eXiled

Exactly. This is a nice surprise because I was certain Wendy was attempting to distance herself from the education and sociopolitical sphere. I'm thrilled to learn I was wrong. I hope she continues to lead with her strong suit because it sets her apart in a good way.

eXiled lying in wait across the street from Betty's house, trying to get a peek.... On topic: Wendy's mom is a major reason behind her lack of identity. Wendy spent her life trying to live up to this monster's expectations, but Mama will never be satisfied.

You are a hater, ma'am. Don't act like you don't know where the howives get their top tier fashion. You're just jealous! Behold: Sonja by Sonja Morgan GnA Apparel SHE by Sheree I'm looking forward to Wendy's upcoming fashion line. It hasn't been mentioned yet, but y'all know it's coming when the doctor decides to rebrand/relaunch/redo her persona once more. She's determined to be anything but the academic talking head that set her apart from every other housewife in these franchises. Happy + Ness Designs would be perfect.

Even before I saw that poorly thrown-up website I knew their business was a joke. Who in the world wants to dress like Gizelle and/or Ashley? Both are good-looking ladies, but I'd never accuse either of them of being fashion forward. This is what happens when producer's pets are allowed to run the show from behind the scenes. GnA will never be held accountable like the others. These two will never allow their real lives to be filmed again. I don't believe Ashley is getting divorced. When I last watched early last year, Giz was pretending to date a younger man from another Bravo show. Has he been mentioned? Now that her daughters are leaving the nest and Robyn isn't there to hold her purse, she's lost. Hell, she can't even call Jamal to pretend to reconcile again. He's engaged.

I'm so thankful for small favors. I can't stand this woman. Always sitting in the corner, measuring everyone's words, ready to be triggered and anxious.

I knew Wendy would be leaving her university role after she purchased Happy and Ness and started dressing like an IG thot.

If we were allowed to have signatures, this would be mine. Loves it!

Or they could simply walk away. If they dislike a person so much that them standing nearby during a confrontation might cause a violent outburst, walking away would definitely be for the best. The attacker could lose a lot more than she bargained for if she pops the wrong one.

I always wonder about full-grown adults still living by "Talk Shit, Get Hit." That might work when you're fifteen and have very little to lose, but that life ain't as cute at 40. Any chick that old who would rather lead with a punch versus a nasty comment should be arrested. After the arrest, she should be sued. Unfortunately too many people have grown up fighting, so losing their dignity, their weave, and their press-on nails won't mean a thing. That means you'll have to go after her career, her home (if she owns one, since these types usually have very little to lose), and anything else she holds dear. Only then will she think twice before throwing hands. People laugh about black women Karen-ing in situations where they are attacked, but I'm too old now and definitely with the shits. And yep, my mouth is slick. Attack me and I'll have your ass arrested. I'll hire an investigator to hunt down every last asset you have. You'll be wondering if pulling my hair was worth it in the long run.

Watching for the first time in months to decide if this show will go back into my rotation. Except ... I tuned in about a half hour into the show, so I can only recap the last twenty-five minutes: - Gee, but I'd forgotten that HD is not RHOP's friend! The caked-on make-up was REALLY caking tonight. That's what I noticed the most as Ashley attempted to defend Sesame Street's actions. I'm gon leave the wigs alone. If I don't, I'll wind up typing a treatise on the various shades of blonde, as well as the versions of Indian remy, Brazilian, and synthetic strands the gals are rockin'. - The fashions were not fashioning. I'd really thought that these low-hanging-titty dresses would be out of style by now. Most 25 year old's can't carry them off well, IMO. More mature women -- even those with amazing bodies -- don't do much better. Just because you can wear something doesn't mean you should. [Rant] Why do so few women today know their correct bra size? I'm flabbergasted whenever I see women who make good money walking around in ill-fitting undergarments. A tape measure costs less than two dollars! Watch a Youtube video and get the girls sitting right! [/End Rant] - Green is Gizelle's color! Honorable mention to Mia who looked great in white. The colors work great with their skin tones. I still, however, side-eye the fashions/silhouettes. - Mia will hold on to her flute with the storyline about her upcoming divorce. She says she and Gordon may have stayed together had she not admitted that she married him for his money. So what, Gordon! You married a woman nearly young enough to be your granddaughter for what -- her deep intellect, love of life, and philanthropic endeavors? Or was it coz you like how that booty bounce?

- I don't understand why Garcelle and Dorit's awkward meeting was necessary. These two don't like each other. I've known it from Garcelle's first season. If I know it, they know it. They will never see eye to eye. I hope they retreat to their corners and keep it cute from now on. No need for this show to go the way of New York (which I'd stopped watching due to Dorinda's drunken belligerence rather than Ramona's repeated, off-putting tone-deafness.) - I like Denise, but she's giving major mental health vibes this season. MAJOR. Erika reacted as I knew she would. As I've said in the RHOP threads about Candiace: You can't come for someone and than get upset about how they respond. If you're dealing with a ho-wife armed with a quick and deadly tongue, best think long and hard about poking at that chick if you can't handle the barrage. - Kyle should allow Kathy to cut her off this time and never attempt to rebuild. Narcs and controllers will play push-pull if you let 'em. This would be the last time I allowed Little Kathy to push me. - I'm suspicious of Sutton's date. Don't know why. I wonder if we'll see more of him.

I think another thing many viewers are missing is this: Not all marriages have the same rules. Will and Jada Smith's marriage is a recent example of people deviating from traditional marital rules, actions, and expectations. Many spouses are willing to look the other way as long as their main needs/requirements are being fulfilled. Maybe Robyn isn't as pressed as viewers are because -- like Ashley and Mia -- her marriage contract may be more lenient in matters concerning faithfulness and fidelity. If we're sitting up here expecting Juan to be faithful to Robyn, and she has no expectations of the same, that would be a damn trip. Therefore, I've decided that if Robyn's simple ass likes it, then I LOVE it. I'll never forget Robyn during that cast trip to Bermuda (when she and Juan were still supposedly living as roommates). Robyn turned quite a few heads. Meanwhile, she sat there looking like a bump on a log. I knew then that she would probably never truly be on the market again,. Her heart is set on Juan.

Evelyn must not care anything about her daughter's feelings. Didn't Shaunice say she no longer trusted Jennifer and didn't deal with her like that anymore? Meanwhile, Evelyn is back on guard duty, protecting Jen like she's being paid. I have to wonder how Shaunice felt seeing that mess.

- I enjoyed Gizelle's delusions during her lunch with Robyn. Unless that young server wants to be in entertainment, she needn't worry about his age. He was only worried about his tip. - Mia may be dumb, but she's smart enough to see Wendy's desperate ass coming from a mile down the road. Wendy may have to take a few showers with Mia to get that friendship off the ground. - Nneka came in hot when she called Wendy a bitch. Short fuse. I wish she'd been smart enough to see what Ashley was doing and turn it around, call Wendy, and forge an alliance. Unfortunately, Nneka was thirsty; now she has a flute. - I hate that Wendy and Nneka got their husbands out here beefing now. - I loved Production adding all the ladies opinions about Juan's predilections as the Dixons descended on that pickle ball game like a Batman villain looking to destroy Gotham. Juan has said Robyn's catchphrase so much this year (I DON'T CARE!), that I think he should hold Robyn's flute. Came for Karen's baked beans pan like:
