Pastor Jamal Bryant reacts to ‘RHOP’ reunion accusations of cheating on Gizelle

“Real Housewives of Potomac” star Gizelle Bryant caught the full wrath of co-star Monique Samuels during Sunday night’s Season 5 reunion, as Samuels accused Bryant of sticking her nose in others’ relationships while not having her own house in order.

According to Samuels, Bryant — who claims to have reconciled with ex-husband, Pastor Jamal Bryant — is being cheated on by the man of God, reading text messages she was allegedly sent from a woman minister claiming to have dated Pastor Bryant during his on-screen reconciliation with Gizelle.

Pouring salt on the wound, Samuels read the phone number attached to the damning text messages aloud, leading Gizelle, 50, to confirm it was Jamal’s, whom Monique dubbed, “Pastor Holy Whore.”

While fans are calling it one of the greatest “Real Housewives” reads of all time, Pastor Bryant is shrugging off the matter, responding with a cryptic Instagram message imploring his followers to remain unbothered.

“Give no energy to anything that doesn’t add to your joy, align with your purpose or pay any of your bills!” he captioned the post of a man sitting under running water while enjoying a meal. “Be at peace!”

Pastor Bryant also took to Instagram Live to more directly address the accusations, saying Monique lashed out because she believes Gizelle spread rumors that she conceived a child with her personal trainer.

Jamal and Gizelle married in 2002, splitting in 2009 due to Jamal’s several extramarital affairs. Gizelle announced their reconciliation in the beginning of Season 5.
