Get rid of Gina the baby nurse


Bethenny continues to confuse me and is starting to piss me off. Which is a shame because I really like her. But, seriously, she keeps Jason's parents at arms length and understandably doesn't want them involved in every weekend and holiday, yet she constantly tries to make her own extended family with anyone who's employed by her. There's Max, the attention whore assistant, Julie, the real assistant and godmother to baby Bryn, Nick, the oddball food cart crawler, various gay dudes who plan parties, sort underwear and carry satchels of bobbles because Bethenny can't dress herself. But, the worst one is Gina, the Trindadian baby nurse. Gina hogs the bathroom, sleeps while the baby is awake forcing Bethenny to go get her, interrupts photo shoots with her marital problems and overloads Bethenny's fridge with pigs knuckles and chicken feet..or whatever mess of hoodoo crap she had in there.

But, the worst came this week when Gina told, not asked, Bethenny that she was going to HER Trinidad Babtist church so Bryn could have a blessing. She lied. It was a fucking baptism complete with head dresses, baby passing, baby shaking, loud drums and "dancing while the spirit enters your body." Gina had the nerve to say, it's not a baptism when the priest (or whatever he was) clearly said it was..and they were anointing the baby's head with a bowl of water! Well, Bethenny flipped out and got the kid back and left. I don't blame her one bit.


But, damn! Why does she have to call these weirdos (with the exception of Julie, who's cool) her family?? Jason's parents actually ARE family. If you're going to surround yourself by annoying people who lie to you and take over your kid, they might as well be your in laws instead of these goof balls Bethenny employs. Gina lied to her and it involved her baby and that is not good. She'd have been fired quicker than Bethenny could make a Skinny Girl cocktail if that had been me. Piss on that. That goofy, pushy, lying Trinidadian Babtist is NOT your family, girl!


On a side note, I LOVE seeing scenes with baby Bryn. She is the sweetest little baby since my little girl. What a doll. They seriously need to get a house or bigger apartment. It's annoying to watch all these people in that closet they call home. I don't see how anyone could stand living in that crowd. There's no place to breathe.

Bryn is such a sweet little girl, so like both Bethanny and her husband in facial features, don't you think?

I understand Bethanny's "this is OUR baby, not your parents' baby" attitude because, although I didn't have those feelings and welcomed all the help and attention I could get for mine, I did know women who felt just as she does.

The nanny has got to go. Will Jason and Bethanny be able to fire her? Surely there were more experienced and loving people out there for this pair to hire to care for their most precious baby.

I just don't understand the "We're your family now, Gina, we LOVE you" crap. She's an employee and not a very good one.

I always thought that Julie came across as so fake, like she is really thinking "This Bethenny is a fuckin' bitch, but I will just smile and go along to collect my awesome paycheck."
When Bethenny asked her to be the godmother, out came the fake smile all the while in her head she's saying...man, now these people want me to be the brat's godmother.
Thats what I see anyway, anyone agree with me?

I dunno clap, I think Julie and BF get along pretty well. She really seems close to Bryn and Cookie Cujo. But, yeah, sometimes I see the eye roll. How could anyone help it with BF going on?
