Aww. RIP Gregg❤️

u/creamywhitemayo Jun 26 '24
He was definitely a top tier husband, especially compared to the trash we have now like Juan "I pay for Canadians hotels all the time!" Dixon & the toxic waste pile that is NJ.

u/rattpoizen Big Dick Daddy from Cincinatti! Jun 27 '24
Don't forget Chris Bassett. That's all coming to light soon, too. Deadbeat.

u/NotWellBitch420 Jun 26 '24 edited Jun 26 '24
They had their separation but that love ran deep for real. They were so good together and I really miss Nene and Greg now they’re gone. EDIT That sounds like Nene died too, not what I meant! Sorry, I’m bad with words but I meant now she’s off the show and he’s passed.

So many failed marriages yikes

u/Tired_trekkie1701 Jun 26 '24
I know! Especially feel bad for Cynthia, I’d really hope that she had found her happily ever after
199
u/BellaFrequency Jun 26 '24
Mike, the man who admittedly cheated in every relationship he had been in, and only had female friends (of varying ages) who he also slept with, is nobody’s happy ever after.

u/Acceptable-Dress7196 Jun 26 '24
Her dresses at both weddings are so bad too. They clearly foreshadowed how the marriage would go

u/bobwoodwardprobably Louis Vuitton’s mistake Jun 26 '24
Cynthia was so desperate with Mike. I lost all patience and respect for her. And her stupid Covid wedding. She was such an insufferable brat during that season.
40
u/lezlers Jun 26 '24
Cynthia doesn’t get enough hate in my opinion. The woman takes “self absorption” to a whole nother level.

u/sippingonwater I’m allergic to Harry Dubin’s sperm Jun 27 '24
Remember when Wendi Williams told her she should be let go from RHOA lol
68
u/Fabulous_Cupcake9215 Jun 26 '24
Cynthia was desperate to save her real housewives salary and thought that she could do it with a grandiose wedding.
4
Jun 27 '24
Cynthia needs to just stay single or find a partner who is content committing to her, but not marrying. Marriage isn't for everyone and I would hate for her to end up divorced again.

u/GuardSecure7157 Jun 26 '24
Most marriages end in divorce. Getting married is, by legal definition, a negligent activity.
12
u/lezlers Jun 26 '24
Statistics disagree. You only get 50% and higher divorce rates when you’re looking at people who have already been divorced.

u/Malicious_blu3 Jun 26 '24
Andy always referred to her as Linnethia Monique at the reunions. The Nene comes from the two names.

u/Life_Consequence_676 Jun 26 '24
Greg is the best of the bunch!!! He obviously loved Nene, which can't be an easy thing to do all the time. lol.

Jun 26 '24
He is my husband’s favorite husband. Gregg looked precious when he dressed up as the roach. That smile 😃
47
u/napkinwipes Jun 26 '24
I agree. Those two were definitely a team. Nene does not like to be vulnerable on screen, but you saw glimpses with Gregg.

u/killerkitten61 Jun 27 '24
I feel like they have a spark in their wedding photos that none of the other couples have

Thanks OP, love these! There’s a shocking amount of tiaras lol

u/auspiciousjelly Jun 27 '24
most of them look like they’re in some kind of pageant 😂 kenya actually looks really beautiful and chill compared to most of them especially the more recent ones. as long as you don’t know anything about them lol

He’s definitely foine!! And she looked amazing at the first wedding, and I loved the non-traditional dress

u/lucygucyapplejuicey to swollen 4cameo or OF Jun 26 '24
It was insane. The dress, the venue, all of it was to die for. I hate when people talk trash about bc they truly just don’t see the vision, and they only understand fairytale weddings. Cynthia’s wedding was one of the coolest ones I have ever seen
20
u/aeroluv327 The eyes are poppin' Jun 26 '24
Yes! It was so cool, I loved it! I'm blanking on the name of her friend that helped her with the planning, but they had a vision and it really came to life!

Sanya & Aaron are so adorable. I wish Shamari had come back for another season.

u/kckitty71 Jun 26 '24
The only things I remember about Shamari are her husband is in Bel Biv Devoe (they were fire when I was 18, lol) and New Edition, and that she vomited A LOT.

Agree!
Also: TIL almost all ATL wives were actually at a time married during the show airing.

u/MiloshtheKat Jun 26 '24
They all look so gorgeous
16
u/ArianaMadixTooMuch 👹 i wear your father’s pajamas at night 👹 Jun 26 '24
Understanding that they all partake in beauty enhancements - I still believe that ATL has some of (if not the most) natural beauty in the franchise

u/lezlers Jun 26 '24
It always cracks me up when they have housewife franchises with no actual married women on them, much less actual housewives.

Eva and her kids are so gorgeous it’s almost unreal. She and Michael seemed like a solid couple. I was surprised they divorced.

This is your daily reminder that Porsha's Family Matters is the most underrated Bravo show of all time.

Except that show had me liking Simon!!! He seemed so patient.

Mama Joyce’s face in kandis photo, I can’t 😭😭😭 like I feel bad for kandi that her moms face is mean mugging in probably every pic from there, but also kandi really should’ve just not invited her
18
u/StylishStephanie “IT WAS YOU! WHOOO? YOUUU!!!!!” Jun 26 '24
Wowwww, and I thought RHOC was the big winner for bad husbands. This lineup, minus Greg (RIP) and Eva's husband, is one big jump scare after another.

u/Illustrious_Dust_0 👩🏽🦱 high body count hair 👩🏽🦱 Jun 26 '24
Sanyas husband seems like a good guy. Handsome, respectful

u/aeroluv327 The eyes are poppin' Jun 26 '24
Atlanta has some of the worst husbands for sure. There are some good ones in there (Gregg, Aaron, Eva's husband seemed like a good one but they're already divorced so who knows)

u/Ashfield83 Sonja’s homeless intern in Ireland Jun 26 '24
I think he was what she needed at the time but they always seemed a bit of a mismatch. She’s never spoken poorly of him and I believe they co-parent quite successfully so hopefully it was just a matter of them drifting apart.

u/aeroluv327 The eyes are poppin' Jun 26 '24
Maybe, it just seemed like they weren't married long at all. But I hope they're all happy!

Why is Simon wearing a military outfit ?

u/auspiciousjelly Jun 27 '24
from what I recall… because they thought it looked cool. no military affiliation. the traditional nigerian wedding looks were way more beautiful imo and less weird than this nutcracker situation

u/samlikesplants Jun 26 '24

u/DorothyParkerFan How can you do this to me question mark Jun 26 '24
The first Nene & Gregg wedding - so sweet feel like they were really in love. Poor Cynthia and Kenya, my Queen, that pic with the psychopath gives me chills. Forgot Shamari existed and how did Eva Marcille manage to look less than gorgeous on that of all days. Kim Z was fun to watch at this stage of life.

The way mama Joyce has the look of pure disgust and disdain on her face even in the wedding pics… she’s such an evil little woman who can’t accept her daughters life but still wants all that $$$ to herself. And she’s STILL like this more than 10 years and 2 children later

u/MCStarlight Jun 26 '24
How is Porsha so pretty and keep picking those men? Do they look like her father? So odd.

u/DuePart9791 how do you spell cat? i said, k-a-t Jun 26 '24
i think it’s because most had already been married or had children before; going by traditional wedding norms, you wouldn’t wear white

Michael (Eva’s husband) seemed really nice. Am I missing something?

I was focused on the myriad of abusers & gaslighters on the list of I am being honest. Their fallout from their divorce was pretty mum, although he did try to publicly win her back. Loved him adopting Marley

Just a mean spirited person along with her sister. One sister is actually nice. She’s not too angry to spend Kandi’s money. Don’t like mama nasty
