Oh YAY? It’s time for another RHOP Recap for part two of an inexplicable four part reunion. The only thing I am really interested in is part four where Nicki Minaj shows up to read everyone for filth. I’m hoping she shows up at the end of part three but I’m not optimistic about that.
Candiace Tries and Fails To Defend Her Ghetto Behavior
So tonight we start with Candiace and Mia going at it for Candiace saying “Your mama is low budget.” Personally, I feel like this is a whole lot of drama over nothing Candiace’s reckless mouth has said way more terrible things than a “yo mama” joke. But I do understand Mia being offended. I can talk about my mama all I want to, but YOU cannot. Mia tells Candiace to watch her motherfucking back. Mia tells Andy that Candiace’s ass kicking is well over do and she the one to do it. I’m rather anti violence myself, but I am all for someone finally giving Candiace the ass whooping she keeps on begging for. Again, don’t come for my mama.

We get a montage of Candiace’s reckless mouth. Wow Mia actually wears a size twelve shoe. That will hurt when she finally sticks it up Candiace’s asshole. Here in the south we all have big feet and most of us aren’t into wearing shoes unless we have to. lol. That’s why it is fun to go shoe shopping in the north. When I went to Seattle, every shoe size nine and above was fully available and mostly on clearance. It’s a region difference in climate. Yankees have smaller feet than us Southern girls. Again, the better to kick your ass with. Lol. You go Mia. Candiace tries to defend her constant body shaming. Andy keeps coming for Candiace’s behavior. And none of the other housewives defend her.
Andy Comes For Mia
Andy says that Mia has become a social media disaster. She blames her social media manager. That is bullshit. I don’t follow her on Twitter and have missed all of this. She apparently has come hard for Candiace, which I could care less about. But, then Askale says that Mia has posted a lot of mean tweets about Askale. That makes no sense at all. All Askale does is sit there and look pretty and has had no significant issues with anyone. Then, the break for a one hour lunch break. Wendy goes to check on Candiace. Is that Mia’s nipple fully exposed and hanging out of her dress?

After lunch, it’s on to Karen and Gizelle’s relationship. Or lack thereof. They both have trashed each other over the season. Wendy also gets into it with Gizelle for saying horrible thing about her family. They still have some pent up anger but eventually they work things out. Gizelle cries for what is apparently the first time she has done that on TV. She was talking about how kind that Karen was to her kids at the Reasonably Shady party. These two hug it out and are ready to move forward. YAY! That makes me happy!
Candiace Is A Sad Excuse For A Human
It’s time to move on to Ashley and way too much pregnancy talk. She talks about Michael wanting to do movies. The fans think he wants to do porn. Ashley doesn’t confirm or deny that. She also has her mojo back sexually. Gizelle asks if that means they will be including other ladies. Gizelle said it as a dig, but Ashley responds with, “I’m not ruling that out.” I wish these people would worry less about where Ashley is getting her itch scratch and with whom and focus on their own frigidity. Candiace tries to defend body shaming Ashley’s postpartum body.

Candiace wants to deflect her behavior with colorism? How does that work? Candiace isn’t much darker than Ashley. All of them seem light-skinned to me except for Wendy who is a bit darker than the others. This is ridiculous. Candiace is crying for no reason other than to do her triangle tissue thing. I guess that Candiace is crying because Ashley gave a statement in support of Monique. Everyone should have given a statement in support of Monique but Ashley was the only one brave enough to do it.
Why Is This Reunion Four Episodes!?
Wendy goes through all of her surgeries. But she cautions women to got to a board certified doctor who has experience. Wendy says that if the women had not attacked her about her surgery she would have liked to have a conversation with them. Everyone argues about the new Zen Wen after season one of being Professor Wendy. Wendy denies that she rehearses her reads. On to the one wick or three week candle war. This is just delaying me getting to RHOSLC. Let’s have some substance.

Now we have to talk about Wendy’s marriage and cheating rumors about Eddie. The women say that the rumors were on a blog that makes shit up. Hmm, was it the one that shall not be named here? That would be my guess. Wendy’s issue was that that blog is probably read by a few hundred people, but for the women on the show to bring it up on the show? Now “millions” lol of people have heard about it. Gizelle also said that she wondered if the plastic surgery was to overcompensate for the (fake) rumors. She ends with, “You had a whole tummy tuck, did you keep Jamal?” I love when Wen is not so Zen.
Next week the husbands appear. Dorothy contributes via phone. And Brown Dick is not pleased. Then, Andy Cohen goes to prep Nicki Minaj for the show.
I was really looking forward to Askale. From what we saw earlier this season, it seems like she has real substance and great style. Sadly, all that and “normal” behavior are NOT enough to keep viewers interested. I hate saying this, but it’s starting to feel like this may be the end of the road for Askale’s RHOP journey.
OTOH Candiace and Mia are such hot ass messes, so of course they’re probably locks for champagne flutes next season. Mia really is a walking and talking social media disaster, and that would be the #1 takeaway headline from this reunion if it weren’t for Candiace’s melodramatic bullshit fuckery. Honestly, I’m irritated by her “yo mama!” insults because they’re just so stale and lazy.
At least Gizelle and Karen finally got to a better place. I have my doubts on how long this truce will last, but at least they know how to keep the storylines moving and keep us watching this beautiful trainwreck of a show.
I LOVE! Askale! I hope we get to keep her. But frankly, she is too good for this cesspool.
Wendy , blogs are read! REALITY T.V. needed coins , stay relevant and ongoing drama is a rating booster.
No! Coming to you first isn’t an option .
Wendy , be strong and proud , do not dim your accomplishments on a program that is not equal to your education .
Love watching! It is scripted and the number goal is oh really !
I love with you guys! MIA AND CANDIANCE STOP THE noise, hurtful words.
Peace out
On WWHL Andy just confirmed the Nicki Minaj will show up at the very end of reunion episode 3, or as he 1st said episode 4
It’s probably wishful thinking, but I wish they would not bring Candiace back. I’m tuning out if they do. It’s like this crazy delusional little bitch thinks she is the queen of shade and can do and say whatever she wants. Yes, I’d like to see Mia put that size 12 up her ass. This bitch has got to learn one day she can’t keep dishing such vile shit and not expect repercussions.
Unfortunately, Bravo will keep Candiace bc she can be controversial with that garbage can mouth of hers. She thinks she can say whatever she wants and it’s ok bc she didn’t lift her hands to fight. That shows her immaturity right there – she doesn’t realize there are consequences for everything she says and does. And the moment she faces criticism, she turns on the tears.
I would have loved to see Mia trample her like a damn Clydesdale horse. The yo momma line was weak and a last resort when you have nothing else to read on. I was more offended how many times she called Mia a ho and the way in which she behaved. If you notice, the more Mia ignored and made fun of Candiace calling G a pimp, the angrier Candiace became and tore up that counter.
If anyone should go it’s Wendy.She hasn’t had one Zen moment all season that didn’t involve her rubbing her boobs. And all of her reads. have been rehearsed, that why she can’t just answer a question. She has to get the line out before she forgets it. I didn’t notice the look she gave Grace, but all Grace’s friends did. And even after they showed it Wendy still called it a lie. She is so stuck on herself it’s ridiculous. She reprimanded Robin for using the word loose, but doesn’t. see where anything she said or did was inappropriate. This chick needs a wake up call. Unfortunately the other ladies are afraid to give it to her.

I agree with your comments about Wendy and Candiace.
I didn’t like Wendy on her first season appearance and now, she’s definitely not Zen Wen… I dislike her even more. She’s trying too hard to be relevant and OMG, incredibly RUDE!
As for Candiace (I’m sure that I’m in the minority here), she has absolutely no redeeming qualities. She’s mean-spirited, a perpetual Victim and no willingness to accept responsibility for her actions or to even acknowledge when she’s wrong….
Wendy continues to be nasty and it’s as stale as a 1984 twinkie. SHE is the one who actually gave the rumor wings by acting such a damn fool the entire season. The whole thing would have died down if she had said something like “thanks for telling me, but my husband and I are fine, and kept it moving. Her demeanor is sour an it permeates the entire show and definitely this reunion. There IS no colorism on RHOP. If the brown girls are the ones acting up and showing their arses the most, that’s not colorism….that’s just poor home training and a lack of decorum. I would rather they lose Wendy and make Candiace go to therapy and film portions of it. THAT would be interesting, Lastly, shouldn’t Wendy’s implants be looking a little more natural by now and not be so hard and artificial looking? Is she SURE her plastic surgeon was board certified?
You are spot on! Love the Twinkie analogy! I would not mind a lift and just a little fuller myself (mine look like flat tires), but I kept looking at hers tonight thinking that’s just not an attractive look. They look like the saline is about to start spewing. Do they even use saline anymore? Lol
Also, yes I’d love to see Candiace get counseling. She is too vicious to be entertaining to watch. It’s a bad look for Bravo, in my opinion, to keep this girl on there constantly trying to provoke. She takes it too far.
Totally agree with @Cecelia and @MelG.
Wendy got a taste of those Bravo checks and will do anything to keep them. I’m not a fan of season 1 Wendy nor of season 2 Wendy. She needs to pick a persona and stick with it. I don’t care what she said. Her reads sound rehearsed.
I’m glad Ashley called out the cries of colorism and I feel more time should have been spent discussing that. If someone is acting an ass, they should be called out. I don’t think colorism exists bt the women on the show. As Ashley said it seems to be an external factor people have introduced.
Candiace needs real and intense therapy. Not that popcorn therapy she had last season. She needs some type of psychological regression therapy (yes, I made that up, LOL) that takes her back to childhood to fix whatever the hell messed her up. She’s like an abused Chihuahua that keeps biting people for no reason.
Lastly, I thought the same thing about Wendy’s breasts. Usually after a year, they say your implants drop and maybe soften a bit. Hers look hard and painful.
An abused chihuahua 🤣🤣🤣, that’s hilarious, I can’t stand her. Wished someone would popped her already
This episode was better than the first one. I like that the ladies are trying to show/talk to Candice what she is doing wrong to fix herself but of course doesn’t listen. I’m a little confused with the colorism conversation. How is Candiace going to throw the colorist allegations towards Ashley but then doesn’t remember using the slave term. I understand those are two different topics but don’t try to say one thing is wrong to another person when what your doing isn’t any better. Ashley really held her own with Candiace and you can tell it bothered her. Wendy is quick to ask Ashley to explain herself but isn’t quick to explain to her friend Candiace what she does wrong. Wendy is really quiet when it came to that slave comment. Overall good episode
best line on this episode was “Y’all brought her all the way over here to the reunion for these 2 little sentences?” – Mia on Askale
Honestly, I don’t get how anyone on this show could be accusing anyone of colorism unless it is Wendy who is Nigerian. there isn’t two shades of difference between the rest of them. Is it just me? Am I missing something? To me everyone else is “light skinned.” I think it is just because Ashley is half white and that is what Candiace wants to jab her about. That is a whole different thing that some black people take issue with. But even being mixed, Ashley and Candiace have basically the same skin tone, AND FOREHEAD SIZE. lol.
I agree about the colorism. Candiace is using it as a convenient excuse to justify the backlash she receives and to not take accountability for her behavior. Also, does Candiace not realize that her husband is white? If they have kids won’t they be like Ashley?? Biracial? How will that work? Or will she treat her kids like Dorothy treats her? Hmmmmm…..
Ashley and Candiace are not even close in color and skin tone. I’m sure they discussed the colorism a little more than what we saw. I noted something. Ashley said she didn’t see colorism on the show. Just because she doesn’t see colorism doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Her argument is similar to those who don’t believe racism exists. I’m also in the minority because Candiace had significant points and examples when describing how almost everyone had body shamed through the year and in previous years and everyone else said she was wrong and their actions were different. Ashley was the only one who admitted that she had body shamed Charisse. Yes she goes far and lands verbal blows. I think her yelling may be what gets to people because she can be strident. This silly “yo mama” stuff is so much less offensive than being called a “hot box” and a “broken whore”. I really wouldn’t want it implied that I had an STD. It had to be far more damaging to Gizelle’s kids to hear Kare call their mother a whore on tv and imply that their mother had an STD.
When did Wendy and Candiace become friends? Did I miss that this season? Is it because no one else likes either of them? Wendy may have 4 degrees, but she is dumb when it comes to etiquette and owning when she is wrong. Plus, why does she interrupt everyone? Does she still do the news? If so, does she interrupt them and wear clothes showing too much boob? Or a dress she can’t sit down in?
Candiace is so narcissistic that she can’t listen to her mother, husband, or the ladies when they are trying to help her and give her advice. Karen and Gizelle were trying to help her and she was so rude to them. Candiace even threw shade at Andy this week in a tweet. She needs to go away. She is disrespecting her bravo paychecks. She is bringing down the show. She makes it hard to watch and it isn’t entertaining.
I have no idea when them became besties. It surprised me too! With their personalities, this friendship/alliance won’t last long.
In real life Candyass would have a knot on her forehead. I don’t condone violence, but she’s clearly hiding behind security on the set and knowing cast members don’t want lawsuits.…
Then again, in real life I don’t know a group of women who actually interact like this after the age of 18, so there’s that…
Ashley is mother eff stunning. How did I miss that? She wasn’t always pregnant was she? And yes a pregnant belly is beautiful, but it would never fit inside her glamorous gown.
The audacity of Candiace to bring up colorism when she is on tape calling Ashley a slave and a milkmaid. But that is hopelessly immature Candiace. Wendy fanning the flames of colorism is more alarming to me. She basically fired a shot into the air warning the cast that if they come for her she will call them racist, which is a real threat thanks to 2021 twitter.
I don’t mind Wendy turning over every stone looking for a feud to keep her relevant for another season, but this is playing with fire. There was plenty of good drama this season between many people, most of the time neither side being right or wrong, but to put up this wall just to get an edge in these petty disagreements on a housewives show is a dangerous tactic that can quickly turn things sour.
On different note it is interesting how we went from Nene calling Claudia a “halfbreed”, to the green eyed bandits shaming Katie for calling herself biracial, to now this. Tides keep changing.
The statement about having dry a** hair was a colorist statement, she should have just apologized and move on. Only the 2 darkest cast member can clearly see that. Im not that dark and i was offended by it, its along the line of calling 4c hair nappy
OMG. Stop making everything about race! THIS IS AN ALL BLACK CAST! WHITE PEOPLE ALSO HAVE DRY HAIR! Candiace is barely a shade darker than Ashley. STOP BEING SO DIVISIVE. There is no colorism on this show. Light skinned people do not get to cry colorism! If anyone had a leg to stand on in that fight it is WENDY who is literally the only dark skinned woman on the show. And She came on to replace Monique who was also dark skinned. COINCEDENCE? I think not Dry hair, dry skin whatever is not a colorist statement. Sit DOWN.
Candiace is more than a shade darker than Ashley. Look at them side by side. It isn’t even close. Lighting does play into how color shows up especially at reunions. Look at Candiace when she was filming the video and Ashley when she is in anything, especially in that picture with her children. They are markedly different skin tones. Go back to the season with the butter knife incident. Or when they were at dinner this year and Candiace said she was “wide bodied”. They are clearly differently colored. Colorism can exist amongst black peoples. It happens all the time. Ask Afro-Latinas. The movie “School Daze” is another example. Why is it impossible/improbable for colorism to be present with this cast?
@Shannon
School them!
Ashley has very dry hair herself.
