I’m not sure I am ready for a RHOP Recap! I am quite sure I don’t remember any of RHOP’s names! But I shall try my best! As it turns out, RHOP didn’t tape due to Game of Thrones and American Idol! So It’s going to have to wait until tomorrow.
So, it’s tomorrow and there have already been three bizarre fires to put out with regard to the site. I am not sleeping well. I’m not following my Lentil Season Part Two plan very well. I fell in the yard this weekend and smashed my knee. And I don’t remember much about these people because of the Old Timers early onset. And yet, I shall power through this as best as I can.

This season trailer is so over the top outrageous. I followed the story about Michael Darby and it was a whole lot of nothing. But of course the media didn’t cover that. For that reason alone I will be riding hard for Ashley this year. So, Prepare yourself. Oh and Candiace is a horrible person.
Gizelle
Now that filming has started, Gizelle has decided to go to counseling with Sherman. She says it is because the girls love him so much. I think it’s for the cameras. I do not understand Sherman and Gizelle together at all.
Also because of filming, someone has to be Karen Huger’s friend. Gizelle has apparently drawn the short straw. Apparently, this truce is scheduled to go down via some homemade cookies.
Ashley
Okay, if I am going to ride hard for Ashley this season, I need to do it with less sexual interaction with Michael. Especially first thing in the morning. Sadly, this not realistic because Ashley is on a mission to get pregnant. Production needs to stop putting the unproven charges that were thrown out by prosecutors out there. That was a hit job by a Truly Original employee.
Karen
Oh for Pete’s sake. Are we still pretending Karen is living in this house? I thought that was fully addressed last season. Every door is closed to the house except the room Karen is in. There is a Chanel blanket on a sofa and two pairs of shoes creatively displayed in the closet. Give me a break.
Matt, AKA the white guy, has arrived with some sort of promotional bag. There is a pitcher of lemonade at the ready. Karen is genuinely grieving the death of both of her parents in the same year. That has to be very difficult.
The scene is apparently for Gizelle to show up with her homemade cookies as a peace-offering. This could not be more staged. Karen wants apologies from everyone. Eventually, Gizelle is allowed to drop off the cookies to Karen. So contact was made. But the entire scene was just ridiculous.
Monique
I don’t remember much about Monique. Is she the one that got drunk and drove into a tree? She’s very pregnant and very crabby at the moment. Chris thinks Monique needs to apologize to Gizelle for talking about some alleged arrest of Sherman for prostitution in the park. Most of this story doesn’t ring a bell for me at all even with all the much-needed flashbacks.
Robyn
Robyn really wants you to know that she and Juan are having the sex. Lots and lots of the sex. They may even have it on camera right now.
Candiace
I want to eat at Chris’s restaurant. I’m starving. She is inviting her half-brother Michael to the wedding. Michael is a child that was born as the result of her father’s infidelity. Candiace’s mama is not going to like this at all. Chris is such a sane and kind guy. Why is he with Candiace?
Karen stops by Candiace’s house for the first time ever. She’s got to film with someone. She mocks the dead bonsai tree that Ashley gave Candiace at her engagement party. I think we all knew that would happy. Candiace is not the type to care for or nurture other living things. Then they talk about Candiace’s brother. Candiace is struggling to reconcile her relationship with her mother and her relationship with her brother.

Later, at Candiace’s house, Candiace and her mother arguing over how to cook eggs. Then she tells her mother that she has invited her brother to the wedding. It didn’t go well. Candiace needs to be loyal to the woman bought her all her pageant dresses! How does she not get this!? Candiace cries in the kitchen talking to her mother. Candiace cries weeks later retelling the story in her talking head. Her mama says those crocodile tears don’t mean anything.
Next week on RHOP, it’s time for Candiace’s wedding and it has all the drama of a Bravo wedding. Plus someone has betrayed Gizelle. Gizelle comes for Monique at the wedding. See you next week for another RHOP Recap!
Karen’s mole is gone!
Good catch! Wasn’t she proud of her beauty mark?
Supposedly yes! Ha!!
maybe the mole took a bad turn…
Maybe it was in a flashback scene but I totally remember being grossed out by it today. I could have sworn it was when she was at Candiace’s house.
It was there.
Yes, it was there — I kept wondering why she wouldn’t have had it removed when she had her surgery.
Yeah it was totally there. I don’t understand people actually NOT seeing it. I was having flashbacks to the movie She-Devil the whole time hahah.
Finally, my favorite Bravo show is back! I love me some RHOP. And while I’ve already been disturbed by the prominence of the charges against Michael that where quickly dropped, I’m hoping he and Ashley will have the opportunity to clap back at that ridiculousness this season.
As for Karen, I really do feel for her. It’s not easy losing both parents within a year of each other. She’s clearly going through a lot, so I get her urge to lash out. Still, I’m anxious about her leading the charge against Ashley this season over Michael-gate.
Whatever happens next, we’re all in for a wild ride this season.
I had planned to not begin watching this HW show. Reading the recaps is plenty. But seeing that it is y
YOUR favorite, I will give it a shot. If I get hooked, I will blame you. ?
I think the mole is still there, just considerably lighter.
she clearly never lived there. the house was always empty and is listed on zillow completly empty right now as well.
I torture myself with this show every season. To me it is the most contrived and scripted of all the housewives shows. And they are all so petty. Monique is by far the best at acting natural. The rest of them are just so annoying. Karen is the worst. Gizelle is not much better.
Ashley and her husband, please let’s skip the baby making stuff on camera. Gross!
Candiace’s Mom is terrible. A perfect example of the therapist that needs therapy.
All the best for your knee! Keep safe and thank you for recapping the messiness that is RHW. Always use your recaps as a taster for whether I should tune in or not ?
I can’t unsee the grotesque scene between Michael and Ashley. I can’t believe that Karen is still pretending to live in that home. You know it’s going to come out and they will come for her about it the reunion. I’m happy to see Robyn and Juan back together. I think their divorce was more of a financial decision and they have turned the corner and have straighten things out so good for them.
Thanks for the recap and I hope your knee gets better soon!
Regarding Karen going in so hard on the “Darcy Doll” – Ashley stayed in Karen’s business always trying to make her give her answers about some very invasive personal matters. Who does she think she is that anybody has to answer to her. She had enough issues with her own life to take care of minus the accusations against Michael! Karen ain’t got no life so she’s trying to latch onto something that’s gonna prove toxic. All of them need to focus more on their personal relationships with their families instead of worrying about each other’s status in life!! Just saying!
Are Robyn and Juan the couple in a Blind Item a while back?
Drinking Game! Every time Candiace uses that sad tissue triangle, take a shot. Take 2 if she uses it before she even says anything.
Don’t drink and drive.
I’m playing next week, blame you if I get alcohol poisoning
Yess.. I thought it was just me. It was annoying the hell out me. If we took shots everytime she dabbed, we will still be at the hospital getting our stomachs pumped
Take care of yourself!
Also I’m gonna need that baby to come out looking like Ashley, because…. Michael.
Ugh…Michael is gross and I do NOT need to imagine he and Ashley doing it. How is she into him?? He seems boring. It’s so frustrating seeing Candiace walk around eggshells around her mother; you can just feel her anxiety on screen. She clearly needs to cut the apron strings & financial ties away from mom.
Candace is too spoiled and bougie to give up those checks from Mama Bear.
Ashley’s tagline is about karma being on her side (or something to that affect) so I guess by mid or end of season, what Tamara revealed months ago about the charges being thrown out will air on the show AND hopefully the truth about Karen’s pretense to live in that house, Robin’s pretend relationship with Juan and Gizelle’s pretend relationship with Sherman will be exposed.
I like Monique’s family scenes and how Chris speaks truth to her while still having her back.
I’m happy to see a Cherise free season and looking forward to Krazy Katie
Candiace is annoying(especially the spelling of her name) but after seeing her mom’s performance, I give her some allowance. Her brother was conceived BEFORE her mother chose to marry her dad anyway and now 40 years later the mom still can’t be in the same room with the son? Typical example of the therapist who needs therapy.
Maybe Karen thinks she’s the black Cindy Crawford?
I can’t with these made up sex scenes. Please spare us!
Gizelle girls are growing into some lovely young ladies.
I’m tired or Robin any Juan.
Candice mom needs to get over it. That man had a baby while they were together. Prior to their marriage and getting pregnant. So when you still choose to marry and have a baby by the man all feelings should be absolved right. If not why get married and bring a child into your bitterness. Then they have been divorced for years and she is still bitter about a child who didn’t ask to be here.
It’s ridiculous! Candiace wants to have a relationship with her brother. There’s nothing wrong with that, and her desire to invite him is not unreasonable. It’s cruel to exclude him, especially since he didn’t do anything wrong and probably would have preferred to not have been born out of infidelity. This selfish cruel reaction has really caused me to question her mother’s character.
