It was time for another installment of The Single Life Tell All, which unfortunately did not hold up to the first.
This week began with a guest appearance by none other than Mother Chantel herself, the original Karen. She came on board to defend her daughter’s pantiless parade around Greece, while wearing a skin tight gold jumpsuit that was being held together by hope and prayer. She defended Chantel’s skimpy vacation wear by maintaining that she is allowed to be both intelligent and sexy; A double threat. Miss Debbie looked on with disgust as she continued to ring her imaginary “shame bell” in Chantel’s direction, feeling that Chantel would find a better man if she were draped in, say, a sequined caftan.
Shaun replayed the Grecian getaway clips, showcasing the make out scenes with the infamous Giannis. Chantel was happy to report that the two have still been communicating long distance, though she considers herself single. Miss Debbie one again swooped in with her words of wisdom, feeling that Chantel was not ready to move forward with anyone as she didn’t think she was over her divorce. Of course this solicited a shimmery-lidded eye roll from the OG 90 Day beauty, who cringed as Shaun played back the scenes of her acting like she was on the Grecian Jersey Shore.
Chantel did seem to acknowledge that she was still having a lot of leftover feelings from her relationship with Pedro, but felt there was no harm in working through them while seeing someone new. She strutted offstage with Karen, in her gold sparkly glory, as Giannis came on the screen. He told the rest of the crew that he also agreed that Chantel was still haunted by the ghost of Pedro past, needing more time to heal. Veronica felt this meant that Giannis was slyly breaking things off with Chantel with his comments, though he maintained he would still like to see her, despite his lack of effort. The rest of the cast grilled Giannis on his ambition to see Chantel, pointing out that he never even bothered to see if he would need a Visa, and didn’t seem serious. Karen was more curious to know more important matters, like if he had any annoying little sisters that wore braces, or if his mother liked to eat chicken feet (Luckily for Giannis, his mom only cooks snails). Clearly going forward, Mother Chantel will need to be in attendance for all of her daughter’s future dates (And I will happily tune in for that).
The attention then moved over to Natalie, who sat with her fluffy hair watching back her season with ‘Jush”. She admitted she wasn’t loving LA as much as she’d thought she would, especially because as it turns out, it’s much harder to make it as an actress than one would think.
Jush came on stage, kissing Natalie on the cheek, as he took his spot in the hot seat. He revealed that the two have maintained a post-breakup friendship that even includes sleepover parties, some as recent as the previous night. To shed some further light on this situation (or not), Shaun brought out Caesar, and Coltee’s Mother Debbie (Pedicures and cocktails, anyone?!)
Jush explained that after their breakup, Natalie contacted him for help after getting into a car accident with the tiny red roller skate of a car he bought her. It seems the two have been in “close personal contact” ever since, but not in the form of an established relationship. Brother John felt the need to help break things down into simpler terms; He’s never going to marry her. He felt that after three years of non commitment, never taking her into his apartment, and never introducing her to his daughter, this was never going to happen. Natalie asked Jush directly why he wouldn’t commit. At first Josh tried to avoid the topic, as he didn’t want to embarrass her, but after being pressed, he gave several examples of Natalie’s insane personality and elaborate mood swings (Hope no one called her a “Cooker”!). His friends and business partners briefly featured on an episode came out to defend Josh, claiming that his kind and giving nature caused him to continuously help Natalie, with a bonus for sleeping together. Mother Debbie went after Jush, accusing him of using Natalie, and taking advantage of her while she was vulnerable, while Caesar just was along for the ride, because he likes to be near Ukrainian women at all times (I wonder if he and Jasmine share the same toe-licking affinity?!)
Jush insisted that he didn’t encourage Natalie to move to LA for him and their non-relationship, as she just sat in her seat with her famous wide eyed stare.
Not much else was uncovered on Part Two, though I do hold out hope for Part Three, as we haven’t gotten to any “surprise proposals” just yet.
