The BB20 cast, and a hint of Big Brother 20’s social media twist

The 16 houseguests competing on Big Brother 20 were just announced, though they were previously leaked to former winner Dick Donato, who tweeted them last night. As usual, it's a young cast: 80 percent of the cast is in their 20s; the others are 30, 34, and 40. No specific details about this season's twist or theme have been revealed yet, but a preview released Sunday night called this season "a high-tech reboot," and Julie Chen... keep reading this story »

The Real Housewives of Potomac Recap – Petty Is As Petty Does

Have there ever been more frivolous fights on The Real Housewives of Potomac than the ones we witnessed tonight? Okay, season 1 had its moments, but the ladies were new to reality TV and could be forgiven for rookie mistakes. But several scenes tonight top my list of stupid stuff to fight about.

Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon are on a mission to deliver a message to Karen Huger. I’m not sure exactly what their message is other than Robyn wants to say “Liar, liar, pants on fire”, and Gizelle wants to see Karen embarrassed. I’m getting Déjà vu from last year when the Green-Eyed Bandits crashed in to OZ while Ashley Darby was working and Robyn came at her, finger in face, screaming that Ashley needed to stop talking about Juan.

Someone else Gizelle wants to see is Kyndall, Sherman’s ex-wife. Gizelle says she’s a horse face. Geez, really? They make a bee-line straight to Karen and tell her they want a few words with her. She tells them they can talk after dinner but leave her alone now. They refuse to back down, but Karen is no shrinking violet. She immediately calls security and has them hauled out of the event. Their behavior is childish and makes them look bad, not Karen. She may deserve a tongue lashing, but this just gives her the high road. Security escorts the riff-raff to the street, and Charrisse Jackson and Ashley follow. Gizelle gives them her side of the story, but Cha sees right through it. She thinks Robyn allows Gizelle to take her down a few levels.

Inside Carson Kressley is giving us some much needed comic relief as Master of Ceremonies. Back outside Charrisse apologizes once again for missing Robyn’s empowerment summit. Please make this STOP! Robyn still won’t forgive her and we will still be subjected to this absurd, asinine fight FOREVER or at least until someone makes an offhand remark about her relationship with Juan. GAHHHH!!!!! Cha has had enough too, and she takes off with her date back into the event. The rest of the night is drama free except for a shady moment when Michael calls Karen’s business I-CON and he isn’t about to write a check that he suspects will be going towards Karen’s newest mansion.

The next day Candiace Dillard and her fiancé, Chris, are trying to figure out how they’re going to pay for the extravaganza wedding she’s planning. Chris’ suggestion is to cut back on guests and decorations like trees. Oh Chris, do you even know the woman you’re marrying? Candiace’s solution is to call her Dr. Dad. First, she makes sure she looks cute and smiles prettily for the conversation. She dives in and asks for more money. His response is a flat out NO. Her face falls and there’s no more pretending to be sweet. She hangs up the phone and Chris tries to explain the whole concept of a budget which only serves to annoy her.

Ashley feels like she needs some guidance on her problems with Michael, so she calls her uncle, who is recently in cancer remission and has become someone who tells it like it is. Ashley tells him about their fight about having children and Michael saying he’s concerned she’d be just as bad a mom as her mom was. The uncle lives up to his reputation and tells Ashley that Mike is full of s*** and just wants a trophy wife. Ashley asks him if she should just wait until he wants a kid, but her uncle doesn’t think he’ll ever want one. Ashley is heart-broken. Why didn’t Michael tell her this before they got married? Obviously, Michael doesn’t want to start over again, and Ashley isn’t going to stay in the marriage if she can’t be a mom.

It seems the housewives have officially separated into teams. Team Gizelle (Robyn and Ashley) are working out on mini-tramps and Team Karen (Monique and Candiace) are with a trainer. They all talk a lot about Karen’s party, but there’s really only one thing to remember: O Huger isn’t even a 501c. The producer asks Karen in her talking head how much did she donate after the event. Answer: It was very successful, and she won’t ever say how much was given. Want to know? Look it up! Here are just a few of the adjectives I’ve thought of to describe this: evasive, deceitful, underhanded, crooked…feel free to add to the list. Karen, stop playing games and tell us what is up with this charity.

Later Candiace goes to OZ to have drinks with Ashley. Candiace tends to be an airhead, but she’s spot on when she says that Ashley changes into a mean girl when she’s with the Green-Eyed Bandits. However, one on one Ashley is pretty cool. Candiace complains about the wedding and all the fighting she and Chris are doing over budgets. Ashley tells her to focus on the fun, not the flowers or perfection because people will remember the fun. Candiace, however, just wants all the pretty things, so she’s not convinced. Ashley says that marriage is a process and admits that she and Michael are really struggling. She lays out the fight they had about kids. Candiace replies that it isn’t fair to blame Ashley for her bad mom and maybe he just doesn’t want any more kids, period. They both are making sense and too bad they can’t swap bodies in a Housewives/ Freaky Friday crossover and fix the others’ problems.

How many times does a friend have to apologize to Robyn before they are finally off the hook? Apparently, the answer isn’t “five” because Charrisse meets Robyn for lunch and right off the bat apologizes again for not being at Robyn’s event. This is the low budget version of Groundhog Day where Charrisse is being forced to repeat the same conversation over and over…Please…someone, anyone, make it STOP!! Eager to stir the pot, Robyn asks Cha how she feels about Monique calling Cha’s friends and inviting them to her events. Wait…What’s this? An opening for Charrisse to focus attention on someone else and end her apology tour? Why no, she’s not happy with Monique now that you mention it. In fact, they hardly talk these days. She looks to Robyn to see if she’s on the right track. Robyn’s smiling, so yes, she’s making progress. She’s going for it and now she’s mad at Monique! Robyn says Monique is thirsty to become a social climber. Suddenly, Charrisse’s eyes are wide open when it comes to Monique the friend poacher.

Down in DC, Gizelle is setting up her Every Hue booth for the Congressional Black Caucus yearly event.  She will be color matching and she is a natural when it comes to selling her beauty line. Karen and Monique are also attending the event as guests. CBC is a great place to network and pick up business tips and apparently men. After all, Karen met the Black Bill Gates at this event over two decades ago. They decide to ignore Gizelle and her booth. They circle the hall, shake a few hands, and then they start to leave. Robyn and Gizelle chase them down. Monique lies and tells them she didn’t see the booth because all she just wants is to escape. Karen doesn’t even bother to be nice. She says they are leaving and walks off. Robyn calls after them, “You running away?” Karen doesn’t run, she sashays. To their departing backs, Robyn yells, “LIAR!” Classy. Candiace comes in and they try to lure her on to their team like they did Ashley and Charrisse, but Candiace knows she doesn’t have a dog in this fight and it’s best just to stay neutral on this one.

Early the next morning, the engagement ring is off her finger, and Candiace is in the bathroom crying. She says Chris called her something unforgivable. This must be really, really bad. What could it have been? Brace yourself, he called her a Spoiled. Diva. Princess. How could he?? Is she overreacting? Perhaps, but just wait. Instead of apologizing, he tells her that he will continue to check her when she acts that way. Apparently, this fight began when she made him hold all her stuff. Her version is it was just her purse when she had to use the restroom. So whatever, he was holding stuff, slow to call the Uber, and generally pissing her off. Then he said IT. This was all irrelevant bickering until she texted him that he’s a coward and a clone of his deadbeat dad. Dang, Candiace knows how to twist the knife to really make it hurt. After all, Chris is estranged from his sperm donor father.  Am I the only one that immediately thought about his teenage son he hasn’t seen in many years? Anyway, Candiace rolls her eyes but apologizes, and he forgives her. He gives her back the ring and tells her to stop taking it off.

Thank goodness this fight is over because I’m so done with all the petty quarrels. Would another game of bubble soccer build some bridges? The three that sat it out last time, Karen, Gizelle, and Charrisse, are the only ones that can play. The rules are there are no rules, and the last woman standing gets Robyn.

Tell us: Are Ashley and Michael finished or will he come around? Can Karen, Robyn, and Gizelle ever be friends again?

Jeff Lewis Responds To Lawsuit; Says He Believed Surrogate Was Like Extended Family.

 

Jeff Lewis is fighting mad after learning the surrogate he hired to carry his daughter Monroe is suing Bravo. Alexandra Trent, who has appeared on Flipping Out several times, filed a lawsuit against Bravo for filming segments of her giving birth – including some snarky comments Jeff made about her vagina – without her permission. Alexandra is seeking unspecified damages for unlawful recording, fraud, and invasion of privacy.

Although viewers couldn’t see any of the actual birth process, the camera crew was stationed behind a curtain recording the entire process, which according to Alexandra, was a violation. She also cites that she was humiliated by Jeff’s inappropriate remarks.

Jeff acknowledges that his comments about Alexandra’s vagina, among others, were “a poor attempt at humor” but maintains that he and Gage Edward are “devastated” by the lawsuit because of the negative connotation it gives their daughter’s birth, and also because they considered Alexandra a friend. 

“This is like a blow to the head. We are completely blindsided by this. I thought we had a nice relationship, a friendship,” Jeff responded in a statement. “We treated her like an extended member of the family. So you can imagine this is pretty stunning.”

Jeff also accuses Alexandra of using him, Gage, and the show for financial gain and complains that her suit, “smells to me like a financial shakedown.”

“We couldn’t be more grateful to this woman for birthing our child. We are indebted to her… we are so completely grateful to her, because without her, we wouldn’t have Monroe,” continued Jeff, “but on the other hand, these are fabricated claims and are completely bogus and without merit.”

Jeff tells People that after the episode aired he learned Alexandra was upset about his comments, which he agrees are “off-color,” so to make things right he sent an apology letter and flowers. “I thought it was all good.”

In the ensuing months they kept Alexandra updated about Monroe with gifts, photos, and communication. “I’m telling you, this was an amazing experience!” Jeff insists. “We were friends. She was a part of our family. We bought her a beautiful push gift. That’s what’s so insane to me. I thought this was over.”

In response to Alexandra’s claims that she didn’t expect to be part of Flipping Out, Jeff is aghast: “That, to me, is insanity, because we were upfront and honest from the beginning, to the point where her appearance release was a part of the surrogacy agreement because the whole idea was to document this journey. And not only did she sign an appearance release as part of our surrogacy contract, I believe she signed it as a separate appearance release with the production company. And she signed a nondisclosure agreement, which she now violated.”

Jeff is also concerned about the potential impact this will have on Monroe, now 2. “What worries me now and what is upsetting is that our daughter, at any point in time, for the rest of her life, she has this horrible cloud,” he expressed on his Jeff Lewis Live show. Jeff says that personal information, deemed private per their surrogacy contract, could be made public at the hands of the lawsuit – and instead of Monroe hearing her birth story from her two parents, she’d learn from Google.

Gage echos these concerns, “I don’t know what that does to her psyche later. I was just hoping that was something we as two parents would be able to handle on our own terms. And tell her what we want, not a side that’s crafted by a litigator.”

Um… except Jeff and Gage also put the story on Flipping Out so it’s not exactly private…

“It’s the biggest form of betrayal,” adds an emotional Jeff.  “It’s sad and it’s upsetting. I’m really trying to focus on the positive things. I’m trying to keep it together.” Additionally Jeff snipes that Alexandra now owes him an apology.

TELL US – DID ALEXANDRA BETRAY JEFF & GAGE, OR DOES HER SUIT HAVE SOME MERIT?

Monique Samuels Pregnant With Baby #3

90 Day Fiance Happily Ever After Recap: The Blame Game

Last night we saw the dimmest minuscule smidgeon of a brain cell fire in Nicole’s head. Why? Because she finally got a half-clue about Azan not being the stand up guy she thought he was for the past 3 years. You know – the guy who’s all too happy to sit on his unemployed buttocks all day, renewing his gym membership and going out to midnight coffee bars on Nicole’s Starbucks paycheck? Well, maybe not just on Nicole’s paycheck…because it seems Azan has other fish on his hook. And they might not demand as many french fries or shoulder sniffs as Nicole?

At the beginning of the show, Nicole gets a call mid-interview that alerts her about voicemails leaked online that sound very much like Azan telling someone he wants to kiss them, that “the kiss was good” and “I know you want it.” <dry heave> It’s unmistakably him, except he sounds breathy and gross in some sort of attempt at sexytimes talk. Much like Annie’s “boom boom” sex speech, we can never un-hear this. KILL ME.

Nicole races to the bathroom, leaving producers in the dust (and slamming the door on one of them!) while she calls Azan to confirm the leak. She whines, “WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT KISSING SOMEONE IN A VOICEMAIL?!?!?!” He just evades, pretending not to know what she’s freaking out about, nor WTF a voicemail is. Or whatever. Producers film through the crack in the door (we can only assume they’ve wedged open with some garbage they’ve found on Nicole’s disgusting floor) while Nicole cries and moans.

Azan, you in trouble boy! You may be 55% attracted to Nicole, but you are 100% busted.

“My heart hurts,” cries Nicole, who keeps demanding explanations that Azan can’t give. He finally says he was just joking around with his friends one night and they “made” him call another girl. Okay – We already know that Nicole is a special kind of stupid, but the fact that she accepts this answer so easily and CONTINUES to pack up for Morocco afterward is just beyond comprehension. “I need you to pick ME!” she demands of Azan. He swears that he will be faithful to his meal ticket from now on. And that’s all Nicole needs to hear.

So she continues to pack up her motel room while May sits on the bed and watches, helpless. (#SaveMay! #Intervention! #ThisIsACrisis!) Nicole plans to live with Azan’s family who despise her while she lives in Morocco for a year. She also plans on supporting herself – and Azan – on her savings until he gets a job. Which will be precisely the same day that David gets a job, i.e: The Day Hell Freezeth F**king Over.

Nicole’s very normal looking friend (!!!) Jessica goes along with her to pick up her wedding dress. Jessica tells producers that what Nicole’s doing is terrifying, impulsive, and most likely regrettable. But oh well! At least she gets to be the sane one in this scene. Then again, the cockroach in Nicole’s toilet bowl gets to be the sane one in his scenes too, so…

Nicole breaks down in tears as she tries on her inappropriate wedding gown, perhaps letting it sink in that she’s blowing up her entire life for the sake of a man who clearly doesn’t want her. But, stubborn as she is, Nicole won’t turn back now. “As soon as I get there, all the nerves will go away,” she dumbly justifies. Yeah, that must be it! OH MY GOD THIS CHICK IS NUTS. Seriously – of all the trainwrecks on this show, I think she wins, right?

A day before their flight to Morocco, Nicole takes May to the park to meet up with her much wiser brother, Thomas. He won’t be at the wedding but looks forward to hearing about his parents grilling Azan about his nefarious intentions. Not that they’ll be able to stop the monster they raised from destroying all of their lives. At least Thomas knows there’s no talking his sister out of disastrous decisions. Dealing with this trash heap of a situation is above his pay grade! He just hopes May remembers who he is when she returns – and that she returns, period. (No one cares if Nicole comes back, let’s keep it real.)

On the day she leaves, Nicole finished packing. “Who am I kidding, I don’t need workout clothes!” she giggles to her mom. Robbalee looks like she’s going to vomit as she waves goodbye to her daughter and precious grandbaby. She knows Nicole is being scammed, we know Nicole is being scammed, my dog knows that Nicole is being scammed. But Nicole refuses to see the truth. Thus, she loads May on to a plane and flies straight ahead into her self-made doom. Of course, she gets on the phone with Azan first to make excuses about why she sent him less money than she promised recently.

Robbalee puts it best: “Nicole is not necessarily a rational person.” WORD.

Paola & Russ 

You know, these two bores barely deserve a paragraph for their played out story, but here’s the gist. Juan and Russ argue at dinner. Paola loves every minute of it but pretends she doesn’t. She gives us a lot of “I’m torn between my HOSS-band and best friend!” speeches. Then she finally leaves with Russ, who almost fights Juan on the street, but doesn’t because his pleather jacket might rip. Although most of us (ok, I’ll speak for myself) would like to see Juan take a nice punch to the chin, we know violence is never the answer. Ditching Paola is! Alas, Russ will never do that.

Back at the hotel, Paola screams at Russ when he reiterates that Juan is scum and needs to go. She thinks Russ just doesn’t understand the depth of her connection with Juan, which probably is written in fame-hungry dollar signs. Because if Juan isn’t the thirstiest idiot on this show, I don’t know who is (hmm, maybe Paola?). Also, did Russ hire an acting coach for this scene? Because his lines need a little more rehearsing. Kinda like his hair needs a little bit of shaping. I’M SORRY I CAN’T STOP. It’s just sooooo bad. Also, is he dead inside yet? Because his eyes are telling a story, man.

Jorge & Anfisa

Since Anfisa let Jorge move back indoors, she’s been keeping herself busy by breaking into his phone and wondering who his friends are. She’s also become adept at calling Jorge out on lying, which is basically his full-time job. This is an average convo – Anfisa: “Where are you going?” Jorge: “To the store.” Anfisa: “Stop lying.” Jorge: “Ok, to the divorce lawyer.”

When Jorge can’t argue his way into another boys’ night out with his joint-wearing friend, Ramon, he begrudgingly allows Anfisa to tag along. Even more terrifying: HE LETS HER DRIVE. When they arrive, Ramon is in shock at seeing the woman, the myth, the webcam girl sent to him in a link that he totally didn’t open – Anfisa.

And let’s just pause here a moment to fully appreciate the side eye and sh*t eating grin that Ramon gives the camera crew throughout this entire scene. Basically, Ramon is all of us. Except he praises Jorge endlessly instead of calling him a lying dimwit, so he maybe not all of us. Anfisa’s not buying his BS, and neither are we. But shout out to Ramon for trying! And shout out to him for sporting joint #2 behind his ear for his second scene on television. Note to Erika Jayne: This is what “giving zero f**ks” actually looks like.

Sometime later, Jorge and Anfisa go to dinner on their own to discuss their relationship. Jorge thinks they need a vacation; Anfisa thinks Jorge needs to fix their relationship with his family. He’s thrown Anfisa under the bus since day one, yet takes no responsibility for his lies contributing to her psycho behavior. Jorge says he’ll make it right. But much like David, this pile o’ turds is all talk and no action. So Anfisa calls his bluff by telling Jorge to call his sister right now. He complies, but Lourdes doesn’t answer. Anfisa’s like, okay, then call your mom! But he refuses.

Cut to an interview in which producers ask whether Jorge has seen Lourdes since his visit to the divorce lawyer? Anfisa looks shocked – she can’t believe Jorge didn’t tell her about this small little detail of seeking a DIVORCE. As she jumps off of the interview couch, Jorge tries to wrest her back into place, but his slug-like reflexes are no match for a Russian scorned.

Jorge’s go-to move is to lie, so he does. He claims he never went to divorce lawyers, but Anfisa smells a rat. She forces him to call Lourdes to confirm the truth, but she doesn’t pick up again. She knows this dimwit is lying, but he won’t fess up no matter how hard he’s busted. Two words, dude: CAMERA FOOTAGE.

Chantel & Pedro

The trip from hell is finally at its end, and Pedro has aged twelve years. He and Chantel barely speak to her parents as they drag their bags into their apartment. But The Family Chantel cares not one whit! They’re hiring a private investigator to uncover the truth about HARVESTING, so they think he can just go scratch.

A week later, Pedro is working out at the gym preparing to run from dudes in trench coats. His sister Nicole calls to check in about visiting him in Georgia, which obviously has already been planned and booked. Pedro says he’ll be sending Nicole a plane ticket soon…and telling Chantel later. Basically, he needs backup. And Chantel needs to bust out her classic line again, “b*tch ass slut ass wh*re – Good night!” I’m in.

As they shop for couches later, Pedro lets it slip that this couch won’t just be for sittin’ – nope! Sister Pedro will be sleeping with one eye open on it very, very soon. Chantel’s jaw mildly unclenches for a moment at this news, especially when she hears that Pedro bought her ticket. “You never bought MY ticket when I came to visit YOU!” she complains. The fact that Family Pedro gets flat-screen TVs and plane tickets while she lives without furniture in a dinky apartment is not lost on her. Pedro, once again, only has the excuse that he must support his family first. (And he needs his sister to help him evade that P.I., yo.)

Annie & David

It’s been months, and David still has no job, no rent for the firehouse, and terrible family relationships. So…#TheAmericanDream

At the zoo, Ashley, her boyfriend Oscar, and her kids meet David and Annie to stare at the penguins. Um, while the penguins point and stare right back at David? Annie doesn’t like Ashley, but she’s willing to semi-snarl her way through the stank of the monkey house in order to play Mrs. Nice Wife. But while David and his grandkids pose for photos, Annie just sits sulking in the corner feeling left out. She wants her own family with David, but he’s already got one who hates him. And even though David looks like he’s about seven months pregnant, they’re actually not expecting a child anytime soon.

Afterward at lunch, Annie calls David out for being the deadbeat he is. She’s looked into her Magic 8 Ball and the answer to David supporting her, giving her babies, and paying that $15k dowry is: OUTLOOK POOR. Annie says having children is her dream even if she has to raise them in a fire station. David promised her this, but his promises are as empty as his bahtless pockets.

Also, David had a vasectomy! And though he claims he’ll have it reversed, the likelihood of him procuring – AND PAYING FOR – this procedure is zilch. Annie knows David is all talk and no action, but what can she do now? She’s been making boom-boom with this thing every night for the past year all in the hopes of getting something out of it. “You just talking, talking, talking!” she snaps, which shocks David. Hmm. Maybe he thought he could trick this trick forever?

Molly & Luis

When we last saw the happy couple, Molly was slowly coming to the realization that Luis is a piece of donkey-dung that needs be flung off her shoe. He has no interest in being a stepdad, regardless of the empty promises he made over pina coladas at the all-inclusive resort where they met. Molly’s mom comes over to talk about Luis, and Molly admits things have changed. Or, as Molly admits, maybe this is who he was all along, she just didn’t see it. Olivia leaving the house was the final straw, and sad as it is, perhaps jolted Molly into the reality of her sh*tty parenting choices since Luis came on the scene.

Later on, we learn that Molly has told Luis that he’s got to go. But, child that he is, Luis has locked himself in the bedroom to escape Mom’s wrath and to post selfies on social media of his sexiness. And to threaten calling the police while salsa dancing through the halls now and then. Um, whuuuuut? “You can’t call the police, Luis! This is MY HOUSE. No one made you come here, no one made you be a turd,” she calmly explains.

The good news is that Molly can pick locks with a screwdriver, as we see in previews for next week. HA! Once she breaks in, Molly charges straight for Mister Man Baby. And out of nowhere, Molly summons the strength of a thousand Owl-Buddhas to SHOVE him on to the bed. Now, I don’t condone domestic disputes that turn physical, but can we all just agree that Luis kinda-probably-for sure deserved a lil’ ole’ shove? Okay, fine. I’ll take one for the team and just say it: GO MOLLY!

Karen Huger Isn’t Interested In Robyn Dixon’s Fakery; Tonight’s Real Housewives of Potomac Episode Preview

Before we jump into tonight’s drama on The Real Housewives of Potomac, Karen Huger is sharing a few insights on last week’s episode. She touches on her reasons for inviting Kyndall to her event, the tension with Robyn Dixon and more!

After seeing how upset Robyn was, does Karen regret attending Monique‘s event? “Robyn Dixon knows that my doubling booking both she and Monique Samuels‘ event was just that, a simple double booking due to lack of communication among we ladies. I offered both ladies to attend both events. Monique was receptive to this but not Robyn. Robyn insisted I choose to attend her event and cancel on Monique, that was not going to happen.”

She adds, “let’s not forget the Gizelle’s role in gassing up her supposed bestie by lying to her stating that I said, ‘I didn’t want to attend Robyn’s event… and that I would rather attend Monique’s event.’ For the record, I never said any such thing, I simply said ‘I’ll be there’ when speaking to Monique at Gizelle’s B-Day party. Roll back the tape and watch Gizelle in action.”

Karen asserts, “For Robyn to play the victim now is very revealing of her character a desperate cry for my attention. I’m not interested in Robyn’s fakery.”

On that dinner scene of Robyn and Gizelle Bryant planning to show up at Karen’s event to give her a talking to, she says: “I’ve always known Gizelle to be very messy and I’ve always known Robyn to be Gizelle’s follower. Watching the two of them maliciously and meticulously plotting to ambush my O Charity Dinner benefiting the Alzheimer’s Organization was an all time low even for them.”

On why she invited Sherman’s ex-wife, Kyndall. “The O Charity Dinner is an Alzheimer’s fundraising event. The more people I invite, the closer we are to finding a cure for Alzheimer’s. Kyndall is a friend of mine. Why would I not invite her? Friend to friend, I informed both ladies that I had invited each of them. There is no mess here.”

TELL US – ARE YOU BUYING KAREN’S SIDE?

Tonight is an all new episode of The Real Housewives of Potomac. “After seeking counsel from her uncle, Ashley must face the truth about why Michael is hesitant to have more children. Robyn confronts Karen about her lies in a public forum, while Charrisse is left questioning her friendship with Monique. The stress of wedding planning becomes too much for Candiace, testing her relationship with Chris.”

Join us in the comments at 8/7c! And come back tomorrow morning for Dana’s recap!

90 Day Fiance Happily Ever After Preview: Nicole Packs For Morocco & Molly Turns On Luis

It’s time to party down with the star-crossed couples of 90 Day Fiancé Happily Ever After. Another week, another disaster awaits!

Last week left us with Nicole shopping for wedding gowns (that she expects her mother to buy) in anticipation of her Moroccan wedding to Azan. Only one hitch: Has Azan actually AGREED to this plan yet? Because correct me if I’m wrong, but our man never actually said, “Yes, please! Come on over here and let’s get married!” Did he? Are we missing something?

Molly has practically hit her limit with Luis, and this week it looks like she might give him the boot – and a hard shove – once and for all.

Annie begins to question David’s ability to support her, long term. Which officially makes Annie the last person on earth to finally question this. Because David is to jobs what Luis is to step-children: He doesn’t want one.

Pedro secretly invites his witchy sister to visit him in Atlanta, and Chantel is shocked by the news. Paola enjoys Russ and Juan fighting over her some more, but ultimately decides to side with Russ because he’s the one paying for her.

And finally, Jorge allows Anfisa to meet his friend, Ramon. As a reminder, Ramon is the joint-wearing bestie that claims he saw Anfisa’s “web cam” footage online, even though Jorge is backtracking about accusing his dear wife of such activities. Anfisa also gets a hold of Jorge’s phone so she can spy on how many lies he’s still telling her. Spoiler alert: It’s about a million. Because Jorge pretty much can’t open his mouth without letting a lie fly out of it.

Join us in the comments section to dish on all of the juicy drama tonight!
