarterfinals.

    But take away penalty shootouts and the Dutch are unbeaten in their last 12 matches at the World Cup. The only nation with a longer such streak is Brazil, which went 13 consecutive matches behind the brilliant play of Pele between 1958 and 1966.

    “I think we have a great group of players, especially human beings. We are getting along so well with each other,” van Dijk said. "But obviously it's all about the results. It's all about performing. All the players that are here, especially over the years — it's players that have played at the highest level, experiencing amazing things in their careers. Winning trophies. Playing for the biggest clubs.

    “They're coming together here and trying to make their country proud. It's the biggest thing you can do.”

    While the Dutch are favored to get out of their group, the path to the knockout rounds won't be easy. The trio of Japan, Sweden and Tunisia represent a tricky series of matches, and coach Ronald Koeman's team has struggled with injuries; defender Jurrien Timber has already left because of a groin injury and goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen is nursing a recent hip injury.

    It's unclear whether Verbruggen will play in Dallas Sunday against Japan.

    “We know Japan is strong. We've analyzed the team and the players,” Koeman said. “We spoke about their system, normally where they play out of, and the physical state of their players. It's difficult. But we believe in ourselves. We respect Japan, but we are Holland, and they will respect us. I think it will be an interesting match, and a difficult one.”
