The Real Housewives of Dallas’ D’Andra Simmons steps Behind The Rope. Checking in from her home office, D'Andra is here to tell it all. D’Andra starts with the obvious - how she is feeling since the world heard via viral media that she had Covid and was in the Hospital. Once we chat about that and which Housewives and Bravolebrities she heard from during this scary time, we get into what everyone wants to chat about. This current season of RHOD. This current season, of course, includes a full discussion of cast mates Stephanie Hollman, Brandi Redmond, Kary Brittingham and Kameron Westcott. D’Andra explains who she thinks is having a hard season, who always gets by easy, how the season is going for her and what the status of each of these relationships is like today. We also chat about newbies Tiffany Moon and Jennifer Davis Long. D’Andra opens up about how and why she recommended Tiffany Moon and discusses the importance of minority representation on television. D’Andra discusses why Tiffany is a great addition to the cast and, on that note, what it takes to make a great housewife, the appeal of housewives in general and why people keep tuning in every week. We, once and for all, get a clear answer on what it means and takes to be a "society woman" in Dallas and just how important is a last name like Simmons in the Cowboy State. We also chat about Mama D, why America is so intrigued by their mother daughter relationship. D’Andra discusses who she knew before the show, the challenges of filming any reality show and the power of the edit. D'Andra discusses the allure of fame and who from RHOD she thinks is the most changed by the show. Of course, we get into the one thing missing from this current season of RHOD, LeeAnne Locken. D’Andra discusses how the show is doing without LeeAnne, how the women reacted to her departure, and how and why her departure has left its mark on this current season. Finally, we chat about upcoming “hints” of what is to come, this seasons’ feuds and what she expects will go down at the ever so close to be filmed Season Five reunion. All right, all right, we will stop rushing the rest of the season. Let’s just enjoy this chat with D’Andra for the moment and wait and see… @dandrasimmons @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Bonus Episodes Available at - https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought to you by HelloFresh https://www.HelloFresh.com/12velvet (Use code 12velvet for 12 FREE Meals, including free shipping) Brought to you by Better HELP https://www.betterhelp.com/velvetrope Merch Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
