Bravo synopsis:
The ladies rehash the drama of Jamaica from the ups and downs surrounding the execution of Cynthia’s commercial to her downplaying her relationship with Kenya to the group. In a special appearance, NeNe Leakes gathers with the women to weigh in on the drama and to address the group’s concerns surrounding Porsha’s anger management issues. Shere? and NeNe reflect on their shaky past and where their friendship stands today. The men join the conversation to give their opinions on the plethora of hot-button issues including unsettling allegations surrounding Kim’s husband, Chris.
As expected, Bravo saved Nene Leakes’ appearance for the final installment of the reunion show, but the OG ‘housewife’s’ appearance seemed merely a ploy to stretch out the reunion show for what turned out to be a pretty lackluster season without her.
