RHOA Season 16 Reunion, Part 3: Charles Oakley Don’t Know You

Porsha vs. Shamea: Mom Drama Goes Deep

Porsha and Shamea returned for the reunion couch ready for the final showdown. Their beef? It runs deep — literally into their mothers’ past business dealings. Turns out, Shamea’s mom allegedly bought the building that housed a childcare center belonging to Porsha’s mom after foreclosure without telling her first, and both say that was the breaking point that shattered their longtime friendship. In the end, both agreed to shelf the issue — at least on camera — for now.

Andy Cohen stepped in as emotional coach, prompting Shamea to be more direct about her feelings — and reminding her that gaslighting doesn’t look good on camera.

Drew, Dennis, Ralph & The Hot Mess of Text Message Miscommunication

All the men involved — especially Dennis McKinley — made a rare on-stage appearance. Porsha explained she was blindsided by Dennis filming with Drew, and not necessarily that they were working together musically.

Drew exploded at the reunion, accusing Ralph of fabrication and calling out Dennis for text message lies, while Ralph defended himself with vague shade and nonsense. Ralph can go back down to his basement and take the Hotdog King with him.

Charles Oakley: The Enforcer Don’t Know You

When Charles took the couch, airwaves cleared. He handled obsession rumors — especially those stating he knew who any of them were prior to being on the show — with shade and directness. Fun fact, he went out with Shereé Whitfield before she joined RHOA. Charles basically declared loudly to the women, “I refuse to be your storyline for Season 17!” He delivered low-key shade but kept it real, and everyone listened.

Missing Stars & Brit Eady Fallout

Neither Brit Eady nor Kenya Moore attended the reunion. Brit skipped by choice, while Kenya was disinvited after the scandal at her hair spa launch. Brit has since sued Bravo for defamation, sexual harassment, and emotional distress, claiming the photos weren’t even of her. Girl, bye.

Some fans on Reddit questioned the need for three parts to the reunion since half the cast didn’t appear, but Bravo clearly wanted to milk every last moment out of this lackluster season.

Charles delivered the rare husband slam-down, others left fans wondering how crowd-sourced chaos might shape Season 17.
