The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 aired episode 3 on October 20, 2024. The segment saw Karen and Ashley argue when Stacey, Ashley, and Karen got together at Jassi's house to discuss Gizelle kicking the cast out of her event.

By the time Karen arrived, Ashley and Jassi were already arguing about the latter closing the door over her van in Ashley's face. Karen asked the two what happened, and Ashley said Gizelle told her Karen was not inviting the cast to her event to avoid a conflict of interest, but the latter sent out a group invite later.

Ashley said Karen wouldn't tell them what award she was getting, while Stacey defended her and said Karen answered every question. This led to an argument between the RHOP cast members, which fans reacted to online. One person wrote on X:

"Ashley is getting on my nerves this season. She not anyone's friend at all"
"Ashley did not eat. She tryna make a messy irrelevant case," a fan commented.
"Ashley was quick to go for the white meat about Karen facing jail time potentially when all Karen did was talk about her d*mn feet. She’s lucky she didn’t do that with Candiace cause she’d have been crying on the floor," a tweet read.

Some fans of The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 fans criticized Ashley:

"That was a good line, Ashley! One of the few you've had in a while. But then Auntie Karen made you chuckle and it fell flat. LOL! Tsk," a person wrote.
"Ashley has been holding that in waiting for Karen she lowkey ate but ate the wrong time. Ashley knows she’s on the chopping block for next season so she’s not clocking out," a fan commented.
"I mean Karen should’ve seen that coming. What else was Ashley supposed to say after getting cooked like that? You done called out Michael’s a** pinching & called her bunions a whole human being. Ashley had no place left to go!" a tweet read.

Fans of RHOP season 9 further said:

"Ashley not a friend fr fr she just be wanting to know the mess and then throw low blows," a fan commented.
"Karen should've told Ashley she's lucky Michael didn't get jail time, cause his fruity pebble a** would've been doing more bending behind bars than he already does in the free world," a person wrote.

The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 episode 3 — Ashley and Karen argue about the latter's event and DUI

In The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 episode 3, Karen and Ashley argued about Karen inviting the cast to her event the same day as Gizelle's. The cast member questioned Karen about the group invite and the RHOP star said the award she was getting was "very prestigious" and she wanted to share it with the cast.

Ashley told her when she asked her what the award was last week, Karen wouldn't tell her and the latter said she was at an inquisition party at the time. Stacey defended Karen and said The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 star answered every question. Ashley called her answer a "deflection."

Karen brought up Ashley's ex-husband's alleged "b*tt pinching" which came to light after season 1 and how the cast member wouldn't answer questions about it. Karen reminded Ashley she was in a case where she could have been killed while referring to her March 2024 DUI.

"Or, taken the life of somebody else," Ashley said.

The Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 star Karen said she was grateful nobody else was hurt and recalled Ashley gifting her Uber coupons earlier in the season. The Bravo celebrity said Ashley was trying to be "shady." Karen said she should have given them back to her so she could get her bunions removed.

Fans of The Real Housewives of Potomac reacted to the conversation online and were critical of Ashley.

Episodes 1 to 3 of The Real Housewives of Potomac are available to stream on Bravo.
