Season 10 of The Real Housewives of Potomac took another confusing turn last night when an off-camera conversation between Angel Massie and Jassi Rideaux made its way into the spotlight. The situation completely derailed Jassi’s bachelorette party, but when the ladies bicker over things that weren’t shown on the show, it makes it a little difficult to follow. Thus, we’re here to break it all down for you.
During RHOP Season 10 Episode 6, the cast took a fabulous yacht trip and tried to enjoy their final day in Nevis. After the boat, the cameras went down for a moment as they drove back to the resort. That’s when the ladies overheard Jassi and Angel having a heated discussion. There was something about a woman with a snaggletooth and stringy hair. No one knew who in the hell they were talking about.
Fast forward to Jassi’s bachelorette party, where Gizelle Bryant had all the ladies dress in “slutty” costumes. They filled the room with phallic decorations. Ashley Darby was ready to lick whipped cream off of everyone. But Angel brought down the vibes when she walked in, feeling “deflated” from her off-camera chat with Jassi.
With the negative vibe stinking up the party, Angel and Jassi had no choice. They needed to fill in the rest of the ladies on the drama they had discussed.
“Me and Angel know a lot of the same people,” Jassi explained in a confessional. “I didn’t ask for information, but some of the people reached out to me and gave me the background tea on Miss Angel. They told me that she is not the nicest person.”
At the party, Angel shared her side of the story. She said she befriended a woman, right around the time she started dating her now-husband, Bobby Massie. That woman went behind Angel’s back and told Bobby’s agent that Angel was planning on stealing money from him. She also claimed Angel had “hidden birth control” to “get pregnant by Bobby without his knowledge.”
“And so, when I found out that she did this, I let her have it,” Angel said of the former friend.
All of the veteran RHOP cast members commended Jassi for bringing up the tea during an off-camera moment. Angel, on the other hand, didn’t feel pleased about any of it. She wound up leaving the bachelorette party in tears, marking another downer of an episode for the Season 10 newbie.
“I don’t know Jassi. So, for her to bring up something that was hurtful to me and my family in the past, I’m really, really bothered by it,” Angel admitted in a confessional.
Quick on the heels of famously sassy, phrase-turning R&B singer and reality TV star Tamar Braxton’s announcement her recently released album, “Bluebird of Happiness,” will be her last — at least for a while — and news that her husband, music executive husband Vincent Herbert, founder of Streamline Records, was legally ordered to pay Sony more than $3.7 million to settle a lawsuit over a 2013 advance, the couple hoisted their grandly proportioned and glamorously appointed Mediterranean mansion in Calabasas, Calif., up for sale at $15 million.
The Herbert-Braxtons, married in late 2007 after about five years together, purchased the 13,716-square-foot mansion inside the double-gated Estates at The Oaks enclave in April 2013 for $10.5 million and public records show since then there have been several notices of default filed and subsequently canceled against the two-acre spread that provides a total of seven bedrooms and nine full and two half bathrooms between the main house and poolside guesthouse.
Wrought iron and glass front doors open to an entry vestibule and foyer with black and white floral-patterned inlaid floor and a floating, wrought iron railed staircase that curves up to the bedrooms on the second floor. The main living and entertaining space makes a great sweep across the rear of the residence with gleaming wide-plank hardwood floors laid in a classy chevron pattern.
A central gallery with glossy grand piano is flanked to one side by a lounge with semi-circular sofa in front of an ornate fireplace and to the other by a “champagne bar” modeled after The Dorchester Hotel in London with tufted velvet sofas and a stately wood-paneled ceiling.
Arched French doors open the vast space to an immense, stone-paved loggia with retractable canvas shade awnings and a bowling alley-length dining table that easily seats at least two-dozen al fresco diners. With elaborately carved cabinetry, granite countertops and a super-sized commercial-style range under a hand-hammered copper hood, the kitchen is open to a spacious informal dining area that, in turn, opens to a family room with fireplace and French doors to the backyard.
The three-story mansion’s creature comfort also include a home theater, a game room, an office, a wine cellar with tasting room and, unsurprisingly, a recording studio along with an elevator, an camera-equipped security system, a gentlemen’s lounge with authentic barber chair, a mirror-walled gym and a subterranean parking garage that will accommodate over a dozen cars. The mansion makes a U-shaped embrace around a broad and grassy courtyard with swimming pool and spa beyond which a soccer pitch-sized lawn gives way to a panoramic view over rugged ravines and undeveloped mountaintops.
Some of the other, equally sized and similarly luxurious estates in The Estates sections of The Oaks are owned by reality television’s Kourtney and Khloé Kardashian, Michael Jackson’s mother Katherine Jackson, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and Jay McGraw, elder son of extraordinarily well-compensated TV therapist Dr. Phil McGraw, and his Playboy model wife Erica Dahm.
