Welcome back to The Viall Files: Reality Recap!
Natalie is back!!! And today, we’re talking Tyler and Tate’s engagement, Double Lives of Suburban Wives, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives fatigue, D23, and why reality TV is better when it’s fun. Later, Shai from Next Gen NYC stops by to break down life inside Bravo’s newest friend group, from Charlie and Brooks to Bravocon, Ava, Kyle Cooke, and why he rejects the idea that “a friend to all is a friend to none.” Plus, we get into Let’s Marry Harry and the latest Married at First Sight chaos.
“You should be kind to everyone. If that’s two-faced to people, that’s their problem.”
