There are tons of changes happening on season 8 of Real Housewives Of Atlanta. Besides the obvious that NeNe Leakes has departed and Sheree Whitfield has very much reappeared (like holding a peach in), there are possibly three NEW ladies actively filming!
Everyone is aware that child star Kim Fields is joining the show, but there are two other potential Housewives entering the mix. First is Shamea Morton, is an old friend of the demoted-promoted Porsha Williams. She also knows Kandi Burruss. The third name circling around a friend of Cynthia Bailey‘s named Tammy McCall-Browning.
Shamea, Kim, and Tammy all attended the recent cast trip to an unidentified tropical location!

Shamea, a Decatur, GA native, is a singer and actress who approached in such films as Drumline. She graduated from University Of Georgia and is a former Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Hawks cheerleader who is currently a host on Atlanta’s V103 Radio Station. Shamea has been filming quite frequently with the ladies and rumors are swirling she is already bickering with Kenya!
But first up, Sheree has been very active – like ‘launching her own fitness business’ active. FINALLY! Hopefully she’ll earn some money to repay the IRS…
“It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood… #bunlife #FitLife #ShapebySheree,” Sheree announced on instagram. [Credit]
Atlanta Constitution Journal spotted Sheree dining at Dolce in Atlanta’s Buckhead shopping district. There Sheree revealed a peek at her newest ventures, fashion consignment, Sheree’s Luxury Consignment. (Is she selling off the remnants of She By Sheree – a fashion company without clothes? #HowDreadful) and fitness: Shape By Sheree!

Hilariously Sheree’s date for the evening was Nigerian. I kid you not! But hey, he was in the flesh, and I don’t believe he’s royalty… He does own a luxury automotive company which leads me to suspect he may possibly have ties with other Atlanta Housewives. And possibly someone attempted to implicate him in a fake boyfriend scam…
Moving right, along to other goings on with the ladies of Atlanta, they are traveling and expanding their branches! The cast recently returned from the tropics and along with all the baggage they likely carried they also brought a slew of new and potential new Housewives: Sheree, Kim, Tammy, and Shamea! No one quite seems to know where the ladies went but apparently it was largely peaceful with the light, zany drama similar to what went down on Real Housewives Of New York‘s cast trip and involved a cruise.
Neither Marlo Hampton or Amiyah Scott attended. Both ladies have filmed with the group but are said to be ‘extras’ – as in not even official “Friends.”

Tammy McCall-Browning is the newest woman spotted with the group. Tammy, a stylist, is married to John Browning, head tennis coach at Emory University and former NCAA champion. Together John and Tammy own Emory Tennis Clinics.
Tammy is the mother (and manager) of hip-hop artist Freedom Augmon (or Freco), who also happens to be the son of NBA player Stacey Augmon, formerly of the Atlanta Hawks. A Spelman Grad, Tammy is also a dancer and fitness buff who owns a fashion business called Planet Freedom which rents clothes and costumes (I believe it rents to dance companies and for usage in TV and movies, etc.). Tammy sounds very interesting and could be a phenomenal addition to RHOA!
It’s also interesting to note that all three of the new women are Georgia natives or have lived in Atlanta for many years – which means Bravo has finally learned its lesson about moving transplants specifically to film the show!
Rolling Out reveals that Tammy has been filming on and off with the ladies. You can see a photo that verifies all the ladies who participated in the cast trip here.
And below are more photos from the RHOA tropical location. It’s unknown if this is the ‘official’ cast trip or just some sort of a getaway to test the waters and try out the new ladies, as it doesn’t appear they were gone very long.
TELL US – ARE YOU GLAD SHEREE FINALLY LAUNCHED A FITNESS BUSINESS? WILL TAMMY AND SHAMEA MAKE GOOD ADDITIONS TO RHOA?
