“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” stars Shereé Whitfield and Kenya Moore have been exchanging shady blows at one another on Twitter ever since Sunday night’s pre-ultimate episode of the season.

During the March 25 show, Moore’s long-hidden husband, Marc Daily, made his debut and Witfield promptly greeted Daily. At the event about the premiere of Moore’s domestic violence PSA Witfield complimented Daily on his nose ring, but in a confessional, she admitted she hadn’t seen a man wear a nose ring since Tupac Shakur.

Witfield also tweeted of the couple walking off hand-in-hand to spend time together, “Can we say #awkward #holdinghands #ZOOMIN #hesjustnotthatintoyou.”

It seems Moore caught wind of the diss and retweeted a viewer who wrote, “DAMN @KenyaMoore husband is fine😻 and Sheree girl how you throwing shade at someone man when you can only talk to yours for 15 minutes via collect calls.”

She also retweeted, “A woman dating a man in prison really shouldn’t make down low jokes.”

Whitfield’s storyline this season has focused on her romance with Tyrone Gilliams, a former Penn State basketball star who’s serving time in federal prison for wire fraud.

“Everybody seems to b so bothered by me and Tyrone…being married to a man living another life is not a relationship either!! #sweeparoundyourowndoorsteps #yourhouseaintclean,” Whitfield fired back Monday, March 26 tweeted.

But Moore fired back after getting wind of Whitfield’s shade.

The “SHE by Shereé” designer added in a follow-up tweet, “I’m so over ppl thinking they can play dirty and talk reckless and b immune….well, ur NOT! I’ve allowed many things to b said and tweeted over the years w/o a response but lately….#Igottime.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
