For most fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, it’s easy to admit that things just haven’t been the same on the show since RHOA original Sheree Whitfield left after four seasons in 2012. But over the past few weeks rumors have resurfaced that producers are looking to shake up the cast, once again, and that they’re considering bringing Whitfield back into the fold. While there’s no word on if the rumor is true yet, Kandi Burruss recently spoke about the cast and shared her thoughts on Whitfield’s possible return.
In a new interview on The B. Scott Show, Burruss revealed that she’d be happy to see Whitfield return to the show.
“I haven’t heard anything about that, but I mean… I like Sheree. I think that she would be dope. If anybody from the past were to come back, I definitely think Sheree would be the one that I wanna see. Because, the funny thing about Sheree, it’s like — she’s funny and very…quick with her comebacks. She [doesn’t] realize that she can give you that air that’s good for TV. In her mind, she doesn’t think that she’s doing anything. It’s just naturally good television,” Burruss said.
Burruss went on to explain that, unlike NeNe Leakes, she’s happy with everyone in the current cast, but she does wish the rest of the cast would open up about their personal lives.
“I want to see more people being open with their lives this year. Because, to be honest with you — people always be talkin’ ’bout ‘oh, this person don’t have a storyline, that -‘ Outside of the drama that happened on the show, I don’t really think anybody showed what was really going on in their personal lives except for Phaedra and myself. So you know, I get so sick of other people being ‘well she’s using me for –‘ Well, y’all [everybody’s] using each other for a storyline because none of y’all show anything personal about what’s going on in y’all’s personal lives! Like, really. To be honest. So, I would like to see more people who are open to really show what’s really going on in their life so that their own personal story is just as interesting as the story when we all get together and they have their arguments, or whatever,” Burruss said.
