Rumors are swirling that Robyn Dixon has been fired from The Real Housewives of Potomac. Although Bravo has yet to confirm the news, there’s a solid chunk of people out there celebrating the potential downfall of the Green-Eyed Bandits. Newbie Nneka Ihim isn’t one of them, and she thinks Robyn deserves to keep her spot on the show.
Nneka sat down with Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp on Two Ts in A Pod, and they discussed all of the drama surrounding RHOP. The Two Ts have been very vocal about their opinions on Season 8. However, when the subject turned to Robyn’s rumored firing, Nneka had all positive things to say about her castmate.
Nneka is Team Robyn
On the podcast, Nneka opened up about her friendship with Robyn. Although we didn’t see too much of their friendship in Season 8, Nneka said that Robyn has been supportive of her since before the cameras started rolling.
“I genuinely and sincerely love Robyn. She is a phenomenal person, she’s a great friend,” Nneka said.
She continued, “You know, when I started this process she called me and was like, ‘Girl let me give you the 411 on all this stuff.’ She educated me on how things work.”
Nneka admitted that she wasn’t sure if the rumors about Robyn’s exit were true. She’s new to this world, but she knows better than to speculate on potential casting shakeups. Still, she said it would “be wise to keep” Robyn on RHOP because she’s “great TV.”
The RHOP newbie added that she’s even a fan of Juan Dixon. Nneka said she “likes him a lot,” which is more reason to keep Robyn around the friend circle. If only Juan could be a fan of supporting his wife on TV, perhaps her job wouldn’t be at risk.
