‘RHOBH’: Lisa Rinna And Eileen Davidson Successfully Shifted The Munchhausen’s Blame To Lisa Vanderpump

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH) has centered around Yolanda Foster’s Lyme disease and the speculation that she may or may not have Munchhausen’s disease. Much of the season, Lisa Rinna brought up the possibility of Munchhausen’s to anyone who would listen to her. All the sudden, after talking to Eileen Davidson, suddenly Rinna believed that Lisa Vanderpump was a master manipulator and was the one who came up with the Munchausen’s scandal. For many RHOBH fans, it seems all too convenient for Rinna that Vanderpump was there to take the heat off her back. It begs the question: Who is really the master manipulator, Lisa Rinna, Lisa Vanderpump or maybe it is soap queen Eileen Davidson?

Early in the season, All About The Tea reported Rinna would tell anyone who would listen from the other cast members to Yolanda’s hairdresser her suspicions about Munchhausen’s. Lisa ironically noted that she didn’t want to say the “M word” (Munchausen’s), but she suspected that Yolanda exaggerated her Lyme disease symptoms to get attention from others.

Rinna claimed that Vanderpump pressured her into saying on camera that Yolanda could have Munchhausen’s. Previously, the talks about Yolanda took place off the air. Of course, Vanderpump denied the accusation and said Rinna only brought it up to make her look like the villain, and wanted to place the blame for bringing up the word Munchausen’s at her feet.

Lisa Rinna went around to different talk shows before the season officially started and claimed that Bravo told her what her storyline would be, and her role was to bring up that Yolanda might have Munchhausen’s. Apparently, she knew about it and was on board with being the one to take the fall for the idea. At least, she was until her good pal Eileen Davidson suggested that Vanderpump was in her ear and manipulating her by making her the fall guy. Right away, the wheels in Rinna mind seemed to turn and she realized that if she battled with Vanderpump, it could be a big storyline for her, too.

Rinna and Eileen decided that the core of the problem must be Vanderpump’s issues with Yolanda, as they are fighting to be the queen of their group. Of course, Vanderpump denied that was the issue and accused Davidson of being the real master manipulator, which did a number on Rinna to confuse her. Before Eileen gave Rinna the talk about not allowing Vanderpump to manipulate her, she was friendly and seemed to get along with Lisa Vanderpump. Now, all the sudden, after her pow wow with Eileen she despises everything about her. Something stinks about it all.

Eileen took to her Bravo blog to tell her fans that she didn’t manipulate anyone and that she just wanted to be left out of the conversations about Yolanda’s (possible) Munchausen’s disease. It is apparent that Davidson didn’t want to upset anyone, including Yolanda, by implying she had a mental condition and she has a deep-seeded issue with Vanderpump.

“Just to clarify some confusion: I did not manipulate Lisa R. into saying the truth aboutLisa V. I’ve been hearing what Lisa V. has been doing all season long regarding Yolanda and what happened the day Munchausen was brought up. Lisa R. came to me many times with information about Lisa V.’s attempts to “manipulate.” I did not want to be in the middle of it anymore. I didn’t like knowing the truth and either having to pretend I didn’t or be the only one saying anything. So I asked Lisa R. to address it with Lisa V. herself.”

It’s hard to know who is telling the truth about it all. One thing that is for sure, the reunion show will be full of fireworks between Lisa Vanderpump, Lisa Rinna, and Yolanda Foster.
