Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 7 will have two new additions to the already-confirmed cast of NeNe Leakes, Kandi Burruss, Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, Phaedra Parks and Porsha Williams.
According to Us Weekly magazine, the show will get two more cast members: Claudia Jordan and Demetria McKinney.
Jordan is a former “Deal or No Deal” girl and McKinney is an actress. The magazine reported that McKinney will be a full-time cast member of the popular Bravo series.
Jordan will have a supporting role.
As Us Weekly puts it, “Newbies may change up the dynamic, but tensions are still high between some of the costars. Producers are apparently scrambling to make pot-stirrer Moore get along with the other women. As fans know all too well, Moore got into a vicious brawl with castmate Williams during the taping of their Bravo reunion back in March. Leakes took to her personal website in April to defend Williams while noting that she doesn’t ‘condone violence.’”
The news comes as court documents apparently leaked to Radar Online say that Parks and husband Apollo Nida, who is slated to go to prison for eight years, are having trouble with their marriage.
“I mean, she’s a stripper. She was a stripper. And you know, my husband obviously has been one to frequent strip clubs,” Parks reportedly said in the court documents that pertain to ex-friend Angela Stanton. She was apparently referring to whether Nida could have met Stanton, but no other context was provided.
