When the trailer for the upcoming Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 15 reunion dropped, one thing was clear: Drew Sidora and Ralph Pittman would be the reunion’s focus. This came to the chagrin of many fans.

Of course, many fans were upset with Season 15’s focus on Drew in general. Many RHOA fans agreed that Season 15 had fallen off hard from what the show once was. Nevertheless, many have remained seated for the resolution of Drew’s marital problems.

Including her fellow Housewives. Every single one of them expressed how shocked they were to learn that Drew had filed for divorce. In part, the shock came because they’d seen her partying closely with Ralph the day after filing. Drew explained why she delayed telling her co-stars.

Ralph caused Drew to ‘break down’

Essentially, Drew’s main reasons for initially hiding her divorce were processing and denial. As she told Bravo, “I really didn’t know how to talk about it. It was almost like happening faster than I could process it. And I almost had sometimes when I wanted to tell myself like, it wasn’t happening, or something was going to change and we were going to stop it.”

She touched further on how difficult the processing portion was. “I had a moment where I broke down or whatever, but for me, I was just trying to get through the day, you know? It was a struggle for me, but I was like, let’s get through the day. I’m not trying to hold up nobody’s time because like, once I spiral, it’s like … just stop.”

She further emphasized that her “mission and why” was just to get through the first day and each day after. She also explained, “I’m a private person to like, to certain degrees like this. I just felt like, until I’m ready to talk—until I can talk about it and really process it—I was just trying to deal.”

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 15 reunion begins this Sunday, September 3, at 8/7c on Bravo.

Chelsea Griffin Promises ‘Juicy, Spicy’ Drama on Love Is Blind: After the Altar

Are you ready for some more romance and chaos? Netflix just dropped the trailer for Love Is Blind: After the Altar Season 4, and it delivered. The daters are out of the pods and in the real world. And, without Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey breathing down their necks, these couples (and singles!) are ready to create some good reality TV. We are here for it.

Pod Squad, reunited

Although it feels like just yesterday, when we were all complaining about the Love Is Blind “live” reunion failing to air when it was supposed to, a lot of time has passed for the daters. The trailer revealed that everyone hasn’t moved on from their time in the “experiment.”

All of the major players from Season 4 are returning: Chelsea Griffin and her husband Kwame Appiah, Bliss Poureetezadi and husband Zack Goytowski, Tiffany Pennywell Brown and her husband Brett Brown, Micah Lussier, Irina Solomonova, Paul Peden, Amber Wilder, Marshall Glaze, and Jackie Bonds, with her boyfriend Josh Demas.

Chelsea sat down with People and teased what fans can expect from After the Altar. Obviously, we can expect to see her rocking fifty shades of pink while slowly driving Kwame crazy. But, she also teased that this season will be packed full of “juicy, spicy drama.” Now, that’s what we like to hear!

“I prefer to stay out of the drama, but it does happen around me,” Chelsea teased to the outlet. “I prefer to not engage in drama, if anything. I mean, if anyone wants to come up and talk to me about something, I mean they kind of know I’m pretty rational as a human being. And I’m not going to really do that.”

Since filming the show, Chelsea landed a role on the casting team for Love Is Blind. So, she knows what it takes to make a good show. And it’s usually the people who claim not to engage in drama always find themselves involved in the most drama. So, we’ll see how Chelsea fairs this season.

In the meantime, two people we definitely expect to see some drama from are Jackie and Marshall. Marshall has some unfinished business after Jackie dumped him for Josh and then refused to show up at the reunion. He’s also got a new lady friend who filmed for the show. We can’t wait to see how this shakes out.

Love Is Blind: After the Altar Season 4 premieres on Netflix on September 1.
