We Had Gabby From Winter House On The Latest Episode And She Spilled The Winter House Hot Chocolate!

Hey ya'll, On this week's episode we were lucky enough to have Gabrielle Kniery from Winter House but if you didn't know she was also on America's Next Top Model.

Here are some highlights:

•She spoke about how she is from St. Louis, Missouri and how a random coincidence got her to tryout for America's Next Top Model. She was persuaded by one of her good friends who was also auditioning to be on. Gabby auditioned and thought that she didn't make the second cut due to the fact that they didn't call her number. She was ready to leave and put this all behind her until the PA stopped her from going down the elevator. He said "Is number 69 here? You're actually the only girl that we wanted," And it took off from there!

•She also comments about the criticism that Tyra Bank received for her tactics on the show and expresses how grateful she is to have had the opportunity. Gabby says she will never bite the hand that has fed her and would never turn on a Black woman who gave so many women a great opportunity to be on the show.

•She also talked about her time at Winter House, Yes she did like Luke... however the argument was more about her friendship with Julia and how Julia had constantly tried things like that before, she was over it. She also felt isolated during that time because she didn't know anyone but Julia and partially Andrea whom she had met through Julia.

•Which brought her to talk about what they didn't show.. which is why we didn't get to know her that well.

•She said that her and the rest of the Winter House crew went Dog Sledding and that was a fun event that she wished they would have shown. Gabby also stated that she did confessionals speaking about the same thing that Ciara and Mya spoke about but Bravo did not include that footage.

•Gabby also spilled the tea on that moment from the trailer where it was insinuated that Kyle was flirting with her. She said it was no big deal and that Kyle was just saying she had the best ass in the house. Her and Kyle actually built a genuine friendship and it was nothing more than that.

•Speaking of Kyle, Gabby says that he was one of the only ones who truly tried to get to know her. As far as who she is still in contact with, she said that Paige was there when she had an injury because she lived close to her. She does text a few of them to check in from time to time and thinks that they are genuinely good people.

•She said that she was not asked back but she would love to be invited to Summer House so people can actually get to know her because she is not this introverted person that was portrayed on the show. She would like viewers to see her real personality.

•She said that although her conversation may not have made it on Winter House she was so proud and felt so seen when Ciara and Mya had their conversation. She loved the way the house reacted to it and Gabby is glad that Bravo decided to spotlight that.

•Although she doesn't have a lot of time to watch TV because she has been working on so many amazing projects such as the Dark & Lovely 50th Anniversary photoshoot, she enjoys dabbling in Summer House and some of the shows that come on NBC/ FOX. She loves. Dramas.

•Gabby also spilled the tea about her upcoming podcast called "The Gift Of Gab." The podcast will be a platform for her to tell inspirational stories that uplift and motivate listeners, she hopes that listeners can gain something from it.

BWB Chats With Shawndreca and Dom’Unique From Kandi & The Gang!

We are hoping that you all have seen Bravo TV’s new show Kandi & The Gang, or as we would like to call it “A spin-off done right.” The first episode premiered on Sunday March, 6th, 2022 and we have been promoting this show since Bravo first released the trailer. We were lucky enough to see the first episode a week early and we also got a chance to chat with two of the cast members (Shawndreca and Dom’Unique), who happen to be our favorites!

•Shawndreca spills what really went on between her and Philip before their heated argument on the show. She says that she felt disrespected and hopes that viewers get more of an insight on why she was so upset. Shawndreca also wishes that things could’ve been different because she would like to a have healthy work environment with everyone.

•After that Dom’Unique goes on to explain how she got a spot working at OLG. She says that she put together a Grade: A resume and was blessed enough to get a position working at the restaurant. She also goes into detail about her dance career, Can you say Black Excellence?! Dom’Unique has danced for artists like (City Girls, Megan Thee Stallion, and Trina) she also got a chance to perform at the BET Hip-Hop Awards with Megan Thee Stallion.

•Towards the end of the pod we ask these two ladies for OLG menu recommendations.. Y’all know we like to eat! Shawndreka recommended the Cornbread, OLG Signature Wings, Cajun Fries, and the French Toast & Chicken.. Dom’Unique recommended the Fish Dinner, Lamb Chops, washed down with one of their signature drinks called “The Housewife.” As soon as we head over to the restaurant we will release an official review in our community.

This was a great interview and it was a pleasure having these beautiful ladies.

ASHLEY DARBY HAS FILED FOR SEPARATION FROM MICHAEL DARBY

UPDATE SHE RELEASED A STATEMENT TO BRAVO:

Almost eight years ago, when Michael and I said ‘I do,’ we anticipated sharing every single day together from that moment forward. Unfortunately, that is not our current reality. We have decided to separate. We are aware that there will be many speculative views as to why we have made this decision. People will be quick to assume that the causes were too much intrusion by reality TV into the most personal parts of our lives, age gap issues, cultural problems, or child-rearing differences. Pieces of all these may have affected our pure love for each other, but no one reason is the root cause of our mutual decision to go our separate ways," she said. "We are now both at very different stages in our lives and have different goals for our futures. We both want the other to achieve true happiness and fulfillment and feel that we cannot do this together."

Her statement continued, "While our romantic bond is broken, we will always love and respect each other. We also know that true happiness can only be achieved by continuing to work together and putting our hearts and souls into raising our two beautiful boys, Dean and Dylan. They will always feel loved and supported, for they were truly created out of love. As this is a personal matter for us, we appreciate everyone who has been a part of our journey and ask for your continued support by respecting us as we go through this emotional situation.”
