‘She Better Hope Her Spot Is Secured Next Season’: ‘RHOA’ Star Drew Sidora Reveals the Cast Members She’d Remove to Bring Back Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams

“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star, Drew Sidora recently sat down with Page Six and got real messy with her answer to the question on which recent cast member of the show she would swap out for her dear friends and former “RHOA” stars Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams. 

Without hesitation, the “‘Til The Dawn” singer began quickly taking apart track and field athlete Sanya Richards-Ross’ peach. 

“That’s so easy, the runner track star, Sanya, Sanya. She can just go back on that track and run a new race, because this is not the one for her.” 

Sidora and Richards-Ross’ feud came as a surprise, considering the ladies started off as friends in the beginning of season 14. Their drama began after Richards-Ross appeared on fellow castmate Kandi Burruss’ “Speak On It” podcast where she claimed she and Sidora were never really friends, and simply just friendly. 

After hearing about the track star’s comments, Sidora wrote a message aimed at her on Twitter calling Richards-Ross a “flip flopper.” The two began to bump heads during the show’s run, ultimately creating the long-running feud. 

The second Housewife to lose her peach in the swap was the fashion designer herself, Shereé Whitfield. Sidora ensured that it would not be out of the ordinary for Whitfield to leave the show since she has never been a consistent cast member to begin with. 

“I think Shereé, it would be nothing new like Shereé comes for a season and then leaves, so it would just be kind of keeping it in the tradition.”

Sidora and Whitfield have had their few shares of ups and downs on the show. As of right now, they are down due to Sidora allegedly not yet receiving cash from Whitfield after co-hosting Marlo Hampton and Kenya Moore’s birthday bash together. 

Fans of the show were amused by Sidora’s answer, and decided to give their own opinions on whose peach they would swap out. 

“We all feel the same lol but keep She by Sheree she helps with ratings”

“She better hope her spot is secured next season”

“Cynthia not even nobody to bring back. The perfect cast would be Nene, Porsha, Sheree, Kenya, Marlo, Phaedra, and Kandi”

“They should stop commenting on each other’s employment it’s actually nasty” 

Neither Whitfield nor Richards-Ross has yet commented on Sidora’s answer.

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.
