The Real Housewives of Potomac are gearing up for the end of season 7 and the reunion that will follow. This season has been one of the most dramatic, with the cast fighting more than ever on their girls' trip and in their own backyards as all of their friendships are being tested.
As the season comes to a close, the group dynamics are quickly shifting, with the best storylines continuing all the way until the last episode and possibly beyond, as the reunion has not been filmed yet, but will be soon. Regardless of what the finale brings, the drama of season 7 seven has already proven to be one of the most entertaining yet.
10 Robyn's Wedding
Robyn getting remarried has been the talk of the Potomac cast and fans, as no details are being revealed about when and where Robyn will be remarrying Juan. With each question about the pending nuptials, Robyn deflects what is going on - to the point that Karen has speculated that it won't happen at all.
This storyline goes away and comes back when it is brought up by a fan or one of the other women as they wait for their invites, even though Robyn has said that they plan to elope. As the couple tries to come to a legal agreement, their wedding is still up in the air.
9 Karen Putting Together A Live Show
There's a lot to know about Karen Huger, the Grande Dame of RHOP. One of the things to know is that she did a live show in 2022 and fans get to see behind the scenes during the course of season 7.
This storyline lined up with Robyn and Gizelle's live show, which functioned as reconnaissance for Karen, so she could take notes on what to do (and what not to do) when it was time for her own show. Karen has always been one of the wittier cast members on The Real Housewives of Potomac and this storyline was enjoyable as she got to flex her comedic muscles.
8 Mia & Jacqueline
Mia and Jacqueline have an interesting friendship with fans and the cast questioning how close the pair really is. Their relationship has put Jacqueline in a position to be promoted from a friend of the show to a full-time cast for the 2023 Real Housewives season.
The dynamic duo was in charge of the Miami trip that quickly turned from a fun girls' holiday to a drama-filled disaster, putting the spotlight on their friendship even more. While Mia continues intense feuds with several of the cast, Jacqueline is there to defend her, which could put her in hot water with some of the other ladies as the season goes on.
7 Ashley's Divorce
Ashley divorcing Michael Darby was one of the first storylines fans got for season 7, and it has woven a thread throughout. As Ashley navigates her new reality, the other women have been questioning whether the divorce is really happening or if she is buying a house with her ex and how that will affect the process.
Seeing Ashley try and figure out her new lifestyle is something fans don't get to see in other locations and franchises until much later when they are comfortable enough to address it, making this a unique storyline for The Real Housewives of Potomac.
6 Gizelle Stirring The Pot
Gizelle has always been an entertaining member of the Potomac crew, and season 7 has been no different as she has involved herself in nearly every bit of drama. Even if she isn't involved in the issue directly, Gizelle is there to gather information and pass it on to the next person.
While it has landed her in some hot water, Gizelle has made the season more entertaining as she always ensures that everyone is on the same page and abreast of the hottest gossip within the group. As the resident pot stirrer, Gizelle has yet to be called out by anyone in public, but it is only a matter of time before Gizelle is put in the hot seat.
5 Wendy's Health
Dr. Wendy started the season by noting mild health issues that the doctor attributed to stress. Still, as the season has gone on, fans have seen Wendy's condition deteriorate and eventually land her in the hospital for surgery. This storyline has opened the door for conversation about self-care beyond skincare and beauty routines and taking diagnoses seriously regardless of how busy someone may be.
By being open about her health, Wendy can spearhead the movement of people taking pain seriously and may further her feud with Mia, as Mia's health was up for question at the start of the season and is still a talking point for the women.
4 Candiace's Husband Being Flirty
Candiace was named the best Real Housewives of Potomac cast member before and is on the way to being the most interesting of season seven as more women allege that her husband Chris has flirted with them, DM'ed them on Instagram, or was staring at them in a way that made them uncomfortable.
Candiace has defended Chris against every allegation, which has sparked heated fights with her fellow housewives as a few of them have said Chris said or messaged them. Since she joined the show, Chris and Candiace have played out their relationship for the cameras, but now that the show is testing it, fans wonder if Candiace will change her tune.
3 Robyn Being A Villain
Robyn has been one of the more level-headed cast members throughout her time on the show, but season seven has made Robyn the villain who is always prepared to call someone out. This was displayed when she started filming the fight between Mia and Wendy and when she started a fight in the dance studio.
Even though she called Wendy antagonistic, Robyn has sparked or escalated many conflicts or denied things that were shown as happening by production through flashbacks. With her fight with Wendy and Candiace, Robyn will surely be in more hot water as the season closes.
2 Robyn Exposing Candiace
When Robyn pulled out her wireless speaker at Karen's birthday dinner, viewers knew a fight was about to ignite. Candiace had already been under fire from the other ladies, but Robyn letting everyone hear how Candiace really felt about the rest of the cast was the last straw for some as they felt their friend hadn't really done anything wrong.
This incident showed Robyn's habit of starting fights with the other cast members as well as furthering the rift Candiace has been putting between herself and her friends.
1 Wendy Vs. Mia
Fans have learned a lot about RHOP's Mia Thornton since she became a part of the cast, and Wendy learned this season that if you have something negative to say about Mia's husband, she will fight back.
Mia and Wendy already had a complicated relationship before the Miami trip, but dinner the first night showed that these two are not meant to get along. This fight and storyline caused the whole trip to be a disaster, arguably the most memorable part of season 7, and left many of the cast divided.
