It’s official, folks. The much-anticipated news of Monique Samuels’ divorce has been announced, confirming what many fans of Love and Marriage D.C. already suspected. The signs were there when Monique and her estranged husband, Chris, were noticeably absent from the promos for season 2. While Monique initially cited contract issues as her reason for not returning to The Real Housewives of Potomac, rumors began to circulate that their marital troubles played a bigger role in her decision to step away from the show.
During the first season of their reality series on OWN, tensions between Monique and Chris were evident. Despite their efforts to downplay the rumors and assure fans that divorce was not on the horizon, it’s clear now that their attempts to quell the speculation were filled with deception.
‘RHOP’ to ‘Love & Marriage D.C.’: Where Did It All Go Wrong For Monique and Chris Samuels?
The cracks in Monique and Chris’ marriage became apparent during their time on The Real Housewives of Potomac. Chris took a backseat in their relationship, while Monique seemed to be in control, managing the household and children while Chris handled the finances. However, Monique desired change and after her altercation with Candiace Dillard Bassett, which led to her departure from the show, fans were excited to see her and Chris return to television on OWN. Monique was determined to show her true self. However, season one of their reality series did not paint a picture of a happy marriage.
Throughout the season, viewers couldn’t help but notice the lack of joy in Monique and Chris’ relationship. Monique constantly nagged Chris, pointing out his faults in almost every episode. The season reunion directly addressed this issue, with Monique defending her actions and highlighting the stereotype of Black women being labeled as angry when they express their grievances with their husbands. She denied rumors that she joined the show for financial gain, asserting her belief in their marriage and her desire to make it work. Chris acknowledged his lack of growth within the marriage and understood Monique’s frustrations. He promised change, but it seems that promise was not kept.
