RHOA Reunion Part 1 Recap: Porsha Accuses Newbie of Takedown Plot, Exposes Their Alliance, Apologizes to Drew, and Claims Kelli Amped Up Divorce Drama, Plus Angela Targets Phaedra, Drew Drops Lawsuit Bombshell, and Kelli Addresses Brit’s Allegation and Unpaid RentThe thunder rumbling as the ladies arrive at the season 16 Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion sets an ominous tone. Brit is not in her dressing room-in fact, she is nowhere to be found.  So much for confronting her about various issues over the course of the season… There is still a chance for Drew and Porsha to work things out despite the drama that engulfed them in regards to Dennis, but not all problems get resolved during part 1 of this reunion…

The ladies keep Andy waiting, making their grand entrances late to the set.  They are clad in yellow and even Andy has joined in with his yellow tie.  Porsha is fresh off a breast procedure, Phaedra remains calm and cool like a seasoned vet would, and Shamea is amped to be on stage not just as a friend of.  Angela shows off her bejeweled fan, Kelli comes bearing a crystal, and Drew is ready for it all.

Andy explains that Brit has decided not to join the group for the reunion.  Kelli claims that Brit caused “mass destruction” within the friend group, yet still continues to act like the victim.  Porsha spoke to Brit the night before and oddly enough, she did not mention this no-show move. The untruths never stop with Brit.

Drew is bummed because she wanted to figure out why Brit would file a lawsuit against her.  Drew claims that there was a blog talking about things were on the poster Kenya showed during *the* incident and Brit was not happy about it.  This lawsuit seems to be news to everyone!

It doesn’t take long for Cynthia to come out and fill up Brit’s empty seat on the couch. All season long, Cynthia brought the peace and really enjoyed her role as a friend of. She was a great sounding board because she went through many of the things the ladies are currently navigating. Cynthia and her boyfriend, Le Prince, are doing very well, despite the age gap…and Phaedra understands the beauty of a younger man, as she, too, is dating one!

Porsha’s season was a bit different than she expected with filing for divorce, getting caught up in the drama, and the passing of her cousin, Londie. Porsha explains how her house was the only thing she was able to get in the divorce and she is grateful that there was a prenup. Porsha admits that Simon has been detained by ICE due to an immigration issue, which means he is in a jail somewhere.  Porsha makes it clear that she did not call ICE on him; after all, this hiccup is not helping her finalize the divorce, something she desperately wants.

We are all left wondering how Porsha did not see the many red flags Simon was waving.  Kelli claims her purpose in asking Porsha if she took another woman’s husband was to be “helpful.”  Ahem, messy. Porsha reminds Kelli they had a conversation about leaving their husbands and bonded over divorce.   Kelli doesn’t like that Porsha is trying to compare the divorces, considering Kelli was “married for 11 years and” Porsha “was married for 11 months.”

Porsha made a bad move when she said she should sleep with Charles Oakley, especially since people already think she stole a cast member’s husband.  In regards to how Porsha and Simon met originally, there is some confusion.  Shamea denies that she introduced Porsha to Simon, despite what Angela is saying Shamea said in Nashville…but it doesn’t help that Porsha remains mute when asked about the details about the initial meeting.

Simon has already stated that Porsha slid in his DMs which would mean Shamea didn’t introduce them. So is Porsha being mute to try to implicate Shamea for something she didn’t do? The plot thickens.

When it comes to Dennis, Porsha is happy that they are back to happily co-parenting. Drew gets called out for calling Porsha’s comeback a “flop” and she explains that it felt as though because Porsha had no storyline, she came on to attack Drew.  Drew claims that “where the cameras catch me, they catch me” and she continues to deny any type of relationship with Dennis, other than business.  In fact, according to Drew, Porsha knew that she was working with Dennis. 

Porsha did not like that Shamea asked Drew if she was sleeping with Dennis because at the end of the day, Porsha is trying to focus on the filming. Porsha tries to take the heat off herself apologizes to Drew for being petty and meeting with Ralph and the ladies decide to move on from the unnecessary drama. However- we can all agree it is still so wild that Drew chose Dennis to work with out of ALL the music producers in Atlanta considering his past…

Kelli explains that she extended her glam team and wardrobe to Brit…not for the entire season, and not for the entire team. This seems to be the demise of their friendship. Kelli makes it clear that she is not jealous of Brit.  Porsha mentioned that Brit said the newbies wanted to have an alliance during the season to take Porsha down.  Shamea says that there was an alliance: Shamea, Kelli, Brit, and Porsha. Porsha claims she would NEVER be a part of an alliance, but Shamea’s facial expressions say otherwise.

Kelli apologizes to Angela, who claims she did not know alliances were formed. At the start, it seemed like Kelli had a blind allegiance with Brit, but since Brit went so low as to bring up Kelli’s alleged abortions (despite having her tubes tied), the friendship remains on ice. Kelli has done so many thoughtful things for Brit, but none have been reciprocated.

Kelli can proudly say she is officially divorced after approximately $200,000. She talks about WHY she travels with a bodyguard (protection against her ex) and denies Porsha’s claims that she does it only for the show. Despite owing a small $100,000 debt in unpaid rent, her second location should be opening soon…that is unless she spends all of her money pampering her pup.

Angela is hell bent on Phaedra being responsible for getting Marcus to be the messenger about Charles’s cheating.  She links them together because of some crazy high school connection.  Angela goes as far as whipping out a folder of receipts, but no one seems to be following, especially Phaedra who continues to question why she would want to take Angela down.  Angela feels as though Phaedra did this to secure her spot on the show and wonders why Porsha is so eager to back Phaedra. Will the truth come out during Part 2?
