Gizelle Bryant Explains Why She Believes Monique Samuels May Be Jealous Of Candiace Dillard Basset; Says “I Feel Like Monique Has Always Had Some Issues With Candiace”

Gizelle Bryant shares her thoughts on the feud between her Real Housewives of Potomac co-stars Candiace Dillard Bassett and Monique Samuels and believes there's more to it aside from their physical altercation.

“My thoughts are that the altercation had zero, zero to do with Charrisse [Jackson-Jordan], and what Charrisse was saying and the rumors and all that. It had nothing to do with that,” Bryant said during an appearance on the Behind the Velvet Rope With David Yontef podcast, according to a report by Reality Tea.

“To this day, my thoughts are that it was the silliest, most unnecessary, altercation under the sun. I feel like Monique has always had some issue with Candiace, that she’s never kind of expressed, maybe it’s jealousy.”

As to why Gizelle believes Monique is jealous of Candiace? “Candiace came around, and love her or hate her, Candiace is Candiace. You know, she’s got a slick mouth. She is annoying, but we like her because she decides to show up in her own skin, with all of her antics. And I think maybe Monique doesn’t like that. I don’t know.”

“I felt like it should have never happened,” Gizelle said about the fight between Monique and Candiace.

She added, “I’ve been here since day one. I don’t want to see this show turn into something that we aren’t. We aren’t women that go around and knock each other upside the head.”
