<p>#<strong><em><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/where-they-at-now-giovonnie-samuels-steps-into-the-shade-room-talks-about-lessons-learned-earlier-on-in-her-career-working-with-former-co-stars-upcoming-projects/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WhereTheyAtNow</a></em></strong>: Bravo recently wrapped up the inaugural season of their latest show &#8220;Real Housewives of Dubai.&#8221; The show gave viewers a look at what it&#8217;s like living in the middle east, and to many people&#8217;s surprise, there were a few familiar faces that are a part of the cast, including Lesa Milan.</p>
<p>Fans of the show were able to quickly realize that Lesa was featured on the BET hit series &#8220;College Hill: South Beach,&#8221; and was excited about her transformation as she showcased the life she now lives in Dubai with her family.</p>
<p>Lesa stepped into The Shade Room and shared with us that she was a little bit anxious about returning to television years later. When asked about her first season of #RHODubai, she said,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I did &#8216;College Hill&#8217; before and I was a little bit apprehensive because I know what comes with being on a reality tv show. This was over a decade ago before there was even social media. So I was a little bit apprehensive because I know about the trolls, and I know about The Shade Room, but the overall experience was actually really good.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Now fans of &#8220;College Hill: South Beach&#8221; may remember if there was one castmate Lesa butted heads with, it was Kyle. However, she says he is the one she remains in contact with the most. She said,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Kyle has been the most supportive with me going on this journey to the &#8216;Real Housewives of Dubai.&#8217; For me it was more important to see my growth, you know I&#8217;m not the same 18-year-old college kid. I&#8217;m now 33 with a whole bunch of kids, and a husband, and a business, and I wanted people to see my growth cause I thought that was very important to showcase.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Now the official word on if there will be a second season of &#8220;Real Housewives of Dubai&#8221; has not been announced just yet. Nonetheless, we wanted to know what would Lesa like to show more of if there is a second season, and she said her relationship with her husband. &#8220;My husband&#8217;s literally my best friend and he&#8217;s so funny, he&#8217;s more Jamaican than me. We&#8217;re just such a fun couple and I think, I would like to show more of that next season.&#8221;</p>
