In Part 2 of the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” reunion, Shamea and Porsha’s friendship continues to spiral. Here are the highlights.
Does Porsha give Phaedra more grace than Shamea?
Shamea and Porsha’s friendship is discussed. Andy reads a question from a fan of the show. The person questions why Porsha appeared to give more grace to Phaedra than Shamea, considering what Phaedra did the last time she was on RHOA.
Porsha answers that she and Phaedra just needed some time before having the necessary conversation to rebuild their friendship. She thinks the same can happen with Shamea.
Another fan questions if Shamea thinks Porsha gives Phaedra a pass too easily, considering Porsha didn’t defend Shamea when Phaedra made controversial accusations about Shamea years ago. The last part of the question asks if Shamea is still bothered by what happened because it appears that way.
Shamea says she never had a sit-down with Porsha and Phaedra about it. Porsha then says that she and Shamea talked about this years ago. She was under the impression that they had resolved the issue and moved past it.
Phaedra tells Shamea it was hurtful to see Shamea come for her about this in recent interviews because they were in a good place.
Phaedra apologizes to Shamea.
Shamea says Phaedra didn’t address the accusations made about her specifically; she only said she did what she did because she was at odds with Kandi.
Andy asks Shamea if she is still upset about it, and Shamea claims she moved on. Cynthia and Angela strongly disagree and say Shamea brought this up to them at Porsha’s Pampered by Porsha event. So she is not over it.
Cynthia tells Shamea it’s okay if she’s not over it.
Phaedra apologizes and hopes they can really move forward this time. Shamea accepts the apology and says she will not call out Phaedra in interviews anymore.
Cynthia doesn’t regret how she handled Kenya and Brit’s fallout.
Kenya and Brit’s controversial fallout is up next for discussion. Andy reads the statements both released on their social media accounts. Kenya took accountability for her actions and apologized to Brit. Brit said she was seeking accountability, and the photo shown was not her.
Shamea wonders if Brit knew she wasn’t in that photo the entire time.
Andy brings up what Brit said when she appeared on WWHL. She insisted that Kenya had been trying to come for her repeatedly before the drama that took place at Kenya’s hair salon.
No one from the cast agrees with Brit’s perspective.
Andy reads another question written by a fan. The person asks Cynthia why she had more grace for Brit than Kenya. She denies this was the case. Despite the backlash, she doesn’t regret her actions.
Kenya no longer speaks to Cynthia.
He moves on to Porsha, asking her what she thinks about what went down between Brit and Kenya.
She says another cast member gave Kenya some info on Brit to use. When Shamea asks who, Porsha says it was Drew. Drew says she doesn’t like that her name has been dragged into this. But Kenya publicly clarified that she did not get anything from her so she doesn’t understand why Porsha is saying this now.
Cynthia says the saddest thing about it is the situation is why Kenya no longer speaks to her. Kenya won’t answer her calls and it seems like she’s the only person Kenya doesn’t talk to.
Brit’s criticism of Shamea’s parenting is the next topic. Shamea breaks down in tears and says it hurt her when Brit accused her of lying about her daughter’s health problems for sympathy and a storyline. Luckily, Shiloh is doing much better these days.
Andy reads another question from a fan of the show. The person asks why Shamea keeps shading Drew’s music career. Shamea says she would never downplay Drew’s talent. After a little back and forth, Drew challenges Shamea to prove she’s a compulsive liar. Shamea brings out a fake purse and claims Drew lied about wearing a designer bag recently. Drew insists her bag is real and she will post proof on social media later.
Porsha believes Shamea has been on a smear campaign.
Andy flat-out asks Shamea and Porsha where their friendship currently stands, and both reluctantly confirm that they don’t communicate.
Porsha believes Shamea has been on a smear campaign to make her look bad. She points out that Shamea has been harping on her not attending a wedding, but Shamea didn’t have her back when Kandi’s friends were coming for her.
Shamea brings up that Porsha said this season she missed the wedding because they were beefing back then.
Porsha thinks it was foul for Shamea to bring all this back up when they have been solid. She also says Shamea was not truthful when she said Porsha was included in her alliance with Kelli and Brit.
When Shamea says Porsha was in the alliance, Porsha questions how this could be true if Kelli came for her throughout the season and she didn’t know Brit like that. Shamea then says she never used the word alliance. This turns into an argument no one can understand, so Andy steps in to get the segment back on track.
Andy wants to know why Porsha and Shamea’s mothers fell out.
He reminds Shamea that she said she was open to fixing things with Porsha if she made the first move. Porsha appeared to do that when she publicly wished Shamea a happy birthday.
Shamea says that was sweet, and she texted Porsha back. In response, Porsha says Shamea then went on to continue her smear campaign right after that happened. Porsha questions why Shamea is fighting with her, and Shamea poses the same question. For Porsha, it’s about getting to the truth. Shamea says Porsha crossed the line by coming for her mother on Instagram.
Porsha claims Shamea’s mother double crossed her mother. When Andy asks what happened between them, the episode ends on a cliffhanger.
What are your thoughts on part 2 of the reunion?
In related news, Porsha and Shamea have been going back and forth on Instagram today. Porsha posted in response to missing Shamea’s wedding and pointed out that she was there for everything else, including what she felt was another wedding. She also showed that she did more than just call to congratulate Shamea on her peach; she sent flowers and congratulated her in a social media post.
Shamea responded by saying she had one wedding, and Porsha did not attend. She still feels the flowers were for her birthday and not her peach.
