The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 8 Episode 10 Recap: Family Feuds

On The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 8 Episode 10, family drama dominated as a series of feuds came to a head in the ATL.


Mama Joyce confronted Phaedra Parks, Porsha Williams confronted her sister, and Kenya Moore debated taking on her own mother …



When The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 8 Episode 10 kicked off, it looked as if Mama Joyce had finally accepted Todd Tucker.


Has a result, she’s been largely absent this season.


Well, if you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online, you know Kandi Burruss is beefing with Phaedra, and that calls for Mama J.


Following a “surprise” visit by her adversary’s maternal unit at work, Phaedra tried to downplay the entire feud as a big “misunderstanding.”


Mama Joyce, it turns out, actually came in peace – pot stirring peace as it might be – and even asked for Parks’ help party planning.


Kandi’s having baby shower, after all, and her mother’s primary concern is her health, not Phaedra or Todd or some exercise video.


Speaking of which, that was finally put to bed as well.


Putting her relationship with Kandi first, and for the sake of moving on, she pays Todd the $ 8,425 even though she hates doing it on principle.


Meanwhile, Kenya put together a family reunion with her dad in Detroit, and tried to connect with her mother as well. After 40 years.


After much buildup, her mom did not answer, literally.


“This is the last time I will extend myself,” Kenya said.


It’s truly sad. Finally, Porsha Williams was upset that her sister Lauren isn’t as involved with all her companies now that she’s pregnant.


Porsha, in typical Porsha fashion, went way overboard with her treatment of this issue and admitted later she was resentful. Ya think?


Her sister apparently keeping the pregnancy from her so long was the real trigger for Williams’ resentment, not her business ventures.


“It wasn’t that I didn’t feel the need,” Lauren told her sibling. “Given your situation, I felt like if I told you, you’d feel some kind of way.”


What kind of way? Porsha told the cameras herself:


“It’s like watching someone else live your dream.”


One can’t deny this about Porsha Williams: Bravo will never again think about knocking her down a peg to “friend” status at this rate.
