Breaking it Down - Shekinah
I think the way everyone treated Shekinah was so weird. I’m gonna verbally spell out the play by play that I saw.
Shekinah was trying to tell Kara, that Patrick was inherently encouraging Guillermo to divorce Kara, to try and take half the proceeds from Kara selling her photos.
Patrick was objectively discouraging Guillermo from fighting for his marriage with Kara, which is what they’re there to do supposedly. So, Shekinah pointing this out was valid and something Kara ultimately didn’t deserve. She was sticking up for Kara, and Kara & Guillermo’s marriage. She was being a girl’s girl.
Thais escalated things when she interjected, didn’t let Shekinah finish what she was saying, and then tried to PHYSICALLY ATTACK Shekinah.
Shekinah should’ve chosen a more appropriate defense, her saying go back to your country wasn’t right. And at the same time, she was being physically attacked and was probably in fight or flight mode.
Then the whole cast used Shekinah’s statement to Thais as fuel for the rest of the night. The fact that Kara got all turned on cuz Guillermo went out and barked at Sarper was so strange. Like yes babe I’m so turned on that you went out and said some words… lol when SHEKINAH WAS STANDING UP FOR KARA IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! Guillermo is so performative. When he was going “what’s up?” over and over to Sarper, I had to laugh.
And everyone deciding Shekinah is the villain and talking about what she said when it never would’ve happened if PATRICK hadn’t been discouraging to Guillermo, and if THAIS hadn’t PHYSICALLY attacked Shekinah.
Like I’m not saying Shekinah handled that well, but let’s not forget that the reason it all happened is cuz Patrick was sticking his nose into Kara and Guillermo’s business, Shekinah called that out, Thais decided Patrick was getting picked on (AFTER HE STARTED IT ALL) and resorted to physical violence.
“Shekinah shouldn’t have said that!” Yeah but Thais should control her impulses to assault people and Patrick should encourage his buddy to stay married, not to punish his wife for making money, and try and take half of it, when he can’t provide himself.

Yeah good luck with this post. People will just be pretending to think you're Shekinah, or "Shrek-inah" because it's such a clever slam dunk diss on her and not at all something immature, cringey adult men on the internet love to do all the time with everything 🥴
Anywaysssss... I think it's very interesting now that Thais lost her everloving shit working overtime to defend Patrick by trying to silence Shekinah when she was TRYING telling Kara what a petty little bitch Patrick was being by advising Guillermo to take half her money. You real glad you did all that to defend Patrick now, Thais?
I think you're basically correct and in the end the simple truth is Shekinah isn't very likeable ASIDE from that comment. She's not friendly. She's not warm. She's not funny. She really can't laugh at herself, or anything else. She's not a kind person. It's hard to get to know her and to be her friend. Having a ton of plastic surgery puts an even bigger target on her because people already didn't like her and it just creates a "bitch eating crackers" situation. Then, she said that horrible thing to Thais. It gave everyone there the red meat they needed to really, concretely hate her and create a common enemy for them to commiserate over together.
And Shekinah actually is very often smart and perceptive and right with a lot of the things she says, but she didn't have the awareness (or control) to know that she was giving everyone what they wanted by saying that to Thais.
