Monique Samuels isn’t missed.
Monique Samuels said she wouldn’t return to “Real Housewives of Potomac” after the reunion aired in full. She took issue with the editing. And she felt like she and her husband Chris Samuels weren’t treated fairly. So she didn’t see how she could stay on a show if it seemed as those in power didn’t care for her. Plus, she did start to feel as if Gizelle Bryant received special treatment from those in charge.
Gizelle thinks Monique’s departure was good for the show and makes it possible for it to move forward after the physical altercation. Robyn Dixon agrees.
During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Robyn said, “To be honest, we do not utter Monique’s name, not one time, so to say that she wasn’t missed was kind of an understatement. That’s no knock to her, it’s just we as grown women chose to move forward and not dwell in the past.”
Robyn also said that the great thing about newbie Mia Thornton is she wasn’t interested in bringing up the past incident either. So it made it possible for everyone to move on, “So to say that Monique wasn’t missed, that’s an understatement. I’m not trying to be mean, we just had to move on and try to move forward.”
As for Gizelle, she’s Team Mia as well, “This girl is like an open book. She shared so much about herself in probably my first couple times of meeting her. I know more about her than I ever knew about Monique in years.”
In related news, Monique recently revealed her beloved bird T’Challa passed away.
