When Renee and Gabrielle are talking about Renee's ex-husband who cheats on her, Gabrielle makes the comment, "being married to a pro athlete, it must be a nightmare". This is poking fun at Eva Longoria herself who was married to NBA point guard Tony Parker. They started divorce proceedings shortly after the episode aired.
As well as Eva Longoria, Vanessa Williams (Renee) was married to a pro athlete, Rick Fox, from 1999-2004. Fox is also an actor.
