Mia Thornton from The Real Housewives of Potomac just exposed her enemy and co-star Candiace Dillard for making some homophobic comments on Twitter. Feuds between ladies of Potomac can get pretty shady and series newbie Mia is keeping up the drama on her social media. Things between Mia and Candiace have stayed sour as RHOP season 6 plays out, but Mia just took their feud to the next level by posting problematic statements from Candiace's past.
The Potomac ladies’ feud kicked off when Mia joined the cast of RHOP. Mia offended Candiace by calling her music video shoot "low budget," to which Candiace hurled back an insult about Mia’s mother, who is a recovering addict. The housewives agreed Candiace went too far with her joke about Mia's mom, but Candiace doubled down on her insult which led to a screaming match during the ladies' vacation to the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It turns out Mia throwing salad at Candiace wasn't enough, so the Baltimore native is now taking to social media to get back at Candiace further.
Mia shared a post on Instagram from a fan page exposing Candiace's decade-old tweets. The gallery post displayed Candiace making anti-LGBTQ+ comments. In one tweet, Candiace speculated that her coworker was gay because he acted "strange." "I'm personally turned off by men who r too into fashion," Candiace wrote in 2010, "makes me think 'gay.'" Candiace also made a disparaging remark about The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Phaedra Park's husband in one tweet, again speculating if he was gay.
In her caption, Mia acknowledged that Candiace's tweets are "old," much like her past as a stripper that Candiace insults was also 10 years ago. "Why would someone keep bringing it up, gotta ask them," Mia wrote. Mia also pointed out Candiace's repeated attacks on Mia's appearance are often claims that she looks masculine. "If she wasn't homophobic she would NOT refer to full bodied women as handsome." Mia added a snap to the photoset of her latest product, a one-wick candle that reads: "Karma is a b****."
Candiace isn't the only housewife that's been exposed for making homophobic statements in the past. Executive producer Andy Cohen has called out cast members from different franchises for their offensive words at reunions before. With reports of Candiace being grilled at the reunion by guest host Nicki Minaj, perhaps Mia's shady post will put Candiace in the hot seat in future seasons. It seems the beef between Candiace and Mia will fuel their feud that may play out in The Real Housewives of Potomac season 7.
