Former “Real Housewives of Potomac” star Monique Samuels told fans that her cousin was killed last week.
Samuels, who left the show after Season 5 aired last year, wrote an emotional Instagram post detailing her pain and outrage.
“This hurts so much 💔💔💔💔 Can barely sleep… unbelievable. Please say a prayer for my fam 🙏🏽 My cousin was killed last night,” she wrote.
“Whoever did this- I hope you rot in the deepest, darkest pit in hell.”
The 37-year-old described her cousin, whose name she did not reveal, as “one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.”
“He’s always smiling and takes care of everyone,” she wrote alongside a photo of them. “He’s a great dad to his son and minds his business.”
Samuels, who exited Bravo’s “RHOP” after a dramatic season including a physical fight with co-star Candice Dillard, received support from fans and fellow “Housewives” after telling the public about her loss.
“Sending prayers your way❤️,” commented “RHOP” star Karen Huger.
“Real Housewives of Dallas” star D’Andra Simmons wrote, “I’m sending prayers your way. 🙏❤️.”
Samuels also asked fans for prayers and added in her post, “We live in an evil world where life is not valued anymore and it’s sad.”
