Nearly unscathed, save for some dog poo, Stacey Rusch had one of the best freshman season’s.
And then the reunion came along and everything turned.
The majority ofStacey’s season was spent centered around her slightly strange relationship with TJ.Were they coworkers?
What was once an amicable friendship has turned into career-damaging accusations.
But to get to the truth of the matter, one must sift through the lies.
At least when the cameras were rolling.
Perhaps manufactured affection,their relationship was one of convenience.
Stacey came to the show with a significant other.
TJ, a professional actor, got exposure.
Now, with the reunion being the official tipping point, the true nature is being called into question.
Did Stacey pay TJ to play a part?
Is he lying about the entire situation?
Did he even like her?
No matter what, Stacey’s entire season has to be reanalyzed with the bold accusations in the ether.
He, however, did not.
So why not fabricate a little romance with a close pal?
It was time for Stacey to get some heat.
Was there any truth in the allegation?
Well, there was only one to find out: “Bring Eddie out!”
He plopped down on the couch with the ladies to watch.
The women were aghast.
Stacey gets a story about being able to move on with her life.
TJ gets his name out there.
Let’s be real.
Not all actors are calculated but this one is.
What bigger platform is there than Bravo andThe Real Housewives?
Messy Mia, get out!
Nevertheless,Wendy Osefostood by her man, going full tilt that he would never lie.
But he could have been peddling alternative facts.
To be fair, we did learn that TJwasinvited by production.
TJ claimed he was not.
So, there’s a lie.
She didn’t have any concrete evidence to refute TJ.
She instead floundered and tried to pass off the blame.
Now, to be fair, the other women did bash Stacey and TJ’s relationship all season long.
They were at the forefront of calling into question the validity of it.
How they questioned Stacey all season long was not great.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a vow of celibacy, but TJ and Stacey were mocked for it.
There’s no doubt that Stacey had some semblance of feelings toward TJ.
All season long, her inability to define the status of their relationship became a giant red flag.
The debacle ended up becoming the bombshell momentRHOPneeded to close out its season.
It was just embarrassing for all parties involved.
Not doing so made her look guilty.
Stacey is the star of the show, so we want to believe her.
We’ve seen worse!
The fan speculation over the entire situation is split.
TJ can easily be seen as a clout chaser.
As someone who has worked deep within the world of entertainment, he’s displaying those tactics.
At this time, they’veused their platforms to double down on their truths.
We’ll be waiting for that “earth-shattering news” Mr. Jones.
The popcorn is popping!
