The former Miss USA left the show amid controversy for allegedly unveiling explicit pictures of new cast member Brittany Eady. There are conflicting reports however about whether she was fired or left of her own volition.
Several housewives contested Kenya’s departure including Drew Sidora who recently told Blavity that she believes Kenya deserves a second chance.
“I am not happy about Kenya’s exit,” said Sidora. “I think it does impact our show. She brings a lot to our show. She’s legendary. She has a personality that shakes the table.”
She continued,
“And so I feel like Kenya does need to come back. I hope that she does. I hope they figure it out. I don’t know what’s going to happen. I’m going to be watching it with y’all and trying to figure it out also. So they haven’t really told us a lot. We’re just kind of waiting.”
With Kenya out and Phaedra in, the remaining ladies of #RHOA are Phaedra’s “Frick” Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, Shamea Morton, Kelli Ferrell, Brittany Eady and Angela Oakley.
