Monique Samuels is setting the record straight.
After part three of The Real Housewives of Potomac season 10 reunion aired, Monique took to Instagram to address claims she previously made about castmate Stacey Rusch.
During the reunion, Monqiue suggested Stacey may have told her ex-husband, Chris Samuels, that their children were filming for the show.

Now, she says she no longer believes Stacey was involved.
“A lot of time has passed since the reunion was filmed, and after gaining more info since then, I don’t believe Stacey had anything to do with any of that,” Monqiue wrote via her Instagram Story. “I’ll probably go live on Instagram at some point this week and give y’all the entire story.”
She added that she had not yet watched the reunion episodes herself but wanted to publicly clear Stacey’s name. “At least I wanted to clear her name on all of it,” she shared.

During the reunion, Stacey denied the allegation and told Chris, “Why would I try to hurt you with something as serious as telling your ex-husband that the kids are filming when they’re not supposed to be?”
The situation stemmed from information Chris said she received from an unnamed source.
