Good morning

All right, girls, it's three -year injury.

This is crazy.

You know what? I actually feel, like, good. I came in, like, you know, I put

crystal.

Are you excited about your look?

I'm so excited.

Everything's custom around here, darling.

It wouldn't be Kelly if it wasn't. It wouldn't be Kelly if it wasn't.

And we are here for another Kelly moment.

Look, it's so funny with the t -shirts. I'm like, I don't know. This girl is so

obsessed with my team. I guess we need to get some custom t -shirts. Oh, my

goodness. Let's make sure we know who's who around here so we don't have any

more confusion.

I'm doing the Diana.

I'm going to put them down.

Firstborn, honey.

That's what I want.

Talk about glue in the teeth.

I'm melting.

I thought I was being cute, trying to use the fan to stop the wig from running

from my forehead, but the wig was just leaving.

It's not going to fall off. It's not going to shift.

We locked and loaded.

I'm good. I mean, I can handle the attacks, you know, they may try and put

me.

Wait, what time are we going to start?

9 o 'clock. It is empty. No one is in there. What?

It is nobody.

What is this woman at?

Oh my gosh. I mean, I'm excited.

I have not been asleep. Me either. Me either. In two days.

We ain't never going to have a reunion like this. This

can be very stressful.

Let's take the magnesium.

I don't take no magnesium.

Is that what happened to me this morning? I cannot.

You're going to have bubble guts.

Hey, everybody.

11 .30.

Hey, Andy.

Hey. You look beautiful.

Thank you. Mwah, mwah.

Hi, you made it out.

Mwah, mwah.

Oh, girl, you're inviting.

Let's do it.

Oh, yeah. Is that how she sits?

Okay, wait, wait, wait. This is how I get you now.

Yes, baby. Have a seat. We got you back.

There you go.

All right.

Where's everybody?

I thought I was last.

Come on.

Wow, there's a warrior princess into everything.

Yes,

Lord. Thank you.

Hey,

gorgeous. All right. We're going to get this show on the road.

Five, four.

Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Real Housewives of Atlanta season 16 reunion.

I'm Andy Cohen. Now, after 16 years, Atlanta has always reigned supreme.

But this season came with a bit of a facelift, a remix, and a whole new vibe.

One of our juiciest peaches made her grand return.

Four new peaches hit the group chat.

One OG clocked out and another clocked in. It started off sweet, got spicy in

the middle, but stayed shady all the way through.

Would you agree, Cowboy Williams?

Oh, absolutely.

Great to see you. Nothing but fact.

Welcome back. Thank you.

Thank you. You are fresh off a little procedure?

Coco and Chanel are back at their rightful position, just like me.

Okay, very good. Smell them. Remember, you got to smell them. Don't see they

look new.

Smell them. I don't know how I'm going to smell them. That feels like an HR

issue.

Hey, Phaedra. Hello. Welcome back.

Thank you. Good to be here.

You're not having any, like, PTSD being on a reunion stage. You know what?

Reunions are always crazy. You just don't know what to expect. But, hey,

do it. Okay.

Hi, Shamia.

Hi, Andy.

From plus one to the one?

I mean, that's what they say.

Is that what they say?

This is your first reunion as a full housewife. How does it feel?

It feels amazing. I got to come out with everyone else, you know.

Hi, Angela.

Hi. Welcome to your first reunion.

Yes, I'm happy to be here. You have your fans? I do.

Hey,

Kelly.

Welcome to your first reunion.

Thank you. I'm so happy to be here.

Did you bring us any chicken and waffles?

I did bring a crystal for us. We kind of needed that.

All right. Let it just do its work.

We feel it. We feel the energy.

Hey, Drew.

Hey, Andy.

Are you ready to school these newbies in five different languages? I can tell

them a thing or two. Yes.

Teach them.

Now, as you may have noticed, Britt Edie has decided not to join us today.

What? Wow.

I'm shocked.

Unfortunate.

What's your reaction to that, Kelly?

She caused mass destruction within our friend group.

And I think she does what she always does. She plays victim and villain at

same damn time.

At the end of the day, it's a sisterhood, whether we like it or not.

We're in this sorority together, so I just, I feel bad that she wasn't

comfortable enough to call me, you know, or call anybody.

Has anyone spoken to her in the last couple days?

Yeah, I spoke to her last night.

She didn't mention that she wasn't coming.

That's a big omission.

Yeah, it is.

We just simply spoke about the fact that the men were going to be here,

husbands, baby daddies, boyfriends, were possibly going to be here today.

Did she say her significant other was coming? Yeah, she said he was coming,

that was pretty much it.

So I thought she was just late.

As we have all seen, it was a lot of things that she said that were not true.

So I was looking forward to addressing those things and holding her

Damn.

I'm gonna.

What do you think, Drew?

I had gotten a text from her a couple of weeks ago where she was basically

filing a lawsuit against me.

So I definitely wanted to get into that and talk about it, but I guess I'll hear

from her lawyers maybe.

A lawsuit about what?

She was upset about a blog talking about things that were on the poster board

that Kenya showed.

So for that reason, she said I would hear from her lawyers, but I haven't.

But, you know, it would have been great because we've been cool.

Uh -huh.

Let's move on.

Phaedra, talk to me about your head piece.

You know what? I was inspired by Jab Jab, so I'm giving Jab Jab. Okay, yeah.

Wow. I think.

Okay. Are you a warrior ready for battle?

I was just here.

I don't need to battle too much. OK. I know that's right.

What is it about the men in Grenada? We're here in Grenada right now. Spice

Island. They are beautiful. They are beautiful.

How many of y 'all felt like Phaedra after leaving the party that you may be

carrying a Jab -Jab baby?

We were all pregnant.

Phaedra was pregnant. And it was by the same man.

Oh, really?

It looks so fun. Yes. We might need to go back.

Amen. Yeah, and Janetta was a vibe.

I don't know about everybody else, but I just felt free. Yeah. All right.

I got to say, Kelly, Angela, and Shamia, what a great first season y 'all had. I

mean, it's so hard stepping into this show, and the viewers really connected

with each of you separately.

What does that feel like to be welcomed by the fans, each of you?

It absolutely felt amazing.

You know, like I said to myself, when I come on this platform, if I'm not able

to do any other thing, I want to make sure that I inspire the next man or

you know, not to give up after divorce.

You know, life can still be amazing.

And that journey gets better. Yeah. Angela, what about you?

You know what, Andy? I'm happy that when I started to get hot, I met so many

other people who get hot as well.

You're the hottest one in the room.

She's the hot girl.

The hottie. The hottie. The hottie, girl. The hot girl.

Shamia, what about you? I enjoyed it. I mean, it's been a long time coming.

For the longest time, I've just been kind of in the shadows a little bit.

So it was nice to kind of be able to tell my own story and have our fans

my journey. Yeah.

And before I get into it, because we have a lot to talk about. Yeah. Okay.

we start with a prayer?

You want to lead us in a prayer? I would love. I would love. Start with a

prayer. Come on. Come on, Shania. I love it.

All right.

Heavenly Father, we come to you right now with humble hearts and open hearts.

ask that you give us grace and mercy.

Center us all in love and peace.

Don't let us go dark, God. Let us all leave with understanding.

You have protected us and covered us this far. Thank you for even loving on

ones that we lost, God. We want to continue to carry the legacy for Londi,

Angela's mom.

We thank you for all of your blessings in advance.

In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Amen.

Amen. Amen.

Amen. That was good. Thank you for that.

Okay. I'm curious if anyone wants to set any intentions out of today. Okay. The

intention I would like to set today is to honor who we are and where we are in

whatever space. I have healed a lot and I'm in a totally different mind space. I

feel back to being Portia again. And I just want to step to the plate with each

lady, with each issue, with truth.

I'm really here to figure out what is going to be the way forward or how we're

going to close the door.

Coming up next.

I don't think that you should compare my divorce to your divorce. I did not

compare my divorce to yours. I was married for 11 years. You were married

months. Like, let's not compare apples to peaches.

That little cow's looking real. Yeah, we need to get a little more body heat

over here. I know, right? Yeah, exactly.

You guys look so

gorgeous.

Thank you. How are you?

Good to see you. How you doing?

All right, here we go, guys. Okay, we got to clear.

Five, four, three, two.

Welcome back to the RHOA Season 16 reunion, and let's give a warm welcome

best friend of RHOA has ever had, the one and only Cynthia Cheekbones Bailey.

Hi, Cynthia.

Hi. Great to see you. Hi, Andy. Nice to see you as well.

It was so wonderful having you as a part of the season. You brought the piece

where needed, and you gave out.

All of the love. How did you enjoy your role this season?

I actually loved it. I was able to relate to so many different things that

they're going through because I've been through divorce on the show.

I've been married on the show.

I've been through friendship breakups on the show. I was able to just be

supportive. I mean, you were kind of the glue of this group. Absolutely. You

were. You were able to flow in between.

How do you feel about Frick and Frack revealing all about your hood?

We have an inverted clip.

Yeah.

I have a hood.

A hood. Exactly.

Your clip with the KKK.

Yeah.

Girl. But we need clarification.

You know what I'm talking about. If you think you need clarification, I'm like,

I feel like y 'all are talking Japanese. I'm just pretending to. You got the

man.

And her boat has on a hoodie.

He's a young one. But Amsterdam found him. Does the hood come off? This is not

your thing, Andy. All right. I'll haul it back home. Oh, my God.

How is your boyfriend Amsterdam?

His name actually isn't Amsterdam.

It is. It is.

Is it my friend?

Yes, my friend. Yes, my friend.

I was looking for a king, but I got a friend. He DJs, he also sings, and he

emcees. And what is the age gap? He's 39.

He's 39?

Yes. All right. OK, yeah, yeah.

From what I recall, your man is a little younger than that. Is that right? Yeah,

he's 32.

OK. OK.

I love it. I wonder why y 'all are smiling. The age gap is gapping. Yeah,

really. Yeah, this is the Giggly Squad, and we know why.

They got a nephew?

Hey, Portia.

Yes. This season was really meant to be your happily ever after. But after

filing for divorce from your would -be Prince Charming and getting sucked back

into some drama with the hot dog king, you did everything you could to protect

your kingdom and most of all, your peace.

Here's how that worked.

It is definitely crazy having to call Randy again and saying, I got to file

divorce. Now saying he doesn't want me to film in my home.

is an issue you've been in the industry how long well why didn't portion uh we

talked about it no people said that they saw y 'all out at the club y 'all were

booed up stop playing matching us you can marry him fuck him or kill him i

care you have been trying to go behind my back and do something very dirty by

asking Dennis to film with you. Oh, and I'm here to tell you, you fucking with

the wrong one.

Drew, you know, she's going to use the platform for promotion.

Now you better pick me up.

What's the problem?

When you show up anywhere on these cameras with somebody else, it's going

a problem. You know, she's going off because I'm working with you. You told

she was all good with it, but now she's not okay. Dennis is an intricate part of

my album.

Portia wasn't here because Londi, her cousin, died suddenly.

Oh, thank God.

From having to file for divorce, the loss of my cousin Londi, my heart is

broken.

You're a little emotional seeing that with Londi? Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

You okay? Just one second.

Just give her a second.

You okay? Yeah, we're going to give her a second.

Okay. I'm so sorry. Okay.

I know how important she was to you and your family.

Yeah.

In happier news, it was great to see you in your house finally.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah. So filming in the house must have felt really good.

The house meant a couple things to me.

You know, when I married...

Simon. OK. We both agreed to do a prenup. It was hard for us to do a

because we're so in love. You know, when you're in love, you almost want to say,

well, just forget paperwork, right? Yeah.

Whose home is it?

So he bought the home prior to us getting married. And the prenup had

stipulations, which makes it a marital home.

Whether I decide to keep it or sell it, I still want to be able to maintain it

because that's the only thing that I have in the divorce that I was, you

that it was important.

And where are you currently?

in the process of your divorce? It's kind of like the phantom divorce, like,

with her. She went, it didn't end. Same thing with me. I went, and it was

supposed to end, and it didn't end.

The circumstances that I'm dealing with now, being that he's an unbillable

Simon, you know, there's less... Where is he?

You know, I'd rather not speak on Simon specifically, just for legal reasons.

I had read that he's detained by ICE. Did you read that? Well, that is true.

That's true. Yeah, that's true.

Yeah. Phaedra, what would I find? Why is he being detained?

There is a immigration issue. He doesn't have citizenship here. And if someone

is detained by ICE, does that mean they're in a jail somewhere?

Pretty much, yes. Wow.

Now, you know what the folks on Twitter are chirping about?

What? They think you called ICE on Simon. I mean, they think it's funny,

does not benefit me for him to be detained at all.

This would be done and moving on if that were the case.

Right.

Do you still love him?

I do.

And to be honest with you, him being detained like this is making it worse.

Were Gerald and Simon buddies? They knew each other. They were cool.

We were, like, taking couple trips, and, you know, it was a good time.

But I know early on when we talked about you getting married and your prenup, I

asked you, did you find out everything? Like, is he a scammer? All the rumors,

did you dispel them?

I mean, you know, you and Gerald even mentioned that he had a past and that

maybe all of his money wasn't what it seemed to be. And for us to do our

it took us almost nine months.

So due diligence was definitely paid for.

What was the reason for the breakup, if you could summarize it?

Generally, I'll say that there were a lot of untruths in the marriage.

I was positioned in a way where I was endangered at a lot of point in time,

physically, other ways. And so I had to make that choice.

James Christian from Jersey said, Kelly, why did you really want validation from

Portia to see if she messed with that lady's husband? Were you asking out of

concern or to be messy?

I was definitely asking out of concern. You weren't. How?

I definitely was. Screaming at a party before you even introduced yourself?

Well, I wasn't screaming, one. You were screaming.

I wasn't screaming at you about taking the woman's husband.

So my question was, why did she take that woman's husband?

I literally just was asking you in regards to, you know, what happened?

Did you ever get your answer?

Well, the answer was you really loved him.

Does it seem real? No.

You and I had a real woman -to -woman conversation.

We did.

Through us talking, you realized that we were going through the exact same

thing. Your husband was online bashing you. We didn't go through the exact same

thing, but go ahead.

We both in kind said that our husbands were putting our divorce documents

online. We loved our husbands, and we had to leave it for certain financial

reasons. Hold on. I wasn't married for 11 years. You were married for 11

Like, let's not compare apples to peaches.

We didn't go through the exact same thing, but go ahead.

We both in kind said that our husbands were putting our divorce documents

online. We loved our husbands, and we had to leave it for certain financial

reasons. Hold on. I was married for 11 years. You were married for 11 months.

Like, let's not compare apples to peaches. Okay, that's fine. So mine

count. That's fine. So hold on. Let me finish. Portia, I'm not saying that we

did not have that conversation.

What I'm saying is, I don't think that you should compare my divorce to your

divorce. I did not compare my divorce to yours. Number one, we're two women

going through a divorce.

Fighting for our life. Well, I was fighting literally and financially.

Okay, Kayla, I think I've made my point. That's fine. You can make it.

Starador on Twitter said, Portia, you know people already think you stole a

member's husband, so why would you say you would fuck Angela's husband? Last

night, she said, I should fuck Charles.

First of all, let me just apologize again.

Even though when you found out about it and we talked at Cynthia's event, Angela

apologized to me because she had brought up the Simon situation. You need to be

held accountable for stealing Simon from his wife. And she was, I mean, she was

dragged. What I said was, no, I didn't drag it. You were the first person to

about Charles.

You just said, I know something about your husband.

And so in Nashville, I said, why did you take that woman's husband?

And Shamia said she introduced you to Simon. No, I didn't say that.

Hold on. I've never said I introduced Portia to Simon. They themselves have

said that they met in each other's DMs. I heard that, too. I heard that you

introduced them. Well, you hear a lot of stuff. I'm telling you now, I did not

introduce them. In Nashville, you said, I introduced Simon to Portia. She's my

best friend.

No, I didn't. I definitely supported Portia for sure with Simon. I thought

were a beautiful couple, and that's what it was. No.

Did Shamia introduce you to Simon?

Listen.

Well, but why did you pause?

Did she introduce you?

No. Hmm?

Hmm? Come on now. Did she say that at the table in Nashville?

Y 'all, I did not say that to you. Why would you say it to me? I didn't say it.

I'm trying to take back. I was there when she met Simon. I was there when

started this relationship.

I don't have to worry about the optic because I was there.

Did she introduce you to Simon? She already answered it. She said no, but

paused before she said it.

Did you two have a story where you wanted her to say she introduced you so

wasn't like you crept in as DM? Oh, no, absolutely not. Listen, I got introduced

to him, right?

And it happened, and the heat has been given. Let me carry my heat. All parties

have moved on.

I got him, okay? And I gave him back. So let's just leave it there.

Okay.

Keisha Loves to Travel on Twitter said, I'm enjoying the interaction with you

and Dennis on YouTube.

Any chance of giving Pilar a sibling, or better yet, getting back together?

OK. You know what? Dennis is just a jewel.

That is why I was so protective of our relationship, because I needed to have

co -parent while dealing with this divorce with Pilar.

You know what I'm saying?

We'd just be kiki -ing all in that man's house. That's great.

Yeah. All in whose house?

It's my house. Well, y 'all house. Well, did you have your house?

No, I didn't. I moved right out my house, honey. I didn't want another man

house. Well, you should have had a better prenup. I'm happy. Well, good.

glad you look it. Good. Thank you.

Maxine from Boulder, Colorado said, Drew, you said on a recent podcast that

Portia's return was a flop and a try hard.

Portia was brought back to deliver a lifestyle that she could not deliver.

It fell very flat. It was getting flopped. Do you stand by that?

Oh, yeah. I stand on that.

Because, I mean, there's a lot of things that we can talk about with Portia's

life. But yet, she came on here to attack me the entire season.

I mean, she should be worried about who flipping and flopping in that basement

with Ralph.

Don't worry about me.

Hmm.

Simon says you had no storyline.

Dennis is a part of my storyline. He is my family.

And you put yourself in the middle of the storyline, so I don't know. You knew

that you filmed with Dennis and that she felt a certain way about it. Why

continue filming with him? Where the cameras catch me, they catch me. If they

catch me in the studio, great. Dennis and I weren't ever getting together to

diminish you, disrespect you, so that was not true.

Did you really think Drew was sleeping with Dennis for beats?

Oh, no!

I thought Dennis showed you a text. No, he showed me the text. He did. What did

it say? It was the same text I showed to Ralph.

Oh, let's see, because Ralph told me what the text said.

And it didn't say, y 'all got two different stories. I don't have the

Well, what did it say? Oh, how convenient.

I can't remember what she had said right before. But his message stood out,

which was, I'm not going to blank you. I want my money for the studio.

Right? And so then it was so funny.

Was the sense that she was offering to blank him in exchange? That was the

sense. This is the business that I operate in, so there's no mistaking.

this wasn't just a homie hookup. We actually conducted real business.

Studio time is not free.

Ever. Yeah, that's what he said. It wasn't free. Saying that I was trying to

please Dennis in an inappropriate way, but you have nothing to accentuate these

allegations. He's here and so is Ralph. We'll all talk. Girl, we don't need to

talk. Oh. You look like a fool right now.

Oh. Beautiful.

To put yourself in that situation where that could even come up just feels like

a lot of work and almost distracting from what you're trying to do with your

music. Portia knew Dennis and I were working together. She was supportive of

that. No, I did not, Drew. That's what you're not hearing. We talked after my

birthday party. I took accountability for my part, but you haven't taken

accountability for your part because at the end of the day, you...

Saw my calls. I was calling you. And I answered them.

Girl, no, you didn't. You were in Dubai, Nigeria, living your African princess

life. You were in Texas, but none of your girls were. Why didn't you send her

text? I texted her. I called her. She wasn't answering the phone. Hello,

with him was not the issue. Hello, okay, because you pivoted a few times. The

issue was you filming with him. He was on the phone with you. We were in the

studio.

She was on the phone with Dennis when we were in the studio.

Okay, Drew, Drew, Drew. What was the real issue?

Because you pivoted a few times. Drew, let me ask you a question. And you were

like, yes. She told me she didn't know.

Girl, don't sit on Portia Lapp, girl. Just go in there. Because I don't even

know why you interjected.

Okay, okay, hold on.

Can I get in here?

Can I get in here? You want to say something? Yes, we never had these

But when you came to my house, I simply asked.

are you dating Dennis, right?

All y 'all came back and said that I said, are you effing Dennis?

Then when I met with you two at the gym, it was like, rah, rah. I think I was a

little shocked that you asked the question for Portia. I asked her for me.

You're being Portia's assistant.

You're coming in hot.

I think I had an issue with you asking her the question because Portia told you

to leave it alone.

She told you to leave it alone. Well, she said she could speak for herself.

But Portia doesn't tell me what to do. Well, I didn't want the question asked.

remember you saying, I'm just going to ask her, is she fucking Dennis? Is

pulling that go -making hair?

And I remember saying to you, please don't bring up her fucking him. No, you

didn't. No, you didn't. We were in the car. No, ma 'am. No, ma 'am. We're not

going to do this.

Because you want to almost act like I'm lying.

I said it to you because I said at the end of the day, I want to keep the focus

on the filming. Portia, at the time, they weren't even attempting to film

together. That didn't happen until later on. Thank you.

I never talked about filming with Dennis. He didn't want to film on the

All right,

I'm moving on. I'm going to move on.

Of all of the producers in Atlanta, why choose Dennis?

I guess you said damn good music. We didn't realize he was just. Well, I said

damn good music because of her album. Her album is really, really good.

I would think that. I would think that. I would never.

come down on your brand or who you are or your talent the way you did just now

at Breakfast Club.

Girl, don't play victim. You talked about my hair company and talked about

didn't like the hair just because of this issue.

It's interesting that you want to poke the bear and then you get mad when I

a reaction.

Chadwick from Ohio said, Portia, now that you've seen the season, do you

you owe Drew an apology for the way you treated her? From what we saw on the

show, the relationship between her and Dennis was all business.

This one.

Swing deep. Oh, my God.

That's deep in the back. Oh, my God. Thank you, Lord.

17 episodes later.

So, are we not in our light?

Right. This is an angle.

Hold on. There you go. There you go.

I genuinely wanted to come today. One of the main things I wanted to do was

to, number one, apologize for meeting with Ralph.

Did you do it to be petty?

Of course. Yeah.

But watching the season back, even though at the time I felt justified.

You still didn't feel good about it. I still did not feel good about it, Drew.

And I cared about you. I really did.

And so today I definitely knew I wanted to apologize for that. Because no matter

how upset we are with this situation, it still could have been talked through.

I just want to tell you, woman to woman who's also going through a divorce, it

wasn't right. And I apologize for that.

I appreciate that because, you know, my first season, when I had these tough,

difficult times on this show, like, you were the person I called.

Like, I'm going to be honest and I'm going to say it today.

I may throw my little shade, but...

Let's be honest. My first season, the wigs weren't melted. You know, they

weren't fast.

I will be totally honest.

And you helped me. You know, you showed up for me. And I don't forget that. And

I don't want you to think that I don't acknowledge or appreciate it. So for you

to come back and this to be the space we're in, my prayer was that we can work

through it. Because I never wanted this to be negative. I swear to you, I was

in. Fight mode. And every time I saw you, I was triggered. But I can say

here now, as I'm healing, I'm still healing, that it wasn't right.

I see you.

I love this. That's great. I feel it. That's great.

All right. We got to take a break. We'll be right back.

Coming up next.

This is a pattern.

What kind of pattern is it? Do you want me to show you? No, you have to show me.

Oh, bold. Yeah. So.

Welcome back to the Real Housewives of Atlanta season 16 reunion.

Well, Kelly, when you joined this friend group with Britt, you came into the

season inseparable to the point where you were like finishing each other's

sentences. What happened?

You know, I've had a team for many years. I didn't just get a stylist and

videographer and hair and makeup and all of these things because I was on the

show.

Britt hadn't had those things, clearly.

And she was going through a really tough time with the whole Kenya situation.

And she said she was having a hard time finding a stylist.

I extended that offer as a friend. The same thing with wardrobe. When I

that to her, it wasn't for her to have that for the entire season. But it's

another thing to want the entire team.

Because for me, it just feels like, damn, well, do you just want my life?

I mean, seriously.

Were you paying these people? I mean, of course, I pay the people.

But she paid them when she got the services done. Got it. Yeah. OK.

Portia? What?

What was your recollection of all this?

My recollection? OK.

I can't speak for Britt, of course. But what Britt did say was, like, she

started with some jealousy or something. So I thought maybe today would have

been the day that y 'all could have.

You know what I mean? Me too.

Even that jealousy comment, like, let's just be very clear. It's nothing that

Britt has that I want.

And I'm going to just leave that at that.

All right, now.

I didn't want to get into all this because I thought she was going to be

speak for herself.

But she did mention that in the very beginning of the season that the newbies

say that they want to have an alliance.

Like, you, Shamia, and her were going to be an alliance together.

And I guess you guys went to Houston, had a conversation. You know, it was

brought up like, okay, we got to take it to the next level. You know, Phaedra's

here now. We're going on this trip.

You know, we want to take Portia down.

And so I was like, okay.

So I'm just really repeating what she said. That's it. So she said, we're

to take Portia down.

I just hate that you have to relay the lies.

I don't know if I can finish it or not. But go ahead.

But, yeah, this is what she said. And then she said, from that point on, I

she said she wasn't quite comfortable.

Anyway, she said, after that, when we got to Grenada is when she noticed that

you had brought her, put her feet to the fire about the charity thing. And that

was her first inkling of like, oh, okay, I'm kicked out of the alliance at this

point. I think that's why when she met with me and Cynthia, she just started

like. You know, telling all that she had heard. You know, you saw her telling me

that Shamil was saying this about me and saying that.

And at that point, she was like, well, screw the alliance and screw anybody in

it. I'm just going to say what I want to say now.

So to be clear, yes, in the beginning, there was an alliance.

And the alliance was me, Kelly, Britt, and Portia. And that was only because...

I was not aware of that. I'm sorry. Can I finish? When we were at Knife...

I was like, OK, y 'all got to get to know Portia yourself.

We're young, fun.

I think we all have some of the same energy.

And I would love it if y 'all wouldn't go so hard on her. That part is true.

But she left out Portia. Did Portia know she was in the alliance?

Yes. So alliance is on the show. Kill show to me. It has done it in this very

show right here. Right? And so of course I would never be in a part of an

alliance. What?

That is so not true.

Also, Andy, I would like to talk when I can talk and then, you know, finish what

I want to say.

They don't want to finish it. I don't have to because that's not serious.

Siobhan from Cleveland said, Kelly, you stuck by Britt through the incident with

Kenya and you backed her up when she spread the rumor about Charles' side

Your husband hasn't been acknowledged. He's been married to you for the last

years. The world knows.

The world knows about that baby. Do the world know about that baby, though?

Were you being a good friend or an enabler? I'm a friend.

And I have my friends back no matter what. I hate, you know, unfortunately,

I supported that situation because now I have to say I know how it feels to be

lied on.

And, you know, I apologize to you, Angela, on the sofa.

I understand.

Now I know that there was an allegiance.

I wasn't privy to that. So me walking into this group, I didn't know

were formed.

Alliance. By the way, why didn't y 'all include Angela? She was a newbie.

She wasn't young and fun enough.

I didn't know Angela, right?

Why weren't we invited for the alliance?

You and I did not create an alliance. I didn't know. I did not know that was

okay.

But what I'm saying is, Kelly, I didn't appreciate you not taking the

opportunity to get to know me. And I feel like you had this blind allegiance

with Britt to where no matter what she did, you were going to ride off into the

sunset with her.

Now, that's not true.

I felt like we had tried to get to know each other, but I felt like we could not

make that connection. I don't think that was from Britt.

Kelly, it was pretty dark when you and Britt saw each other at Phaedra's event.

And she brought up abortion.

How do you look back on that?

One, I always want to say that it's my body and it's my choice.

Yeah. That was never a conversation that I had ever had with Britt. That was a

conversation that was talked about in a kind of a manner that was private that

was repeated back to her.

I guess to try and hurt me in some way, form or fashion.

Who repeated it to her? It was definitely the stylist.

What was repeated wasn't truthful in regards to me having an abortion while I

was married. Okay. You know, I was pregnant with monochromatic twins, and

of my kids had osteogenesis imperfecta.

After that, I decided I don't want to have any more kids, and I got my tubes

tied directly after I had the twins.

So I would not be able to have a baby if I wanted to. I am raising four

beautiful black daughters.

All right. I have to have a conversation about what an abortion is, right?

That might not be a conversation I was ready to have with them. Have you had

that conversation with them?

Not yet.

Coming up next.

She's saying that because the husband is coming after her.

Right. But in reality, I've heard that the husband is not coming after her at

all. Like, she's probably just doing it for the show. Who told you that?

He did reach out to Ralph.

Oh, he did?

We are back.

Kelly, how does it feel to be legally free?

You are divorced.

I am officially divorced.

I'm so happy for you. Thank you. I'm so happy for me. All right. Now that it's

all done, can I ask how much in total you spent on the divorce?

I'm about $200 ,000.

Oh, you got out cheap.

Yeah, three years.

One year in. Do the ladies think it's strange that Kelly travels with a

bodyguard everywhere?

No, because we know the reason. Yeah.

Well, there's two different reasons.

Okay, now. Okay. What are the reasons?

What are they?

I don't know what's the two different reasons. Well, I mean, there's the...

is the act. Well, there's the one that the ex is after her. Okay. And what's

number two? In reality, I've heard that the husband is not coming after her at

all. Like, she's probably just doing it for the show.

In true Portia Fashion voice, who told you that?

Well, that's not the voice. Did Britt tell you that?

No, no, no. Britt didn't tell me that. Well, he did reach out to Ralph.

I just had the opportunity, the unique opportunity to run into Kelly's cousin.

And he told me how he ended up going and getting put in jail by Kelly.

So the thing with this is, let me address that. You can't just file a

restraining order because you're not getting along with the person. You have

have cause.

Is that true, attorney? Yeah, I know.

Okay, cause can be pretty much anything.

If that person does not come to court and bring a defense, they're usually

to be granted.

If you think that I would much rather be paying Kenny and not paying my bills,

everybody's fucking crazy at this point. I heard you had a bodyguard, too, some

of the time. Oh, that was... to keep everybody else safe

kelly we have been awaiting the

opening of the second location for nana's chicken and waffles where are you

the process i had a little lawsuit thing going on you owed a hundred thousand

dollars in unpaid rent interest and late charges yeah what's the status of that

they have received a good sum of money okay

And we should be opening very, very soon.

What was the holdup in paying the funds?

Oh, I just had $200 ,000 in attorney's fees. OK.

OK. Lisa from Boston has an interesting point. You seem to have a lot of

expenses from extravagant gifts for Chloe, a bodyguard, Cha -Cha's grooming.

Are these necessary expenses?

All of them are. Yes.

Painting the dog pink?

Absolutely. I mean. I need to identify my dog. She's only been stolen.

She lives the most fucking fabulous life ever in the world. She got a facial

massage. I mean, literally.

I think you should invest your money in the waffles and not the

dog. Oh, no.

Well, I mean, the waffles are good. Okay, good.

I'm just waiting for this location to open.

Oh, my God.

Joggers. Spring, summer? Is that where we're going? It'll definitely be summer.

OK. Shamia, your bond with Kelly was getting tighter while her friendship

Britt was crumbling. Did you stir the pot at all in that?

No, and I think that's unfortunate, because even at Vader's event, I was,

trying to understand what was happening and maybe mediate the two of them, and

then I called it straight. This is coming from a little bit of jealousy.

you feel like I'm taking your friend from you. Jealousy? Because of Portia?

No, because of Kelly.

You do talk shit about Portia.

Kelly, do you think you two will ever be friends again?

Um, no.

No, you don't.

between being there for her with the whole Kenya situation, making sure she

a team, you know, to look successful.

Is she successful after that? She looks successful. I think she looks

successful. I don't know if she is successful. I can't tell you that. Well,

your friendship, did you know, like, how she made her money and, like? No, I

didn't. I don't know where her money comes from. Oh. Yeah. You don't know,

I'm just letting you know. What kind of insurance, Andy?

Well, I mean, I'm just going. by what the people say. When I asked her, I got

trouble. Oh, OK.

All right. I tried to help. To answer the question, I just feel like nothing

been reciprocated between me and Britt. She did not show up for me when I needed

her the most. Oh, after your divorce.

Just in all aspects of my life. I mean, she didn't show up to court. She didn't

send a text message, a phone call. I mean, it's not equally yoked. You got

IV drip.

Depending on how you feel, those are the vitamins that I'm going to administer

to you guys.

Higher dehydrated stress.

And allergic to bum bitches.

Sending an IV specialist to come to your home for $1 ,000, I would expect a

thank you note. $1 ,000 for an IV? What else was in that drip, girl?

Three of us got IVs. I even got an IV for Mike.

Oh, that was nice. Give a hug. Okay,

we're going to take a break. We'll be right back.

Coming up next.

Did you want to take Angela down?

I just wanted to be secure.

I thought.

I don't have to secure my spot because, baby, I got a guarantee contract.

Can we give him a mic?

Mic set one, two, one, two. I'm here to just make it do what it do. Hey, it's

the 16th reunion.

Let's go. And we think to be weak.

I need a little boost.

Three, two.

Welcome back to the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion.

Well, Angela, as the wife of NBA legend Charles Oakley, you proved this season

that you're a MVP all on your own. And anyone who dared to come for your

or your family was definitely barking up the wrong oak.

Watch. You want some wine, babe?

Man, it should have sweet wine. Let's see, maybe overseas, out of the country

something. I'm married to NBA legend Charles Oakley. He's definitely a

shooter. I always feel like you don't think I need you to be just standing up

for me.

Now, I know you did it that time with Charles, and I'll stand up for you

Someone told me Charles Oakley was married. What? I'm not just saying

told you he married. You ain't never married.

No, I heard something about Charles. What did you hear about my husband?

Portia said, I should fuck Charles.

It was a stupid comment. I shouldn't have made it. Or maybe I should have. I

kicking with my friends. I definitely didn't know that Dumbo was up there with

her big old ears listening to everything.

I heard her husband had a baby on her. I walked to Wendy. I said, it's only a

baby. She was like, have you?

And I was like, yes, I have.

I was mentioning my daughter's father.

She, in turn, took it as though I said Charles.

Cheers. If your name is Angela, your husband, she loves you.

He was paid to be there.

By who?

I'm getting motherfucking ass out of here.

Wait a second.

No, he gotta go. Fuck this. Let him finish.

There's somebody in this circle of y 'all that is not happy with Angela.

Who is that?

Pedro.

OK, so, Angela, why were you certain that it was Phaedra that sent this man

the group?

First and foremost, he told me it was Phaedra. OK, this man who you've never

met. Never met. OK. Never met. He is from Athens, Georgia.

OK. And his aunt is a lady by the name of Kimberly.

I don't know, Kim.

This is a pattern.

What kind of pattern is it? A pattern of lying.

Of lying about what? Do you want me to show you? No, you can show me. Okay, let

me show you. Yeah, you can show me.

Yeah, so.

Oh, a folder. Come on, file folder. Yeah, but the whole file cabinet, child.

This is Marcus.

That's the guy.

This is his aunt Kimberly.

Okay.

Kimberly is friends with, is this your brother?

Is this your brother? That's my oldest brother, yeah.

So you all went to high school together?

So, there are only two high schools and three middle schools in Athens, Georgia.

Okay, so they went to high school together. So, how did that man come on

show and say that you were... And that's what I want to ask you, Phaedra. I

don't know that man.

He didn't just willingly give me your name.

He tried to put it on Kelly. Well, I heard that you coerced him to give my

Okay, if he tried to put it on the other women, then what makes you think he was

telling the truth about... He went to high school with her sister.

Really, Andy?

I'm from a family of four. Plenty of people can go to high school with some

my siblings.

That's just no coincidence, Phaedra. Did you have something against Angela? Of

course not. I just met her. Did you want to take Angela down?

Why would I want to? I don't even know her.

What it is is Phaedra is wanting to secure her spot.

I don't have to secure my spot because, baby, I got a guarantee contract.

Portia, what I found alarming about you is you are so eager to believe she's

telling the truth.

When everything you've been through with her, you said that you think I said

that. I'll tell you. Why would you say that?

Everybody's thinking this whole thing is so silly.

Nothing about the guy and what he was saying looked real. The junior, the

whoever he said. The issue was real and the person is real. But he's lying in

between trying to make it true.

Next week on the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion, today we got two

from Kenya and Britt.

So anything I need to know? You coming in here with some bombs today?

You said in the past that Kenya got the information from one of the cast

members. Who? She said that Ruth sent her some information.

Why are you fighting with me? Why are you fighting with me? Because you're

lying. And you don't think you've been lying too?
