The Real Housewives of Potomac delivered another jaw-dropper. Episode 10 centered squarely on Stacey Rusch. And nothing stayed calm for long.
The hour revolved around Stacey’s SHAYO cannabis launch. What should have been a business milestone quickly turned into a public showdown. Voices rose. Tempers flared. A guest got kicked out. Cameras caught everything.
This was not a soft launch. This was reality TV chaos.
Stacey Uses Her Big Night to Clear the Air
Before the party, Stacey met with her best friend AJ. The message was simple. Stand up. Stop backing down. Remember Detroit.
Stacey listened.
At the event, Stacey confronted Tia Glover and Ashley Darby in front of shoppers and guests. The conversation went sideways fast. Words escalated. Tension exploded.
Then came the moment fans will not forget.
Stacey waved Tia out with a pageant-style “toodle doo.”
Tia fired back. She called Stacey trash. She stormed out. She vowed never to support the brand.
The launch survived. The friendships did not.
Keiarna Stewart’s Absence Says Everything
One detail did not go unnoticed. Keiarna Stewart skipped the party.
That absence may have saved the night from total meltdown. Keiarna and Stacey already clashed last episode. Adding her to the mix could have turned verbal into volcanic.
The tension still loomed. And it followed Stacey long after the music stopped.
Stacey such a gorgeous woman but at the same time she gives off a dork energy… so it's not that shocking that she's with Temu lol 🥰🙌#RHOP 🌸 pic.twitter.com/mzDaDwvS7G

Stacey and Keiarna’s Feud Keeps Growing
The After Show only fueled the fire.
Stacey brushed off the rivalry. “I don’t think about Kay,” she said. The comment landed hard.
Other castmates saw it differently. Wendy Osefo pointed out that the indifference stings. Monique Samuels agreed. Gizelle Bryant noted that these two bring out the worst in each other.
Keiarna’s take cut deeper.
She questioned Stacey’s authenticity. “She’s a great time when she’s being whatever version of herself that’s normal,” Keiarna said.
That line stuck.
The Sneak Peek Confirms Things Are Getting Ugly
A preview for the next episode shows the feud going face-to-face.
Stacey and Keiarna sit down for a tense conversation. It starts awkward. It gets worse.
Stacey orders burrata. Keiarna reminds her about a cheese allergy. Stacey looks stunned. Keiarna looks hurt.
“That’s kind of sad,” Stacey says.
Keiarna does not agree.
Old wounds resurface. Accusations fly. Flashbacks roll. From the Bloom Ball to Gizelle’s house, every insult comes back up.
“You’re a phony. You’re a fraud,” Keiarna once said. Now Stacey wants answers.
The past is no longer buried. It is front and center.
Why This Feud Feels Different
This is not petty shade. This feels personal.
Stacey appears unbothered. Keiarna feels dismissed. That imbalance fuels the tension.
And viewers can sense it. This feud is not cooling down. It is heating up.
RHOP has found its spark this season. And Stacey Rusch is striking the match.
