Almost everything Kenya Moore says and does is criticized. This is expected since she has been a polarizing character ever since her first episode on Real Housewives of Atlanta. Aside from people hating on Kenya, a lot of viewers (and some of her costars) have questioned her authenticity and accused her of faking story lines for the show. Over and over again.
During the last episode, Kenya brought her cousin in to take a phone call about her pregnancy test which ended up being inconclusive. Maybe it was just some spotty editing, but haters came for Kenya for creating a false story line after she shared that moment on television.
Kenya opened up about the episode in a Bravo blog post. Kenya shared, “That visit with the doctor happened this past summer just weeks after we got married, and I was very excited and optimistic about the possibilities. Marc [Daly] and I had only been married a short time, so we were hopeful.”
And then she came for her haters: “With that said, it’s not easy to go through something so personal when the whole world is watching. Since the episode aired on Sunday, there has been a lot of support, but there have also been a lot of wild accusations and flat out lies on blogs as a result of me sharing such a private moment. This is the very reason it’s difficult to show something so intensely private with the world. You leave yourself open to constant character assassination, mindless chatter, and ruthless people intent on destroying you. What is for me is for me. I’ve been blessed and will continue to live my best life.”
Another interesting part of the episode was Cynthia Bailey’s lunch with her ex-husband Peter Thomas. Kenya was asked if she thought Cynthia still has feelings for Peter and Kenya didn’t exactly answer the question, but she did share, “I think Cynthia is a lover, not a fighter. She wants peace. Peter and Cynthia were together for a long time and had a lot of great memories together, so I think she will always care.”
There has been some gossip for a long time about Kenya missing the cast trip to Barcelona. There have been plenty of stories swirling around, from her being fired to paying $25,000 an episode for missing the trip. Did Kenya refuse to go on the trip or did production prevent her from going? We will probably not get a straight answer on that one, but Kenya says, “I was going through a tough time, but I’m figuring things out as I go. The beautiful thing is we went to Egypt for my birthday — I’d say that trumps Barcelona any day!”
TELL US – DO YOU THINK KENYA USED THE INCONCLUSIVE PREGNANCY TEST FOR A STORY LINE?
