Episode 5 takes the women out on the water, but the vibes are anything but smooth sailing. In this week’s recap, I’m diving into the simmering tensions that follow the group onto the schooner — from Kelsey and Rosie’s still‑brewing Instagram drama to Jo‑Ellen arriving with yet another round of “receipts” about Brian’s alleged affair.  The episode ends with Jo‑Ellen confronting Rulla and Brian at the Newport polo match, dropping fresh Instagram evidence that Brian spent the morning holding hands with the alleged mistress — a reveal that leaves the entire group stunned and the affair rumors impossible to ignore.
