'The Real Housewives of Potomac' might have aired the most dramatic episode of Season 5 tonight (September 7). This was an episode everyone was waiting for with bated breath. People who've been following the Potomac edition of the 'Real Housewives' franchise know that Ashley Darby and her husband Michael's relationship has always been under the scanner.

Their marriage has always been shadowed by rumors surrounding Michael's sexuality. For two weeks, audiences were teased with Candiace receiving a text from a friend of hers that told her that Michael Darby was overhead saying he has a wife and a boyfriend while at a strip club from the other night. The first thing Candiace does is speak to Gizelle Byrant about it. She then contemplated telling Ashley about it but also goes back and forth about it since they just became friends after a long explosive fight. Fans of the show are definitely enjoying all the drama that the season has been serving up. However, this time they also think that it's an inside job and that it's been done to amp up the theatrics and the person texting Candiace is none other than the producers. 

"Now y’all know the Bravo producers texted Candice with that tea #RHOP," wrote a fan. 



 

"Bravo producers ain’t slick making sure they blur out they own name #RHOP," wrote another. 



 

"Is this friend a 'producer' #RHOP," wrote another fan. 



 

"Candiace when a producer sends you a text they wamt you to bring it up on camera #rhop," tweeted another. 



 

"Hi Candiace is your Friends First Name Producer Last Name number three? #RHOPWatchParty #RHOP" tweeted another.



 

"The producers sent this text to Candice - and then the first thing she does is brings this info straight to Giselle????? This is a setup!!!! #RHOP," read another tweet.



 

Coming back to what's happening on the show, it was also revealed that the husbands will be at the Monique and Chris Samuels' lakehouse to join in the celebration but before that the ladies sit down for dinner one last time, just them. Candiace has all this information about Michael which she definitely intends to tell Ashley, but will she do it at the dinner in front of everyone? Guess we'll have to tune in to find out. 

'Real Housewives of Potomac' airs on Sundays at 9 pm on Bravo.
