‘Breaks My Heart’: Cynthia Bailey’s Couple Pic with Mike Derails After Fans Mention Kenya’s Marital Woes with Marc Daly

Social media users seem extremely concerned about Cynthia Bailey‘s best friend Kenya Moore, especially after the recent drama with her estranged husband Marc Daly.

On Sunday, Bailey took to Instagram and posted a gorgeous couple shot that showed her and fiancé Mike Hill posing together on the night of Daly’s charity event.

The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” actress sported a Jovani leopard print dress, while the Fox sportscaster wore an all-black tuxedo. The 53-year-old model shouted out Hill in her post for hosting the Black Man Lab benefit affair and wrote in her caption, “Love to see our black men come together to uplift, mentor, empower and inspire each other. My baby @itsmikehill did a wonderful job hosting. It was a beautiful event 🤎 #theblackmanlab #empowerment.”

Bailey also tagged Moore in her post and added the hashtag “#marcdaly.” Instead of fans focusing on Hill and Bailey’s post, fans diverted their attention to her bestie’s current marital drama.

“As much as I do not like Kenya no one deserves to be treated like that. Breaks my heart for her.”

“It was really hard to watch the way Marc treated Kenya. It’s kind sad that such a great event was reduced to all the awkward moments how on tv”

“It looked like Marc was thanking the restroom lady, and paper boy before his celebrity hosts or his own wife 🤦🏻‍♀️… it was heartbreaking”

“I like Kenya but there is something not quite right with Marc! Kenya needs to move on from Marc’s abusive personality for her own well-being! #RHOA”

Many of Bailey’s fans referred to Sunday night’s episode of “RHOA,” which was filmed last September.

The episode showed Daly being extremely cold toward his wife at the charity event that connects young Black males with successful Black businessmen. The SoCo restaurant owner dismissed any opinion his wife made about the event and refused to publicly thank and acknowledge her for helping assist him with the affair.

Daly also said he “hated” being married to Moore and suggested she was full of “drama.”

The former Miss USA star also complained during the episode about Daly’s actions toward her.

“I love standing by Marc as Mrs. Daly, but I always want to be appreciated as Mrs. Daly and as a partner,” said Moore…This is the time to tell the entire world how much you value your spouse. And it’s crickets.

“All of the couples seem to be happy. Just enjoying each other so much. I’m just really disappointed,” she continued. “I miss the fact that that’s where we used to be. It was caring and love and everything that anyone could ever hope for looking for a mate. Looking at where we are now, it’s hurtful to see that we’re not where we used to be.”

Moore and Daly publicly split a day after the benefit event was thrown.

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.
