EXCLUSIVE: Potomac Bombshell! Former RHOP Star Monique Samuels Allegedly LOST Custody Of Her Kids … And Is Now Messing With A Married Man?!
Real Housewives of Potomac fans are picking their jaws up off the floor after explosive new allegations just blew the lid wide open on Monique Samuels’ messy divorce from former NFL star Chris Samuels!
Media Take Out learned that following Monique’s return to RHOP as a “friend of” the show, a vicious war of words erupted between Monique and Chris’s longtime female friend, Cherita “Cookie” Whiting. After Monique went on camera and suggested to the Potomac ladies that Chris may have cheated on her with Cookie, Cookie hopped straight on the airwaves to drop nuclear tea—claiming that Monique actually lost custody of her children over the summer and is currently sneaking around with a married man!
Monique Points The Finger At Cookie On RHOP — And Cookie Fires Back!
The drama kicked off during a recent Real Housewives of Potomac episode after Monique rejoined the cast and sat down with the ladies to unpack the demise of her 11-year marriage to Chris. During the conversation, Monique floated the theory that Chris may have been unfaithful with his longtime pal Cookie—who originally introduced the pair years ago.
Well, Cookie heard every word—and she wasted zero time putting Monique’s entire personal life on front street!
Appearing on Lunch Break Live, Cookie flatly denied ever hooking up with Chris, insisting he is “like a little brother” to her and accusing Monique of using her name for clout. “We was like, ‘Is she trying to use my name for clickbait?’ We don’t even discuss her or talk about her,” Cookie fired back.
Claims Of Lost Custody & Moving Two Minutes From A Married Man!
Cookie didn’t stop at clearing her own name—she turned the tables completely by alleging that Monique lost custody of her three children (Chris Jr., 13, Milani, 11, and Chase, 7) this past summer!
According to DMV insiders and online chatter backing up Cookie’s claims, Chris reportedly stepped in and secured primary custody after concerns arose over the children’s homeschooling and academic progress—leaving Monique allegedly reduced to scheduled visitation.
And if that wasn’t messy enough, Cookie accused Monique of hypocrisy for throwing cheating accusations around when she is allegedly tangled up with somebody else’s husband!
“Let her talk about messing with another Black woman’s husband,” Cookie blasted on the air. “Let her talk about that. Let her talk about why she moved two minutes from that man’s house where he lives with his wife and kids.”
