'Real Housewives of New York': Tinsley Mortimer leaves show and moves to Chicago to be with fiance Scott Kluth
Tinsley Mortimer's on and off relationship with boyfriend Scott Kluth has been a bone of contention between her and co-star Dorinda Medley. Over the past few episodes, we saw Dorinda giving Tinsley a hard time, claiming that the former supermodel was not being entirely honest about her relationship. Despite Tinsley trying her best to explain to her fellow housewife that she isn't comfortable sharing everything about her relationship with the world, Dorinda was in no mood to listen to her fellow housewife.
We have witnessed Dorinda being unnecessarily harsh on Tinsley and going after her this whole season. So, when on the latest episode of 'Real Housewives of New York', Tinsley revealed that she wants to spend the rest of her life with Scott, strangely enough, Dorinda chose not to react to it. Tinsley told the ladies that though she did not get an engagement ring from Scott, she is beyond sure that she will be spending the rest of her life with him and making their relationship work. She also hints at moving to Chicago to be closer to her man.
Although Tinsley isn't sure when she will make her big move, she reveals the happy news to Leah McSweeney. Leah was over the moon about Tinsley's big news. Later, when all the women were together at a bar, Leah proposes to raise a toast to Tinsley. She then explains to the puzzled housewives that Tinsley is sure that Scott is the man for her and she plans on spending her life with him. We expected a huge reaction from Dorinda, but instead of congratulating Tinsley or engaging in a conversation with her and asking her about Scott, the women take Dorinda's lead and ignore Tinsley's news altogether. They continue chit-chatting among themselves and don't pay any attention to Tinsley or her big news. Then, out of the blue, Tinsley announces that she is moving to Chicago soon to be with Scott. When Dorinda hears this, she begins making snide remarks about Tinsley and Scott's relationship. Tinsley gets annoyed but chooses to keep quiet.
Later, Ramona Singer and LuAnn meet Tinsley to congratulate her and ask her more details about Scott and her relationship. They also apologize for not showing any interest in her big news when she announced it to them earlier. Tinsley forgives them and tells them all about how Scott was already making space for her closet in his flat in Chicago and setting up her glam room. The women get excited on hearing Scott's plans and realize that the relationship might be way more serious than they had anticipated. Overall, they feel happy for her. Towards the end of the episode, we see Tinsley packing up her stuff and moving to Chicago. The showrunners reveal that Scott did propose to Tinsley and the couple is happily living together in Chicago.
This means that we won't be seeing Tinsley on 'RHONY' anymore. We will definitely miss her and hope that she has a great time in Chicago.
