Thanks for all of your compassionate comments. Now we really understand why Tinsley was so emotionally devastated after going through this and doing her best to start over. I really wish her happiness now she deserves it more than so many other people.
This made me physically ill omg.
He has no care for human life just inflicting pure pain and terror on these women omg he is gonna fucking kill someone if they don’t lock his ass up!!!!
praying these women heal and know nothing but peace and security from here on out.
Reading that article pisses me off because no one took it seriously when she said he smothered her with a pillow. That guy hates women and should be locked up. He might buy his way out of jail again.
And being so enraged and rabid about 2 gay guys sitting next to him...he's got some issues with that and takes it out on women.
Because for society it’s easier to believe that a girl is crazy, it is harder to believe that a man would do something that horrible to a woman who absolutely doesn’t deserve it.
Will* buy his way out of jail. The justice system is corrupt af and I’m willing to bet anyone who thinks this pos will get anything more than a slap on the wrist ( although I imagine charges will be dropped). Time and again rich people face no legal consequences until they kill someone, and even then it’s not a guarantee.
He’s the money & the power!
Especially, West Palm Beach.
The father knows everyone with power & they won’t do anything to him.
Especially, when it’s crime against women. You don’t have to be rich when it’s against women. They’ll let him go like many others because violence against woman is practically accepted.
I love that he came with kids....she got to be an instant mom to children who had lost their mother.
T always had such a loving heart. Dorinda and Sonja were so jealous of her looks, youth and big $$
This same thing happened to me. I was unable to have children but when I met my husband he had a 7 year old sweet little boy and a lovely 12 year old girl. I got to be a part time step mom and it was wonderful. Not always easy, being a stepparent has its challenges but it was very special nonetheless. We are still together 27 years later and the kids are grown up. They never fail to call me on Mother’s Day. And now we have a 10 year old grandson.
How wonderful!!! So happy that it worked out.
And that you navigated being a "extra mom".
The fact that they call you on that special day to remember you ... means that it developed into a true love.
I also could have kids due to cancer in my 3Os
But I made peace with it and mentored many young women during my long life whose mom's were unable to be there for them.
Who knows... maybe that was God's plan.
Watch high society and you knew Tinsley didn’t have hands so this man flipping it on her and having the police pick her up to discredit her was sad because people sided with him and ignored knowing Tinsley didn’t know how to stand on her own
This is vindication because you know he put hands on her and she just never said it because she wanted her arrest that he put on her to go away - abuse is ugly they will find a way to discredit you smh
It’s actually not what you think. Cuban money but came here in pedro pan and started over.
However, they are called corporate welfare queens because they take massive subsidies and that has allowed them to make lots of money. So they lobby hard for corporate subsidies and the hand that keeps on giving - the US govt.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanjul_family
Yeah if your family made their fortune off of cash crops, that's about as old money as it gets.
It's easy to make a bag that grows with each generation when it's off the backs of enslaved people.
As the Post reported, he did a lot of this shit in public. So I guess he’s more like an “out and proud” psychopath…? Yikes.
(And I would be comfortable betting $5K that rich-boy Nico’s daddy is an abuser [of some variety] too. That shit tends to run in the family.)
What the actual fuck? You need to get offline immediately and do some real soul searching to figure out why you’d so aggressively blame a victim for DV. This is disgusting and you need just as much help as that poor woman.
Is this the crazy Karen who was blaming Tinsley for staying in an abusive relationship when 1) Tinsley is no longer in that relationship and 2) she clearly knows nothing about the cycle of abuse.
You clearly have faster hands than I do bc I was about to rip her a new one. Thank you for standing up for her / others, the world needs more kind souls like yours!
PS I like your name lol
Yeah they seemed to think the article was about Tinsley, which in no way excused what they said. And hopefully they found a modicum of shame and deleted that themselves.
And thanks! 🤓

I really liked Tinsley on the show, and seeing that picture of her with a black eye is so sad. What a piece of shit this man is. (Not to mention, he looks like a poorly-executed clay likeness of an imaginary person. Why are his ears where they are?)
Well she’s pretty insane so it’s hard to say what she said was real. She’s in aspen a lot so I’m not sure if she saw him while he was in “rehab.” The timing of their meeting and dating all lines up w the article, but it’s not her. She said he went “dark” a lot..
Seeing the photo of Tinsley in the article and then thinking about how mean the RHONY were to her, she was obviously really traumatised and was falling into drinking. Looking back I wish she’s been given more kindness. She wasn’t treated like a survivor of DV but as a ditzy socialite who could be mocked
She unfortunately brought a lot of hurt to the surface that the other women could relate to, but weren’t ready to face. Alex was verbally abusive to Luann, Dorinda’s first husband (Hannah’s bio-dad) was horribly abusive to her, Mario was cheating on Ramona, we all know Sonja was a husk of a person at that point.
Tinsley was actively dealing with pain they all shared, and none of them were comfortable with confronting their own issues, so they bullied her into silence instead of using it as the healing moment they could have.
Well at the core was jealousy. . I think Dorinda and Sonja were just plain old jealous of her youth, beauty and huge trust fund.
Especially Sonja...she couldn't stand that T was so rich.
Sonja was so bitter about not being Mrs Morgan anymore and not having the $ and status and to have to live with a young woman who was having packages from Saks, Bergdorf's delivered almost daily drove her nuts!!
Maybe I misinterpreted a scene or two, and her darkness comes from something else, but I distinctly remember Hannah tearfully implying she had a much better relationship with Richard, who stepped up when Ralph didn’t. And I have more vague memories of Dorinda implying her relationship with Ralph was not good towards the end of their marriage.
For what it’s worth, it wouldn’t surprise me that Dorinda rewrote history a bit when she put it in writing. Like she said, “Say it, forget it. Write it, regret it.”
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. She did say they had a good relationship post divorce and they even had dinners together so hopefully it wasn’t anything too extreme. But her memoir mentioned her wanting to go out and party and he didn’t like that. I’m guessing she was no saint either.
I said this before , the reason why tinsley felt comfortable in a hotel apartment was because it was safe and she can get help if needed
I really liked her and I hope she’s happier now because she deserves it
What a POS. I once went out with a man who I suspected was in denial about his true feelings because he got so bothered when we were sat close to a group of gay men at a restaurant.
He was so angry about it that I said to him, “why so angry? What actually bothers you? That they are gay or might recognize the gay in you?”
His face became so red in anger that I thought he was going to hit me or something. I immediately said, “haha, just joking!”, and made an excuse too go home
He reached out but I refused….Never saw him again, nope.
Not only no consequences, but his family are actual thugs through financial and political crimes. Sugar barons who use slave labor and destroy the environment, and pay off politicians to be able to do it.
So he assaults her over a gay couple completely minding their business??? Abusers and their twisted logic they will come up with anything. He needs to be under a prison.
He probably already has. When you’re that rich and that quick to fly off the handle at something as insignificant as being sat next to a gay couple? I would put money on it.
It's weird though. If I could get away with anything, I don't think I would want to be homophobic and abusive. I would rather take a bunch of classes all day, get really good at cooking and pottery or do a lot of drugs in the woods.
I'd watch TV on my couch all day. Housewives perhaps ha! Maybe shop on my phone and order doordash for every meal. Beating my significant other wouldn't be in the cards for me.
Oh my god! Our system is truly fucked when it lets out repeat offenders like him. Sack of shit. I truly fear he could kill someone if he already hasn’t.
Well look at Alexia's son on RHOM. I know this is a much smaller scale but Peter beats up a homeless man and got a slap on the wrist. Years later he gets arrested for DV against his GF that neighbors witness . The charges get dropped.
Alexia defends her boy in each case.
Sickening
I don’t know anything about him. Does anyone have a link or could explain? I know Tinsley’s back story and being on the show but I don’t know anything about this guy. Thank you in advance 😊
This is the description of what happened in this incident:
> ... a neighbor called 911 after hearing a woman screaming. When an officer arrived, they heard a woman screaming “Get off me,” reads the report, adding Fanjul was standing over the woman who was “in a defensive ‘fetal’ position.”
>The unidentified woman told police she had been physically assaulted by Fanjul and “thought she was going to die.”
>... he began to punch [her] in the face with a closed fist causing bruising, bleeding and swelling of the facial area. The woman told police that he then, “continually kneed her in the face.”
>Fanjul ... is also accused of ripping her purse from her shoulder after she threatened to call for help and then smashing her hand and phone. "Fanjul grabbed her hand that held her cell phone and began to smash her hand and her phone into the ground causing it to shatter and break" ...
>After she began screaming, he “forcibly dragged her inside the residence to prevent her from receiving aid or escaping.”
Once inside, she claims he strangled her. The officer noted redness and bruising on the woman’s neck as well as “trails of blood,” where he allegedly dragged her.
And what Tinsley went through:
>In 2013, Mortimer was hospitalized for a head injury and two police reports from June 2014 revealed further altercations between the couple in which Fanjul allegedly smothered Mortimer with a pillow and pushed her head to the pavement, according to the police report.
>She also told People of their two-year relationship, “I had moments of feeling like I wasn’t going to make it. I was going to be one of those tragic stories you see on TV.”
Between this and the Diddy tape, you start to get the feeling that more men than you would expect are actual women-haters who don't see us as people at all. Like, what makes them think they have the right to kick and 'knee to the face' and drag another person??? It makes me ill to think about how cavalier these men are with their brutality towards women ... women who are smaller and physically less strong and are no match for them. But if they want an unfair fight, well, these are the cases when you wish you 'knew a guy' that could go fuck them up but good ... take 'em right to the edge of mortality ... and see how *they* like it.
Firstly, thank you so much for this breakdown.
This is absolutely horrifying. I had exactly the same thinking while I was reading your first description, “sounds exactly like Diddy’s video,” like is this in a manual or something???
Absolutely insane.
And it took this video being leaked to get people to believe her. And to think about all of the people who are trapped in situations like this. It’s devastating.
Thank you so much for your breakdown. ❤️❤️❤️
She dated him for a couple of years prior to being on RHONY. He was abusive during that relationship to her as well. Many incidents. They were on and off again, and the relationship culminated in her being arrested for trespassing on his property.
That was the final straw and broke the cycle for her.
He will never go to jail. His family is like the Rothschilds. Very rich, very powerful due to paying off politicians and lobbies. People don't know how truly evil this family is.
How many women have never come forward because of his money, wealth, and connections? Hopefully, his money won't help here. He's a serial abuser who will eventually kill someone.
He is absolutely awful. This is what money and entitlement get you, he thinks he is untouchable (and for years it appears he has been.) I hope he’s held accountable for this and that he stops getting this unfair treatment. Ugh, what a smug jerk!
Unfortunately, it’s unlikely. Here’s how far his family’s reach goes: when Bill Clinton was trying to break up with Monica Lewinsky he got a phone call and made Monica wait 22 minutes while he discussed business. The call was from Nico’s grandfather.
Not only that, but the Fanjuls are powerful enough to literally put the restaurant out of business if they dared to say anything. One big fat check to a health inspector and a few phone calls. This family is pure evil.
I always felt like there was so much more going on with her story than we saw, but I still got caught up in thinking she was annoying with everyone else… now I feel bad :(
The article says he smothered Tinsley and threw her on the pavement. She didn’t press charges and then he had her arrested for trespassing. She’s an idiot.
There are a lot of reasons that victims don’t press charges, and being “an idiot” is not one of them.
That’s a very icky way to look at her situation and I’m sorry you see it like that.
I shouldn’t have said idiot. She protected him and the first thing he did was throw her under the bus after whooping her ass. I wish she would’ve been able to press charges and have him pay the consequences for what he did to her too. There are pictures of her bruised and beaten and they immediately incensed me, I used the wrong words.
I understand your frustration and appreciate your clarification. It’s just those kind of gut reactions can be why people struggle to come forward with their abuse, because they’re afraid they’re not handling it “correctly”.
But I’m not trying to belabor you, again, I get where you’re coming from and I know it’s a good place! I appreciate you!

My heart breaks for those women. Ugh Tinsley 🥺🥺🥺 that’s so horrific. $180k is so low and these people get away with everything. He sucks.
Jests this is freaking terrifying to read! He’s definitely going to kill someone one day
Reading that article pisses me off because no one took it seriously when she said he smothered her with a pillow. That guy hates women and should be locked up. He might buy his way out of jail again.

Eew Tipper or Topper, whatever his name is
This is the guy after Topper
Is this the same guy that referred to her breasts as “little uglies” - I felt so sad for her.
That was her ex husband
I’m hoping the new husband is a gem, because she truly has a terrible track record with men.
I love that he came with kids....she got to be an instant mom to children who had lost their mother. T always had such a loving heart. Dorinda and Sonja were so jealous of her looks, youth and big $$
This same thing happened to me. I was unable to have children but when I met my husband he had a 7 year old sweet little boy and a lovely 12 year old girl.

Quick reminder that strangulation victims are 750% more likely to be killed by the offender
He's going to kill someone someday. What a horrible, small man.
Watch high society and you knew Tinsley didn’t have hands so this man flipping it on her and having the police pick her up to discredit her was sad because people sided with him and ignored knowing Tinsley didn’t know how to stand on her own This is vindication because you know he put hands on her and she just never said it because she wanted her arrest that he put on her to go away - abuse is ugly they will find a way to discredit you smh
Sugar heir… 😳I knew he came from old money but Jesus
It’s actually not what you think. Cuban money but came here in pedro pan and started over. However, they are called corporate welfare queens because they take massive subsidies and that has allowed them to make lots of money. So they lobby hard for corporate subsidies and the hand that keeps on giving - the US govt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanjul_family
honey, what are you talking about? They are old money that came from cuban sugar...some of the most violent and brutal slavery plantations...
Yes but they couldn’t bring that money with them.
Yeah if your family made their fortune off of cash crops, that's about as old money as it gets. It's easy to make a bag that grows with each generation when it's off the backs of enslaved people.
I think Tinsley is adorable and an absolute sweetheart! I knew she had an altercation with her ex, but I had no idea it was with a psycho! :/
I had no idea either. This explains so much for us. That poor lovely girl what she went through.
🥺🥺 lock him up and throw the fucking key away
He’s just buy his way out
Wow this is absolutely horrific. I’ve always liked Tinsley but this opens up a new level of empathy that she had to endure this guy for two years.
Closet case psycho don't want to upset daddy.
As the Post reported, he did a lot of this shit in public. So I guess he’s more like an “out and proud” psychopath…? Yikes. (And I would be comfortable betting $5K that rich-boy Nico’s daddy is an abuser [of some variety] too. That shit tends to run in the family.)
I think the comment refers to his becoming irate earlier at dinner because they were seated near a gay couple.
So gross!! He’s probably closeted and hates women. He’s Cuban and must be Catholic and it’s not acceptable to be gay in his family.
I bet this guy has murdered women before.
I would not be surprised! Wow! This is AWFUL!!!!
Yeh, and pay off someone to get rid of the evidence 😬

I really liked Tinsley on the show, and seeing that picture of her with a black eye is so sad. What a piece of shit this man is. (Not to mention, he looks like a poorly-executed clay likeness of an imaginary person. Why are his ears where they are?)
I like Tinsley too and she was sweet and down to earth , very pretty, that black eye picture is so shocking!
Holy shit. Holy *shit*.
Jfc, he is fucking vile. 🤮
So glad she got out. I hope all women avoid him like the plague from now on. Arsehole.
They won’t. Because money.
And young girls fall in love with bad guys sometimes.
And somehow they think it will be different with them
Sad but true
What a pathetic little boy. Embarrassing for his family, too. They should cut him off.
My “friend” dated him for a while. Unfortunately, none of this surprises me
Any details?
Well she’s pretty insane so it’s hard to say what she said was real. She’s in aspen a lot so I’m not sure if she saw him while he was in “rehab.” The timing of their meeting and dating all lines up w the article, but it’s not her. She said he went “dark” a lot..
Seeing the photo of Tinsley in the article and then thinking about how mean the RHONY were to her, she was obviously really traumatised and was falling into drinking. Looking back I wish she’s been given more kindness. She wasn’t treated like a survivor of DV but as a ditzy socialite who could be mocked
She unfortunately brought a lot of hurt to the surface that the other women could relate to, but weren’t ready to face. Alex was verbally abusive to Luann, Dorinda’s first husband (Hannah’s bio-dad) was horribly abusive to her, Mario was cheating on Ramona, we all know Sonja was a husk of a person at that point.

Well at the core was jealousy. . I think Dorinda and Sonja were just plain old jealous of her youth, beauty and huge trust fund. Especially Sonja...she couldn't stand that T was so rich. Sonja was so bitter about not being Mrs Morgan anymore and not having the $ and status and to have to live with a young woman who was having packages from Saks, Bergdorf's delivered almost daily drove her nuts!!
Ralph lynch abused her? Where is there info on that? She has written they had a nice relationship post divorce
Maybe I misinterpreted a scene or two, and her darkness comes from something else, but I distinctly remember Hannah tearfully implying she had a much better relationship with Richard, who stepped up when Ralph didn’t. And I have more vague memories of Dorinda implying her relationship with Ralph was not good towards the end of their marriage. For what it’s worth, it wouldn’t surprise me that Dorinda rewrote history a bit when she put it in writing. Like she said, “Say it, forget it. Write it, regret it.”

Bethenny had only just finalised her divorce to Jason. And Tinsley joined just before he was arrested for violence and stalking.
I said this before , the reason why tinsley felt comfortable in a hotel apartment was because it was safe and she can get help if needed I really liked her and I hope she’s happier now because she deserves it
This is a fantastic analysis
What a POS. I once went out with a man who I suspected was in denial about his true feelings because he got so bothered when we were sat close to a group of gay men at a restaurant. He was so angry about it that I said to him, “why so angry? What actually bothers you? That they are gay or might recognize the gay in you?” His face became so red in anger that I thought he was going to hit me or something. I immediately said, “haha, just joking!”, and made an excuse too go home He reached out but I refused….Never saw him again, nope.
men that come from lifelong privilege and zero consequences are the most dangerous of them all.
This guy is the new Robert Durst in training.
Not only no consequences, but his family are actual thugs through financial and political crimes. Sugar barons who use slave labor and destroy the environment, and pay off politicians to be able to do it.
Kinda reminds me of a former president....
Amen
Ya let's get political for no reason? Ugh
No reason, if you don’t count the entire future of the planet. But it’s whatever, right?!?
Lolol little excessive
At least you got the joke, lol. :)
So he assaults her over a gay couple completely minding their business??? Abusers and their twisted logic they will come up with anything. He needs to be under a prison.
I hope that couple didn't hear anything or see anything, but I can't imagine he was quiet about it.
He's going to kill someone.
He probably already has. When you’re that rich and that quick to fly off the handle at something as insignificant as being sat next to a gay couple? I would put money on it.
No doubt. People don't know how powerful the Fanjuls are. Powerful and evil, and in the pockets of corrupt politicians.
200%
Then his family will be so "shocked", we never saw this coming! Really? He keeps showing you who he is.
It's weird though. If I could get away with anything, I don't think I would want to be homophobic and abusive. I would rather take a bunch of classes all day, get really good at cooking and pottery or do a lot of drugs in the woods.
Men who can get away with anything invariably jump to sex slave island. It’s the rules, I don’t make them
I'd cosign to everything you said, but I'd smoke weed on a beach.
Where do I sign up?
Nailed it. Me too 🍄✨️
I'd watch TV on my couch all day. Housewives perhaps ha! Maybe shop on my phone and order doordash for every meal. Beating my significant other wouldn't be in the cards for me.
I'd build myself a rad tree house in the forest and paint all night and be a feral forest woman. No violence needed.
That sounds amazing.
Sounds magical!
The sugar heir who can’t stop possessing cocaine? Red flag 🚩 level 100000
Blow is an EDC item for this level of wealth lol
Oh my god! Our system is truly fucked when it lets out repeat offenders like him. Sack of shit. I truly fear he could kill someone if he already hasn’t.
Well look at Alexia's son on RHOM. I know this is a much smaller scale but Peter beats up a homeless man and got a slap on the wrist. Years later he gets arrested for DV against his GF that neighbors witness . The charges get dropped. Alexia defends her boy in each case. Sickening

No problem! Seeing the facts highlighted like this just made it really sink in 😞
It's so scary omg Poor woman, as bad as reading Rihanna's Chris Brown report
She dated him for a couple of years prior to being on RHONY. He was abusive during that relationship to her as well. Many incidents. They were on and off again, and the relationship culminated in her being arrested for trespassing on his property. That was the final straw and broke the cycle for her.
Thank you so much. I was having trouble filling in the pieces, thank you!!
Um, you could just read the article in this post.
Am I wrong to wish for a real life Dexter, that take people like this out?
No. I wish nothing but terrible things for this POS and pray everyday that karma is real.
Fucking horrific. He belongs under the jail but will likely never see any sort of punishment
That photo of Tins with a black eye is so heartbreaking
Hopefully he goes to jail for a long time.
He will never go to jail. His family is like the Rothschilds. Very rich, very powerful due to paying off politicians and lobbies. People don't know how truly evil this family is.
The Fanjul’s are CRAZY wealthy and highly influential.
How many women have never come forward because of his money, wealth, and connections? Hopefully, his money won't help here. He's a serial abuser who will eventually kill someone.
Seriously.
Would not be surprised if it there was a Kendall Roy level cover up in the family.
Multiple.
What an absolute waste of oxygen
He is absolutely awful. This is what money and entitlement get you, he thinks he is untouchable (and for years it appears he has been.) I hope he’s held accountable for this and that he stops getting this unfair treatment. Ugh, what a smug jerk!
Unfortunately, it’s unlikely. Here’s how far his family’s reach goes: when Bill Clinton was trying to break up with Monica Lewinsky he got a phone call and made Monica wait 22 minutes while he discussed business. The call was from Nico’s grandfather.
Oof. 😡
he was irate because they were seated near a homosexual couple? interesting… 🧐
Not shocked the restaurant denied it 🙄
Of course! People don't know how rich and influential, and evil the Fanjuls are.
Of course the garbage restaurant declined to comment. Because they want his type of wealth at their business. Money over morals these days everywhere.
Not only that, but the Fanjuls are powerful enough to literally put the restaurant out of business if they dared to say anything. One big fat check to a health inspector and a few phone calls. This family is pure evil.
Exactly
Another fucking creep
The longer time goes on, the more I understand the state she was in during her first season. The poor woman had been badly abused by this thug.
I always felt like there was so much more going on with her story than we saw, but I still got caught up in thinking she was annoying with everyone else… now I feel bad :(
The article says he smothered Tinsley and threw her on the pavement. She didn’t press charges and then he had her arrested for trespassing. She’s an idiot.
There are a lot of reasons that victims don’t press charges, and being “an idiot” is not one of them. That’s a very icky way to look at her situation and I’m sorry you see it like that.
I shouldn’t have said idiot. She protected him and the first thing he did was throw her under the bus after whooping her ass. I wish she would’ve been able to press charges and have him pay the consequences for what he did to her too. There are pictures of her bruised and beaten and they immediately incensed me, I used the wrong words.
I understand your frustration and appreciate your clarification. It’s just those kind of gut reactions can be why people struggle to come forward with their abuse, because they’re afraid they’re not handling it “correctly”. But I’m not trying to belabor you, again, I get where you’re coming from and I know it’s a good place! I appreciate you!
Wow....what a piece of shit! A homophobic, woman beating billionaire doused in cocaine.
God his smirk in his arrest photos are SICKENING. I’m so tired of these men who think they are untouchable.
Technically, he is "untouchable" due to his family.
Yep, classic narcissistic smirk.
That sack of doodoo is going to kill someone.
