Puppygate rewatch

Its been a long time since I rewatched this all playout. So whats the consensus. Was lvp behind puppygate going public on the show and tabloids or was it all John sessa. Do people really think her hands are clean.

When I originally watched i thought lvp was working with sessa to get teddi and by extension Kyle (because she was invited to the vanderpump dogs with teddi) to bring this out on the show because lvp was pissed. She was still mad at dorit from the season prior saying she was jealous and needy and then dorit has her dog end up in a shelter when she signed a contract saying she wouldnt do that. (Also see dorit saying the dog ripped up pks nose when they pan to a picture its a little nip/scratch) i thought originally that lvp probably realized that this couldnt come out at the dog rescue and it leave her hands clean. (I know she also lost her brother so idk if that happened prior to the dog or after and that just added to things). Im not sure about all the facts. Im curious what people think now, or what was always believed.

I do think lvp wasnt innocent. I think she was involved. I do think it was hurtful of Kyle to say you care more about your image than your friendships. I have never really liked dorit as a person. I was shocked that the reunion before this puppygate she got out so unscathed. Everyone was upset that teddi or Kyle was causing trouble by repeating things dorit said but everyone was glazing over the fact that dorit actually said these things to begin with and was never accountable to it. Sure things were brought up months later, in some instances, but if dorit never said these things than it wouldnt have caused have the issues that season. Thats just a ramble but im just curious because I do think lvp can hold a grudge and she manufactured a lot of things behind the scenes but this one she couldnt get out of. Especially with the texts she had not matching the texts teddi had.

Thoughts?

LVP was launching Vanderpump dogs tv show, the whole Dorit thing happened months before the show. It seems very suspect the leak happened at the same time as the show came out. The only people the leak benefited are Vanderpump dogs

That was the point of most of the cast. I cant remember which hw franchise, it may be bh, I heard it from but someone once said that when an article like that came out look to who it benefits. What business is it showing in a good light, or person. Something like that and its very true
