The ladies headed to the Philippines on sort of a getaway therapy trip and kudos goes to Claudia! The trip turned out to be a great idea, because on their first night there, Kenya and Phaedra agreed to to have a genuine conversation and try to finally put things behind them. I should note that it's actually Phaedra who finally agreed to have the conversation, because Kenya has been trying for a while now to bury the hatchet. 

During dinner that night, Kenya called Phaedra out for being unreceptive when people are trying to make amends with her, citing their ill fated attempts at reconciliation. Phaedra let her know that the reason why refused to speak to her wasn't because she was trying to be stubborn, but because she flat out doesn't believe Apollo's recant. For a while it seemed like they were going to go back in forth as usual, but then Claudia, who's quickly becoming the RHOA peacemaker, asked them if there was anything they could say to end things once and for all. That's when the magical moment happened - Phaedra agreed to have a peace talk with Kenya. 

For those of you who haven't been watching the show, I'll give you a rundown of their history. When Kenya first came on the show, Phaedra's husband Apollo (who is now incarcerated) got really flirtatious with Kenya. Now, Phaedra and Kenya actually started out as friends and that went awry when a business deal went south and the fact that Kenya actually flirted back with Apollo didn't help. Then a RHOA reunion revealed that Kenya and Apollo had been texting back and forth and that they may have seen each other when they were both in LA for business, sans Phaedra. All of this came straight from Apollo's mouth, and he even said that Kenya offered to perform sexual acts on him. Phaedra called Kenya all types of hoes and sluts, all to have Apollo say he was lying the entire time. 

After everything that's happened between the two of them, can they make it work? Now that Apollo is in jail, Phaedra might need a friend! Stay tuned for next week to see how their private talk goes!
