AceShowbiz - Fans of Phaedra Parks may soon see much more of her on their screens. According to Love B. Scott, Bravo is negotiating Phaedra Parks' return to "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" following Kenya Moore's unexpected exit.
Phaedra Parks, 50, originally joined "RHOA" in season 3 and left after season 9 in 2017 following a dramatic departure. Phaedra's exit from RHOA was a result of her circulating damaging rumors about Kandi Burruss and her husband, Todd Tucker, involving fellow cast member Porsha Williams.
Reports suggest that Bravo is eager to finalize Phaedra's contract soon. However, the biggest hurdle is her current contract with "Married to Medicine", where she appeared in the latest season. The network was hopeful that Phaedra's contract would be negotiated in time for Cynthia Bailey's "Lake Bailey" event this past weekend. However, Bravo is still trying to iron out some details of Phaedra's contract.
In addition to the news about Phaedra's potential return, Cynthia Bailey, 57, who is already confirmed to return as a friend of the show, has reportedly been filming more scenes than initially planned for season 16 amid Kenya Moore's exit.
Cynthia Bailey is filming "more and more" scenes in recent weeks. It remains unclear whether she will be promoted to a full-time Housewife. These developments come after Kenya Moore's recent exit from the show, following allegations that she shared explicit images of newcomer Brittany Eady.
Kenya, 53, has denied the allegations, stating in an Instagram post, "The rumors and narrative about me randomly showing nudes or revenge p is 1000% untrue. I have proof and will share soon."
While fans anticipate Phaedra's potential return, the series is gearing up for its highly anticipated 16th season, featuring familiar faces Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, and Shamea Morton, along with newcomers Brit Eady, Kelli Ferrell, and Angela Oakley.
With all these dynamic changes, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" is expected to return for season 16 in late 2024. Fans are on the edge of their seats, eagerly waiting to see if Phaedra Parks will indeed make her comeback and how the show will unfold without Kenya Moore.
