"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" is coming back for season 10. Along with the usual drama that the reality show will bring, a new housewife will also be added into the mix.
Bravo has confirmed that "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 3 winner Eva Marcille will be joining the 10th season. However, the model will only be a part-time addition to the show.
According to theJasmineBrand, Marcille will be taking home almost $100,000 per episode. Since this seems like a lot of money for a part-time Housewife, some are wondering why isn't a full-time cast member.
BET noted that Marcille's husband, Michael Sterling, is running for mayor of Atlanta. As such, the campaign is his wife's main focus and they are trying not to be distracted by the show.
The producers of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" are still hoping that Marcille will be a full-time member of the cast in season 11.
Meanwhile, as one Housewife joins the show, another maybe leaving it.
Reports have surfaced that Kenya Moore has quit "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" after she did not join the rest of the cast when they went to Barcelona, Spain.
TamaraTattles revealed that the issue started when the other Housewives banded together and applied some pressure on the producers of the reality show to include Kim Zolciak on their Spanish vacation and asked that Moore be left behind.
Moore, a former Miss USA, butted heads with Zolciak this year. Zolciak, a mother of six, has been claiming that Moore's marriage to Marc Daly is fake.
A production source told Us Weekly that Moore has not been fired nor quit the show. The source added that the last-minute change in the trip's lineup was a move made by the show's network, Bravo, in the hopes of getting Moore's new husband, who is an investment banker.
The source also said that Moore is respecting the wishes of her new husband to not be part of the reality show.
"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" returns to Bravo on Sunday, Nov. 5, 8 p.m. EDT.
