Dr. Dhivya Srinivasa Fires Back at Kelly Dodd’s Threat & Claim of Trying to Sabotage Her Brand Deals

Kelly Dodd believes Dr. Dhivya Srinivasa, a double-board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in breast reconstruction surgery, is a “fake” doctor.

Amid the women’s bitter feud, which recently saw the 50-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County alum proclaiming she was in “sue mode,” Kelly spoke out in a series of new videos, sharing if she’d be appearing on E!’s The Golden Life, discussing her TV return, and warning the doctor that she was coming for her money.

“This is [Dr. Michael Niccole]. He’s a real plastic surgeon. Not a fake one. He’s been around for 50 years. He did my t*ts … and they look still, so good. And actually, he had before-and-after pictures,” Kelly declared in one of her clips, as seen in a reshare from the host of the Sarah From Texas Podcast, who pointed out that Dr. Dhivya works with recovering cancer patients and likely respects their privacy.

In another video, also reshared by Sarah, Kelly was seen discussing her potential cameo on The Golden Life, citing her friendship with Jill Zarin, 62, who was recently fired from the show due to her racist rant about Bad Bunny‘s performance at the Super Bowl.

“As a friend with Jill, but that’s not gonna happen, just as a friend. If we’re going to go down there in April, we were gonna — supposed to go down there in April for [Rick Leventhal‘s] work. So I was just gonna do a cameo. I wasn’t gonna be on,” she clarified.

As Sarah noted in her own video, Jill appeared on Kelly and Rick’s live show a week before she was fired. But now, after alluding to a larger role, Kelly seemed to downplay the past conversation.

“Somebody said, ‘Is [Ramona Singer] gonna take you to film?’” Kelly continued. “I’m not renting. I’m not going to Florida in April. I’m staying in my home in Palm Desert cuz that’s the most beautiful time.”

“And [Teresa Giudice] and [Luis Ruelas] are coming,” Rick, 66, noted.

Rick then mentioned Jeff Lewis’ new show, Still Flipping Out, prompting Kelly to confirm her TV return.

“I was on it. We filmed. And then I think we’re gonna do it sometime in February, right? But I’m on it,” she shared. 

In a third video shared by Dr. Dhivya, the doctor responded to Kelly’s suggestion that she’d called her brands in an effort to take “money away” from her.

“This whack job right here is calling my brands and taking money away from me — she’s trying to,” Kelly had alleged. “You’re going to get sued. Thank you very much. I can’t wait to take your money away from you, you troll whack job, snaggletooth weirdo.”

But according to Dr. Dhivya, she did not call Kelly’s brands.

“The rest of the internet simply sent them the videos that you made,” she clarified. “You know what I learned in reaching out to the brands that you pretend to have a partnership with? ‘Kelly is posting a code from quite some time ago that is no longer active, and we are not actively working with her.’ That was just one of the many brands that said the exact same thing. And I was actually disappointed to hear that because I would love to know that you lost a brand deal for being a flagrant racist. I can’t even say that because you just never had it.”

Then, commenting on Kelly telling her, “I’m gonna sue you,” Dr. Dhivya asked, “You’re going to sue me for what, Kelly? For what? For sending them videos that you made?”

Dr. Dhivya went on to poke fun at Kelly mistakenly naming her attorney as Anthony Weiner, 61, a congressman turned sex offender who was accused of sexting with a 15-year-old girl, and mentioned that Kelly had made a habit of threatening legal action.

“You can’t sue me or anyone else for sharing public videos that you made and posted,” she concluded.

Kelly and Dr. Dhivya’s feud began after the doctor reacted to a video Kelly shared in which she seemed to defend the racist comments Jill made about the Super Bowl Halftime show, which included a complaint about there not being enough white people.

Kelly Dodd was featured in a full-time role on The Real Housewives of Orange County from season 11 through season 15.
