I like Leah but why would she continue to stay in The Hamptons with the girls if her grandmother is surely on her way out? She is coming off a little bit as an attention whore, IMO..
Eboni talking about how much more educated she is than the other women made me cringe a little...but Lu's reaction was way over the top.

I had to mute Leah ..I'd be much nearer to my grandmother if she was dying. She gives herself a time out, then goes back to argue again. She's ruining this season for me..( attention seeker) I like Eboni, she makes sense, but when she said she was more educated than anyone at the table, as a guest, I think she was wrong this time..

Eboni didn't say that she was more educated than anyone, she said that she HAD more education than anyone. Which is true. There's a difference. Lu heard it wrong and then refused to listen when Eboni corrected her.

I was reading twitter , and looking at polls, and boy, people are really starting to think Leah is all wrong for this show. .I'm hoping this is her last season..😉

I usually try to give the new housewives the benefit of the doubt and give them more leniency because they are new. But I'm having a really hard time watching Leah this season. I'm finding less and less redeeming qualities in her.

Why Leah doesn’t bother going to see her grandmother - because she doesn’t give a rat’s patoot about her grandmother. No getting around it. Like the clothing Leah “designs,” she’s a trashy and combative teenager.

I am just getting to last week's episode and decided to come here to see what everyone posted about the June 3rd episode and I AGREE WITH ALL OF YOU. Leah has been ANNOYING this season. And with her Grandmother so sick and dying WHY IS SHE NOT WITH HER? This is such a SCREAMING season.........gawd. Heather is probably THRILLED she is not on the show anymore. J was on her best behavior all episode long.

I'll defend Leah a bit on the grandmother thing. In some cases, a family is blessed with knowing "this is the moment" and they can all be there. In other cases, the process is more prolonged and they don't know. From what she said it sounded like the end of her life had been prolonged. Who knows how many other times they had said "This is it" and she pulled through. It's very easy with hindsight to say "she should have been there damnit". But Leah didn't have the benefit of hindsight.

Were any Covid restrictions preventing her from being with her Grandmother? I know when my mother was in the hospital last month, she was allowed one visitor per day, but this season was filmed when things were still locked down pretty tight. Not sure if I saw where the grandmother is in a hospital or nursing home or at home.

Everyone was hugging everyone! Her daughter, LU, her daughter's friend. The nude fellow NO MASK. No social distancing from any of the ladies and if this was Halloween we know NO ONE had been vaccinated yet. Even when Heather arrived NO MASKS. Even the TWO weeks before this at that SCREAMING CRYING WHINING dinner.......NO MASKS anywhere!!!!

Leah's mother saw her mother, and Leah's sister said she was being bossy, because she wanted her to see her. I cant keep track , I know Eboni's grandmother is also very sick, Leah is making a big deal , more so than Eboni

I think it would take a person about 15 minutes being around Leah and Eboni to conclude that Leah is going to react more dramatically to just about anything between the two

It's no wonder they all seemed to have gotten it by now. But....to answer your question...they all have to take numerous covid tests before taping. I think they said they had to take one weekly. I'm assuming anyone that comes around them does too.

Eboni gets Sonja. I was happy to see sober Sonja again, she's way more interesting. I think Ramona wants to know more from Eboni, not so sure Lu does. I think no tears Leah, should leave the show, was she going for the Carrie look? Weird. I honestly thought, Leah was going to hit Heather.

Leah was going over the top in her reaction to Heather (expected). But I really like the way that Eboni responded to her. She didn't call her out, but in questioning her, she effectively put her in her place.

I think Leah's laments about her dying grandmother are all kinds of fake. If my mom called saying my grandmother is in the process of dying, and yes it's taking time, but she's either in a hospital, nursing home, hospice, or in some manner under care.... I would be there. She would be at least partly under my care. So would my brothers and sisters. None of us would go sopping around bleating about how out of sorts we are because, oh it's so awful, we're so to be pitied, we're so very pathetically grief-stricken.... and partying. We'd be there. We have been there in those circumstances.
Family is everything. Leah is nothing.

I don’t see the point of judging how a person reacts to death based on a criteria of “what I would do”. Not everyone handles death the same way. Just look back on a time when you’ve lost a loved one and consider the wide and varied responses you get from friends and family supporting you. Some are right there and know exactly what to say. Others care, but don’t say a word because they are so extremely uncomfortable with the subject and don’t know what to do. Lots of people believe they’d be there. Neat. Everyone can’t handle being there. And without the benefit of hindsight knowing her grandmother actually died, there’s no way of knowing how certain they were it was happening. Yes, her mom said it was happening. But if we all shared stories of loved ones dying, the time line would be wide and varied even for the same cause of death. There’s just no way of knowing until it’s all done. For anyone who is certain they’d know, I’d say congratulations for being lucky enough to have not lost dear loved ones.

What I wouldn't do, is say, announce it all on here, and then cry in every thread about it. That's what I see Leah doing. Eboni is going through the same thing, but doesn't need the spotlight..

Right ... because if we accept the notion that people react to death differently, than you, Leah, and Eboni are going to react differently. The compassionate person accepts that. I have a lot of thoughts about the person who doesn't, but I'll move on.

I think this was filmed in October of last year. I honestly can't remember what it was like last October but we were allowed indoor dining at 25% since I remember dining in on Thanksgiving.

Tonight was the first time Eboni was on the verge of losing me. Both with the dinner party and with Ramona I think she had the best of intentions but she really didn’t judge her audience well. I loved the idea of bringing black icons into the dinner, but it was too much for her to read them all. I think it would have gone better if they’d been written on place cards for everyone to go around the table and read their own. With Ramona, it seemed like she came in intent on pushing buttons and she did! Ramona has always avoided any conversation where she feels dumb. She made her uncomfortable in her own home. I think she could have backed off. She actually made me feel sorry for Ramona.

It’s surprising Eboni thinks any of these women - Leah could be the exception - might be open to learning about her black experience. If it doesn’t impact them, it isn’t worth discussing… and geez she’s pushing so hard.
Ramona was very clear when she told Eboni “I don’t want to be educated.” Well, yeah; not about diversity, not about politics or governance, not about anything other than me me me me me.
