[S2 Ep1]: Getting Real Tea with Darcy Windemere
Voiceover: It’s Getting Real Tea with your host Amy Lopez!
Music begins to play as production counts down in 5,4,3,2,1….
Camera pans on Amy as she is coming out on set…
Amy: *starts waving to the live audience*
The audience cheers and claps with excitement
Amy: *sits on couch* Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Season 2 of Getting Real Tea! *smiles happily* So, it’s been a minute chile since the last time that y’all saw me. I’ve been on a long vacation, taking a break from the busy life that I’ve had these last couple of months. But now I’m back, y’all and ready to give you all the tea and gossip on Twitter’s role-play shows. *grabs the mug and smiles at the camera*
The audience claps and cheers
Amy: So many shows have been releasing new episodes since the last time we all chatted. Today’s guest has travelled all the way from Windsor. Please welcome Darcy Windermere from “The Real Housewives of Windsor.”
The audience cheers and claps
Darcy: *Darcy walks out onto the stage smiling and waving at the audience* Hi, Amy! *hugs Amy*
Amy: Darcy, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other! *smiles* You look absolutely stunning. *proceeds to the couch*
Darcy: *sits down on the couch* I know! It’s so nice to see you, thank you for having me!
Amy: Sure thing, Darcy! So how have you been doing ? How’s life treating you? *smiles*
Darcy: *nods* Life has been interesting. I’d say I’m in a pretty good place. As you saw last season on Windsor, I was attending counselling to try and get over the grief and anger I had towards my deceased husband. That’s definitely helped.
Amy: That’s great to hear, Darcy! I think therapy is absolutely necessary when one is going through something, and I think it helps the individual process the situation that they are going through.
Darcy: *nods* I completely agree.
Amy: So let’s move on to something else. How would you sum up your experience from the previous season of “ The Real Housewives of Windsor”? We did see you clash with some of the women. *winks and looks at Darcy*
Darcy: *laughs* Well, yes I did! I’m the kind of woman who’s very much, what you see is what you get. Arabella… *rolls eyes* Me and that woman will never see eye-to-eye, no matter what. And to be very honest, I don’t like her. As for some of the other women… like Evelyn, I think she was just in denial over what was staring her in the face. I believe she still is to this day, although I haven’t spoken to her.
Amy: Interesting, I see… do you think that you and Arabella could maybe be cordial since you both share common friends?
Darcy: *smiles* I don’t know… there’s a lot of hurt on both sides. I think I could be cordial, but no more than that.
The audience oohs
Amy: Well, it’s better than nothing, right? *chuckles*
Darcy: *shrugs shoulders and laughs* I suppose.
Amy: So Darcy you were introduced to the group of women by Elizabeth in Windsor. Do you think that, in a way, Elizabeth used you to come to Windsor to ignite the long feud that you and Arabella had back when on “The Real Housewives of Kensington”?
Darcy: *sighs* No, I don’t think she did. Me and Arabella don’t need anyone to start an argument between us. She says one thing, I say another, and it just goes downhill from there. Elizabeth does like to feed the fire, I will admit, but in this situation, her input changes nothing.
Amy: Hmm… *sighs* well from the viewers’ perspective watching last season of Windsor, it kind of looked like Elizabeth used you to come on the show to reignite the long feud and maybe get the heat off of her. They’ve been going back and forth with each other since season one. But that’s just my opinion, Darcy. *shrugs shoulders*.
Darcy:*nods* Well, Elizabeth can give off that impression. *laughs*
Amy: I know, right! *laughs* So Season 3 is coming soon, on March 1st. Are you excited to be returning back as a housewife this season?
Darcy: *nods and smiles* I am. Even though there’s a lot of drama on the show, I do enjoy a lot of the girls. Some more than others… *winks*
Amy: Ooh, *makes a face* that looks like a Season 3 teaser for what’s to come!
The audience oohs and aahs
Darcy: *nods and laughs*
Amy: The shade of it all… *chuckles at Darcy* This season, one of the ladies will not be returning for season 3, and that’s Dr. Evelyn Chan, who has been on the show from the beginning. Were you shocked when you found out about her departure, or did you kind of have a feeling that she might not return for season 3?
A picture of Dr Evelyn Chan is shown on screen
Darcy:*shrugs shoulders and sighs* Honestly, I wasn’t surprised. She got some heat over her husband’s behaviour and I honestly think she ran. I just hope she opens her eyes and sets herself free. I wish her the best.
Dr Evelyn Chan’s departure tweet is shown on screen
Amy: Yeah, it was absolutely a shock to me personally when I saw her statement on Twitter, but sometimes, as they say, all good things must come to an end. I’d like to personally wish Dr. Evelyn Chan all the best in her future endeavours. Moving on from the group of ladies in your cast, who are you mostly friends with when the cameras aren’t rolling?
Darcy: *smiles* Oh, definitely Coco and Hattie. I love them both very dearly. We love our girls’ nights out and our little dinners at Coco’s restaurant!
Amy: What about Ms. Dixie ? Aren’t you too close enough ? *side eyes Darcy*
Darcy:*smiles* I do enjoy Dixie’s company, yes and we are close, but I spend more time with Coco and Hattie.
Amy: Okay, *smiles and flips hair* In season 2, we saw Lady Hattie’s husband, Ernest, pass away. Have you been in contact with Hattie since then ? And how is she doing ? *gets a bit teary eyed reading the question from the cue card*
Darcy:*nods* Of course. I’m in regular contact with Hattie, and we have lunch quite regularly. She’s coping, but life will certainly never be the same for her, poor thing. One thing that Hattie can rely on is that I’ll always be in her corner. *smiles*
Amy: Awe *makes face* that is so sweet of you, Darcy. I can imagine that it was a bit tough for Hattie to relive last season’s episodes as they both loved each other dearly. It’s great that she has a good support system like you, Hattie, and I’m sure that some of the other ladies too have been there for her.
Darcy: *nods* We all pulled together to support her, for sure.
Amy: I’m sure that y’all did. *nods*. Well, Ms. Darcy, is there anything that you’d like to share with the audience today that are here with us?
Darcy: *sighs* Well, all I have to say is… tune in on March 1st. *winks*
Amy: *turns to Darcy* We sure will, Darcy! Thank you so much for being here with us today.
Darcy: *smiles* Thank you for having me!
Amy: You’re welcome, Darcy. *winks*. Don’t forget to tune in tonight for the Season 3 premiere of The Real Housewives of Windsor at 7pm BST, and be sure to catch more episodes of Getting Real Tea this summer! See you very soon. *blows a kiss to the camera*
As the camera pans out of the studio, Amy and Darcy take a selfie together.
Voiceover: Tonight don’t forget to tune in to The Real Housewives of Windsor Season 3 premiere at 7pm BST! Alas, we will be back in no time with NEW EPISODES of GETTING REAL TEA in SUMMER!! Stay tuned!
