After her conversation with Mia, she wasn't sure if her fellow castmate was throwing her party. However, Mia felt that although they had their differences over Karen preferring Wendy over her, she realized that the point of the trip was to celebrate her friend's birthday and that she should be there for her.While having dinner, the ladies discussed their favorite Karen moment. All were having a great time until the drama again started to cause chaos. In the middle of their conversation, Karen asked Ashley and Candiace if they were good with each other. The two ladies had previously had an altercation over Ashley accusing Candiace's husband Chris Bassett of flirting with her friend.Ashley revealed to her fellow RHOP ladies that Chris had gone on Twitter to bash her. While Gizelle confessed that it was probably also for her as she had made a similar accusation. This led to a disagreement between them and Candiace as the latter stood by defending her husband and noted that if he was being accused of something he hadn't done, then it is justified for him to vent out his frustration.jay@JaysRealityBlog#RHOP Season 7 Midseason trailer! 81501271#RHOP Season 7 Midseason trailer! 🔥 https://t.co/VGCZpZqhX9Gizelle and Ashley stood by their stance while Candiace remained frustrated. In a confessional, the latter said:"You all are so miserable with your long rolling hills of necks that you wanted to come for my marriage. It's just not today or never. I don't have time for any of that."When Ashley asked Candiace if she wasn't addressing the issue, the latter mentioned that she wouldn't address something that wasn't true and if anyone had to say something, they could. Mia then confessed that Candiace was defending her husband against the ladies but couldn't defend her when it came to Wendy.When Jacqueline tried to defend her then-best-friend Mia, Candiace revealed that she would not argue with "Mia's representative," and that she had enough. The RHOP star then confessed:"I am completely drained of the foolishness, the fakery, and -- and the bulls*** in this group. And at this point the group can lick the blackest part of my a**"Fans react to Candiace defending herself against the women on RHOPFans were glad to see Candiace defending herself and her husband from all of the accusations the women had to throw at her.
