Kenya Moore departs RHOA season 16 after controversial suspension

Kenya Moore has exited the Real Housewives of Atlanta following her suspension scandal.

People confirmed on Tuesday, June 25, that the cast members were informed Moore would not return to the series.

According to sources, this decision was mutually agreed upon by Moore and the show's producers.

It is further cited that the Bravolebrity is also seeking professional legal assistance "because she’s not happy with how this whole mess unfolded."

In addition, she appeared to bid farewell to her RHOA fans following her departure from the series.

"#TEAMTWIRLFOREVER You are the best fans anyone could ever ask for," the former Miss USA wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

"And I love you all so very much," she expressed. "Always and forever."

News of Moore’s sudden exit from RHOA comes after she was suspended indefinitely in the wake of allegations that she uncovered explicit pictures of her fellow cast member Brittany Eady.

The pictures were shown while Bravo cameras were rolling on Thursday, June 6, during the grand opening ceremony of her new Kenya Moore Hair Spa.

After the incident, sources offered divided claims. Some stated that Moore's actions were in response to Eady threatening her with the word "gun."

Meanwhile, others claimed, "At no time was Kenya ever threatened with a weapon, nor was there ever a weapon present during the course of production."

Following the mixed claims, an investigation was commenced, which ultimately led to Moore’s exit from the show.
