In the wake of her indefinite suspension from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kenya Moore is not coming back for Season 16.
Citing sources with direct knowledge, TMZ reports that Moore was not fired, but rather that “both sides agreed” for her to take a break from the upcoming season, with the potential for her to come back at a later time. The outlet also notes that she may be pursuing legal options.
Meanwhile, a source claimed to Deadline that the possibility of Moore returning to RHOA has not been brought up.
Decider has reached out to Moore’s publicist and reps for RHOA for confirmation and comment.
The scandal inciting her suspension reportedly occurred on June 6 at the grand opening of her Kenya Moore Hair Spa, where attendees were allegedly met with posters of new RHOA cast member Brittany Eady performing oral sex, per Page Six. Production on Season 16 was reportedly taking place at the function, but Eady was not present.
Moore has since denied the accusations, claiming on X that she “would never engage in revenge porn” and that she has “never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail.
“I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news #sweet16,” she added.
After news broke of her departure, Moore took to X on Tuesday (June 25) with the following message for fans: “#TEAMTWIRLFOREVER You are the best fans anyone could ever ask for. and I love you all so very much. Always and forever.”
Moore’s RHOA tenure began in Season 5, and she has since starred in ten seasons of the show. As of now, the Season 16 cast features Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, and Shamea Morton Mwangi, as well as new members Eady, Kelli Ferrell and Angela Oakley. Cynthia Bailey is also back as a friend of the show. Kandi Burruss, Marlo Hampton and Sanya Richards-Ross are not returning.
