Is it time for a RHOP recast?

Candiace Dillard Bassett isn’t happy with the drama unfolding on the current season of “Real Housewives of Potomac.” Her husband Chris Bassett is a hot topic for her costars. Already he’s been accused of making Gizelle Bryant feel uncomfortable at last season’s reunion. Plus, Ashley Darby has accused him of flirting with her friend and sending inappropriate DMs to other women. Chris denied doing everything he’s been accused of. And he and Candiace believe their marriage is being attacked by Ashley and Gizelle because they needed a juicy storyline.

This isn’t the first time that Gizelle and Ashley have been accused of attacking marriages. Karen Huger and Monique Samuels have both accused Gizelle of doing this. Ashley has also been critical of Karen’s marriage, as well as gossiped about Robyn Dixon’s relationship with Juan Dixon.

Interestingly enough, Monique actually said she left RHOP because she wanted to protect her marriage. On her way out, she spoke about her displeasure with the direction of the show. And she predicted that Wendy’s marriage would be the next target for Gizelle. The following season Gizelle theorized that cheating rumors about Eddie Osefo were behind her decision to get work done. Wendy went all the way off on Gizelle because she strongly believed that Gizelle only said this to highlight the rumor on the show.

Candiace has theorized that Ashley and Gizelle will do anything to have a storyline on RHOP. She has argued that there is more value in casting people who are willing to share their real-life stories versus casting people who manufacture drama.

At this point, Candiace even believes it’s time for a “Real Housewives of Potomac” recast.

In a tweet, she wrote, “This is embarrassing. This is your best work? It’s time to recast. #RHOP”

  1. And she’ll be one of the first to go if they ever recast. She’s really letting these new fans blow her head up not realizing how fickle they are.

  2. Reality stars will drag their own shows down with their ridiculous egos and hurt feelings. NeNe did it to RHOA, now Candiace is about to do it with RHOP. It’s so aggravating that this is starting to become a pattern for black ensemble reality shows. One thing I appreciate about Gizelle is she’s a much better sport and she’s not going to rally the troops when a season doesn’t go her way. She cares about the show too much for that.

  3. I am sick and tired of the Entire cast kissing Gizelle A**!

    The Women are giving “Weak” this season!!

  4. Candiace should be grateful she wasn’t recast for being homophobic and transphobic. She’s also said some pretty racist stuff and kept her job. So she has a lot of nerve this season writing tweets like this.

  5. Huh? RHOP has been one of the best shows on Bravo since Season 2 and the majority of the cast has been there since Season 1 because they made the show great. Candiace is really doing too much now. She doesn’t have to like Gizelle and Ashley, but they’re a huge reason why RHOP lasted this long. What annoys me is Candiace and fans think a show should be cast based on their likes and dislikes. It’s the recipe to a show’s decline.

    1. Gizelle gets so much hate but she’s been giving the fan favorites a storyline since 2. Ashley always comes to work as well. I peeped that a long time ago. No shade to Candiace, but she’d have nothing to offer this season if Ashley and Gizelle didn’t give her something to do. It’s a job at the end of the day. I’m not sure why Candiace doesn’t understand that when she’s been on RHOP since Season 3. She’s not wise in trying to push out two of the biggest contributors.

  6. Candiace is my girl but I want her to stop this. She’s riling people up to make Bravo do something that will ultimately hurt the entire show.

  7. Hunni….how can u call for a recast on a show u didn’t start?!?!… Make it make sense to me!!! Lil girl…u are NOT one of the ORIGINAL cast members of this show!! Now u doing too much Miss Ting!!!

  8. Candiace, Wendy and these fan pages are going to keep right on until they destroy this show. Now they already ruined basketball wives and atlanta housewives. Enough already! If you’re too sensitive to be in reality television or watch it, don’t sign up for it or watch so the rest of us can enjoy it in peace.

  9. I don’t fault Candiance Gezelle carry it too far. It just some lines you don’t cross. This is in a businessman world and working toward his goal. It just not right for someone to try and damage that like Gezelle trying to do. Then dried up Ashely put her too cent in on the lie. Just give Gezelle a man to make her happy so she has a story line and she force on

  10. Candice needs to stop ✋️. She has no problem when they do it to Karen, Ashley, or Mia. She had no problem sitting there help plan to do to Monique who was her friend. Or even when Giselle did it to Wendy last season, but now its a issue because it is her turn. Now that its her turn stop everything and let’s redo it. Nope,enjoy your turn at bat. Monique warned you and Wendy.

  11. LMAO @My 2 Cents…to much dip on your chip!! Ain’t nobody recasting nuthin cause the pendulum now swingin your way Crybaby Candy! Had nooo problem when they conspired about Moniques child. And on some post she said they coming for her children and her husband…ummm mam, I missed the episode where you have children. If she’s suggesting she’s so stressed she can’t complete the IVF then have your babies the old fashioned way. Not telling her what to do with her body but Boo you can’t blame nobody for your stress cause you could always leave RHOP and be stress free!!

  12. @SHAY SHAY!! Come on girl! I Love the way b the you reminded her of how she did Monique. Yeah.. that get back ain’t so sweet. I’m tired of her and that tissue anyway. She is so ratchet always talking about her black a** this and that. She really make her self look unprofessional.
