Robyn Dixon has been held to a better customary than many Housewives. She was mainly compelled off of Actual Housewives of Potomac by fan outrage over the truth that she was hiding the truth of her relationship together with her husband, Juan Dixon, from viewers of the truth sequence. Whereas Bravo viewers needs to be effectively conscious at this level that hiding the soiled fact of a wedding or situationship is definitely a staple characteristic of the Actual Housewives franchise throughout the board. Dealing with the implications of mendacity to the digital camera is one other staple characteristic as effectively, however Robyn is likely one of the few who has been fired, seemingly over fan outrage.

The Dixons have all the time been adopted by dishonest rumors because the first episode of RHOP, when Robyn unpacked her wedding ceremony gown as a way to promote it. Robyn then reminisced together with her finest buddy Gizelle Bryant and defined in a confessional the small print of her divorce after infidelity on the a part of her NBA star husband. Robyn and Juan nonetheless lived collectively as they co-parented their youngsters, nonetheless, and the strains of their unconventional relationship had all the time been blurred. Juan is arguably the principle purpose that Robyn is not on RHOP. His refusal to behave like a dedicated monogamous man after the couple remarried on the sequence derailed Robyn’s actuality TV profession, and I hate to say it, however the followers obtained it unsuitable on this one. It seems, RHOP wants Robyn, as a result of with out her calm vitality, the sequence is totally off steadiness.

Even when she was hiding the ugly info about her relationship with Juan from the cameras, different Housewives have gotten away with the identical factor, even not too long ago. If Jenna Lyons can select to maintain her relationship off digital camera, whereas Jessel Taank is delusional about her personal marriage troubles on Actual Housewives of New York City, it appears merely unfair that Robyn was fired from RHOP for not dealing with her unconventional marriage being put beneath the truth TV microscope very effectively. With out Robyn’s calm demeanor and grounded strategy to battle decision, RHOP is beginning to founder. I miss Robyn’s affable humorousness, and I feel RHOP is worse with out her.

Season 9 of ‘RHOP’ Is In a Darkish Place

This season, Ashley and Gizelle appear decided to fire up battle within the group, and to me, it looks as if a method to deflect from the truth that there are massive parts of their lives not being shared on the sequence as effectively. Robyn was fired for mendacity concerning the particulars of her relationship with Juan, however Ashley and Gizelle are equally responsible of retaining the truth of their lives principally off-camera.Ashley’s divorce from her estranged husband, Michael Darby, continues to be ongoing, as she struggles to get any sort of settlement resulting from a seemingly iron-clad prenup. With these negotiations happening, Ashley can solely share conversations together with her lawyer outlining what she needs to attain within the divorce, with out revealing her emotions about her ex-spouse or the info of the authorized scenario.

Gizelle has been nice about sharing the truth of her household life together with her daughters on the sequence. However with out Robyn’s friendship, it appears to me that Gizelle’s principal objective on the sequence has been to trigger mischief, unfold gossip, and feud together with her forged mates. Do not get me unsuitable, that is iconic Housewives conduct, however there are occasions when Gizelle will get too messy even for actuality TV, meddling in individuals’s marriages and authorized troubles. Already this season, Gizelle has taken each alternative to throw shade at Karen Huger‘s authorized troubles over her current DUI, and to me, it’s beginning to really feel darkish. Gizelle and her fellow forged members are proper to level out the audacity of Karen showing on a actuality sequence and refusing to confess culpability after a catastrophic crash that totaled her automobile whereas driving beneath the affect. However I actually miss Robyn’s calm demeanor on the present, particularly her potential to assist tone down Gizelle when she is being unreasonably shady.

Robyn Was the Housewives Whisperer of Potomac

Within the tumultuous friendships inside the group, Robyn was usually the voice of purpose. With Karen’s looming authorized battle over her DUI earlier this 12 months, Ashley and Gizelle struggling to get their clothes and life-style model off the bottom, Wendy quitting her educating place, and feuds brewing within the background, there’s plenty of rigidity on RHOP. I really feel that what has been missing this season is somebody that’s prepared to quiz her forged mates calmly about their lives, with out digging too deep into their misdirection once they do not wish to share. Robyn was once the one to get Gizelle to see the place she had taken a misstep, and bridge the hole when the conflicts reached a boiling level. I miss Robyn’s potential to maintain calm and see purpose, even when she lied about her life with Juan.
