Gizelle's Wendy accusations

Pop culture · Heat 1.9 / 10 · 2 shows · 41m airtime

On The Real Housewives of Potomac episode airing October 18, Gizelle Bryant told Tia that Wendy is a scammer and guilty, and Tia relayed the remarks to Wendy. Gizelle apologized to Wendy for calling her a scammer on What Happens Live. On camera, Wendy told Gizelle the word is culturally inappropriate because it is used against Nigerians, and Gizelle told Ashley that Robyn is not fooling with her, which Robyn neither confirmed nor denied. Robyn later edited the moment where Ashley mentioned the scammer remark out of her podcast. The discussion weighs whether the jab was payback for Wendy's past insults and whether Robyn's return explains the regression.
