The fifth season of The Real Housewives of Potomac, an American reality television series, is broadcast on Bravo.

Cast and synopsis

In November 2019, reports were published of a physical altercation between housewives Candiace Dillard and Monique Samuels, while filming for the fifth season.[1][2] As a result, charges were filed and subsequently dropped against both Dillard and Samuels.[3]

In March 2020, it was announced the series would return May 3, 2020, with the cast of the fourth season returning, and Wendy Osefo joining as the newest housewife.[4] Following the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, Bravo pulled the premiere and later announced the season to premiere on August 2, 2020.[5][6] The season also featured a guest appearance from original housewife, Charrisse Jackson Jordan.[7]

On December 27, 2020, following the season finale, Samuels announced her departure from the franchise. She stated: "It was a crazy ride. It's not easy doing reality TV, and to be quite honest, I'm over it. I appreciate everything people have done for me, everybody that has been Team Monique, I love y'all, I thank y'all. But when you cross certain lines, there's no going back. For me, my family is that line. The opinion of my family and my kids and what they think about anything that I do is more valuable to me than anybody's opinion, so I'm over it."[8][9]
