The Real Housewives of Lagos has been delivering premium entertainment, from luxury trips to unexpected alliances and jaw-dropping confrontations from the very first episode. With 10 episodes in, there’s been no shortage of drama, style, and unforgettable moments that have kept social media talking.
Here are 10 unforgettable moments that have defined the season so far:
Carolyna’s grand comeback
When Carolyna made her entrance, she did it with undeniable confidence and elegance. Fans immediately took notice of her poised demeanor, setting the tone for a season where her presence would be felt, considering how things left off in the first season where she made her debut. Her return also reignited past tensions, leaving everyone wondering—would old wounds be healed, or would new drama unfold? One thing was certain: Carolyna didn’t come here to play.
The one-sided apology that got everyone on the edge of their seats
Carolyna’s emotional apology to Laura was a defining moment, showing growth and reflection. It was unexpected yet refreshing to see an attempt at reconciliation. However, while many felt it was a necessary step forward, others questioned if Laura should have reciprocated. Did this moment bring closure, or was it just another chapter in their ongoing tension? Either way, the moment became a huge talking point among fans.
Regardless, the two gave us a sweet sismance moment we never thought we needed when they reconciled and put their differences aside while forming a budding friendship on the show.
The ‘gele’ moment at Diiadem’s party
Diiadem’s Afrocentric chic party came with a simple rule—no gele. However, Mariam had other plans, arriving in one! The unexpected twist turned into one of the season’s funniest and most talked-about moments. The clip of Mariam’s arrival quickly went viral, with fans debating whether it was harmless fun or a deliberate act of defiance.
Sophia’s entrance and her "roll in different circles” comment
Sophia’s arrival was nothing short of dramatic as the fans eagerly anticipated her entrance from the very first episode and anxiously had to wait until episode four. Her remark about not moving in the same circles as Diiadem instantly sparked conversations. Was it a harmless comment or a subtle dig? Fans couldn’t decide whether Sophia was simply stating facts or throwing major shade. Either way, this single statement set the tone for future interactions between the two, making their dynamic one to watch.
Dabota vs. Sophia: The boat wahala
The first major clash of the season unfolded when Sophia and Dabota found themselves in disagreement over a boat situation. Dabota felt disrespected for being kept waiting, while Sophia stood her ground, insisting she had every right to use her own boat. This disagreement had social media in a chokehold, with fans passionately debating who was right. It also marked the beginning of a shift in alliances, as the ladies picked sides – with Diiadem and Dabota on one team and Mariam, Carolyna and Sophia were on the other.
The hosting chronicles
As tensions escalated, a disagreement between Dabota and Sophia turned into a full-blown confrontation. The exchange had fans picking sides, with some feeling Dabota was too harsh with her hosting behavior towards Sophia as she kept referring to her as a “plus one”, while others felt Sophia was being dramatic. The question remains—was this clash inevitable, or could they have handled it differently?
Carolyna’s big revelation about her past with Dabota
Carolyna finally addressed the root of her tension with Dabota, and it was a game-changing moment. She revealed that their issues stemmed from a personal situation in her past, adding layers to the already complex dynamics between them. This revelation had fans completely re-evaluate their interactions throughout the season. Did this moment bring clarity, or did it just add more fuel to the fire?
Akwaaba baby!
Sophia’s Ghana getaway had both the ladies and the fans excited, but the biggest question was whether everyone would go. With friendships shifting and unresolved conflicts still lingering from the first girls’ trip, Dabota confessed that she didn’t want to go to Ghana, leaving us wondering if the trip had the potential to bring peace or chaos. Nonetheless, fans were quick to compare Sophia's hosting skills in Ghana with Dabota's beach hosting.
We were however glad to see both Sophia and Dabota have a lengthy conversation about the boat drama and hug it out.
The clash that broke plates and the internet
After weeks of rising tension, Carolyna and Dabota’s issues finally reached a breaking point. A tense conversation turned into one of the most intense moments of the season, complete with raised voices, accusations flying, and a physical altercation leaving broken plates, bottles, and a broken table. Was this the fight that needed to happen for closure, or was it just the beginning of an even bigger fallout? One thing was for sure, this was RHOLagos history in the making.
Carolyna vs. Diiadem and Dabota
The tension between Carolyna, Diiadem, and Dabota has been brewing for episodes now, and it all came to a head in one of the season’s most heated episodes. Carolyna has made it clear that she believes Diiadem doesn’t have a mind of her own and is carrying Dabota’s fight on her head, while she’s also been vocal about her thoughts on Dabota’s personality and what she perceives as fakeness.
Since the boat party drama, the friction between the trio has only escalated with each episode, leading to fiery words and intense exchanges. But after Carolyna’s physical altercation with Dabota, the question remains—is there any way forward for these three, or has the damage been done?
From show-stopping fashion to friendships being tested, the first 10 episodes have been nothing short of iconic. The ladies have served drama, laughter, and luxury in equal measure, and the best part? There’s still more to come. With alliances shifting and confrontations far from over, fans can expect even more unforgettable moments in the episodes ahead, leading to the season finale.
