Fake Boyfriends & Production Secrets: Former Housewives Producer Patrick McDonald Spills All!

About this episode

Former Real Housewives producer Patrick McDonald is back, and we are going deep into the wildest behind-the-scenes secrets of reality TV. First, we break down the alarming, now-deleted airport video posted by Milania Giudice showing her in a tense confrontation with Teresa, Gia, and local police, unpacking what really went down and the story behind it. We also get into advice for producers on what to do with Taylor Frankie Paul on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Then, Patrick faces my toughest questions about how production actually operates: do Real Housewives franchises in Potomac, Atlanta, and Salt Lake City really hire and pay fake boyfriends? We discuss why RHOSLC has become top-tier television, how producers assist housewives with restaurant storylines, what happens when a cast member gets demoted from diamond holder to "friend of," and how cast trips are secretly orchestrated. Plus, we spill the truth on the "Bethenny Clause" and my personal strategy for featuring a business on camera so Bravo can never edit your product out! -Right now, Nutrafol is offering our listeners $10 off your first month’s subscription and free shipping when you visit https://Nutrafol.com and ente
