Gizelle Bryant‘s ex-husband Jamal Bryant is furious at Monique Samuels for slandering his good name on Real Housewives of Potomac.
Bryant, senior pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Georgia, has denied the cheating rumors involving members of his congregation in a response to Monique’s accusations on the RHOP reunion.
Monique reportedly brought receipts to Part 1 of the RHOP reunion. She accused Bryant of cheating on Gizelle and fathering several children out of wedlock.
There are rumors that Bryant has fathered at least one child out of wedlock while married to Gizelle, but he denied the allegations in his Instagram Live.
“From the jump, you need to know tonight is not an apology. I’m not asking for anybody’s forgiveness,” he said.
“Tonight is for clarity. For five seasons, I’ve never said anything about Potomac. Never said anything in a post, an interview, a tweet or a text. I average about 56 interviews a year, and in no terms have I ever mentioned Potomac — good, bad, or ugly.”
He went on to say he would never appear on the series again and he’s never even met Monique.
“And I want you to know that I will NEVER be on the Housewives of Potomac or anything in that franchise ever again. But I wanted you to know why. It has been a gross misrepresentation of my character, my ministry and my humanhood.
“Monique Samuels I’ve never met. Never shook her hand, never been in the room with her and yet, she’s assassinated my character with anger and hostility.
“I’ve got to address this because, on national, international television, you labeled me a ‘Holy Whore.’ I’m not sleeping with any woman in my church. I have no babies in my church. I have no inappropriate relationship with any woman in my church.”
Bryant also addressed Monique’s husband, Chris Samuels, whom he accused of abusing Monique.
“You became hostile and it was misdirected rage, it was misdirected rage, uh, because you live in a house with a man who has anger management, who doesn’t mind expressing volatile behavior.
“And everything I’m saying tonight is, uh, not conjecture. This is not murder, this is self-defense. So, on Sunday for the first time in five years, I’m inviting my audience to watch the reunion.
“Chris, you’ve got to take care of CTE. Some of your former teammates contacted me, they’re concerned… We have the footage of that but I’m not going to air that. I’m asking you to please get help. I’ve tracked down your pastor so all that I’m saying is in love, so your pastor can help you get the help that is needed and that is necessary.”
He also accused Monique of sleeping with her personal trainer, and he claimed the trainer is her baby daddy.
It was all too much for Bryant’s parishioners – some of whom fainted on their social media timelines. After they recovered from the shock, they promised to tune in to Part 2 of the RHOP reunion show.
