    Bravo/Charles Sykes

    An insider says of the ‘RHOA’ alum, ‘The hope is that having fan favorites like Phaedra come back will help the show rise back into the 2 million viewers-a-week arena.’

    Apr 22, 2021

    AceShowbiz – “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” may have a major cast shake-up in its upcoming season. If a new report is to be believed, the rating drops may prompt the producers to change the cast members for the next season, adding that Phaedra Parks may return to the show.
    ” ‘RHOA’ was once Bravo’s highest-rated housewives show but has lost its superiority over other shows in the franchise,” a source said to The Sun.”There’s going to be a big cast shake-up next season and some producers are mulling over asking Phaedra Parks to return.”
    The insider went on to say, “The hope is that having fan favorites like Phaedra come back will help the show rise back into the 2 million viewers-a-week arena.”
    It was reported that the premiere of “RHOA” dropped by almost half a million viewers. “Many insiders believe [NeNe Leakes] would help drive ratings, but her feud with producers seems to show no signs of letting up,” the source continued.

    Back in June 2020, Phaedra reacted to fans who wished to see her back on the popular reality TV show. “Well, keep hope alive,” Phaedra said of rejoining the franchise. However, the 46-year-old mentioned at the time that she’s “trying to find love. I’m not trying to fight love.”
    Talking about her appearance on “Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition”, Phaedra continued, “I’m in a different place right now, so that’s why you should tune into ‘Marriage Boot Camp’, so you can see me finding love and being in love versus fighting,” Parks said.
    Phaedra left “RHOA” in 2017 after spreading rumors about Kandi Burruss and her husband drugging and sexually assaulting Porsha Williams.
    Fans apparently were excited with the idea of Phaedra coming back to the show. “I stopped watching after she was kicked off. If she returns I might tune in,” one person stated in a comment. “Bring phae phae back,” one other added, with someone else echoing the sentiment, “Please bring Phaedra! The show needs some spice.”
    “lol that means kandi leaving,” one other predicted. Seemingly not gonna miss the Xscape singer, a user said, “Yes I’ll actually start watching the show again… Bye Kandi.”

    'RHOA' Fans Call for LaToya Ali's Firing Despite Her Squashing Beef With Drew Sidora

    Instagram

    The ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ co-stars apparently have squashed their beef after having a fight in the recent episode as they are seen exchanging friendly words on Twitter.

    Apr 20, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    No more bad blood. “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-stars LaToya Ali and Drew Sidora apparently have squashed their beef after the pair almost had a physical altercation in a recent episode of the Bravo reality show. They were seen exchanging friendly words on Twitter.

    “No matter what happened. This is a strong group of women,” Drew wrote on the blue bird app following the Sunday, April 18 episode. “I’m so blessed to get a chance to get to know them and bond with them. We are #BLACKGIRLMAGIC #sisterhood.”

    LaToya caught wind of the tweet and reacted by sending some love to her co-star. “We love you Queen Drew,” she replied. She later added, “Keep killing those wigs hunty yaaasss,” alongside some lovely face emojis. To that, Drew replied, “Yes! let’s just start over sis #worldpeace.”

    Despite that, fans were not entirely convinced that LaToya was sincere with her tweet. “felt like shade with the wig comment but hey,” one person said in an Instagram comment. “Latoya is unnecessarily mean girl ish,” someone else added.

    Calling for LaToya’s firing, a person wrote, “Get rid of Latoya she’s so problematic.” Echoing the sentiment, one other added, “Lol I still can do next season without Latoya,” while another comment read, “Both them need to not be on next season.”

    In the latest episode of “RHOA”, Drew and LaToya were involved in a fight while the ladies were gathering at Cynthia Bailey’s cast holiday party. For the party, Cynthia asked the ladies to participate in a White Elephant gift exchange in which each person had to spend $1,000 on their gifts.

    LaToya arrived late, prompting Drew to quip, “Oh, perfect timing! She came to get her gift.” The said gift apparently referred to a cassette tape that Drew had prepared. It featured a taped phone call between Drew’s assistant and Prophet Anthony Lott, who allegedly had a romantic relationship with LaToya even though she’s married.

    “Drew, shut up,” LaToya snapped at Drew. The latter fired back, “Something is wrong with you. You weren’t looking for God. You were looking for some d**k. You was looking for prophet d**k.” LaToya replied, “And your man looking for some new p***y, ’cause yours is dried up.” She then took the wig and threw it to Drew. Drew then stood up and jumped across Cynthia’s coffee table to attack LaToya before being stopped by security guards.

    'RHOA' Recap: Drew Sidora and LaToya Ali Almost Get Physical Over 'Prophet's D**k'

    Instagram

    In a new episode of the Bravo reality show, the ladies are gathering at Cynthia Bailey’s cast holiday party where the Canadian YouTube personality arrives late.

    Apr 19, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” returned with yet another dramatic episode. In the Sunday, April 18 outing of the Bravo reality show, the ladies were gathering at Cynthia Bailey’s cast holiday party where LaToya Ali arrived late.

    When the 34-year-old made her late entrance, Drew Sidora quipped, “Oh, perfect timing! She came to get her gift.” For the party, Cynthia asked the ladies to participate in a White Elephant gift exchange in which each person had to spend $1,000 on their gifts. Porsha Williams got a Tiffany & Co. jewelry from Cynthia, though she didn’t love it.

    That was not the worst gift because Drew basically brought a gag gift and donated money to charity. Kenya Moore apparently got the gift which was actually a furry cat carrier with a wig inside. Also among the gift was a boombox with a cassette tape.

    While Kenya wasn’t interested in listening to the tape, Porsha insisted. The said tape was actually a taped phone call between Drew’s assistant and Prophet Anthony Lott. Drew believed that LaToya had a romantic relationship even though she’s married. That enraged LaToya who snapped to Drew, “Drew, shut up.”

    Drew fired back at LaToya, calling her “disrespectful.” She went on to say, “Something is wrong with you. You weren’t looking for God. You were looking for some d**k. You was looking for prophet d**k.” Not backing down, LaToya replied, “And your man looking for some new p***y, ’cause yours is dried up.” She then took the wig and threw it to Drew.

    Offended, Drew stood up and jumped across Cynthia’s coffee table to attack LaToya. Security guards were quick enough to break up the fight before it escalated. Because of the fight, the party ended rather earlier.

    This is not the first time the cast members almost had a physical altercation with LaToya. In a previous episode, LaToya and Falynn Guobadia butted heads when the Housewives were at the latter’s house for Halloween party. Things got ugly when LaToya mentioned about Falynn having a 65-year-old husband, while actually Simon is 56 years old. She kept making such comments until at one point, Falynn was ready to go at her with a golf stick before Kandi Burruss and others stopped her.

    'RHOA': Kandi Burruss Confirms Porsha Williams Hooked Up With Male Stripper, Says Marlo Hampton

    Instagram

    Meanwhile, the Xscape singer is not too happy to be thrown in the middle of the drama as she asks Marlo not to involve her, to which Marlo replies, ‘I will [if I have to], so she better stop.’

    Apr 12, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    A new episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” was just as dramatic as before. In the April 10 episode of the Bravo reality series, the ladies were seen gathering at Kandi Burruss’ new restaurant tasting event when Marlo Hampton made a bombshell revelation regarding the infamous Strippergate.

    During the event, Marlo attempted to apologive for snapping at Porsha Williams the other day when they were at the event with Big Freedia. However, Porsha wasn’t interested to fix things with her on-and-off friend, and accused Marlo of lying about getting liposuction instead.

    According to Porsha and Shamea Morton, Marlo had the procedure just before the most recent cast trip to New Orleans, though she said otherwise. Following the argument, Marlo said to Kandi that she would spill some major tea if Porsha wasn’t careful.

    “You know how right now I could go below the belt and tell her don’t play it off. I know [you] heard [her having sex],” Marlo told Kandi, referring to the rumors that Porsha had sex with male stripper Bolo at Cynthia Bailey’s wild bachelorette party. Later, a video of Marlo and Kandi chatting in South Carolina played.

    The clip featured Marlo asking Kandi who she thought was hooking up with the stripper that night. In response to that, Kandi said, “Oh, I know who it was.” While Kandi didn’t reveal the name on camera, Marlo made it seem like Kandi named Porsha offscreen.

    “Kandi told me about the b***h over there f***ing Bolo all night, but I’m going to keep it sealed,” Marlo said in confessional. Meanwhile, Kandi asked Marlo not to involve her in the drama, to which Marlo replied, “I will [if I have to], so she better stop.”

    'RHOA': Marlo Hampton Confronted by Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams

    Instagram

    In a new episode of the Bravo show, the Housewives are having dinner with rapper/bounce artist Big Freedia when things get heated between the three ladies as they fight over the infamous Strippergate.

    Apr 5, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Things took an ugly turn between Marlo Hampton, Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams. In the Sunday, April 4 episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”, the Housewives were on their girls’ getaway in New Orleans. They were having dinner with rapper/bounce artist Big Freedia when things got heated between the three ladies.

    Kandi started it all by calling Marlo out for inserting herself into the drama between Porsha and Kenya amid their beef after Kenya accused Porsha of hooking up with a male stripper during Cynthia Bailey’s bachelorette party. Defending herself, Marlo said, “Both of y’all — Porsha, I love you to death, [Kenya] would never be able to have me cross you in no kind of way. Kenya, I’m moving baby steps with you, but I love where we’re at and it feels good.”

    Hearing that, Kenya was not thrilled as she insisted that Porsha did have sex with the stripper. She also said that everyone who let it slide wasn’t “telling the whole truth.”

    “Porsha told me it did not happen and that’s what we’re going with,” Marlo said to Kenya, who responded by calling Marlo “messy” for revealing this matter in front of Big Freedia. Marlo also shared that she actually suggested that Porsha and Kenya have a one-on-one conversation to end their beef but Porsha wasn’t a fan of the idea. “I no longer have anything else to say,” Kenya stated.

    In response to that, Marlo told Kenya and Porsha that she would let the whole thing go if both women agree to not name the other while talking with her. Both Porsha and Kenya denied the statement, arguing that they didn’t speak about the other while talking to Marlo.

    However, that wasn’t how it was according to Marlo. “Both of you have me in an uncomfortable position,” she said. “Both of you motherf***ers talked to me about each when I wasn’t there!” Offended, Porsha yelled at Marlo with profanities that prompted Marlo to storm out of the restaurant. “I’mma do you, and I’mma do you. Goodnight with y’all fake a**es. Goodnight, fake-a** b***hes. Goodnight!” Marlo shouted.

    'RHOA': Porsha Williams and Marlo Hampton Involved in Tense Moment Over Kenya Moore

    Bravo

    In the Sunday, March 28 episode of the long-running Bravo reality show, Porsha confronts her friend Marlo’s newfound friendship with co-star Kenya Moore.

    Mar 29, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Porsha Williams and Marlo Hampton had a moment in the Sunday, March 28 episode of the Bravo reality show. In the new outing, Porsha confronted Marlo’s newfound friendship with co-star Kenya Moore.

    It took place when the ladies attended a dancing class in New Orleans. “Well, since this seems like a nice, healing space, I feel like we should talk,” Porsha told Marlo after she pulled her aside following the class. “I feel like your movement has changed being a friend to me.”

    Marlo responded, “It’s been like an elephant in the room and I feel it’s different because of Kenya.” To that, Porsha replied, “This whole thing with Kenya if you want to bring it up. You had your showroom, I didn’t know when the showroom was opening. I knew that you were having it because you had told me about it.”

    Defending herself, Marlo explained to Porsha, “I didn’t invite anyone to it. She called and asked could she come.” Porsha then replied, “I would love to support my friends, but that opportunity wasn’t there. And then now you’ve been here this whole weekend, you have not called my phone, nothing.”

    That didn’t sit well with Marlo as she said to Porsha, “I am a friend to you and I feel like you don’t trust me being friends with someone who you do not f**k with. Let’s keep it one hundred. I wasn’t here for Kenya at all when y’all was doing playdates.” She referred to when Porsha and Kenya had baby playdates last year, way before the Strippergate this season.

    “Wasn’t I hating on her [then]? You was, ‘No, she’s so sweet,’ ” Marlo said. She then tried to explain why she chose to make up with Kenya earlier this season. However, Porsha insisted, “And as soon as ya’ll met up, that’s when your energy changed.” Clapping back, Marlo said, “I feel like that’s when you changed.”

    'RHOA' Star LaToya Ali Hits Back at Falynn Guobadia for Accusing Her of Faking-Sick to Skip Reunion

    Instagram

    LaToya first hints that she’s feeling unfit in an Instagram post featuring a picture of her lounging in a sofa while pouting in pajamas and a long fleece jacket, writing in the caption, ‘I’m sick.’

    Mar 26, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    The tension between LaToya Ali and “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-star Falynn Guobadia is just growing day by day. After getting into a fight that almost got physical in a recent episode of the Bravo reality show, the two got into an online spat with Falynn accusing LaToya of pretending to be sick in order to avoid filming reunion special.

    LaToya first hinted that she was feeling unfit in an Instagram post on Wednesday, March 24. She posted a picture of her lounging in a sofa while wearing pajamas and a long fleece jacket. LaToya, who completed her look with a pair of adorable tiger slippers, was seen pouting. “I’m sick,” so she wrote in the caption.

    Falynn then posted on Twitter a shady tweet that seemingly was directed at LaToya. “You can stop playing sick, girl. I won’t be there,” so Falynn wrote, alluding that they won’t face each other at the reunion.

    LaToya apparently caught wind of the shade and quickly fired back at Falynn. “Hubby kicked her out the empire and can’t afford a flight,” she mocked Falynn before challenging her to “meet me at the Reunion.”

    In a separate post, LaToya further taunted Falynn by writing, “And bring the golf club.” That was clearly a reference to their fight in the latest episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” in which Falynn grabbed a golf club and was about to go to LaToya before being held back by staff and fellow co-stars.

    LaToya Ali hit back at Falynn Guobadia on Twitter.

    In the episode, LaToya started to get on Falynn’s nerves as she started demanding that Falynn mixed her a drink instead of mixing it for herself like everyone else did. The last straw was when she gave Falynn a backhanded compliment about her house and husband. LaToya mentioned about Falynn having a 65-year-old husband, while actually Simon is 56 years old. At one point, Falynn was ready to go at LaToya with a golf stick before Kandi Burruss and others stopped her.

    Kenya Moore 'Genuinely Sorry' for Native American Costume, Bravo Hopes It to Be Teachable Moment

    Instagram

    ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ star is facing backlash for ‘cultural appropriation’ after dressing up as a ‘warrior princess’ to a costume party in the March 21 episode of the hit reality show.

    Mar 24, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Kenya Moore has expressed remorse for her offensive Halloween costume. Having come under fire for wearing a Native American headdress and costume in an episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”, the reality TV star said she was “genuinely sorry,” leading Bravo to share hope it could serve as a teachable moment.

    The 50-year-old issued her apologetic statement via Twitter on Tuesday, March 23. “I want to sincerely apologize for inappropriately wearing the Native American headdress as a costume,” she said. “I now realize that this was both disrespectful and insensitive and would never have done it if I had that knowledge and understanding beforehand. I regret it. When you know better, you do better. I am genuinely sorry.”

    Kenya Moore apologized for her offensive Halloween costume.

    Also responding to the cultural appropriation controversy was the series’ network. “Bravo aims to have the highest standards of respect and inclusivity and we recognize that the recent episode of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’, in which a cast member wears a Native American costume, did not uphold those values,” it said in a statement to the press.

    “We had hoped it would provide a teachable moment, however in retrospect it is clear that the network did not address this properly given the gravity of the situation,” the network continued in its message. “We apologize to both the Native American community and our audience as a whole.”

    Kenya faced backlash for “cultural appropriation” after dressing up as a “warrior princess” to a costume party in the Sunday, March 21 episode of “RHOA”. Some of her co-stars also took issue with her wardrobe choice. One in particular was Drew Sidora who stated in a confessional, “Kenya’s Native American costume is super problematic but I ain’t trying to ruffle no feathers for this girls’ trip.”

    Drew went on, “It feels like I’m always the only one that sees the issues with Kenya Moore’s decisions.” Porsha Williams chimed in by stating, “Kenya is a Native American warrior. I thought we weren’t doing that no more. Like, I knew that this girl was crazy, but add lame to the list, add whack to the list.”

    On Monday, March 22, a nonprofit initiative named IllumiNative condemned Kenya’s costume. “We are deeply disturbed by last night’s episode of #RHOA in which @thekenyamoore wore a Native American ‘warrior princess’ costume,” the organization stated on Twitter and Instagram. “Costumes that mock Native peoples, defame our traditions and cultures, and perpetuate negative stereotypes are racist.”

    ” ‘Playing Indian’ is a form of mascotry that is not just offensive, it is part of a long history of how Native peoples have been dehumanized,” the nonprofit further argued. “It is important that @bravotv, @comcast, @nbcuniversal, @bravoandy and @thekenyamoore apologize for the harm they have caused Native peoples and commit to ensuring offensive displays like this never happen again. Native people are not a costume.”
