The Real Housewives franchise has become a cultural phenomenon, captivating audiences with its drama-filled episodes and larger-than-life personalities. One of the most popular installments of the franchise is The Real Housewives of Potomac, which follows the lives of wealthy women in Maryland. As fans eagerly await the premiere of Season 8, cast member Ashley Darby has teased some “sad” clashes that are set to unfold. Darby, known for her outspoken nature and willingness to stir up controversy, recently hinted at what viewers can expect from the upcoming season.
She was interviewed recently by The Messenger and Ashley revealed a few details about what we will see during season 8. She even said she was surprised at some of what she heard or saw. Ashley said, “There were a lot of surprises for me. Some of my relationships shattered. Some of my relationships grew. I think that happens really every season, but this season in particular as I am navigating this field of being newly single and being a mom, there are certain people who I gravitated toward, and there are other people who maybe kind of grew further apart. It was really sad to see how some of my relationships changed.”
It seems that the cast has let go of certain relationships and Ashley is not too surprised at this due to how season 7 didn’t clear any of the tensions between cast members. Ashley said, “It’s unfortunate. The reunion last year gave an indication as to where relationships lie and that sort of tension, it didn’t go away. If anything, I think it’s become exacerbated, and it was rough. It was really rough.” Ashley feels the season 8 trailer will shed some light on what will happen. “It’s gonna be very spicy. It’s definitely a roller coaster of emotion. There are some happy moments and sad moments and some anger. It just really runs the gamut.”
This revelation that Ashley shared has only fueled anticipation for the new season, as fans speculate about what could possibly lead to such intense conflicts. Explosive arguments and deep-rooted rivalries have marked the show’s previous seasons, so it is no surprise that Season 8 promises more of the same.
