On the season finale of “Basketball Wives,” Brandi and Jackie put a pause on their explosive feud for charity. Plus, Brandi tells Jason she wants to separate. Here are the highlights of, “Sisterhood of the Traveling Drama.”
Brandi is fed up.
The episode begins at the conclusion of Brandi and Jackie’s major blowup. Security was able to prevent any violence from taking place. But the insults exchanged are still fresh on Brandi’s mind. She rages and throws things as she reflects on Jackie’s comments about her marriage.
Jackie and Cheyenne leave with Laura. So only Evelyn, Brooke, Jennifer, Jac’Eil, and Brandi remain. Brooke continues to yell about Cheyenne’s choice of outfit. She believes Cheyenne tried to jump in Brandi and Jackie’s confrontation. So she was ready to fight. Evelyn is emotional and disappointed that the group’s last dinner in Mexico was a disaster. They address this when Brandi returns to the table. She tearfully says it is so hurtful when people bring up her marriage during arguments. Evelyn looks on and becomes tearful herself. In a green screen interview, Evelyn says she regrets throwing Brandi’s marriage problems in her face because she didn’t understand Brandi was still in pain.
Brooke encourages Brandi not to let anyone’s comments on her marriage get to her because she doesn’t owe anyone anything.

Jackie and Brandi put aside their issues for an important cause.
Brandi is surprised to see Jackie show up at her charity event since they nearly came to blows the last time they saw each other. Before the incident, Jackie agreed to be the MC. Jackie apologizes for what happened. And she didn’t want their issues to get in the way of an important cause. She makes the very first donation and Brandi is grateful. Despite the drama in Mexico, Evelyn and Brooke admit they’re happy to see Jackie and Brandi move forward for charity. $5000 is raised in total to aid in helping children with heart problems.

Legal issues have complicated Jennifer’s wedding planning.
Jennifer accompanies Christian to visit his probation officer. The couple hopes he will be told he can get off probation soon. They are planning to marry in Paris. But that would be easier to do if Christian didn’t have to get permission from the probation office.
Jennifer waits in the car while Christian goes into the courthouse. The cameras aren’t allowed.
When Christian returns, he says his PO said he won’t be eligible to be off probation until the end of next year. The news is disappointing for Jennifer. She thinks it’s time to find a lawyer.

Jason and Brandi separate.
Brandi sits down with Jason after she’s had time to process everything that happened during the group’s time in Mexico. She tells him she wants to move to LA with their son. However, she doesn’t want Jason to follow. When Jason asks if Brandi is saying she wants a separation, Brandi says yes. She wants to focus on her acting career. Her new acting role gave her a lot of hope.
She breaks down in tears because she’s tired of arguing with the other women about Jason’s unfaithfulness. Now she wants to depend on herself.

I’m so confused. These woman try to act like they are so high class and balling. Gucci heels be $1200. So I’m confused why Brandi barely met her $5000 goal, when they could’ve wrote $1500-$5,000 a piece and have it as a tax write off at the end of the year. Another reason why you don’t believe everything you see on tv. I’m dying to know how much each person contributed. Jen stays in designer threads as most of them do. This is for charity. $5,000 goal seems like a low target any way. You have to rent the venue, etc,
I thought the same thing….
Get rid of Brandie and Jackie
Brandi has a pattern of taking her frustrations with her husband out on her coworkers. She is tired of them bringing up her marriage but she needs to stop speaking freely on their relationship choices when we all saw what Jason told Iyanla.
Jaceil is not needed.
Why you say that? She’s beautiful to look at. She practices what she preaches. She ain’t out here being bougie like the others. We need her in the mix! She brings the sanity.
This. All she does is follow Brooke and Evelyn. She’s so boring.
Get rid of Jackie…Her apologize is just words no action..If her apology meant anything she wouldn’t keep doing same thing
I really have nothing to say other than you have to do what’s best for who you are.
Jennifer and Christian’s scene seemed fake.
Jackie, Evelyn, and Cheyenne carried this season on their backs. Laura gave us great tv too in her few little scenes. I agree that Jac’Eil can go. She’s a boring follower. Brandi and Jackie are the more entertaining wives. Season was pretty good surprisingly.
I have no sympathy for Brandi. She literally picks a friend to antagonize whenever she’s unhappy in her marriage. Last time it was Malaysia, now this time it is Jackie. Laura read Brandi her rights and she was embarrassed and took it out on Jackie. She thinks she can talk trash about Jackie’s marriage but Jackie can’t say anything about hers. The whole group needs to stop the hypocrisy. None of them are saints. They all fake apologize and violate each other again because none of them are real friends. Heck Brooke and Evelyn just shaded Brandi’s marriage to her face two episodes ago. Brandi knows who to play with.
If you give people the ammunition to use they are going to load their guns, and shoot you with it. (Ammunition) allowing bad behavior with your spouse whether he or she said it wouldn’t happen again. It happens a second, third and fourth time and they keep putting up with it. So when people know your business like you know your business, it’s gonna come back and bite you sometimes.
Cheyenne did not try to jump Brandi. Brooke is so corny. She wouldn’t have this energy if OG and Tami were there.
I respect that Jackie still showed up to the charity event and was the first one to donate. Brandi needs to grow up. She doesn’t know how to accept apologies and move on. Did the same mess to Malaysia and Duffey.
