Kenya Moore is reportedly not returning to “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” following claims that she displayed “revenge porn.”
Moore’s exit was confirmed to Entertainment Tonight and People Tuesday. It’s unclear whether the exit was a mutual decision by Bravo and the business mogul, if she decided to leave or if she was fired. Multiple outlets have cited conflicting reports on the nature of the departure.
The 1993 Miss USA’s time on “RHOA” is coming to an end after she was suspended indefinitely from filming by Bravo after an altercation with new cast member Brittany “Brit” Eady, a source familiar with the situation but not authorized to speak publicly told USA TODAY on June 15. The Atlanta iteration of the network’s popular franchise recently reshuffled its cast with newbies and former show stars after fan criticism.
USA TODAY has reached out to reps for Bravo and Moore.
Moore seemingly addressed her departure on X Tuesday, writing, “#TEAMTWIRLFOREVER You are the best fans anyone could ever ask for. and I love you all so very much. Always and forever 💜.”
Bravo, which is currently filming its 16th season of the show, announced last month that returning cast members Moore, Porsha Williams, Shamea Morton Mwangi and Drew Sidora would join newbies Eady, Angela Oakley and Kelli Ferrell as full-time peach holders alongside former “RHOA” personality Cynthia Bailey as an official friend of the group.
According to People and Entertainment Tonight, Moore was suspended for unveiling photos depicting Eady, an insurance mogul, allegedly participating in a sex act during the recent grand opening of Kenya Moore Hair Spa in Atlanta.
In an X post earlier this month, Moore addressed the revenge claims surrounding her and Eady.
“I would never engage in revenge porn, I have never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail,” Moore said on the platform on June 8, adding a fire emoji. “I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news #sweet16”
