After months of speculation about the season 8 cast of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," Bravo has finally released a teaser trailer for the new season. The promo video confirms that Kandi Burruss, Cynthia Bailey, Kenya Moore, Phaedra Parks, and Porsha Williams are all coming back to the series. The clip also shows the new Housewives, including "Facts of Life" star Kim Fields and former Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Hawks cheerleader Shamea Morton. And with Sheree Whitfield's return to the series, season 8 is shaping up to be a must-see for the franchise's fans.

In the trailer, Kim is seen getting to know the ladies, and the star is shocked when Phaedra informs her that her husband, Apollo, is in prison. Porsha expresses her desire to be a mom, while Kandi and Todd announce that they are expecting a baby.

Apollo is also discussed by the other ladies, and Phaedra's mom is heard saying that Apollo's actions have hurt the entire family. Meanwhile, Kenya is seen going on dates as she tries to find true love.

Sheree's return also promises a lot of drama as she and Kenya are about to stir the pot and reignite old feuds, while Cynthia and Peter's marriage goes through a rough patch when a video of Peter getting too close to another woman makes the rounds online.

The new season will also have a lot of tension and fighting, with Porsha and Cynthia seen getting into an argument and Kenya going up against Peter.

"Didn't I tell you this was a wild bunch, girl?" Phaedra tells a shocked Kim.

Bravo has shared a few choice spoilers for this season. It appears that the ladies will be taking another vacation as they are seen dancing on a boat. The website hints that Phaedra may have a new man in her life, and that there could be issues with Kandi's pregnancy. Kenya will have an emotional conversation with her father, while Sheree "may or may not" be throwing a drink on someone.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" season 8 premieres on Sunday, Nov. 8 at 8/7c on Bravo.
