RHOP’s Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon have explained their reasons for doubting Mia Thornton’s cancer scare. Mia dominated news headlines in February after revealing her cancer scare via her Instagram page. However, the issue became a hot topic in The Real Housewives of Potomac‘s season 7 premiere. Mia’s co-stars doubted the seriousness of her health concerns. Chief among them were Gizelle and Robyn, who have now explained why they doubted Mia.
RHOP’s Gizelle And Robyn Explain Their Doubts
During a chat with Us Weekly, Robyn revealed that she was shocked and worried for Mia after she posted her health scare. However, she thought again and wondered why her co-star would share such news with strangers on social media. Robyn added:
“I thought it was odd to share that type of information so prematurely because it definitely caused an emotional reaction in me and I’m like, ‘I couldn’t imagine, like, why you would share this with on a platform like this?’ I definitely had my thoughts.”
Robyn admitted that Mia did not expect the kind of reaction she got after sharing her cancer scare with the world. However, she thought it was good for her co-star to experience that, learn from the group and hear how they felt about her post.
Meanwhile, Gizelle reacted to Mia Thornton’s health scare by saying everything isn’t meant for social media. She said things like cancer should not be joked with before adding:
“So, if you don’t have cancer, then you shouldn’t be telling the world that, and as Housewives, people that are on this public platform, you have to be responsible for the things that you put out there.”
It is good that RHOP’s Gizelle and Robyn took the time to explain how they felt about Mia Thornton’s cancer scare. It is understandable why they felt that way about Mia’s announcement, especially when it wasn’t certain she had cancer. Hopefully, Mia learns from the experience and keys into the advice her co-stars had for her.
