How about both sides of the story can be the truth? Sometimes when you're hurt, you just can see another perspective. Monifah wasn't aware what Nicci was going through; Nicci didn't share what she was experiencing behind the scenes. So in essence, no one has the skill set to read minds; so communication is key. Both ladies were responding to what they were experiencing.

I didn’t see it this way and I’m no Nicci fan . She can be very difficult it seems but I saw both of them as having a fault in the matter and the producers ran the same game on Nicci that they did with Mariah Shaw if Married to Medicine … it’s literally the same thing different parties. A lot of Drama just to take the show from both of them. They used the cast members to help run the play

This was good to see. I loved that show, and it was good to hear the back story of what happened. But I have to say it seems that Nicci isn't hearing Monifiah side of the story. Neither of them are mind readers. Nicci is upset that Monifiah didn't call her, but at the same time, she never reached out to her friend to tell her what was going on. She keeps pushing the blame to Monifiah, but she's not taking in accountability in the downfall of the friendship. It's annoying to watch but Nevertheless I'm glad they did this, and hopefully, they get back to the friendship.

However, NEITHER ONE communicated their issues with each other and the wedge in their friendship grew even bigger. It's just been a huge web of friends not communicating. It's unfortunate that it took 10 years for you beautiful ladies to get to this point!

In my humble opinion, I think this was needed. Production manipulated the direction of the show for ratings. I think their friendship is true because they thought enough of one another to sit down and mend what was broken. Life is like that. You look up and some folks you talked to all the time at some point in life become distant. It doesn’t mean you don’t love them. Things are just different. I pray they stick it out together this time around ! 🙏🏽❤️

Just like a tough piece of leather the Divas are well put together, I remember Nicki going through the drama and being attacked by the press due to being an executive producer of the show. She had a lot of weight to carry because the business didn't allow her to be honest with her friends. They are all strong personalities and they've had to fight a lot in this industry that swallows so many others whole. Selena had to go through things to in the media because of some of the business decisions. I'm happy that they had a chance to fix it. Thank God that they didn't allow the business to keep them in that sad space. Now it's time for Nicki and Selena to fix it. In addition to all other divas need to come to the show. God Bless!

I think Mo was caught off guard with the bts drama, and that caused her to fall back and then became close with someone Nicci was “beefing” with and it looked shady on Mo’s end.

I 🩵🩵 when I see us all together doing positive things makes me feel so good. I hope to see more stories about us for us without non Black people trying to get into our business and trying to tell our Stories. If feel what Nicci is saying, she couldn’t trust Mo, because she saw her being chummy with someone who talking 💩 behind her back with people who we come to find out was a whole scammer too, Shameless. I hope that they can hear each out , we as Black Women needs to stand up for each other.

They spending an hour going around circles and circles saying the same thing. But I understand both sides. However Nikki has to understand that not everybody reads the blogs. Giselle from real House of Potomac said she doesn't read social media. I don't even have to time res social media or look at the news so much so I don't know what the weather is going to be like when I exit my house. So she has to be able to give Monifah that. It is quite possible that she did not know. And what she doesn't know you cannot hold against her. Now you can hold against her that she did not come to you but if you're not making it easy then it's nobody to blame but yourself

Hear me out I believe Nicci and Syleena. Monifah wants to get along with everyone and not want to be in the middle of conflict or pick a side. When Monifah is alone with Syleena or Nicci she pick sides though which in my opinion is hypocritical. I put nothing past anyone and from the look of it Monifah didn’t have Nicci’s back. It’s been a minute I watched the the show so I can’t say who’s more right than the other one 😓

Great convo, however friendship REQUIRES communication, so failure of Nicci to speak to Monifah is not Monifah’s fault. Then, to expect people to ask you questions about things you repeatedly say you couldn’t talk about… which is likely very valid… doesn’t make much sense. Monifah is taking accountability, Nicci needs to as well. You cannot have a friendship in the presence of silence. Expecting people to read minds is ridiculous.

I’m glad Monifah owned up to her part in the disconnect. She should have trusted Nicci who has been riding for her for years. No disrespect but Syleena has a lot of growing up to do. If you look at the ‘original’ pilot, Syleena’s remarks implies she had a beef with Angie before the show began. As the show progressed, Syleena starts calling different people fraudulent but she never gave any proof beyond her accusations. And when she was to be held accountable for the wrong things she did, she kept blowing up on people and didn’t want to hear it. I just hope that everyone can come together, forgive, rebuild, and love each other. I really hate seeing Black women be portrayed as catty to each other. There are too many shows (Houswives, Love and Hip Hop, Hollywood Divas, etc) with that narrative
