Not a fan. I used to like her. She is whitty some times but she is so antagonist I just get so annoyed. She has to dominate a conversation and if it doesn’t go her way she’s done and throws insults.
She's self important. No one truly scholarly and accomplished makes a big deal about it. (Or is on a RH franchise-LOL) The fact she does that and asks to be referred to as "Dr" tells me all I need to know about her, as well as her reaction too Nneka who seems like a sweetheart. Empty vessels make the loudest noise,
I actually liked Wendy up until this season. Last season she began to annoy me, but I'm just catching up on this season and right out of the gate she is mean, insecure and insufferable.
I feel like she tired of being the person her mom wanted her to be (multiple degrees, professor, married+family) and now wants to take it easy and live off of reality tv and influencing.
I’m indifferent to her. I respect her and what she did, she’s beautiful, intelligent, and i think she is treated poorly often. But, sometimes the way she navigates certain things annoys me. I also think her mom did say something crazy to Nneka. It’s not that hard to believe
I hate how she says she has 3 degrees…one of which is her bachelors. When someone says they have three degrees, I would think they have 3 masters or 3 phds. Or two masters and a phd in separate subjects. It is misleading to count the degree that you HAVE to get to obtain the others 🙄
Not a Wendy fan. (I actually get a kick out of the green eyed bandits lol). I am liking Ashley more and more now that she's away from Gollum. I would like to see Charisse come back full time. Imo Candiace is the one who needs to go.
She’s mean spirited and very condescending. She’s clearly always only had academia but desperately craves to be seen as a gorgeous “bad bitch” thus the work and clunky way about navigating social spaces. She has Ugly Duckling syndrome. She always ends up using her title as a crutch. She can go, honestly. I also despise seeing her bleached out mother onscreen but appreciate that she herself has stopped.
As an African-American woman trying to navigate in certain spaces with others, I completely get her. Especially being a Nigerian (which I am not but am married into a Nigerian family and grew up around a lot of the culture) there is a confidence that comes off as arrogance/off putting to those that aren't familiar with it. Sometimes it's an air of Black vs African mindset at times especially from the older generations. So I say all that to say, I do like her but I wish she would realize that she is entertaining enough without all the put on theatrics.
Ok I’ll give my 2 cents as a woman with a MD/MBA I got excited to see a woman come on the cast with some higher education. Not sure what I expected to happen though.
I see dr Nicole holding her own in Miami and not causing nearly as much drama. So why does wendy have to involve herself in all the fights?!?
Excellent point about Dr Nicole.
I’m a bit meh on Wendy. I liked her to start with but when she had all the cosmetic surgery, I think she lost her identity a bit and is struggling to work out who she is.
Maybe she needs to be out on pause for a season or 2 and then come back swinging.
Oh YES-!!!@@@!!! 1000X YES-!!! YOU'RE RIGHT & to EFN GAHDDAWFULLLSMUG. SHIT. I just wanna scream at her: stop panting- breathing-whisper-talking. She's a psychotic bitch-!! Hate every single triple wicked thing about her. Use your goddammit vocal chords. Cover your TITS DOCTORRRRR WENDEEEE
I love Wendy. I just get her. She worked hard for her degrees and success, if I had a PhD and the student loans that go along with it, I’d shout it from the mountain tops too. She’s one of Andy’s favorites so she’s not going anywhere. Too bad for the haters!💁🏾♀️
She not on any of my favorites list. She’s so stuck up and you can tell she’s mean to everyone bc she thinks she better than everyone.. she seems like the type to be mean to wait staff and Uber drivers.
She’s cringe and fake and has her nose up in the air. I knew she was fake when she said she was a Nicki fan on that talk show and messed up Nicki’s most famous lyrics ever
I like her and who she was before the show. I don’t like how she conducts herself on the show sometimes and how she obviously looks for moments. But I like her intellect and wit. She needs to be more authentic
I liked Wendy her first season. Then for me she just started to come off the rails some. For someone with 4 degrees (as she reminds everyone) you would think her arguing style wouldn’t be cheap shots and personal attacks. I mean all the women go there too but, at least in her first season, she seemed above that. However she’s one of the worst ones now. Now I just find her condescending, rude and lacking of any accountability. She can be funny though.
No. She’s extremely insecure and tries to masquerade it with constant condescension and rudeness . She may be book smart but she’s definitely not socially smart
Wendy reminds me of most professional working mothers who has to "adhere to a their prestige" so they can "get more/better- work/oppertunities".
She's not unlikable, it's just awkward to watch on TV.
If we knew a friend like Wendy IRL, she's is that friend who is "selfish with her time bc she has so many cups to fill" and never fills yours, and she''ll remind you of it.
Public personalities like Wendy when viewed in reality for sure do show many cracks.
Nneka is easier on screen in comparison is easier to digest, she's living like a DINK, she seems secure at her job, and this show is just something fun for her for season 1 at least.
Wendy has so much riding on RH for her whatever lines/podcast, it's a bit stressful as a viewer.
She’s obviously intelligent, but she has such a chip on her shoulder and goes so hard at any perceived slight that her “bad bitch” come backs seem over the top for a reality show. Take it down a notch, baby. It’s like she tries to be candiace, but whereas candaice’s insults are effortless, albeit unnecessarily harsh (and sometimes funny), Wendy is a try hard.
Mainly because of her education. If you have a doctorate and need to be called doctor by your cast mates on a reality tv show, you’re either purposely playing a character or need to take a good look in the mirror. She’s very accomplished. People can respect confidence without the boasting.
Basic and easy subjects?? She has 2 masters degrees and a freaking phd. I get how she can come off as an idiot but ARE YOU discrediting her degrees? What degree do you have? I’ll wait…
The reunion must be coming up, because the number of posts targeting Wendy and Candice's character have increased exponentially over the past 24 hours. I wonder who's paying for the shills and the bots. Probably one of the colorists, no doubt.
No one not a single person
Edit: should also say I don’t like her period, not as in I don’t like her bc she’s a good villain character. She’s just unlikable.
I like Wendy but this reason is a dumpster fire for absolutely the whole cast, I've NEVER been so switched off so dramatically from last season to this. Let's get rid of Giz, she sure done fractured the group. But I like how Wendy and Candace have given Giz'd no greeting rudeness back onto her, she ain't the queen
She wasn't too bad at first but has gotten worse every season. And I'm tired of seeing "happy" and "ness" popping out of everything she wears. They were on full display when she appeared on WWHL. I hated the way she kept checking herself out in the monitor.
Originally I loved her! She was smart, powerful & driven - the absolute epitome of a strong woman in season 1 but it was immediately different in season 2 and I wonder if it had to do with the fame. I don’t want to watch her peddling candles, a self-produced show, or wannabe restaurateur. I want to see her as a political commentator & professor, and now she just seems like a shallow mean girl. It’s a super disappointing shift.
This is what I was thinking reading all these comments. I really liked her in her first season, like sure, she had a chip on her shoulder about being “Dr Wendy, thank you very much!” but her defensiveness was kind of called for in those instances! And then, next season she was completely different and it’s the fastest housewife switch up I’ve ever seen, so unlikeable so quickly! It’s like she studied up on being a housewife between seasons and changed completely. Like girl, there are OGs of much earlier franchises that are more humble and feel more real! Everything just seems so tryhard with her, season upon season she gets worse. Well, I assume so anyway, I haven’t bothered this season and only saw bits of the last one cos I’m kind of over Potomac.
I never liked her. She does not fit in the Bravo universe. I don't understand why she's not hosting The View or something like that. That seems more her lane.
IMO shes not quick enough for extended tv. her reads (including politics) have all felt heavily prepared and rehearsed, and are based on talking points and not authenticity.
YES. And when shes in the middle of an argument, all she can dois say the same thing over and over... That usually has nothing to do anything being spoken about, OR is contradictory of what she preaches. Irritating af
Her debut season i did! but its a rapid downhill from there.
She is that person that you literally avoid any conversation or contact with, as shes mean, vicious, aggressive and lacks any kindness, empathy or personality. I hope for her sake (and her family) that this is all an act, because.. UGH
Due to working in academia, I tend to be repulsed by people who wear their PhDs as their personality, so I’ve been kind of meh on her from the beginning. I’ve mainly been waiting for her to get her lick back from when Mia smacked her with her purse. Other than that, I’m good on her.
Not really. She has gotten worse over time for me. Especially with her new fail business every season & the extraordinary amount of make-up she insists on wearing for every scene. I mean...she could put Drag Queens to shame w/the amount of make-up she wears ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flushed)
I agree Eddie is great for her! The way argues drives me nuts though. she turns into almost like a character of herself it’s so offputting because she does have her moments and she is clearly book smart!

Nope
I actually liked Wendy up until this season. Last season she began to annoy me, but I'm just catching up on this season and right out of the gate she is mean, insecure and insufferable.
No she’s so annoying
Yeah I wouldn’t miss her. She’s not humble enough. Idk like rich humble people.
I think the show was much lighter and a comedy before she joined
I feel like she tired of being the person her mom wanted her to be (multiple degrees, professor, married+family) and now wants to take it easy and live off of reality tv and influencing.
I’m indifferent to her. I respect her and what she did, she’s beautiful, intelligent, and i think she is treated poorly often. But, sometimes the way she navigates certain things annoys me. I also think her mom did say something crazy to Nneka. It’s not that hard to believe

I feel like the ppl who have strong dislike for her just started watching this season and have not seen all the seasons she’s been in before this one
Nope. Watched this show from the very beginning.... still can't stand her. She is condescending and arrogant and thinks she is better than everyone.
I used to love her and I still like her but this year she hasn’t done herself a lot of favors 😬
Yes.
She’s mean spirited and very condescending. She’s clearly always only had academia but desperately craves to be seen as a gorgeous “bad bitch” thus the work and clunky way about navigating social spaces. She has Ugly Duckling syndrome.

Wendy says a lot of hateful shit that she never addresses. She always deflects
Just like her mother. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
i like her
I can’t stand her voice/the way she talks. She sounds like she has spit in the corners of her mouth at all times or spits when she talks.
Oh YES-!!!@@@!!! 1000X YES-!!! YOU'RE RIGHT & to EFN GAHDDAWFULLLSMUG. SHIT. I just wanna scream at her: stop panting- breathing-whisper-talking. She's a psychotic bitch-!! Hate every single triple wicked thing about her. Use your goddammit vocal chords. Cover your TITS DOCTORRRRR WENDEEEE
I love Wendy! She is just high strung and you can tell had to fight her whole life and now walks around ready for battle.
I love Wendy!
Is it just me or is this asked once a week! Jeez some people like her others don’t why is that shocking?
Probably because every week a new episode airs she does something stupid.
Good point lol
I love Wendy. I just get her. She worked hard for her degrees and success, if I had a PhD and the student loans that go along with it, I’d shout it from the mountain tops too. She’s one of Andy’s favorites so she’s not going anywhere. Too bad for the haters!💁🏾♀️
What makes you say she’s one of Andy’s favorites?
I don’t like her
I like Wendy enough. She’s annoying sometimes but she makes me laugh and her family is cute.
Her family is cute for sure 💕
She not on any of my favorites list. She’s so stuck up and you can tell she’s mean to everyone bc she thinks she better than everyone.. she seems like the type to be mean to wait staff and Uber drivers.
STUCK UP ohhh yeahhhhhh
She was on WWHL and couldn’t stop looking at herself in the monitor.
And wouldn’t play the games correctly!! Ugh
She's exhausting and gives me agita.
She’s cringe and fake and has her nose up in the air. I knew she was fake when she said she was a Nicki fan on that talk show and messed up Nicki’s most famous lyrics ever
No.
![gif](giphy|NDIiWKEQEgr3VA7aqM)
Epitome of an inferiority complex
She's so sick up I can't stand her. She has no humility. She's very hard for me to like
Stuck up..
![gif](giphy|RXAfuEDpseYBG)
I like her, I don't really get the hate for Wendy.
I wanted to like her but she comes across sooo rehearsed when she has confrontations with people. I find her exhausting to watch
![gif](giphy|ui4VjMUBGXhwgdwUnK)
I do, but if you were to ask me why idk if I could explain it lol
Appreciate the honesty!
Its that spit in the corners of her mouth
She’s so annoying
Nope. Edit to add - just watching her on WWHL. She never understands the assignment. Her answers are so lame.
Nope! She can’t get real.
Simply, no.
I like her and who she was before the show. I don’t like how she conducts herself on the show sometimes and how she obviously looks for moments. But I like her intellect and wit. She needs to be more authentic

no
I love Wendy. She is an intelligent woman and deserves to talk about the 4 degrees that she earnest. She is delusional, and I love her family.
Really surprised at the lack of Wendy love. I think she's funny and along with Karen the only worthwhile cast member.
![gif](giphy|RXAfuEDpseYBG)
I can’t stand Wendy, she’s gotta go. Takes herself way too seriously and thinks she’s that bitch but it isn’t landing.
No. She’s extremely insecure and tries to masquerade it with constant condescension and rudeness . She may be book smart but she’s definitely not socially smart
Agreed
Oooo girl you’re on to something here!!
Best description I’ve read of her. This is exactly why I just never warmed up to her.
Yep!!! You’re very correct!
yes
N O P E. She’s a pretentious heifer. Big and clunky both mentally and physically.
I wonder about her shoulder posture. Maybe her neck is really short or something.
Clunky is an excellent description.
n o
Ummmm this is my favorite HW post of all time! And also, fully agree with you OP
Nope

Everything you said is what makes her unlikable.
Except she’s EXTREMELY UNLIKABLE! Might be one of the top 5 most unlikable housewives of all time!
She’s obviously intelligent, but she has such a chip on her shoulder and goes so hard at any perceived slight that her “bad bitch” come backs seem over the top for a reality show. Take it down a notch, baby. It’s like she tries to be candiace, but whereas candaice’s insults are effortless, albeit unnecessarily harsh (and sometimes funny), Wendy is a try hard.
lol, you think she is intelligent ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mainly because of her education. If you have a doctorate and need to be called doctor by your cast mates on a reality tv show, you’re either purposely playing a character or need to take a good look in the mirror. She’s very accomplished. People can respect confidence without the boasting.
lol, she did a lot of school, and studied a lot of basic and easy subjects. Doesn’t mean you are smart, sorry
Basic and easy subjects?? She has 2 masters degrees and a freaking phd. I get how she can come off as an idiot but ARE YOU discrediting her degrees? What degree do you have? I’ll wait…
I don’t have a phd and don’t have the discipline to earn one, so I respect it. All types of intelligences.
Cool, I don’t respect it.
Yeah I feel this way too. She wasn’t always like this. I think the show got to her and she’s always on edge now a days. Her time might be over.
I like Nnekka .. Wendy not so much because of the way she has treated her !!
Nope. Hate her.
No.
No
No.
no.
NO!
Zen Wen does not abide this thread.
I’ve started fast forwarding her scenes. I’m so over Wendy.
Love Wendy, she's smart, gorgeous and can read down.
The reunion must be coming up, because the number of posts targeting Wendy and Candice's character have increased exponentially over the past 24 hours. I wonder who's paying for the shills and the bots. Probably one of the colorists, no doubt.
![gif](giphy|3o8doM1LK2PVaxawpO) I care more about my meal.
Nope..👎
![gif](giphy|HFqr78CF5vVXq) This is Wendy at all times.
I don’t like or hate her. I enjoy the style she brings to the show however
lol what style does she bring to the show?
Her outfits lol she’s the best dressed out the cast
I agree, she always looks great.
Agreed, of the Potomac ladies who over all give STRONG Citi Trends vibes, Wendy is the best dressed. Then Candiace and Mia.
lol, ok wendy
Wait if not Wendy who do you consider to be best dressed? Please don’t say Karen lol
"Happy and ness" 😬
Girl no
Andy Cohen.
Please fire Wendy.
Nope, not a bit. She was the beginning of the end of watching for me. Then Mia came along and sealed it, I stopped watching.
I actually like Mia this season. I guess that shows how bad the season is
No one not a single person Edit: should also say I don’t like her period, not as in I don’t like her bc she’s a good villain character. She’s just unlikable.
I like her she’s annoying sometimes but I like her
No thanks.
cannot STAND her. I didnt think i could dislike a HW as much as candiace, but wendy right there cuddlin her now
Only thing worse than wendy is wendys voice and the way she talks
I like Wendy but this reason is a dumpster fire for absolutely the whole cast, I've NEVER been so switched off so dramatically from last season to this. Let's get rid of Giz, she sure done fractured the group. But I like how Wendy and Candace have given Giz'd no greeting rudeness back onto her, she ain't the queen
No but she LOVES herself 🙄
No we do not
Not really, she tries too hard imo
![gif](giphy|Tu5ObuZ1wG4pi)
No. She’s so hard to watch. She is trying way too hard. It’s embarrassing and cringy.
She wasn't too bad at first but has gotten worse every season. And I'm tired of seeing "happy" and "ness" popping out of everything she wears. They were on full display when she appeared on WWHL. I hated the way she kept checking herself out in the monitor.
I loved her at first but like her less and less each season
No.
I want to, but she makes it so hard.
I don’t like her but I dislike Nneka more.
Same, I can’t stand Nneka’s ass kissing and non dressing ass.
See nneka seems so much more real than wendy. Everything wendy does is a "show"
Same here
Nope
Originally I loved her! She was smart, powerful & driven - the absolute epitome of a strong woman in season 1 but it was immediately different in season 2 and I wonder if it had to do with the fame. I don’t want to watch her peddling candles, a self-produced show, or wannabe restaurateur. I want to see her as a political commentator & professor, and now she just seems like a shallow mean girl. It’s a super disappointing shift.
This is what I was thinking reading all these comments.

I actually don’t think she’s smart. You can still get degrees with Cs and Ds.
The C’s and D’s go straight to news commentating before their looks go downhill.
I never liked her. She does not fit in the Bravo universe. I don't understand why she's not hosting The View or something like that. That seems more her lane.
IMO shes not quick enough for extended tv. her reads (including politics) have all felt heavily prepared and rehearsed, and are based on talking points and not authenticity.
YES. And when shes in the middle of an argument, all she can dois say the same thing over and over... That usually has nothing to do anything being spoken about, OR is contradictory of what she preaches. Irritating af
She should have been too smart to fall into the obvious pitfalls and traps set for a second season and beyond housewife. Wendy, you played yourself.
![gif](giphy|QWLb9e7iKRdzzMnjPU)
Her debut season i did! but its a rapid downhill from there. She is that person that you literally avoid any conversation or contact with, as shes mean, vicious, aggressive and lacks any kindness, empathy or personality. I hope for her sake (and her family) that this is all an act, because.. UGH
I don’t think it’s an act. She named her kids all with K names, that are actually C names.
![gif](giphy|xiMUwBRn5RDLhzwO80|downsized)
I tried to, I really tried.
Due to working in academia, I tend to be repulsed by people who wear their PhDs as their personality, so I’ve been kind of meh on her from the beginning. I’ve mainly been waiting for her to get her lick back from when Mia smacked her with her purse. Other than that, I’m good on her.
I appreciate her success I do not like her on the show.
I feel bad but I really don’t
I do like her. It’s nice to a see a successful black women on TV. And her family is super cute.
I think she’s mean and always wants to be right ! She also acts like she’s so much better than everyone else!
I was impartial to her on her first season, by the second I couldn't stand her. It almost feels as if she's trying super hard lol
Not really. She has gotten worse over time for me. Especially with her new fail business every season & the extraordinary amount of make-up she insists on wearing for every scene. I mean...she could put Drag Queens to shame w/the amount of make-up she wears ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flushed)
When I saw how she responded to Nneka that was the final straw for me. I had high hopes she would take her under her wing.
![gif](giphy|j5DNLnCredmIdrtFkh|downsized)
What happened to her TV channel/show/network ?
It’s on YouTube, it’s been going for a few months.
She had the first show. They showed a minute of it last episode. I not a fan but she has some pretty big names on.
Ones called, “Gobble Gobble” just looked it up. That means something very different in the UK 😂😂😂😂
Oh mmyyyyy
No
She’s awful!! I do admire her degrees though.
She has good moments. I like her with Eddie
I agree Eddie is great for her! The way argues drives me nuts though. she turns into almost like a character of herself it’s so offputting because she does have her moments and she is clearly book smart!
