While Bravo has yet to announce the official cast roster for "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" season 8, rumors about the possible members for the show are beginning to come out. 

According to TheJasmineBrand, "RHOA" season 7 newbie Claudia Jordan will return to the reality show next season. Although there is no official invitation from the show's staff as of the moment, Jordan is reportedly confident that the cable network will still feature her in the series. 

"I'm still in the mix. I'm still in play with the Housewives," the reality show star said. "I've not been released from my contract." 

But while Jordan said that she will still join the rest of the women in "RHOA" next season, she recently confirmed that she is no longer working with Ricky Smiley in hosting the "Ricky Smiley Morning Show." However, she kept mum about the rumors that she and her co-host are not in good terms.

"I think he liked me personally, but I will say - I don't think I was a good fit for the show... I don't think we're now cool, personally," the reality star claimed. 

Meanwhile, Jordan's co-star Kandi Burruss recently confirmed that she is pregnant with her first child with husband Todd Tucker. According to reports, Burruss was obviously excited when she found out that she is going to be a mother again soon. She made the announcement through E! News and said that having Todd's baby is a dream come true. 

Tucker also shared that Burruss' daughter Riley and his daughter Kaela, both from previous relationships, where thrilled to find out that they will soon have a new member of the family and they both cannot wait to become big sisters. 

Burruss also reportedly announced the good news to her "RHOA" co-stars, and they are all happy for her. Does this mean that her pregnancy will be featured when "RHOA" returns to Bravo next season?

Filming for "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" season 8 already began, and Burruss already shared a behind-the-scene photo on her Instagram account.
