Real Housewives Of Atlanta

-

Season 9 Vuzu (*116) 21:00 Reality

There’s a reason The Real Housewives Of Atlanta (2008-current) is one of the franchise’s most successful versions and is only the third to reach double-digit seasons: its stars – most infamously NeNe Leakes, who’s featured in all but one season so far (season 9).

And while neither NeNe nor net1

work Bravo have given exact reasons for her season 9 omission, the 50year-old simply says “I wasn’t invited back. But that’s old news now and I’m right where I belong: front and centre!”

That doesn’t mean she’s patched 2

things up with her former bestie Kim Zolciak-Biermann and their feud is still raging after five seasons, both in front of the camera and privately.

Real Housewives has fives spin3

offs of its own: Don’t Be Tardy (2012-current); Kandi Factory (2012-current); I Dream Of NeNe: The Wedding (2013), Kandi’s Wedding (2014) and Kandi’s Ski Trip (2015), which followed Atlanta Housewife Kandi Burruss and her family bonding at a ski resort.

Despite it being part of the House4

wives reality franchise, not all of the stars are actual housewives – most are businesswo­men and entreprene­urs, with only Kim and NeNe being bona fide stay-at-home wives.

Porsha Williams has been carrying 5

a crystal around since her season 5 debut in 2013, claiming that it “heals any negative energy coming at me”.

DeShawn Snow revealed in 2015 6

that she was only kept for season 1 because the producers thought she was “too human” for the circus. She adds, “I’m not as wild as the others. I’m not going to run around acting like a crazy person because of other people”.
