RHOA-Oil, Tears & Crystals: A Grenada Rebirth

Podcast Summary: RHOA S16 E15 – “Chapter 3: The Rebirth”

The trip continues in Grenada, and the ladies are riding the emotional rollercoaster of sisterhood, secrets, and spiritual shedding.

After a wild night of twerking and bonding, everyone seems to be in good spirits—at least for a moment. Drew and Angela reflect on how nice it was to see the women truly having fun. But the cracks are starting to show in Britt and Kelli’s friendship, especially when Britt confronts Kelli about feeling unsupported, particularly over the donation drama and deeper emotional distance. Kelli wants Britt to rise to her purpose—but also resents her borrowing her glam squad. Their energy feels off, and neither is sure if the other still has her back.

Meanwhile, Phaedra stirs the pot with commentary about glam teams, fake friendships, and even a bit of anatomy humor that takes a wild turn involving hooded clits and KKK comparisons. Porsha, of course, fuels the chaos with jokes and giant sun hats.

While Shamea checks in on her daughter, Kelli receives heavy legal news from her attorney. Drew opens up about her almost-vow renewal, which never happened due to Ralph. Ironically, she and Kelli share the same meaningful date—August 21st.

The group heads to Jab Jab, a powerful cultural celebration rooted in Grenadian resistance history, where they oil up, wear black thongs, and release their inhibitions. It’s messy, meaningful, and liberating. Drew calls it a moment of community and connection; Phaedra simply calls it “blackity black.”

The next morning, there’s oil on everything—clothes, walls, and egos. Britt showers with Phaedra, who helps her clean every crevice (“spread your cheeks!”), and Kelli’s crystal breaks in half—symbolizing the end of a relationship. She decides to throw it into the ocean to let go of the pain.

72 hours later, Kelli is still not divorced… but her ex is in jail. And she hasn’t spoken to Britt since.
