I really hope that RHOOC Reunion is not going to air after RHOA every Sunday because this schedule is brutal for bloggers. Let’s see what is going on this week in the ATL.
We start with Kandi and Todd at Dr. Jackie’s office. They want to talk to her about what to do with the two eggs they have left. They are thinking about using a surrogate to carry their babies from here on out because Kandi has fibroids and doesn’t want to go through the surgery to remove them again. Plus the fibroids make her a high risk pregnancy. Todd wants to do two surrogates at the same time.
I don’t understand why one surrogate can’t take both embryos at once. I remember when I was teaching, a fellow teacher had multiple embryos implanted and what seemed to me very late in the pregnancy had what I think is called selection reduction where one of the embryos was, um aborted. This of course was the talk of the school all year. My point is, people have twins all the time. I think two embryos would be just fine. This is probably why I am not a doctor. Todd doesn’t want to leave any embryos behind. Then Dr. Jackie says they are looking at between $90K-$130K per surrogate. WTF do they need all of that money for? Dr. Jackie has a patient who has been a surrogate before. Oh wait. Suddenly the twin thing is an option.
For Eva to be a “top model” Her poses before her scenes are plum awful. I’m just saying. Eva and Mike chat at a cigar bar about the wedding. Is she pregnant while smoking this cigar? She looks like it an I can’t remember. I guess you don’t inhale cigar smoke thought so???Oh she is drinking a Moscow Mule so maybe she isn’t. I can’t remember the timeline.
Dennis and Porsha go to meet Dennis’s mother for dinner. It’s Porsha’s first time meeting his mother so she arrives in a virginal white dress. His mom wears satanic red. Porsha gives the mom a Louis Vuitton zipper wallet for her birthday. She’s unaffected and onto Porsha’s attempts to butter her up. Mama is not happy that Dennis declared his love for being on a TV show Porsha on the first night. She thinks they are moving way too fast. But filming season happens when it happens, Mama! Mama wants a prenup. I am not sure Dennis actually owns the things he says he owns. He may have a small partnership in the companies. Or maybe he has money. But Mama Joyce’s streets sure are talking.
I think this thing between Mike and Cynthia might be for real y’all. She says they talk eight or nine times a day.
Apparently, Shamari is going to be the new Phaedra. She’s having a birthday party for her one year old twins and has invited a hundred people. Shamari drops a bomb on her mother-in-law while shopping for expensive cakes. She and Ron almost divorced at one point and they also had an open relationship for a year and a half. Shamari wanted to have a relationship with another woman.
The Original Hot Dog Factory has delivered all kinds of hot dogs to Cynthia’s party. I hear their hot dogs are fantastic and I keep meaning to get over there but that would require showering and putting on clean clothes and the forecast for that happening any time soon is dim. This is the first time all the girls have been invited to Lake Bailey.
Eva is working so hard to get in with Nene, she has even invited her to be at her wedding. She continues to come for Cynthia which is a mistake. Eva says that Cynthia paid Will to date her. I heard the same thing from my trusted sources. Tanya makes her debut at Cynthia’s party as Nene’s friend. Or as Nene says one of her clients at her store. None of this is true, she is straight from central casting just like Shamari. And Eva. They have the same birthday. Shamea and Lauren come with Porsha to the party. Eva is still trash talking Shamea. Porsha and Shamea look really pretty in their dressed down looks. Less makeup is a good thing for both of them. Shamea is pregnant.
I really want to like Eva, but it’s hard work to even try. I love that she made a pineapple upside down cake in a cast iron skillet. Is she from the south? Kandi doesn’t seem to be into Shamari. That makes two of us. Shamari verifies that Porsha’s giant ass is real and she’s had it since they went to high school together. I still say she has made it bigger since she has been on the show.
It’s time to play pass the peach, a game that went on behind the scenes with Shamari and Tanya and a couple of others throughout the filming season. In this version, you pass the peach and have to answer a question. Production makes sure the questions are super messy.
Marlo says that in the past Porsha was the biggest liar but currently that title goes to Eva. Eva is not having this. Then Marlo calls her basic. Somehow this veers off course to Eva’s treatment of Shamea. Then Cynthia confronts Eva about saying that Cynthia paid will to date her. Kandi joins in on the trash Eva train regarding Shamea. Eva seems to be the one that will be ostracized this season. This suits me just fine.
Kandi says Porsha is the freakiest in bed but tries to keep it a secret. Kandi says that Porsha does backdoor and her freak number is a ten. Then Shamari admits she has been in an open relationship. Nene seems very interested in this. Kandi says she is not into open relationships. I think she and Todd both have to be present for their kinky times.
Next week: Things about Dennis continue to come out. Eva struggles with wedding plans. Gregg’s cancer is back.
Tanya is that bitch and should’ve held a peach this season.
Eva should’ve got that friend contract that bravo offered Kenya because something ain’t clicking.
I like Shamari, she’s putting it all out there and making no apologies.
How is Cynthia getting by each season throwing parties and being oh so boring 😂
Marlo can go back to old mans bed that she got out of because…
The get together was cute though, I just hope these episodes pick up because them demoting Tanya and going with these storylines that they are was just wrong.
😂 I totally agree with you on Eva, Marlo, and Cynthia.
I miss Kenya and Marlo’s pant button looked like it was about to pop. How in God’s holy name could they pick Shemari over Kenya?
This was a decent episode…Shamari might be what the season needs after all. Why didn’t Tanya work out?
Go to the black Bar, click RHOA and get caught up.
Dennis’ mama was giving him glances at the dinner table…like…boy, what you up to this time ?
Is it just me or did anyone notice when Dennis,Porsha and his mother were at the table,she said so y’all are in love or whatever when he responded he told Porsha he was in love with her from the first night she had her hand on her head and shot him the bird.
I didn’t see that! 🤣
I had to rewind it to be sure ,but she did unintentionally or intentionally I have no clue.😊
I just can’t with Kandi, she came on this show talking about “Flying Above” when in fact she’s in the mud! Going on and on about Porsha’s freak number sounds more like she HAS been with Porsha and not just “heard”! Cynthia comes off as insecure and needy, if a man called me 8 or 9 times a day, I would run for the hills, that’s just too much. Even when she calls herself shading Eva saying how she looks and doesn’t have to pay a man was pathetic, she’s boring AF and most men that are real men are interested in more than looks. At 51 she should know this! I like Shamari, her MIL wasn’t ready for the TMI and her facial expressions were hilarious, although she didn’t flinch about those cake prices which surprised me. Porsha seems genuinely happy and for that I’m happy for her and hope the rest of her pregnancy is smooth. Dennis’ mom seemed totally uncouth, how any person could accept a gift on camera and behave the way she did is beyond me? That was tacky and seemed like a formality on his part because he’s going to do what he chooses. At least Porsha met her (possible) MIL, just saying!
Totally agree regarding Kandi. All she does is dig up dirt and let her Kandi Click discuss the dirt for camera time. Then the gross back door comments. Always down and dirty and muddy. Sickening.
I like Porsha, too and am happy for her. Kandi can’t be happy for anyone else. She’s a narcissist.
And she’s ugly and her clothes are too small and I don’t like her. LOL.
Don’t miss Kenya one little bit, either.
Porsha brought up the back door comments by claiming shes not a complete freak because she doesnt engage in back door action. Kandi just pointed out that once again Porsha was lying and had admitted to back door action previously.
YES, YES and YESSSSSS! Everything in your post was spot on! lol
Thanks for recapping this episode TT. It was too painfully boring to fully watch each scene. Except the last one…Oh boy Shamari is messy as hell. I don’t care for her. How many times is she going to mention that Ronnie is famous and a legend because of New Edition??? Ssshhh, we already know who he is. I loved Kandi’s comment she snuck in about how be careful or Ronnie will come here and give you some singing advice or whatever she said. Hilarious 🙂
I would love to have Tanya there and send away Marlo. And of course Kenya back in place of Shamari.
I don’t care for Eva either. She is really feeling herself and she can take several seats.
The scene I didn’t understand was when Nene was Introducing Marlo to Tanya. We’re they all together at the Anita Baker concert earlier in the year where they struck a pose in the lobby. Maybe my timeline is off but I found that odd
Same here, they were all hanging out before filming really kicked off, so I have no clue what that look was about.
I enjoyed this episode. I also thought it was odd that Dennis’s mom didn’t thank her for the gift or if she did, it was cut. I can’t decide who is going to be the bigger handful. Porsha or his Mama!
Guess I’ll be comment #15.
Thanks TT for your hardwork over the years. I’ll continue to support this site even if I don’t watch HWs. Maybe I’ll actually watch some of the other shows you recommend and recap.
I really am enjoying Porsha. Some say she is acting childish, but I say she is acting like a woman infatuated with a man. I told my hubby while we were dating there has to come a point where we have to stop trying to impress each other and be ourselves, for better or for worse. Luckily, 20yrs later it turned out to be the better for us. Soon the real work of a relationship will start and then the proof will be in the pudding, but right now she makes me smile.
