Dr. Contessa Metcalfe stars on “Married to Medicine” but she was recently confused for another Bravo reality TV star.

Ahead of the part 1 reunion of M2M Friday, Metcalfe teased a look from the highly-anticipated sitdown on Instagram Thursday, Dec. 20.

“@chanelofficial Will there be receipts at the #marriedtomedicine reunion tomorrow? 🤷🏽‍♀️look on my face tells the story…but watch #married2med on @bravotv FRIDAY12/21!!!

Although she’s on a newer reality show, a few fans did a double take when they thought she looked more like “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” friend of the show Marlo Hampton.

“Idk why you are giving me @marlohampton teas.”

“Looking like @marlohampton.”

“I had to look again I thought this was Marlo lol.”

It’s not the first time a Bravolebrity has gotten mistaken for someone else.

Weeks earlier, folks mistook model Cynthia Bailey’s daughter, Noelle Robinson, for her RHOA star mom.

“Beautiful she looks just like you here. I thought it was you at first!”

“Like mother like daughter…gorgeous!!”

“Stunning just like her mama.”

“Beautiful like your mom @cynthiabailey10. Your dad is handsome too lol.”

Another RHOA star, Shamari DeVoe, also got confused with Bailey back in November.

“Omg For a second I thought it was Cynthia 😬😬”

“Is it just me or does she favor Cynthia with this look?”

“I thought that was Cynthia for a sec.”

It was actually the second time in a matter of three months that fans made that blunder. A fan account previously shared a photo of DeVoe with her husband, Ronnie DeVoe. Followers thought he was side by side with Bailey, or at the very least someone related to her.

“I thought that was Cynthia a quick second.”

“She looks like Cynthia little sister.”

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.
