Legal Team, we’ve got a major treat today: former Bravo producer and now CEO of his own production company Carlos King is in the courtroom! In this special episode, we’re stepping outside our usual case files to hear from the legend himself about the latest Bravo-verse lawsuits and what really goes on behind the scenes. Carlos breaks down why Housewives so often end up in legal or financial trouble, how producer guidance actually works, why social media has warped the genre, and his unfiltered thoughts on everything from Wendy Osefo’s current situation to the Tardy for the Party dispute. Plus, he lets us in on his casting process and what truly makes a great Housewife.

 

What’s on the Docket? 

  • What sealing a criminal conviction actually means 
  • Criminal diversion programs explained 
  • Carlos’ take on the Wendy & Eddie situation 
  • Why Housewives keep getting tangled in scandals 
  • How producers encourage storylines without crossing lines 
  • The real impact of social media on Housewives behavior 
  • How casting used to work vs. how it works now 


Keep up with Carlos!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
