Tonight on Real Housewives of Atlanta, Porsha Williams gets her proposal and Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker hash out the details of the surrogate situation. Eva Marcille also has a wedding meltdown. This season is all about weddings and babies. Sadly, there is one baby that we are missing out on.
We start off with Eva Marcille and her husband Michael Sterling picking out his tux for the wedding. Later, Eva and Michael meet with the DJ for the wedding to discuss the playlist. They have very different musical tastes. They are knocking things off the checklist with only three weeks to the wedding.
Later, Eva lets us know she plans on having three wedding dresses. Unfortunately, there was some sort of mishap with the material for her reception dress so she is scrambling for a replacement at the last minute.
Kandi BurrussWe check in with Kandi and Todd who are working on getting OLG Restaurant 2 ready to open. Kandi is also getting ready for her burlesque show. Then they start talking about surrogate. Todd has some weird reservations. He is struggling with seeing the surrogate pregnant. He doesn’t seem to know how he is supposed to interact with a surrogate. Should he touch her belly? Can he just not see her at all and just show up at the hospital to pick up the baby? It’s all foreign territory for him.
Later, Todd and Kandi go to meet with Dr. Jackie to meet the surrogate. Not only is Shadina willing to have her name out there,she willing to be filmed. Kandi gets emotional. Kandi had too eggs implanted with Ace and only one took. She wants to implant two embryos in the surrogate. Shadina seems like a great surrogate. Kandi and Todd agree. Kandi is going to contact her attorney about setting up the contract.
Nene LeakesIt is the day of Gregg Leakes surgery. He is getting his colostomy bag removed. On the way to the hospital, Nene tells Gregg that she is not going to stay for his surgery. Basically, she is his Uber driver and while he is in surgery she will be “packing up SWAGG” and you know, doing stuff. I saw an Instastory from Nene for one of Greg’s surgeries and he basically begs her to stay and she refuses. It was sad and I can’t imagine why that intimate moment needed to be on Instagram.
Nene makes it all about herself both in the car and in her talking head. She tells us that she and Gregg were not in a good place before he got diagnosed because he was just so grouchy. Um, probably because he had cancer? In the car she whines to Gregg that she is just dealing with so much. You know, unlike Gregg, who has cancer. Nene says she loves Gregg and he has always been her rock but now (that she has to be his rock) she is unhappy and not sure she wants to stay married to him. She’s just a nasty, horrible person. We have always know this but I for one thought she might find a few shreds of decency to be there for the man who has been “her rock” for years. Isn’t she supposed to be “the glue”?

Nene Leakes Invites Cynthia Bailey and Marlo Hampton Over For Cocktails
Two days later, Gregg has still not been released from the hospital. Nene says he is in tough shape and the healing process is long. So she invited Cynthia Bailey over to her place. Because, why stay with your husband who is doing poorly? She’s not the one with cancer. Cynthia saw Gregg right after his surgery. Marlo Hampton arrives to join the party. Marlo was also at the hospital with Cynthia. These three drink wine and eat and gossip outside. I am tired of recapping Nene’s piss poor attitude. Cynthia says in her talking head that Nene could be a big more sensitive.
Porsha WilliamsPorsha convinces Dennis to sell his apartment downtown apartment and move out to Duluth with her. Does he even own that apartment? It is a really cute apartment but I seem to recall a discussion here about it being a rental.
Later, Porsha and Dennis double date with Ron and Shamari. At what point do couples become too old to have a double date riding go-carts? Next, Porsha and Shamari play pool while the menfolk talk. Dennis tells Ron he is proposing to Porsha on Friday. It’s on the call sheet and everything.
Next, we find Porsha getting ready to get on a helicopter and fly to a “charity event.” “She has no idea” that Dennis is proposing. She arrives at the location to find the floor covered in rose petals and Lil Mo there singing her song, which is apparently about getting married and having kids. Dennis proposes and then, out comes the photographer for People Magazine to take the photos for their article! She almost wipes out on the rose petals. Porsha said yes!
Next time, on RHOA, it’s time for Kandi’s Dungeon Party!, Eva pretends like Bravo isn’t paying for her wedding, Nene has a meltdown on Marlo and then attacks a cameraman.
This was probably one of the best episodes of the entire season. I’m so happy for Porsha and wish her and Dennis nothing but the best. Me and my girlfriends (All in our 20’s) all watched tonight’s episode and really loved watching Porsha’s,Shamari, Eva and Kandi’s scenes.
We couldn’t bare to watch Nene scenes and turned to the all star game instead. I’m so glad Cynthia called her out on what we all have been saying and thinking and happy Marlo does it again next week.
One month after my son was killed we got the news my husband had to have quadruple heart surgery. I only left his side long enough to come home and check on the dogs. What was I thinking? My girlfriends never came over for cocktails. Nene really takes the cake on selfishness.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine going through that and then nursing your husband through a serious surgery.
Thank you. I wasn’t looking for sympathy. Just really hard to watch Nene be so selfish when her husband needs her.
Very sorry for your loss Jaded.🙏 My husband underwent several major surgeries due to congenital heart disease in his 30s & 40s. We thought the triple bypass & valve replacement were successful, but apparently not because he died a few years later. Like you, I only left the hospital when I had to, but still wish I had 1 more hour with him. Nene’s behavior is disgusting & upsetting to watch. I fear Gregg is not long for this world & needs all of the support he can get! She will rue the day she decided RHOA & errands were more important than time with her husband. I hope his kids/family step in once they see how abominably she treats him on the show.
Sadly, Nene may never rule the day she wasn’t there for Greg. She may not have that capability.
I’m sorry for your loss. It’s a terrible thing losing those we love. We never get over it.
Thanks for the kind words Jaded – stay strong! You’re probably right about Nene though. She’s such a narcissist she’s incapable of considering the feelings of others. Karma’s a bitch though!
Jaded, I’m so sorry to hear about your son.
Thank you Chris.
Jaded, what a strong compassionate woman you are! So sorry for the loss of your son.
Thank you. Nene really disgusted me this episode.
Nene should trend lightly… shes has a big diva ego… but thats her life
Nene is the absolute worst. Just so selfish and rude. I’d have trouble dropping off a stranger to be alone for surgery, but my husband who is my so called rock? No fucking way. I’ve been at the hospital for every single one of my Grandma’s surgeries in my adult life, and I’m lucky she’s the only one I know who’s needed them.
Whether Gregg makes it through or not, NeNe may need to find another rock when things cycle around with her on the bottom again. Bitch is too gentle of a word for her. So is cunt. I guess gash will have to do. Good thing she isn’t selling stock in her “glue” because it sure has no sticking power. I hope her wig flies off.
“and then, out comes the photographer for People Magazine”…LMAOOOOO!!!
I’m sure it was a completely spontaneous situation and a photographer just happened to be walking by the building where Porsha happened to be getting engaged.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine going through that and then nursing your husband through a serious surgery.
Sorry- This was in response to Jaded’s comment
Some moments in life you just don’t recover from. The main thing is I just couldn’t imagine treating my husband the way Nene did Greg. Even in my grief.
I have never been so happy with an episode in my life — I actually cried for Porsha – what a great ending – I love her and her hotdog king
I apologize in advance but WHAT THE FUCK??? “Im going to drop you off for surgery and then im going to run some errands.” Just got home, flipped this on and this is THE FIRST LINE I HEAR. Going cableless for 2 weeks starting, well whenever they turn it off. Thought it was going to be yesterday. My son thinks it will be good for me, maybe I’ll actually listen to music and do shit. Omg, let me back this shit up and find out what fresh hell Bravo has in store for us. I’ll be back!!
I just can’t w/Nene. I recently had a section of colon removed and was fortunate enough not to have a colostomy bag…I just had the one resection surgery. The surgeon prepared me that it is not an easy surgery. There are risks involved, leakage being a huge risk. A family friend had the same surgery shortly after mine and could not be reconnected at the time because his surgeon was worried he would leak. So, he has the colostomy bag & is waiting to be reconnected. It’s something I’m glad to have behind me and pray I don’t go through again. I would have divorced my husband had he not stayed during my surgery or had not been there with me in the hospital the days that followed. Nene is a BITCH!!!!
I’m glad your surgery went well Mel. My BIL just had what seems to be a very similar surgery. My sis was there the entire time. Never left his side. He’s finally home and his being quite the handful but again, she’s there with him.
Hopefully after becoming a mother Porsha will mature. Not a fan, but wish her all the best. Dennis seems like he hides a lot of things, such as side women and the true details of his finances. Porsha isn’t very bright, and just from their interactions she seems like he saps all confidence from her. Hopefully in one or two seasons we won’t get the “I was so blinded by the idea of marriage and the pregnancy hormones” arc from Porsha as she separates from his shady ass. I miss Kenya!!!!!!! #whatcouldhavebeen
This show has hit it’s absolute LOW!
Butt plugs, nose picking & wiping it on a sleeve, then Nene complaining about Gregg being sick with Cancer, leaving him during his surgery, and wanting to leave him permanently because she wants whatever the hell???
SHORTY GOT LOW, LOW, LOW, LOW, LOW, LOW, LOW, LOW!
Wanted to add that Porshe’s proposal moment was epic! So happy for her & Denise & baby in the oven.
Next week we get to witness Kandi’s stripper show crap, meanwhile she’s trying to have a baby using a surrogate. Talk about yin and yang?
AND on WWHL did Kim say that Troy doesn’t cheat on her like Todd cheats on Kandi?
Did I hear that correctly?
TT cleared that up on her WWHL post.
Kim doesn’t share her husband. I thought Kim said something else.
Anyway, Eva’s baby boy is sooooooooo cute! Gorgeous baby.
Nene is rotten to the core. She is most likely showing the viewers her best behavior towards Gregg. My father was like Nene. When my mom had terminal cancer he blamed her for ruining his retirement.Special!
That proposal seemed so inauthentic. I didn’t find it romantic at all. I’ve seen real actors do a better job. Geesh
The proposal seemed very inauthentic and lacked romance. I’ve seen real actors do a better job.
Years ago my Mom had 3 surgeries in 3 days. My sister was stuck in Alabama, I am in NJ so she couldn’t be there but we stayed in constant contact. My brother, who lives in NJ, thankfully was not there for the 2nd day’s surgery. Day 1 he was an absolute mess and I was ready to take him OUT! 4 hours in a waiting room with him pacing and bugging the nice ladies who keep families up to date was enough for me to call for back up. His wife gave him errands around the area for day 2’s surgery. Day 3’s surgery, a quadruple by-pass, his wife came with him and even she couldn’t handle him. He was a mess. Our Dad died of a heart attack so the idea of Mom having heart surgeries was just too much for him. The poor lil ole ladies got asked every 5 minutes for updates. He paced, he cried, he shook, he ranted..I wanted to give him a tranquilizer. All that being said, even when my sibling couldn’t or shouldn’t be there, I was there every minute keeping them both in the loop and Mom was never alone. Nene needs to get her head out her arse.
@ Nanette: “gash” is the perfect word to describe nene leakes. thank-you for thinking of it!
gregg should have stayed gone when they broke up. i feel so sorry for him, but it is good to know that others are rallying around him to fill up the empty space left by his gash wife. nene leaving him while he’s still sick may be the best thing for him. i can’t imagine him healing and getting better while she sluts and blings and “glues” her way through her fabulous life still riding on her trump money and “i was on glee, bitches!”
she’s such a terrible person that it’s going to feel really good to see how far down she falls when RHOA is a distant memory.
take the gold turban with you when you go, nene…it’ll look fabulous when you’re hostessing at toppers showbar back in athens, ga because you’re too bougieshadybitchyevil for gold club atlanta now.
Agree with all you said! I don’t usually wish people bad fortune, but Nene’s a truly despicable human being. I PRAY that Gregg recovers & leaves her ass & she ends up in a dive bar like that after losing everything! And that TMZ or some other tabloid is around to capture it! Lol.
When Porsha said “I forgot to put on panties” the only thing I could think about was that she’s begging for a yeast infection with that spandex jumper. I also appreciate curves but good lord her ass has become massive. That aside, I’m happy for her but there’s something about Dennis that I find unsettling. I don’t trust him.
I understand caregiver fatigue but nene has some bad karma coming her way. Who the fuck leaves the hospital when their significant other is in surgery??? In my opinion her true colors are showing this season and she’s proving what a disgusting person she is.
I love kandi and Todd. You can tell they actually like each and enjoy being around each other (which is more than I can say about a lot of other housewives and their SOs). And who cares if they engage(d) in threesomes…what they do is their business and if it works for them so be it.
Happy for Porsha. I am going to cut Nene a little slack, because care giving is not easy and can cause emotional turmoil. For that reason alone, it is best to hire a care giver to come in and help. Now, is it me or does it feel like this is the longest season ever? I am not a faithful watcher of RHOA anymore and can’t get 20 mins in before I am bored. All into, MDL, Top chef, RHOBH, anticipating RHONY and the Mexican Dynasty. I Love and Marriage on OWN. If RHOA is a lot better next season, I probably get back on board.
NeNe’s truest, most horrible self is being exposed this season. She can’t contain her snark when her other castmates are happy. With Gregg she shows irritation, dismissal, temper tantrums and rage. The way she carelessly drops Gregg off at the hospital for his surgery, then proceeded to party with Cynthia and Marlo while discussing how he is having a hard time with recovery was heartless. She’s such an ugly person. I would never support anything she is involved in after witnessing her atrocious behavior.
I think it would be a good idea for Nene to speak with Jill Zarin, Dorinda Medley, and Carol Radziwell. By speaking to them she may come to understand others have been through what she is experienci ng. I think this process would help her if she is willing to listen and learn.
I think she is really scared and lacking in maturity and coping skills.
Nene…Ugh! I simply couldn’t watch after a while. So heartless. Turns my stomach. She can’t even get sympathy from her two closest t.v. friends and allies, Cynthia and Marlo. Ratchet person.
Team Greg! NeNe said that Greg is grouchy. I’d be grouchy too if I had cancer and had to poop in a bag. NeNe said she has needs, I guess she means an assistant. Greg waited on her hand and foot and now he can’t. She went half way across the country while her husband is home sick, she runs errands while he is having surgery and he feels the need to send her flowers and leave her notes of love and gratitude. Greg I hope you are cancer free soon and I don’t only mean your illness.
Greg is too good for Nene. He is such a good wordsmith! The note with the flowers was beautiful. Nene is self centred, selfish, believes her own press and because of this I think she’s freaking out in the most horrible way. Greg should find a pretty nurse who appreciates his eloquence with words.
Having cancer doesn’t make someone a good person. He’s always been a scammer just like Nene and is not a good person at all. He kind of deserves Nene.
TT- Good point about Greg. I don’t know anything about Greg except for what I’ve seen on the show but being with NeNe for so long he probably doesn’t have clean hands.
