What Is the Plot of Real Housewives of Potomac Season 8?
While the previous season focused on Robyn’s rekindled romantic relationship with Juan, his cheating allegations, and the lack of chemistry between them, this season will focus more on Mia Thornton. Thornton has never shied away from the fact that she was a former stripper who got with Gordon while he was still married to his ex-wife. But as the saying goes, ‘how you get them is how you lose them.’ Unfortunately for Mia, Gordon isn’t the one who was taken; rather, it was all his wealth. Gordon’s family recently took back ownership of his million-dollar business, leaving the couple almost broke and downsizing their lavish lifestyle. Mia seemed to take it in stride, but it strained their relationship because they are now heading for divorce.
According to Gordon on Instagram, he says that Mia was only with him for the money, and now that it’s run dry, she wants nothing to do with him. After 11 years of marriage, the two are separated but still trying their best to co-parent for the sake of their two children. This upcoming season of RHOP is likely to feature their divorce drama. Mia spoke to People, saying, “like all married couples, ours has its ups and downs…my family is my number one priority…we ask that you respect our privacy and give us the time and space to figure things out”. But privacy will be difficult because she is the star of a reality TV show about her personal life.
Considering the fallout between Mia and her best friend, who was like a sister to her, it seems things have not been going so well for the self-proclaimed business mogul. Aside from Mia and Gordon, this season will also focus on how Robyn and Juan are dealing with their new marriage, with some scandals still arising even after they tied the knot. As previous seasons have done, other cast members’ personal lives will be a key aspect of the series. Ashley Darby is now a single mother after divorcing Michael Darby. But she is now contemplating whether it was wise to leave Micheal and his money due to the difficult job of raising two sons alone.
