I normally go into these “Secrets Revealed” episodes wondering why I am even going to recap this as they almost never reveal any secrets. However, I believe this time there may have been some things added after the reunion was filmed to shed some light on the Phaedra situation. So I am mildly optimistic. I am also having a case of THE CRAZY today, and my brain is not functioning to well so this may take longer than usual.
Freak and Phraud
We start with Porsha lying in confessional. She is really trying to get us to believe that the alliance with Phaedra is an actual friendship. In Maui, these two and the stunt boyfriend, Todd, hang out in the hotel room. Then Phaedra lies in her talking head. She says,” Frick and Frack’s relationship is so special, no one can break that up.”
Sheree’s Book
Someone who is supposed to be my friend gave me a copy of Sheree’s book. I have been trying to read it. It is sooooo badly written and ridiculous I can only do like a paragraph a day. I was thinking of starting a group of posts with some of the more hilarious things in the book. Just recently I inferred from the book that the dookey brown stucco was meant to make one feel as though they are at a high end Mexican resort. I also inferred that Sheree must not have ever been to a high end Mexican resort. To me, Chateau Sheree looks more like a federal women’s prison. There is still time left for her to experience that.
Sheree and Phaedra end up in the LGBT section of a bookstore, that I am certain does not carry Sheree’s book, to discuss Kandi and Porsha’s relationship. It’s been many years but I have been in this bookstore. It’s very LGBT friendly. So this makes it that much more cringe worthy when Phaedra makes lesbian slurs about Porsha “being into sushi.” She also did some sort of holy dance to get the lustful demons away from her when Sheree feels the need to repeat the graphic offers of oral sex that Porsha made to Kandi. Phaedra, the sanctified Christian, says she needs to hook a lie detector up to their vagina lips to get at the truth and then asks Jesus to fix it. There is something very wrong with Phaedra Parks.
Next we are at a hookah lounge. This is interesting because the girl who owns this lounge, Lena, was supposed to be on the show but did not make the cut. We see here very briefly in this scene.I do not understand this entire scene. The purpose of it seems to be to show that Sheree told Porsha that Kandi says Porsha and Block had sex. Then she also says that Kandi didn’t say that. Is it my brain issue or is this whole scene hard to follow?
Phaedra tells the ladies about her meeting with Kandi. I suppose this was filmed at the time when Kenya and Phaedra were pretending to get along, because Kenya is trying to advise Phaedra on how to make things right with Kandi. Phaedra brings up her sending the Feds to Kandi’s house as if she has nothing to do with that. She did. If nothing else she said on national TV that they were hiding assets in their home for Apollo. Right after that episode aired, there was a knock on Kandi’s door. Why in the hell did they not tell Lena to turn off the tacky whirling colored lights. That is not helping me focus on this scene. Cynthia tries to teach Phaedra how to make an apology.
We have a montage of Kenya and Phaedra pretending to get along. Phaedra tells Kenya that Apollo is “actively contesting” the divorce. Phaedra also lies about not dating anyone.
We get to see unseen footage of Kenya consulting with a guy about increasing her home security. She asks for a fence that could electrocute a guy that is 6’7″. Kenya says she has access to multiple guns.
Phaedra took a limo ride in Philadelphia with her high school prom date. He says she is a bit thicker than she was. Phaedra talks about how all men love her. At some point they just pull the car over and let Ronnie out at the corner. Run, Ronnie. RUN!
Noelle and Cynthia call Leon to wish him a happy Father’s Day. It interesting that was shown today because Cynthia received a lovely floral arrangement for Mother’s Day from Leon. We see Kandi and her family out for a Father’s Day picnic. Riley did not contact Block. Bob helped Kairo move into his dorm room. In this family themed montage, we get to see Dylan crying at the dentist.
There was a really sad scene of Cynthia and Peter’s final goodbye.
Noelle and Cynthia have a long conversation about how hard the divorce was on Noelle. Noelle says she got most of her information online. That’s sad.
Kandi tells the story of when she packed up all of her stuff and left Ace in the house. She says she got all the way out of her neighborhood before she noticed. Ace is a partner in his clothing line. He is also the face of the company, so of course he had his own photo shoot. Cynthia stopped by to help out.
We see a hilarious scene where Cynthia and Sheree were terrified while crossing a very long suspension bridge on the camping trip. Kenya of course had to jump up and down and shake the bridge, despite that being against the rules. Then we are back to the Flint trip where Phaedra is trying to instill values into children. Phaedra in no way explained to the kids what courage is. Phaedra says, “We have courage because we are here.” Then it literally rains on Phaedra’s tea party on a little boat. Phaedra and Kenya and the little girls all get under the table on the boat as if they were all witches who would melt if they got wet. Later, Kenya gives an inspirational speech to the kids about turning their sadness and disappointment into their strengths. One of the campers has a huge emotional breakdown.
In some unseen Maui footage we see Peter trying to get Porsha to take accountability for her lies. He says that she has accused him of all sorts of false things and she never holds herself accountable. It was also interesting that Todd (the fake boyfriend) said that they should consider the source of the lies. At this point there was only Phaedra and Peter and Porsha and Todd at the table. Oh Sheree and Bob are there but not really a part of this. Phaedra has the never to say that Peter needs to stop telling lies about her. Peter says that Phaedra cosigns on every lie Porsha tells. Porsha says that Peter was just a casualty of the war between her and Cynthia. It ends with Porsha saying she is going to continue to speak her truth.
So watching this secrets revealed episode tonight and this season could have been so bomb with Leilani, Lena, Maryam and Hazel. Lena had a whole damn storyline and was cut for what? False rape rumors and a damn babynup? I can’t seem to understand why women keep getting passed up for drama that us viewers don’t care about anymore. Nene Vs. Kenya, Kenya Vs. Phaedra, Kenya Vs. Phaedra and Porsha and vice versa, it’s so old and played out and Bravo so many fake things on this show has come to light y’all are gonna have to bring something brand new to season 10 that us viewers are gonna say damn that was crazy and not just because someone is spreading rumors that could ruin them and land them in jail. This is exactly why you guys can’t get any top stars who live in Atlanta on this show and it’s because the content and the things you let go on for ratings.
A lot of these scenes should have been a part of the season. It rounds out a lot of things instead of just having run on scenes weekly about the same subject matter. It really looked even worse for Phraudra with these scenes. It also looked like she loves trolling the courthouse for vulnerable jailbreak guys too. Porsche lying ass irks every fiber of my being with her lies told in the shrillest voice ever. She should not continue to get away with her bullshit. Whether she knows or not – she will always be known for her retaliatory spaghetti lies. Ugh. Oh yeah & it looks like Fake had no problem discussing divorce with Kenya either.
It looks like Bravo is letting everyone know that Phaedra and Porsha were given ample opportunity to come clean and stop with the lies but those 2 chose to keep piling it on. Sad that “the rent-a-boo” Todd even tried to help Porsha clean up the mess in Maui by opening the door for Porsha to say Phaedra told her but Porsha being all too desperate for a juicy storyline and a bigger check refused to shame the lime light with her accomplice Phaedra. “Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.”
???????? exactly
The fraudulent actives of Phaedra continue to be exposed.. I guess an old interview of Angela Stanton is finally circulating and it seems that people’s eyes are finally open to her ways. I’ve always felt that something in the milk wasn’t clean with Ms Parks.
I hate Porsha’s expression “tell my truth”. There is no your truth and my truth, there is only THE truth. Everything else is alternative facts. Further, Phaedra, ones vagina does not have lips. If yours does I can only say,
Fix it, Jesus
What kind of friend would give you Sheree’s book TT? Sounds pretty shitty; I think you should meet up with her for lunch at the OLG to discuss your friend contract this this person…
I would, but THE CRAZY is back, I’m going to need a month or so to fix it.
She’s a good friend, she can wait. ❤️
I did find the last ending scene of Phaedra holding a peach and saying ..you look like a peach but your not, somewhat interesting – considering.
Yes I was just about to post this!
That was 100% intentional, separating it from the rest of that footage reel and then sticking it at the very end.
That’s the only scene that stood out to me lol
what a boring episode. I’m still so hung up over episode 4 of the reunion that i’m dreaming about it. lol At first, waaay before the reunion1 episode aired, I dreamed I was coming after Porsha to fight her defending Kandi but Kandi blocked me….I woke up confused because the reunion had not aired and most of Kandi’s anger was directed at Porsha so why would she defend her?. Now I know why…Kandi knows Porsha is easily manipulated and was used by Phaedra and Kandi used her too by threatening her with a lawsuit in a text if she didn’t name her source. That was all in that episode out of kandi’s mouth!!! I think they all knew before the reunion started Phaedra was going down by Porsha. This morning I had a dream that made me feel really confused over Phaedra. I don’t hate her so much. I saw her in a corner standing alone. Maybe that’s how she felt because no one put her there. Kandi was seated in a chair relaxed in my living room but they were arguing back and forth…Phaedra and kandi. Then Kandi says her line “don’t start none there won’t be none” and Phaedra slowly walked toward Kandi…I didn’t trust her not to attack Kandi while kandi was seated and Kandi in my dream didn’t trust her either so she got up. She walked passed Phaedra and poked her in the side with her finger as she walked passed her. Kandi wanted to get away from her but Phaedra full on attacked Kandi and then….KANDI POUNDED HER FACE IN…I mean they fell to ground and kandi was punching Phaedra in the face. I had a strange response to this for some reason…like in real like I would have pulled kandi off of Phaedra but in the dream I didn’t…I held Phaedra..who had quit fighting at this time..her hands and I was screaming at Kandi to stop because Phaedra couldn’t hurt her anymore. Kandi got off of her but Phaedra was pregnant in the dream. I didn’t realize it until after the fight and Phaedra was in a lot of pain and I thought she was miscarrying.. I asked Kandi did you hit her in the belly?? I was crying over PHAEDRA in the dream. CRYING!!! Or over her child but I felt pity. It was weird. I don’t like Porsha or Phaedra. oh I need a life. lol
LOL. I thought I was the only one who allowed this mess to damage my brain cells.. I’m to the point were I don’t want to see none of them anymore.. This was to murch!! LOL. I’m going to snatch my life back and rejuvenate my brain.. LOL
Pam, I’ve had dreams where I’m a housewife with various franchises. Usually always wearing light pink suits and have blond hair (I don’t). It’s crazy but don’t feel alone.lol
I’m glad to know I’m not the only one that dreams of the housewives, I’ve dreamed of the Beverly Hills bunch quite a few times. LOL. And they are always trying to kick me out off the show.
You mean that’s how Sheree’s house is supposed to look? I thought she just hadn’t painted it yet. Disturbing.
When Sheree was talking to her publisher in the beginning, I realized that every time or thing she works on,she says the exact same thing regarding the time, effort, hard work, doubt etc. Identical every time. She must have it memorized for future awards. Lol.
My favorite part of this episode was when Peter referred to Porsha as “Simple”. It was so quick I almost missed it. He Hit the Nail Right On The Head!
This is all so insane. Does anyone else find it odd that Kandi (who cares so much about her rep and brand) and Todd would still WANT to be friends with either Phaedra or Apollo? I like Kandi but I am starting to wonder how she could be so surprised about Phaedra since they were once so close. Even if she didn’t know about the illegal activities (and I doubt that with Mama Joyce’s streets and all) she must have had a clue about how Phaedra was to other people?
I loved the scene with Kenya talking to the kids. I think she seemed real. She cared. l
I was a little surprised at Cynthia and Noelle’s conversation. I mean really, she never told her child, who was close to Peter, that they were divorcing? That all seems way to strange. I love Cynthia but I am beginning to think that maybe she is just really detached from things.
