Angela gets some time on this episode, and we learn that she is a self-made millionaire, renovating five properties that she bought on her own. You thought Charles Oakley was only an NBA player, but he’s a great dad and chef as well. He also does not care about the drama between Porsha and Drew, pointing out that Angela did some work with an ex-boyfriend in the past.
Despite Kenya and Porsha’s love-hate relationship, they head to dinner (in their respective Rolls-Royces) and enjoy their newfound respect for one another. Porsha explains that Dennis DID do a kids’ album (who knew?), and she shares that she is most angry that Drew wants to film with him on the show.
When it comes to Simon, Porsha talks about being his FIFTH wife when the judgment got released to the press. Porsha cannot believe that Simon has already brought random women into their home, and she realizes what a fraud he truly is.
Kelli checks out a new restaurant that she is trying to open ASAP. Because Kelli’s ex has not paid any child support (unless court ordered), she realizes the importance of starting to franchise Nana’s Chicken and Waffles. When she found out she had to close one of her locations thanks to her ex, it put so much stress on her financially.
Brit and her husband, Michael, are discussing a move to her dream home. She wants to get pregnant and have her mom move in, but the mixed messages her husband is giving off make you wonder if he’s down to appease his wife.
Shamea checks in on Shiloh’s surrogate. She met the surrogate through Kandi, and at about 32 weeks into her pregnancy with Shiloh, the surrogate was diagnosed with breast cancer. Shamea feels guilt about this, and the surrogate does as well since Shiloh was born so early due to the circumstances.
Shamea has gone through seven rounds of IVF and had an ectopic pregnancy. She discusses how much Black women suffer through maternal mortality, and she is excited to learn that there may be a match out there to expand her family.
Brit talks to Kelli about a wedding ceremony that she never got to have because they got married during the pandemic. They discuss how Porsha was going in on Drew, and Brit shares her annoyance with Kenya asking about her wedding band. Brit suggests that Kenya should worry more about herself and her divorce.
Speaking of divorce, Kelli talks about her cheating husband who took almost $500,000 out of the company’s account. Kelli talks about how it got physical at one point and how she had to sleep in her closet.
Later, Drew hosts a private gym session with Angela and Shamea. Angela doesn’t mince words and wonders why Drew would choose to work with Dennis, but Drew claims Dennis came to the table with an offer. Angela tries to real-talk Drew, but Drew explains how the studio has been her saving grace as she navigates through her divorce with Ralph. Her music career is helping to keep her going financially since Ralph is taking lots of her money.
Shamea joins the ladies, and after the workout, Drew tells the women that Dennis actually advocated for Drew and Ralph to get back together. Angela asks Shamea why she would ask THAT question for Porsha, but Shamea feels like Angela is coming in hot. Drew refers to Shamea as Porsha’s lap dog.
When Dennis and Porsha get together at a playdate with their daughter, it spirals quickly. Dennis tries to explain that working with Drew is professional, and Porsha tells him her issues about him filming with Drew, as this is *her* territory. “Imagine him and I getting into it or something, and we’re not speaking. And now he gets offered these cameras to come and use my own platform again me.” She wants loyalty from him and refuses to cry in front of him.
Twenty minutes later, Porsha gets caught on a hot mic. “When you show up anywhere on these cameras with anyone else, it’s gonna be a problem. Another damn Housewife looks absolutely insane.” Seems like she is just worried about what Dennis may say on camera when Porsha is not around. Porsha warns Dennis that “not every promotion is a good promotion,” and she realizes she “can’t count on nobody but me.”
One thing’s certain: Porsha is definitely bothered by Drew working with Dennis despite pretending not to be. Is it residual feelings for Dennis? Jealousy cause Porsha also wanted a music career in the past? Or are Porsha’s feelings valid cause her ex is filming with her co-worker on her show? Whatever the reason is, this feud is just heating up!
