Brooke Bailey

Last night's Basketball Wives L.A. resumed with Jackie Christie crashing Gloria Govan's tasting party at Malaysia Pargo's request.  As none of the other women had seen Jackie since the reunion (presumably), they were waiting with baited breath for an apology or an explanation…heck, even just a sentence at this point!  Draya Michele is shocked when Jackie just fixes a plate, grabs a cocktail, and sits down silently at the table.  The queen has arrived!

Malaysia makes a toast to explain Jackie's attendance, and both Gloria and Laura Govan have some catty things to get off of their chests.  Jackie is trying to maintain her cool as her buttons are being pushed left and right.  Draya says that Jackie is going to work very hard to regain any kind of trust.  Poor newbie Brooke Bailey just introduces herself.  Jackie begins her apology about being defensive, but Draya and Laura think she is totally lacking sincerity.  I'd have to agree.

The women of Basketball Wives L.A. are back and are as unhinged as ever.  At least a few of them are actual wives though, so it is an easier premise to swallow than its original counterpart…sort of.  All of the original players are back it appears, although Imani Showalter is missing from the credits and she is replaced by Brooke Bailey.

The show begins with a discussion between Wacky Jackie Christie and her long suffering time spouse and confidante Doug.  Jackie is worried about her daughter.  After the death of mother, she allowed her daughter to stay in Washington.  Jackie isn't sure how well she'll handle this whole "being independent" thing.  Doug reveals that Jackie's daughter has texted him a few times, and he thinks she's doing just fine.  Jackie starts rationalizing in a way that only Jackie can, blabbering on about sisterhoods and bonds and how easy it is for her to admit when she's wrong.  Jackie is ready to apologize to her co-stars, and she has come to the conclusion that she just can't help people who don't want to be helped…and that is all she was trying to do.  Again, sort of.
