Hello, everybody and welcome back to another episode of When Reality Hits. Oh my God, sorry, y'all. I have my bestie, Kristen Doty on today. When reality hits. wait i can't believe i did that i forget people are going to listen to this through like their speakers and that's going to be terrible on their ears i'm so sorry la la la la la well hello of course christin's been my bestie for over 10 years now wild valley co-star vanderpump rules o g tell me more podcast host oh my god and kaya's mommy and kaya's mom

Oh, my gosh. I want to talk to you so much about Kaya, of course, because we just realized you have not been on this podcast since, like, March or April of last year. That's insane. I cannot believe it. And I changed my Instagram bio to, I think it just has, like, emotional gangster or something like that. And then Kaya's mom. I'm like, that's my best accolade. Yeah.

I know. Mine says Cruz's mom. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's always been like, well, it's always been just a Kentucky girl living in a crazy world. And I've never changed it. I've been that way forever.

Well, it's true. And, yeah. Just a Kentucky girl live in a crazy world. And then it says Cruz's mom. And now it says L.A. Because I'm trying to date. And I want people to know, like, where I live. Yeah.

So I added that recently. Someone who lives in the Midwest. Exactly. Too hard to get to them. You need to be close. Yeah. Or at least. Yeah.

Or at least be able to, like, travel a lot. You can have hos in different area codes. Kristen wants me to have hose in different area codes. Zach wants me to have a roster. Let's just see how this goes. Before we start talking all things, baby Kaya, I have a question. When do dogs start their period? So according to Chat GPT, it gave me a lot more information than I wanted.

It starts off with female dogs don't have periods the way humans do. Thank you, Chat. We know that. But they go into heat. How old is, Dolly? So she was born in April. April, May, June, June, or September, October, eight months.

Eight months. Yeah. Between six and 12 months. Oh, my gosh. So she's going to start soon. So, like, medium breeds between six and ten months. Okay. So, obviously, I got to get Dolly fixed, like, ASAP.

Yeah, it's her vulva swollen. Oh, Lord. I don't know. If you guys are wondered why I ask that question, obviously, Kristen, is my dog lover sister. So we both are obsessed with dogs. And Kristen has white sheets and a white duvet. Yes. And obviously, you know, you should always.

spay and neuter your pets so i'm going to get dolly neutered yeah but spade she does have balls to chop off um but i'm going to have her spade but she went i adopted her so she wasn't spayed whenever i adopted her she only had like her first round of shots okay and then i had my surgery and stuff so like i wasn't really able to and i just started thinking about it i was like she's probably going to start her period soon one female reproductive surgery at a time for her tities and then we'll work on her regime yeah but okay so i need to do that soon or she's gonna i'm gonna have to put like a little diaper on her or something but i love her dolly's a good addition to the fam and if you guys don't know i talked about this a long time ago but christin is

actually the one who found dolly for me because she was so cute and up for adoption at a rescue and they temporarily named her stevie yes yeah i'm like brittana she's the same color of sissy her name temporarily is Stevie I know you're going to change it in a heartbeat but this just feels like Kismet This is like serendipitous And you've actually sent me a couple dogs That were up for adoption over the time

And obviously I think it's because I used to have my dog named Sophie For a while and she passed away Not that long ago So I was used to having three dogs And also it was definitely a time of my life Where I really needed something Like you know I really wanted to care for something else

And like you know bring on another dog And I think you knew that Yeah, before I get my chicken coop Which I don't know I don't know Kingsley You know those little Yorkies They're known for chasing rafts And everything else so

But still I really want that But yeah Kristen sent me a photo of Dolly And I fell in love And Kristen had just had baby Gaya And I go over to her house To surprise her And I was like just holding Dolly in my hand Yeah

I was like look what I got She was so tiny and so cute And now she's huge time I met Sissy. I met Monroe for the first time. We went to the grove and Monroe was like the tiniest little thing. She was. And Monroe's big. Yeah. I mean, not big, big, but.

She's, yeah. She's a he's looking right at her face and Monroe's like, what did you call me? She's a hefty little thing. Yeah. But Dolly, I thought, I didn't know how big Dolly was going to get or anything, but she's bigger than Kingsley, but not as big as Monroe. And I think she might be done growing. I think so, but we'll see. So, speaking of Kaya.

Yeah. The cutest little baby ever. I love her so freaking much. My blue-eyed blonde-haired pale see-through. Her skin's literally like see-through. It's so funny because she looks exactly like Luke and I don't see you in her at all yet. I don't either. There's faces that she makes that look like me.

Like when she smiles really big, she scrunches her nose the same way I do. And that just melts my heart. Yeah. So hard because my scrunchy nose reminds me of like. like my grandpa because he would always like point to my scruntinos and so when I see her do that it makes me think of my grandpa and then I think of me and then I'm like okay and she has like my mom's chin like we have this weird chin but like that's literally it I think like also the older that she gets and like the girlier that she obviously she's very girly she's got these long eyelashes

she's so beautiful but once she gets like a little older and like starts losing the baby face I think that's whenever you're really going to like come out in her I just don't think so I truly don't think she's ever going to look like me. And I'm fine with that. I think she's going to have my personality. She's so sassy. She's such a handful. And I'm fucking here for it.

Oh my gosh. She is so beautiful. We both somehow have blue-eyed, blonde-haired kids. I know. I feel like on Thanksgiving, like I saw a cruzy look at her. And he like gave her like this little smile. And I was like, she looks like you, dude. Yeah.

They're going to look like cousins, if not siblings. Once Akaya gets a little bit older. Oh, my God. So how have you been feeling since you became a mother? It, I mean, you know firsthand. Like, it is so much harder than I ever thought it was going to be. Yeah. But way more fulfilling than I could ever imagine.

Yeah. I really don't remember. I've heard my friends say this, like, till they're blue in the face. But I don't remember what it's like not to have her. Exactly. It's so fucking weird. Yeah. It's so weird because you can't imagine your life without them.

No. And it's also a love that you've never felt before. No. Like you love your partner. You love your dolls. You love everything. But like once you see your kid for the first time, it's just this amazing new feeling that takes over you. Yeah.

And if you are pregnant out there or, you know, whatever, or you want to have a baby, like, people will tell you this until they're blue in the face. And you can say that you understand it. Just like you don't understand. Like when people tell you like, you're not going to sleep for the first two months. You're like, okay. It's like that in a way. like you just don't know until it happened. Yeah.

Those are very different things, but you know what I mean. And that's really what it is. Like, but it is really, really hard, but not in a way that I would trade it for anything. Of course. Like, I'm not like, oh, it's hard and it sucks. But it's just like every day is so different. Every week is so different. And some days, like her smile always just makes every day perfect so it doesn't even matter.

Exactly. It could be like I haven't, I slept like two hours for the last three nights in a row. And then, like, her nanny comes over and she gets so excited because it's like her little BFF. Yeah. But I'm usually home when the nanny's there. Like, I just have her there so I can get shit done, essentially around the house. Yeah. Because I'm, like, glued to Kaya 24-7.

Mm-hmm. But then, like, they'll go for a walk. It's like, today they went for a walk. They come back inside. And I was like, is it a beautiful day outside? And she just does this big smile and she, like, squeals. And I was like, oh, my God, I'm melting. So cute.

she's so adorable i love her so much and i'm her emergency contact just so everyone knows that's true her pediatrician has brittany's phone number and addressed that is the truth okay y'all um what's your favorite thing about being a mom so far god it's so general and it's impossible i know but if you had to pick one thing obviously there's so much that you love yeah i really la la la la it's like if something is bothering her and we get past it so if she's frustrated because she can't poop and then she makes a poop it's like the greatest thing of my whole day like this morning she had a huge poop and I was like this isn't fun but also like oh my god you made a poopie and then she's super excited because now she feels better yeah she has this

little cough right now and like that's going to be done and from as long as I've had her it goes away after X not a day so I'm like we're about to get past it and then she just feels like a million times better right now it's like bath time we have a bath almost every single day and don't really use soap that much because we bat we bat we bat so often because she just loves baths all of a sudden and like girl if I could stand in there for three hours and just pour hot water on her I would do it yeah she would love it maybe that's my favorite thing right now and I play the bob marley song called kaya on repeat because it's such a a fun song, even though I found out that weed in Jamaican slang is K-A-A-A-A-A-A-B-A-M-R-M-R-Marly has a song called Kaya, and it's like, got to have Kaya now, got to have Kaya now. And it's like the super fun, like awesome song. So we just listen to it during the bath. Oh, I love it. Oh, my God.

That's so cute. Listen, I can only listen to Wheels on the bus so many times today. Yeah, I'm as Rachel. Hello. Yeah. So your favorite thing is like overcoming new challenges and like learning. seeing like how she is growing, I'm sure, every single day. Every time something's like new and fun and cool or she's or she's feeling better because of something, it's just like so exciting.

Yeah. It's like winning the lottery. You're such a good mom. You should be very proud. Okay. So what do you think has been like the biggest challenge that you have faced since becoming a new mom? Everything. Right now it's crib training.

Fuck that. Yeah. Crib training is difficult. It is like the hardest thing in the world because I am the anti-anti, anti-cry-it-out method woman. I struggle to let her open her eyes and like move around and like figure out how to like get herself like from her side to her belly or whatever. It is like just that like or if she protests, like I'm learning the difference between she's not crying. Yeah. She's like, yeah.

Like she's like, nah, you know, making those noises. I'm like, she's fine. I have to let her figure some things out. that's the hardest thing for me right now. Maybe that's what it is. The hardest thing is like letting her figure shit out on her own because I just want to like fix, fix, fix. Yeah. But I know that it's really good for her.

But crib trading is not for the week. Of course. I said up until, I don't know, she's the first two months of her life, you know, you have to wake them up every three hours to feed them no matter what. If they're formula babies, if they're breastfed babies, doesn't matter. That's just the rule. And therefore, you literally don't sleep. this is a trillion times harder. Yeah.

Because she's like a person and she moves and kicks and scratches and just in cries and protests. And I'm just like, oh my God, what do you want? I wish I could like, I wish I could just tell her like, if you just lay your head down and get this much sleep, you'll be so happy. Yeah. She's like, she's like, you know, now I'll go to sleep whenever I want to take a nap. Yeah. Last night she, we tried, like it was for an hour. So Jill, our dog, you know, Brittany, you know, like.

And if you follow my Instagram, sorry, Jill got sick. She had an emergency surgery. We're waiting on some biopsy results, but the surgery went well. Jill's back at home with us last night. Thank God. So Luke has to keep 24-hour, 24-7 supervision on Jill. And so I'm like, I got Kyah. Like, we got this.

So I get her in her crib. She's dead asleep. She starts waking up every 10 minutes for a whole hour. And one of the times I went in there, I tried to give her a passie. And she pulled it out. and she chucked it behind her crib and I was like I think we're done now you're going to come in bed with mommy co-sleeping let's do it yes I mean listen I even wrote you this this morning I heard this advice from so many other people that were like you know well she's out of that phase now that

scary phase like she can lift her head up it's not like it's the same obviously she was in a snoo cruise was in a snoo they're yeah she's totally they're dipped in it's not that same it's not that scary time right now um but i was saying to christin earlier like they're only little for so long yeah so do whatever you want to do and i heard that advice i was like oh my gosh you know what that's so true because crus still comes and sleeps with me a lot and he's four years old and his dad the other day was saying why is he still sleeping with you why is he and i was like jacks he's only going to be this little for so long and he was like well you know they're meant to be they're meant to want to be with us. Exactly. They're meant to want to be attached to us. Yeah.

I very much like I'm I haven't read the attachment parent style like book or anything I don't know if I'm full attachment style but like I'm very much like whatever she needs right now yeah yeah at this age like I would love for her to sleep in her crib for her own mental like for her mental health I don't know if she has mental health right now but like so she can get a really good night sleep in a bed that's big enough for her so she can learn to roll so you know but right now she can roll from back to front then she is on her belly and she starts panicking and I'm like girl you just got to roll back over but she doesn't know so I'm like if it means you come and lay in bed with me and then you get eight hours of sleep bless it yeah exactly and even for Cruz right now he's four years old almost five like he doesn't sleep with me all the time but sometimes he just wants his mommy and he wants to sleep with me and I think that is

just fine it is girl I have friends who literally have six and seven year olds who still co-sleep yeah it's whatever works best for your family and I firmly believe in it and my personal feelings the cry it out method is a hard hell no for me yeah I don't I can never do that even our pediatrician told us like I think at her four month appointment whenever we wanted to start doing that because she's so she was too long for the snoo at that point yeah like she was getting there so he's like whenever you're ready he's like I know you don't you've already expressed you don't believe in that he's like but you could probably get her sleep train in three days the second we got in that car I was like Luke don't you even

mention it i don't care if like there were conversations we had like what if you know the doctor had said like well christin what if you just leave that leave the house or leave where you can't hear her and luke does it i'm like absolutely fucking yeah like no i need to be there i need to see everything i'm not going to have her ball it out and just because i can't hear her like it's going to change thing yeah no she still feels abandoned and not on my watch exactly i could never do that either and the parents that do that and it worked for you good for you Everybody can do whatever they want as a parent. Whatever works for you and your family.

Yeah. Whatever works for you. And it goes by so fast. I'm an empath. Yeah, yeah. Same. I am too. And I just,

I couldn't. No. And it's natural as moms like when they cry, it's biological that when our babies cry that we literally feel it in our bodies. That's a biological thing. That's not us just being like helicopter parents. Yeah. I agree.

I think a lot of moms would agree to. I agree. I'm like, come sleep with me, but I love you so bad. Oh, my goodness. Okay, let's switch gears. Okay, let's do it.

This was our third BravoCon. Yes. Fourth. Fourth. Was it our fourth? Fourth. I feel like it was our third. Did you go to the first one with the Vander Crawl?

Yeah, like whenever Sanevall dress up as a girl. That was the second one. What was the first one? The first one was like, we had a Vander crawl where people, we went from bar to bar to bar. I don't know what year that was. That was at BravoCon, though? It was part of BravoConne. I don't remember.

It was in New York. We had two in New York and two in Vegas. Yeah, I definitely went to one in New York. I don't know if I went to two in New York. Yeah. So was the other one before I was on Vanderpump then? I don't remember. All I remember is what I wore.

It's literally all I remember. Yeah. You might not have been there. I'm not sure. It had to be like 20. I feel like you would have been on it. Probably like 2016 or something like that. Gosh, I don't know.

Why can't I remember? I can't either. We'll have to look it up. My memory is terrible. Anyway. Yeah. it's our third or fourth bravo con we've been to a shit ton of bravo con and this one was amazing i love being in Vegas it's not hard for us to get there it's so easy the venue is humongous at caesar's like

i'm so grateful it's in Vegas because the flight's so short for us and i got to bring kylel exactly like so easy and and with saying with crews being right here like it's so easy if i had to get back or anything like that 40 minute flight exactly it was so so much fun um what was your favorite like panel or interactive experience that you got to do this year so the bravos were insane yeah they were i could not believe the production that like went into like the stage and the amount of people that were there so just being there like made me feel like such a celebrity like i'm like we have to sit at these little tables oh we have the golden gloves yes it was just so like it was bananas dude and then but my favorite panel

like I really like doing Watch What Happens Live even though looking back we didn't really talk that much but like when we got to go to watch Happens Live for the number one guys and girls in the group Oh yeah yeah yeah Because we got to go spend time Like before we got on stage

Like backstage All the girls So like that was fun We all like got there on these buses Whatever are these bus vans And then they split the guys and girls up right When we got there So we were in this like girls green room

And they brought us like a cocktail and they had like a charcutory board and they were just mirrors and little glam tables and they had these little boxes with like I think I asked for like boob tape or something and they were like oh there's little boxes everywhere and it was like tampons and boob tape and Advil and just everything you could ever imagine you might need as a chick yeah they had them all over the place and then we just got to hang out with those girls and get to know everybody better like we already you know we've been around some of them a lot but not all of them like you know Amanda and Lindsay. I'm like, yay. But, like, I, I, I'd not really met Leva. I don't think I'd met Leva at that point.

Oh, yeah. I love her. And, like, she's the best mom ever. Sally. Yeah. Sally for the first time. Maddie from Southern Hospitality. So that was just really fun that we had, like, a little bit of time to hang out with Just Us Girls. That was really fun. I loved that as well. It was pretty cool. And then I got to do the interview with Lindsay with Chanel. Oh, yeah. That was like one of the best interviews I've seen for Bromicon cackling. Chanel is hilarious. She's so good on the carpet. She has to be like a perma carpet hose. She has to be. And she's so gorgeous. Yeah. Stunning. And I like, but that one was so funny because Lindsay's just like baby daddy. My baby daddy. Yeah. Well, she said, what's your baby daddy's name? And I interrupted and said, it's just baby daddy. Yeah. And then I just turned into this whole thing. And then I found out because Chanel went to dinner with Rihanna. after Bravo Kong when she was in LA

and Rihanna watched the video and thought it was so cute and funny and I was like she knows who I am and I know she watched Vanderpom

Yeah and the valley and the valley and she's DMed Katie Maloney before but like I don't know I'm like just because she watches the show doesn't really mean

she knows who I am but I'm like she watched a video and I just oh my God I can't believe it it's freaking Rihanna it was her finty carpet Fenty Beauty carpet

and she like literally talked about the valley on the carpet I do. It's like my favorite makeup company. Hello, Rihanna. I love you. I went to catch in here in L.A. once and Asap Rocky was there. And I was so close to walking up to him and saying, hi. I'm not trying to interrupt you or do anything like that. But I know your wife Rihanna watches my show. And if you could just tell her, I'm Brittany Carty from the Valley, loves her. I was so close. And I was like, should I do it? Should I do it? Should I do it? I was. I was trying to work up the courage all freaking night to go tell Asa Rockie. Like, what do you have to lose? To say hi to Rihanna for me.

And I'm like, I wasn't a weirdo because your, your, your wife or whatever watches my show. So I'm not weird. I'm just trying to say hi. Tell her I said hi. Tell her I said hi. Yes. But stuff like that, like, amazes me. Like, I cannot believe that freaking Rihanna watches the show.

It's like the degrees of separation. Yeah. And like, and we're at BravoCon. And all of these people, tens of thousands of people come just for that. And so then my, actually, now in hindsight, my favorite, favorite, favorite part. So that was a blast doing the number one guys and girls in the group because we got to like hang out with the girls that I, we don't normally get to spend a lot of time with. Yeah. But Bravo Bazaar when the James May booth. That was like something I've never seen before. We've never had a James May booth there before.

We did a Witches of WeHo booth. I did for like a couple of years ago for like a minute. But doing James May, which is like my baby with my business partner, Suzanne there. And just the people that came up were so wonderful. Like standing in line for an hour to buy t-shirts just to like come say hi. Yeah. And the amount of women that like spoke to me about their fertility issues or like that they were pregnant now. And it was just like it makes everything we do so worthwhile. Oh my gosh. For sure. You know. For sure. I talked about, I've talked about that, you know, since I've been, you know, the past couple weeks on the podcast is like how amazing the fans were and how I was so grateful for that. And how many women came up to me to and talked about like how grateful they were. I talked about my son and his autism diagnosis and how I, you know, talked about what I went through and toxic relationships and this and that. So like. Those are things that aren't really highlighted very much on shows. Yeah. And people feel seen. Like some people watch our shows because they just want to be entertained. they want an escape from their reality.

Yeah. So they jump into ours. And some people watch our show because they want to feel seen and heard. Yeah. And people like us are going through it too and talking about it on a bigger platform. Yeah. So it really makes it all worthwhile. It really does.

It's been, gosh, that was, the way that the crowd at our Valley panel, like, clapped whenever they talked about my ex not being on the show this season. Like, that was just, I could have. cried yeah you know like that was just so beautiful to me because it's been a journey you know it's been a freaking journey so to have that support was just like woo that was that was awesome they love you girl um who was your favorite bravo lead that you met this year because yeah i know you've known a lot but we always seem to meet new people like we're always meeting gea oh yeah she's right so it's like weird because some of them i feel like i already know them but then when we start chatting. So like Gia had like waved high to me and I did a panel with her and that we were both

on the same panel and like she waved to me in the green room and I was like, oh my God, she's just so cute and then we start and then afterward I started chatting with her about special forces. Oh Lord. Yeah. And just saying like I knew what you went through because you've told me personally. Yeah. So I'm just like I could never. I could never. Yeah. I just know me and I could never. Yeah. She did amazing. Yeah. And she's adorable. And then. Shannon from OC when we were on the bus with her. Oh, yeah. Talking about dogs.

Shannon Bador. Badoria. Yeah, talking about dogs and just like, I don't know, like things like that are just like so fun. Mary Crosby is just so much more fabulous than I could ever imagine. Really, the salt, because I'm not like a housewife's watcher. I'm not a bravo watcher. Yeah. But meeting a lot of the Salt Lake girls maybe want to watch their show.

Exactly. Yeah. Everybody was so cool and so. chill yeah you know um was there any drama that you witnessed that maybe i wasn't aware of nothing you don't know really what i was really hoping to witness was just like and i don't mean this in a some no as i'm saying it in my head not in a petty way i was hoping like someone's shoe was going to snap or something like kind of like uh what was her name that like she came down the escalator and her lo batons got stuck yeah or like you know the victoria secret like runway show

and like the heel breaks and you're like oh my god but they can't have going like that's what I'm not to me I didn't want that to happen to me yeah just to someone where because I could be like you're epic yeah like what a moment but drama no um you know the tom sand of all of it all I talked about it on my podcast you did not talk about it on yours I did not I had Jane it on after Bravo con but we it was on my list of things to talk about but we talked about so much other stuff that like it just didn't really come up but it makes more sense to talk about it with you because obviously your history and you just know him a lot better. bless his heart. You know what I mean? Bless his heart. I don't have like an issue with

Sandoval. No, me either. He's so fucking extra and he is who he is and like bless his heart and I hope he lives like a wonderful life and shit. But I had heard, I mean, from almost the night I got to Bravo Con that that Thursday, it was just like everyone that knew our whole group of friends. just kept being like, Tom and Victoria, fight all the time. And it was like all our friends that went to Hawkinson for Kyle Cook's DJ set. Tom and Victoria are fighting. They go to like another after party. Tom and Victoria are fighting.

Lindsay Hubbard told me, I didn't even realize someone got it on camera, but she had told me like she scolded Tom because I forget, she told me like after one of our events that we were like on a bus together. And she goes, yeah. She's like, I was like, bro, enough. Yeah. Like you are just making a fool of your. yourself and like well i think that that was the thing that went viral it was like a fan or somebody

caught because a lot of people like at bravocon would find out where everybody was staying and would like sit around the elevators or different things like that you know and i think that people were secretly recording things that we didn't know about for sure i've seen some things yeah but when that was one of them yes lindsay like having a moment with tom and then also victoria but lindsay had told me about that far before i even knew there was a video of Yeah. Yeah. And she even said like, Victoria, I think walked up to her and said something like, like, I don't know you. And Lindsay was like, okay, fair. You're totally right. And I am completely out of my element and even having this conversation. Yeah. But Lindsay was like, it's just like, Tom, haven't you done enough? Like stop creating drama. Yeah. So the night that you and I, the only night that I went out. Well, well, hold on. And let's rewind into the Lindsay video really fast before we get to the night with me and you. So a lot of people thought it looked like Lindsay or, Lindsay was being yelled at about Tom and Victoria, but I think what was happening was that Tom and Victoria were fighting

and Lindsay was trying to diffuse the situation. Like I don't think that she was fighting with them. I think she was trying to take them away because also in the lobby there's a bar there and a lot of people would hang out there and we were taking photos there and there was all this stuff. There's fans. There's industry executives. Like there's NBCU heads of everything. The heads of the heads are in there.

Like there's a lot of big people. No, Lindsay absolutely was like, Tom, like enough. Yeah, she felt very like maternal in that moment as a new mom. And she was like, I felt like I had to like school him as a mother. Like, what are you doing right now? Like, why are you fighting in front of all these people? Right.

Okay, so continue. So then when, yeah, so the one night that we went out, it was after our number one guys in the girl, number one guys in the girls group situation. Brittany and I got back to the hotel.

My baby's sleeping. She's with Luke's mom and sister. And so Brittany and I ran upstairs through sweats on. You had a little crop top sweatshirt on with your, it was the first time you said you ever let your belly show. I have a cute photo of us in the elevator in front of the mirror and your little tummy and your little belly button. Oh my gosh. Yeah, that's the first time since I had cruise that I've ever showed my belly. Yeah.

And it was so cute. I know. I kept being like, I'm going to cry. I'm going to cry. I'm going to cry because I never thought that I could ever show my stuff. Like, I know this is off track of where we're going. But like, literally after my mom makeover, I never thought I'd be able to like wear a bikini again or actually before my mommy. makeover i never thought i'd be able to wear a bikini again wear a little crop top where anything like

that yeah and and this wasn't like some crazy crop top this was just a sweat pants sweat suit suit on and it wasn't a baggy sweatshirt it was like a fit more fitted yeah shorter it wasn't like sheena's crop top wedding dress yeah it was like just like it was just like right above my belly button but i was like i was so nervous we and christin were getting ready and i was so nervous to go down because I was like, I cannot believe I'm getting ready to go down with my belly showing. Yeah. But I did. And it was good.

And you were cozy. Yeah. So we go down and we're meeting Tom, Schwartz, and Kiana, his girlfriend. And we're meeting Brittany's brother. Yeah, we love Keehe. Yes. And we're meeting Brittany's brother who was in town. Yes.

For his birthday. And so we were all going to go play roulette together. So Brittany and I are down there. We're like heading, we're in the Mandalay Bay. And we're just like, Tom and Kiana, like, we'll meet you at like the first. bar we see so we have a meeting spot and then we'll all go find somewhere to play so brittany and i go into this bar and the first person we see is freaking tom sandoval and he makes eye contact and we're like okay here we go and i didn't see victoria at first i just saw tom and he had i don't know if they

were his drinks but he had all these different drinks lined up in front of him like a martini and a shot and a like a fancy cocktail and i was like oh tom i made some comment yeah fancy cocktails he comes running over to us victoria comes and says hi there a few sheets to the wind and And Brittany and I are like, okay, we, we need some drinks. We got to, we got to go. So we go. Because it's so annoying whenever people are already drunk and you're not drunk yet. Like that is so annoying.

Hence by I never went out when I was pregnant. Yeah. Why would I want to go to a bar when I'm pregnant? So we go. They were being nice. It wasn't anything bad. Yeah. They were fine.

Yeah. And so we go, like, we're leaving and we're texting Tom and Canada, but we go to the other side of the bar. Yeah. So they can't see us. So we just want to order a quick drink. And then we're going to. walk and go meet Tom Schwartz and Kiana. And Sandoval, Victoria, come and meet up with us. So previous to this, I did say something to Sandoval about how Luke was out with them the night

before for Kyle Cook's DJ set. And I did, I don't even know why I brought this up in hindsight, but I was like, I didn't really appreciate Victoria blowing Luke's phone up at 4 in the morning. Yeah. The phone was in the bathroom. His alarm would go off and I see all these mistexing calls. and I'm like, we have a effing baby. Yeah. That was my only point. Yeah. I don't give a shit of Victoria is texting Luke.

Yeah. That's Luke's problem. Yeah. But like, we have a baby and we work. You know, we're here to work. Yeah. To get up early. So I say something like that to Tom.

Brittany, I go the other side of the bar. We grab a drink. Next thing, you know, there are Tom and Victoria. And Tom had to go run and tell Victoria what I said. So she comes over and she's like, I don't want to fuck your man. And I was like, no one said you did. Oh my God. This is so awkward.

And I'm like, no, girl. Not what I meant. this is what I meant and Brittany's like hi how are you and like Victoria's like side hugging you and you're like being so nice and I'm just trying to like get Tom the fuck away and I'll look you know what I'm saying what I'm saying I don't care and I said it on my podcast and Zach and Luke Zach and Luke was on mine and Luke's podcast Luke sometimes isn't around so he was on this time and of course Tom Sandoval fucking text Luke Luke Luke was in Colorado last week I get a text from Luke Tom Sandoval texts me and he is mad

About what you said on the podcast And I was like I said what I said I said the truth Sorry like if you don't What was it about? Just not say warm Same warm things about you don't fuck it up

What'd you say on your podcast Just about like this part? Like how Oh wow So you just talked about how Victoria was calling him In the middle of I And then she was like

I'm not trying to fuck you man Oh my God Krista Yeah So he got mad about it And he got mad Like we were quote unquote Talking shit about it I was like, I'm not talking shit.

I was talking a little bit of shit. Yeah, but I could have said a lot worse. But it was just like annoying to get those calls or to see those calls in text. Yeah. And it was annoying. Well, it was because it was so late. It's not like you like actually. It's annoying to be around drunk people.

Yeah. Fucked up. Exactly. And it was so late. So you were already like in your bed. And yes, your Luke's mom and sister were there, but they were in a different room. So if you were coming back and everything was fine, Kai was asleep. You're not trying to, like, wake her up and everything, you know.

So. Mom's get it. Mom's, I get it. That's what it was about. It wasn't that you thought something was going on, obviously. And I told Victoria that. I was like, girl, number one, you couldn't fuck my man if you try. But, like, you didn't try.

I don't think you were blowing up Luke. I know she was, Luke had even told me the next day. I guess she and Tom got in a fight. So that's why she was calling Luke. So it's like, I divorced the Tom Sandoval relationship. drama many moons ago yeah we don't need it back in our in our lives again so like i wish them the best but y'all need fucking couples therapy yeah i wish them the best too but it's crazy because like i'm not around them very often whenever i am they're very nice to me so nice very you know and

she's warm and loving he's nice everything i said i'm not trying to hate on tom sandoval yeah he is he is but it's like your lifestyle doesn't match mine yeah yeah yeah yeah you're can go out and party and fight and fucking fight and do whatever you do, that's not the life that I lead anymore. So like, when we at BravoCon, that's not the life I lead either. Right. Should we talk about what they said or is that going to start? No. Because I forgot to add this in. So we shouldn't or we should. No. So no, we so we fucking should because on my podcast, Zach informed me that Victoria apparently at the bravos, she was seated with like, I think Lacey and Melissa. Okay. And Lacey, for the people listening, Lacey is Jesse's girlfriend. Melissa is

Jasmine's fiance. Yeah. And Benji was there. And Benji. Zach's boyfriend. Boyfriend, of course. And there was some conversation that was had where, where Victoria said, like, oh, I don't, oh, I don't watch the Valley. Like, I don't even know. Oh, I don't even know. Like, just so aloof and so just clueless, like, oh, I don't know anything about any of that. Odd. Because what did she say, Brittany? Come on, Britney. Yes. They came up to us and both of them, by the way.

They were like, which was a nice thing to say. We're not talking shit, but it's just, it just, you know, if they're saying that they don't watch the Valley and stuff, whatever. Not even aware of it. Yeah, not even aware of it. They told both me and Kristen that they are huge fans of ours. Yes. And what else?

Which is such a sweet thing. Yeah, it is. Which one was like, oh my God, no, we love you. We're such. We're huge fans of both of you guys. Yeah, we're huge fans of both of you guys. Which is such a kind thing to say. Yeah.

So either you're completely full of shit or you're completely full of shit on the other stick. Yeah. Like you're either watching it and are fans of what we're doing or you're not watching it and just saying it because you're trying to be nice to us. Yeah. You know? Kiss our us. Yeah. So it's just like, I'm saying what you mean and mean what you say kind of gal.

And you can always change how you feel. But like say what you fucking mean and mean what you say. So I don't want anyone to, like, light a fire under my ass and, like, put their lips against my butt hole. Like, I don't. Wait, light a fire on your ass and put their lips against your bow. Yeah. Yeah, but no, they definitely did say that. And, you know, very sweet coming from Victoria, but whenever Sandival saying it to me and Kristen, who we filmed Vanderpump rules with him for so long, it was kind of like odd.

I mean, again, nice. We appreciate it. But, like, he's known us for years. You dated him for years. he was literally in my wedding like he he was our friend yeah for a long time so i mean that i'm a fan of yours christin obviously yeah but it was just kind of a weird it was a weird it was a weird ass bravo con moment yeah it was a weird bravo con moment that only being christin of course would ever experience together yeah no shit no shit and then i was just being like thank you so much

and christin just kept turning around and just you know just trying to like we got to go get the conversation over with and we're trying to get the drinks and, you know, move on and go play roulette and do whatever. Which, by the way, I did really get at roulette that night. I kept hitting. Fuck you and you put it all on red. I kept putting it all red. I won like 18 times in a row. The entire board was red. And I was like, Brittany, I have to go against you. I have to go black. And I did it like three times and it just kept going red. And I was like, I'm done. I'm going to go cash in what little things I have left. While you walk away with all your money, Viva. Las Vegas.

It was a fun night, though. But yeah, that was a strange experience. I guess that will go down in Bravo history, strange experience. Yeah. I wonder if you or I are going to get a text thinking that we talked crap tonight. No. Tom will listen to this and he will text Luke and tell him he's mad. Or Jacks or something.

Like, no, it's not going to be. It's not going to be us. It's going to be someone that's going to tell us, I guess. For sure. We're not talking shit. We're just talking about how strange that was. Weird as hell. It was so strange.

Okay. now before we go on to the fan questions that wrote in about because a lot did of course because i love you um i like to ask two questions to everybody that comes on let's do it if you could be on any other reality tv show what would it be and why i don't remember what i said last time but traitors traders you might have said i might have said i might have said traitors yeah but it's like the only one i can think of after i did the goat or i would i don't know if they're doing another goat but if they do, I really want to go back on it and like not be, I don't want to try to win the money this time, but I want to like just be there to like talk to people in the house or something. That was like my dream after I finished the goat because that was such a fucking fun show.

Yeah. But traitors that would love to do and I would please don't ever make me a traitor. Yes. Just make me faithful. I think that would be fun too. Who, if you can name one reality TV star, who is your favorite reality TV? TV star at the moment. Chloe Kardashian. Yeah, I love her. Yeah. I'm very big into the Kardashians right now. Like, I just, I love that show. I'm, I don't care who's a hater. I love the show. The show that Kim's on with Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts, um, fucking Glenn Close.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, the cast is amazing. Like, oh my God. I heard like such bad reviews of that show. I really like it. I think people just want to hate on Kim. I think so. But I really love. I really love. of the Kardashians. Like I just, I love the family dynamic and I'm just obsessed with Chloe. I always have been

and I always will be. And Chloe's always been so nice to us too and like a supporter of like our shows and everything as well. I don't really, we talked about this

while we were in Glam one time. Like I don't watch the Kardashian shows, but I've seen a couple here and there because my mom loves it. Because you watch the British Bake off and every other baking

show. I know. I love baking and cooking shows. It's like my thing. Right now I'm like really into beat Bobby Flay. And I'm like, damn,

why is he becoming hotter? every episode that I watch. I'm very in. It was on when I got here today. I was like, okay, I'm all for it. It's such a good show. And then he has that, like, show about the Titans where, whatever. Bobby Flay is amazing.

But even though I don't. Who's your favorite reality star right now? My favorite reality star right now. Goodness. Ugh. That's hard because it never gets turned around on me. Here we go. Okay.

Listen, I know that Countess Luann. is like old school but meeting her at BravoConn she was like my favorite person I bet her personality is amazing she took a shot with me backstage before we did our panel she like some oh you did have a I did a panel with her she um sang to like because my brother and sister-in-law came backstage and stuff with me she sang to us and did all this stuff she came down to the bar with me and me and her and Jasmine were like getting drinks and taking pictures like she was I she's so down to earth like more than I would have ever expected. I need to be more present next Bravo Cone.

Yeah, it was, well, you had a lot going on. Your daughter was there too, so you were worried about a lot of different things. But even though she's, hopefully she'll be on a show. Well, she was just on hotel, love hotel and stuff. And she's just, it's hilarious. But just meeting her, I think that she would be like top for me right now because I just thought she was awesome. Yeah.

I thought she was awesome. Okay, let's answer a couple of questions for people who wrote in. Thank you guys for writing in. on my Instagram at Brittany. Just that Brittany. Okay, here we go. Okay, starting off hot. Let's do it.

This is from Natalie McClellan. What is a Stacey? You already know what I'm going to ask because I just mix up two words. What is the status of her and Stacey and Katie? I have not spoken to Stasi and, I mean, a text message and I don't even know how long a year. so non-existent you didn't hear from her after kaya or anything no no

someone that I'll always really love and care about. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Of course. Typical children's vitamins are basically candy in disguise, filled with two teaspoons of sugar, unhealthy chemicals, and other gummy junk growing kids should never eat. That's why Haya was created.

Haya is designed for kids two and up and gets sent straight to your door, so parents have one less thing to worry about. I love Haya.

Cruz has been using them for a while, and he is such a picky eater, so I feel so much better knowing that he's getting the nutrients and vitamins that he needs. He actually loves them.

What situation impacted you both personally the most on VaynerPump? Ooh, that's a hard one.

What situation impacted me the most? Oh, God. I'm sure I'll say something and then find some. something else like much later honestly it was probably getting fired because we're getting fired from sir yeah because i always say like in hindsight working at sir was like being in a bad relationship and i don't think i would have ever left yeah if i didn't get broken up with yeah and it was the very best thing for me true i mean like right after it happened in real life rachel brian came over and brought me a bottle of barefoot bubbly shows you how broke we were and ages us

and we celebrated. But really, in hindsight, I'm like, I would have stayed at that fucking restaurant. I always joked that I would be buried beneath the floors or like underneath the alley. Yeah. So I think that was what impacted me the most. It gave me the freedom that I wouldn't have given myself. Goodness. What impacted me the most?

And I thank Guillermo and Natalie for that, even though Lisa's the one who did it. I'd like to think that Guillermo and Natalie had like my best interest at heart when they were a part of it. Yeah. so thank you natalie and i love you gosh for me oh lord i had so many bad moments but i think i didn't like it does not be a bad one

yeah i know but i think like looking back on my relationship and my vanterpump rules days there was a lot of like times that didn't like click with me then that clicked with me after i had a kid you know yeah so like that's kind of you know a big deal

obviously but um gosh i hate to say it but like my wedding and stuff because i was getting married like of course that was like the most impactful thing on my life at the time you know for sure got to have my dream wedding got married by lance bass got to do like a lot of amazing take your ex out of the equation yeah the most beautiful wedding yeah and you have it on 4k like all the time and it did impact my life because i have my beautiful son i have so many amazing things since then and i mean there was just so there was so many honestly just being on vanderpump rules in general impacted my life hugely showing up in that cute little silky romper showing up in my romper that everybody gives me so much hell for that jacks picked out um you looked adorable i think just like

because that changed the everything about my life the trajectory of your life it really did yeah i had no idea my life was going to be like this or anything like that and same and i'm very grateful very very very very grateful there's a lot of ups and downs but like you know i wouldn't have all the stuff I have now and the platform I have and be able to do the things that I do and help the autism community. There's just so many different things that I would not be able to do if I wasn't even just on the show in general. I agree. So I'm very grateful for that. I hate whenever people are like, oh, they're not grateful for Vanderpump rules or they're not grateful for this or that. I don't like Lisa personally does not mean I am not grateful for the opportunity of getting to do

that show. Exactly. And I also put my damn time in there. Like I worked there for seven years, y'all i worked up for four years before there was even a show existed before housewives existed yeah like i really put in my due diligence like yeah i used to stomp around in like cowboy boots jean shorts and a t-shirt before we had those ugly fucking sir dresses yeah oh my gosh okay but truth be told i love those sandrapea dresses because i used to have tiny little boobies back then and those things just hung on me like back in the day i was like oh i'm like a victoria's secret supermodel I think that's why Jacks thought I should wear that little outfit to interviews because it kind of resembled a central page dress. It like really did.

Yeah, it was like a piece of fabric. Yeah, a piece of fabric. So hello. Nice to see you. This is what I'd look like in your dress. And you had tiny little bitties. I did. Tiny little bitties.

Oh, my goodness. Okay, this is from Fig Newton 5. I love people's names. I love good fig Newton. Do you ever watch back shows and realize you were not viewing the situation fully? like reality shows i think like ours like us do we ever watch back shows and realize that we weren't we were not viewing the situation fully vanderpum rules no nope nope nope nope i think i viewed everything exactly how i wanted to see it exactly how was how it felt in my own eyes yeah and honestly

even more so as time went on i was more right than i even thought i was in the moment yeah validation 100%. I think for me, it's like we film what we're filming. So we only know what's happening. And then you watch it. We don't know what he said. She said they're saying over there while they're filming something. So like you see more of it when it's all put together. I like to say like our cameraman and the producers, they know way more what's happening than we do. Our camera guys know it ever in our audio. Yeah. So sometimes they're the heroes. Yeah. So sometimes we love. look back I will look back and be like oh see I had no idea that happened so for people that are like watching they're like oh well she blah blah blah blah blah blah well you're watching a show I was living it so I wasn't able to like clock in and view on a screen what he or she was saying totally over there whenever they were filming something on the same day that's why my answer is no because I was just like living my truth yeah we were just doing what we thought what was we were

doing I realized yeah uh okay this is from wellness with megan what is your favorite scene christin this is for you what is her favorite scene she has ever been in oh geez oh pete so many i know i'm like uh valley vanderpump valley vander pump um i mean my engagement was pretty epic yeah that was great that would have to definitely be one of them the scene i wasn't in by the way but honestly at there were vander pump was just really fucking special and there were so many fun trips that we had

after my season I would say like after season five like one through six seasons like not a huge fan on myself and too too many like gnarly things happened but like I don't know we just had a lot of fun on like different trips for like bachelor at parties New Orleans was so much fun even though it was gnarly that was

New Orleans was probably one of my favorite things Like, when I look back on the boys doing drag and us not being in costume and just seeing how wild they were, like, that was so much fun to look back. But do you remember how bad Tom and Katie were fighting the entire time? Yes, because that was the one time Tom shorts is like a literal complete asshole. Yeah, yeah. Like the worst of the worst. And he looked so ugly on top of it. He wasn't even a pretty girl at that point.

But we did some thing. I say I can't say them. But this last season on the season three of the Valley. yes that was fun one specific thing that we filmed yeah was probably my maybe my favorite that was that one that's probably one of my favorite oh yeah i'm like mouthing it to brittany i know i know exactly what you mean yeah that was amazing so we yeah so i'd say

Oh my God. There's so many. Yeah. I can go first if you want. I'll try not to cry. Why do I feel like I'm going to cry? Whenever I was going through the very beginning of my separation and stuff. And, like, how hard everything was.

Like, Kristen was there for me so much. Why don't I get teary-eyed? My God. Yeah. And I always knew she was a really good friend to me far before this ever happened. Like, you always had my back and we're always so, like, right or die. And just an amazing friend to me. But going through all of that and, like, how you supported me and how even though you might

have known him longer, like, that didn't matter because our bond was so much stronger. And we are real best friends. And it was just, yeah, that going through that whole experience, all my different Airbnbs, all my different, all that stuff. Like that, that just really like meant a lot to me. And I love you. I love you. I mean, really, it's like any of my shitty breakup since we've been friends, because you never faltered. Like, we don't fight. Yeah, we don't.
