Shereé Whitfield Says Former ‘RHOA’ Co-Star Kim Zolciak Is Taking Divorce From Husband Kroy Biermann ‘Really Hard’

‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ alumni Kim Zolciak needs all of the love and support that she can possibly get right now.

According to Kim Zolciak’s Housewife friend, Shereé Whitfield, she’s currently in shambles over her recent split from her longtime husband, Kroy Biermann.

During a sit-down on Andy Cohen’s ‘Watch What Happens Live,’ when asked about Kim Zolciak’s viral breakup from Kroy Biermann, Shereé Whitfield said,

“I am in touch with [Kim]. I was shocked [about the divorce].”

She added:

“I thought her and Kroy was going to be forever! [I’m] really sad for them.”

Shereé Whitfield continued by letting us in on how Zolciak had been holding up (mentally and emotionally) since her sudden departure from Kroy Biermann.

Whitfield briefly expressed,

“She’s not doing well. No, she’s taking it really bad, really hard.”

While the She By Shereé owner stood firm in the fact that Zolciak is having a difficult time handling the tumultuous divorce, she didn’t share any details about why the once-lovebirds decided to call it quits.

Responding to Andy Cohen’s question about what caused the end of Zolciak and the ex-NFL player’s 11-year marriage, Whitfield uncomfortably concluded,

“I don’t know, I don’t know.”

As previously reported, Zolciak and her partner’s estranged relationship has (seemingly) gotten worse since the news of their divorce.

Just a week ago, Biermann (allegedly) called the police on Zolciak (who he’s still living under the same roof with) following a verbal altercation that ensued between the two.

According to documents obtained by RadarOnline, the dispute took place after the ‘Don’t Be Tardy’ star refused to leave the master bathroom while Biermann showered. However, Zolciak refuted that claim by accusing her soon-to-be former husband of “shouting at her” and trying to kick her off the premises.

Two days later, authorities were called again by Zolciak. She claimed Biermann locked away some of her assets in the home’s basement safe.

At this time, they’re said to be in court battling over custody and child/spousal support. We wouldn’t be shocked if Zolciak is preparing to document her personal-life drama on another season of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta.‘

A few days ago, the 45-year-old reality phenomenon teased an ‘RHOA’ resurgence while posing for a photo with the show’s OG castmates, Whitfield, Lisa Wu, and DeShawn Snow.

“So much is going on in the world, let’s just try to show each other a little more love.”

The 54-year-old laughs and continues:

“And I really mean that from the bottom of my heart. It’s a lot going on in the world. I’m already out here “husband stealing” And it’s just too much and ain’t nobody out here stealing husbands. Are they?”

NeNe adds:

“I would never. It’s a lot of single people out here. I saw a lot of single people in the building last night. Nobody wanna steal nobody else’s problems, okay?”

Adultery is a misdemeanor under North Carolina criminal law, where the suit has been filed. Malomine Tehmeh-Sioh is seeking around $100,000 in damages.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta alums’ husband, Gregg Leakes, 66,  died of colon cancer in September of 2021. About three months later NeNe and her boyfriend Nyonisela Sioh were spotted together and have been in public since then.

‘RHOA’ Star Drew Sidora Says She’s “Working On Things” With Husband Ralph Pittman + Thanks Kandi Burruss For Helping “Get To The Bottom” Of Husbands Suspected Cheating Scandal

Actress Drew Sidora is opening up about her marriage struggles.

The reality star made her sophomore appearance on this season of Real Housewives Of Atlanta, shrouded in marriage scandal. On the season 14 premiere, Drew Sidora, 37, revealed that she found suspicious text exchanges in her husband, Ralph Pittman’s phone. However, The Game actress shared in a recent interview that she’s moving forward with her husband after they both committed to marriage counseling. Additionally, Drew thanked her fellow RHOA castmates Sanya Richards-Ross and Kandi Burruss for helping her through the ordeal.

Kandi Burruss

Especially Kandi Burruss, who the actress says relentlessly asked Ralph Pittman questions that needed to be answered.

According to the Step Up star, Ralph Pittman was offered a massage by an new female assistant of his. Subsequently, Drew says she packed up her children, two of whom she shares with Ralph, and returned home to Chicago. During the interview she stated:

“I thought we were in a better place. Then, last summer, there were some things that happened….It was a whole thing of trying to get to the bottom of it and I’m still trying to [figure out], like, ‘OK, is it resolved? Are we good now? Is she gone forever?’ I don’t know, because I don’t know this woman.”

Drew Sidora, Ralph Pittman

Drew revealed that she and her husband have committed to marriage counseling which has worked in their favor thus far. She was also sure to acknowledge her new castmates for their role in helping her move past the painful moment. On the RHOA episode, Drew shares the texts she found with fellow newcomer and Olympic gold medalist Sanya Richards-Ross, as well as RHOA vet Kandi Burruss. Speaking on the moment Drew stated:

“Talking to Kandi and Sanya, I felt in a safe place at that time because they’re wives and I felt like they could relate and call me out if I’m tripping. But they [agreed with] how I was feeling and what was going on.”

Then continued:

“I was just happy that they stepped up for me, that they stood their ground, because they feel like he needs to hear that this is not cool.”

Doubling down on Kandi’s contribution, Drew says that she’s thankful the media mogul interrogated her husband as she did. She stated:

“Kandi held no punches!” 

Despite, Kandi’s aggressive attempt to get Ralph to reveal his follow up message was to no avail. However, Drew confirms viewers will be able to watch the drama unfold on this season of RHOA stating:

“I feel like this season, people are going to see the layers of Ralph…At the end of the day, he’s a good dude. He’s a great father, he’s very giving, he’s very loving, he’s very vulnerable — at times — and that’s what I love about him.”

Ralph Pittman, Drew Sidora & Family

Additionally, she stated:

“I didn’t want it to be on this season, but it is just where we were in our life at that point.”

RHOA’s Porsha William’s Speaks Out About Spin-Off Brawl: Physical Violence Is Never Okay, Especially When A Man Is Causing Physical Harm To Women

Porsha Williams addresses the fiery family brawl that has now been aired in its entirety.

Ex-Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams released a statement about the explosive altercation that occurred on her spin-off, Porsha’s Family Matters. In a now-deleted Instagram post, she wrote:

“There is a lot that viewers didn’t get to see tonight and I wish we had more cameras to capture that, which I understand is nobody’s fault,”

She continued:

“I’ve learned in the past that physical violence is never okay, especially when a man is causing physical harm to women. That is something we are too desensitized to as a society.”

A post shared by the Jasmine BRAND (@thejasminebrand)

The author mentioned at the time that she and her family initially decided against addressing the unseen footage. According to her statement, they kept quiet “to protect Dennis, his business, and therefore [their] own daughter.” Porsha now regrets their decision. She went on:

“I take accountability for reacting strongly to what I was seeing and hearing. While I was not physical with Ms. Gina, I regret arguing with an elder.”

She concluded:

“We’re six months removed from this incident and I’m looking forward, not backwards.”

Episode 6 of the series premiered on Bravo last night (Jan. 9). The episode saw members of Porsha and her ex-fiancé Dennis McKinley’s family in a physical altercation. Objects were tosses, jabs were thrown, and even the production crew got mixed up in the giant wad of chaos.

Cynthia Bailey’s Husband Mike Hill Says He Wants A Black Male Version of ‘Living Single,’ Offers To Write The Series

Cynthia Bailey’s husband shed light on an underrepresented group in television and received mixed reviews.

Ex-Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey’s husband, Mike Hill, sparked a Twitter debate when he suggested that black men don’t receive the same attention as black women on the small screen. He asked his followers if a successful black male version of classic sitcoms like Living Single or Girlfriends has ever made it to television:

“We’ve had Living Single, Girlfriends and Insecure…shows about positive black women & their relationships with each other. Has there ever been a good, successful tv show about black men like this? (One that lasted at least 4 seasons?).”

Mike–who’s a host of the Black News Channel Network show Start Your Day With Sharon and Mike–continued to press the matter, demanding answers as to why such a show has never seen the light of day. In his follow-up tweet, he mentioned the new Bounce TV dramedy Johnson, which stars comedian D.L. Hughley and former pro-baller Thomas Jones. The show follows a group of lifelong best friends who share life experiences. Mike wrote:

“Now that I think more about it, and I read some of your responses, this is problematic for me. Now I need to know “why” there hasn’t been one. I do like where that show Johnson is going.”

When followers pointed out Donald Glover’s Fox series Atlanta, a show that chronicles the lives of men navigating the world of southern rap, Mike responded:

“I think Atlanta is brilliant but it’s still not displaying an ensemble of college educated, positive brothers navigating life together & their relationships.”

He continued:

“It it that Hollywood won’t green light these types of shows or will we actually support it?”

He added:

“Once again, this ain’t a knock on any of the black women shows. I love & support them all. This ain’t why them & not us…it’s why not both?? I’m the last person to divide. Don’t you do it.”

Mike’s followers discussed whether shows like the one he described already existed, what his tweet meant for black women in television, and their interpretation of the tweet. One user stated:

“But yall had all the movies Best Man 1-20, The Wood, Why Did I Get Married?, Brothers, The Inkwell, even all the hood movies centered Black Men during that same time you’re referring to. What wasn’t happening in movies for Black Women they took it to TV.”

Another wrote:

“There was one called ‘Between Brothers.’ It starred Kadeem Hardison, Dondre Whitfield, Tommy Davidson, and Kelly Perine. It was pretty good. I too wish that it lasted longer.”

“The shows are being made – Atlanta, Ballers, Rel, Bruh, Grand Crew, Survivors Remorse, Southside, Noah’s Arc, Love Life S2… The problem is Black men don’t watch them lol If BM aren’t spearheading viewership of these shows, you’ll never get a “season 5” Ask where the demand is.”

“You want a show exhibiting complex, multi-dimensional, vulnerable Black men? Is there a market for that? Would Black men watch a show that may hold a mirror to the shadow side of their personalities?”

“Is ‘positive’ code for rich these days? ‘Professional’ means rich. ‘Successful’ means rich. Even ‘good’ is code for rich. Keeps the flat stereotyping capitalist narrative going and ignores reality, diversity, depth and truth. Good. Wall Street thanks you.”

“This is a fascinating question because so many men prioritize their roles as leaders over their friendships so this kind of show wouldn’t pass a focus group.”

“Your unconscious bias is showing with the ‘We’ and ‘Them’. Just say you prefer seeing shows with mainly Black casts centered around Black men and go write these shows you like. ‘Them’ Black women did and WE will support you too. Next time Google and ask $0.50 not Twitter.”

Some of his followers even proposed the idea of Mike writing the show himself. Mike hinted at that being his intent all along:

“From the comments and trying to reach into the back of mind (I got nothing along the lines of what your describing). Why don’t you get in the lab and create something like this?”

“The tweet was actually for research purposes.”

“Well create a show Mike.”

“I think I will.”

Mike Hill is a sports journalist. He married Cynthia Bailey in 2020. Neither will appear in the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

RHOA’s Kenya Moore & Marlo Hampton Unfollow Each Other On Social Media

It looks like The Real Housewives of Atlanta frenemies Marlo Hampton and Kenya Moore might be at odds again.

Fans of The Real Housewives are familiar with the roller coaster ride that is Marlo Hampton and Keyna Moore’s relationship. Earlier this year, Marlo spoke with The Jasmine Brand about their ongoing feud and why she decided to end it. At the time, Marlo She stated:

“It’s just that it’s so much going on in the world. Black Lives Matter, a pandemic. We have argued so much. How much more can we argue? Can we at least respect each other enough as a black sister? Just, ‘hey girl, I respect you.'”

Not even a year after that interview took place, the two have unfollowed each other on Instagram for unknown reasons.

Just a couple of weeks ago (Nov. 16), Kenya exclusively told The Jasmine Brand that they were content with one another. She said:

“We’re in a good place, you know, she doesn’t know how to return phone calls! But yeah, we’re in a good place. Marlo is the type of person that when she is in a relationship and a friendship with you she definitely is for you.”

She continued:

“She knew that I didn’t really start that drama with her but I understood why her feelings were hurt also. And I had to acknowledge that.”

Perhaps Kenya jokingly mentioning that Marlo isn’t the best communicator was a hint of the tension that was re-heating between them. In season 9, their friendship withered due to Kenya not inviting Marlo to her birthday or housewarming parties. They had an explosive argument in episode 13, which saw Marlo taking low jabs at Kenya when the cast was trying to hold a redeeming campout.

Marlo first appeared on The Real Housewives of Atlanta during season 4 as NeNe Leakes’ friend. This upcoming season will be her first as an official main cast member. Kenya has been a part of the main cast since season 5. They are currently filming season 14.

Porsha Williams Says She & Simon Guobadia Don’t Have A Wedding Date, Reacts To His Family Having Multiple Wives

Former The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams shared some interesting details about her engagement to Simon Guobadia.

Ex-housewife Porsha Williams sat down with talk show host Tamron Hall to discuss what’s next after turning in her peach. She has a new memoir coming as well as a Real Housewives spin-off. Although Porsha is engaged to Simon Guobadia, she says that she’s not sure when they’re going to make it to the alter. When asked about her wedding date, she said:

“Right now we haven’t set our date. We’re dating right now. He’s still courting me.”

Tamron Hall didn’t let up on the question and continued to press Porsha about the matter. Porsha went on:

“You should be dating, you should be keeping the excitement going. We’re enjoying each other. I’m still his special sweetheart, we’re in the honeymoon phase. Yeah…it’ll come.”

Porsha insisted that the actual date of their wedding was up in the air due to Southern culture.

“In the south, we call it the ‘courtship moment.’ He’s still just treating me so special, we just bought a home together, we’re about to move in. We’ve got so much going on that…it’s coming.” 

Fellow southerner Tamron wasn’t buying Porsha’s answer and said that, while she believed the wedding would take place, she also believed that something was holding Porsha back.

Things got heavier when Tamron brought up Simon’s statement about Nigerian culture and having multiple wives. She suggested that his past comments were deterring her from getting the ball rolling with her wedding.

“So, Simon revealed on the show that his grandfather had 25 wives, and that prompted you, apparently, to ask him if he’d ever cheated. He responded, ‘of course. Everybody has cheated.'” 

Again, Porsha blamed his beliefs on his culture.

“Let’s start with: he’s Nigerian. It’s his culture. They’re allowed and are open to having multiple wives. But, you know, Simon has been in America since he was 17 years old, and I’m American. So, we’re going to have one wife and one husband.”

Porsha and Simon officially announced their relationship–followed by their engagement–in May 2021. Simon was previously married to Porsha’s Real Housewives of Atlanta co-star Falynn Pina. They were still married when he met Porsha and divorced shortly after. Porsha began her Real Housewives journey with her then-husband, former footballer Kordell Stewart. The two split in 2013. In 2019, Porsha gave birth to a daughter, Pilar Jhena, who she shares with ex-finacé Dennis McKinley.

RHOA’s Falynn Pina Heads To The Gym 5 Days After Giving Birth!

Reality star Falynn Pina just proved that even a newborn can’t stop her from getting a good workout in.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Falynn Pina posted a picture of her post-baby body to let her followers know that she was already headed back to the gym. She wore a black workout tank top, matching leggings, and her hair was in a high ponytail. The Instagram post was captioned:

“5 days postpartum + smooth labor (thank the lord) + a green light from my doctor= GYM TIME.”

Falynn and her fiancé Jaylan Banks welcomed a baby girl–Emma Sang Pina–on Nov. 26. Five days later, Falynn was ready to hit the gym.

“Birth takes a woman’s deepest fears and show her that she is stronger than them.”

In October, the couple became engaged while having an extravagant evening out at a restaurant.

Falynn Pina & Jaylan Banks

Falynn was previously married to Simon Guobadia from 2019 to 2021. Their divorce was finalized earlier this year.

Simon accused Falynn of having an affair with Jaylan, which ultimately resulted in the deterioration of their marriage. He detailed the alleged affair in a now-deleted, explosive Instagram post, stating:

“Let’s start with why I filed for divorce. Let’s start with who she cheated with and currently pregnant for and living in a home I paid for – post divorce.”

Simon Guobadia

Simon is currently engaged to Falynn’s former Real Housewives of Atlanta co-star, Porsha Williams. In the months since the tangled web of romance was woven, both Falynn and Porsha have decided to step down from the infamous reality show.

Drew Sidora Shared That Nicki Minaj Criticized Her Weight When She Auditioned For Role About The Rapper’s Life

Real Housewives of Atlanta newcomer Drew Sidora isn’t holding anything back. The actress, who is commonly known for her role on the hit series The Game, recently sat down with her castmate Kandi Burruss and shared just how harsh the entertainment industry can be at times. While talking with Kandi for her Youtube series Speak On It Drew Sidora revealed that she’s been on a weight loss journey in hopes of getting back the body she had while playing T-Boz in the CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story film. The mother-of-two shared a time when rap star Nicki Minaj told her that she now looks different than how she looked in the VH1 movie.

She said,

“So I was up for an ABC Family series, the Nicki Minaj pilot, and Nicki herself said I don’t look how I looked when I played T-Boz. I was like ‘Nicki!’ and it was like all these ABC execs around.”

Nicki Minaj

She added,

“It is what it is! I was like ‘look I just had a baby.’ My baby is in the car and at the time I think my baby was like three months old. I was literally still breastfeeding.”

Drew Sidora added that she didn’t feel offended by Nicki Minaj’s remarks on her weight gain and is using her constructive criticism as motivation in the gym.

“What I took away was girl get your life together. Get back in the gym, you can’t keep blaming it on the baby, and get to work. So I took the constructive criticism and some real, you know, advice.”

Porsha Williams

Porsha Williams Will Release A Memoir Next Year: I’m More Than A Headline, I’m A Strong Black Woman

Reality star Porsha Williams has grown through several life experiences since her season five “Real Housewives of Atlanta” debut in 2012. The 39-year-old is finally ready to document and share her life story in her first book, “The Pursuit of Porsha.” From her tumultuous marriage to former NFLer Kordell Stewart, to growing up with a civil rights leader for a grandfather, to finding love and motherhood with Dennis McKinley – Porsha Williams has laid it all out onscreen for “RHOA” fans. She will share how she overcame obstacles in her memoir. Porsha Williams said,

“Putting yourself out there in these times can be both a blessing and curse. I want to share the real me and my story here, including both my trials as well as my many blessings.”

Porsha Williams

She continued:

“I am more than a soundbite or a headline or a rumor. I’m a strong Black woman who has triumphed over adversity and owned every single one of my mistakes. My story is a journey of passion, faith, and discovery.”

Porsha has been following in her grandfather, Hosea Williams‘, footsteps – spotted protesting in both the city of Atlanta and Lousiville, Kentucky with the Black Lives Matter movement. She was even arrested alongside VH1 star Yandy Smith at a protest for slain EMT worker Breonna Taylor recently. She commented on her efforts:

“It was devastating to feel like I was out there trying to stand with my people, stand with our allies, and help them raise a message of hope and to be silenced and not able to breathe because of the gas bomb that was thrown…Anybody who is out there now and they feel like they can’t move forward because of the mistreatment [by] the police and what they’re doing to us…I would say to them, stay focused on the cause.”

“The Pursuit of Porsha” is scheduled to be published in September of 2021.
