Drew believes Ralph is the real source behind the rumors about her.
The episode begins with Drew and Courtney’s argument wrapping up. Drew wants Courtney to never speak on her children again. But Courtney doesn’t back down. She accuses Drew of messing up her children by “slandering” Ralph. Kenya and Sanya tell Courtney she is out of line.
Ty Young is discussed again. Sheree passes out screenshots she says some “stranger” left at her door. Supposedly, Sheree was given photos of a text message conversation that took place between Drew and Ty.
Drew is confident that Ralph is the source.
Sheree and Kandi clash over Kandi’s status on RHOA.
Andy and Sanya discuss her traumatic miscarriage. She says she was grateful the ladies reached out but she was disappointed by Kenya not contacting her. They talked about having another baby. So Sanya just expected more. Kenya says she did call Sanya but she didn’t answer. Sanya goes on to say she wouldn’t lie about something like this. Regardless, Kenya apologizes. And Sanya says it just seems like Kenya isn’t a real friend. And she only does things to look good on camera.
After a fan questions why Sanya shaded Kenya after she raised money for her charity, Sanya doesn’t recall shading Kenya. But she believes she’s very fair. And she points out she called out Marlo for recording Drew without her knowledge. Kenya can’t recall this. Producers flashback to Sanya telling Marlo she was wrong.
Kandi and Sheree have another tense moment. Andy reads a question about Kandi thinking she’s “above everyone else.” Kandi why she doesn’t show her life much on the show. And perhaps Kandi should leave the show since she hasn’t been contributing much, in Sheree’s opinion. Kandi disagrees and reminds everyone that she has shared a lot. And she’s shown a lot of her family drama and business struggles. Kandi then says Sheree has been let go multiple times and returned. So she doesn’t understand why anyone questions why she has never missed a season.
Sheree responds to Kandi’s shade by saying she’s been asked back more times than she’s returned. And producers bring her back because Kandi is so lackluster.
Kandi and Marlo can be cordial…for now.
Marlo and Kandi discuss the tension they had over the shooting that took place at Blaze Steak & Seafood. Kandi still believes Marlo created an issue out of nothing due to jealousy. Marlo denies being jealous. She goes on say she prefers a “soft life.” Kandi works too much and takes care of way too many people for that to be an attractive lifestyle to her.
Regardless, both women agree they can be cordial around each other. They will agree to disagree.
Ralph is brought out to talk about the divorce drama. He says he still loves Drew and ultimately wants them to work on their marriage. However, they are currently going through the mediation process.
Drew tells Andy that Ralph has been a disrespectful husband since the beginning. She pulls out what she claims are inappropriate text messages between Ralph and another woman. Andy reads them and says the woman sent a picture of her bare behind. And she asked Ralph when he was going to bring her “that ****.”
Ralph says the next was just a “catfish.” He accuses Drew of slandering him on the show.
Kenya calls out Ralph.
They discuss Ralph’s trip to Vegas. He says Drew lied about him auditioning for a black “Magic Mike” type of production. Kandi says Drew didn’t lie because the person who was in charge of the production confirmed they were in talks with Ralph about auditioning.
Drew believes Ralph is the one slandering her. She goes on to say that Ralph is likely the person who gave Sheree her private text messages with Ty. But Ralph says Drew’s current assistant told him that she was having an affair with Ty. Marlo, Kenya, and Kandi say that the assistant did spread the gossip. However, Drew says Ralph started the rumor. And he even apologized to her in private for speaking to Mimi Faust.
At some point, Drew becomes emotional. Ralph then accuses her of just “acting” and Drew storms off of the stage in tears. Sanya follows to comfort her. Andy and Kenya apply some pressure to Ralph. Kenya tells Ralph that he is gaslighting Drew. And he was wrong to use Courtney to attack Drew. Ralph says Courtney is his “cousin” and she was just looking out for him. Kenya tells Ralph he doesn’t know Courtney. So he was wrong to side with her and not his wife. Andy tells Ralph that he hasn’t been supportive of Drew at all on camera.
Drew’s performance causes a lot of tension.
The most awkward moment of the episode is when Drew returns to the stage to perform her new song, “Throw Us Away.” Ralph looks irritated throughout the performance and everyone else is uncomfortable.
After the segment with Ralph concludes, Andy asks Sheree to tap into her OG abilities and say something positive to bring the group back together. Sheree says she loves all of the ladies. And she’s not giving up hope that they can all eventually be in a much better space next season.

I have to give all RESPECT to Kenya for having Drew’s back and holding Ralph feet to the fire white the other girls just sat there with smirks on their faces…. U can just look and list to Ralph and know he’s full of 💩 He’s definitely gaslighting Drew..u can tell he never values Drew’s feelings in the marriage….And to side with the so called “Cousin” to play in Drew’s face… he’s a total BAN!!! Once again,I give all RESPECT to Kenya!!
Ralph seems to be a very immature and childish man, I believe everything Drew said about him. I did not blame Drew’s sister for wanting to beat Courtney’s a-s, she had no business in Ralph’s dressing room, a married man interfering into his marriage.
Ralph is full of crap. After the years of his unexplainable behavior, his manhood is challenged because he thinks Drew is having an affair with a woman. All while he still couldn’t come up with a good excuse for his disappearing act, when he went out of town a couple of seasons ago. No husband behaves like that and surely do just up and go out of town without communicating with their spouse. So he doesn’t want done what he’s been doing, and he’s worried about his children.
Drew should realize that if her friends are saying that her assistant was spreading the rumor at least check it out. Sometimes the people you trust the most in your life will do you dirty. 💯 💯💯💯
All of it is sickening and disheartening!
1. Kandi – You are the biggest disappointment this season. You were a gas lighter! You came for Sheree’s business good or bad and she hit you back well. Now, you want to sue. Is it true? You’re a control freak and you want to do the doing like your mother and always win. You’ve got a good man and children. Focus on them and not on who Drew may or may not have kissed. Not everyone is as free as you are in their sexual stories.
2. Kenya – You’re a gem! You get the best season award. You maintained your cool until Marloooow continued to come at you. The bottomless b____ was the quote of the season. You’re spending a lot of time in raising our Miss beautiful Brooklyn Doris Daley. Whether her father chooses to be in her life or not, you’re doing a fantastic job. You will succeed in your business ventures because you are a businesswoman. Lastly, pay Marc Daley and be done. It may sting a little and it may hurt your budget but your peace of mind is worth more than he could ever get.
3. Drew – I’m wishing you healing. I do believe that Ralph has been an abuser since the beginning of your marriage but that’s who you fell in love with. You need to continue therapy to find out why. Stay close to your family and allow your sister to support you. Dr Ken appears to be awakening a lot of things in you. Ralph may or may not every change. RALPH IS AN ABUSER! He is emotionally unequipped to be what you need from a husband. I will say this about a woman who has been married to a narcissist like Ralph but now divorce. Unless Ralph is willing to go to therapy and get some help, you are doomed. I believe in the covenant of marriage but not to this degree. No one, absolutely no one can make a decision about your marriage. If you stay or if you go, that is your choice. Those who love you will support you no matter what. Courtney should be sued for what she said. She is a mentally disturbed woman who must not have ever been married to discuss someone’s marriage so openly. I don’t have any respect for her and she doesn’t deserve any respect. She is a sick woman.
4. Sanya – I believe that she should stay on the show because her and her husband can bring a lot to the show. For one, they are married! And, they are dealing with businesses, family and the everyday challenges of being who they are. I’m not fond of her being friends with Marlooow but maybe, she sees another side of Marloooow. What I will say is this, she better be very careful about what she shares with Marlooow because if she continues to disagree with some of what Marloooooow does, Marloooow will bite her and tell all of her business.
5. Sheree – Needs to keep her job. Her reaction to Kandi was epic. Kandi actually deserved what Sheree brought but you all should be better than that. So, now you’re even and now you should be able to move forward with respect of boundaries. Sheree, you need a real man and you need to stop being messy with Marloooow. Remember, Marlo came for you before and she will do it again. Pay your bills and keep your job so that you can keep your business.
6. Marlooooow – LEAVE PLEASE! YOU NEED PSYCHIATRIC HELP! A LIFE COACH MAY BE GOO FOR SOME BUT YOU ARE BEYOND A LIFE COACH. I DON’T TRUST YOU AND I NEVER WILL. YOU ARE TOO EMOTIONALLY IMMATURE! ALL THE FASHIONS IN THE WORLD WILL NOT MAKE YOU HAPPY ON THE INSIDE. GOOD LUCK!
KUDOS! to Kenya for stepping up & having Drew’s back despite their differences. You would’ve thought Sheree would jumped on the train especially since she knows first hand about being treated like crap in her marriage to Bob. What good is it being dubbed OG? Ralph was just sitting there with that “Sly as a Fox” look on his face & refused to own up to any of discomfort he has caused Drew. He won’t change, Drew needs to just move on for the sake of her sanity & het children! Courtney is so conniving I’m surprised she survived the season without being drug down the block. Heifer with the lopsided boobs BEGONE!
I’m looking forward to next season & the new additions! Hopefully, the production & writing will be BETTER!!!
They need to get rid of Marlo she doesn’t bring nothing to the show sheree you need to pay your bills and stop trying to be something that you’re not.
