A new rift seems to be broiling in the tenth season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" (RHOA). This time, it is between close friends Shamea Morton and Porsha Williams.
The two previously figured in a scandal last season that had Phaedra Parks fired from the show. The controversy was started by Parks who accused Kandi Burruss and husband Todd Tucker of planning to drug and take advantage of Morton and Williams.
This time, best friends Morton and Williams are going against each other in what seems to be this season's biggest drama yet. During Sunday's episode, Morton got upset with her co-star when Williams announced that she could not make it to Kenya for Morton's wedding because of a "medical condition." Williams did not disclose what her condition was.
Morton confronted Williams about the latter's planned absence to her upcoming nuptials in Kenya. In front of their co-star Kandi Burruss, she declared that her close friend should be present at the important ceremony. While her frustration may be understandable since the two have gotten along well in past seasons, she made a mistake when she aired her grievance in public.
Apparently, Williams took offense at being talked to in front of Burruss. This is understandable given what the past season's false allegations had done to the cast. Williams divulged later in the show that she felt she was "being fronted out in front of the Kandi-coated clique."
The drama continued as Williams and Morton got into the parking lot. The latter called out the former for not being the best friend Morton was expecting her to be, especially given the special occasion.
Morton also alleged Williams of putting Parks over her. "I just want to love and support her from afar," Williams said, apparently concluding that she was not changing her mind about attending her close friend's wedding.
"RHOA" airs on Sundays, at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
