Gizelle Bryant, star of “The Real Housewives of Potomac,” recently surprised many with her gracious reaction to her ex-husband Jamal Bryant’s engagement. Jamal announced his engagement to Dr. Karri Turner during a church service, sharing his joy and gratitude on social media. Gizelle, known for her outspoken and often divisive personality on RHOP, took to Instagram to offer her congratulations, writing, “Congratulations! Very happy for you!”
This public display of support was complemented by her comments during a FOX 5 interview, where she expressed happiness for Jamal and highlighted the importance of having a First Lady at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. She noted, “Super happy for him. New Birth really needs a first lady. That’s important. And we need New Birth to be happy with Jamal because he has a lot of tuition to pay. All of my girls will be in college. So, all is well”.
Gizelle and Jamal’s relationship has been a rollercoaster. They were married from 2002 to 2009 and share three daughters. The couple seemed to attempt to rekindle their romance in 2019 for The Real Housewives Of Potomac, but ultimately parted ways again in 2021.
Gizelle’s reaction to Jamal’s engagement demonstrates that she can be gracious despite her behavior on RHOP. Her congratulatory message and kind words were a refreshing change, showing that Gizelle can handle life changes with grace and dignity.
