Welcome back to our Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 11 recap, where the women have just returned from their (mostly) healing trip to Bali. During this week’s episode, accurately titled “Hold Your Horses,” Brooks keeps the peaceful vibes alive by hosting a polo match. Not feeling peaceful anymore, however, is Sara, who almost had to live through a real-life version of the movie Taken. Meanwhile, Stanbury and Sergio remain at odds over their future, landing the Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2, Episode 11 in a rough spot.
Lesa, Stanbury, and Ayan want to keep moving forward, but underlying tensions are at play on Real Housewives of Dubai
Last week, everyone came together. As Ayan explains to her husband Chris, she and Lesa patched things up in Bali. Chris calls his wife a loyal friend.
Lesa and her man Rich have the same debrief, with Lesa noting that Bali “was a lot.” For her, the “worst part was obviously with Ayan.” Lesa then rehashes the voice note mess, and I never want to type anything else about this again.
“I guess she [Ayan] thought Stanbury was her friend. Now she knows she only has one friend, and that’s me,” Lesa recalls. Rich laughs, accurately noting that women are ridiculous.
The cameras cut back to Ayan, who also brings up the voice note storyline (UGH), telling Chris that Lesa stopped trusting her. Making matters worse, Lesa said this in front of everyone, which hurt Ayan. Even though Stanbury brought this voice note narrative up, Ayan is angrier with Lesa than with Stanbury.
Lesa tells Rich that Ayan slammed a door in her face. Taking to her confessional, Lesa quips, “I won’t forget. But I am okay to forgive to move forward. But I already told you, Ayan, you will get burned by Stanbury. That girl is not your friend.”
Ayan is being careful. She is moving forward with Stanbury, but she will do so slowly.
Stanbury asks Lesa to lunch. Lesa hopes this lunch with “a snake” is not used to help justify “her [Stanbury] throwing Ayan under the bus,” as Lesa finds this point of view invalid.
Stanbury’s birthday and Brooks’ polo match lie ahead, and a kind gesture arrives for Ayan Beauty
Stanbury and Sergio are thankful for their new home. The building process was stressful, which many of us can understand. Also stressful is her struggling friendship with Ayan. To help, Stanbury wants to fix things between Ayan and Lesa.
Sergio notes that Stanbury’s birthday is approaching. Stanbury hates surprises and does not want anything large. Sergio accepts her plea.
Speaking of big, Brooks is organizing a polo match for the ladies. In her invite, she tells her friends to arrive “dressed to impress,” as she “will be judging” their ‘fits.
Ayan Beauty is growing, so she meets up with her good friend Huda Kattan, the founder of Huda Beauty. Huda loves the samples Ayan shows her, but she tells Ayan to launch and strengthen her business before bringing on investors. She then offers to connect Ayan to the retailer Sephora, which, duh, yes please, Ayan answers.
Three cheers for women who support other women.
Sara’s shocking revelation about her housekeeper on Real Housewives of Dubai
Sara, Saba, and Nina Ali get together, but Sara’s announcement trumps Nina’s return. Her “maid for the past six months has been closing the cameras in the house, bringing multiple men” into her residence. These men have also asked her maid for photos of Sara and her son. Furthermore, they want intel on Sara’s schedule, which WTF?!
In my head, I can envision myself expertly dropkicking every single one of these sketchy souls. Sure, my visions would fail in real life, but unlike me (thankfully), Sara lives in reality. She jumped to a practical response instead and called the police.
Sara further triggers my laughable inner street-fighter with what she says next. This maid’s phone contains pictures of Sara’s son. This cleaning c*unt sent these images to these men, and these mother-f*ckers texted back, commenting on her young son’s appearance, asking who picks up her son and at what time, and how much money Sara has in the bank, which one more time, WHAT. THE. F*CK?!
Sara fired her maid, and her maid is now in jail. But when she entered her maid’s room as she packed, she realized her maid was stealing from her. Nina notes, “She was probably plotting to take him for ransom.” Sara tells her she is correct and that she and her son are terrified.
Sara then reveals that her man, Akin, asked her to cancel an upcoming podcast gig because a hot man was involved. To keep things fair, Sara asked Akin to cancel his shoot, but he refused, so she is now rightfully irked. Saba and Nina do not think Akin is the one.
A solid lunch, followed by Brooks’ polo game and a tough ask from Sergio
Stanbury and Lesa’s lunch arrives. Their Season 1 fight is recalled, aided by a flashback from production, showing Stanbury labeling Lesa as an escort. Lesa cries. She worries people might believe this mess and cross her off their socials.
Stanbury apologies. Things end on a high.
Brooks’ polo game arrives next. The women (and their men) arrive wearing their polo best, in a non-matching kind of way.
Stanbury and Ayan have a sit-down. Stanbury apologizes again, noting the irony in her confessional about how she’s always the bigger person in times of conflict. Even still, it works, and their friendship is good again, for now.
The game starts, and Brooks judges her friend’s outfits. Lesa gets first place. Taleen gets second. Everyone cheers and heads home happy.
Stanbury’s birthday surprise closes out this episode. Sergio blindfolds her and brings her onto a yacht. It’s just the two of them. He gives her a cake version of their new house. He wins.
But Sergio wants a real win in the form of a baby. Turning to Stanbury, he asks, “Are we actually having a baby, or not?” Stanbury answers, “Right now, not.” She then asks him if this is a deal breaker, and it is, as Sergio remains adamant in his request.
Stanbury now has to “rethink everything” as the credits roll on RHODubai Season 2, Episode 11.
Real Housewives of Dubai Season 2 continues every Tuesday on Bravo at 9/8c.
