In the premiere episode of season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac, Mia faced scrutiny regarding her relationship with Inc. and her co-parenting dynamics with Gordon during a Hat Party. As the group humorously speculated whether Mia had shared Inc. with Jacqueline already, Jacqueline characterized her previous marriage as merely “a business partnership.”
Karen offered her thoughts on the matter, asserting that Mia and Gordon were more than just business associates since they had children together. She recalled a moment when Gordon mentioned that their kids had seen Mia in bed with Inc., her current boyfriend.
Mia reacted to Karen’s comments, feeling that Karen was holding her accountable for Gordon’s remarks. Meanwhile, Gizelle added that Mia hadn’t protected her children “at all costs.”This prompted an emotional response from Mia as she contemplated whether staying in an unhappy marriage would have been better. While Mia criticized Karen and Gizelle, Wendy came to her defense.
Fans of The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 took to social media to express their mixed feelings about Karen and Gizelle’s comments towards Mia. One user wrote on X:
“While it’s true that Mia didn’t handle her affair, separation, or divorce in the most responsible way for her kids, suggesting she doesn’t protect them feels like crossing a line as a critique of her parenting. It seemed like an uncalled-for jab.”
“I can’t sympathize with Mia because she did exploit her child. Karen and Gizelle spoke the truth, and it’s strange that Wendy is defending Mia since she previously criticized Gizelle for involving her daughters with their own father,”a fan commented.
Some viewers from The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 expressed their criticism towards Karen and Gizelle:
“Honestly, I’ve never been a fan of Mia. Karen and Gizelle’s confrontation was a bit excessive for television. They could have had that tough love dialogue off-camera. I see where both are coming from, but given the sensitive topic of motherhood, they should have been gentler!”a person wrote.
“Mia calling them out is justified. If someone told me I wasn’t protecting my kids ‘at all costs,’ I would’ve reacted similarly. Her response is quite mild considering what I might have done,”a fan commented.
“This is a show meant for entertainment and Gizelle’s comment wasn’t entertaining or funny; it was unnecessary,”a tweet read.
Conversely, some The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 fans supported Karen and Gizelle’s perspective:
“Though it sounds harsh, I side with Gizelle and Karen. I usually don’t agree with Gizelle, but the children shouldn’t have to witness their parents’ turmoil,”another tweet stated.
“You kick off the season with Gordon requesting a paternity test for your young child without discussing anything with them, yet you’re upset with Gizelle and Karen for saying the kids should be kept out of the conversation? Mia and her drama need to exit,”a fan commented.
“I think the power dynamic between Gizelle and Karen will be entertaining this season. And why is Mia shedding those crocodile tears?”another user remarked.
Karen and Gizelle Challenge Mia in The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 9 Episode 1
In the inaugural episode of season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac (RHOP), titled “A Crash Course in Deflection,”the cast jokingly questioned Mia about sharing Inc. with Jacqueline. Supporting Mia, Jacqueline referred to her now-ended marriage with Gordon as a mere “business partnership.”
Karen Huger and Gizelle Bryant expressed their confusion over this characterization. Karen disclosed her feelings about Gordon and brought up his comments regarding their children witnessing Mia and Inc. together. She expressed her discomfort with her kids being “plastered”all over the media amidst these shocking revelations.
Mia shot back, asking Karen if she thought she was unbothered by the situation too. The RHOP star clarified that she did not “plaster”her children on social media; that was Gordon’s doing, and she felt unfairly blamed by Karen.
“But Mia, you didn’t protect your kids at all costs; you didn’t,”Gizelle retorted.
Gizelle asserted that if Mia truly had safeguarded her children, she would have kept her relationships separate. Mia countered that she had filed for separation prior to starting her relationship with Inc. She emphasized that they were unaware of her struggles with Gordon.
Mia left the conversation in tears while Wendy expressed that Karen and Gizelle were too harsh with their comments. Fans continued to share their thoughts online, remaining split over the remarks made by Karen and Gizelle towards Mia.
New episodes of The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 will premiere weekly on Sundays on Bravo.
