    Kandi Burruss

    Apologizing to Porsha

    Kandi wishes she hadn't made any comments about Porsha's marriage.

    Mar 11

    Sometimes I look back at an episode and disagree with my own self about things I may have said. This episode is one of them. I felt bad as I looked back at how we were questioning Porsha about her marriage. So let me say, Porsha, I apologize. My mom always says you’re not supposed to speak about other people’s marriage unless they ask you to. Porsha did not ask me for advice, nor should she. I am not married YET, therefore I can’t say what Porsha should or should not do. I respect the fact she stood her ground.

    You are a class act and as far as I know the only housewife who ever gave an unprovoked heartfelt,  public apology. You just went up a level in my book. All your money and you are the most down to earth of them all. Please don't change.

    I'm glad you realized that and had the courage to admit you were wrong and say you are sorry.  I did feel like all of you all had ganged up on Porscha and decided to tell her what you all thought, but at he end of the day that is her husband, her life, and her business and to be a friend means you be a friend to HER, nt her marriage,and if she didn't invite you to that part of her life, then I agree with you, you shouldn't invite yourself as her mother, counselor, or Pastor by giving your opinion on her life.  If she was in danger it would be a different thing.  She may be young, but a lot of times she showed more integrity and maturity than some of you nd you're right, you've never been married so how can you tell her how to walk in her own shoes?  Seeoms like you go it though, like Porsha said, maturity doesn't always come with age.  Maybe you can help the other ladies understand that too.  Best Wishes to your marriage.

    My Fav Housewife.. Keep it real Kandi.   Hope you always stay true to yourself and never allow any of these women to change who you are. Especially NeNe who likes to sit back and play the innocent role.  Just because you scream louder then the person you disagree with doesn't make you right. What  ever you do Kandi always stand up for whats right and dont allow this show to change that. Big ups to you for the apology even tho i dont think you were trying to be disrespectful or hurtful but as always big mouth I can say what I want, how I want, and to whom I want NeNe i feel surely was out of line.

    Big ups to you Kandi. You are in my opinion the most level headed person on the show.  I pray that you continue to be who you are and not allow anyone to push you to be something else.  I also would like to say that I tip my hat to you for suing that nonsinging Kim. I understand you were going to let it go and it wasn't about the money for you.  but that heffa was on a high horse because of that song and was in such deep denial about her singing ability.  She acted like you should have been grateful to work with her and you weren't suppose to get paid for your work.

    Kandi that was so nice of you to apologize to Porsha, but as I watched the episode there was nothing that was said that was wrong. I think that you all felt we came as group and we're going to party as one to. Kordell was very controlling in some instances. But your my favorite House Wife anyway.

    Kandi your the realist one on the show...don't get me wrong I like all the ladies & pray for Kenya to receive help for her behaviorial problems.

    Kandi,

    Your integrity is evident by publicly apologizing to Porsha for your comments in the limo in Las Vegas.  My perception was that all of you meant well and only wanted the best for Porsha.  It wasn't the point of going to the Crazy Horse, it was the point of being able to control her own destiny with input and support from her husband.  If I'd have been there, I'm sure I'd have joined right in with you.  However, since Porsha seemed surprised that the Crazy Horse was a strip club (?!?!) and felt she had been misled, the situation was not conducive to having a discussion, especially when she stood alone in her beliefs against everyone else.  She felt that she and Kordell, and thus her marriage, were being attacked, and she was correct to a degree.  So again, your apology shows not only that you realize you were wrong, but that you need to make amends in a public forum.

    I was proud of Porsha for standing up for herself against such formidable odds.  In light of the recent announcement that Kordell subsequently filed for divorce, my heart breaks for Porsha because of her fierce loyalty to him and belief in the strength of their marriage.  Such a betrayal.  She'll come out better and stronger, though it's a painful journey.

    I'm proud of you Kandi for staying humble, and it's one of the reasons I like you so much on the show!

    Thank you for speaking up and standing up for what is right concerning Kenya being mean spirited toward Porsha.  As a black woman I needed to see us united against inappropriate behavior among us and this will help that person realize you are welcome as long as you do what is right and when you do not there are consequences.  Even the bible teaches you should first go talk with her, then bring counsel to her and if she continues then alienate her.

    Kandi ..sistagurl.. i'm glad you were big enough to apologize to Porsha. her marriage is her business. if you invited that dude to your housewanmig knowing Kenya would be that that was not right. i think you could at least given her a heads up!! just saying

    the apology...  classy moment, kandi.  love you more!

    shysharon 1769 pts

    That apology was big of you. You're a smart girl, and nice! Love your house! I would have asked that Walter to leave. If you boyfriend invited him, he should have discussed it with you prior....another incident that makes no sense, which leads me to believe it was set up that way and I'm no longer interested in any fake situations.

    cnicole 48 pts

    @shysharon Why do u feel she should have asked Walter to leave? Should her husband not be able to interact with Walter because Kenya doesn't like him??? These are all adults, Kenya and Kandi have been friends for 5 minutes, if u can even call it a friendship. Kandi owes Kenya NOTHING. It's not like Walter is coming to these events bothering Kenya, he's not even paying her any attention...SMH

    doxyroxy 679 pts

     cnicole  shysharon   Don't think either Kandi or Todd invited Walter, although they didn't mind he was there.  Seems he called Apollo and told him he was coming, and then Apollo told  Phaedra.  But it was never made clear who invited him in the first place.

    Walter doesn't make drama, cry, storm out, twirl, scream.  He just shows up and talks to the men.  Why should they kick him out because Kenya can't behave like an adult?

    shysharon 1769 pts

     doxyroxy  cnicole

     You and cnicole both asked me that and maybe I'm wrong, but that 's how I felt at the time....maybe because neither of them invited Walter and he's an ex of an invited guest...if he were friends with Todd, he would have been invited. If this weren't a filmed event, maybe I wouldn't have cared, but knowing it's set up for TV, he really had no business there. The whole thing's so stupid, and I'm no fan of Kenya's but what he said about her was as uncalled for as what she said about him! I wouldn't keep him at my housewarming to cause problems when the party for one of my  proudest moments!

    I'm glad you apologized! What Porsha should have done was stayed on her religious convictions; there is nothing wrong with feeling sad that women have to dance naked for money; I feel the same way. God still blesses Holiness!

    Good for you for apologizing.  It takes a person who is secure in herself to recognize when she is wrong.  You are right in that, until you are either in the marriage itself or take the time to become trusted friends with these people, it is not fair to judge.  One thing I appreciate about you, as opposed to the obnoxious Nene who is always right (ha), is that you can admit when you are wrong or can take a step back to see things from others' points of view.

    Nastybaby 1252 pts

    Kandi should be apologizing because not long ago, her relationship with AJ was questioned and Marlo also talked about her being a "Sugar Momma". Yah, Kandi, put a lid on it when it comes to other people's relationships.

    you seem to love all the drama these days.  what happened to your song that you fly above the drama?  no more.  you appear to be a good friend, a good mother, and so on.  what i don't get is how you say in your intro that you are 'small'.  small?  where?  you mean short?  yes, you are short but far from small.  no offense, just saying you need to keep it real.

    I love your new home.  God bless the child that has his own. You deserve it.  I was wondering in the master bedroom, I did not see closets, only the nice wooden portables.  House is too high end not to have uber deluxe walk in closets for you and hubby to be. That is a project for your fiance to take that master bedroom to the stratosphere.  If I missed the walk in closet, props to you and your beautiful family.  I cannot wait for your wedding.

    Khandi,

    I really admire you. You are a smart, independent, successful businesswoman. I think you epitomize what The Real Housewives franchise should be all about, even though you're not a housewife. You're also a role model for other female entertainers, no drugs, no scandel etc...  

    You have the right to invite anyone to your house that you want to.   Kenya keeps saying that she could care less about Walter let her prove it. The reason he keeps showing up at events is because Bravo wants him to. They want another "Paul-Brandi" showdown moment. I'm glad they didn't get last night. Keep doing what you're doing and laughing all the way to the bank.

    i WAS SOOOO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU KANDI.....just when i was getting ready to give you a pass ...you staged that whole mess with Miss Phaketra  at your housewarming ....you are falling to her level of stupidiy and carrying out that trap at your housewarming was even more low class than the time you embaressed your mom with the male stripper party.......How low can you go.....I lke your mom ...its such a shame you learned nothing from her. You need to surround yourself with better friends than phaketra....my mother always said .....show me your company and I will show you who you be.....she was not wrong.

    I've been a fan of yours since back in the day! I cant believe you're letting those FEMALES change you.. I understand the fact that you are loyal to your friends (Phedra) but never let ANYONE change whats good in you MRS. I FLY ABOVE ALL THE HATERS ITS BENEATH ME, I STAY PRAYED UP THAT GETS ME BY THATS HOW I MADE IT THROUGH MY DARKEST NIGHTS... I'm just saying...

    Kandi,

    Your house is so over the top tacky! You get bigger, braggier and and brasher every show! I guess in your world that's a good thing.

     

    Why are you acting like Walter was invited. You were as surprised as Kenya. I imagine you embarass your mother in way more troubling ways than questioning Porsha's marriage.

    Kandi g-u-r-l!!! i am a HUGE HGTV freak and lemme just say:

    YOU. DID. THE. DAMN. THING. WITH. YOUR. HOUSE!!! O-KAY!!!

    i was literally applauding you. my man thought i was nuts. you are super blessed, hard working mom for Riley and i just love how you gave her an absolute 'Barbie' dream living space!

    you have wonderful taste and made me wish that 'I' was at the dang party. lol

    bravo!!! its amazing how 1st people are trying to talk cray-cray about your house (which you bought in Kash! lol) and now look at how things turned out.

    splendid.

    Kandi your house is fabulous and I love your daughters room. I wish you and your family all the best. Now as for Kenya/Walter, you ladies need to leave Walter alone. The guys (your significant other) will have to understand because the show is about you ladies and Walter needs to step off. I know Kenya caused this but now he must take his lumps and go. Walter allowed Kenya to insert him in a way not pleasing to her or the public. They both are paying for the lies they told and neither can handle it. If I were you guys, I would stay out of it and let them work it out amongst themselves. They are both looking stupid and Kenya is to blame.

    I like the color scheme in Kandi's bedroom.  It's dark, soothing and not distracting.  I also like the property and the structures themselves.  Fantastic idea to have two houses on one property.

    Not sure I understand your comment.  Kandi IS mistress of her domain since she bought the house.  I'm not too fond of her (or any of the other HWs for that matter), but I simply commented on a color scheme and a nice property.

    Kandi your home is beautiful!!! As for the other drama, I respect  anyone who can admit blame and apologize! On the Kenya/Walter situation, I can see both sides. Walter being at every event, would be hard on Kenya. The "guys" on the show have every right to be friends with Walter, but it is a hurtful reminder everytime Kenya has to see him. Walter treated her horrible and continues to slander her every chance he gets.  A real man does not behave that way.Walter came to your party for one reason, to stir the pot!  He was walking around the room being RUDE to his date! lol....she looked bored as heck!  Peter LOVES drama and wants to be in the middle of it, he is the one who is constantly asking Walter questions about Kenya, why does he care??!?!?  Cynthia needs to tell her husband to sit down! I do agree it is your home and should be able to invite who you want, and everyone should be mature enough to try and get along.

    Beckymgrey 3531 pts

     dsalts On one hand I agree with you and then I don't. Kenya is the cast member on this show. So to be uncomfortable is unfair to her, but she let the snake into the garden of Eden. It was Kenya who needed a connection and storyline and Walter gave it to her. "When you lye down with dogs, you wake up with flees" (that applies to Kroy also) ...back to Kandi

     

    I'm happy for you and your family. Your home is grande. You're taste is not my taste but that's what makes the world go round. Best of love to you and your family.

    This was very humble and self aware of Ms. Burruss and the quote from her mom IMHO is on point.  I did not watch the full episode, but saw a taste of what the women were saying.  I am 42yo happily married going on 19yrs. There have been occasions where I know from the outside looking in it seems as if my husband runs things, but I know WE run this.  That being said "a two headed horse is going no where fast".  Those who have strong marriages will understand others will hopefully catch it later.

    Hello Kandi, your house is Fabulous!!! Girl, you did that!!! If that is balling on a budget, I sure hate to see you when you are big balling, shot calling!!! We all definitely know why Kim and tacky kacky.. aka "Sweetie" was hating when they saw you magnificent estate. Keep on doing you. You were more than gracious with Kenya regarding inviting Walter to your open house event. You didn't have to explain anything to her. Kenya and Walter are wasting way too much energy trying to prove (her) and disapprove (him) the validity of their relationship. She showed up with a broke has been ex - NFL athlete  and then he shows up with a busted drag queen....  I don't know what all that is about... it's too much... they need to get a life.. seriously.

     MsValley You know you are right. I think Walter would do well to marry Kenya. He is stupid! At his age he should be trying to love on an brick house working woman like Kenya. Obviously from his date he can't do better.
