Glass-smashing seems to be a trend among the newest cast members of the "Housewives" shows, this time with Claudia Jordan doing the smashing on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

Arguments and disagreements continue to erupt when the Atlanta ladies go on a group vacation to Manila, Philippines. A group dinner that is supposed to be a time of bonding results in all sides of the table yelling, despite Jordan's best intentions of being "peacemaker" at the head of the table. Things heat up when Porsha Williams gets upset about being "shushed" at the table. That's when Jordan grabs a glass and, while tapping a spoon against it to bring the group to order, smashes the glass.

Glass-smashing appears to be a trend on reality shows. On "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," there was a glass-smashing issue when freshman cast member Lisa Rinna hurled a glass at Kim Richards. The two have been fighting all season about Rinna allegedly talking about Richards' sobriety with different members of the cast behind Richards' back.

Meanwhile, back in the Philippines on RHOA, Jordan and Phaedra have a heart-to-heart over a range of subjects, but mainly over divorce. Parks is in the process of divorcing husband Apollo Nida, who is incarcerated and is expected to spend eight years behind bars on fraud charges.

"I see this as a major trial but I've got to surround myself with people who have my back," Parks tells Jordan in a preview clip. She declines to talk too much about her personal life, she says, because she doesn't want to jeopardize her sons' well-being. Parks has two young boys with Nida.

"It's tough," Parks tells Jordan. "My older son is very much traumatized... It's just unfair that my innocent children will have the whole world looking at them sideways because of something that their father did."

But while Jordan is trying her best to carry out the role of  "peacemaker," she's still encountering  conflict with Williams.  

"Porsha, close the mouth, close that wide mouth and simmer down," Jordan says in preview clips.  

Recently, Jordan said Porsha should be fired because while Williams may be  "cute and glamorous," she's boring.  She also said Porsha merely "co-signs" whatever fellow cast member NeNe Leakes says, as reported in RealityTea. 

Jordan has even flirted with Williams' ex-husband Kordell Stewart, snapping selfies with the NFL star at a recent RHOA party that Williams did not attend. Williams says she was "blind-sided" by the divorce from Stewart, TMZ reported. 

Leakes, who walked out on the recent counseling session she called together with the ladies, declined to go on the trip to the Philippines, supposedly in favor of work.
