'Candiace drew a knife on Ashley, so why wouldn't Ashley write a character reference for Monique who has been gracious to her?'

Candiace Dillard Bassett and Monique Samuels go a long way. They were friends until the knife-waving incident happened in one of the recently-aired episodes. The two have brought in heat, which is going to be further triggered by Ashley Darby's involvement. Candiace and Monique were charged with second-degree assault after a lot of cuss-word-spewing and hair-pulling happened.

In tonight's episode of 'Real Housewives of Potomac,' we will see Ashley chat with Robyn Dixon and Gizelle Bryant about how Monique has requested that she writes a character assessment of Candiace. While Robyn asked if it was a character assassination Monique was looking at, Ashley cleared the air saying that she would only be assessing Candiace's behavioral traits.

Meanwhile, fans seem to be certain that Ashley should go about writing that statement against Candiace because that would serve as "karma" given how she victimizes herself all the time. "Hey, maybe Ashley writing that statement is going to be Karma for Candiace playing the victim all the time and acting like she never does anything wrong. #RHOP," a fan commented, while another hinted that Candiace treated Ashley "sh**ty" and so it was okay for her to go against her: "Candiace drew a knife on Ashley and treated her sh**ty, so why wouldn't Ashley write a character references for Monique who has been gracious to her? #RHOP."



 



 

"So KNIFE THROWING Candiace is upset at Ashley for writing a character letter for Monique?! Is it Crack? #RHOP," a viewer asked, another replied: "#RHOP Candiace is such a spoiled brat. Of course Ashley is going to do what her friend asked. You have to be good to those who have been good to you. This move shouldn't be a shock to her at all."



 



 

"Lol Candiace about to get mad at Ashley for telling the truth in a statement?!???? #RHOP," an amused fan wrote, to which another replied: "Exactly. If Gizelle can bring up Monique's past fights on the show to question her character, why can't ashley bring up candiace's past to make a point???"
