Speaker 1 (00:03):
Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
favorite shows from the Real Housewives in Atlanta, New Jersey
and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise and
Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from the
Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset, in
(00:27):
addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or
scripted as well. Hey, rain drops on today's episode of
Reality with the King, we are getting into Miami. Mondays, Yes,
run of applause. Baby, what a great show to start
(00:49):
off a week. Baby. I love this show and this
episode marks the reason why. So let's just get right
into it. In this episode, a lot of things happen.
Number one, congratulations to Larca Pippen who has moved into
her new home and although it is under construction, my
love Larsa said, listen, I am going to move in
(01:11):
anyway that I'm going to make sure to invite the
girls over to receive housewarming gifts and to dish some tea.
So Stephanie at Alexia go to Lars's pretty much pajama
party and in this episode, they start to talk about
the fact that Alexia is still dating Todd, which to
(01:39):
me begs the question what is really going on between
Alexi and Todd. So one of the rumors out there
that I want us to talk about rain drops, is
the fact that allegedly they're saying the reason why Todd
(02:01):
filed for divorce from Alexia is because he allegedly has
financial issues, and that one of the ways to protect
Alexia from this is to not be married, because, as
you all know, if you're married, your partner's depth is
(02:24):
your depth, and that can be a lot of unfortunate
things to happen. So that is the word on the curve,
which listen, that was also said when Tom Girardi and
Erica Jane got a divorce, and those were rumors that
(02:44):
they were saying when she filed. As we all know,
Tom Girardi is now in jail. He's in prison rather
for stealing money from orphans and clients and using that
money to who fund his lifestyle, his now ex wife's lifestyle,
(03:06):
And those were the things that people were saying as
to why Erica filed. So it's plausible to believe that, Okay,
because this is what happened. In April twenty twenty four,
Todd filed for divorce, citing and reconcilable differences. Alexia at
that time expressed shock and heartbreak over the filing. So
(03:27):
that was in April, Okay. A year later is when
the couple finalized the divorce after reaching an amicable settlement. Okay.
Now they're officially divorced as the March of this year. Okay.
(03:49):
But what's been so interesting about all of this is
a lot of people, like I said, believe that this
is a little bit sus and by sus that means
rain drops, suspit shifts, Okay, suspicious. And the reason why
it seems to be suspicious is because this is the
(04:14):
stuff that we're going to talk about, and this is
all alleged, rain drops, all alleged, all alleged, all alleged,
all alleged. When he filed for divorce, they were also
saying that, Okay, if you file and you surprise Alexa
with it, why are you guys still dating? The rumor
(04:37):
on the street is the fact that they're alleging that
there was a notion that Todd, who was paying fifty
thousand dollars a month, to rent a property that he
did not own and had some issues with his businesses
(04:57):
were sort of the tip of the iceberg in terms
of people being like, Okay, what is really going on
when it comes to this relationship. Okay, because Todd is
on TikTok giving financial device. As you all know, he's
like this mega real estate person, this real estate mogul,
(05:20):
and all of these things. But they all found the
suspicions that he was spending all this money a month
renting instead of buying because Todd does not believe in ownership.
He because I watch his TikTok, so Todd likes to
say that, which I understand his point of view. He's like, look,
I'd rather rent than own because I don't have to
pay for property taxes. I don't have to pay for
(05:42):
things being fixed. I low key understand that, but a
lot of people do not. Now. What is so interesting
is in June of twenty twenty five, so June of
this year, Todd dropped four point two million dollars on
(06:04):
his own luxury Miami apartment. It was finalized. So when
the divorce was finalized in March, three months later, Todd
(06:25):
drops four point two million dollars on his own luxury apartment. Okay,
does that sound suspicious, Let's continue on. So the apartment
is three thousand square foot, It has three bid rooms,
(06:49):
four and a half bathrooms. Okay, it also has floor
to siling. I feel like this is an episode of
Million Dollar Listing. It has floor to silling windows of Okay,
it's it's it's a nice it's a nice house. Well
not if my house. Child's a nice apartment. It's a
(07:09):
very nice apartment. So one thing that we learned this
season is we still don't understand why Todd decided to
file for divorce. That seems to be the biggest thing. Now,
the couple did a knowledge that they did sign a
prena before they marry in twenty twenty one, So we
(07:30):
don't know exactly what Alexia walked away with, and she
walked away with any sort of funds or if there
was something that you know, happened where she walked away
with nothing. These are things we just don't know. But again,
we still don't know the real reason as to why
(07:52):
this is even happening now as this season this taping.
What we do know in this episode is they talked
about how they were on the Thanksgiving break, so rain
drops timeline okay, which means as we're watching this episode,
this episode clearly was taped around November of twenty twenty four,
(08:16):
so they're still going through the process of divorce because
remember the divorce was not finalized until two thousand. I'm sorry,
the divorce was not finalized until March of twenty twenty five.
So what we're watching in real time as they're filming
it is November twenty twenty four, so that's around four
(08:37):
months before the divorce was finalized. And in this scene
and in the season, Alexai does talk about how her
heart is pulling her back and forth when it comes
to Todd. Todd definitely is an attractive guy. He appears
to be a successful businessman, but based on Marisol's account
(08:59):
in earlier episodes, her best friend does not like Todd
at all, and Marisol has mentioned how she doesn't like
how Todd speaks to Alexia. When your best friend doesn't
like your spouse, to me, that is a red flag.
If your best friend has been friends with you for
(09:22):
half your life, because they know you better than anybody
and they want what's best for you. I believe that
Marissol also believes in Look, your marriage is your marriage.
I'm not here to tell you how to be a
partner or a wife or how your husband should act.
But I do feel like Marisol can also see the
signs that is concerning. No one on that cast appears
(09:46):
to like Todd, and that to me, once again, is
red flag number two. When none of your friends like
your partner, that's when you, as a woman or a man,
or they have to sit back and be like, Okay, okay,
are they seeing something that I'm not seeing? Because that
is super plausible. It's so plausible. I think Alexia is
(10:08):
a nice woman. She's gorgeous. I also watched the Netflix
documentary Okay that featured Alexia and how she was pretty
much in a relationship with this drug lord it was
called the Cocaine Cowboys, the Kings of Miami. Uh huh,
(10:31):
And how Alexi was married to Pedro, who was an
associate of drug lords in Miami during the eighties. Uh huh. Yeah,
So Alexa is used to a man. This is so shady.
But about being shady, Alexia is used to a man
of means. Now, whether not those means are legal, different story,
(11:01):
But Alexia is a woman who likes to be taken
care of. Alexia seems like a woman who likes a
man who is wealthy. Now, Todd, from my research, doesn't
have any sort of lawsuits out there that dictates his
man to be a fraud. So that's amazing, right, So
(11:25):
we're happy with that. But what's interesting is Todd has
recently slammed the producers of Miami Housewives for, in his words, lies, bullying,
and behind the scenes extortion tactics and said that enough
(11:45):
is enough. He did this long video child maybe twenty minutes.
I believe have twenty minutes take a podcast, let alone
watch it. Okay, but the real estate Muggle did say
that he, you know, was threatening to take lead action
against the show, which to me, as I watched the show,
I don't think the producers did anything to warrant this.
(12:07):
I think at the end of the day, the women
on the show are expressing their experience with Todd. But
I don't think you should blame the producers for that.
And I like Todd. Like I said, I think Todd
is a great TikToker, but I will disagree with him.
(12:27):
I would not blame the production on anything that the
ladies are saying based on their experience. Based on their experience,
I would say that. So one thing in this scene
that occurred in this past week's episode is the fact
that Larsa told Alexia that she feels like Todd is
(12:50):
going to bamboozle her. And that's a strong statement. So
once again, you can't blame the production for those words.
That's what Larces said out of her own mouth based
on her experience, based on what she has seen. These
ladies on Miami Housewives are real friends in real life
(13:10):
where there's no cameras around. So again, who is the
real Todd? Is he slim shady? I mean who knows?
But will the real Toad stand up? We need to
know you're a fraud or a friend? Are you a foe?
Or like? What are you? Because based on the constab
these women, they don't like you, bro, I like you
(13:33):
on TikTok. I mean that's all I can say. Now,
speaking of women who likes to be taken care of,
we have to get into Lisa and Jody. This is
another episode and scene that was cringe because Lisa is
(13:55):
pretty much begging Jody to propose to her. Lisa the
big that you got from office depot. It's not even
dry yet, and you are already trying to get married again.
Now listen, I'm a libra, okay, and as a libra,
(14:17):
I also love a relationship. I also love you know, love,
And I also don't want to date a round. I mean,
I understand that. But let's be clear. You just got
(14:37):
out of a messy as divorce. Okay, after being married
for thirteen years. You were married to the successful plastic
search excuse me, surgeon for thirteen years. Your divorce was
(15:09):
finalized in November. Okay. So remember guys what I said
earlier as we're watching this episode. This episode was filmed
in November. Okay, their divorce was finalized raindrops November fifteenth.
(15:40):
After being married for thirteen years. You haven't waited six months,
and you are already talking about getting married again. And
listen when it comes to Jody, Look, I don't have
I have with Jody. I don't know Jody. I know
(16:02):
Jody based on the show Child. I know. I call
him crazy eyes, but he has crazy eyes. I have
a big forehead. My voice sounds like it should be
part of the cartoon network. People talk about People say
I saw like Stempy from rena stempy child. It is
what it is, so listen, I fight out to be
fun shade. I don't give a shit. Jody has crazy eyes.
(16:26):
Ramona Singer has crazy eyes. Like it's it's it is
what it is. But I'm gonna gag y'all. I'm actually
on Jody's side with this because he's pretty much telling Lisa,
like you rushing me to marry you, it's not gonna work.
(16:47):
And in his defense, and I agree with him, rain drops,
he said, Look, I don't know any man that could
be a part of what I have to be a
part of, whether it's getting into your girl friends, watching
you deal with this messy as divorce, The way you
talk to me, the way you chastise me. You know,
(17:08):
when I drive am, I'm standing by the door. You
need to get away. Lisa is a handful. Lisa acts
more like a child than her own children. I think
Lisa's a big kid, Okay, Lisa, clearly, And this is
why it's sad and Lisa, I do agree with Jody,
you need therapy. Lisa does not know who she is
(17:32):
without a man. Lisa does not know who she is
without a man. Okay, that's what it is. And when
I say that, it's evident. Thirteen years of marriage, this
man allegedly cheated on you, and allegedly cheating on you
(17:55):
with women that he invited to parties that allegedly you
knew about, that allegedly you were a part of, allegedly
allegedly allegedly, I don't know, Lisa Child, those were the
words on the streets. Lisa has denied it. In her defense.
Your divorce was finalized in November, and weeks later, you
(18:16):
still want to get married. What is farm with you
being alone? What is wrong with you getting to know
yourself when you are married to a person, especially, I
have to call it, like I said, when a woman
is married to a powerful man and she truly is
a real housewife. Okay, for thirteen years, your identity unfortunately
(18:42):
or fortunately, depending on how you like it. But for
thirteen years Lisa's world was Lenny the house and for
half of her marriage, those the kids. Yes, they said
Lisa was a model, but let's be clear, Lisa wasn't
(19:02):
walking down the runway like Cynthia Bailey, honey, like, come on,
no shade. You know, maybe print, but you know Lisa
was taking care of She then meets Jody, another man
of means, who presumably is low key taking care of
(19:25):
her too. I don't think Lisa pays for herme dinner.
I don't think Lisa, you know, puts off her purse
to pay for anything when she's with Jody. Neither should she.
Neither should she. I want Lisa to get to know
who Lisa is because for thirteen years you were this
man's wife, and I want for Lisa to know who
(19:47):
she is without being a wife. And what's scary is
Lisa is so focused on getting married again because she
feels like being married to a man is her security blanket.
And I want Lisa to think more of herself than
to be someone's wife. It's beautiful to be a wife.
(20:08):
It's amazing to have a man in your life, all
those things you should want and desire, and I'm here
for it. I'm only saying this because, my girl, you
just got divorced and a man you thought you knew
treated you in a way that was so deplorable that
you should get to know Jody a little bit more
(20:31):
so you do not make the same mistakes twice shout
out to Nannie Leek's best selling book. Okay, read Nannie
Leek's book, Never make the same mistakes twice, baby, because
that's what I'm afraid for. When it comes to Lisa,
I really am. I'm scared for my girl. I am.
(20:56):
Now the girls have a part and Stephanie decided to
take Marasol aside. And baby, you can tell Marisola her
Gucci outfit was not here for Stephanie. So Stephanie is
still mad that someone said no to her. Stephanie child
is still mad that she was rejected. Baby, that's all
(21:18):
it is. Stephanie's ego was bruised when Marisol and a
Legacy I decided not to be a plus fourteen on
her flight. Stephanie is not used to being rejected, which
is why, in my opinion, she and her sisters don't
get along. Stephanie runs the show and guess what, as
(21:39):
a boss, I get it. However, these friends who can
buy you can buy everything else in life. You can
buy the Blanche Debeaux outfits, you can buy the planes,
trains and automobiles, but baby, you can't buy friends. And
that was Marisol's clocking. Marisol comes from money, so your
(22:00):
money does not impress her. Marissol is friends with Richard Branson.
Do you really think she looks at Stephanie like, oh
my gosh, I'm so happy you're part of the show. No,
Marissow has been around wealth her whole life, and that's
what Stephanie's like clicking. The other girls may be impressed
by it, and guess what Carlos Kik is impressed by too.
(22:22):
I'm not turning down a fly on Stephanie's plane. You know, Stephanie,
if you're listening, I would love to you and your
private plane just call me. I need to get to
know you better because we gotta have a rough conversation.
I like Stephanie. I think stephan is great for the show.
But Stephanie, I have lots of questions and I need
(22:43):
you to answer that. So all the fans of Stephanie
slot of her dms, let her know that Carlos King,
hosts of the award winning successful Reality with the King
podcast dar Lake, it's requesting an interview or her private
plane so she could fly me around TROPPI guitar because
I need to really get to know Stephanie. But I digress. Okay. Nevertheless, nevertheless,
(23:06):
never the last, okay. Marassol tells Stephanie like, look, baby,
I do not want to be friends with someone where
they talk about money, and that's fair. I am on
marosol side, Stephanie. I don't know if the wax was
(23:32):
built up in the ear, if you were listening to
Doctor Dre beads and an effect of your hearing. But Stephanie,
for your response to be you don't talk about money, girl?
What in the de lulu hell is going on here? Stephanie,
you talk about money so much. I thought you were
(23:52):
Susie Orman. That's how much you talk about money. You
talk about money me so much. I thought your last
thing was chased. I thought your last name was Fargo.
I thought your last name was Bank of America. I
thought you were a National advisor. I thought you were
for Todd Napola, Alexia's ex. That's how much you do
(24:12):
talk about money, Stephanie. You talk about money like you
print them out of a Xerox machine in your office.
You talk about money as if it grows on trees
around your palatial estate. My love, your name should be
money bag. Stephanie. Shout out to the rapper money bag yo,
(24:33):
I felt like you should have started in the movie
Money Talks with Chris Tucker, like you talk about money relentlessly,
which is why I appreciated the shady editor who flashed
back to the multiple times baby, where you do talk
(24:56):
about money. You talk about money a great deal, and
Marisol clocked it. And in Marissol's defense, it is exhausting
because you're more than that, Stephanie, and you're better than that.
And listen, I strongly believe in this the Lord giveth
(25:19):
and take it away. And what I don't want from
Stephanie is to get so caught up in the money
that that's her sole identity. Because one thing about these
house spots in Miami, their identity is not caught up
in the money. Now, it may be caught up another
(25:40):
places child, but it's not called up their money. And
that's the one thing I will give these girls. And
that's why it is a turn off Stephanie when it
comes to a Marisol, because she's been around money her
whole life, so what you're doing does not impress her
the way I'm impresses Audreana. Okay, no shay. Speaking of Adriana,
(26:04):
Adrianna and Julia's friendship for some reason is not on
the up and up, and I don't understand why. I'm
confused and I'm dazed because I'm not sure what happened.
Audriana is still on this rampage about using the word ratchet.
(26:26):
She's saying she said wretched. Look tomato tomato. Adrianna, like
I said my last podcast, does have a very strong accent.
Do I think she meant wretched? No, but I would
give her the benefit of the doubt that look, it
was a great way of explaining your case. I'm not
mad at it because look, ninety nine percent of housewives
(26:47):
are liars anyway, so who am I to judge Adrianna
for being who she's supposed to be. You know, it's
a fun lie. It's not a dangerous one like most
of the housewives that have done in the past. Anyways,
this lie, to me is fun. It's silly. I come like,
(27:08):
run with it. I think it's fine. But I'm kind
of over it, and so is kick Key, which why
Kikey left. KICKI left so much. She acts at Amazon
driving to take her home. I love Kicky, I love
Kikey down boots. She is hilarious, But I digress. Audrianna
feels like Julia does not have her back and she's
not understanding why. I think Julia just realizes you're exhausting.
(27:30):
Audrianna is great television. Audriana, to me is one of
the best additions. Well, she's a OG, but I'm just
saying I think Audriana is an amazing and well she's
not a housewive Carlos. Audrianna is an amazing reality star.
Let's just say that. I think she's fantastic. I literally
have no notes for Audriana. I think she is fan fuckingtastic.
(27:52):
She's an amazeazing reality star and that show needs her
for sure. So Audriana decided to play the move and
selecting a black friend named Carol. Audrianna selected a black
(28:16):
friend of hers named Carol to half her back. As
if Audriana and Carol did I talk about it before
the taping of this scene, because I think Audrianna realized, Okay,
I'm gonna tell you my theory. Okay, when Audrianna said
(28:36):
Ratchet r A T C H E T. I believe
she said Ratchet is fine. I do believe she didn't
realize the racial undertones of it. I believe a producer
allegedly that is a sign to Audrianna told her when
when Audrina asked her, like, why is it a big
Dodo said the ratchet I think a producer said to her,
(28:59):
you taught a black woman she's ratchet that has racial undertones.
Are y'all listening? Someone told her Adriana, the reason why
Keiki went off the way she did is because the
word of ratchet has racial undertones, and that's the reason
(29:21):
why Adriana is running around saying ki Key called her
a racist. The logitective test said, that's a lie. Keiki
never called you that. No one thinks you're racist, Adriana.
But because someone said it has racial undertone, you took
that ass. Oh my god, she's tripping because she thinks
I'm racist. So then what you did? You called your
(29:44):
black girlfriend. Carol told her about it. Carol got her
makeup done, honey, her hair dune child, put on her
best off for baby, and said let's go Fim got
her mic on set by the bar and everything, honey,
sipping her spicy margarita with the thought on them memory. Okay,
the fact that this is listen, I think this shit
(30:07):
is hilarious. The fact that Audriatta was like, Carol, tell
Kiki what you said. I want you to hear from
my black friend. I'm like, this cannot be real life.
That's why Gerdie looked at Audria said not you selected
the only other black girl in this room to have
your back. And I don't blame KICKI for leaving. I
(30:28):
don't blame Julia for talking to Audrian the way she did. Audriana,
you did the most. Just say, Kiki, I did not
know the ramifications of that word. As you know, English
is my third language, because at this point I don't
even think it's her second language. Child She didn't know,
and I think everybody would have been like, Okay, fine,
(30:51):
I apologize, let's move on. But the fact that she's
walking around this party telling everybody that Kiki said she's
racist is incredibly dumb but hilarious at the same time.
So anyways, overall, I love this episode. It gets a
ten out of a ten. It wasn't really really really
(31:13):
really really really really really really good episode. I love
it so much. I love this show. And look, my
hope truly is that whatever bomb that was dropped after
reunion that they keep teasing, it's worth the Weight. Reality
(31:37):
with the King is executive produced by me Carlos King,
produced by Lizzie Nimitz, and a partnership with the Lack
Effect Network. You can also find us on my YouTube
channel at the Carlos King Underscore
Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
favorite shows from the Real Housewives in Atlanta, New Jersey
and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise and
Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from the
Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset, in
(00:27):
addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or
scripted as well. Hey, rain drops on today's episode of
Reality with the King, we are getting into Miami. Mondays, Yes,
run of applause. Baby, what a great show to start
(00:49):
off a week. Baby. I love this show and this
episode marks the reason why. So let's just get right
into it. In this episode, a lot of things happen.
Number one, congratulations to Larca Pippen who has moved into
her new home and although it is under construction, my
love Larsa said, listen, I am going to move in
(01:11):
anyway that I'm going to make sure to invite the
girls over to receive housewarming gifts and to dish some tea.
So Stephanie at Alexia go to Lars's pretty much pajama
party and in this episode, they start to talk about
the fact that Alexia is still dating Todd, which to
(01:39):
me begs the question what is really going on between
Alexi and Todd. So one of the rumors out there
that I want us to talk about rain drops, is
the fact that allegedly they're saying the reason why Todd
(02:01):
filed for divorce from Alexia is because he allegedly has
financial issues, and that one of the ways to protect
Alexia from this is to not be married, because, as
you all know, if you're married, your partner's depth is
(02:24):
your depth, and that can be a lot of unfortunate
things to happen. So that is the word on the curve,
which listen, that was also said when Tom Girardi and
Erica Jane got a divorce, and those were rumors that
(02:44):
they were saying when she filed. As we all know,
Tom Girardi is now in jail. He's in prison rather
for stealing money from orphans and clients and using that
money to who fund his lifestyle, his now ex wife's lifestyle,
(03:06):
And those were the things that people were saying as
to why Erica filed. So it's plausible to believe that, Okay,
because this is what happened. In April twenty twenty four,
Todd filed for divorce, citing and reconcilable differences. Alexia at
that time expressed shock and heartbreak over the filing. So
(03:27):
that was in April, Okay. A year later is when
the couple finalized the divorce after reaching an amicable settlement. Okay.
Now they're officially divorced as the March of this year. Okay.
(03:49):
But what's been so interesting about all of this is
a lot of people, like I said, believe that this
is a little bit sus and by sus that means
rain drops, suspit shifts, Okay, suspicious. And the reason why
it seems to be suspicious is because this is the
(04:14):
stuff that we're going to talk about, and this is
all alleged, rain drops, all alleged, all alleged, all alleged,
all alleged. When he filed for divorce, they were also
saying that, Okay, if you file and you surprise Alexa
with it, why are you guys still dating? The rumor
(04:37):
on the street is the fact that they're alleging that
there was a notion that Todd, who was paying fifty
thousand dollars a month, to rent a property that he
did not own and had some issues with his businesses
(04:57):
were sort of the tip of the iceberg in terms
of people being like, Okay, what is really going on
when it comes to this relationship. Okay, because Todd is
on TikTok giving financial device. As you all know, he's
like this mega real estate person, this real estate mogul,
(05:20):
and all of these things. But they all found the
suspicions that he was spending all this money a month
renting instead of buying because Todd does not believe in ownership.
He because I watch his TikTok, so Todd likes to
say that, which I understand his point of view. He's like, look,
I'd rather rent than own because I don't have to
pay for property taxes. I don't have to pay for
(05:42):
things being fixed. I low key understand that, but a
lot of people do not. Now. What is so interesting
is in June of twenty twenty five, so June of
this year, Todd dropped four point two million dollars on
(06:04):
his own luxury Miami apartment. It was finalized. So when
the divorce was finalized in March, three months later, Todd
(06:25):
drops four point two million dollars on his own luxury apartment. Okay,
does that sound suspicious, Let's continue on. So the apartment
is three thousand square foot, It has three bid rooms,
(06:49):
four and a half bathrooms. Okay, it also has floor
to siling. I feel like this is an episode of
Million Dollar Listing. It has floor to silling windows of Okay,
it's it's it's a nice it's a nice house. Well
not if my house. Child's a nice apartment. It's a
(07:09):
very nice apartment. So one thing that we learned this
season is we still don't understand why Todd decided to
file for divorce. That seems to be the biggest thing. Now,
the couple did a knowledge that they did sign a
prena before they marry in twenty twenty one, So we
(07:30):
don't know exactly what Alexia walked away with, and she
walked away with any sort of funds or if there
was something that you know, happened where she walked away
with nothing. These are things we just don't know. But again,
we still don't know the real reason as to why
(07:52):
this is even happening now as this season this taping.
What we do know in this episode is they talked
about how they were on the Thanksgiving break, so rain
drops timeline okay, which means as we're watching this episode,
this episode clearly was taped around November of twenty twenty four,
(08:16):
so they're still going through the process of divorce because
remember the divorce was not finalized until two thousand. I'm sorry,
the divorce was not finalized until March of twenty twenty five.
So what we're watching in real time as they're filming
it is November twenty twenty four, so that's around four
(08:37):
months before the divorce was finalized. And in this scene
and in the season, Alexai does talk about how her
heart is pulling her back and forth when it comes
to Todd. Todd definitely is an attractive guy. He appears
to be a successful businessman, but based on Marisol's account
(08:59):
in earlier episodes, her best friend does not like Todd
at all, and Marisol has mentioned how she doesn't like
how Todd speaks to Alexia. When your best friend doesn't
like your spouse, to me, that is a red flag.
If your best friend has been friends with you for
(09:22):
half your life, because they know you better than anybody
and they want what's best for you. I believe that
Marissol also believes in Look, your marriage is your marriage.
I'm not here to tell you how to be a
partner or a wife or how your husband should act.
But I do feel like Marisol can also see the
signs that is concerning. No one on that cast appears
(09:46):
to like Todd, and that to me, once again, is
red flag number two. When none of your friends like
your partner, that's when you, as a woman or a man,
or they have to sit back and be like, Okay, okay,
are they seeing something that I'm not seeing? Because that
is super plausible. It's so plausible. I think Alexia is
(10:08):
a nice woman. She's gorgeous. I also watched the Netflix
documentary Okay that featured Alexia and how she was pretty
much in a relationship with this drug lord it was
called the Cocaine Cowboys, the Kings of Miami. Uh huh,
(10:31):
And how Alexi was married to Pedro, who was an
associate of drug lords in Miami during the eighties. Uh huh. Yeah,
So Alexa is used to a man. This is so shady.
But about being shady, Alexia is used to a man
of means. Now, whether not those means are legal, different story,
(11:01):
But Alexia is a woman who likes to be taken
care of. Alexia seems like a woman who likes a
man who is wealthy. Now, Todd, from my research, doesn't
have any sort of lawsuits out there that dictates his
man to be a fraud. So that's amazing, right, So
(11:25):
we're happy with that. But what's interesting is Todd has
recently slammed the producers of Miami Housewives for, in his words, lies, bullying,
and behind the scenes extortion tactics and said that enough
(11:45):
is enough. He did this long video child maybe twenty minutes.
I believe have twenty minutes take a podcast, let alone
watch it. Okay, but the real estate Muggle did say
that he, you know, was threatening to take lead action
against the show, which to me, as I watched the show,
I don't think the producers did anything to warrant this.
(12:07):
I think at the end of the day, the women
on the show are expressing their experience with Todd. But
I don't think you should blame the producers for that.
And I like Todd. Like I said, I think Todd
is a great TikToker, but I will disagree with him.
(12:27):
I would not blame the production on anything that the
ladies are saying based on their experience. Based on their experience,
I would say that. So one thing in this scene
that occurred in this past week's episode is the fact
that Larsa told Alexia that she feels like Todd is
(12:50):
going to bamboozle her. And that's a strong statement. So
once again, you can't blame the production for those words.
That's what Larces said out of her own mouth based
on her experience, based on what she has seen. These
ladies on Miami Housewives are real friends in real life
(13:10):
where there's no cameras around. So again, who is the
real Todd? Is he slim shady? I mean who knows?
But will the real Toad stand up? We need to
know you're a fraud or a friend? Are you a foe?
Or like? What are you? Because based on the constab
these women, they don't like you, bro, I like you
(13:33):
on TikTok. I mean that's all I can say. Now,
speaking of women who likes to be taken care of,
we have to get into Lisa and Jody. This is
another episode and scene that was cringe because Lisa is
(13:55):
pretty much begging Jody to propose to her. Lisa the
big that you got from office depot. It's not even
dry yet, and you are already trying to get married again.
Now listen, I'm a libra, okay, and as a libra,
(14:17):
I also love a relationship. I also love you know, love,
And I also don't want to date a round. I mean,
I understand that. But let's be clear. You just got
(14:37):
out of a messy as divorce. Okay, after being married
for thirteen years. You were married to the successful plastic
search excuse me, surgeon for thirteen years. Your divorce was
(15:09):
finalized in November. Okay. So remember guys what I said
earlier as we're watching this episode. This episode was filmed
in November. Okay, their divorce was finalized raindrops November fifteenth.
(15:40):
After being married for thirteen years. You haven't waited six months,
and you are already talking about getting married again. And
listen when it comes to Jody, Look, I don't have
I have with Jody. I don't know Jody. I know
(16:02):
Jody based on the show Child. I know. I call
him crazy eyes, but he has crazy eyes. I have
a big forehead. My voice sounds like it should be
part of the cartoon network. People talk about People say
I saw like Stempy from rena stempy child. It is
what it is, so listen, I fight out to be
fun shade. I don't give a shit. Jody has crazy eyes.
(16:26):
Ramona Singer has crazy eyes. Like it's it's it is
what it is. But I'm gonna gag y'all. I'm actually
on Jody's side with this because he's pretty much telling Lisa,
like you rushing me to marry you, it's not gonna work.
(16:47):
And in his defense, and I agree with him, rain drops,
he said, Look, I don't know any man that could
be a part of what I have to be a
part of, whether it's getting into your girl friends, watching
you deal with this messy as divorce, The way you
talk to me, the way you chastise me. You know,
(17:08):
when I drive am, I'm standing by the door. You
need to get away. Lisa is a handful. Lisa acts
more like a child than her own children. I think
Lisa's a big kid, Okay, Lisa, clearly, And this is
why it's sad and Lisa, I do agree with Jody,
you need therapy. Lisa does not know who she is
(17:32):
without a man. Lisa does not know who she is
without a man. Okay, that's what it is. And when
I say that, it's evident. Thirteen years of marriage, this
man allegedly cheated on you, and allegedly cheating on you
(17:55):
with women that he invited to parties that allegedly you
knew about, that allegedly you were a part of, allegedly
allegedly allegedly, I don't know, Lisa Child, those were the
words on the streets. Lisa has denied it. In her defense.
Your divorce was finalized in November, and weeks later, you
(18:16):
still want to get married. What is farm with you
being alone? What is wrong with you getting to know
yourself when you are married to a person, especially, I
have to call it, like I said, when a woman
is married to a powerful man and she truly is
a real housewife. Okay, for thirteen years, your identity unfortunately
(18:42):
or fortunately, depending on how you like it. But for
thirteen years Lisa's world was Lenny the house and for
half of her marriage, those the kids. Yes, they said
Lisa was a model, but let's be clear, Lisa wasn't
(19:02):
walking down the runway like Cynthia Bailey, honey, like, come on,
no shade. You know, maybe print, but you know Lisa
was taking care of She then meets Jody, another man
of means, who presumably is low key taking care of
(19:25):
her too. I don't think Lisa pays for herme dinner.
I don't think Lisa, you know, puts off her purse
to pay for anything when she's with Jody. Neither should she.
Neither should she. I want Lisa to get to know
who Lisa is because for thirteen years you were this
man's wife, and I want for Lisa to know who
(19:47):
she is without being a wife. And what's scary is
Lisa is so focused on getting married again because she
feels like being married to a man is her security blanket.
And I want Lisa to think more of herself than
to be someone's wife. It's beautiful to be a wife.
(20:08):
It's amazing to have a man in your life, all
those things you should want and desire, and I'm here
for it. I'm only saying this because, my girl, you
just got divorced and a man you thought you knew
treated you in a way that was so deplorable that
you should get to know Jody a little bit more
(20:31):
so you do not make the same mistakes twice shout
out to Nannie Leek's best selling book. Okay, read Nannie
Leek's book, Never make the same mistakes twice, baby, because
that's what I'm afraid for. When it comes to Lisa,
I really am. I'm scared for my girl. I am.
(20:56):
Now the girls have a part and Stephanie decided to
take Marasol aside. And baby, you can tell Marisola her
Gucci outfit was not here for Stephanie. So Stephanie is
still mad that someone said no to her. Stephanie child
is still mad that she was rejected. Baby, that's all
(21:18):
it is. Stephanie's ego was bruised when Marisol and a
Legacy I decided not to be a plus fourteen on
her flight. Stephanie is not used to being rejected, which
is why, in my opinion, she and her sisters don't
get along. Stephanie runs the show and guess what, as
(21:39):
a boss, I get it. However, these friends who can
buy you can buy everything else in life. You can
buy the Blanche Debeaux outfits, you can buy the planes,
trains and automobiles, but baby, you can't buy friends. And
that was Marisol's clocking. Marisol comes from money, so your
(22:00):
money does not impress her. Marissol is friends with Richard Branson.
Do you really think she looks at Stephanie like, oh
my gosh, I'm so happy you're part of the show. No,
Marissow has been around wealth her whole life, and that's
what Stephanie's like clicking. The other girls may be impressed
by it, and guess what Carlos Kik is impressed by too.
(22:22):
I'm not turning down a fly on Stephanie's plane. You know, Stephanie,
if you're listening, I would love to you and your
private plane just call me. I need to get to
know you better because we gotta have a rough conversation.
I like Stephanie. I think stephan is great for the show.
But Stephanie, I have lots of questions and I need
(22:43):
you to answer that. So all the fans of Stephanie
slot of her dms, let her know that Carlos King,
hosts of the award winning successful Reality with the King
podcast dar Lake, it's requesting an interview or her private
plane so she could fly me around TROPPI guitar because
I need to really get to know Stephanie. But I digress. Okay. Nevertheless, nevertheless,
(23:06):
never the last, okay. Marassol tells Stephanie like, look, baby,
I do not want to be friends with someone where
they talk about money, and that's fair. I am on
marosol side, Stephanie. I don't know if the wax was
(23:32):
built up in the ear, if you were listening to
Doctor Dre beads and an effect of your hearing. But Stephanie,
for your response to be you don't talk about money, girl?
What in the de lulu hell is going on here? Stephanie,
you talk about money so much. I thought you were
(23:52):
Susie Orman. That's how much you talk about money. You
talk about money me so much. I thought your last
thing was chased. I thought your last name was Fargo.
I thought your last name was Bank of America. I
thought you were a National advisor. I thought you were
for Todd Napola, Alexia's ex. That's how much you do
(24:12):
talk about money, Stephanie. You talk about money like you
print them out of a Xerox machine in your office.
You talk about money as if it grows on trees
around your palatial estate. My love, your name should be
money bag. Stephanie. Shout out to the rapper money bag yo,
(24:33):
I felt like you should have started in the movie
Money Talks with Chris Tucker, like you talk about money relentlessly,
which is why I appreciated the shady editor who flashed
back to the multiple times baby, where you do talk
(24:56):
about money. You talk about money a great deal, and
Marisol clocked it. And in Marissol's defense, it is exhausting
because you're more than that, Stephanie, and you're better than that.
And listen, I strongly believe in this the Lord giveth
(25:19):
and take it away. And what I don't want from
Stephanie is to get so caught up in the money
that that's her sole identity. Because one thing about these
house spots in Miami, their identity is not caught up
in the money. Now, it may be caught up another
(25:40):
places child, but it's not called up their money. And
that's the one thing I will give these girls. And
that's why it is a turn off Stephanie when it
comes to a Marisol, because she's been around money her
whole life, so what you're doing does not impress her
the way I'm impresses Audreana. Okay, no shay. Speaking of Adriana,
(26:04):
Adrianna and Julia's friendship for some reason is not on
the up and up, and I don't understand why. I'm
confused and I'm dazed because I'm not sure what happened.
Audriana is still on this rampage about using the word ratchet.
(26:26):
She's saying she said wretched. Look tomato tomato. Adrianna, like
I said my last podcast, does have a very strong accent.
Do I think she meant wretched? No, but I would
give her the benefit of the doubt that look, it
was a great way of explaining your case. I'm not
mad at it because look, ninety nine percent of housewives
(26:47):
are liars anyway, so who am I to judge Adrianna
for being who she's supposed to be. You know, it's
a fun lie. It's not a dangerous one like most
of the housewives that have done in the past. Anyways,
this lie, to me is fun. It's silly. I come like,
(27:08):
run with it. I think it's fine. But I'm kind
of over it, and so is kick Key, which why
Kikey left. KICKI left so much. She acts at Amazon
driving to take her home. I love Kicky, I love
Kikey down boots. She is hilarious, But I digress. Audrianna
feels like Julia does not have her back and she's
not understanding why. I think Julia just realizes you're exhausting.
(27:30):
Audrianna is great television. Audriana, to me is one of
the best additions. Well, she's a OG, but I'm just
saying I think Audriana is an amazing and well she's
not a housewive Carlos. Audrianna is an amazing reality star.
Let's just say that. I think she's fantastic. I literally
have no notes for Audriana. I think she is fan fuckingtastic.
(27:52):
She's an amazeazing reality star and that show needs her
for sure. So Audriana decided to play the move and
selecting a black friend named Carol. Audrianna selected a black
(28:16):
friend of hers named Carol to half her back. As
if Audriana and Carol did I talk about it before
the taping of this scene, because I think Audrianna realized, Okay,
I'm gonna tell you my theory. Okay, when Audrianna said
(28:36):
Ratchet r A T C H E T. I believe
she said Ratchet is fine. I do believe she didn't
realize the racial undertones of it. I believe a producer
allegedly that is a sign to Audrianna told her when
when Audrina asked her, like, why is it a big
Dodo said the ratchet I think a producer said to her,
(28:59):
you taught a black woman she's ratchet that has racial undertones.
Are y'all listening? Someone told her Adriana, the reason why
Keiki went off the way she did is because the
word of ratchet has racial undertones, and that's the reason
(29:21):
why Adriana is running around saying ki Key called her
a racist. The logitective test said, that's a lie. Keiki
never called you that. No one thinks you're racist, Adriana.
But because someone said it has racial undertone, you took
that ass. Oh my god, she's tripping because she thinks
I'm racist. So then what you did? You called your
(29:44):
black girlfriend. Carol told her about it. Carol got her
makeup done, honey, her hair dune child, put on her
best off for baby, and said let's go Fim got
her mic on set by the bar and everything, honey,
sipping her spicy margarita with the thought on them memory. Okay,
the fact that this is listen, I think this shit
(30:07):
is hilarious. The fact that Audriatta was like, Carol, tell
Kiki what you said. I want you to hear from
my black friend. I'm like, this cannot be real life.
That's why Gerdie looked at Audria said not you selected
the only other black girl in this room to have
your back. And I don't blame KICKI for leaving. I
(30:28):
don't blame Julia for talking to Audrian the way she did. Audriana,
you did the most. Just say, Kiki, I did not
know the ramifications of that word. As you know, English
is my third language, because at this point I don't
even think it's her second language. Child She didn't know,
and I think everybody would have been like, Okay, fine,
(30:51):
I apologize, let's move on. But the fact that she's
walking around this party telling everybody that Kiki said she's
racist is incredibly dumb but hilarious at the same time.
So anyways, overall, I love this episode. It gets a
ten out of a ten. It wasn't really really really
(31:13):
really really really really really really good episode. I love
it so much. I love this show. And look, my
hope truly is that whatever bomb that was dropped after
reunion that they keep teasing, it's worth the Weight. Reality
