Season 16 of Real Housewives of Atlanta has fans concerned. Last season was snoozy, so Bravo initiated a cast shake-up. Kandi Burruss exited, along with Marlo Hampton and Sanya Richards-Ross. Then, Porsha Williams reclaimed her peach amid her divorce drama. But Kenya Moore left the show after she was suspended. Now Cynthia Bailey is weighing in on Kenya’s controversial exit.
Cynthia Bailey was “so saddened” by Kenya Moore’s exit
Kenya was suspended from RHOA after allegedly displaying sexual photos of co-star Brittany Eady during the opening of her hair spa. After being suspended, Kenya decided to twirl off the show.
“I am always here for Kenya. I am always here for her,” Cynthia told Extra. “Of course, I am so saddened and heartbroken that she had an early departure from the season … No one ever saw that coming.” When asked by the host how “intense” the drama became, Cynthia answered carefully.
“You know what, you guys just have to see how it all plays out. I can’t really speak on it, but I will say that Kenya has always been a huge part of the show,” Cynthia explained. “There’s only one twirl, there’s only one shade assassin. For me, I am always here for Kenya and the love will always be … I will always have love for Kenya.” The actress and model added, “There’s only one Kenya. Only one!”
Cynthia Bailey and Phaedra Parks are filming together again
Since Cynthia is an official friend for Season 16, she shared her thoughts about Phaedra Parks’ return. “Phaedra is great TV as well. Phaedra came back like, literally, like in the last moment of us filming,” Cynthia said. “So, that was like another surprise. Nobody saw Kenya leaving, no one saw Phaedra coming, so Sweet 16 should be called Surprise 16. It’s all over the place.”
As for Cynthia, she is pursuing her acting career, with a movie called Who’s Cheating Who on BET+. And she has a new man who resides in Amsterdam, but 50 Cynt is keeping him under wraps for now.
