Atlanta’s Opera nightclub served as the setting for the highly anticipated season two reunion of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta.’ But unlike last year’s drama-filled reunion, in which Lisa Wu Hartwell threatened to throw Kim Zolciak over the couch, the Oct. 29 special was relatively fireworks free.

Bravo’s Andy Cohen wasn’t able to muster a lot of details from the ladies, leaving fans disappointed by the most well-known and talked group in the ‘Housewives’ franchise.

Instead of rocking her own clothing line, She by Sheree, Sheree Whitfield wore a Dolce and Gabbana frock. One viewer asked Whitfield whether she was a lesbian, to which Whitfield replied, “Get a life. I am okay with who I am, and I like men. Sorry, Kate.” She denied the rumors that she had a boob job, adding, “No, good bra.”

Nene Leakes disclosed that she still has not found her biological father or taken a paternity test with the man she believes is her father because he is an alcoholic. The ‘Never Make the Same Mistake Twice’ author said she and Zolciak got into a fight because of rumors started by ‘Housewives’ stars from other counties.

Cohen probed about the Leakes-Zolciak choking incident, but Zolciak refused to answer his question, adding, “And so what? We [need to] move on to something else. Like I said, I’m going to say it again, we’ve moved passed it. We’ve had a conversation. I know she wishes me to be successful, I wish her the same f***ing thing.”

Cohen joked, “Am I alone in not buying this?”

He refused to let the ‘Tardy for the Party’ singer keep him out of the loop about her relationship with a married man. Although Zolciak initially denied being with her mystery boyfriend, Big Poppa, who is reportedly Atlanta real estate mogul Lee Najjar, Cohen spilled the beans on that lie. Apparently, Big Poppa, who proposed to the mother of two during the taping of season two of ‘Housewives,’ turned up during a commercial break to give Zolciak a kiss.

“When I got the ring, I was led to believe that the divorce was over. I made a mistake,” she said.

Of his wife, who is also is named Kimberly, Zolciak said, “She’s fully aware. He is with me five or six days a week, [but] about six weeks ago, I was like ‘I’m not going to do this anymore and here I am.”

She charged, “I wish you would get the hell off of Big Poppa.”

“How do you support yourself?” Cohen inquired.

“My song. I worked as a nurse and waited table at Bahama Breeze. I saved my money and have been very smart,” she replied.

Lisa Wu Hartwell, who wore an outfit from her Closet Freak line, said she isn’t broke but that she and her husband, Ed Hartwell, downsized instead of living beyond their means. She is still working on having a baby.

Grammy-Award winning singer-songwriter Kandi Burruss, the newest member of the bunch, was very emotional as she discussed the death of her ex-fiance, Ashley “A.J.” Jewell. She said they called off their engagement in June, shortly after taping the series because her mother and A.J. had a blowout fight.

“When I look back at it, I see a lot of the things that she had seen, but I wish that she went about it a different way,” Burruss said, adding that she was the first person to arrive at the hospital when she got the news that he died.

Part two of the reunion special of ‘Housewives’ will feature an appearance from Dwight Eubanks, whom many call the sixth housewife. Zolciak will also perform her single ‘Tardy for the Party.’

Part Two of the Reunion airs Nov. 5 at 10 p.m. EST on Bravo.
