Gizelle Bryant Recalls Dropping Off All 3 Daughters at 3 Different Colleges in 72 Hours: 'That Was Tough'
The 'RHOP' star is a mom to daughters Grace, 20, and twins Angel and Adore, 18
Gizelle Bryant will travel to great lengths for her girls.
While appearing as a guest on the Thursday, Nov. 14 episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, the Real Housewives of Potomac star, 54, shared her experience dropping off all three of her daughters — Grace, 20, and twins Angel and Adore, 18 — at three different colleges back-to-back earlier this year.
"I have three girls that I dropped off," began the proud mom, who shares her children with her ex-husband, Jamal Bryant. "So Grace is my oldest, and she goes to Florida A&M in Tallahassee, Florida. She's a sophomore."

She continues, "And then I have twins. So I dropped them off, one in Atlanta, one in Hampton, Virginia." Angel is studying at Spelman College in Atlanta, while Adore "is going to the school the school I graduated from," Hampton University in Virginia.
"That was tough," Bryant admits of the experience. "I had to drop off three girls, three different cities, in 72 hours."
Initially, Bryant expected her twin daughters to attend the same school. As she explains, "I was thinking that the twins were going to be together. They applied to all the same schools. They got into all the schools."
"But then at the last minute they decided to split," Bryant recalls, joking, "I was like, 'What are you doing to me? You're killing me."

In July, the reality star told PEOPLE that she took a “do as I say, not as I did” approach to preparing her twin daughters for their freshman year of college — at least when it came to laundry.
“When I left for school in August, I didn’t wash my clothes until I went back home for Thanksgiving break,” Bryant recalled to PEOPLE of her college days. “When I ran out of underwear, I would just buy more. I told them, ‘Don’t do that! That’s disgusting! Don’t do what Mommy did.’”
However, Bryant knows she doesn’t have much to worry about when it comes to Angel and Adore. “They’re light years past where I was at their age,” she admitted. “So excited about their future, and planning to make sure they meet their goals. It’s an honor to see them grow.”
