REAL Housewives of Atlanta alum Kenya Moore’s future on the show after her shocking firing has been revealed by co-star Cynthia Bailey.
Shortly after the Bravo star was ousted from RHOA following her controversial involvement in an incident with co-star Brit Eady, fans have wondered if she was done with the show for good.
Kenya, 54, was suspended indefinitely by Bravo in the middle of season 16 - which is currently still airing.
The longtime star has not returned since she was let go over an incident with newcomer Brit at a cast event that was captured by cameras.
At the event, which celebrated the grand opening of the Kenya Moore Hair Spa, Kenya displayed posters that featured sexually explicit images of her nemesis, Brit.
Upon an investigation, Bravo determined that Kenya had violated her code of conduct as a cast member and was removed from filming the remainder of the season.
The news appeared to be tough for Cynthia, 58, to process as she’s gotten close to Kenya in the 15 years they’ve filmed the show together.
Speaking at Adrienne Maloof’s It’s Up To Us Women’s Health Benefit in Beverly Hills, CA in May, Cynthia explained the void the show has felt since losing her friend.
"Losing Kenya was hard for me because she's one of the best to ever do this reality TV thing.
“She's a phenomenal Housewife and in time, I do think she will find her way back, absolutely,” Cynthia exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
While season 16 was in production during the Summer of 2024, fans were shocked to hear that Kenya was let go in the middle of filming for sharing images of her co-star, Brit, allegedly performing oral sex on a man.
Following the incident, Kenya went on the Tamron Hall Show to take accountability for her behavior: "Hindsight is always fifty, fifty.
"If I could do it all over again, I believe the photos were very distasteful, and I elevated the situation.
"I've elevated situations before, and I've taken full accountability for the things that I've done. I'm sorry, I didn't have to take it that far.
But when I felt threatened, I've never had a child in a situation like this before. So, that's why it escalated to the point where I was protecting not only myself, but my child."
After joining the show in 2010, Cynthia surprised fans when she announced she was leaving the show in 2021.
However, she returned this season as a friend of and teased that the best is yet to come with the current season.
“Season 16 continues, you guys have a LOT more to see. There's a whole new group of people the fans are still getting to know.
“I've been going hard filming season 16 of RHOA. We have the reunion coming up. It’s going to be very good,” she added.
Meanwhile, since Cynthia is no longer a full-time RHOA Housewife and is splitting her time between Atlanta and Los Angeles now, fans have begged her to join the RHOBH.
Cynthia has heard the fans’ cries of her becoming part of the California franchise, telling The U.S. Sun: "I'm very much bi-coastal.
“I spend a lot of time in LA and the ladies love me on the cast. I have a great relationship with them. I have a lot of roots here in LA, my daughter lives here now.
“But my heart and my home is always in Atlanta. I started with with the Real Housewives of Atlanta, I will die with a peach in my hand.
“Whether it's being an official friend of the show or one day, maybe I'll come back as a full-time Housewife. It's so special and important for me to stay with Atlanta.
“Never say never, but I will say, not right now."
The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion films with Bravo boss Andy Cohen next week and the drama will conclude airing later this Summer.
