Whenever the husbands get into fights on 'Real Housewives', things get ugly. It was no different when Michael Darby decided to intervene during a fight between his wife, Ashley Darby, and Candiace Dillard Bassett. In the preview clip for the Season 5 finale episode of 'Real Housewives of Potomac', we see Candiace yelling at Michal daring him to "touch her", while he and Candiace's husband, Chris Bassett, were in the middle of a fight. 

In the preview clip, we see all the housewives and their partners enjoying a party. But thanks to the underlying tension between Candiace and Monique Samuels, the situation quickly escalates. Candiace begins yelling at Karen saying she saw what happened between Monique Samuels and her. Karen is then shown walking away from the group, and in her green room interview, she declares that "she's done". 

The explosive fight between Monique and Candiace has been one of the main storylines of the ongoing season of 'RHOP'. While vacationing at Monique's lake house, she and Candiiace got into a heated argument, which turned physical. Monique dragged Candiace across the room by her weave. The producers had to intervene and split the ladies apart. Following the attack, Candiace filed a lawsuit against Monique for assault and was later counter-sued by Monique. 

As Karen was leaving, Ashley shouts at Candiace saying Monique might not have control, but she does. At this point, Candiace loses her temper and checks Ashley by asking who she's talking to. As things were getting out of hand among the ladies, Michael goes to Chris and asks him to "control his wife". Chris didn't appreciate Michael's tone or advice, leading to the two men getting into a huge fight. Candiace and Michael too can be seen getting into a fight.

Michael and Candiace have a strained relationship, ever since the former beauty queen took to her Twitter to attack Ashley, and spread malicious rumors about him. In the preview, we also see Michael declaring that he doesn't like Candiace, as she always loves to play the role of victim, he also admits to not thinking very highly of Chris either. We will have to watch the season finale to see if the housewives and their husbands can finally put their differences to rest before the end of the season.

'Real Housewives of Potomac' Season 5 airs every Sunday at 9/8c on Bravo.
