Monique Samuels steps Behind The Rope. Monique is here to chat about ALL of the drama that went down last season on RHOP before putting it behind her, once and for all, and moving on with life. Monique chats about the physical altercation seen ‘round the world, the fall out on and off camera as a result of that altercation, the lawsuit, blogs, social media accounts and, well, you know the rest. We have been over it many times, have we not? What hasn’t been clearly discussed is just how did Monique feel in that moment, the involvement, or lack thereof by Bravo, and how that one event set the entire season in motion for one F of an epic reunion. Monique chats about her past cast mates Robyn, Karen, Gizelle, Ashley, Wendy and Candiace - and the status of all of those “relationships” today. Speaking of that epic reunion, Monique opens up about the exact moment she realized next season would be more of the same, the factors that led to that realization and the ultimate decision to resign from RHOP and walk away from Bravo. Of course, we cannot chat about the Season Five RHOP reunion without discussing Andy Cohen, the fans' opinions of his “supposed” favoritism of Candiace, how Monique felt during the reunion, Chris Samuels’ feelings during that reunion - which he expressed to Andy, and her epic iconic binder!. We discuss the short list Housewives who, like Monique, actually resigned and the addiction of fame and desire of most to stay on TV for as long as possible. We also chat about who Monique has heard from from other franchises showing support, both during the season and after she resigned, what she thinks of other current Bravo events such as Nene Leaks’ “Boycott Bravo”, and would she ever consider a return to reality TV. Remember we mentioned Monique moving on with her life? She has and in a big way. Moniqiue is busy enjoying the success of her “Drag Queens” Single and a brand new You Tube Show “Tea with Monique”. Finally, last but certainly not least, we pay homage to the one, the only, best Pet in the history of Bravo TV, Mr. T’Challa Samuels. @mrsmoniquesamuels @tchallasamuels @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS EPISODES Available at - https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought to you by NOOM - http://www.noom.com/VELVET (Sign Up for Your Trial Today) Brought to you by UNIDRAGON - https://www.unidragon.com (10% Off First Purchase - Use Code “VELVETROPES” Brought to you by BETTER HELP - https://www.betterhelp.com/velvetrope (10% Off First Month - Use Code "velvet rope") 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.
