According to the New York Daily News, all of the Real Housewives castmembers discuss the scandal during the season five premiere. Tamra Barney and Vicki Gunvalson meet for lunch to talk smack about Rossi, with Barney saying, "There's a picture of her with a vibrator laying on a bed with a cord, I'm like, 'Holy Mother of Gynecology! Who has a vibrator with a cord?' "

The photos were first posted on the website Dirty.com, but much of their popularity has come from said discussion on the show. As for Rossi, she's understandably embarrassed. She says int he premiere that the pictures became public without her knowledge, and they were taken when she was in a "dark place" mourning her husband's death.
