'Real Housewives Of Atlanta' Season 8: New Casting Revealed; Is Porsha Williams Out? [VIDEO]
The ninth season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is weeks away from its debut on Bravo, but we have the latest on who can expect to see this season as casting rumors have officially begun.
For starters, two new faces will join the cast, according to Sandra Rose earlier this month. They are said to be taking the place to two cast members who are out. We already know one of those women is Kim Fields, who left the show after she joined in season eight.
“Well as the public knows Kim Fields will not be returning,” a source confirmed with the site.
It’s not clear who the other woman is, but word is that it is Williams who will not be coming back either; especially since Kandi Burruss, Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, and Phaedra Parks have already signed their contracts.
“Porsha Williams’ spot is contigent on if they find a strong new cast member that has great chemistry with the rest of the cast and a unique story line. Bravo really oes not like the physical altercations Porsha has been involved in these past few seasons, and it’s really hurting the brand especially the casting process.”
The insider also went on to say, “Bravo as a network does not want to be associated with physical violence on their network like VH1.”
Still, all hope is not lost for Williams, who joined the show in season five along with Moore.
“Porsha’s social media following, fan base, and viewer likability are her only saving graces. So don’t be surprised if there are 2 new housewives next season, but everything is still in the screen stages.”
