The recently released Basketball Wives Season 12 episode featured the female cast members meeting before Evelyn's birthday. While everyone was having casual conversations, Brandi revealed that she had invited Jennifer.

"Y'all, I invited Jen to stop by tonight. I did invite Jennifer. Don't beat my a*s for this," said Brandi.

Listening to that, everyone was shocked. Evelyn told her that she didn't invite Jennifer to her birthday. However, Brandi said her birthday was not on that day, but the next day. When everyone asked her why she invited Jennifer, Brandi said that she wanted her to feel "included" and not "excluded."

Ming said she loved Jennifer, but she would never have invited her. But because Brandi didn't want to be rude, she invited Jennifer.

"I think it's a bit odd that two completely polarizing events are taking place. Really makes me wonder what Brandi's intentions were, but time will tell," confessed Brittany.

Later, Denise confessed that Evelyn should be "pissed" on Brandi for inviting Jennifer. She added that if it were up to her, she would have "kicked" Brandi out of the house.

After everyone learned about Brandi inviting Jennifer to Evelyn's birthday, Chantel and Brandi had a separate conversation. Soon, Ty, Evelyn, Ming, and more joined it. While discussing it, Evelyn and Brandi got in an argument about their previous conversation in the car.

Basketball Wives star Evelyn said she couldn't remember the conversation, and told Brandi:

"I might not know what I said, but I know my intention. If I'm petty, you gon' know I'm being f*cking petty."

Soon, Jackie got out of the shower and witnessed multiple arguments between the cast members.

"I take a shower and all of you are breaking up," said Jackie.

Chantel mentioned how everyone was "uncomfortable" after learning about Brandi's invitation to Jennifer. As everyone was stating their views on handling the situation, Chantel confessed that she wasn't there for a "wedding" but for a "birthday."

Seeing everyone getting into arguments about the invite, Chantel confessed to the cameras:

"And I can just tell based on some of the looks that we share in and some of the energy that they're giving off that this could probably be my tribe."

Jackie tried to solve the issue and said they needed to figure out how to move forward. But Evelyn mentioned that she couldn't recall their previous conversation from the car. Chantel said they were all "grown-ups" and asked everyone whether they couldn't "speak up" their minds.

"No. Not here. Not on her. No, y'all can't," responded Ty.

Later on, Evelyn and Chantel got into another argument after she called Chantel "sweetheart."

Further in the Basketball Wives Season 12 episode, Jennifer and Christian discussed their wedding and the guests. She mentioned Jackie, Ming, and Brandi when he asked about the guests. Listening to that, Christian asked her "why" and said that it was "a little weird."

He asked why she invited Brandi since she was "siding with Evelyn. " Jennifer confessed that Christian only wanted people who "supported" them to be invited.
