Lovett or Leave It Presents: Bravo, America! (with Dorinda Medley)

Dec 24th, 2025 8:00 AM

On this episode of Bravo, America! - a new series from Lovett or Leave It - Dorinda Medley recounts her days during the wild west of Bravo, before housewives considered social media, glam squads, and consequences. And she talks about how reality TV helped her become the star of her own life, how years as an Upper East Side political spouse readied her for the high-heeled combat of Real Housewives, and how in both worlds the worst thing anyone can be is boring. She and Lovett also commiserate about being eliminated first from their respective competition shows, although Dorinda’s ouster from The Traitors was far less justified.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
