At BravoCon in Las Vegas, Candiace spoke with ET about the ongoing drama. She expressed her frustration, saying, "It's very hard to have even a simple relationship with a robot and someone who has perpetually decided that she is not going to share her life but instead lie on others' lives."

Wendy Osefo, another RHOP cast member, supported Candiace's comments. Wendy added, "Why are you constantly talking about others when we are not talking about you?"

The tension between Candiace and Gizelle stems from several incidents. Last season, Gizelle accused Candiace's husband, Chris Bassett, of trying to be a "sneaky link" and making her feel uncomfortable in her dressing room.
