‘RHOA’ Co-Star Kandi Burruss Reacts to Porsha Williams Leaving ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’

Kandi Burruss is currently the longest starring peach holder on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. The Grammy-award winner will continue being the most veteran star following announcements from Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams leaving the franchise. When the latter confirmed she was leaving the show after 10 years, Burruss was one of her co-stars that reacted in her Instagram post shocked at Williams’ decision.

Porsha Williams’ ‘RHOA’ exit gets reactions

Williams joined RHOA in season 5, while Burruss has been with the show since season 2. Both reality stars have been working together for 10 years and have gone through ups and downs during their friendship. When Williams announced she was exiting the franchise for good, Burruss was one of the first to post a reaction.

“I was hoping you weren’t 4real leaving. Wishing you the best on all you’ve got going on!” Burrus replied.

Another former peach holder that shared a reaction was Shamari DeVoe who starred in the show in season 11.

“On to the next chapter @porsha4real! I’m sure it will be an amazing one!” DeVoe replied.

Andy Cohen, who is a producer on the show, also added a comment that left the door open for Williams to return in the future.

“What a run. What an evolution. As we discussed, I’m gonna go ahead and consider this more of a PAUSE than a goodbye,” he wrote

Porsha Williams is thankful for her time on ‘RHOA’

There’s no denying that Williams made a name for herself and took advantage of the platform RHOA afforded her. Williams is one of the icons of the franchise and when she confirmed her exit, she couldn’t be more thankful to everyone she has worked with over the years.

“I want to thank Bravo, Truly Original, and Andy Cohen for this opportunity, and all the show’s producers, editors, and assistants, for working tirelessly every day to create our show,” Williams said in her statement posted on Instagram.
Williams continued, “I have so much love and endless gratitude for my Bravo family and supporters. You’ve made the past decade a truly special one.”

Porsha Williams has a Bravo spinoff

Bravo fans that are sad to see Williams leave RHOA have not seen the last of her on the cable network. Williams had been booked and busy filming her own spinoff show. The former peach holder recently gave a sneak peek to viewers during an episode of Bravo’s Chat Room.

“So this family shows is everything,” Williams teased. “It is a whole other side of me. You will get to see a lot of where my personality comes from, the family dynamic, the blending of it all.”

Williams assured viewers that her family is just as outspoken and funny as her and people will love to see the dynamic amongst them.

“I have so many people in my family who are outspoken… so many different characters in my family that we’re going to meet and I know you’re going to love them,” she added. “I hope you don’t love them more than me but I know you’re going to love them because they keep it one thousand. They’re funny, they’re just like me.”

Bravo has not confirmed when they will air the new show but it is expected to drop later this year.
