Ramona Singer's back after taking her daughter to South Africa for a high school graduation gift People reported on April 16. "Now that Ramona's back from vacation, she's the Dalai Lama," joked Sonja.
"I return from vacation, and they're acting like lions," Singer said of the feud between Drescher and Thomson that began over Bookgate. Drescher accused Carole Radziwell, a professional writer, of using a ghostwriter for her book What Remains.
"Suddenly, I was having to defend my 20-year writing career," Radziwill later told Thomson and Kristen Taekman. "She asked me if I hired a ghostwriter ... Who asks that? ... Did she just question my credibility and career? ... It's the worst thing you could say to a writer." The wives, of course, took sides, which resulted in Thompson ordering Drescher's image consultant friend, Amanda Sanders, to "deck" her.
"I want to resolve this. I want to be peacemaker," said Singer.
Thompson showed her resentment by not inviting Drescher to her husband and her 10-year anniversary party. An offended Singer boycotted the party.
"Ramona's a pot stirrer," Thomson said after hearing the news at her own party. She added that it's impossible to avoid "that Singer stinger" for long.
