The latest season of RHOP was very controversial for multiple reasons.
“Real Housewives of Potomac” fans had a lot to say about the most recent season. Candiace Dillard Bassett‘s feud with Gizelle Bryant took centerstage. The accusations Gizelle made about Chris Bassett resulted in their friendship falling apart swiftly. Although Gizelle did eventually apologize for misconstruing some of the comments made by Ashley Darby, Candiace wasn’t moved. She believes Gizelle lies about people for storyline purposes. And Candiace believes this makes Gizelle a very dangerous coworker. Plus, Candiace and Wendy Osefo also expressed that they feel there is a colorism issue at play. She accused Gizelle of using her “proximity to whiteness” to get away with making horrible accusations about people season after season.
Of course, Gizelle and Candiace’s issues weren’t the only controversies of the season. Mia Thornton received a lot of backlash on social media for assaulting Wendy. The two ladies clashed because Peter Thomas told Mia that Wendy stalled on their potential business deal. Wendy and Peter were in talks to open up a Nigerian lounge. At the time, Mia said that Peter was a good friend to her and Gordon Thornton. So she thought it would be loyal on her part to interject herself into his situation with Wendy.
Then there is Robyn Dixon and Juan Dixon’s controversial situation. As we reported, Robyn neglected to open up about a recent issue she and Juan dealt with. According to Robyn, Juan had been in contact with another woman. Although Robyn said it was innocent when Juan paid for the woman’s hotel room, most RHOP fans weren’t buying this.
Wendy Osefo is clashing with the new housewife?
Well, some were thinking that all of the drama would lead to a major cast shakeup for the upcoming season of “Real Housewives of Potomac.” But the only major change being reported is the addition of another Nigerian housewife, Nneka Ihim.
Blogger TV Deets broke the story about Nneka joining the show as a new full-time housewife. According to the publication, Nneka is an attorney from Boston who happens to be married to a doctor. She’s also the owner of a champagne line. And like Wendy, she has plenty of experience as a political commentator as well.
Since there are so many similarities between Wendy and Nneka, some fans figured that the newbie was brought into the group by Wendy. However, TV Deets is now reporting that Nneka and Wendy clashed at Karen Huger‘s event. And things got so messy that their husbands, Eddie Osefo and Dr. Ikenna Ihim got into it as well.

I really hope these producers didn’t bring in a new Nigerian housewife to discredit Wendy and Candiace’s valid feelings about colorism.
Here we go…smh.
I knew this would happen the moment they said she’s Ashley’s “friend.” I was so excited about another Nigerian joining RHOP. But she’ll just do Ashley and the GEBs dirty work.
So they brought another Nigerian and her husband on to take down Wendy and Eddie. But Gizelle’s punk a-s is sitting right there unchallenged yet again despite her being the dirtiest one there. This show is trash.
Bravo wants to fire Wendy without triggering social media backlash. Social media will claim that it’s colorism but Wendy does not add any value to the show and she should go, they shouldn’t have to sidestep like this, just let the girl go.
You’d think being Nigerian also they’d stick together….smh
Everyone just needs to GTFU..and stop acting like jealous a-s mean girls!!. Who’s to say that “all” Nigerians, stick together?!!. All Americans, don’t stick together!!.
Bravo created the monsters Wendy and Candice have become. They are not ready for prime time. Candice is a total embarrassment. Wendy is the typical African that tries to downplay African Americans. Send them home
Wendy and Candace need to go period I don’t care what color they r.
Just Go.
Gizzelle like her men dark chocolate and has brown children!
AMEN
Y’all really want the dark skinned women fired for the smallest things but swear it’s not a colorism problem. Meanwhile it’s crickets when the biracial/multiracial/light skinned girls are way more problematic. I hate it here. Black people have learned nothing from racism and it’s sad.
