Kenya Moore has shared her first public reaction after it was confirmed that she was leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta following her suspension from Season 16.
Moore had been suspended from the Bravo reality series pending an investigation into an incident while filming. The reality star reportedly displayed sexually explicit images of her co-star Brittany Eady during an event she hosted promoting a business venture.

After news broke that Moore would not return to RHOA, she took to social media to address her fans.

After reports of the incident, many accused Moore of “revenge porn,” something that she denied in a post on social media.
“I would never engage in revenge porn, I have never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail,” Moore shared on X, formerly Twitter. “I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news.”
It is not clear how Bravo will handle Moore’s exit from RHOA, as filming for Season 16 is still in its early days. Despite initial reports that the network had left the door open for Moore to return to the show in the future, a source close to the matter told Deadline that was never discussed.
RHOA is in the middle of a reboot season, and Moore, alongside Drew Sidora, were the only two returning housewives from Season 15. Bravo also enlisted Porsha Williams for the new season after a two-season break, with former RHOA star Cynthia Bailey joining the show as a guest star. New cast additions included Angela Oakley, Eady, and Kelli Ferrell.
