'Empire' Season 2: Fans Will Be Shocked To Learn Who Pushed Rhonda [VIDEO]
Fans are less than a week away of getting their Empire fix as the series is set to return for the rest of season two on Fox Wednesday. While they wait, actress Kaitlyn Doubleday, who plays Andre Lyon’s wife, Rhonda, has offered up a few spoilers of what we can expect.
When we left Rhonda, she had just been pushed down the stairs by a mysterious person. While viewers are unclear of who pushed her, it doesn’t take long for Doubleday to figure out who it was.
“She realizes who pushed her and…she gets to confront [him/her] in a very dynamic, scary, insane, crazy way,” she told TV Line earlier this month. But it won’t be happening in the beginning of season 2B. “I think the audience [will be] waiting for that confrontation for all eight episodes.”
Still, fans can’t be convinced that it was Anika Calhoun who did the damage. She might have had a motive considering she felt a way when Rhonda revealed she is pregnant with who could be the new heir of the family business. What they don’t know is that Anika is also pregnant with Hakeem’s child.
Still, Doubleday added, “It’s weird because it started out as a certain person for sure. Then it changed for a bunch of episodes. There were a good five episodes we shot that I didn’t know who pushed me. Then they [settled] on somebody [and] that’s when she finally realizes, ‘OK, it was this person.’”
She also finds an unlikely ally in Camille, who is working with Hakeem to help him be the leader of the Empire company.
“There are some strange, weird alliances that happen that are unexpected in the next part of the season that involve Rhonda.”
Empire returns from hiatus Wednesday at 9/8c on Fox.
