We continue to have whiplash when it comes to the Maurico and Kyle separation. This week, we see Mauricio's mom post a picture of herself, her ex husband (Mau's dad), Mau, and a dark haired woman who is rumored to be Mauricio's love interest. We can't help but wonder - with all of this press, all of the paparazzi pictures, all of the social media posts and statements, is this all just an epic, intricate, and blatant trolling situation? We've got an email about THAT Vanderpump Rules video....

Hours before we sat down to record, we got some exclusive tea about Real Housewives of Atlanta and its future.
