I’ve seen previous comments so I know I’m probably in the minority here, but Kandi’s actually been one of my favorite housewives so I’m actually a little sad to see her go…
Amid ongoing Real Housewives of Atlanta cast shake-up rumors, Kandi Burruss has revealed some pretty big news. Kandi, who has been part of the cast since season 2, is confirming that she’s leaving the Bravo show… at least for now. She shared the news with on the red carpet of the 66th annual Grammys on Sunday.
“I’m not really keeping up right now,” said Kandi when she was asked by the folks over at Variety about the show. “I’m not keeping up. I already said it, so I’ll tell you. I decided I’m not coming back this year. It’s been 14 seasons, and they allowed us to sit around for a little too long, but during that time I had started working on a lot of other things, and I got some nice big projects coming soon, so I’m super excited about those things.
“But it’s not just that,” she continued. “It’s just like, you know, after you really have time to think, and a friend of mine was like, ‘Why do you keep doing it?’ And I was like, ‘Well I think because I’ve just been doing it so long, feels weird to think not to do it?’ So I was just like, You know what? I’m going to take a break, I’m going to take a moment… I’m not coming back this year.’”

The latest #RHOA rumors suggested that Kandi, Kenya, and Shereè would be brought back while the rest of the ladies would be given pink slips.. however that’s obviously not the case at least for Kandi. Personally, I’m a little iffy about a completely new cast because it could go really well or horribly wrong… I’d personally take an OG cast like Nene, Kandi, Kenya, Sheree, Kim, and Porsha any day but I doubt we’ll ever see that again. Are you sad to see Kandi go? Are you here for a potential fresh start with the RHOA cast?
