Kristen Doute Vows To NEVER Accept Lala Kent Into Her Friend Group

Kristen Doute is taking a stance on the important issues of our time and proposing a total ban on Lala Kent. I mean, a girls gotta take a stand for what she believes in.

Kristen feels the Vanderpump Rules cast’s decision to block Lala and James Kennedy is legit because they were never friends with them to begin with, and it’s not like worth their time to get to know them.

Considering Kristen was once ostracized by the very same group and begged to be accepted again, shouldn’t she understand what it’s like to be treated as an outsider? Apparently not!

“I got some backlash on social media kind of saying the same thing that one would think that I could understand what it’s like,” Kristen admits, but explains it’s different because there was never a friendship to get back.

“We don’t have a history with them, and I think there’s really something huge to be said for having history, hence why someone like Stassi [Schroeder] can even be in the same room with Jax [Taylor],” Kristen explained. “It’s not as if one of our best friends hurt our feelings, so we can just forgive. It’s just these two random people that continue to be rude and crude and mean. It’s just kind of like, it’s not worth our time.”

I would say it’s not worth Lala’s time to invest in a relationship with them, speaking of “rude, and crude, and mean” people…

Kristen isn’t offering any apologies for her behavior, however – well, except to her friends for introducing them to James in the first place! “I take full responsibility for bringing James into this group,” she told The Daily Dish, and I apologize on the daily… It’s so my fault.”  Wow – so much growth as a person… #ADULTING

Kristen, Katie and the like do realize how dumb they look, right? Oh, wait… no they don’t. Lisa must put dense and bitchy in the water at SUR.

Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell celebrate one-year anniversary on 'Happily Ever After?' with several big surprises



Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell celebrated their one-year anniversary on Ben & Lauren: Happily Ever After?, and the footage probably melted hearts around the world.

Captain Lee Calls Lauren Burchnell A “One Woman Wrecking Crew” And Calls Her Out For Stirring The Pot

Captain Lee

Captain Lee

Though his blog this week isn’t quite as vitriolic as the past two, Captain Lee Rosbach is still less than pleased with the motley crew he’s saddled with for this season of Below Deck. Disappointed in Kelley Johnson, disgusted with Lauren Burchnell, and amused/confused by Ben Robinson, Lee hopes his crew can just hold it together for ONE last charter.

Lee begins, “I am not sure that I have had this many crew members so unfocused this late in the season. We seem to be shooting ourselves in the foot time and time again for no apparent reason. It is abundantly clear to me that some of this crew do not have their heads in the game, and this our most important guest to date, Mr. Dean Slover.” Ugh. No props to Slover, please!

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

Despite most of the viewing audience being repelled by Dean’s third appearance on BD, Captain Lee seems to like his whiny, creepy a$$! What he did not like: Kelley stranding Dean and friends on an island. Or Kelley bashing the tender into the side of a mega-yacht, which Lee calls “a rookie mistake.”

But Lee also blames Nico Scholly, in part, for the missing keys debacle: “Everyone knows that when you pull in for transient docking, you leave the keys with the boat, just in case the dock master needs to move it. Nico, you should have known that as well given all the experience you have had. Kelley, I feel that you may have been trying too hard to succeed and it was causing you problems. There are times when you just need a bit of assistance to get over the hump, so that is why I gave Nico the responsibility of Senior Deckhand, to ease some of the burden on you.”

Nico’s promotion was also intended “to see if Nico would stop some of his childish behavior and step up his game if he got some more responsibility,” writes Lee. “Listening to Lauren in his ear is not doing him any favors, but he doesn’t seem to have realized that yet, so we will see how it all plays out.”

“Speaking of Lauren,” continues Lee, “how is it you got the whole promotion thing f—ed up? And why do you think it is your responsibility to run around the boat spreading misinformation. You are at the lowest spot on the ladder, you should be doing your job, and keeping your mouth shut. But you just can’t resist can you? As soon as you’re done stirring the pot about Nico’s promotion, you insert yourself into the interior crew’s affairs as well. And to top it off, after your superior admonishes you for gossiping, what do you do? You go straight back to Nico and try and toss Kelley under the bus. My, but aren’t you the one women wrecking crew? Spend more time doing your job, and less time talking about everyone else and we might have a few less issues on board without you stoking everyone’s fires.”

Standing slow clap for that, Captain Lee!!! Spot on about Lauren, in my opinion. But Lee is not done with his verbal dressing-down of the crew yet. He’s got some questions for Kyle Dixonthe man, the myth, the legend! – as well.

RELATED: Kate Chastain Talks Sexual Tension With Ben Robinson

Kyle, I am confused. Who isn’t the love of your life? I have watched you espouse how Sierra [Storm] was the one woman that you were smitten with when you first got on board. Then we had your child’s mother come into the picture, and then Ashley, with whom you have had a relationship with for all of those two years. I just don’t get it. I wonder what may have happened if you and Sierra had hit it off. Where would that have left the “love of your life”? I think you must have been very good at juggling, sir. You are one of the ones that I wish would shelve their personal life and get on with your job, seeing that you can’t quite handle both at the same time.”

As for Emily Warburton-Adam, Captain Lee does feel like her romance with Ben is interfering with her duties. He was also turned off by Emily’s haughty attitude about Kyle’s girlfriend, Ashley. “The yacht is not the setting for the dating game at all. One other thing, I did feel that your assessment of Ashley was a bit on the snobbish side and uncalled for. That didn’t become you at all,” asserts Lee, who thinks Emily “is too bright” to act that way.

Ben’s strange dating behavior is still stumping Captain Lee, who admits, “Ben, you still are amazing me. You have some of the best culinary skills of anyone I have ever worked with. I was a bit surprised at your mistake with the broth and the ice. Not like you, which makes me think that your head isn’t entirely in the game here. You can tell Em what’s for dinner, but not Kate [Chastain] because you’re trying to get a carrot cake in the oven. You can do that in your sleep. I think that you would be better served by you doing your job to the best of your ability, and letting Em do hers and woo her on your off time.”

“But you do get the best line of the night for when you blurted out, ‘You want to come stay in a hotel with me,’ right out of nowhere. Now that to me sounded like something the spider would say to the fly. You killed me with that one Ben. Kate gets second best line with Bemily. Loved that one as well.”

Kate mostly stays off of Captain Lee’s Naughty List again this week. He addresses her ups and downs: “Kate, it was a tough week, but I thought you handled it well. I was surprised that you didn’t come down on Em a bit more for not responding to the radio when I called, but she has been doing a good job up to this point, so I can see where you gave her the benefit of the doubt.”

Finally, Lee hilariously references the additional crew member known as Hideous A. Bouquet, in his blog’s closing. “Also, dealing with the flowers that looked like they were straight out of a Godfather movie was done well,” he tells Kate. “They should not have been on board while we were on charter. Just got in the way. Thanks for not making them the issue Ben did.”

Cynthia Bailey Is Totally Surprised Peter Reached Out To Malorie; Wonders About His Motives

rhoa-cynthia

rhoa-cynthia

Since her marriage was a disaster, Cynthia Bailey assumed her divorce would be a happy land of friendship, promises of everlasting love, and compromise. I think she forgot she’s divorcing Peter Thomas.

When Cynthia learned her spurned ex had reached out to her sister Malorie for guidance she was definitely “surprised.” After all, Mal tried to sabotage the wedding, and Mal and Peter have never exactly been friends. Crisis brings people together, I suppose…

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

“Due to their history in the past, she was actually the last person I thought he would call to discuss our divorce issues with,” the Real Housewives Of Atlanta star describes. “Although Mal and Peter have bumped heads quite a bit in the past, they definitely have gotten along better over the last few years.”

Cynthia wasn’t just surprised – she was confused and a little conflicted. “Mal and I are very close, and she is the person that I feel the most comfortable pouring out my heart to. I can be completely transparent with her. Not only is she my sister, she is my confidante. Wasn’t sure how I felt about sharing her.”

RELATED: Kenya Moore Talks Awkwardness At Matt’s Family Reunion

“I really don’t have a problem with Peter reaching out to Mal; however I do have a problem with Peter reaching out to Mal and Mal not letting me know,” Cynthia admits in her blog. “Sooner rather than later. A lot sooner than later!”

That’s true… a little strange. Maybe Mal didn’t say anything because she didn’t want Cynthia to get any last-minute guilt pangs and reconsider the whole divorce?! But Cynthia is adamant that would never happen. “I am a lover of love, and I always follow my heart. No matter what! When I am in, I am all in. On the flip side, when I’m done, I am done. This was not an overnight decision, and I am at peace with it.”

Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen-X Episode 10 And 11 Preview: Double Episode Tonight

S33_Ep10_SG_101

S33_Ep10_SG_101

Let me be the first to wish everybody a Happy Thanksgiving. To start this holiday season off right, our friends at CBS are serving up two scoops of fun with a two-hour double episode of Survivor tonight. Hey, it’s one less hour than anticipated that you have to spend with your family. And just like there are sure to be fireworks around the dining room table this week between political rivals old and young, don’t expect the eleven remaining Survivor contestants to be all cordial.

So let us set the table for tonight’s big double episode, and hope that there is some excitement on the menu.

PLEASE CLICK THE “CONTINUE READING” BUTTON FOR MORE!

Survivor

Last week, Taylor went down swinging, throwing a few hay-makers on his way to the jury. Speaking of jury, if you have never checked out the “Ponderosa Videos” on CBS.com, you can’t call yourself a true Survivor fan!

Ponderosa, in case you aren’t aware, is the area where all of the jury live and hang out when they’re not being summoned into Tribal Councils every three days. This short video series (each “episode” is under 10 minutes) chronicles each voted-out contestant and their time spent at jury. There is a lot of great insight in the videos, and they supplement the show very well. So please check them out and make this required weekly viewing!

Now, history tells us that most double episodes of Survivor are scheduled strategically, often times to burn through what might be a “lesser,” more predictable Tribal Council. But this season has been anything but predictable. Does the official synopsis from CBS give us any clues as to what may go down? Here is what they’re saying about tonight’s new eps:

Episode 10/11 – “Million Dollar Gamble” – A power struggle between castaways erupts, and each player tries to arm themselves with allies. Also, tensions rise when castaways from Gen X turn on each other and one castaway throws another under the bus to build trust in the game, on a two-hour SURVIVOR, Wednesday, Nov. 23 (8:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

S33_Ep10_SG_133

This description hints that the Gen-Xers are finally going to start turning on one another. The seed was planted last week that Sunday is looking to blindside fellow Gen-Xer Jessica sometime soon, so will tonight be the night where she makes her move?

What makes the game interesting at this point is that we still have three Idols in play, possessed by David, Jay, and Adam (I incorrectly stated that Zeke had one in last week’s article…nice catch and thanks for reading!). With an odd number of players left in the game and the Millennials dwindling, now might be the time that Sunday pounces. But let’s not forget that Adam has very few allies at this point and is between alliances for the most part. If we’re looking to “speed through” an episode, might Adam be everyone’s mutual target and if so, will he throw everyone for a loop by playing his Idol? Or will the easy target be Jay, who is still seen as a threat and who is now Taylor-less? But he has an Idol too…oh my, oh my!

Speculation is tough when there are so many Idols in play. So let’s just hope that tonight’s two hours of Survivor feels worth the extra time commitment. At the end of the night, we’ll be down to just nine players left in the game, and only a handful of episodes remaining leading up to Finale.

S33_Ep10_SG_128

Quick Note: Due to the double episode and Thanksgiving tomorrow, I’m going to try my damnedest to get the recap out late tonight, but don’t be alarmed if it doesn’t post until Friday. Don’t worry, that would still give you five days to prepare for next week’s episode.

The Fans Have Spoken: Looking through the comment section from last week’s recap, there was no love lost for Taylor, who it seemed was unanimously hated among Reality Tea readers. As I had eluded to the previous week, it didn’t sit too well with many that Taylor stole food from the tribe and then was so glib and carefree about his actions. Good riddance, I say, but way to go out fighting. Although Ken didn’t utter nearly a word last week, he still gets comment-love each week and seems to be the fan-favorite of many despite his low-key game. I’m also hearing a lot of people say how much they’re enjoying this season, which is great! I’m enjoying it too, and I enjoy reading all of your comments each week. Let’s keep the conversations going!

Again, see you on the other side of tonight’s double episode, with my recap that will post late tonight (or on Friday).

TELL US: WHO WILL GO HOME TONIGHT? DO YOU WANT SUNDAY TO TURN ON JESSICA OR STAY LOYAL? AND WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO USE THEIR IDOL FIRST: JAY, ADAM, OR DAVID?

Below Deck Recap: Bemily

below deck recap

Sierra-Storm-Confessional-Curly-Hair-Below-Deck

Below Deck sailed back into the choppy waters of Kyle Dixon‘s storyline last night, offering us a glimpse of his girlfriend, Ashley, when she came aboard Valor for a visit. (And got pitied by Sierra Storm.) Meanwhile, Kelley Johnson faces the wrath of Captain Lee Rosbach after botching a guest excursion – wrath that ultimately turns into a shakeup among the exterior crew’s ranks.

Kate Chastain also lives to regret setting Ben Robinson and Emily Warburton-Adam up when she realizes that their budding romance is interfering with work. But Ben and Emily are too smitten with each other to notice – or care! They’ve got gaudy bouquets of flowers to smell! They’ve got hashtags to perfect! #BemilyIsActuallyHappeningPeople #ImTotallySerious

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

After Kelley left Dean Slover and his merry band of friends for hire companions stranded on an island, Captain Lee must come save them. He is not pleased with this outcome. When Nico Scholly realizes he has Kelley’s keys, he refrains from crapping his pants in the literal capacity, but does so figuratively.

Back on Valor, Ben and Kate are preparing to serve lunch, which they hope sweetens the guests’ sour attitudes about being stranded – especially since their champagne ran out before rescue! Gasp!! As Kelley makes his way back to the yacht, he fully realizes his a$$hole will soon be ripped into two. It’s just a matter of how and when.

Oy! It’s happening already. After Captain Lee calls Kelley and Nico up to the bridge, he expresses his rage: “What I want to do is rip your f–king head off,” he spits at Kelley. But what Lee will do is make Nico senior deckhand to give Kelley “some relief,” he claims. Lee really seems to be sending Kelley a clear message with this move though – i.e., that he can’t handle his position as bosun, so Nico will be his assistant manager (in a sense). Does this mean Nico will now adopt the Trevor-like attitude that goes along with the position? Because, given Nico’s hissy fit last week over being reprimanded, he might be well on his way.

Ben and Kate are busy trying to make Dean happy – Ben via his food, and Kate via crafting a large vagina towel on Dean’s bed. You know, the logical tactics! Meanwhile, the rest of the crew are spreading the news of Nico’s promotion at lightening speed. Lauren Burchnell seems thrilled. The only bloke on Team Kelley at this point is Kyle, who thinks Captain Lee is being unfairly harsh on his friend.

Emily also thinks Kate is being unfairly harsh on her; she notices Kate being “more prickly” with her, especially in matters concerning Ben. For Kate’s part, she sees Emily as a giant distraction to Ben. She might be rethinking that whole Cupid bit she played with these two a few weeks back. From where I sit, it doesn’t seem like Ben is unable to do his work while Emily is around though. He’s just a wee bit cringe-worthy in his flirting moves, which may be the real reason Kate is getting annoyed.

Speaking of annoying – Dean decides he wants retribution for being stranded on an island. (You’d think this guy was left there for 40 days and nights, forced to eat one of his companions’ cadavers for sustenance.) Due to his extreme trauma <eye roll>, Dean demands that Kelley and Nico perform a “singing apology” for him. Kelley’s all, “Roger that.” But he looks like he wants to punch Dean in the throat. And no jury in the world would convict him for doing so. Especially after Dean smirks, “I really want to feel the emotion there.” #ToolByBravo

Ben has planned a six-course menu, which looks decadent and lovely. And for which, shockingly, Dean has no criticisms. Kate is not that impressed, however, noting that Ben is being lauded for what amounts to his JOB. She also thinks her stews are being “slackidaisical” – if that’s a word? In any case, she’s through playing Ms. Nice Chief Stew!

As the guests eat, Kyle and Kelley craft an apology ditty. Then Nico and Kelley deliver their ridiculous tune, complete with exposed chests that read “We’re sorry Big D” in green paint at the end. Dean and friends are thrilled, of course, with both the humiliating tune and the bared chests. They clap like the fools they are and, to their credit, Nico and Kelley laugh along good naturedly with them. Anything for a good tip!

In his bunk later, Kelley is approached by Ben, who tells him Lauren’s spreading the news of Nico’s promotion. Except she’s telling people Nico is the new bosun! (I didn’t catch that before!?!) Kelley isn’t surprised Lauren is gloating – or gossiping. But he is disappointed.

The next morning, Kyle tells Lauren that his girlfriend, Ashley, is coming for a visit. He’s thrilled. But given his pursuit of Sierra at the beginning of his time aboard Valor, he’s also worried Ashley will find out about his dirty dealings. And get pissed – as she SHOULD. (Question: Does Kyle realize cameras are following him?) In any case, he is granted time off for Ashley’s visit. He’ll need to whisk her away from the yacht quickly if he’s to manage any damage control.

As Kate plans her next towel creation for Dean – and moves the hideous bouquet for the 100th time – Ben and Emily continue their flirting in the galley. And they whisper about Nico’s promotion, which is to senior deckhand, NOT bosun, as some are spreading. To this point, Kelley later confronts Lauren about her loose lips, which need to be put in check. She may be #TeamNico, but she still reports to Kelley as bosun. She folds quickly under questioning, but later complains to Nico that “Kelley’s not happy about that promotion thing.” Which just serves to spread more ill will where there is none. Kelley is not happy about Lauren spreading misinformation, but dopey Lauren chooses to spread more in defense of herself! She’s craftier than first suspected, isn’t she?

The bouquet, which has now become an actual character on the show, is now moved to the walk in cooler. By Ben. Who wants to preserve them “for Emily to enjoy” later. Kate is incredulous. “So we’re just going to keep them in the walk in for the next 24 hours!?” she asks. She thinks Ben is more obsessed with the image of these flowers than Emily is impressed with the actual flowers themselves. Whatever the case, the flowers need to swim with the fishes soon before murder breaks out!

After Dean and guests leave (Yippee! don’t let the door hitcha! See you next NEVER! <crossing fingers>), Captain Lee sits down with the crew to dole out the tip – and his criticisms. He thinks this charter didn’t prove to be their best effort, “especially with Dean.” Groan. Dean did leave a $26k tip though, which proves that his “traumatic experience” didn’t ruin his time. It’s the biggest tip they’ve gotten all season, in fact.

As the crew turn the boat around, Sierra and Emily discuss the Ben thing. Emily is fine with a little friendly dating, but she’s not sure about this little boatmance going any further – especially given Kate’s mounting annoyance with them.

Kyle-Dixon-Ashley-Girlfriend-Walking-Below-Deck

But there are other matters of romance to turn our attention to, as Ashley comes aboard! Sierra greets her warmly, but notes that she does feel badly for her. Kyle is sketchy, and Ashley might be in over her head with this guy. Emily assesses Ashley as a “typical girl from Manchester” – fake nails, long hair, garish makeup. Ouch! Emily’s upper crust airs are showing…which is perhaps what’s drawn Ben to her?

Kyle-Dixon-Ashley-Girlfriend-Sierra-Storm-Below-Deck

When Kate and Ashley get to know each other in the crew mess a few minutes later, she finds out how Ashley fell for Kyle: He got kicked out of a club, and it was love at first fight.

Ben corners Emily below deck to ask her out on a date, which she sidesteps. She suggests doing something with the crew instead. Ben is shocked! SHOCKED, I say! “Why the hell would she want to hang out with anyone else?” wonders Ben, who’s ego is being squished. And here he thought that freezer bouquet was his get-a-date-for-life card! No so, apparently.

So Ben goes into harassment mode, demanding Emily take a break from her work to hang with him. Take a break! Take a break! he whines. Until, finally, Emily cracks. Ben admits that Emily is a “young pup” and the timing could be wrong for them, but he’s willing to give it a shot. By give it a shot, does he mean wear her down until she acquiesces?

Out on their date, Kyle and Ashley discuss Sierra – WHAT!? Right out of the GATE!? Okay, then. Kyle admits he asked her out on a date, but she texted her boyfriend the entire time. Then called him a queen. Ashley wonders why the hell Kyle would want a date with Sierra in the first place? Kyle spews some sort of rubbish about thinking he had a free pass to “muck up,” but that clearly wasn’t the case. “You’re a f–king a$$hole!” accuses Ashley, who has every right to be upset with this dude she thinks is her boyfriend.

At another location ashore, Ben waits for Emily to grace him with her presence. She finally shows up and tells Ben that she’s fine dating him – if it’s not serious. She’d like a “really good friendship” with him, ultimately. Ben lies that he’s okay with that, even though he was basically calling Emily marriage material when his brother was around. Time for the heavy artillery. “Will you come stay in a hotel with me?” punts Ben, who’s grasping at straws now. Emily’s not sure.

Back on Planet Kyle, Ashley discusses her gender reassignment surgery with him. She’ll need someone to take care of her afterward, and she wants that someone to be Kyle. It’s a big responsibility, but Kyle is more than willing. He wants to commit himself to Ashley now, and Ashley is happy to hear this news. Here’s hoping that Kyle is turning over an honest leaf here, because these two seem kind of great together.

Oh lord! Emily has agreed to the hotel deed. She and Ben sneak off charter later to check into their room for a night together. But where’s that bouquet? Surprisingly, Ben’s not schlepping it with them to the room. And although Ben has promised “nothing sexual – just movies!” it seems likely that they’ll come back to Valor knowing each other a bit…better.

TELL US: HAS KYLE REDEEMED HIMSELF OF THE SIERRA MISSTEP? ARE BEN AND EMILY HEADED FOR A FUTURE, OR JUST A FRIENDSHIP? SHOULD NICO HAVE BEEN PROMOTED TO SENIOR DECKHAND?

Former Mob Wives Star Renee Graziano Is About To Become A Grandma

mob wives renee

mob wives renee

Everyone who watched Mob Wives knows how much Renee Graziano loves her son AJ. She was also very supportive of his relationship with his longtime girlfriend Andrea and she was constantly urging for the two of them to push their relationship forward. Well now things are getting even more serious and I’m sure that Renee is excited to become a grandmother.

I wish Mob Wives was still on TV because I feel like this whole thing would make for some great episodes. As expected, Renee is over the moon as a result of the baby news.

Renee shared the big baby news with her social media followers in an Instagram post that she put up on November 21. The future grandma wrote, “Thank You @andreasimeone_ For Falling In Love With My Son @aj_graziano And Blessing Me With My First Grandchild .. Little AJ Is Already Perfect .. #myaj #taurusbaby #glamma #myloveys #godisgreat #happy #humble #healthy #blessd #highlyfavored.” Clearly, Renee is beyond excited about the baby on the way.

Her son AJ revealed that the couple is expecting a baby boy in a video posted on his Instagram account. AJ wrote, “What a feeling can’t believe I’m guna be a dad to my little man !!@andreasimeone_ your going to be a great mom love you babe.” Aaaww how exciting!

An article from VH1 revealed that Renee’s first grandchild is expected to be born in May 2017. If that’s not a good enough reason to bring back Mob Wives, I don’t know what is. Or at the very least, we need Renee back on VH1 in some capacity. Am I right?

Big Brother Over the Top: Power of Veto Ceremony Results (11/22/16)

The only way Jason Roy does not win Big Brother Over the Top is if he loses both of the final three competitions. He is up against Kryssie Ridolfi, Morgan Willett, and Justin Duncan. All three have not shown extremely good Big Brother Over the Top competition prowess. The only person who could have given him a run for his money will be leaving tomorrow night.

BBOTT Final POV

Morgan nominated Jason for eviction on Sunday night. She hoped he would stay on the block and secure his eviction. Unfortunately, the best laid plans rarely work out in the Big Brother house. The final power of veto competition took place yesterday.

Of course, it resulted in a Jason win. This not only killed Morgan’s plan for the week, but it took out her only ally in the Big Brother Over the Top game.

Around 1:00 PT, Jason used the power of veto to remove himself from the block. As the only available option, Shelby Stockton was forced to go on the block next to Kryssie.

Shelby and Morgan both know that this means the end of the Ball Smashers/Team Long Shot. Justin and Jason will vote out Shelby. She finishes fifth place. This leaves Morgan as the only one left to try to stop Jason from winning the Big Brother Over the Top game.

Big Brother Over the Top Final Power of Veto Ceremony

It doesn’t seem likely. Join us tomorrow to find out if Shelby does go home, and who wins the first part of the final HOH competition.

Kenya Moore Talks Awkwardness At Matt Jordan’s Family Reunion

Kenya Moore

Kenya meets Matt's Family

In all the years that Kenya Moore has been on Real Housewives of Atlanta, we’ve never really seen her sweat. She comes across as confident no matter what – or who – she’s up against and nothing ever seems to make her nervous.

Needless to say, it was different to see Kenya caught off guard and nervous at Matt Jordan‘s family reunion. Matt‘s sister Hallison put Kenya through the ringer. I am sure Kenya wanted to throw some serious shade Hallison’s way, but she restrained herself.

CLICK “CONTINUE READING” FOR MORE!

In an interview with Bravo’s The Daily DishKenya shared how she felt getting grilled by Matt‘s family, “I was definitely in the hot seat when it came to Matt’s family reunion. I had never met his sister before and his mother and father were there. His whole, entire family was there.”

It was definitely a tense situation. I’ve seen a lot of people come for Kenya over the years on this show, but this was the only time when Kenya didn’t come back at them, for the sake of her relationship.

Kenya hinted that there might be some hope for her relationship with Matt‘s family, “And so there were times where there was definitely a lot of tension, and I felt like an outsider. But then, you’ll see how things progress as the show airs.”

Hopefully things progress positively for Kenya‘s sake, but I guess we shall see.

Kenya was also asked about her plans for a baby and whether or not Matt is a factor in her decision making. Kenya admitted, “I think Matt, as long as he is in my life, will be a part of that equation until he’s not in my life.”

As much as a I love the babies in the Real Housewives franchise, Kenya and Matt need to make sure their relationship is solid on its own before they bring a baby into the mix, but that’s just my opinion.
