Many fans of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” were wondering how the show would ever fill the shoes of RHOA matriarch Nene Leakes after she left the show. The network is bringing on two new faces who will certainly bring some buzz, so we’ll see if the drama ensues.
Kim Fields from “Facts of Life” will join the Atlanta cast. But the most talked about addition is Amiyah Scott, who will be the first transgender “housewife” on the show. According to TMZ:
“Amiyah is a model who was born Arthur and began her transformation 10 years ago when she was 17. Amiyah has been romantically linked to a number of rappers.”
This will be an interesting twist to the dynamic of the show for sure. But as LGTBQ friendly Atlanta is, and as many “fairy princesses” and “godmothers” on the cast it’ll remain to be seen how this casting choice will play out. I’m excited to see!
