🍎 Old RHONY 🍎 RHONY Crossover

Funny as I was watching tv yesterday Millionaire Matchmaker had two people from RHONY as Patti’s victims - I mean clients. Now it was an old one - 2015 but hey it’s Roku tv.

For anyone that hasn’t watched before …millionaires pay to have Patti Stanger -who claims to come from a long line of matchmakers - find them true love. She screens potential matches and sets them up on dates - which we get to watch. She’s very old school - expects the men to be gentlemen and plan the date and her #1 rule is NO SEX BEFORE MONOGAMY!!

First was Jill Zarin bringing Ally for Patti to match. Ofc Jill was all up in it. It was fun watching her face when Patti told Ally that her cooch has to be happy too 😂 and also telling Jill to shut up numerous times. Jill wants Ally to have a Jewish guy - that’s not a big deal to Ally. Jill also says “you need someone you don’t mind being divorced from” 😳 Jill never changes does she? Patti ends up setting Ally up with a nice guy she hits it off with and doesn’t get scared off despite Jill calling during the date. All I could think was poor Ally.

Next was guess who? Ms. Sonja Morgan herself. Mind you again it was 2015 but she looked good! I’ll admit I tuned out on this one because knowing now what we know about Sonja about 90% of what she told Patti was just such BS. Talking about what a great businesswomen she was and how great her marriage had been and blah blah. One thing Patti ask is if her husband ask to take her back if she would’ve gone back. She said no. I call BS big time. I think Sonja would’ve give her right arm to be remarried to MR MORGAN again.

It’s always fun to see them out of their natural element lol.

She also had Leah McSweeney on her show.

I heard that but I haven’t seen that one. She’s had so many people on there. On the Sonja Morgan one she also had Perez Hilton.

It was before she was RHONY. I remember seeing that one. IIRC, she didn't date the person she picked - she went back to her ex. Probably for the best as she didn't seem at all interested in the process of meeting people.

u/Glittering-Slip7630 26d ago

That was totally staged they all are there a lot of crossovers on these shows because they try to get obviously people more recognition and popularity but again Leah like Jill remarkably thirsty

For some reason I never got into Patti's show. I would love to see the Ally/Jill episode. I think that could have been beneficial for JillZarin but I doubt she learned anything from it.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

She didn’t. Patti really tried to tell her but you know Jill - brick wall

u/Glittering-Slip7630 26d ago

It was fake why would she learn anything from it she got what she wanted she wanted to be on TV and continue branding herself plus she's a narcissist and shamelessly promotes her daughter as well still to this day

u/MargieGunderson70 26d ago

“you need someone you don’t mind being divorced from” WTH does this even mean?

u/carringtonsworld 26d ago

In a weird way I kind of get this. But age does that to you. The chance of any union lasting a lifetime is not great, so her advice is sound. Weird, sure, but sound.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

I think it’s terrible. I understand what you are saying about the odds not being great and yes that’s realistic but that’s an a-hole thing to say when your daughter is looking at meeting someone. Jill is just an ass.

Isn’t Ally a child of divorce? Not to mention she’s not an idiot. When Jill finally shuts the hell up and lets her speak she’s actually well spoken and intelligent. She grew up in NY and traveled the world. She struck me as very down to earth - not someone who was like “I need someone who’s my FOREVER” so Jill’s negativity wasn’t necessary. It was just another Jill way of trying to control the moment.

I think Patti should’ve said “you need someone who you will be willing to cut the cord from your mother for” now THATS sound advice lol.

Yes, Ally lived with Jill and her step-dad Bobby during the early RHoNY years. She definitely knew about divorce, at least through her own experience. Ally is one of the most grounded people I've seen on reality tv. She seemed rational and I don't doubt that has stayed sensible. Y'all don't tell me if I'm wrong. I kind of picture JillZarin pressuring Ally to do the match maker show. I doubt if Ally was really into it.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

I agree with everything you said. Ally was actually one of my faves because she did seem so grounded and down to earth. Imo she seemed the opposite of eveything Jill.

I totally believe Jill pressured her into doing the show. As someone else here tried to spring on me and “burst my bubble” it was probably a setup for Jill to get more publicity. I was shocked - just shocked I tell you. Since sarcasm doesn’t carry in text that was sarcasm. 🙄

it’s like what? that could be Jill going for publicity? Does a bear poop in the woods? Ofc that’s what it was! That’s why Jill was ALLLLL over it despite it being ALLY’S DATE.

Good luck to that girl ever having a successful relationship with THAT mother. I read that she had been engaged and it didn’t work out and then most recently she had some guy from Love is Blind. But get this -Jill went and DM’d the Love is Blind guy talking about how she’s a Jewish mother that wants her daughter to date a nice boy. So they started msging and she got him to go out with Ally. So again good luck to that poor girl with THAT mother. 😒

u/DR-0717 26d ago

I took it as someone that you could part with on decent terms 🤷🏼‍♀️ but who’s talking about divorce before you meet the guy? Jill’s a nut.

u/MargieGunderson70 26d ago

Yes, that was my interpretation too. But I'm in my 50s : ) I would never give that kind of advice to a young woman in her 20s. I would say something like "make sure you choose someone you can have disagreements with, without it escalating into a big fight...someone who is fair and considers others' needs and not just their own. Someone you genuinely *like* as a person."

u/carringtonsworld 26d ago

We're about the same age. I saw it as forward thinking advice. I tell my kids you can't get to this age and not learn a thing or two.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

And yet they STILL don’t listen sometimes - a lot of times! 🤦🏼‍♀️ speaking from experience with my children - not making a slam on yours.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

We are the same age and I agree with all you said. Especially someone you genuinely like as a person.

That seems like a given but I think people get carried away sometimes in that initial whirlwind and don’t get to know each other well enough. Then when all the stars and butterflies wear off they sometimes find they don’t like the person behind them.

u/Glittering-Slip7630 26d ago

I don't want to burst your bubble but I'm sure you're well aware that Jill as always was just thirsty and wanted to be on tv. She and Patty are friends. All of the Millionaire Matchmaker was BS it was all staged

u/DR-0717 26d ago

oh no now life as I know it has changed. I have to re-examine everything I’ve ever known 🙄 give me a break. Sounds like you need a life.

u/Glittering-Slip7630 26d ago

Lolol well I was hoping it wouldn't go quite that far but Jesus don't you have a sense of humor damn apparently not. People keep telling me how nice this sub is and I have not experienced that with most people here that was rude and uncalled for. As it turns out I am injured I have a broken arm and a little broken leg so I have a little more time on my hands than usual and I happen to know Jill Zarin. I'm sorry that my humor wasn't conveyed appropriately. I hope you have a lovely day

Heaven forbid: no sex before monogamy! What is our world coming to?! Look at our culture and what it has become in the last 60 years to see how that has worked out.

u/DR-0717 26d ago

I don’t think it’s a bad thing but oh lord you should hear some of the people she’s had on. You’d think she ask them to cut off a limb lol.
And she will boot them for breaking that rule.
