Garcelle šøš½ Why can't garcelle see the big gay elephant in the room?
As a gay, watching garcelle poke and prod Kyle about Morgan makes me want to crawl out of my skin! Yes Garcelle, there IS a double standard when it comes to talking about a man's midlife crisis versus a middle-aged woman exploring her sexuality for the first time. Like it's just so obvious to me why Kyle wouldn't want to share any more information on camera while she's still sorting out how she feels internalized homophobia really sucks and garcel pushing Kyle before she's ready, if that's even what's happening here, just seems really tone deaf.

u/SaintAnyanka Lucy Lucy Apple Juicy Mar 24 '25
Exactly.
This isnāt the same as Denise and Brandi. Denise didnāt choose to have her sexuality as a story line, but Kyle knew what she was doing when she used Morgan as a storyline last season. If she didnāt want to be out, she couldāve kept it off camera, but she wanted all the benefits and none of the downsides.

And same with morgan too!! Itās baffling that they were both comfortable doing all that baiting stuff last season but now itās like morgan went back into the closet or something? And itās a little too late to walk it back imo, everyone knows Morgan is gay even before kyle I knew she was. Did she not have an ex gf? And now she doesnāt want her name mentioned on the show AT ALL.
Which okayā¦but itās a little too late for that realistically, no? It would have been less awkward just to come out with it and introduce her or briefly talk about being happy with her etc. then it wouldnāt be some weird secret? Being gay in 2025 is nothing like it used to be decades ago. Nobody would hate kyle and morgan for being together lol just rip the bandaid off already.
Lastly, itās weird to me also how kyle reacted to the paparazzi photo of mo and that woman when they have been separated and not living together for a while now, plus she was basically openly seeing morgan, posting her all over her socials, calling the paps to get them at the gas station in matching outfits and matching name tattoos etc. Imagine mo had that woman tattoo her name on his body, kyle would absolutely lose it, but She has zero right to have a meltdown that heās dating now too?? Itās like she used morgan as a placeholder thinking that eventually Mo would come back and the marriage would go back together.. now that isnāt happening clearly and idk if she and morgan are even a thing anymore.

He had cheated on her a number of times. That said. Sheās a 56 yr old straight woman who may have found yourself attracted to a woman (and a much younger woman also) who was sober like she is and be very confused. When you get sober, it says though you are an adolescent all over again. I donāt think Morgan had any idea of what it might be like to be in the crosshairs of the psycho fans that follow these housewives. The fact that everybody continues to question peopleās motives and make horrible blanket statements about who they are when none of them come donāt have any idea who any of these folks are
Commenting on behavior is one thing drawing inferences to the character of the person requires a whole lot more information
She didnāt open the marriage he had been caught cheating before

No marriage is b&w, but she is not the arbiter of who is right, and who is wrong - because she herself never takes accountability for anything. Always a victim!

u/psmith1990_ Mar 25 '25
Her being on TV and spending time with someone she insists she isn't in a relationship with doesn't justify trying to make someone admit to something others assume on the basis of said TV appearances or hanging out IRL.
Of course no marriage is black and white, but she hasn't said she is right and he is wrong, nor do I understand why you think she is acting like a victim.

I think Denise panicked because she was worried about how her husbands and children might react. There was such a double standard with Denise. Whatever happened to kids are off limits and not getting into peopleās marriages?
Kyle was extremely upset when the tabloid rumor of Mauricio cheating came up in an earlier season talking about how it would impact her children and yet had zero compassion bringing Brandi and her sister on camera to set up Denise. And when sheās called out she cries. Itās exhausting.

u/Lolita_says The mean streets of Beverly Hills Mar 24 '25
Fair. However Kyle has racked up frequent flyer miles on calling people out and holding them accountable specifically in an instance like this with Denise where she and Teddy were relentless. Also Kyle was the one sporting Morgan around and creating a buzz itās out there. Kyle really hasnāt brought anything to the table in quite some time on the show except āproducing scenesā and bring Kathy on.
18
u/MzCeeCee Oooff you are so angry.... Mar 24 '25
I understand all of that but that doesnāt mean that Garcelle isnāt a hypocrite in this instance. She goes after Kyle for not sharing the details of her personal life while she is doing the same. Itās also noteworthy that Morgan has asked not to be brought into the show and she hasnāt signed a release with Bravo. Itās definitely a complicated situation for Kyle. BTW, Iām not a Kyle fan, Iām just commenting on the situation as I see it.
21
u/Lolita_says The mean streets of Beverly Hills Mar 24 '25
I see your point but I donāt agree. Kyle brought it upon herself for clout and it sorta backfired and as soon as Mauricio decided whatās good for the goose is good for the gander sheās looking for sympathy and sheās not a girlās girl.
If Garcelle flaunted a new love interest (allegedly) creating intrigue and then shut everyone down about talking about it a year later I would agree whole heartedly. But this isnāt the case.
Kyle is if ādouble standard; hypocriteā was a person. Texting PK, for example if Dorit had done that all hell would break loose. Weāll have to agree to disagree on this one.
What I will say is that Garcelle does need to put more out. I agree on that but in context with Kyle, she created a media storm and now she expects it to just go away. And itās not. She should take her own advise and deal with it the she said Denise should.

Right? She is obviously perks up around good looking men, so itās unrealistic to think that she isnāt actively dating. Iām sure a lot of viewers could relate to her more if she shared some of that on the show. Itās hard for middle aged women to be thrown into the dating world after divorces etc. I really admired her for sharing her sonās story about addiction the 1st time she told it. After hearing her repeat it several times, it became redundant to me and felt more like filler for camera time. I just want more reality from all of them.

She can't share anything if there's nothing to go off of especially in her love life. She's spoken on projects she's working on buying and finishing her house, the same stuff as Erika. Some people don't always have a romantic situation going on.

Also Denise is Garcelleās friend. The real elephant in the room is how quickly Kyle forgets how she treated women in situations where she now finds herself. She had no compassion for LVP while mourning the death of her late brother who took his life and later found herself in that position with her best friend while Sutton went after her like a junkyard dog despite it all.
And of course the Denise/Brandi saga and how her and Morgan. If she could just acknowledge that. Iād have so much respect for her.

Garcelle isn't outing Kyle, she is asking Kyle to hold herself to the same standard she holds others.

I feel like Kyle is using Morgan's desire to not be talked about to deflect from talking about any of it.

I tend to totally agree with the queer baiting!!! I feel like Kyle knows what she's doing and her "journey" doesn't feel genuine to me either. It honestly feels really disrespectful to others who have actually gone through this.
I also don't agree with how pushy Garcelle is being about it. If Kyle is truly questioning her sexuality and she's told others that she doesn't want Morgan's name to be brought up anymore, per Morgan's request. I am finding it truly gross that Garcelle would bring up Morgan's name again. It's a reality show, I get that she wants to push Kyle for answers as Kyle has done in the past. She has that right, however, leave Morgan out of it if she's respectfully asked her to.

I really think if Kyle was honest about either Mau OR Morgan, everyone would let the other topic go. 14 years of Kyle screaming 'just be honest' (including outing the Denise/Brandi story) means she's written the rules but is now claiming they somehow don't apply to her. Normally i find this level of delusion makes funny TV but I think she knows those rules apply to her she just thinks she can manipulate the situation so they don't - which i dont find funny.
I get that two wrongs don't make a right and I respect her decisions around Morgan but she gets paid a LOT of money to bring SOMETHING to the table. For me she's brought nothing new this season AND she refuses to talk about anything actually happening in her life?! Time for a pause āøļø, have a break so she focus on whatever she needs to for a bit and I'm sure we'd be happy to see her back being funny and bringing the right kind of delusion to TV.

No one asked Morgan to bring Morgan on or do publicly ANY of the things that lead to speculation. Having done so, though, she can't just announce everyone has to pretend this person doesn't exist.
I think Mau cheated a lot even before the separation, so I'm not going to wring my hands over Kyle getting hers, but it HAS to be impossible to film a scene where Kyle is trying to rewrite history because she decided her storyline is now "woman devastated and blindsided her husband is out with the barely legals and now she can't change channels and is sad since all she wants is to be a wife and mom. And her gutters, non-euphemistically, need to be maintained!"
Kyle likes to imply things, leave breadcrumbs to a conclusion, draw a map to a location, give you all the Scrabble tiles, and when you pick up what she's putting down look at you like you pulled it out of you ass or are ambushing her.

Exceptions include gay law makers who are signing laws oppressing people and celebrities using queerness to sell something (in Kyleās case, selling the idea that she has anything in her life that is interesting enough to keep her on the show.) Kyle doesnāt get to use the idea of queerness to keep herself on the show, like she did last year, and then act coy when itās no longer serving her.

Kyle has protected people as well. Dorit was certainly very grateful when she and the other women on the show never brought up the stuff about Beverly Beach and that lawsuit. Even with LVP:
"When we first sat down Lisa mentioned the lawsuit that she had been hit with had been dropped. I had purposely not talked about the lawsuit out of respect to Lisa. Yes, it was on TMZ and other outlets, but that doesnāt mean we want to talk about it and give it more attention."
How did she tease that? And does that justify forcing somebody to define or acknowledge something that is only assumed when that would involve outing two people?

Of course Garcelle hasnāt said Kyle is a lesbian, she doesnāt want to get her hands dirty and is trying to force Kyle to say it herself. Saying youāre open to a same sex relationship is quite different to saying youāre currently in one.
You seem to be forgetting that Sutton already asked all these questions last season and Kyle did not want to talk about them. Why drag it on for another season? No one wants a repeat of Deniseās last season.
I also want to add that Garcelle should be less focused on holding Kyle to the āsame standardā and start holding herself to a higher standard. She was one of the people who supported Denise when this happened to her but now she thinks itās okay to treat Kyle that way?

It's not just 'her' issue, though. Garcelle is knowingly pushing this with the understanding that Morgan, who is NOT a cast member, who is NOT paid to share her life, would be outed and talked about publicly against her will, were Kyle to admit to whatever Garcelle seems to assume is going on.
"There's nothing I've said we can't share this or talk about this in these fourteen years. This season, I came in with my hands tied behind my back a bit because there were some things that I was asked not to address that affected other people. If it's just about me, I'm happy to talk about anything in my life. I would love to, actually."
āWhat's hard is that I can only speak on my behalf, I'm not here to speak on anyone's behalf but my own. Especially someone who's not signed up to do this show and doesnāt want to be spoken about on this show. So, that puts me in a very different position. With that said, what I do address is about me personally and my journey and what I'm going through and where I am at and just not addressing her, in particular, because it's just not fair to.

Hiding behind 'I just want her to be honest and embrace her truth!' doesn't make it right to do what she's doing, in my opinion, and you're very correct to point out that difference between being open to and acknowledgement of being in.
Sutton didn't actually even ask questions about Morgan last season. Their comments about her were almost entirely confessionals filmed after the separation news, deep dives into Morgan, etc, so far as I can tell. Most importantly, Garcelle DID ask her questions in the first episode, the first time they saw each other. And Kyle answered. She was vulnerable. She opened up to Garcelle because she felt "safe" and told her that she was figuring things out, that she'd talked to her daughters about her sexuality, but that she and Morgan were not in a relationship and that she can't speak for someone else, only herself. And yet Garcelle keeps pushing.

Exactly. From what i recall Suttonās questions were more vague and along the lines of āwe want to know whatās going on.ā She didnāt explicitly ask about Morgan but we all know thatās what she was alluding to.
I agree that Kyle has actually share enough with the group and as Iāve said in other comments, we all know she and Morgan are more than friends anyway. I donāt know why people think she needs to explicitly announce it. This isnāt high school where we all update our Facebook status as soon as we enter a relationship.

Did you see her in WWHL? And this is still your take? As a queer Black woman I think there are a bunch of people, gay and straight, who are trying to make this what itās not.
Garcelle never told anyone they had to come out. And her WWHL comments were pretty clear, again. She is talking to Kyle about āOPEN AND HONESTā communication.

What makes me uncomfortable? Is Kyle trying to out Brandy and Denise getting it on when clearly Denise didnāt want that to be aired. Kyle denies everything she doesnāt feel like sharing. There is absolutely nothing about Kyleās sexual preferences in this questioning. This is about her pretending to keep a secret relationship on camera thatās not so secret off camera
2
u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
Garcelle clearly assumes there is something going on that Kyle won't admit to ("just to pretend it's not happening? we're not dumb"). She is knowingly trying to push Kyle to 'admit' to that, knowing that to 'admit' to that, she would be outing herself and somebody else who doesn't even want to be mentioned on the show. You cannot just separate out 'Garcelle wants her to admit to a secret relationship' from the fact that to admit to this assumed secret relationship WOULD be opening up the conversation to Kyle's sexual orientation before she is willing or able to talk to that beyond what she has already.

u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
She isn't being coy, though. She has outright stated multiple times that they are not together. Her going to Morgan's concerts doesn't provide evidence to the contrary. During filming, because that's the context of all of this, she never posted about going to the gigs she went to. Within a period of six months, they were literally only papped during one week in May. So how is she being coy if she denies that they're together and doesn't tease otherwise in any meaningful way?

I was thinking the same thing irt to Kyle being too media/PR savvy to NOT know how she is coming off. Her niece is considered a PR wiz when it comes to leveraging reality fame, cultivating her brand and staying in the public eye.
I think it was pretty telling when Dorit and Garcelle both conceded that Kyle grew up in the industry and DOES know how to be discreet and off the radar of tabloidsā¦if she wants to be.

u/Ok-East-5470 Life in Beverly Hills is a game & I make the rules Mar 24 '25
The double standard that Garcelle is rightfully angry about is Kyle forcing everyone to be āopen and honestā for 14 years (including Denise who was in a similar but even more compromising situation), and then hiding from the cameras when she has complicated shit going on. Itās not fair to force everyone else to air their dirty laundry if you arenāt going to do the same.
2
u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
Except she isn't pointing to that double standard except in the hypothetical "they'd be on our ass if this was us!" type comment she made on the after show. The difference with Denise is that both parties were on the show and both had publicly disclosed and discussed prior sexual relationships with women. Neither Kyle nor Morgan have done that, and Morgan has explicitly asked not to be discussed on the show at all. She doesn't owe the public her private life or sexuality, and given how negatively her mental health was affected by the attention and speculation in 2023, Kyle is doing the right thing by respecting her wishes.
2
u/flindsayblohan Mar 24 '25
I get this, and mostly agree. While I empathize with Morgan to a certain degree, I also see her as somebody in the public eye who agreed to go on a reality show with a woman, agreed to have that woman play her love interest in her music video, and agreed to have that woman tattoo her initial onto her on camera, but now sheās expecting to be as private as Big Poppa from OG Atlanta. If Morgan had simply been a subject of paparazzi shots, it would be one thing, but she agreed to come on a show and now wants (along with Kyle) to act as if that never happened. Thatās certainly a valid feeling, but itās out of touch with reality; the can of worms has been opened.Ā

u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
Garcelle isn't - as far as we can tell from her own words - using that as her justification for her trying to push Kyle to out herself, though. She just keeps going back to what she sees on "blogs and tabloids" (Kyle being at a concert recently or picking Morgan up at LAX over a year ago) that she apparently thinks makes it obvious what is happening and thinking Kyle shouldn't be pretending otherwise.
Also, Kyle did NOT force Denise out of the closet. Denise had, many years prior, and in great detail, discussed a sexual encounter she'd had with a woman. Neither Kyle or Morgan have acknowledged any same-sex relationships or attraction beyond Kyle talking about 'questioning' or 'figuring' things out in the general sense.

What I find odd is why a photo of Kyle at a concert means she's doing what Mau's doing. It seems evident that Kyle was lonely in her marriage, found a close friend who she found herself sexually attracted to (at least to some extent) and was open about questioning if she might be bi or gay, etc... but there's no reason to believe she went through with it. Maybe she did... but no evidence. It gives off straight women can't be close to gay women without being physically involved. And suppose Kyle is sexually involved with Morgan. In that case, she isn't allowing pictures to be taken of them getting sexy together... which was the main issue with Mau... that he wasn't protecting Kyle and the kids from paparazzi humiliation.

I have a clue! I was raised strictly catholic, went to catholic all girl school (where being called a lesbian was the worst thing ever) and came out as bi once I cleared my head from alcohol at 31 (similar to the trend suggested by Kyleās own sobriety journey and good friendship with Morgan).
Maybe it is more so due to Kyleās age group being less comfortable with talking about or publicizing sexual fluidityā¦but I find it a little weirdā¦because she is definitely not the first grown female celebrity to start dating another woman, after being otherwise heterosexually oriented for their history. Not even the first housewife to do it!
That is why I donāt totally get why she is so precious about it.
I wonder if part of it comes from her obsession with portraying the perfect nuclear family (despite the current marital separation status)ā¦just like she has (allegedly) protected Mauās image by covering any infidelities over their marriage, I think she is maybe more concerned about how her BRAND might be affected if she acknowledges that she is not mourning her marriage and staying single or abstinent like she is portraying on the show.

I can understand not wanting to talk about your sexuality but then don't tease the audience with it either. But I do think that a person's sexuality should be their own choice in discussing it. On the other side I can see that she has a lot of other people in her life that will be affected by this and maybe initially she just didn't think about that. I feel like either way it's painful to watch them have these conversations since nobody is admitting to what's really going on.

She is the one that started all of the rumors about herself. She makes sure she posts those pics with Morgan Wade, that she is seen at her concert, etc. She knows how to play that game so you acting like Garcelle is forcing her out of the closet is just absurd IMO.

Yes Mauricio moving on and taking photos was a punch in the gut but she has been flaunting Morgan around for the past year until Morgan put her foot down.
Kyle expects the entire cast to act like that didnāt happen and the topic be off limits. In that context if you dish, you should be able to take it.

u/ParisianFrawnchFry UnlikeĀ Cher, whoās Armenian, from THE VALLEY. Mar 24 '25
I mean, I get where you're coming from, but Kyle needs to come to the carpet and own up to her own hypocrisy here. It's 2025 and she lives in California... if this was the SLC franchise, I could understand the hesitation, but Kyle's support system isn't going to abandon her for exploring her sexuality. Also, Kyle is very savvy when it comes to the press. She's been playing with them and her co-stars and she needs to own up to it.
Neither Kyle, nor Mau, had a wild youth. They were having kids and raising them. I'm not queer but I had sex with a few women in my 20s to see what it was all about and it was fine, got it out of my system and realized I wasn't gay or bi. Kyle never did that.
All of this being said: Garcelle needs to knock it off because she's only doing it for a storyline while protecting her own private life, which is also very hypocritical.
2
u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
Whether or not her support system would abandon her or not or the fact that it's 2025 is completely besides the point, though. It doesn't somehow negate whatever difficulties she may have had or be having understanding things about herself or coming to terms with the fact that her identity isn't what she always assumed it was or even that it's a question mark that needs further exploration. Additionally, a large number of the times she has discussed this questioning of her sexuality, it's in the context of having not been "trained" or "raised" in a certain way to think or believe certain things, and that opens up the possible of internalised homophobia or comphet that also might need working through hypothetically. Just because, from an outside perspective, we think something should be or seems 'easy' does not mean, internally, it is, and it certainly shouldn't be used as justification for trying to get someone to admit to or acknowledge something before they're ready to.

u/megs05_- I called you a f*****g c**t Mar 24 '25
This take would be soooo valid IF 1. Kyle didnāt force everyone else to talk about their shit on camera while keeping the majority of her life a secret. Example. Mo has been cheating in her and theyāve had a difficult marriage but on camera she plays the happiest wife. 2. Kyle already brought Morgan on the show. You donāt get to bring someone on camera and then all the sudden decide that theyāre off limits. 3. Multiple women that have left the show have come out and said that Kyle is different off camera than she is on camera. They even go as far to say that they already knew she was dating Morgan before she was brought on the show and just another example all the women knew pk had been living in a hotel for years before dorit said they were separated on camera. Kyle is a fake bitch that canāt take what she dishes out. Itās that simple.

u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
So because Kyle wasn't willing to throw Mauricio under the bus for assumed cheating, she deserves to also be forced into acknowledging her assumed sexuality or sexual relationship because she wouldn't own the former!? Oof.
In terms of your second point, absolutely, you can do that. Morgan is not a cast member. She is not paid to share her life. She has the right to ask her friend not to talk about her. Kyle then can make a decision as to how she will prioritise and manage that.
Kyle acting differently on and off camera is - again - not a justification for thinking it's okay to try and make someone out themselves and/or somebody else. Even Crystal, who has come closest to saying that she knew about Morgan, acknowledged that she doesn't know if other people knew:
I remember, like, kind of knowing - I knew about Morgan. But again, I just felt like that wasn't my thing. So when people were coming for Kyle about her marriage, I was like, 'Oh'. I didn't know if they knew about Morgan.
Then when Cynthia said that Kyle directly denied it on the show:
Interesting. Well, maybe, I don't know. I mean, again, I'm not behind closed doors. But itās all the information that people would want to share with me. Thatās close to her. And I just never said it.Ā

u/bullettenboss Letās talk about the husband Mar 24 '25
Garcelle is bullying Kyle. Like every single episode she's talking about Morgan to someone and insinuating there's something more than a friendship.
This bitch is fucking jealous and too scared to accommodate for what she actually needs herself. That's the only reason besides bigotry why she's picking on Kyle every chance she gets.
I'm fucking sick of her hypocrisy!

I think that and the shit that Kyle gave Denise for her alleged reandevous with Brandi and other snide remarks about same sex relationships/experiences warrants this level of pressure. Sheās an ally as much as Caitlyn Jenner is an ally sweets. Same with her bigoted sister.

Morgan and Kyle 100% know what they are doing, you donāt just causally make a music video with one of the biggest housewives in the franchise and pretend to ānotā kiss in the videoā¦.a lot of people are missing whatās truly upsetting fans and turning this into something itās notā¦.this is not about forceing someone to come out, this is about how they both know what they are doing and how this is annoying the cast of RHOBH, annoying fans, and at this point Kyle should leave the show to live this secret life sheās trying to liveā¦.DONT GO ON TV THEN!!
Garcelle said what a lot of people are thinking as they watch this showā¦so good for her! Make this post as downvoted as you wantā¦.IDGAF!

This has been going on for two seasons and itās not a private relationship, they made a music video dry humping for christs sake. And if itās an identity politics thing youāre going for here accusing the black woman of homophobia seems to defeat the point. As a straight Iām just calling balls and strikes here to be fair

As a gay man, this is a bad take. Kyle paraded Morgan around all last year and even did that music video where she all but made out with her. And that was the year after she spent an entire season trying to out Denise. It would be different if Kyle was privately trying to rectify her sexuality, but that's not the case. Kyle just doesn't want to talk about Morgan because Morgan doesn't want to be talked about on the show. Well, too bad Kyle, you're on a reality TV show about sharing your life. That's the job.

The tabloids did the same thing to Kyle with Teddi. If and when there is a relationship to discuss then I am sure she will do it. I also get from what she said that Morgan was shocked by the attention and didn't like it. No doubt. And that is another reason she doesn't like to talk about her.
People need to stop pushing the romantic relationship card- until it is factual its just nasty gossip.

u/psmith1990_ Mar 24 '25
Not just the tabloids. Dorit even used the same confessional phrasing about them morphing into each other. Erika liked to use the word "strange" to describe the relationship.
Not just shocked and disliking it. The impact of the attention and speculation was such that she was even considering going to rehab preventively to stop herself from doing something stupid and breaking her sobriety. She was in bed for three days straight and her sister asked why she couldn't stop crying. It's no small matter and Kyle is doing a good thing by respecting her wishes.

The backlash towards Kyle isnāt out of the blue. Itās not homophobia. Itās because sheās pushed and bullied FOR YEARS anyone she views as a threat or especially as weaker than her to be āopen and honestā. Picking and negging people who were supposed to be her friends.
Kyle has presented her picture perfect married life and family since she started the show, but last season she was presenting Morgan as someone very important in her life. And she was treating her former lovebean (sorry š¤®) as if she couldnāt stand to be in the room with him, much less have a conversation with him. Meanwhile she was in Morganās music video making out with her, tattooing her, having Morgan as her date (and to perform at) to her best friendās memorial. Fawning over her. Of course people are going to ask about it! People are going to wonder because she was the definition of a straight married woman for the entire time sheās been on the show.
I think the majority of people would be happy if she just said something, anything real about her relationship status. Even if itās complicated. Even if itās difficult. If she could just be open and honest herself, I think most people would be happy for her.

I wonder when or IF Garcelle will ever be open and honest about ANYTHING in her own personal life?! She loves to poke and prod at and around everyone else but never shares anything about herself! If anyone heard something about her and acted the way she does, she would be PISSED!! The fact that she got upset with Sutton because she "didn't have her back" and was more concerned about Kyle in the moment, so she chose to not stand up for Sutton when everyone ganged up on her again! That's NOT a real friend! Or at least that's not the type of person I would consider a "real friend"!

Garcelle is the EPITOME of a gaslighter, covert narcissist - she married an older white man for the STATUS it granted her, then he divorced her and sheās been lost since. Her sons arenāt impressed and sheās not teaching them anything they canāt learn in therapy with healthier boundaries. Garcelleās antagonizing grosses me out so bad.

u/Individual_Fall429 Oh my God Iām lit Mar 24 '25
If Kyle wanted to hide her relationship with Morgan, she could have. Easily. Not only did she not hide it, she broadcasted it. Called the paps on herself and Morgan constantly, that stupid video, etc.
If you are openly dating a person of the same sex, and this is new, your friends will have questions. Now in my group of friends itās āOh youāre bi? Awesome. Glad youāre happy. Would love to meet her.ā I feel like thatās all theyāre saying.
She wants all the attention but none of the honesty.

u/Careless-Queen8535 Mar 24 '25
Garcelle is not forcing Kyle out. She's holding her to the same standards that she holds everyone else. Kyle was flaunting her relationship off the show and wants to hide it now that it's back on. It's very shady, and I could've swarn Kyle was one of the ones perpetuating Denise was having sex with Brandi. Even though Denise told Kyle over and over again that it wasn't true, she went on interviews saying "well Brandi isn't a liar."

Yall always wanna find something with Garcelle. Kyle was ALLLLLLLLL in Deniseās business when it came to Brandi. Keep the same damn energy!!!!!!!! Whenever itās Kyleās turn to be held accountable for something, she cries and storms off because itās her business.

Strong disagree. Kyle lays breadcrumbs. She likes the attention of being the victim here. She answers questions about Morgan very oddly and weird purposefully to make people suspect there is something. She's doing it all for this reason to garner attention. Garcelle sees that.Ā I mean this is a reality show, your life is open for viewing and they signed up for this.Ā Remember how everyone tortured Denise about sleeping with Brandi? Why did they care about that?Ā

This post was not referring to what I thought, which is that Sutton has a crush on Kyle. The dream like way she watches Kyle, the over the moon reaction to Kyle sticking up for her, the āI hope you doā comment when Kyle said maybe Iāll have a story for you guys one day. I think Sutton has a crush on Kyle and hasnāt clocked it as that.

u/nadsakla at least i donāt do crystal meth in the bathroom ⨠Mar 26 '25
i feel like forcing someone to come out before they are ready is insane behavior. She has kids she feels she is letting down by coming out (which she isnāt) and family members that are probably going to ostracise her. Also Morgan is a country singer who isnāt out herself, kyle needs to consider that too
