Candiace Dillard Says Monique Samuels’ Exit Was A “Load Off All Of Us” And Real Housewives Of Potomac Season 5 Was “Very Dark”

Candiace Dillard Bassett Real Housewives Of Potomac

The Real Housewives of Potomac had its first big cast shakeup with the exit of Monique Samuels after four seasons on the show.  Karen Huger, Robyn Dixon, Gizelle Bryant, and Ashley Darby have been the core four since the premiere season.  Candiace Dillard joined in Season 3 and, after taking some newbie heat from Karen, fit into the group quite well.  She brought the drama, but also solidified friendships overall.

The support she got from Robyn and Gizelle after her physical altercation with Monique helped her finish out the season.  But Candiace was still visibly upset at the reunion, and questioned Monique’s accountability and remorse for the incident.  The fallout from that event really dampened the mood at the reunion.  While Karen called for healing within the group, Monique chose to take the easy route and quit the show.

Blind Item: East Coast Real Housewives Star Knows Husband Will Cheat On Her “The Whole Time” If She Participates In All Stars Series

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Margaret Josephs, Jackie Goldschneider, Melissa Gorga, Teresa Giudice, Dolores Catania, Jennifer Aydin
Real Housewives stars are no stranger to cheating rumors. Or just actual adultery, unfortunately. We all saw that video of Brandi Redmond’s husband someone who looks just like Brandi Redmond’s husband Bryan Redmond making out with a woman in the club.
We’ve heard plenty of cheating allegations about Joe Giudice and Teresa Giudice. Ashley Darby’s husband Michael Darby has had more than his fair share of indiscretions. Gizelle Bryant is back with her cheating ex-husband Pastor Jamal Bryant. Ramona Singer and Mario Singer divorced following his affair. Frank Catania cheating on Dolores Catania while she was pregnant. I can go on and on. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of cheating in the Real Housewives universe.

Blind Item: New Real Housewives Of Potomac Star Had Affair With Husband From The Show

Real Housewives Of Potomac

We all know that Monique Samuels will not be on Real Housewives of Potomac when the show returns for Season 6. It’s been rumored that she’s been replaced by Mia Thornton, but it’s unclear if Mia is a full-time Housewife or a part-time cast member.

We also don’t know if there are any other new additions to the cast, but there is some potentially explosive gossip circulating.

Andy Cohen Denies Claim That Gizelle Bryant Meltdown Was Cut From Real Housewives Of Potomac Reunion; Monique Samuels Slams Andy For “Lies”

Gizelle Bryant Real Housewives Of Potomac

Monique Samuels and Karen Huger came for Gizelle Bryant and her fake relationship with Jamal Bryant during the Real Housewives of Potomac Season 5 reunion episodes. Real Housewives of Potomac viewers came for host Andy Cohen for the way that he felt he treated some of the cast members, specifically Monique.

Monique “quit” announced her departure from the show right after the last reunion episode ended. Then, Andy addressed the backlash against him. So did Monique. And, in addition to all of that, Andy addressed the claims that a Gizelle  meltdown was edited out of the reunion. To be honest, this wouldn’t be surprising. We all know Andy, an executive producer on the show, plays favorites. Plus, Gizelle is also on the snooze-inducing show Bravo’s Chat Room. It would make sense for the network to protect someone who’s considered “talent” (lol) on two different shows.

Real Housewives Of Potomac Star Karen Huger Wonders If Gizelle Bryant Is Bloated From Alcohol Inflammation; Hasn’t Spoken To Gizelle Since Reunion

Karen Huger Gizelle Bryant Real Housewives Of Potomac

We’ve entered an era where “unity” is the new buzzword on deck. In theory, we are to work with and accept those who don’t necessarily think the way we do, in an effort to bring people together for the overall betterment of humanity. It’s a nice idea, but apparently that particular message of harmony has yet to reach the Real Housewives of Potomac. Lots of things happened during the 5th season of RHOP and unity wasn’t one of them.

Candiace Dillard’s square tissue became a star. Monique Samuels’ African Grey became an icon. There was… a fight. And longtime friends Karen Huger and Gizelle Bryant found themselves on opposite teams, insulting each other through many of the episodes. The Grand Dame and Giz neither resolved their issues or agreed to disagree, so if you think the insulting stopped just because they aren’t currently filming, you would be wrong. Now we learn Karen hasn’t even spoken to Gizelle since the reunion, but she has spoken about Gizelle since the reunion.

Andy Cohen Responds To Backlash From Real Housewives Of Potomac Reunion

Monique Samuels Andy Cohen Real Housewives Of Potomac

The Real Housewives of Potomac Reunion put Monique Samuels back onscreen after being iced out of the group since her fight with Candiace Dillard.  Her name was constantly on the lips of her cast mates, but Monique was largely missing in action for the latter part of the season.

Both Candiace and Monique were able to speak their truth regarding the altercation.  They faced each other, but were unable to resolve the situation.  Some fans questioned the impartiality of the reunion, specifically Andy Cohen’s role in monitoring the conversation.  Candiace had the support of Gizelle Bryant, Robyn Dixon, Wendy Osefo, and at times Karen Huger as well.  She also got more time to speak, so it’s not surprisings that Monique’s fans are crying foul.  Especially since Monique quit the show because of her treatment at the reunion.

Monique Samuels Denies That She Was Demoted From Real Housewives Of Potomac; Confirms Reunion Sealed Her Decision To Quit

Monique Samuels Real Housewives Of Potomac

Monique Samuels took her toys and left the Real Housewives of Potomac sandbox. Or did she? I think by now we are all pretty much aware of Bravo’s generous method of allowing fired Housewives to control their exit narrative. Normal policy and procedure is to offer the departing individual their own spin on how they chose to leave. Unless you are Vicki Gunvalson and remain in a state of confused begging until your last day on Earth.

Let’s face it, if it weren’t for Monique lending a helping hand to style Candiace Dillard’s wig, people would still not be talking about RHOP. No one cares about Robyn Dixon’s hats or DOCTOR Wendy Osefo’s degrees. And despite the grandeur of Karen Huger, it wasn’t her living situation that made viewers watch. Monique and Candiace gave the show a heartbeat, and it seemed like no cast changes would happen in the wake of Mo and Candy’s battle royale. Until news that Monique was not returning began making the rounds. Now Monique speaks on what helped her make the decision not to come back to the show she helped put on the map.

Monique Samuels Accuses Bravo Of Setting Her Up At The Reunion; Says The Situation Was “Jacked Up”

Monique Samuels Real Housewives Of Potomac

The Season 5 reunion of Real Housewives of Potomac really delivered. Of course, much of the drama centered on the physical altercation between Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard.

Monique brought a binder of receipts to the RHOP reunion and proceeded to school Gizelle Bryant about her relationship with  ex-husband (and current boyfriend), Pastor Jamal Bryant. Monique had text messages from another woman and Jamal, and even read out Jamal’s phone number. Yikes!
