This reunion started the way they all do, with the ladies walking in wigless and Andy's awkward hellos where we learned that Sheree is still not wearing She by Sheree after 10 years but is coming out with a jogger line in September/Summer/Spring. The fuck. I believe that it's coming out the same time that Tyrone is. Never.
We also got the tea on what we already knew, which was that Mrs Kenya Moore-Daly was expecting her first baby and she spilled the tea in the most confusing way. At this point she is fighting for her place on the show so Kenya has no time to fool around, just answer the fucking question Twirl. She didn't say when she is expecting or the sex, so you can bet that she will be Phaedra Parks 2.0 and all the ladies will want receipts that she is actually pregnant just like they did with her husband this year. However, I definitely think that Kenya is thirsty enough to fake a pregnancy to keep her peach.
Following the major announcement Andy dove straight into "the fun" portion of the reunion where they looked back on everyone's looks from the past ten years. NeNe has definitely had some of the worst wigs - and that was just season seven. We also got an entire package on how Kandi is the "People's Champ" which was major shade to Porsha. Miss Burruss really rebounded after last year's mess and came out a bigger winner than ever. Kandi had to rebuilt her brand, so Porsha should be able to handle a little shade when she gets it. The girls also went around in circles about Porsha's apologies but she just isn't genuine about it. If you are really sorry then you would say it until they forgive you, not until you get sick of saying it. I feel like everyone has forgotten that Porsha accused of Kandi of trying to drug and rape her. What the actual fuck?! That is major and I think it would take more than two weak "I'm sorries" and a bad hug to get over it.
After they talked about RapeGate for the 180th time, Marlotta joined the crew with her lavender loofah of a dress. Andy recapped that she went from being NeNe's friend, to Kenya's friend, to Sheree's friend, then back to NeNe's friend. Marlo can make up reasons why she was friends with each, but she needed a check and when she fell out with one she needed to be close with another so that she could keep doing her appearances on the show for the coin. Almost immediately Kenya and Marlo got into it, I love both girls but Miss Twirl was WINNING the shade war. In fact Kenya was the shade MVP of the entire reunion, here are just some of the gems that the newly pregnant housewife came out with:
“You sitting up there looking like James Amos in a wig”
“Maybe if you stopped fucking everyone else’s husband you can get one of our own”
“You’re a one pony trick, actually you’re just a trick”
“You’re the only woman I know with a square reader between your legs”
“Struggle face, shut the hell up”
“I would really prefer my man to have a piercing than handcuffs”
Kenya also came prepared with tea to spill about Marlo and claimed that after NeNe broke up with that sweaty, chubby, pizza guy, John, Marlo made him her sugar daddy and took screenshots of his sexts with NeNe and used them as blackmail, in exchange for $20,000. Miss Marlo is crafty but obviously not smart enough to not tell Kenya about her shady ways. It seems like everyone already knew about the blackmail but NeNe was over it. I still feel like there is something deeper there judging by everyone's hesitance to talk about and all the looks on their faces. I just wanna see the texts where NeNe was getting all sexy about it.
