The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 14 Recap: The End of the Line
The Potomac housewives have proven on several occasions that they can be a toxic bunch, but nothing could prepare viewers for the crazy drama that ensued when one a new cheating allegation emerged.
When The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 14 got underway, the husbands made their way to the stage, and things got strained pretty quickly.
Karen’s husband Ray was quizzed about their move from Potomac. If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will know that everyone has been questioning the move.
The couple then went after Charrisse for making comments about their finances. In case you missed it: Charrisse wanted everyone to think the couple’s finances were in dire straits.
Charrisse then made everyone laugh when she called Ray “The Broke Bill Gates.” Say what you want about Charrisse, but there’s no denying she is one of the wittiest women in reality TV.
We then switched gears to Juan talking about wanting a life away from Robyn. This was the moment we’d been waiting for all season long. He failed to reveal whether there was a future for him and Robyn.
Instead, he tried to dodge the question and looked shady in the process. The ladies revealed they were not impressed with the way Juan spoke about the relationship.
They felt like he was messing with her emotions, and that’s not a good thing to be doing the person you are supposed to love the most.
Another marriage was on the rocks, and we got the revelation that Ashley and Michael had been living apart for three months. The ladies picked up on Ashley trashing the other marriages, yet hers was falling apart.
Ashley revealed that she had moved out of the house, but was adamant about finding her way back to Michael. However, he seemed to care more about them staying apart.
The attention then switched to Charrisse, who revealed that Eddie was dating another woman and their marriage is over. Charrisse seemed more concerned with being named “The Grand Dame of Potomac.”
Charrisse then shocked everyone by saying that Karen had a secret boyfriend and was lying about everything. We then hear the man was a security guard at her party, but she did not confirm the rumors.
In the end, the ladies were divided, but they stressed that they wanted to work on things as they should be more unified as the Real Housewives of Potomac.
What do you think they will do?
Are you returning for Season 3?

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 13 Recap: Making Waves
After a thrilling season of shade, the ladies took to the stage with Andy Cohen to open up about all of the crazy developments.
On The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 13, Robyn went to war with Ashley over Juan’s cheating allegations, while Gizelle and Monique bickered about their various feuds.
When the episode got underway, Karen made her way to the hot seat and was put on blast for the way she was hiding things about her relocation.
All the other ladies could do was speculate about the move. Some of them questioned whether her finances were in dire straits, or if her marriage was on the rocks.
Karen continued to say that the move was due to her sick parents, but nobody was buying it. Gizelle then took aim at her for ditching the girls when the cameras were off.
She was also put on blast for having plastic surgery while the cameras were off. If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will know that it would have served as a solid storyline.
When Karen realized she could not admit to her lies, she targeted Charrisse to try and turn the tables. Pathetic? Yes, but it was a good way to change the tide.
Luckily, everyone spoke about Gizelle’s love life, and it paved the way for another argument between her and Monique.
Monique seemed over all the drama, so Charrisse chimed in with her thoughts on all the arguing, prompting Gizelle to target her.
We then switched gears to what was going down with Robyn and Juan. Robyn revealed they are still trying to keep their relationship together.
Ashley then defended her claim that Juan was seeing other women behind her back and that she needed to pull her head out of the clouds and move on.
Robyn then yelled that she would be just fine without a man in her life. Yeah, you go, Robyn.
When it came to Gizelle’s thoughts on the BBQ, the other ladies targeted Monique, with Robyn saying Monique persistently ran her mouth and felt like there should be no consequences.
Ashley then thought it would be fun to bring up the comments Juan made about his life with Robyn, and the feud went nuclear.
Ashley, however, made it her mission to let Robyn know her own marriage was fine, but something tells us she’s talking smack.
Michael seemed like he wanted to run away after the restaurant failed.
We have one more reunion episode left, but how will it all play out?

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 12 Recap: Home Is Where The Truth Is
Why did Karen make her way out of Potomac?
That was a huge question on The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 12, as the ladies questioned whether there was an ulterior motive for her exit.
When the episode got underway, the ladies wondered what Karen’s motives were for the random move, but all she could muster in reply was:
“I just want to do me.” Yes, just you keep telling yourself that.
While the other ladies probed for answers, Karen asked her friends just to be happy for her and move on from asking at every opportunity.
She then dropped the bomb that she was planning a party in her new home but stressed she did not think she would be inviting her fellow cast members because, well, they’re not entirely supportive of her.
Ashley then proved she was rather despicable by trying to be nice to get on the guest list. Her reason for asking about the move was that she knew the least about it.
Um, alright then.
Meanwhile, Juan was gearing up for a new job, and his wife did not seem to think he was up to the challenge. It was a coaching position on the women’s side.
If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will know that the pair has been on the rocks for quite some time and are probably going to be finished soon.
Robyn already knew this, and that’s why she made it her mission to let Juan know she received a lot of attention from the men of Bermuda.
She then opened up about visiting the therapist and the news that she was to go on a date with another man. Juan’s reaction was less than pleasant when he heard she was taking advice from her friends.
Robyn then revealed that she does not want to be with anyone else and would be happy with Juan if he managed to give her some more time.
They ultimately decided it would be a good idea to stay together for six months and if things had improved, they would stay together. If not, well, you get the picture.
Elsewhere, Monique and her husband officially became Potomac homeowners, and Ashley, Karen, and Charrisse stopped by to check on the home.
Karen subsequently invited all of the women to her high-class party, proving she was talking crap earlier in the episode. The ladies wondered why Karen moved away, but her new home was huge.
All seemed right at the end of the episode, with the only shocker being the state of Ashley and Michael’s relationship.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 11 Recap: The Grand Dame Shame
Did the ladies finally manage to cut the feuding out and enjoy the rest of their lavish trip to Bermuda?
That was their plan on The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 11 as their trip came to a conclusion.
When the episode got underway, Robyn was talking to Ashley and Charisse about how her feelings towards Karen. All three women agreed that she needed to take a chill pill and stop making everything about her.
Charisse decided to take the ladies on a cruise to the high seas. Not everyone was impressed with it because there would be nowhere to run if they started bickering…
… Unless they decided to start throwing one another off the boat. Now that would make for an exciting series.
Karen was shocked to learn that Gizelle and Monique were getting along swimmingly. If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will already know that both women had been feuding for weeks on end.
It is refreshing to witness some tranquility amongst the ladies, but we’ll take it when we get it. That tranquility did not last very long.
Charisse decided it would be a good idea to target Karen for leaving some of the ladies out of her trip. Karen offered a lame apology that made the women cringe.
When the going got tough, most of the women sided with Charisse because they agreed it was not a good idea to have some of them iced out of the trip.
When the ladies start bickering about net worth, Karen felt like it was best to bite the bullet and make everything right. This was the push they needed to make everything right.
When the ladies returned home, Robyn went to visit her therapist to keep them up to speed on what happened on the trip. She was glad that she had finally taken some steps to move on.
She even went as far as saying she was ready to divorce Juan. This proved she was ready to go back into the dating pool.
While that was going down, Ashley was shocked to the core to learn that she had been demoted in the restaurant. This put more strain on her marriage with Michael since he was the one who made the decision.
When all that drama was out of the way, the ladies formed a united front to attend Charisse’s unveiling of her celebration room. The women quickly realized that Karen no longer lived in the zip code.
The women then questioned whether Karen was moving because of her financial situation. The women were quick to point out that she was no longer the Grand Dame.
Karen exploded in a fit of rage at Ashley for gossiping about her, and the episode concluded. Something tells us this feud is going to get crazy.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 10 Recap: The Bermuda Triangle
What do you do when your friends can’t get along? Plan a vacation, of course!
On The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 9, the ladies attempted to put their many feuds aside. In true reality TV show fashion, it did not work and actually made things worse.
When the episode got underway, the ladies were packing their most expensive belongings to show off their wealth and good looks. Gizelle was quick to point out that she was unsure about the trip because Monique was going to be there.
If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will already know that Gizelle has been the one keeping the feud going. Monique has been vocal about ending it, but Gizelle likes some drama. Maybe she knows it will get her more air time. Isn’t that what all of these shows are about?
Charrisse claimed that the trip should be all about her because it was her birthday. This was not met with the best response from the others, who looked like they wanted to ban her from getting on the flight.
It was also her wedding anniversary, but her husband could not be bothered texting her back. This is probably down to the fact that they hate each other.
Karen then decided she was not going to let Charrisse make the trip about her and said it should be about her instead. Oh, the drama.
While all of this was going down, Gizelle and Monique tried to stay away from each other. They knew there would be hair pulling if they shared a glance.
When the ladies finally arrived in Bermuda, Karen gave them all a gift. This got under Charrisse’s skin because she felt like Karen was trying to upstage her.
Monique decided it would be a good idea to go after Karen and have her explain why it could not have been a joint effort between them. Gizelle chimed in, causing another argument between everyone.
Robyn stole the show, however, announcing she was ready to move on from Juan. The ladies gasped, clearly shocked to learn that their friend was finally moving on with her life.
Karen later made a plan to get Monique and Gizelle to work out their issues. They both agreed that they started off on the wrong foot, but this is not to say they are friends again, either.
During the sailing excursion, there was a surprising sense of tranquility, with all of the ladies joking around and laughing.
After the excursion, Gizelle and Monique teamed up to take Karen down for the way she was acting with Charrisse. Surprisingly, Karen agreed.
On a more awkward note, Ashley, Robyn, and Charrisse were not invited on the excursion, and that paved the way for the birth of another feud.
Yes, these ladies will never get along.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 9 Recap: Did Gizelle Apologize?
Gizelle was not impressed by the way Monique handled her lake house party, but could anyone really blame Monique for icing her out?
Gizelle has been so hostile to Monique ever since she joined the series and it’s been awful to watch. On The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 9, the communication between the women only got worse.
When the episode got underway, the ladies had lunch, while rehashing the events of the season thus far. Gizelle made it her mission to drag Monique’s name through the mud.
The other ladies looked on in shock at the way she was acting, but there was nothing they could do to shut her up. Gizelle prides herself in being the Ice Queen of the group.
While Monique was focusing her efforts on her latest luxury party, Charrisse and Karen continued to chat about the idea of having all of the ladies hit up Bermuda.
They got a lot of time to talk about it because they were stuck in traffic as they made their way to the party. Monique was pissed because the caterer was also running late, so it was not the best day.
The party went off without a hitch, and that’s because Gizelle was nowhere in sight. That woman has got to be one of the biggest troublemakers in reality TV.
Anyway.
Charrisse and Karen struggled to stay friendly when they bickered over which one of them came up with the trip to Bermuda. It was sad, pointless argument that proved these ladies could argue with the furniture if they were alone.
When the bickering continued, each lady decided it would be best if they each got to plan one day of the trip. It was surprisingly mature. Maybe they could all make friends in the future.
Meanwhile, Robyn was still trying to make sense of her failing relationship with Juan. She made her way to a therapist for some guidance.
The therapist was surprisingly direct about the way things were going in Robyn’s life and told her she needed to love herself, or she would never find a healthy relationship.
This made Robyn realize that she could move on from Juan and find someone else to love. However, this is Robyn, and she changes her mind as often as Gizelle storms out of a room in a fit of rage.
Robyn was not the only one having relationship woes. Ashley was trying to juggle her relationship and her failing restaurant. She decided to have a party and invited critics along to sample the new menu.
It received roaring reviews from the critics, something that made her very happy. While that went well, she and Michael struggled to have a conversation.
The two went on a pottery course together and confessed their love to one another, but Ashley was adamant about not having children. This irked Michael and may have put their relationship woes back to square one.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 8 Recap: Did Ashley Save Her Restaurant?
Admitting defeat is never the easiest option for anyone, and Ashley Darby is learning that the hard way with her floundering restaurant.
On The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 8, Ashley tried to make some changes to the restaurant, but Michael was not impressed with these and made it known.
Let’s just get this out of the way: “War of the Darbys” was an apt title for this episode. Finally, after all this time, we got confirmation that things between Ashley and Michael were just not right.
It resulted in the best episode of the series yet and gave me hope that this iteration of the franchise had a pulse.
When the episode got underway, Ashley and Michael were still bickering over whether to close the restaurant down and cut their losses.
With Ashley against the idea of giving up, presumably because it is all being televised, she tried to think of ways to bring her restaurant back from the brink.
She decided to cancel the Australian aspect of the menu, which did not go down well with Michael. The reason? He only invested in the first place because of the Australian part.
Ashley opted to have her fellow housewives sample the new menu to give her feedback on what was working. With the tension rising, Ashley got on the phone and started bickering with Michael once again.
Ashley felt like it was time to separate if he did not support her, but this threat did not go down well with Michael. Why the heck would it? Ashley has been doing things without consulting her husband and business partner.
Monique stayed away from the drama and attended the rebrand of the restaurant with her husband. The other women, however, picked up on all of the tension.
They knew fine well the restaurant was failing and wanted to make sure she was okay. Surprisingly, Ashley made her way to Monique and asked for assistance with her marriage.
Ashley subsequently declared that she would not hesitate to leave Michael if he did not change his stance on her meddling ways.
Um, alright then.
Elsewhere, Monique and Karen went on a trip to a golf course, and it allowed them to chat about what went down at Karen’s speech.
Monique felt iced out by Gizelle because she tried to play nice with her. As expected, Gizelle ditched her and did not want to include her in any social gathering.
Later, Karen and Gizelle went on a double date. Karen’s husband basically told Gizelle she was getting too old, so she should settle for her date.
Gizelle looked pissed, but it seemed like she got the message loud and clear. She decided to wear leopard out on the date, and something must have gone right because she was all smiles.
Now, we’re leaving the stars in an exciting place. There are a lot of questions up in the air. Will the ladies be able to play nice? Will Ashley and Michael split?

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 7 Recap: Karen"s Revelation
The ladies continued to bicker over past arguments on The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 7, and it made for another fun, but predictable episode.
With revelations being revealed about the ladies left, right and center, it was only a matter of time before someone went too far.
When the episode got underway, Karen opened up about an ordeal she went through when she was younger. She revealed that she was raped, and was set to speak at a foundation benefiting rape victims.
Karen felt like it would be a good way to open up about her thoughts about the traumatic event because she never opened up about it all those years ago.
She wants her story to help young girls and women who went through something similar. The great thing about this reveal was that it brought all of the women together.
They’ve been at odds for the better part of the season, so it’s great to see them play nice. It just sucks that it takes something like this to bring them together.
The ladies sat listening to Karen’s emotional and empowering speech about her ordeal, and it was heartwarming to see everyone so close together.
After this, it was revealed that Robyn was still unimpressed by the interest her friends were taking in her relationship with Juan. She was shocked at the way Gizelle and Charrisse acted but commended them for handling it better in a one-to-one situation.
Ashley, however, was not getting off lightly and Robyn and Gizelle thought it would be a good idea to go to her place of work and start all of the drama up again.
The argument was a bit of a dud. Ashley did not back down and even managed to get the upper hand by throwing both women out of her place of work.
Things got totally awkward when a microphone picked up a conversation between Juan and one of the producers. He was claiming he was “fed up” of Robyn and the way she acted.
He then said he would have ditched Robyn a long time ago if it was not for their children. Yikes. Poor Robyn did not hear any of it and continued with her day-to-day life.
Charrisse then took her to a therapy session, in which Robyn broke down into floods of tears when she was probed for answers.
Was this the best way to force her to the realization that her marriage was in tatters? Nope. Did it make for heartbreaking TV? Yes.
Elsewhere, Charrisse was forced to open up to her daughter about her looming divorce to Eddie. Her daughter did not seem to be amused, but her mother felt like it was time.
At Karen’s event, only Monique was civil to Ashley. All of the other women were still pissed at the way she had acted before.
Monique tried to use this as an opportunity to mend fences with Gizelle, but it did not go to plan, and Gizelle shrugged at her.
Yeah, something tells us these two will not be making nice soon.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 6 Recap: Ashley"s Lie
Ashley has been causing drama all season long on The Real Housewives of Potomac, but did her latest act of war send her into social oblivion?
That was the main question on The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 6, and it resulted in one of the finest hours of this reality TV show.
When the episode got underway, the ladies reacted in shock to Gizelle being removed from the BBQ. Gizelle stormed down the driveway as though she was on the warpath.
Monique decided it would be best to explain to Gizelle why she felt the need to send her out of her house in a drunken state.
Gizelle decided that she was done trying to speak to Monique because all they did was argue with one another. Her gal pal, Ashley continued to try and find out about Robyn’s relationship with Juan.
The ladies decided that Ashley was going too far and turned on her. They felt like she was sticking her nose were it did not belong.
That signaled the end of the big party, but Gizelle was not ready to let the ladies move on from Monique kicking her out.
She met with Charrisse and Ashley to talk about the events that transpired at the BBQ. Somewhere along the way, Ashley brought up the fact that Charrisse was single.
The two women bickered because that was brought up, but made up, like, one second later.
Sometime later, Gizelle visited Charrisse to see how she was holding up following the drama at Monique’s house. The two women fought in the past, but it became apparent that they were real friends on this episode.
Charrisse opened up about her divorce, prompting a flood of emotions. Gizelle told her that she would always be there for her.
Charrisse then revealed the details about her fight with Ashley. Gizelle did not want them all turning against one another and opted to play peacemaker.
They then started talking about whether Robyn was doing the right thing by sticking with Juan. The two women then went to try and save their friend from what seemed poised to be a failed romance.
They asked her about the rumors that Juan was cheating on her. They felt like Juan was only looking out for himself, while Robyn was looking out for both of them.
Robyn revealed that she held the key to the relationship and that she could end it without thinking about it. This worried the women more as they grew concerned she did not love Juan.
The three ladies bickered over the pros and cons, but ultimately they did not get anywhere.

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 5 Recap: Who Did Monique Kick Out?!?
The Potomac ladies sure know how to bring the drama, and it’s rather delightful for viewers at home.
On The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 5, Charrisse and Monique organized separate events, meaning we got to see more drama than usual.
When the episode got underway, Charrisse was hard at work organizing a party for the National Basketball Wives Association, but it became as clear as day that some women were not going to be welcome.
While this was going down, Ashley struggled to come to terms with the fact that her restaurant was a complete flop. Not wanting to accept defeat, she tried her best to sugar coat her dire situation.
Seeing something you love fail is tough, so we do feel bad for Ashley, but admitting defeat is the first step to moving on. Instead, she turned to Robyn for some assistance in getting the business back on track.
The event organized by Charrisse brought Juan and Robyn out of hiding, and everyone could not help but stare at them. Monique noted to the cameras that there was something amiss with the way both of them were acting.
Monique then decided it would be a good idea to quiz them on their relationship status. It was not the best way to deal with things and made it all seem even more awkward.
When that event was over, it was time to prefer for Monique’s debut event, putting all of the ladies under her own roof. Yes, it was a bad idea, but she’s trying her best.
At the event, Gizelle was quick to point out all of the errors in the night, trashing Monique in the process. It was sad, but it made for some great drama. We’re partial to a bit of drama over here at THG.
Gizelle started mouthing off to one of her friends about how crappy Monique is as a host, but they were caught by one of her friends. Awkward. The friend called them out, prompting another argument between Monique and Gizelle.
For what it’s worth, Monique tried to keep her cool. She knew she would have looked silly if she exploded at the women like that. Monique decided to leave the situation.
Ashley then opened up about the rumors that Juan had another woman. Gizelle had no idea about it, so they waited until Monique was gone to talk about it. Monique caught her in the act, before sending her out the door.
Ashley then decided to open up about Robyn’s man drama. She was not impressed but claimed she was not together with Juan. Therefore she’s fine.
The ladies then got ready for another blowout argument, but the screen faded to black before we got to see it.
Well, this sucks, but we’re pumped to see what happens next.
Can it be Sunday already?!
