Amid Rumors She’s Replacing Kenya Moore, Eva Marcille Gets Back Into Pre-Baby Shape

While splitting duties as a second-time new mom and a “Dish Nation” co-host, model and actress Eva Marcille is getting her body back into shape to potentially replace pregnant Kenya Moore on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

“Day 1 of my #fitlife I’m 8 weeks postpartum and I’m #Ready!!! 2-month fitness plan in full effect (don’t mind my makeup, I just got off work),” the Marcille wrote on Instagram Monday, June 18.

Marcille gave birth to her second child, son Michael Todd Sterling, Jr., in April. He is her first child with fiancé and former Atlanta mayoral candidate Michael Todd Sterling. Jr. is also the little brother to Marley Rae, whose father is Kevin McCall.

Rumors say Marcille could give viewers insight into her life with the new baby as she prepares to wed Sterling as a new RHOA housewife. As a friend of the show last season, Marcille is said to be on tap to replace Moore for season 11.

However, Moore recently struck down reports saying she’d accept a lesser role on the show. She said on Instagram she’d “be a housewife or nothing at all.”

So instead of seeing the ins and outs of Marcille’s life as a mom and wife, Moore assured fans her baby will get screen time.

“Don’t worry #teamtwirl you will get to see #babytwirl and all that I’m experiencing as a new wife and mother-to-be one way or another,” Moore said. “You will see my raw truth… the good the bad and the ugly one way or another ☺ .”

Still, Marcille fans are giddy about the star getting in shape.

“Gym Beat ❤.”

“Get it boo!!!! You got this.”

“Motivation 🙌🏽💪🏽.”

“Get it Eva the diva 😍.”

And one couldn’t help but speculate on the prospect of the “America’s Next Top Model” album holding a peach.

“Just got off work from filming RHOA issa peach holder 🍑📺📽.”

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
