The Traitors season three ended with explosive drama, and the reunion episode delivered everything fans hoped for and more, especially when it came to the clash between Bob The Drag Queen and Real Housewives star Dorinda Medley. And now, Bob The Drag Queen is speaking when it comes to whether or not she will be watching Dorinda’s upcoming Bravo spinoff.
When asked about rewatching the finale of The Traitors, Bob candidly shared their thoughts. “I wish Danielle had won. I can’t believe Brittany did that,” Bob said. Despite the disappointment, Bob found the reunion episode to be a fun experience, adding, “I feel like I showed myself, I looked beautiful, I felt beautiful, and I had a good time. Stunning.”
Dorinda, an early vote out for the series, went home early and made quite the spectacle during the series reunion with the drag queen. When asked at the Queerties if Bob would be tuning in to the Bravo star’s recently announced spin off series after the on air dispute, the drag queen remained honest: “I don’t really watch reality TV shows unless they have competition in them, like Real Housewives or shows with a prize. So, I probably won’t watch it, to be honest.”
Bob’s directness didn’t stop there. Despite not being desperate to talk to the individual in question after the reunion, Bob said, “If she called, I’d answer for sure,” hinting that they were open to a conversation if the situation arose.

The Dramatic Reunion Showdown
The tension was palpable during the reunion as Bob faced off with Dorinda Medley and fellow Real Housewives star Chanel Ayan. What started as a casual exchange quickly turned into a battle of words. Ayan, dressed in a fabulous look, tried to shade Bob as she walked into the room, only for Bob to respond effortlessly with, “a close second.” However, the real drama kicked off when Dorinda attempted to guilt Bob for simply playing the game.
“I was very sad that I got murdered, but the whole thing [you said after] that I was mad, I can promise you I didn’t think about it,” Dorinda expressed, adding that she had even called reunion host Andy Cohen after filming to cry. “I liked you and I really wanted to get to know you. So this negativity after the fact was really unfortunate,” she said, attempting to shame Bob for playing the game unapologetically.
Bob’s response was sharp and unapologetic. “I don’t know any of these people. You’re the only one taking that personally,” Bob said, calling out Dorinda’s attempt to control the narrative. The queen, who has been known for her quick wit, didn’t let Dorinda continue to talk over her. “Are you capable of not talking while I am talking?” Bob asked, prompting Cohen to jump in with a hilarious remark: “She doesn’t like to be on pause,” referencing Medley’s Real Housewives tenure when she was famously “put on pause.”
Bob then delivered a savage blow, saying, “I assure you Dorinda — and this is no shade to anyone here — I have never, ever had to try to make someone else diminish so that I could have stage time or screen time. No shade, I have been a star on every TV show I’ve ever been on.” This remark further solidified Bob’s place at the center of the reunion drama.
Bob The Drag Queen’s Relatable and Unapologetic Confidence
One of the key elements that made Bob’s performance so captivating throughout The Traitors and the reunion was her genuine confidence and unapologetic queerness. In a world where queer visibility is still constantly being threatened, Bob’s refusal to shrink for anyone — not even a Real Housewives legend like Dorinda Medley — was a powerful statement.
In an interview before the season aired, Bob admitted she didn’t know much about the cast when she first arrived on set. “The truth is, I didn’t know who any of them were! I did not know a single one of those people, and I’m not being shady. That’s just me being honest!” she said. Bob’s honesty was refreshing, and it made for one of the most entertaining seasons of The Traitors.
At the reunion, Bob didn’t just stand her ground — she claimed her space. Bob’s message was clear: she wouldn’t allow anyone, not even Medley or Ayan, to overshadow her. When Ayan accused Bob of being jealous, Bob quickly shut it down with her signature humor. “When your comedy special comes out, I’ll be the first one to watch it. I already have two out right now,” she quipped, leaving Ayan speechless.
