Rebecca Minkoff: Don't Call Her Daddy

This episode dives deep into a story that’s far more captivating than anything the RHONY reboot has offered so far. Leave behind Rebecca Minkoff’s lackluster appearance on the show as Rebekah pulls back the curtain on the real intrigue: a journey of ambition, family, and faith, woven through fashion, Scientology, and scandal.We trace Rebecca Minkoff’s meteoric rise from her early days as a designer, where she struck gold by capturing a cultural zeitgeist, to the helm of a company steeped in the teachings of Scientology. And yes, we’ll unpack the story behind her infamous “Morning After Bag”—though after this episode, you might need more than a purse to help you  recover. But the drama won’t stop there—her family connections take this tale to an entirely new level.Enter Rebecca’s father, a prominent Scientologist and doctor, whose career became mired in controversy. His practice was linked to not one but two wrongful deaths—tragic losses that many believe could have been entirely avoided. The victims’ stories serve as a stark reminder of the high stakes involved when ambition and ideology intersect.Here’s what the hosts are watching:Melissa: St. Dennis, PeacockRebekah: All the Housewives!Melissa gave three clues for the next episode:Bill CosbyRyan SeacrestTyra BanksThank you to our guest editor and sound engineer, Toby Brown!Check out Rebekah’s new podcast: Thank you for your interest!
