Fans Think This Proves Marlo Hampton Is Replacing Kenya Moore or Shereé Whitfield in ‘RHOA’

As rumors continue to swirl about Kenya Moore and Shereé Whitfield getting kicked off “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” over difficult coverage of their relationships, it seems co-star Marlo Hampton finally has joined the cast full time.

The former boutique owner tweeted “Finally Got my 🍑😜” on Wednesday, June 12, sending fans of the Bravo reality TV series in a tizzy.

“Yes Honey.. turn it up baby.”

“Thank [God] you got one. S—, I’m tired of watching hoping you stop by. Can’t wait. #RHOA #MarloHampton.”

Moore had been rumored to be replaced by Eva Marcille, as the former Miss USA winner had eloped to wed husband Marc Daly. Meanwhile, Marcille is reported to be showcasing her wedding planning efforts next season, even though Wendy Williams said she felt Hampton would be a better peach holder.

As for Whitfield, reports say her time is up over her inability to create a solid storyline with her imprisoned boyfriend Tyrone Gilliams.

“Bravo can’t film inside or even outside the jail. This is causing a problem with her storyline,” a source told Us Weekly in April.

Whitfield was reported to have been “very upset” by the news.

Despite the report, however, Whitfield maintained recently that she is just fine.

“She good! Look out for She By Shereé … she ain’t got to answer no questions,” she told blogger FreddyO amid whispers of her getting booted from RHOA.

 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
