Real Housewives of Atlanta newbie Claudia Jordan caught up with Bravo following part one and part two of the reunion, which she said was a “piece of cake.” Claudia had a lot to say the first hour, mostly about Porsha Williams of course, but if she said anything other than “wow” the second hour, I missed it. I assume she couldn’t hear through Cyn’s wig.
Following part one, Bravo asked Claudia if she was surprised by Porsha.
“Absolutely not,” shared Claudia. “She’s been quite stank all season. The last time I was surprised at her actions was when we met for lunch way back in the very beginning of the season, because up until a week prior, I thought we were cool enough. Not friends or besties … but cordial acquaintances. But when she kept doing little catty things, I saw what it was.”

Claudia said women who feel threatened by new energy need to be more open minded. “I’ve never been intimidated or jealous of any other women,” claimed Claudia. “I embrace my lovely friends, because I respect them and how they handle their business. I love meeting new people and look forward to learning new things from new acquaintances I make. So to be so closed minded about another person right out of the gate and create a ‘reason’ for it after the fact is just dumb. But at this point, dumbness does not shock me nor does ignorance.”
Claudia denied asking “around town for the tea” on Porsha.
“I do want to address one of the lies Ms. Williams told about me at the reunion,” said Claudia. “I never asked around town for the tea. Porsha started making it clear to the world she had an issue with me, even though I had no idea why. I then heard some completely unsolicited gossip from my friends, but I kept it under my hat – it was juicy, but it was really none of my concern outside of gossip, and I certainly was not seeking it out. And it would have remained there forever had she had not become so nasty to me.”
Claudia continued, “At the end of the day, I don’t care what and whom that girl allows to enter her bat cave. But just keep it polite and cute towards me. Don’t get caught out there loudly running your mouth about me in hallways. Don’t be shady at work. Don’t make statements to NeNe [Leakes] slandering me and Kenya [Moore], talking about our legs being up in the air and criticizing us for not being married, then complain that folks are slandering you. It’s quite simple. And if you know in your real life how you get down, it might be in your best interest not to poke fun, egg on, and laugh at another woman being wrongly accused of doing what you do, because you might mess around and taunt someone that will get with you and spill your room-temperature tea. #DropsMic”
Following part two, Bravo, again, asked Claudia about Porsha. When asked if she was surprised Porsha denied dating an older man, Claudia said, “No, but I really don’t want to be asked to speak on her anymore.”
“I really and truly do not care,” added Claudia. “She’s not in my circle. I don’t really know any women outside of the other Housewives that hang with her, and I couldn’t care less. The only reason it was ever brought up was to show the hypocrisy of some of the ladies. I made my point and kept it moving. I hope I’m beyond clear.”
Claudia explained why she didn’t say much during part two of the reunion.
“I am trying my best to stay out of arguments that don’t concern me if I don’t need to refer to them to prove a point,” explained Claudia. “So I sat back, chilled, and enjoyed the fireworks and stayed out of the line of fire. Plus no one needed my help or co-signing – girls were getting read left and right without my assistance, so there was no need for me to offer up my opinion on things that had nothing to do with me. I think I did well exercising self-control!”
When asked what shocked her the most, Claudia snarked, “Shocking? After being around these ladies these past ten months, nothing shocks me. Shoot… what’s shocking is when there is peace and folks actually exercise good manners and positivity in front of everyone. Catch it!”
Claudia went on to let viewers know what she’ been up to since filming ceased.
“I have two films coming out this year called The Hills and Love is Not Enough. I am in talks right now for a third movie to start filming in the fall. This past weekend I got the chance to catch up with a dear friend of mine that got me started in radio – Mr Jamie Foxx. His album drops on May 18th and we were there to support him at his album listening party,” shared Claudia. “I was just in St. Thomas for Carnival. I was shooting a magazine cover and a music video for the reggae artist, Pressure, and I had such a good time! So many people approached me at Carnival who are fans of #RHOA. I just wanted to say thank you to them all!”
