Kelli has her final divorce hearing. She heads to court with her entourage, then leaves with no divorce. So I guess it wasn’t final. I’m ready for this divorce to be over. The ex is in jail for not paying child support. Could this dude be more of a loser? Does he even exist?
She complains Brit hasn’t contacted her to see how things went. Then there was the orchestrated call from Angela at this moment who called to check on her.

Phaedra is hosting a shopping event at a friend/client/business partner’s boutique.
I wonder If she’s paying for all of their purchases. That’s a RHONY mid-2000’s throwback when Countess told Bethenney that when someone invites you to an outing or experience, (I believe it was surfing) it’s assumed that they’re paying for everything.
I think she was confused between a date and a get-together between friends. If a friend asks if you want to see a movie with them, do you assume they’re paying for you? Of course not. A date? Yes. (Sorry I don’t make the rules.)

Kelli is hosting some sort of Williams Sonoma waffle event. She only invites Angela, Drew and Phaedra to get to know them on “a deeper level.” Grumpy Chawwles tags along perhaps due to his (not) love of cooking.
Kelli wears head to toe white to cook in.
It’s a cook-off of banana foster waffles.
I predict this going badly, but maybe I need to be more positive.
A competition involving Chawwles’ narcissistic and most likely sore loser ass? God FORBID he doesn’t win.
The cook-off only involves Chawwles and Kelli. This is the first time I’m watching, I missed it Sunday, so I really don’t know how this turns out. I’m nervous he’s going to embarrass the shit out of Angela.
Since Brit got dragged in Grenada for not inviting the girls over, she has decided to host Cynthia and Porsha. I’m sure her weirdo husband will be lurking around drinking his champagne like a girl.
Porsha could not be more excited. I hope every little thing is in it’s place because you know this bitch is going to be judgy as hell. I did see a little mess there in the corner of the foyer.
Brit addresses the renovating. Oh thank God. Not to refer to vintage RHONY again but Bethenney was PISSED OFF that Alex had the actual wherewithal to invite her over for their kid’s birthday party, whilst they were renovating, and didn’t EVEN apologize to Queen Bethenney. And this was even broke-ass Bethenney, who owned zero real estate at that time.
To me, if you don’t even own a home, shut the hell up about critiques of someone’s house.
Anyway here we go, the coveted gathering at Brit’s after she was ordered to invite them over. Hopefully her food and beverage game is up to par.
They discuss Brit and Kelli’s tiff over the ‘glam team.’
Apparently Kelli thinks she owns these meaningless peasants, and they’re not permitted to do anyone else’s hair and makeup, and ordered them not to work with Brit.
Not sure why Brit would even want this ‘team’ when Kelli’s style is always a disaster to be honest.
Turns out she thought Brit looked better than she did on the trip, and that’s her reasoning.
Is this really happening? Is this really a conversation?
Kelli admits to this, citing it seems a little creepy. I guess maybe? But is that fair to do to these people that are trying to make a living?
This ‘stylist’ cannot be that much in demand given the way Kelli dresses. Then again, Brit’s looks in Grenada were a lot more tasteful than Kelli’s, so perhaps her trashy looks are what she is requesting.
Kelli is, however, allowing the stylist to work with Shamea.
I’ve spent way too much time talking about this. It’s giving desperation and a contrived intentional ‘argument.’ And you know how much I love those.
Brit lets Porsha know that Shamea was showing Brit text messages where Porsha was confiding in her about her therapy sessions.
Back at the cook-off, Kelli’s banana foster waffle honestly doesn’t look that appetizing. And I do like banana desserts, and I definitely life waffles, so I’m just saying this doesn’t look great.
Chawwles is being douchey in their joint yap as per usual and says that Angela doesn’t know how to cook.
The waffle cook-off gets deemed a tie. I think that’s probably safe to quell any tantrums or melt-downs.
Pretty sure Chawwles would lose his shit if he lost, and claim that everyone was biased because she’s their friend, and blah blah blah. Kelli would be annoyed if she lost because she seems to think she’s the waffle queen.
If I had to guess just from presentation and some comments, Chawwles’ waffles were better. And I really hate to say that.
Some random dude approaches Angela asking to speak to her privately and it’s about Chawwles.
Angela does look pretty bothered.
Bravo is kind of shitty to do this.
It gets extra slimy (thought he wanted to talk to her ‘off camera?’ What happened to that?) when he suddenly blurts out that Chawwles is cheating on her.
We all know this. He totally has the attitude, demeanor and sneaky behaviors, which I’m familiar with, but this is such an ick way to do this. CA
Everyone thinks Chawwles didn’t hear him, but I think he did and is pretending not to.
This guy gets shown the door by security. We need security in Williams Sonoma.
You know when you get cast as a Housewife, if you’re married, that your husband is cheating or is involved in sketchy dealings, or both.
I guess that kind of blew over. But there are twenty minutes left.
Phaedra calls Porsha who is still at Brit’s to spill. Very pleasantly surprised her husband is absent, and not trying to poke his nose into everything and be the center of attention.
Clearly those ladies knew that call was coming and what was going to be said as they all feign shock simultaneously and identically jerk back from the phone as the news is delivered.
I mean really.
******
Phaedra prepares for her event.
Not to be judgy, but whomever that woman is walking beside Phaedra in the brown dress desperately needs some shapewear. Do they sell that here? I hope she isn’t the owner of the store walking around like that.
Porsha calls Phaedra to let he know her cousin passed away and won’t be making the event.
The ladies begin to arrive, in black which was the assignment. Phaedra really seems to have some sort of strange fetish for Kelli. She’s always grabbing at her and keeps calling her various short names such as Strawberry Shortcake and a bite sized brownie. It’s getting weird.
Kelli gives Brit the cold shoulder when she arrives about this super serious glam situation.
Angela and Kelli discuss the weirdo at her event that told her Chawwles cheats on her.
Angela seems to be suspicious that Kelli knows him. Keep in mind she was right there alongside him as he issues his revelation.
Angela says she did her own research and found this guy and Chawwles spoke to him and learned he was paid to be there delivering this news. That’s not one bit shocking.
The guy that set him up to do this was described, but supposedly he doesn’t know his name or anything about him. That sounds sketchy.
IDK, could it possibly be a BRAVO Producer?
Phaedra has locked the doors because as she said earlier, it’s super vital that everyone is on time, since there are many, many important people that are going to be present.
Drew is now locked out, event though she let her know she was running late and stuck in traffic. Complete with photos.
I love how Brit calls these ladies out when they’re playing dumb and yes, they are extremely passive aggressive.
Brit starts ranting that Kelli asked her if she wanted to share the glam squad. Then she calls her a pill popper, or was it the husband? I don’t know, I didn’t quite catch it.
Brit tells Kelli that her stylist even said she looks a mess. What I’ve been saying!
So clearly these clothes are not his picks. Well that makes me feel better.
Now abortions have been had.
I guess Drew still isn’t allowed in. Does Phaedra not like Drew? I don’t even know. She seems to be taking it rather well. Her knocks on the door get ignored.
I love Phaedra’s little fashionista mini-dudes.
Phaedra tells the rest of the ladies about Porsha’s cousin.
Next week is the finale. Thank God.
Looks like we succeed in getting Chawwles all cranked up. You know how lying ass cheaters don’t like to be accused of things they’re DEFINITELY doing.
