'Real Housewives of Potomac': Candiace walks out after being ambushed for the second time at Ashley's house
The drama on 'Real Housewives of Potomac' is scalding. The new season began just three weeks ago and the tension between the ladies is boiling over already and it doesn't seem like its cooling off anytime soon. Last season, Candiace Dillard stirred things up by questioning Ashley Darby's quest to conceive a baby. She also called her a "roach" on the day she gave birth.
Last week, the women came face to face at a dinner that was planned by castmates Gizelle Bryant and Monique Samuels to mark the "coming out of the house" for Ashley who was having a hard time stepping out after giving birth. Everyone was having a good time until Bryant started speaking about the apologies that needed to happen, making eye contact with both Ashley and Candiace.
The latter wanted to make things work and put all the tension between her and Ashley behind them but she suggested that she felt ambushed and the conversation didn't need to happen at the dinner table in front of everyone. History repeats itself and in this case, it did in just a week. Candiace attended a lunch at Ashley's house that was planned to introduce her baby Dean to everyone. Once again Candiace felt ambushed by the ladies and she was seen storming out of the party.
Earlier in the episode, the Darbys were shopping for Dean and that's when Ashley told her husband Michael that she went out to dinner with all the housewives and that she's invited everyone, including Candiace, to the party for their baby. He was worried about her being present at the party but in the end, he was alright with it as all that mattered was their baby.
At the party, after everyone settled down and the housewives were all huddled up together on the couch, Ashley once again brought up the conversation that happened at dinner from the other night. She told Candiace that there's a conversation that keeps going around in the circle about her not taking accountability for things that she says. Candiace takes it in her stride initially and mentions that she didn't need to be ambushed the way she was the other night and that she doesn't appreciate it happening once again. Minutes later, she storms out of the house.
Ashley follows her and the ladies sit down in private to have a quick chat. Candiace tells her that the issue was between them and the ladies didn't need to be involved. She also was concerned about why people were only talking about what she did when both of them have things that they need to apologize for. After that, Candiace tells Ashley that she must get back to her baby and they could hash out their issues another time.
'Real Housewives of Potomac' airs on Sundays at 9 pm on Bravo.
