Potomac Housewife Monique Samuels

In the midst of season five of RHOP, the wives are finally able to open up about the drama that has ensued. Monique Samuels tells CPTV about how hard it is to refrain from speaking out about the conflicts that go on while filming and explains:

"I've been quiet this whole time, so I'm just finally - and you know, it's a hard thing for me to be quiet, so haha. So, I'm just excited to be able to share my side of the story and address what needs to be addressed, address the things that I could not address when it first happened."

In an upcoming season five episode, Samuels also engages in a fight with fellow housewife Candiace Dillard. Looking back on it now with a different perspective, Samuels says:

"If we both had better energy back then, I feel like we could have handled that whole situation in a much better way. I'm just excited for people to be able to see it with their own eyes, and you know come to their own conclusion based on what they see."

Beverly Hills Housewife Teddi Mellencamp

We are more than halfway through season ten of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and housewife Teddi Mellencamp tells us as about her disagreements with Denise Richards. She says:

"Denise and I differ. She is able to do that, that's how she lives her life and that works for her, but I have to actually connect with the people that I'm with because if not, then I feel like a phony or a fraud."
