She\u2019s back! As rumors swirl about her ex-husband sleeping with another\u00a0Real Housewives of Potomac<\/strong>\u00a0cast member,\u00a0Monique Samuels<\/strong>\u00a0has returned to the scene. Bravo just dropped a sneak peek at RHOP Season 10 Episode 7, where the former full-time Housewife makes her long-awaited comeback. Get your binders ready, and check out the clip below.<\/p>\n Of course, we\u2019ve known for months that Monique would be\u00a0rejoining the RHOP\u00a0cast after five years offline and a\u00a0failed attempt at rebranding\u00a0on the Oprah Winfrey Network. However, we had no idea that Monique\u2019s return would coincide with rumors about\u00a0Stacey Rusch\u00a0hooking up with\u00a0Chris Samuels, but here we are!<\/p>\n In the teaser, Monique makes her triumphant return courtesy of an invite from\u00a0Ashley Darby. Surely the fact that Ashley is also the one spreading the Chris rumor is just a coincidence.<\/p>\n Upon Monique\u2019s return, the editors dropped in some sound bites from some of her iconic moments. Threatening to choke\u00a0Robyn Dixon\u00a0with an umbrella? Check. T\u2019Challa Samuels shoutout? Check.<\/p>\n A lot has changed with Monique since those early RHOP days, and she wasted no time filling us in on the gaps. She\u2019s got new pets, a remodeled home, and thanks to her divorce, she\u2019s \u201cthree hundred pounds lighter.\u201d<\/p>\n As Monique gives Ashley a tour of her remodeled home, the two reflect on\u00a0Monique\u2019s Season 5 fight that derailed her status as a Housewife. At this point, she\u2019s clearly paid her dues, and she\u2019s ready to get back into the mix. But are the rest of the ladies ready for her?<\/p>\n He put a ring on it!<\/p>\n Madison LeCroy announced her\u00a0engagement\u00a0to boyfriend Brett on Thursday.<\/p>\n \u201cI am engaged! And I\u2019m so excited because I honestly had no clue at the time,\u201d the \u201cSouthern Charm\u201d star, 31,\u00a0exclaimed on Amazon Live\u00a0on Thursday. \u201cIt was a very special moment for my family. We traveled a good bit around the world, and I kinda thought it would possibly happen then, but I think it happens when you least expect it.\u201d<\/p>\n She added, \u201cHe involved my son [Hudson, who] is a huge part of my life, and we\u2019ve been crying for the last week because we\u2019ve been overwhelmed with the excitement.\u201d<\/p>\n LeCroy said she didn\u2019t hesitate to accept when Brett popped the question over dinner on Oct. 8. She added that Brett had asked for Hudson\u2019s permission, which the 8-year-old happily gave as long as he could be a part of the special moment.<\/p>\n LeCroy has kept her relationship with Brett fairly private, but she shared photos and videos from the big night. On Friday evening, she posted a dress that her now-fianc\u00e9 bought for her to wear.<\/p>\n A few hours later, LeCroy took a video of herself in the gorgeous champagne-colored gown while sitting in a limo with Hudson. Her son wore a white button-down and slacks while holding two bottles of champagne for the couple.<\/p>\n \u201cYou guys, I am so shocked,\u201d she said in an Instagram Story while showing off the dress. \u201cThey are up to something. I\u2019m very excited.\u201d<\/p>\n Brett then appeared in the next Story, also wearing a white button-down and tan pants. The couple toasted each other, and LeCroy captioned the video, \u201cSurprise date with my two favorites.\u201d<\/p>\n Her man then took the mother-son duo for a special date night on Kiawah Island in South Carolina.<\/p>\n The salon owner\u00a0went Instagram-official with Brett\u00a0in June. At the time, she kept his identity private but revealed that he was over 6 feet tall, 35 years old and lived in another state.<\/p>\n The two met in the spring while LeCroy was in Scottsdale, Ariz., for a friend\u2019s party.<\/p>\n \u201cI did not know him at this time, but I go into this bar and we immediately lock eyes from across the room,\u201d LeCroy\u00a0told\u00a0Us Weekly\u00a0in June. \u201cIt was, like, instant. And I mean you really can\u2019t miss him. \u2026 He\u2019s absolutely stunning.\u201d<\/p>\n They went on their first date a few days later, and the two \u201cfell in love instantly,\u201d she said. \u201cWe had been together pretty much non-stop since then.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c[It\u2019s] going very, very well, and even my ex-husband [Josh Hughes] approves,\u201d she told\u00a0the mag. \u201cMy son\u2019s father knows a lot about him through my son and my son saying that I seem happy and \u2018He\u2019s really nice to Mom\u2019 and all these things.\u201d<\/p>\n LeCroy made headlines earlier this year when\u00a0she found herself at the center of Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez\u2019s breakup. As Page Six exclusively reported, the former couple split because Lopez, 52, was \u201cembarrassed\u201d by the fact that the former baseball star, 46,\u00a0allegedly cheated on her\u00a0with LeCroy.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Madison LeCroy scandal was the reason they finally broke up,\u201d a source told Page Six. \u201cThere were already problems, but Jennifer was really embarrassed by it.\u201d<\/p>\n LeCroy, for her part,\u00a0maintained that they only FaceTimed.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s never physically cheated on his fianc\u00e9e with me,\u201d she told Page Six, adding, \u201cI don\u2019t want anything bad for his family, or for mine. We are definitely innocent in this.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSouthern Charm\u201d airs on Bravo and is currently filming for Season 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" She\u2019s back!
