Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey is set to appear with her sister Malorie Bailey on an upcoming episode of Iyanla: Fix My Life.

They should have called this episode ‘The Charley Episode’ because even though she’s not in every scene, Charley Bordelon (Dawn Lyen Gardner) dominates Episode 9, officially called “The Tree And Stone Were One.” Sadly, there are only four episodes left as Queen Sugar takes no midseason break this year.

This episode “Fruit of the Flower” picks up pretty quickly from the last one. Nova (Rutina Wesley) is preparing for her upcoming television appearance with Doc Sexy, I mean Dr. Robert Dubois. (Alimi Ballard). She’s more flustered than we’re used to seeing her and thinking a lot about what that key he offered means for […]
We are back! Like just about everything else this year, the six-week gap between Queen Sugar episodes seemed to fly by.
