RHOA Recap: Drew & Ralph Grow Further Apart

Photo Credit: Bravo

Ralph and Drew continue to have tension. 

Drew and her sister Allison are putting together a mental health retreat. It’s important to Drew because she doesn’t think the black community talks about mental health enough. She jokes around about being disappointed after she discovers they won’t be consuming any liquor. 

Sanya surprises Ross with a positive pregnancy test. He’s overjoyed by the news. They waste no time telling Sanya’s sister and parents. And they do so by wearing sweatshirts that say “We’re” and “Pregnant.” The family chuckles a bit because they didn’t have the words in the right order at first. Regardless, everyone is excited about the baby on the way. 

Drew tells Ralph it bothered her that he quit going to marriage therapy. But he says he’s still been doing much better and he just didn’t feel like therapy was all that helpful. And at times, they just argued because of something said by the therapist. Drew then tells Ralph that she realizes she can’t change him and she’s not going to mother him. So it’s up to him to step up and do his part. 

Marc won’t keep Kenya from having another baby. 

Kenya invites Kandi and Shamea over to catch up. She confirms she has two frozen embryos left and she’s considering using a surrogate. Since Shamea is using Kandi’s former surrogate, both women encourage her to move forward. And Kenya isn’t going to let her drama with Marc keep her from using them although he would be the child’s father. 

Sheree’s relationship with Martell is discussed. Shamea and Kenya allege Martell didn’t want to pay for Sheree’s recent birthday dinner which cost $1500. So he asked all of her guests to cash app and pitch in. 

Meanwhile, Sheree has nothing but praise for Martell. In a green screen interview, she claims Martell bought her an Alexander McQueen bag for a birthday gift. And she thinks he’s the “ideal partner.” 

Drew breaks down the lawsuit. 

Monyetta, Shamea, and Drew attend Kandi and Todd’s script reading session for his movie, “The Hall Pass.” It goes over smoothly since Kandi and Drew have decided to move on from their blowup over an alleged kiss. 

It’s the day of Drew and Allison’s mental health retreat. Sanya, Kenya, Cynthia, Marlo, Sheree, Kandi, and Courtney attend. The girls notice Ralph hugged and greeted Drew last after he made it. In a green screen interview, Drew says Ralph was just being petty because they haven’t been getting along. And he probably thought she was being shady when she hugged Ross before attempting to hug him. However, she wasn’t being spiteful. And she only hugged Ross because he was directly in front of her. 

When the ladies are having a bite to eat, Sheree asks Drew if there’s been an update regarding her legal battle. Drew says it will take 30 days for things to be over. And the issue is a woman came over to apply for a chef job. However, they found hair in the food tasting. So they decided not to select her. And when they allowed her to apply for a nanny position, she had no interest in their kids. After they told her she just wasn’t the right fit, she then contacted them saying they owe her $1000. And she allegedly upped the amount to $10,000 for no reason. 

Therapy has been working for Drew. 

Monyetta then brings up the conversation Courtney had with Sanya, Sheree, and Marlo while they were in Portugal. She alleges that Courtney called Drew a ***** when she wasn’t around. Courtney denies this and producers show footage of her using the word. Regardless, she goes on to say she would never call Drew that. 

After the mental health retreat is a success, Drew has an update for her therapist. She isn’t sure what is going to happen with her marriage. But she is no longer going to allow Ralph to gaslight her.

  1. I can sympathize with Drew with how Ralph is treating her. You love a man so much that he totally ignores your feelings. Not good like he doesn’t care. Sad

  2. Make it all disappear!

    Sorry ladies but Bravo needs to do an overhaul and bring in all new characters. You have allowed others to bring down your show. Today, I could care less whether I see the show or not and I haven’t missed a show since its debut.

  3. Anyone else notice how badly everyone is treating Drew with the exception of Sanya? They are definitely giving her the Porsha treatment and I don’t like it when they gang up on one person like this. All we hear about is how much Drew lies but Sheree is sitting right there. Why don’t they keep the same energy with Sheree when she lies as much as she breathes?

    1. You tell it. Sheree is full of crap with her community property of a man she has. Couldn’t even cover her dinner party. Embarrassing. You as a man going to ask her friends to electronically send you money to cover the cost of dinner. It’s a whole new ball game out here. I know he really miss his wife. Mel is out here shining and living her best life collecting them coins . The grass not greener Martell. Shelter is still going to be single and miserable. You can tell, just the way Tyrone played her. Her karma for being the way she is.
