The RHOA friend also dished on her 25-year-old daughter's dating life.
Cynthia Bailey can’t believe how much her “baby girl” has grown.
Nearly 15 years after her Bravo debut, the Alabama native shared a quick update on her daughter, Noelle Robinson, who was just in grade school when she first appeared on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Cynthia — who shares Noelle with her ex-partner Leon Robinson — confirmed her only child was now 25 years old and still “living her best life" in Los Angeles.
“You know, Noelle is still finding herself, her identity," Cynthia recently told The Daily Dish. "She just turned 25. She came on the show with me when she was 8 years old. I can’t believe she’s 25. Now that we can actually go to a bar and have a drink together, it’s crazy. But she’s good. She’s good.”
Cynthia Bailey teases a big announcement from Noelle: "It's coming up soon"
In 2022, Cynthia shed more light on Noelle’s long-term ambitions and interest in modeling and acting. And while Noelle’s Instagram proved she’s found success in those industries, it seems she’s still exploring other career opportunities.
“Her dad is a movie star. I’m like a reality star [and a] model,” Cynthia said. “She’s been in this life for a really long time. So, I think her initial reaction to being the daughter of myself and Mr. Leon was to go a completely different direction. So, she’s finding herself… I love her, support her. She’s a great kid. She’s smart. She has a lot going for herself.”
Cynthia didn’t provide details on Noelle’s work life but reassured fans a big career announcement was on the horizon. And it sounds like it was a mother-daughter collaboration.
“We actually have some exciting news that we’ll be sharing soon that I can’t talk about,” she said. “So, I’m excited to see, and I’m excited for you guys to see what we have up our sleeve. It’s coming up soon.”
Cynthia Bailey reveals if Noelle Robinson is dating anyone
Cynthia also dished on Noelle’s dating life.
“[Noelle] is not in a relationship right now,” she said. “I think she’s in between relationships right now. She’s living her best life.”
Noelle came out as sexually fluid in RHOA Season 12, shortly after beginning her freshman year at Howard University. The East Coast native later confirmed her relationship with Alexis Powell, whom she met just days after arriving on campus. Fast-forward to late 2020, when Noelle announced she and Alexis had called it quits after two years of dating. Noelle has since kept her romantic life relatively private, perhaps taking cues from her mom.
What does Noelle Robinson think of Cynthia Robinson's boyfriend?
Back in February, Cynthia finally went public with LePrince, a Dutch musician she began dating more than a year ago. Cynthia told The Daily Dish the romance was still going strong and even received Noelle's co-sign.
“[Noelle] likes him a lot,” Cynthia said. “I’m really happy about that because Noelle is like my lifetime partner. She has to like the other partner I choose in my life… There has to be a lot of respect between them because Noelle is not going anywhere.”
