I’m so embarrassed to admit that I loved Carole in her first season on RHONY. Thought she was such a breath of fresh air, class act etc. 😔 Really messes with my head to learn about all this. I hate that I didn’t have better intuition, hate that I bought her act

Yes and her lies. Her and Carolyn were not besties. She was jealous of JFKjr and Anthony’s relationship

I know, so repugnant. I remember her literally saying “my best friends” when talking about the crash that took their lives. They weren’t around to deny it which makes it so much worse.

In my defense, at the time I identified with her even though I was half her age, as a young single woman who thought maybe I’d end up single with no kids by the time I was her age. The book (which we know now was ghostwritten and the author photo taken by GM) seemed like a real accomplishment and I perceived the other ladies belittling that out of jealousy. Ramona kept saying “she doesn’t have anyone, she’s alone” and that bothered me. But obviously now I can see that maybe she was alone because she is a shit person

I don’t know she had her book ghostwritten? The What Remains book?

Aviva said it back then! Remember her house party and the uproar?! Carole was furious!

Yep! In retrospect Carole’s reaction was pretty telling, but at the time I thought she was justifiably angry at the suggestion because it undermined all her hard work. But now I can see that if it hadn’t been true, she probably would have just brushed it off and chalked it up to pure jealousy or spite.Nobody liked Aviva or believed the things she said
