In the season premiere of RHOP, Karen and Robyn return. Plus, Tia and Gizelle’s friendship is tested when Tia’s husband is found on a dating app. Here are the highlights for “Read Between the Lies.”
Karen is back.
The episode begins with Gizelle, Karen, and Ashley catching up at a restaurant. In a confessional, Karen admits that Gizelle has been a good friend to her during her difficult time. She appreciates this a lot.
Karen is still in therapy to deal with her addiction issues.
Ashley confirms she is still dating Josh. This results in Gizelle and Karen laughing.
Stacey tells Tia what she knows.
Meanwhile, Wendy attempts to get Tia and Stacey to move on from their issues. Tia apologizes for saying that Stacey married up.
Wendy says Tia and Stacey are the only two women in the group who have shown support as she goes through her legal issues. And she won’t forget how messy Ashley was. Tia says she thought she was good with Ashley until she saw her “salivating” over rumors about her husband, Rob.
Stacey says she knows what rumor Ashley was referring to because someone messaged her and said that Tia’s husband is on dating apps, and she received pictures of him presenting himself as single on these apps.
Wendy and Eddie talk about the state of their marriage. The insurance fraud case has been a lot for them. Wendy admits there have been moments when she didn’t want to speak to Eddie. It is imperative that they “remember the love and not the hurt.”
Courtney is introduced to the show. She is married to Alexis Ajinca. He is a coach for the Washington Wizards.
Robyn returns. Wendy and Robyn exchange pleasantries and shade. Karen can’t guarantee that she won’t refer to Robyn as “Robert.”
Gizelle and Tia’s friendship is tested.
Wendy and Tia confront Ashley about her comments about Rob. Ashley denies taking pleasure in gossiping about Rob. She claims she was angry when she was told he was on dating apps. Neither Wendy nor Tia are buying this. They believe Ashley takes joy in other people’s problems.
Gizelle eventually admits that she was the one who brought the rumor to Ashley, and this shocks Tia, who then questions why Gizelle didn’t come to her first if they are friends.
Gizelle claims she didn’t know if the photos were fake, so she went to Ashley.
After Gizelle says that she and Robyn won’t be discussing Tia’s marriage on their podcast, Wendy says that Gizelle wouldn’t discuss Robyn’s legal issues had she been in Wendy’s shoes.
Gizelle apologizes to Tia on her way out, and Tia tells Wendy and Stacey that Rob admitted he was on dating apps.
