    I’ve realized that this Show can’t survive without Ayan and Lesa. Caroline S was threading very close to the R-word stamp. Andy made it clear that the show was based on Caroline S but we got 2 Black women who made her irrelevant and boring. They need another Season without Phaedra, Brooke’s support. Ayan is GOLD and Lesa came prepared and shined. I’ve never laughed so much with a reunion, my hubby questioned if I was OK. Great Recap!

      Hey Debbie!! Thank you!! I have to say while I’m no Stanbury fan, Lesa and Ayan were a bit obnoxious at times during this reunion imo! And after thinking about it, I really don’t know if anyone carried this season tbh. I’m going to need some more organic storylines, real friendships and less attention seeking “I wanna be the star” antics from some of these ladies! 😭😩

      Brooke, what’s so apparent Lesa and Ayan came to the Reunion knowing that it’s 4 against 2. That’s why you probably saw antics. Those 4 ladies saw Lesa/Ayan as the Fan favorite and presented themselves as sloppy and desperate for camera time. Trying to convince the viewers Lesa/Ayan are not it. It’s was so funny to see these ladies so threatened by 2 black ladies. At the same time, Caroline S, knows this Show is not for her. Thanks

    In defense of Lesa, I think it's Nina's change up coupled with the gang up at the end of the season. Imagine knowing someone for 6 years (longest friendship in the group) and your friend WARNS you about this woman. Then cameras go up, filming starts, and all of a sudden she's BFFs with that same woman (the anticipated "queen bee" of the show). AND THEN they team up against you and your other friend. It feels very calculated to me and I don't blame Lesa for looking at Nina sideways.

Brooke's is dangerous in that manner

    I highly doubt Lesa and Ayan were jealous of Stanbury. She’s the one who was bothered by Ayan to the point of calling Ayana and asking her not join the show because it was centered around her and her friends. I think Stanbury was tooting her own horn and this rubbed Lesa and Ayan the wrong way, so they vowed to outshine her. Besides, Lesa and Ayan don't have the power to kick Stanbury out of the show, only the executives can do that lol
    Edit: I also don’t think Nina,Sara, Stanbury and Brooks genuinely like Ayan. I feel like they all look down on her apart from Lesa.

    Bottom line is that these women teamed up against Lesa and Ayan. I agree with them standing up to these women. Good for them. None of these women, outside of Lesa and Ayan even offered an apology. During watching this reunion, I was annoyed more so with Caroline Stansbury's inability to hold herself accountable for any of her actions. She was the obnoxious and annoying one for me. Regarding friendship, you cannot judge other people on how they respond to disloyalty. Nina has known Lesa the longest and clearly switched up on Lesa. Friends sit down and talk it out, so Nina should have done that with Lesa, which is the point that Lesa was making repeatedly rather than being fake and insincere.

    I think a lot of Ayana’s comments are not as bad as they may appear. I notice that she phrases things that make you think they are worse than her intention due to her English vocabulary. When she apologized to Stanbury saying “I’m sorry that I looked better than you.” I believe Ayan meant to say that she was sorry “If” Stanbury felt that way. I notice quite often that when she tries to explain herself it’s because of her interpretation of the English language. Leaving one word out changes the entire meaning of a comment. It’s easy to see the worst from Ayan because we already assume that she’s confident borderline arrogant. However from the people that have met her in regular life, say the complete opposite and that she is a joy to be around and extremely nice.

    Ayan felt bullied at the dinner table because she asked them to stop talking about a party she didn't attend, yet Brooks smirked and started to talk about how fun it was all over again. On Ayan saying she looks the best...I think it's just her english...she rides for her friends and is not shy to compliment others, she just makes sure to have her own back too.

    Definitely a LOT of GASLIGHTING amongst them ALL. Lesa appeared less than couth with the rich comparisons, Stanbury's reads were too below the belt and left bad tastes in my mouth, but she weirdly appeared less bothered opposed to Lesa. Lesa should just have come out with the Jeffrey epstein link opposed to her high school reads. Ayan's story was inspiring and she was least less thirsty this second part. Sara is the absolute most talking about Nina _"suffering"_ at the fashion show because she is vegetarian. I was like _"girl shut up"_ in the words of brooke.

    I really had to pause to comment. Stansbury says she won't invite people she want cool with or only invited those she was close to. She didn't know Lesa or Nina that well but they were there. The invite was sent out to castmates and she didn't invite Ayan because as she said she doesn't like her. Let's not forget that at the dinner Stansbury said categorically she didn't like Ayan. Now somehow at the reunion it's she wasn't close to Ayan. Let's be fair
    She was filming for this new show so all cast members really could have been invited. A lot of gaslighting is going on.

    I'm still trying to figure out these ladies. They fight with each other all the time then they make up. I also thought it was going to be centered around Stanbury, who I never liked on Ladies of London! I was glad to see they outshine her. One thing I noticed about Ayan is every time she meets someone she compliments them first. Always. I know being an insecure women myself when I was young, I was always over dressed. All my meetings at AA I would dress to the nines. Even shopping. Going to lunch, every time. I'm in a wheelchair now and still overdress to go to the Doctors😂😂😂😂
    I'm laughing but it is insecurity. I hope she continues her therapy.
    Brooks is cool! I like her. I thought that Nina was rude at that place they were and she demanded French fries. I side eyed🙄her after that. It's never too late to show affection. Stanbury, I'm talking to you.I'm not sure about Sara either. Know it all??🤔🤔🤔maybe!

Whether they change the cast or not, I rather enjoyed RHOD and will definitely watch again. They brought a breath of fresh air and their silly disagreements were nothing compared to the negativity/backstabbing of RHOA or the nasty/toxic/double standard behavior of RHOB. Jus' saying.

    Saying you're going to show Stansbury that she's not the Queen B and plotting to get her off the show are 2 different things. Brooks misrepresents things for dramatic effect... to say she was a part of a plot was just to bring controversy and confusion.

    I have no problem with Ayan. She's friends with Leesa and Lessa doesnt pay her antics any mind. The rest of these girls are her coworkers. She shades them , she overreacts, she does too much ... and then she apologizes. That's a reality TV personality

    I'm watching the second part right now. 4 minutes in and I'm OVER IT! Lesa irritates me and the fact that she's irritating me takes it up a notch cause I liked her (I'm on the fence now).
    During the season, I was getting alot of mean girl (and low-key racist vibes) and, since I seemed to be the only one to notice it, I pushed it to the side to re-evaluate later. Every time I did that, I would be reminded by it from her confessional scenes. Everyone was so fixated on Caroline not liking them (Lesa and Ayan) cause "they are black" or being jealous of them "cause they were black" but they yet no one was picking up on the things either of them said in the confessional towards Stansbury.
    I get everyone have their favorites but if you're gonna call out one for being passive aggressive and doing things you classify as being racist then you should be able to call out others, whether you like them or not, when they are clearly saying things with similar connotations in the confessionals.

      I think I understand your point of view here. But the thing is that I do understand Lesa's frustration when it comes to Nina and Stanbury.
      For me personally, Stanbury and Nina reminds me a lot of people I knew that are MASTERS when it comes to keeping a good image/ throwing rocks and hiding their hands / doing their dirt under the table and manipulating other people's perceptions.
      Even though I do think that Ayan and Lesa are both very reactive and are not very good at managing their emotions. Which can make them look obnauseous. I do believe that their reaction can be valid.
      Anyways, I'm definitely keeping my eyes on Nina. (As well as Andy who can be sneaky at times).

    Brooke, RHOBH, M2M, and RHODubai have arguments and beef that I just don't understand. It's crazy in the way they want to have a moment with someone. I think Ayana deals with understanding when to turn up and when not to turn up. I know language is a barrier and the humor is a little off. Her tone is serious but she's trying to be funny. Lesa needs to stop listening to Rich gas her up.

    Ayans story does not match the picture. Her argument with CS was her asking what does she do - because its still not clear. Ayan said a few times her husband takes care of her and the only thing she does is him. Later says she has a model agency blah blah blah. Her home scenes look like the prop scenes they set up on BBW so IDK maybe next season when they put it together it will make sense. No Phaedra please.

    I’m definitely the unpopular opinion here 😭 I usually agree with every other recap you have so I’ll never stop watching I love this show.
    I hate Ayan so much but I can’t stand overly confident/ conceited people. I find her too dumb to be that conceited and it’s not a language barrier, she doesn’t know anything. She’s another Theresa Guidice. Lesa is boring AF! How is Lesa entertaining lol I don’t get it?!
    And I love Caroline S. I felt bad for her alot during this season as I felt she was picked on. Even the ladies said they disliked her before they even met her due to what Nina told them.
    It’s clear from watching that as soon as Stanbury came on the scene, Ayan started going in on her.
    Also, Stanbury is really wealthy lol Lesa needs to stop playing with those lies 😂 her ex was a multi millionaire.
    Also, how is it her fault she was friends with Epstein? You could be here and there hi and bye friends but you don’t have to know everyone’s lives. Look at all the people that hung out with R Kelly. Jay Z and Beyoncé did but no one’s hating on them. It’s not fair to throw someone under the bus just because they we’re friends with someone who did bad things.
