Thoughts your manners was a theme misplaced on the premiere episode of The Actual Housewives of Atlanta, season 16. Whereas we perceive that “shock ya moments” are the material of the Actual Housewives franchise throughout the board, there’s a stage of decorum that one would anticipate in real-life circumstances, and extra importantly, a stage of respect we’d like Black girls to have for each other. So, I’m calling the women out.
Let’s speak in regards to the evening’s greatest fake pas: the primary interplay between Kelli Ferrell and Porsha Williams. Sure, the entire situation was set from the second the present began. Amongst a gaggle of friends, Kelli requested why Porsha had stolen her now estranged and shortly to be divorced husband, Simon Guobadia, from former RHOA star Falynn Pina. Phrase bought again to Porsha, who spoke about it within the confessional, organising a showdown at Shamea Morton Mwangi’s celebration.
Porsha had barely sat down for intros when Kelli requested, “Why did she take that lady’s husband?”
Howdy? Porsha don’t actually have a cocktail in hand, and also you’re asking such an invasive query? Whereas it might warrant asking, doing it in public at another person’s celebration was the improper place, improper time, proper alongside the strains of asking Drew Sidora if she’s courting Porsha’s first ex Dennis McKinley now.
Because the EBONY group contemplated this second, one editor identified that Kelli was an RHOA superfan earlier than she joined the forged, so she would ask the questions all of us wished solutions to. However this second appeared extra staged than genuine (once more, Bravo’s M.O.). Perhaps the right time to ask would have been a heartfelt one-on-one?
However Porsha has her personal issues. She confirmed up “not” fashionably late to Shamea’s celebration, simply as the lady of the hour was having fun with her birthday reward from her husband Gerard: a $430,000 Rolls-Royce Cullinan. Shamea famous that whereas they’re finest pals, Porsha ought to have gone “to the left” throughout her particular second.
The loopy factor was that Porsha answered her etiquette query by explaining that it’s a must to go away early to bypass the visitors. “If you happen to don’t go away at this magical hour, you may be a minimum of two hours late to wherever you’re going.” Then go away THREE hours earlier than to get there on time, lady.
Now for Shamea. She shared that on one among her first dates along with her husband, she blew up his lavatory. We’re not saying that is an etiquette concern in any method (once you gotta go, you gotta go!). However somewhat tip from Miss Manners: Take child wipes and somewhat Poo-Pourri spray to maintain that loo smelling good once you’re completed… or perhaps not, since her mess bought her her man!
