DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, CARIBBEAN: Robyn Dixon is taking the ladies to the Dominican Republic for an island escape. However, one person who surely isn't in the mood to let loose in 'The Real Housewives of Potomac' is Wendy Osefo's friend and newbie, Keiana Stewart.

Robyn claimed she was inviting everyone on the vacation, including her new buddy Keiana. They've gradually introduced her over the season, but it took several episodes for her to have a confessional and significant screen time.

Unfortunately, Keiana had an ulcer that flared up five minutes during her first Housewives casting tour. Talk about a terrible start!

During the February 25 episode, Keiana couldn't help but bring up her disappointment in her close friend, Wendy, who failed to check on her. She also brought up the gesture she was expecting from her old friend in the group, which instead came from Gizelle Bryant.

Keiana said, "Y'all a**e* didn't come to check on me today." Still, Wendy was quick to remind her of the ginger ale she got her.

'RHOP' Season 8 newbie Keiana Stewart involved in huge club fight

In a bizarre video that went viral in 2023, pals of 'RHOP' cast members got into a brawl, with punches flying and ladies being hauled down by their hair. This exclusive video, acquired by TMZ, shows the cast breaking up a fight between a friend of the show Keiana, and another woman, Deborah Williams, at Zebbie's Garden in DC for Ashley Darby's fashion line debut.

According to a police complaint obtained by TMZ, Candiace Dillard Bassett stated that someone threw a drink at her, while Keiana claims she was hit in the forehead with a glass before being pushed down during the physical struggle. Candiace and Ashley can be seen clearly in the video attempting to break up the chaotic altercation, which appears to have resulted in some bloodshed.

According to TMZ, production had already ended when the altercation occurred, therefore the crew's cameras did not film the incident.

“Deborah and Candiace had been talking s–t about each other all night,” a source told TV Deets at the time. “Candiace was confronting Deborah about what she had been saying about [her husband] Chris [Basset] and Keiana walked up and got herself involved.”

While Keiana apparently delivered the initial punch, the informant stated that Deborah "definitely won" the fight.
