The allegations suggested that Candiace's tears were insincere, driven by a sense of guilt and staged for effect, particularly because Robyn was also emotional.

Candiace faced further criticism for being overly dramatic and displaying inconsistent behavior and was criticized for mirroring Robyn's crying.

"How is Candace getting upset at robyns reaction to her disrespect ?lol," wrote a user on Instagram. 

"Candace is a sag- we just be crying and dramatic and fine the next minute," wrote another. 

"She's such a brat," commented one user. 

"Candice is more upset cause robyn doesnt give a damn about anything but his job," claimed another. 

"She lost at Dirty Bird Bingo? I don't know. Even Robyn eventually stopped after her timeout at the Crying Curb," mentioned one. 

"The guilt cry," another user alleged. 

"Candiace is a bad person. She is mean, mischievous and always plays the victim to try to gain pity from people when she is in a weak position. She's a sheet person," someone else said. 

Who is Candiace Bassett married to?
