Kenya Moore opened up about her exit from Real Housewives of Atlanta during season 16, saying she has no regrets.
Moore, 53, shared her perspective via Instagram on Wednesday, June 26, alongside a series of photos and videos of her daughter, Brooklyn.
“Thank you for all the support #teamtwirl. My heart is full and my conscience is clean,” she began. “So many false claims hiding behind anonymous sources. All this conversation and no facts being reported. If a claim or source was valid, would they need to hide?”
Moore doesn’t explicitly call it out, but she’s likely referring to her indefinite suspension from the show. Moore’s expulsion from the Bravo series came after she allegedly shared explicit photos of castmate Brittany Eady at the grand opening of Moore’s Kenya Moore Hair Spa on June 6. While cameras were rolling, People reports that Moore showed photos of Eady “performing oral sex on an unnamed male.”

Insiders with knowledge of the situation told Us Weekly that Moore would not be a part of upcoming episodes that are expected to air in 2025. One source exclusively told Us that “a return hasn’t been discussed.”
“The rumors and narrative about me randomly showing nudes or revenge p[orn] is 1000% untrue. I have proof and will share soon,” Moore wrote on Instagram.
The RHOA vet of 12 seasons denied the report of her alleged misconduct when it first surfaced in a statement via X.
“I would never engage in revenge porn, I have never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail,” she wrote on June 8. “I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news #sweet16🔥”

RHOA alum Kandi Burruss weighed in on the controversy during a radio interview with the “Streetz Morning Takeover” radio show on Monday, June 24. on June 24, coming to Moore’s defense.
“I don’t like the fact that they suspended Kenya. I know a lot of people was like ‘she shouldn’t have shown that’ but this is housewives,” she said. “How many times we done did something that you think somebody shouldn’t do? So who made the rules? Why do you all of a sudden got such an issue with somebody doing something crazy to somebody?”
