After the event was featured on last week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Drew, 38, said she felt “[slapped] in [her] face” by Sheree, 53, who suggested Drew is a liar and is secretly on good terms with the man, her former assistant Anthony Gaskin, as Kandi Burruss, 47, shared her own thoughts on the matter.
“To be honest with you, it wasn’t on my mind. When I’m planning Mecca’s Sip and See, I’m not thinking about [Drew],” Sheree said on the August 20 episode of the RHOA: After Show.
While Sheree noted that her mind was elsewhere, she also took aim at Drew’s past lies.
“I know she lies so much that you just never know what to believe,” she stated.
According to Sheree, she was told things that led her to believe any tension between Drew and Anthony had been resolved.
“[Anthony] said that I think she or her assistant would invite him, still, to different events, like, he got an invite to [Ralph Pittman Jr.’s] birthday party. So the assistant is still in contact with Anthony, so I didn’t think it would be an issue,” she explained, adding, “They probably were not the only two people in the room who didn’t get along. People are able to be grown and cordial and co-exist.”
Then, after Kandi pointed out that Anthony had “said some bad things about Sheree” in the past, and claimed she “wouldn’t have necessarily invited him,” Sheree confirmed she and Anthony made up last year.
“He apologized. He said he didn’t say the things Drew said he said,” she revealed.
Still, Kandi felt that a heads-up would’ve been nice.
“I understand it’s your party. You can invite who you wanna invite, but you can give [Drew] a heads up,” she stated. “[Drew] could’ve said, ‘Well I’m gonna bring my husband.’ Or [she] could’ve brought someone with [her] to make you feel protected in some way or been prepared at least.”
“What Kandi said. [And] I did invite my husband to come,” Drew replied.
Drew then compared Sheree’s invite to Anthony to a “slap in my face” before somewhat shadily noting that she understood why he was there.
“He introduced her to [Martell Holt, 41]. So it’s all about the man, honey,” Drew said. “[And] I know that Antony has a marketing degree, and that’s all I’ll say. Because I’m not gonna say specifically, but I know he has a marketing degree.”
Drew then got to her point, saying, “He can call a blogger and have them meet in the back row, in the rocky road, and it was Anthony that put it together, so I’m just saying, I understand why he was probably invited.”
