Fans are reacting to Shamea Morton’s stunning $9 million mansion and wealth, as the Real Housewives of Atlanta newbie revealed what her husband Gerald Mwangi does for a living. The couple tied the knot in 2014, and they now share two daughters.
The upcoming season marks a new chapter for RHOA after the shocking exits of every cast member from last season except Drew Sidora. Along with other newbies like Shamea, the new cast will include former co-stars Phaedra Parks and Porsha Williams.
In a preview for the upcoming season premiere, Shamea, who reveals her home is worth $9 million, opened up her stunning mansion for what appeared to be her birthday party. The house featured high ceilings, a shoe closet, a massive chandelier, and elaborate decorations.
At the event, dozens of guests were dressed all in white except Shamea, whose husband unveiled her surprise gift: a $430,000 Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
“Where does Gerald’s money come from?” a producer asked Shamea in a confessional, via @thejasminebrand on Instagram.
“He’s an African king,” she joked. “That is totally not true. No, he does HVAC. Some of the airports that you walk through, my husband has built, manufactured and installed the HVAC, so there you have it.”
Fans shared their reactions in the comments.
“Shamea comes off so humble and continued to work while married. I gotta respect her,” wrote one viewer.
“I love that he built his empire from a blue collar career!” said another.
“Shamea is living the life Porsha tried to live 🥴,” shared a third.
“Shamea is definitely that girl that lives in luxury and didn’t have to brag about it!!! ‘She is the rich housewife of Atlanta!”’ exclaimed a fourth.
“So this is who Porsha was trying to emulate? She wanted to be on Shamea’s level in life! The pieces are coming together,” said a fifth.
“Sooooo, they didn’t know about Shamea lifestyle before the show? Or what her husband did for a living? @shameamorton watch them Sis, keep them away from your happy life,” wrote a sixth.
The season 16 premiere of The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sunday, March 9, on Bravo.
