Content creators Dana Wilkey and Adam Newell are knee deep in drama regarding AlibabaGATE. The host of the “Dishing Drama with Dana Wilkey” podcast and Adam, the ‘podcaster’ featured this season on an incriminating phone call with Whitney, gave insight into what happened behind the scenes.
Dishing with Dana:
According to the $25,000 sunglasses owner, “Whitney Rose pressured Adam before he could get a hold of me to tell him what she wanted to hear on the show. Adam rolled with it, I’m gathering. Nobody else released the Alibabi gossip except for me.” Dana noted the leaker “picked me very intentionally” with the information about where Whitney’s jewelry is sourced from.
Allegedly, this person wanted to “call out Whitney Rose’s business,” according to the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills ‘friend of.’ Dana admitted she didn’t know which cast member it was specifically as they slipped into her DMs using a Finsta account. But, “This cast member did it in a way that I know who it is,” she teased.
“This person was very angry behind the scenes at what Whitney Rose did on the show to them after they were so close. This person has ties to staff members who gossip. And, this cast member is the best researcher of gossip out of the whole cast. This person is very strategic in how and when they deliver information on the show. It usually help with iconic scenes and storylines and is the person to least likely to expect to drop this tea.”

Adam clarified the leaker is NOT Lisa Barlow:
YouTube’s Up and Adam host explicitly stated the phone call shown on RHOSLC was pieced together from different parts of his recorded conversation. Specifically, Adam clarified the part of the convo that implied the leaker owned a liquor company never really happened. Simply put, he cleared Lisa’s name.
According to Adam, Meredith doesn’t think Lisa is the leaker either. He gave a breakdown into the timeline of his televised phone call with Whitney on his breakdown of last week’s RHOSLC episode on his YouTube channel.
*Full disclosure: I’ve been doing weekly recaps with Adam on his YouTube channel. That’s me in the video linked above!*
Bravo TV fans reacted, and overwhelmingly believe Heather is the culprit:
- It’s HEATHER GAY who did it!!!!!!!!
- And they stay mad at Monica yet heather they are doing the same thing 😂
- It’s Ms. lost her mind about a blog last year Heather she’s a snake Gay.Â
- Heather. PERIOD. 🎯 If we’re lucky it’ll come out on the show 😆
- It was totally Heather. It’s still so funny to me that Whitney is so clueless and sure of herself. Waiting for her to fall flat at reunion
- Sounds like Meredith 😂
My (unsolicited) theory, after hearing Dana and Adam’s intel:
While the masses believe Heather to be the source of the Prism jewelry Alibaba leak, I’m not as confident. Considering the show made it look like Lisa was the leaker in the edited phone conversation between Adam and Whitney, I’m taking Lisa’s name off my list of suspects.
Dana teased the leaker is the person you’d “least likely to expect to drop this tea.” Plus, she said it’s someone who wanted to “call out Whitney Rose’s business.”
We all saw how upset Meredith Marks was when she found out that Whitney Rose was selling bath bombs? While baths are Meredith’s ‘thing’ during her off time, she’s had a jewelry brand since 2009. I don’t think Heather would be as eager to expose Whitney’s jewelry as Mere.
Keep in mind, the leaker used a Finsta account which is WILD to me considering the drama around Reality Von Tease last season. If the leaker is Meredith, Heather, or Lisa, it would speak volumes of their character if they orchestrate a Finsta scandal after their reaction to Monica Garcia running a Finsta last season. (THAT’S MY OPINION!)
Last week, we were teased the leaker was ‘the last person’ one would expect, so I thought perhaps Mary Cosby. With this new information, I’m starting to think it’s Meredith as she’s a less obvious culprit over Heather.
