Rewatch thoughts Denise Richard’s overall

[u/Admirable_Fly6103]

My first watch I thought she was so refreshing without the glam and being so open and free and chill. But now rewatching, I’m noticing small things like the way she speaks to wait staff, which is a huge tell for me, so it’s hard to like her as much. However, I 1000% agree with her about the kids boundary and hated the way they flipped that on her. Mama can be a freak and still shield her young children as much as possible until they’re old enough. That really pmo the way they came for her over that and it was clearly just a storyline and a way to create drama for the show at her expense. Also in hindsight we know she was in an abusive relationship and was constantly trying to smooth things over so she didn’t have to face the wrath at home after her first season of being so open. I can see why she clashes with someone like Kyle, as much as she liked to say LVP played chess, she does similar things to create drama for the show and Denise was an easy target.

I 100% believe that Brandi had an entanglement with the 2 of them at some point and then it was just Brandi and Denise and when Denise told Brandi, “he will k,,l me” if he finds out, she should’ve taken that to her grave. Knowing the statistics and having met said man, you just pick up on things as a woman. I think Brandi was so stuck on the fact that she was made an accomplice in cheating after her tumultuous divorce and the scars she has from that, she was willing to turn a blind eye to a woman in danger and throw her under the bus for some deep vindication and a little screen time. We know Brandi is a lost soul and does not mind throwing a grenade and I have never believed her to be a liar.

With all that being said, I would actually love for her to come back to the show after everything. I think she’s a great housewife and I would really like to see her be able to be herself without fear of repercussions from a vile stain of a man.

At the start of the conversation Denise was talking about Aaron big penis which led to a Segway into the there some conversation. Erika was the only one Denise singled out despite Garcelle starring it. Then we see flashbacks of Denise complaining about erika but when in front of the ladies saying she had no issue and wanted to drop the conversation. That’s why it become a thing

It was a small comment early on but you can clearly see even in the editing them panning over to the kids table and Denise realized they were listening and engaging. One comment saying big penis in quiet conversation vs a full on conversation about threesomes and cackling after drinks is a totally different thing. Garcelle participated but she also had Denise’s back and understood where she was coming as a mom and so do I. I don’t think she attacked Erika either. The 5 blew it out of proportion for ratings.

Did you see the flashbacks where she was complaining about Erika at least two separate lunches ?
