I am feeling a bit excited about this episode, the last episode for Phaedra Parks. Tonight on Instagram, Kenya Moore asked the question, “If two people rob a bank, is it fair if only one goes to jail?” in reference to Porsha Williams ONCE AGAIN getting away with her crap. I really wish I knew who she was blowing at Bravo. Freak and Fraud put up a quick “Tune in tonight” with no commentary on the episode. Cynthia said she’s never seen anything like what happens tonight.
Porsha drops the bomb that Phaedra was the one who told her about all the rape, drug, Marvin stuff. Phaedra says she was not spreading any gossip. She says she asked Kandi and she said it was not true and she let it go. She is totally rewriting history her and that must be how she explained it when her mouth was full of Bravo dick. Porsha says that Phaedra told her that Kandi had said to Phaedra that she wanted to drug and rape Porsha. If you didn’t follow that, the bottom line is that Kandi was the one that told Phaedra all of those things. That is some ridiculous attempt at a cover up right there. Is that the fastest Phaedra can think on her feet?
Porsha on the other hand is not as dumb as she looks. She goes straight into full on hysterics and says that she had no idea that Phaedra was lying about Kandi. She has a dramatic exit from the stage and then comes back.
Todd and Kenya are egging on a fight. Todd is telling Porsha to drag her. Kenya and Todd are whispering to each other. Even Cynthia has woken up to let Andy know that this sort of thing goes way too far.
Porsha loses her mind on Phaedra because Phaedra keeps saying she told Porsha what she heard. Porsha is coming HARD at Phaedra threatening to pull out their texts and telling Phaedra “we are going to tell the TRUTH because I am NOT a liar.”
Andy tries to get Phaedra to admit she lied, and explain herself. Oh Andy, Phaedra lies even when the truth would serve her better.
Kandi goes on a long tirade and shares that on her social media people were hashtagging her with #BillCosby. She works hard on her brand she for Phaedra, as an attorney, to start such damning lies is simply unbelievable. It ends with “Y’all accused me of being a fucking rapist!” Kandi makes her dramatic exit with Shamea right in her wake. Porsha is now WAILING with tears. Sheree looks genuinely frightened. Phaedra consoles Porsha while saying, “Now I’m the Doggone villain!” Um, you think?
Shamea tries to talk to Porsha backstage, but she just wants her sister. She tells her everything that happened. Porsha gets that she was used by Phaedra. Andy approaches Porsha ever so gently. Note that he is not with Kandi, but with Porsha and her sister. Andy basically tells Porsha to apologize.
Backstage the other girls are all talking together, except for Phaedra who is having her makeup touched up. Andy drops in on Kandi and we get the scene where he doesn’t realize he was supposed to be shocked. So he says he’s shocked. He doesn’t seem nearly as compassionate to the victim as he was to Porsha. Which is par for this motherfucking course.
Kenya is on the phone with Brandon telling him that she is so sick of Freak and Fraud getting away with all their lies and bad behavior.
Phaedra goes to Porsha who is sitting alone backstage and apologizes to her for “repeating it.” Again with the lies. Porsha is not having it. She tells Phaedra that she is finally on to her game of using her as a pawn in her battle with Kandi. She looks Phaedra dead in the face and says, ” You need to understand how fucked up this is.”
When everyone reconvenes on the couches, Andy tells Phaedra. “I’m surprised that as an attorney you would say something like this. Did you think about it? ” Phaedra says, “Of course I thought about Andy, that is way I wound Porsha up and let her do all the libel and slanderous things. ” Oh wait. No, she didn’t say that. That would be the truth, and Phaedra never, ever tells the truth. She tells Andy she just had a “rash moment.” Porsha says she just wants to know at what point she was going to stop the madness. Phaedra says nothing.
Porsha says that in Hawaii, when Kandi turned to Phaedra to vouch for her that she doesn’t do drugs or rape people, it seemed really strange to her that if Kandi had said it to Phaedra, that she asked Phaedra to back her up. Porsha is really good at covering up the holes in her part of the story. She says that Phaedra assured her several times Kandi said it directly to her.
Phaedra apologized for repeating what she had heard. Please. Then Kenya gets Phaedra to admit she was behind the Marvin rumors as well. Of course she was. Phaedra is behind all of the rumors.
Andy tries to get Phaedra to admit she was pissed off at Kandi. Andy even brings up the hypocrisy of the restoration service. I think Andy is starting to get it.
The next part of this seems to have happened before all hell broke loose. It’s a package on Kandi and Phaedra’s feud. Kandi says that the lawsuit thing was Phaedra clearly trying to damage her finances. I image that Kandi will go hard at Phaedra and getting her fired from the show is just the beginning of Phaedra’s problems. Kandi does not play when it comes to her money or her reputation. Kandi says that the lawsuit is for $168,000 in overtime. Chile please, that dude was not making that kind of money planning little shindigs for Kandi. And again, event planners are NOT hourly employees. They are paid a lump sum for their services whether they take two hours or two hundred hours to accomplish the task. If I hire a kid to mow my lawn, a job that take 15-30 minutes and he takes all day to do it, he is still getting the same ten dollars.
Kandi says she gives all of her employees, even independent contractors, bonuses every year. I need to work for Kandi. Kandi says that the case in ongoing and that his attorney’s are asking for Kandi to pay their legal fees. Phaedra is still trying to say that she isn’t allowed to say that Johnny came to her for legal advice. Andy points out that it was televised. She won’t even say that she regrets going with him to the attorney she recommended. Again, it seems obvious this all happened before the blow up.
OOOH FINALLY ANGELA STANTON is mentioned. Kandi and Kenya say they were both contacted by Angela Stanton to bring up the allegations in her book. You really need to read ALL of the posts on the Angela Stanton situation HERE. Kandi says that the thing with Johnny is equivalent to Kandi meeting with Angela Stanton and offering to help her promote her book. Which clearly she just did. Let me take it a step further and suggest you go and buy the book on Amazon here. Phaedra says that would not have bothered her at all. Bitch, please.
THEN PHAEDRA LIES SOME MORE AND SAYS SHE SUED HER AND WON THE CASE. OH NO, SHE DID NOT. I just linked y’all to where you can buy the book on Amazon. She dropped the case after she realized that Angela’s pro bono attorney was not going to let Phaedra financially damage Angela by CONTINOUSLY dragging the case out. Phaedra is trying to claim that she stopped the book from being sold. She lies about things that are so easy to prove.
Phaedra denies dating Mr. Chocolate. Kandi says, ” Look, don’t make me run you all the way down on this TV show.” Oh please do, Kandi. PLEASE DO! Andy reels it in.
Kandi says that the reason she didn’t give Phaedra a lot of support with the Apollo situation was because she was dating someone else, and told Kandi she would be married by the time the year was over. Phaedra was happy and in a relationship and didn’t need any hand holding. Phaedra wants to let us know that she was not having sex. Phaedra denies having met Mr. Chocolate. Then she reverts back to her first lie that the Mr. Chocolate on the texts were from her girlfriend “White Chocolate.” Kenya lets out a sigh and says, “Oh please.”
Phaedra has told about 20 bald-faced lies in the last ten minutes of this show. Kandi says that it was wrong of her to reveal things about Mr. Chocolate on the show. She regrets that, but it was Mad Day. lol.
Phaedra says she believes that Kandi did not know that Apollo’s new chick was coming to OLG to film. She says that is because everyone believes that the wife knows everything the husband is up to and that is not true. Oh Phaedra, EVERYBODY KNOWS you were well aware of what Apollo was doing.
Andy tells Phaedra that she was caught in a megawatt lie and she has not completely copped to it. She says nothing. Andy wants to know what Phaedra is feeling. Phaedra says she has apologized already, what more can she do? She also says the person she is most concerned about is ….PORSHA. Not her good friend of many years that she viciously slandered and tried to destroy all season, but her partner in crime, Porsha. Because everydamnbody wants to cover for Porsha.
At the end, Porsha gets real slick. She knows her peach is all but gone, so she suddenly has some sort of religious transformation. She actually apologizes to Kenya for the first time ever. She tells Andy that all the women are bonded by pain and they reflect it off on each other and she doesn’t want to do that anymore. She’s sorry and she will be a good girl from now on. And clearly, Andy bought it. It’s clear Andy is done with Phaedra, but he feels like Porsha was the victim in all of this. PUHLEASE.
Andy says that Sheree had an emotional, yet triumphant season. Sheree says she feels empowered. I think Sheree should count her lucky starts that Kim has agreed to be part time next season because she has no storyline without her.
Andy tells Kenya that she has had her most drama free reunion yet, and he thinks that is a good thing. He calls Cynthia “Fiddy Cent” because since she is turning 50 she has been hashtagging everything with #50Cynt which I think is adorbs. Andy gives her a 50th birthday cake.
Well I have to say, that was worth the wait. Bye bye, Phaedra.
Good luck with your political career.
I think it’s highly disrespectful for Bravo to force Kandi to film with Porsha and Phaedra for season 10 considering everything that transpired tonight. If I was Kandi, Sheree, Kenya, Cynthia and Possibly Nene and Kim I would refuse to film with both of them. They wouldn’t be invited into my home to film anything with me and why the hell was Porsha doing that fake crying when she was apart of spreading that vicious rumor about Kandi? Maybe she was genuine and I would give her that and appreciate that she finally apologized to Kenya. Kandi could really sue because no matter what anyone says that woman could have lost her businesses and had her kids taken away, it’s truly sad that Andy didn’t give not one damn or show any compassion towards Kandi until the end. I believe in forgiveness and forgetting but hell to the naw to the naw naw naw.
Porsha kept saying that she asked Phaedra several times where the drug and rape story came from. To my mind that means porsha did not completely believe it. The story was pretty ridiculous. I am not a kandi fan and I thought it was farfetched. Porsha had to know it was bs.
IKR? Im not a Kandi fan either, but I never believed this silly story but evidently it affected Kandi a lot. Even if Phaedra lies about “Mr. Chocolate”, who cares. Move on QUICKLY! I don’t want that visual in my head. Ugh
shaedra’s next gig will be on celebrity rehab or family counseling show.
Karen, PLEASE READ THE COMMENTING RULES.
I agree!
I agree not a Kandi fan either. Porsha did not know and was a victim of Phaedra’ lies. She was used
Not a Kandi or Kenya fan. Kenya is such a hippocrit. Phadrea is a sham,so sad for her. Most people believe a lot of the things that a friend tells them even if it sounds crazy because crazy things happen, why blame her.
Then why did she keep asking shaedra about the source? She knew. Really, the whole rumor boggles the mind. WHy would Kandi trust shaedra with something like that even if it was true? Is prosha that stpuid???
I don’t think porsha is that good at acting. She genuinely realized she was phaedra’s pawn. I wish porsha had brought out her texts from phaedra. Everyone needs to read Angela Stanton’s book.!! Sucks that the housewives sign a contract that they can’t sue each other over things that are said on the show! Because kandi has a case against phaedra!
I want to read Stanton’s book…I’m going too.
Just so you are aware that stanton ‘ s book is horribly written.
I didn’t know that re: they can’t sue this is criminal federal offense. . 1. Drugging and then rape. Compared to bill Cosby!!! Well that should go for that Johnny character. Could it allegedly ? Be Phaedra doctored up his papers and perhaps allegedly had some involvement with Apollo crimes and omg the rumors about Kenya and Apollo (Kenya walked into naive and fun loving and wanting to just jab at pha but Pha yelled whore in the name of Jesus and apollo went along with it). And Stanton…bill Cosby did some good along with his alledged crimes and ppl was not forgiving and tore down statues at schools I heard. Wow pha Por and that Carlos after Todd marriage story/drama behind the scenes. Hmmm I would almost quit the show so I could go after her??????‼️
Prior to all of the roofie shit being put out there, I had actually referred to Kandi as Bill Cosby (not on her Twitter or Facebook, that’s not my bag) but it had nothing to do with drugs-It was about her roller coaster voice and weird faces. An unfortunate coincidence.
I read it on Kindle when it first came out. It’s credible. I’ll just leave it at that.
I read it as well and I believed every word of it. Phaedra is a heartless bitch.
Bravo isnt forcing anyone to do anything! They’re alll being paid well to act! Don’t get it twisted!
oh dear lord. i am still sitting with my mouth open wide. usually bravo over hypes but this, holy hell. epic. the frick AND frack need to both exit stage left.
What Phaedra did is beyond the pale.
Within the sex positive part of the adult industry (which Bedroom Kandi is part of) the absolute worst thing someone could be accused of is rape. Even not believing someone when they reported a rape to them has killed careers.
Phaedra specifically targeted Kandi with this kind of rumor because of that aspect of her business & because Kandi owns her sexuality. So very low.
I’m angry. Not the “I’m entertained” angry, but the Phaedra better not see me in the airport because I will read her from here to kingdom come and I hope she loses her law license kind of angry.
Disgusting.
Totally agree…your comments summed me up,
I like Kandi partly because she owns up to her stuff.Phaedra has been on my bad side for a long time with the fake ness,and Porsha is not that bright…but smart enough to try and cover her tracks….Fake P..is jealous of Kandi and mad that Todd is friends with Apollo..she was out for blood…Tired of FAke P….hope she is gone
You certainly have to respect her honesty and forthrightness even if you don’t liker her. While I have never been a kandi fan, I have softened by opinion of her because of her love for her daughter and her unblinking honesty and just plain common sense.
Legal guidelines state that she’s plainly culpable. So BRING IT. We’re our own!
?? as we say in church “I touch and agree with you ssiter??‼️
Birds of a feather.. Porsha is a liar same as Phaedra. Porsha knew it was a lie because she was the sexual aggressor at the club and made the jokes about rape to kandi. Porsha still denied it happened even after Kandi produced the text messages from Porsha. The dunce is throwing Phaedra under the bus to save her job. I wonder if her radio show will talk about this tommorow?
Exactly! Porsha didn’t realize she was a pawn until too late, and then she threw Phaedra under the bus to, like you said, keep her peach! They both should go, and Porshas tears on the couch never came out of her eyes.
Right. The first cry was a dry cry. Tears didn’t come out until the second cry.
I totally agree with you!!
i had way too much fun watching Phraudra get exposed for all her lies. Toyota Williams got off way too easily. i only want everyone to return to see Nene vs Freak and Fraud
“Toyota Williams”…lmao…i can’t…
Phaedra is a true sociopath. Her true colors revealed for the whole world. There’s no coming back from this. Guess all that playing with religion caught up with her. You never win when you play ddduuurrttyy. *NeNe voice*
Rolly: I agree w/you re: sociopath. I truly think there is some mental illness going on w/Phaedra. After she was busted, she sat there w/that “so what” look on her face. She is a COLD person.
Not one tear, or reaction to being busted. What is up with her? Are Phaedra’s
behaviors being induced?..
Did you see her mouth twitching so…hmmm her poor babies! And her minister mom and dad. Well we all fall short oops she already is..short well how low can you go. I got to get delis eres from theses shows??????‼️
Easily the most disturbing part of the reunion was watching Phaedra sitting there stone-faced with zero emotion. Textbook sociopath.
Ditto on the sociopath assessment. All that emotion swirling around, yet Phaedra was cool as a cucumber. Nerves of ice.
Someone on the show, maybe Kandi, jokingly referred to Phaedra as Martin Luther Phaedra, but Phaedra is actually more like Al Sharpton – a manipulator and a con artist who shakes people down and preys on their emotions. What a sick POS.
Wow. The diss to Rev Al came from left field. Smh. I respectfully disagree.
Not sure if it’s been mentioned already, but Phaedra’s twitter bio has scrubbed any reference to RHOA.
Andy sickened me pacifying porsha like a little hurt puppy like she was a victim. Kandi shouldve been the first person consulted since she was the one being torn apart this whole season. Im really disgusted with him
Totally agree. But I think this is kind of Andy’s M.O. — he always seems to believe the ones that scream the loudest, even if what they are saying is flat out lunacy. Nene, Teresa “cumin” Guidice, Vicki. Poor Phaedra stayed too quiet, not his favorite quality in a RH. Maybe if she shoved him around a bit, she’d still have a peach.
And Angela Stanton, yaassss! Very satisfying that that wasn’t swept under the rug again.
Andy’s deal is that he hates women. WHy else would he have so many shows where producers are determined to show women in the worst light possible?
Kandi should sue Phaedra.
She probably will, she is smart how she does business.
Kandi is beyond any level anger Ive seen on any of these shows.
I hope Kandi sues Parks for serious coins.
She can’t file quickly enough!! Screw any possible ROHA restrictions. The gloves are ON!! And she suited up first. You get what you give!
I think the Feds should reopen their investigation on Apollo’s and Phardra’s alleged illegal activities. Phaedra is a cool liar and there is definitely something there. If she could lie on Kandi and Todd like that, what else is she capable of doing? Phaedra is jealous of Kandi’s success and Porsha is just plain dumb and can be manipulated by anyone.
Porsha said that she heard about kandi’s “girlfriend” “from the streets…blogs and stuff like that.” But she blames the drug/rape accusation on Phaedra because she herself wouldn’t have shared something that was 3rd-hand knowledge? My head. It spins.
Porsha’s hysterics looked out on AF, especially when Andy came over and she started crying all over again (but with no tears). It takes a level head to remain composed under pressure. And we all know Porsha’s head isn’t level with anything except someone’s crotch. Allegedly.
I watched the first 15 minutes to see what all the hubub was about. First time I’ve watched in years. It looked even more fake tonight than when I quit watching. As a lifelong Atlantan I want everyone to know the vast majority of us do not curse with every breath. And, there are plenty of black women who are classy and well spoken, unlike those depicted on this show. I am an over 50 white women with a number of black friends who would NEVER speak this way. I just watched the last 15 minutes that I will ever watch of this show.
I think my mouth dropped when Kandi brought up Angela Stanton!! And Phaedra for once has no come back or funny shit to stay. Wow! She’s toast.
That made my day when Kandi brought that up! Phaedra tries so hard to keep a poker face but she had the OH SHIT look the second she said that! And the lie about the book not being sold anymore?! Give me a break! Finally, Fake ass Phaedra got put in her place!!
OMG !! love you, love you TT. I was anxiously waiting for this recap. wow, I can’t believe Porsha’s reaction was epic. I believe Porsha has being reading your site. That girl isn’t stupid, infact, she’s way smart than we give her credit for. Porsha did a good performance, dropped everything on Phaedra and made an exit.
Well that was crazy but I was hoping to hear Phaedra reveal her source (the producer). What happened to Andy getting emotional? Maybe it’s editing. Anyways this was kind of boring because they teased it for so long and then meh. I’m glad Kandi was vindicated and Phaedra exposed.
I wanted to hear that part too—where she says Carlos K told her the stuff about Kandi. I had a feeling they would edit it out though, but I do believe she said it. Boy did I love seeing her get shown for the sack of lying shit that she really is.
Who will film with Porsha? Sheree?? Maybe Kim Z will. I doubt another housewife will get hired since Kim is coming back and possibly NeNe
Also, Porshas true colors will show. She won’t have anyone to throw blame on now. Kim and NeNe will NEVER let her get away with that crap! Porsha’s day is coming
Can you imagine if Kim & Nene would have been on that couch!!! It would have been a completely different show. I was bored waiting for something else to happen. Bravo did it again, hyped it all up to get viewers!!! They have done this from the beginning.
If Phaedra has committed fraud I think she should be punished and pay restitution to her victims. With that being said I would never wish a mother to be separated from her children. She should literally pay for her crimes but the kids do not deserve to lose both parents.
I’m sure Pha’s parents would step in and care for the kids. If Pha is as guilty as Apollo, she certainly is no role model for her sons.
I think someone else is already raising Phaedra’s kids. Has been, whiie she pretended to have five occupations.
Vengeace and Jealousy have ugly consequences.
Porsha is neither that bright nor that in control. She had been pretty well versed/prepped on what questions to push, when, what to raise and which to continue to push in public.
Porsha is simply not able to think that clearly or to manage a highly charged emotional situation that well. Those moments when Porsha told the one girl to “simply be present” did not come without prompting from someone. It is neither in her vocabulary nor her mind. She was purely and simply on defensive offense. She had been trained to repeat and expound on the same points until Phaedra demurred- that’s all. Not all her points made sense but she said them so often so consistently and so loudly that Phaedra had to back off.
Phaedra had no answers because anything she said would have opened up more chains of lies/manipulation. She knew if she disagreed with Porsha she was going to scream and protect herself at all costs-she was a loose canon- and Phaedra had been manipulating so much for so long that much more could have been exposed. So she stopped talking.
Porsha on the other hand really had zero defense about why she said or did any of it- other than that she is the simpleton manipulatable frack doll. Who screams a lot to get her way.
It will be fun to learn, eventually, who wound Porsha up and prepared her.
They both need to go, not just Phaedra. Another case of Andy worried more about how it looks than what it real is. Porsha is completely culpable for her actions, thought and words. Period.
Phaedra has been a cartoon character for a very long time.
Kandi made herself vulnerable for all of this through her lifestyle and actions. Sorry but true.
The other women were non-entities to a large degree- when they could/should have broken this open. This could and should have been two episodes, not four. Enough with all the build up on reunions. One to two max, well done. And tighter seasons it has become far too long winded and the ratings will not continue.
Leave it to Atlanta to reduce this franchise to its lowest possible denominator-and
She sure loves modeling her rolls.
She is no different than Teresa Guidice. Just because she’s a mother, doesn’t mean she shouldn’t do jail-time.
And I was so close to quitting housewives. This episode just dragged me back.
Who is the better actor? Who really, truly pulled these strings and who will have the very last laugh? I better watch every stupid episode for the of my life so I can find out.
Phaedra and Porsha are terrible actresses, that alone should get them both fired. Disgusting.
Good riddance Phony Phae Phae.
I was thrilled to hear Angela Stantons get some recognition tonight. I am sure are will get a bump on sales. What was most disturbing to me was Phaedra’s reaction to everything around her. She sat frozen and silent. She almost seemed unaffected by it all. How can this woman be a mother to two young boys?
My heart goes out to Phaedra’s and Apollo’s sons…
There is something else going on here. How do we know that the man who is suing Kandi did not spread that rumor about her. She cursed him up and down. To further get back at her he could have told Phaedra those lies and she repeated them to Porsha. This could have been doing the time when he was her client remember lawyer-client confidentiality. Phaedra is not going to reveal his name, she can be disbarred. So she say Kandi told her. Though I do wonder if she knew that Porsha was going to repeat it. Phaedra has to take the fall. I don’t believe Porsha realized the ramification behind this and the extent Kandi would take it. seem like she was taking it as if you say something about me I will say something about you. They were both wretched at that restaurant.
You should never apply for a job that involves. intelligence.
Bahahaha, TT! I was in a bad mood until this. Thanks for making me smile.
Phaedra should not be able to hold a license to practice law. ? She misspelled her last name in her divorce docs purposely to make Apollo think they were divorced and to also stay legally married to him without him knowing. That way Apollo couldn’t spill her tea! I read Angela Stantons book when it first came out, it’s too detailed to be a lie!
Good recap TT, I too felt Andy wasn’t as compassionate to Kandi! Kandi is my fave!
And btw Mr.Choclate=Jamal Bryant.
Jamal Bryant????? How? What? How?
Jamal Bryant that was married to Gizelle from Potomac???! receipts please, this is too good, if true
WHAT?!?!?! NO!
I think Porsha and her Bravo boyfriend rehearsed her reunion performance so that whatever came out, her “peach” would be protected. They knew the truth was probably going to come out about the rape lie and had to get Porsha to the end of the reunion without looking like a rotten scheming little liar…did not believe that little scene between her and her sister on camera for one minute….dumb but wily like a fox
I believe this too. Porsha has spent her life pretending to be dumb..her family, marriage, friends, now t.v. She plays a I am pretty but stupid role..but it is a role.
I’m a fan of Kandi. But I never disliked Porsha and Phaedra until now! It’s a shame how 2 grown women can be so full of sh**. I can’t stand people who lies constantly just to belittle the next woman. Regardless of who don’t like Kandi. Kandi always keeps it ?. And that goes a long way with me.#RealRecognizeReal
One can only wonder how many other lies Phaedra may have told people and about what and gotten away with it to this day. She is scary. And she could have told Kandi’s employee to look for help elsewhere. As for Porsha, she either deserves an Emmy or she really did just realize that Phaedra used her as her “cat’s paw”. So glad the truth finally came out. It felt like justice.
On a side note, although this is a “Kenya friendly” blog, how annoying was she during the reunion! Like SHUT UP-SHUT UP-SHUT-UP. She was really doing the most for no reason.
Why should she shut up? She is a cast member like the rest. Is that what the rest of you Freak and Fraud fans are reaching for now? Cause Kenya made a few side comments, that’s your only way to spin this beating Freak and Fraud took tonight? Pathetic.
You don’t have to be a Kenya fan to be in here.
I personally am glad she didn’t shut up.
She asked and got answers to the questions we wanted answers to. As for people who hate Kenya you don’t care about truth you care about your hate that’s it. Apollo said he lied on Kenya. Phaedra admitted she’s a liar but yet Kenya is blamed for everything and the liar. Next thing ya know Phaedra Phans will blame Kenya for the accusations she made against kandi cuz cuz ya know Kenya “provokes” people
I was telling Kenya to shut up from my couch as well, and I am a Kenya fan. But at the end with Phaedra she managed to bring out all of the Marvin stuff that Andy wasn’t asking about, so that was awesome.
I’m in the minority I can’t stand Andy I think he’s a horrible interviewer.
Maybe he’s fun at parties and that’s why he’s so popular lol. I wished they would give the hosting duties to someone unbiased or at least decent interviewers.
I hate to break it to you, Fat Chick, but I think you are in the majority. 🙂 He really does suck.
I personally loved that Kenya got to go after shaedra. Shaedra has told lie after lie about her. Shaedra jsut forgot that you get what you sow, more than you sow and later than you sow. Justice.
This was the first time in all the years this show has been on that I’ve heard any one of them talk about Phaedra’s fraudulent activities and Angela Stanton’s book.
Now we know why Andy doesn’t like Kenya because he’s been believing Phaedra’s lies all these years. I remember in Hawaii when Kandi went off, Phaedra approached her and started mentioning stuff done against her. Kenya had to pull Phaedra away and say now is not the time.
Andy has always been blinded by Phaedra. Last fall on his radio show Andy was thinking out loud on giving Phaedra her own radio show. He was so impressed with her when she interviewed him without questions written on note cards. It was held at a Jewish center in Atlanta.
Porsha doesn’t need any more legal troubles so she smartened up real quick by throwing Phaedra under the bus. I guess that cease and desist shook her up and also gave her an out.
Kandi mentioning Angela Stanton the way she did was absolutely brilliant.
Yeah I think since she got that C & D from Kandi, Porsha was like ok I am not getting sued or in trouble for none of this. Phaedra wanted Porsha to say it was told to Phaedra. It was told to Phaedra but Phaedra apparently told Porsha something different, that Kandi said it. That is what messed this whole thing up. They did not get their storys straight. Phaedra thought Porsha would go along with the plan to protect both of them. They end up talking about it anyway, even after the C & D was placed on Porsha. She still spoke on it. This whole season was stupid. All about hear say. Carlos King started the lie and that was not said on the show. Phaedra did not want to speak his name or they edited that out, so as not to get sued by Carlos. He claimed he was not fired and that he quit and has something else., but I don’t buy it. Leaving RHOA for a Podcast. Phaedra did not want to say the name so that is prob why they edited it out.
No one told Phaedra anything. Phaedra made it up.
Wouldn’t it be interesting to know just how many seasons of how many of the city franchises have been taken over by the producers to the extent that they changed the entire outcome of the season?
We’ve been told it happened in S 3-4-5 of New Jersey, with the producer Kat, who had her favorites and presented only what she wanted to show . We have clearly seen similar things in OC, BH, etc., It was obvious in NY at certain points.
Of course they have quite a bit of influence on direction and editing of all shows; this is different. This involves deliberate manipulation to go after one person or another, not just for a ” the bad edit” but for personal, hostile or supportive reasons of one type or another.
Some of them have led directly to specific actions in people’s lives, from suicides, to divorce, jail, whatever- is that what these shows and the roles in them were intended to do ?
For the editors/producers to be a Greek Chorus who decides who lives/dies/succeeds by their choice?? Carlos King should not have that kind of control- .
Wow Phaedra truly is a sociopath. I already figured that about her long ago but she just confirmed it tonight. Sitting there like a cat got her tongue, totally blank expression. She could not for the life of her just tell the truth that she made it all up.
All of that hollering and shrieking from Porsha was way too much. Seemed totally forced. I wish they’d fire her too.
I think Phaedra was medicated tonight. Her affect was so flat, and typically she is very expressive with her facial expressions and hand gestures (see gifs in this blog).
Loves the Angela Stanton shout out; prior to tonight TT was the only place that I had read about Angela. Good for Kandi for mentioning her by 1st and last name, mentioning the book, the contents (fraud) and where to buy it. Sorry Phaedra payback is a B.
Angela stanton was at OLG tonight for a suprise visit. Check out Kandis IG story.
Yeah.. I just heard of this (Stanton) between episodes and I wonder just how much apollo knows did and covered for pha and if she used allegedly rhe kids to say we both can’t go to prison. ?Just a thought TT
Just put in an order for Angela’s book. Thanks for the link. Our birthday is coming up so I got myself a lil sumthin sumthin. One day on the near future I will be putting in an order for yours magnum opus.

All I know is Kenya needs to go to. She is not a Housewives and never have been one. She’s an instigator and needs to be kicked to the Curb along with Phadra.
In all fairness, there are probably more non-housewives than housewives across all of the franchises. Being an instigator does not warrant losing her peach.
Actual tears being cried at a Housewives reunion show….that may be a first.
Glad Cynthia’s wig did not go up in smoke at the end.
I was scared for Cynthia’s wig too ! I immediately thought of the late Michael Jackson.
Did anyone question why they had a four-part reunion? They knew BEFORE hand that there would be drama. This is a reality show with a lot of FAKE drama in order to keep you hook. I don’t pay that much attention to the finale of this show. WHY? Because they want you to return next season. Their ratings have dropped a little and this is bound to raise it up somewhat. Remember last season on the finale. There were hints that Kenya might be pregnant? Was she? No.
To see the way these relationships have disintegrated is truly sad. Kandi really helped Porsha out with her musical etc. and to have both her and Phaedra turn on her like they did had to have been really hurtful. I wish Kandi would have said something like since she and Todd have been together she hasn’t wanted to be with anyone else sexually and neither has he. For real, Freak and Fraud sooo should have known better than to create outright lies, repeat any kind of gossip from the “streets,” Who does that?? Phaedra is supposed to be an attorney, and Porsha is supposed to be a journalist? Come on now. I’ve been a journalist for about twenty years, my family is full of lawyers, and NONE of that kind of thing is tolerated. They both should be fired.
KENYA -& KANDI ALL THEY DO IS START MESS. PHANDRA – PORSCHA TOO ALL OF THEM GOSSIP. THE PRODUCER WANT THEM TO STIR OF DRAMA. FOR RATING. ALL KANDI DO GET MAD. SHE keep DRAMA GOING TO..TODD DID LIKE PORSCHA ..THAT WHY KANDI IS CRYING & MAD.
Kandi does not start drama. IMO, she lives by what she often says: don’t start none, won’t be none. She has a laid back personality unless you come for her mama, her money, or her man. Phaedra messed with her money.
Phaedra came for Kandi’s mama, her money, her marriage, her business and her reputation. It is coming back to bite her now. I would not be surprised if Phaedra is in trouble with the state bar. That may be why she was so quiet. That, and she seemed medicated.
WHAT THE WHAT??
Phaedra is that you ?
You spelled your name wrong again !
“All Kandi do”? Do? It’s DOES. Stop with the ghetto speak. You sound ignorant.
Wow. I can’t think of any words that could articulate how I feel about your comment.
Hey Ms. TT and all the readers:
I have not posted here in quite a while, but I had to weigh in on this discussion because I have held my opinions about what’s been going on the RHOA for quite some time, and I finally must get this off my chest. I personally believe that Porsha received the cease and desist order from Kandi a day or two before the reunion and contacted a lawyer to determine what legal repercussions could come about because of the serious allegations she and Phaedra made about Kandi on national television. IMHO, her lawyer advised her to reveal the “source” who told her the rumors as a way to defend herself against the cease and desist order. Tonight’s final episode was an attempt to make it seem as if Porsha had been duped by Phaedra, and what we saw could set up an alibi of plausible deniability for Porsha and distance herself from Phaedra in the event this case moves forward to civil court or even possibly criminal court depending upon what legal statues Kandi’s attorney can find to have enforced against Porsha, Phaedra, and possibly Sheree (the proud resident bone carrier) who too was complicit in this mess by repeating every slanderous conversation she had with the former two this season.
I feel, Sheree was not afraid of Kandi’s reaction, but instead she was afraid of being exposed as a willing known party to the bs and sued as a defendant for the blatant false allegation. If you notice, Sheree was there to give Porsha a shoulder to lean on, and the two of them pulled away from Phaedra as a way to separate themselves from the lies they had spread throughout season, and then they could lay all the responsibility for the rumors at Phaedra’s feet. Sheree is not innocent, she just knew not to repeat the serious lies Phaedra and Porsha said on camera as a way to protect herself. She too should lose her peach and puff..begone permanently!!!
It is also my belief that Porsha is on the verge of being fired by her various employers (Rickey Smiley, Dish Nations, Fox TV, Radio One, and any other corporate entity that she may be associated with) because of the defamatory statements she made against Kandi. Her malicious comments could be grounds for termination due to a violation of a morals clause in each of her contracts, thus the need to bring up, “(she) checks for facts on Dish Nation.” She is not a “journalist” as an on air personality for these entertainment outlets, and therefore, is not protected by freedom of speech under the first amendment of the constitution. The higher ups at her various places of employment have probably told her privately that she is hurting their corporate image and brand by continuing to allow her to work for them. I hope they all review the footage and her contracts, and then fire her ASAP. Kandi is well liked in the music industry and Atlanta radio. Entertainment execs are not going to protect Porsha against Kandi, and this situation may have finally burnt the bridges Porsha had to people who were willing to give her a chance based upon her “family name and legacy”.
Real shots were finally fired when Kandi brought up Angela Stanton, and I loved it!!! Her book is about to be a best seller. Johnny needs to withdraw that lawsuit, and chalk his so called financial loss up to the game.
Shamea Morton needs to cut all ties with Porsha and move on with her life. She held her own against the right couch, but she refused to comprehend that Porsha is not her friend any longer. IMHO, Phaedra and Porsha have acted like two territorial jealous-hearted controlling friends who had been dumped by each of their former besties, Kandi and Shamea. Porsha introduced Shamea to Kandi and the group, and then Porsha felt Shamea left her behind to be with the person she had introduced Shamea to, Kandi. Likewise, Phaedra and Kandi would share everything together (births, bridal showers, weddings, etc.), and now Kandi was sharing all these events with Shamea, who Phaedra felt had taken her position in Kandi’s life. So, the two scorned friends found solace in one another and got together to form Freak n Fraud, Inc. They can dis their former friends because they are now frenemies, so they can freely trash Kandi and Shamea anywhere at any time to anyone.
Andy Cohen was actually stunned when the truth was revealed, but he immediately began to think about how he could do damage control or minimize the legal fallout of this rumor, face the Bravo/NBC/Comcast execs, and protect himself from any lawsuits. This is why there is a close up confessional with Porsha where he suggests apologizing to Kandi on air. We must not forget that at the season 6 reunion, Porsha attacked Kenya after being coached by Nene and Phaedra on the how and why Porsha could justify doing it. Nene then proceeded to nearly snuff out Porsha live on air in the same hallway everyone took a break in after the blowup. Andy knew if there was another Porsha incident, not only would Porsha be out, he would be out too. He was not trying to save Porsha, he was simply trying to protect himself and find a way to not be completely blackballed by the television industry.
Finally, I loved how Cynthia did not take Sheree’s, the bone carrier’s bait when Kandi forced filming to stop. Cynthia should real sincerity and maturity regarding the allegations, so big kudos to her. Sheree went from being emotionally distraught to digging for information to gossiping and trying to set up next year’s storyline without batting an eye. I do not believe Bob physically abused her. I do believe he has mentally, emotionally, and financially abused her, abandoned her, and cheated on her with other women, which is the reason why Tammy was brought onto the show during season 8 (which did not work out). Sheree does not have Bob to help create a storyline, Phaedra is out, Porsha will flip or flop if she is part of the cast, and Nene will definitely come for her sooner than later, if she rejoins the cast. Kim can only help her storyline to a small degree. She does not have any outside businesses, she won’t allow her creditors court proceedings to air, and Neverland will never be complete. The only thing left is her son, and most reputable agencies will not tolerate his meddling mommager. Maybe Ms. Lawrence will come back for a few cameos with Sheree and Kenya. Only time will tell.
GoldenIndigo You are so on point, I read the same as you. Kudo’s, to you. I admire someone that can read the map the way that you have. Thank You.
Great acting ladies see you next season .
I don’t believe Kandi was acting – she knows reality of being on a reality show, but Phaedra crossed a line, and Kandi’s reaction and her disposition at the reunion showed and were genuine.
Is it just me or Phaedra should have been apologizing to Kandi? Why is she only apologizing and concerned about Porsha? Phaedra went too far and for an attorney to make criminal accusations about someone who was her friend is ridiculous. She should just come clean apologize because we all know she called the Feds on Kandi and Todd. Now she’s stooped even lower accusing Kandi of wanting to drug and rape Porsha. Low down dirty liar. Now I believe she lied in Apollo as well.
What Phaedra did was wrong, she should be sued. My cousin has worked for Kandi, and was even in her wedding. She didn’t receive any bonuses not even a penny.
However, she was an intern.
Interns are usually not paid, so, yeah.
Phaedra is a sociopath and a pathological liar. I find her to be very insecure and is never loyal to anyone but herself. She seems disassociated with her own truth with no empathy what so ever for Kandi and what she has caused. She shows no guilt or conscious about her wrongdoing which was so blatant in what she has caused. Phaedra was playing the mediator at the restoration yet she was the one behind the vindictive plot. She is so insecure about herself being involved with Apollo that it shows in every way. First she befriended Kenya going on the camping trip then in Hawaii she gets jealous about Kenya and Apollo. Then she goes against Kandi by taking Johnny’s case to sue her and told Kandi she’s not allowed to speak of his case. Yet speaks about Kandi going through Porsha. So she’s proven to be devious and manipulative trying so hard to be Porsha’s friend because she really doesn’t know how to be one. She has a lot of issues within herself and doesn’t prove to be true not even to herself. Sadly plastic.
I don’t always comment on this but I’m an avid reader of your blog Tamara. I love that you fact check , are on top of things and are objective.
Personally I think both Phaedra and Porsha need to go, yes Phaedra fed Porsha the lies this time but she has also been spreading lies for many seasons . I think Porsha’s rumours about Peter cheating may have also contributed to the demise of their marriage.
For many seasons now I’ve hated watching Phaedra – I never liked her from the on set, it scares me to think that people can be that evil. I always believe when people like Phaedra finally fall, it will be a downward spiral. I’m sure this is only the start – as Todd said “the FBI is watching”. I feel sorry for their children but Phaedra will be humbled eventually. The world has seen her for who she truly is.
Thanks for a great recap Tamara
the show is horrible. Ridiculous.
PHADERA, PHADERA, PHADERA! There’s one word to sum-up this chick and that’s SOCIOPATH. Her parents failed her as a child, they should have had her medicated and under psychiatric help. They knew that trick wasn’t right as a child.
Look this is how I see it everyone on this show is messy EVERYONE! He who is without sin cast the first stone. No one here has the right to speak. Especially Kenya cause she kept gunning for everybody from the first day in RHWOA. They all suck as friends friends like these who needs enemies. They all here things and repeated. Stop it before you spread what you hear in the streets bring it to the person. That goes to everybody and for chocolate was a friend of Phaedra from back in the days he is a stripper. If you saw this reality show from day one you would know who he is yet Kandi kepted saying how Phaedra was seeing him and how he melts in her mouth. Which was not true but she repeated from Apollo. Yet Apollo and Todd kept talking shit about Phaedra. Kandi also trashed talk about Nene and Porsha and so on. Then Kenya talked soo much trash about everybody even Kim that she met for the first time at the house party. So she’s the last who should be talking period. No one should leave the show on one. They all make the show . Even trash talking Kenya. Also Kandi’s mom said so much shit about Todd’s mom that she heard in the streets may Todd’s mom RIP. She was taken way to soon. I want them all to to work things out because EVERYONE got they’re talk from the streets. They are all just messy. Just one request please don’t give Apollo’s mistress a spot again or Apollo please!
Um no, but okay.
My sentiments exactly….I don’t feel bad for Kandi. I’m wondering what she has done in her life that would warrant this level of KARMA. I don’t agree with Phaedra nor Porsha nor Carlos actions. I firmly believe Kandi is merely reaping what she showed…
Perhaps Phaedra’s need for revenge against Kandi made her simply the tool by which Karma is finally punishing Phaedra.
No one deserves what Phaedra put Kandi through. It’s not about feeling bad for anyone, it’s about recognizing that Phaedra’s was exposed and Kandi was exhonerated from the evil plot against her.
Exactly!
The lies never end with Phaedra. She even lies about public information like lawsuits! TT is right. Phaedra DID NOT win her defamation lawsuit against Angela Stanton. A judge dismissed it. At the time Phaedra said she “agreed to a dismissal.” She made it sound like she asked the judge to throw out her case and the judge said okay. That is not at all the way it works. I can’t take it y’all. I knew Phaedra was bad, but I had no idea she was a sociopath.
Does anyone know whether Kandi really sent Porsha the cease and desist letter?
Yes, everyone knows Kandi really sent the letter. Even the idiots who were making up wild claims that Phaedra sent it. Those are the same idiots that made up the stuff about Todd asking Porsha about Apollo. All made up nonsense.
Bravo – They could have used that episode as the only Reunion show. The other 3 weren’t needed.
Phaedra – omg. She took it to another level. Her Get Back game is to strong. That type of hate runs deep. She showed no facial emotion when she was busted. Her lip started shaking at one point, but that was it. I’m convinced she’s a disturbed woman.
Porsha – should have used her “True Tea Bih” tag line. Lol. Did I hear her apologize to Kenya. She’s shook..Bravo is watching, and she sees the mortgage payment on that new mansion in jeopardy. She knows what side the bread is buttered on. Did y’all see how far she sat away from Phaedra. She was almost in Sheree’s lap. Lol
Kenya – love her ! I’m on her team. Wish she had fixed her boob because something seemed off or maybe it was the lighting on my TV. Lol.
Kandi – Vindicated. I think I saw her cry more than she’s ever cried before. I’m glad the truth came out.
Did anyone else notice how twitter is blowing up with people saying they are buying the book now? Phaedra finally messed with the wrong person.
How is it that Phaedra showed NO emotion at all with all the hysterics going on around her?? Her face has launched a thousand Gifs so it was unsettling to see her straight – faced through it all.
Definitely not a fan of Kandi and especially that Kenya. I don’t care for Padres either. I think my girl Porscha needs to just separate herself from all these ladies and do her own thing. Clearly, big opportunities are popping for her. She doesn’t need to associate herself with the likes of these women. #teamPorscha
Typo… Phaedra
FINALLY! Someone dragged this fake & producer fed b.s. into the open. I’m glad it was Kandi. Andy & Porsha should get awards for acting shocked at all of this. Kandi backed Fraudra into a corner to where she couldn’t say who told her exactly what she should say.
How Porsha isn’t fired & Andy replaced as reunion host is beyond me. He’s catty & I realized this is why he got pissy with NeNe on WWHL last week. She called Fraudra out & Andy was pissed because Andy was trying to keep the script and NeNe isnt on the payroll.
I know reality tv isn’t reality but this show really showed how produced it is with last nights episode.
Todd saying “Drag her, Porsha. You can drag her now!” had EVERYONE in my house rolling for a good 30 seconds. Todd is savage and I’m here for it,
Totally off topic sort of:
Anyone else notice even though the lying liars that lie were outed somehow they must still be telling the truth about Kenya?
I know hate runs deep but did Kenya poison your dog? Steal your man? Talk shit about your Pokemon?
Someone please explain.
A lying phake phraud phony Christian lies about something that could potentially have someone’s children taken away and also be arrested but you still believe her lies about Kenya?
And we know dadgum well porsha is dumber than a box of rocks to come up with the lies herself.
We sat and watched 1st part of reunion where Phaedra LIED and said Kenya was flirting with Apollo and that’s why they fell out.
NO.
Its because Phaedra couldn’t manipulate Kenya like she does porsha and Kenya called her out over the video.
Is it too rational to think maybe just maybe the lies Phaedra and porsha started about Kenya so you’d hate her are just lies?
I’m not going to state the obvious here. Instead I will lightent he moment by bringing up Sheree in the final seconds going to (what Cindy thought was a hug for her birthday, but in reality was a lean in to say) “Girl You know I am going to have to have a piece of that cake”! I wanted a slice too. That thing looked gooood.
I’m happy for Angela and I hope her book sales sky rocket!! Yeah, it was a tough read but I could never look at Phaedra the same way after I read the book. I believe her whole mortician gig was just another way to get names and social security #’s of the deceased in order to carry out her crimes. Regardless of what we may think about Porsha’s intelligence, I truly believe Phaedra was playing her exactly like she played Angela. She keeps her hands clean while she has others carry out her plans. She sat their saying nothing and showing no emotion because she’s a lawyer and knows the law. The best thing she could do was keep her big mouth shut. It’s the first thing any decent lawyer tells their client is to keep quiet.
Someone up thread stated she should have to pay monetarily but not go to jail because she’s a mother. That’s insane. Prisons are full of mothers…Phaedra is a criminal and should definitely serve time. It’s of my opinion that she eventually will…like Todd said, the FBI is still watching…
Hmmm. Very interesting theory about the mortician gig. Could be why she was so furious when Apollo did not share her enthusiasm for funerals.
The reunion really showed that Andy couldn’t care less for Kenya. He walked right by her and ignored her. No love at all, not even a ‘can you believe this?’.
Then Kenya is the lucky one. Andy has terrible taste in HW’s.
Andy lives for the reunions. He probably wears spanks to these cat fights!
ANdy, don’t mess with Kandi.
IMO Andy Cohen Bravo and producers are just as culpable as Phaedra. They should all be ashamed and should all be fired.
I personally think Phaedra stayed quiet while repeatedly being asked questions by Andy because everything she said could and would be held against her in a court of law. Her only defense was to keep saying it’s what she heard…but if Porsha has receipts?? I think Kandi should throw her contract with bravo away and sue the crap out of Phaedra.
I officially hate Andy. And Phaedra. BYE GIRL BYE! His “epic” four part reunion just prolonged these women’s turmoil. I mean, let’s get real, that’s why we watch, but this season sat on the brink of legal. Andy knew this. Dude. He knew this.
