The Real Housewives of Potomac season 8 trailer teases drama, demons, divorces, and a “new Grand Dame.”
Lights, cameras, action! The Real Housewives of Potomac returns to Bravo on November 5 for its eighth season.
Ashley Darby, Gizelle Bryant, Karen Huger, Robyn Dixon, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Wendy Osefo, and Mia Thornton are all back for season 8.
The veteran Real Housewives of Potomac stars will be joined by newbie Nneka Ihim, who is a successful lawyer and first-generation Nigerian-American. Nneka comes from a very wealthy family, but she also recently married a surgeon and moved into a luxurious home in Potomac.
“Thanks for buying me a $2 million house,” Nneka tells her husband in the season 8 trailer, bragging, “My daddy’s a rich bitch, and he made sure his daughter’s a rich bitch too!”
Nneka’s wealth has Gizelle Bryant dubbing her “the new Grand Dame,” which doesn’t sit well with long-reigning “Grand Dame” Karen Huger.
“If only it were that simple,” Karen quips with a laugh.
Real Housewives of Potomac OG Charrisse Jackson Jordan, who starred in the first two seasons of the franchise, is back again as a friend of the Housewives. She will be joined by a new friend, Keiarna Stewart.
The RHOP season 8 trailer is full of fun, playful moments, as well as plenty of drama.
Mia Thornton and longtime friend Karen aren’t gelling this season. Mia calls Karen an “old dog who needs to find some new tricks,” to which Karen responds: “You are the trick.”
Wendy Osefo and Nneka also find themselves at odds throughout season 8 over the newbie claiming that Wendy’s mom did “voodoo” on her.
Meanwhile, Candiace Dillard’s ongoing lawsuit with Ashley Darby’s estranged husband, Michael Darby, has caused tension between the two Bravo stars.
“Kiss my f—ing ass,” Candiace yells at the mother of two. “Walk away so I can see it,” Ashley fires back.
“You don’t f—ing own me to put me out of this group!” Candiace quips, to which Ashley responds, “That’s so immature.”
On top of that, Robyn Dixon is feeling iced out of the group after her revelation that her husband, Juan Dixon, was direct messaging women on Instagram before their wedding. The story came to light after filming for season 7 of RHOP wrapped filming. However, it was later revealed that Robyn and several RHOP cast members knew about the scandal during production but failed to bring it up on camera.
“I’m turning into a f—ing villain,” a tearful Robyn says amid being confronted by the RHOP cast. “I didn’t do nothing to y’all!”
“People always got something to say,” an angry Juan later tells Robyn. “I don’t care!”
