Jax vs. Brittany, the feud that won't quit. Reality Blurb reports that Jax leaked an email to Brittany insisting she's a "neglectful" parent who's "full of s–t" and lying about their son. Brittany and Zack Wickham have responded, even as Jax was spotted out and about with Lori Krebs — which is exactly what triggered Lala Kent, who slammed Jax as a "monster" after seeing alleged disturbing videos of his treatment of Brittany, questioning how Lori could date him after seeing the footage. This divorce battle is giving us whiplash, and not in a fun way.

RHOA's reunion is doing NUMBERS. Shamea Morton revealed at the reunion that K. Michelle was the costar who allegedly tried to fight her off camera. Meanwhile, Kelli Potter fired back at Porsha — after Porsha dubbed her the "town clown," Kelli slammed her as the "town wh\*re," and Angela threw her own shade at Kelli on top of it. Atlanta is not letting us breathe.

Dorit's small but mighty legal win. PK's emergency motion to sell their $6 million mansion was denied amid the divorce. The Encino estate stays put — for now.

Real Housewives

• RHOBH casting watch: Season 16 filming has begun, and rumors are swirling about whether Kathy Hilton is leaving. A Beverly Hills season without Kathy's hunky-dory chaos? Devastating, potentially.
• Teresa's RHUGT tea: She revealed she nearly "flipped a table" on Vicki over tax shade, called out Heather's "inappropriate" treatment of Lisa, and named her closest costar. Table-flip instincts: undefeated.
• Shannon vs. Tamra, continued: Shannon addressed her RHUGT finale ban after their fight, hinting Tamra "instigated" other things that night — and clapped back at an ex-producer's claim she mistreats crew.
• Vicki's receipts tour: She responded to Terry Dubrow's $100K bet over her claim he inherited money, admitted she'd still be married to Donn if not for RHOC, and teased the RHUGT finale.
• Reddit roundup: Fans are debating whether Lisa Barlow is an all-time great housewife, demanding more Dorinda ("MUCHO MARTINIS"), and still litigating whether Vicki knew about Brooks. Plus one RHOA viewer joking the new women look like "extras in a Tim Burton movie" — messy, but we laughed. And a genuinely sweet reunion moment toward Porsha even won over the skeptics. Balance!

Below Deck

• Max-imum chaos, indeed: Episode 11 brought deckhand Max Salvador back to save the boat from jellyfish attacks — but the truly terrifying threat was the impossibly demanding guests. Reality Blurred's recap is required reading.
• A masterclass in calling out bigotry: Reality Blurred revisited Below Deck Med season 3 — Travis's legendary "you absolute oxygen thief" response to Mila's homophobia — as a lesson Big Brother 28's Drew could've used when responding to Kamu's sexism. A crossover episode we didn't know we needed.
