“It’s not even like Kyle has communicated with PK since we broke up,” Kemsley said. “The point is, when you and I don’t talk, when we’re not feeling well, you text my husband. It’s just not right.”

“I’m trying to be in a good place in my life,” she added. “I love you and PK and your kids, and you know that, I know you know that. I was made to feel like I did something wrong, you know, when I texted PK, so I said, ‘That’s me.’ I’ll read this once and that’s it.

“He makes a joke in April,” she continued. “The next text won’t come until the day you broke up. I said, ‘I know you have a lot of friends, I am one too. If you need me, I have never repeated anything you have shared with me.’ and wouldn’t do it either.’ That said, I don’t mean that’s what you mean.
Richards then pointed to the production team and indicated that she would not be sharing any details with production.
Garcelle Beauvais doesn’t believe Richards’ apology
After Richards storms out of the spa day, Beauvais is shown in the confessional breaking down the text message Richards read aloud.
“I don’t understand what her conversation with PK has to do with production,” Beauvais said. “So if you had a private conversation with someone and wanted to say, ‘I will never share with production what we talked about,’ you would write ‘with production’ – and she didn’t.”
“In any case, things don’t look good,” Beauvais added. “Because of course that means it was more than just memes and jokes. Because if they’re memes and jokes, share them! The production also likes to laugh.”
