Kendal has his doubts about Erica
According to USA Network's official site, there already appears to be a few cracks in the relationship between Los Angeles-based lovebirds Erica Washington and Kendal Kirkland. Ruh-roh.
Although their two and a half year relationship seems pretty solid at first glance, Kendal has his doubts — particularly when it comes to Erica's drive and ambition. As a self-professed successful business owner, Kendal has misgivings that his girlfriend Erica, who works as a personal assistant, won't fit into the future goals he has for himself. YIKES.
Meanwhile, it appears Erica has zero doubts about her relationship with Kendal. She does, however, admit to feeling "underappreciated" at times, according to the couple's cast bio. Although some might consider going on the show as the nail in the coffin of an already doomed relationship, Erica thinks the show will end up bringing them closer together. Famous last words, eh?!
Good luck to Erica and Kendal! (Sounds like they might need it.)
