Inside the sordid X-rated feud between 'RHOA's Kenya Moore and Brittany Eady

ATLANTA, GEORGIA: In May 2024, fans were thrilled by the cast announcement for Season 16 of 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta,' welcoming back familiar faces such as Kenya Moore, Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, Shamea Morton, Cynthia Bailey, Brittany Eady, Kelli Ferrell, and Angela Oakley back on their screens.

Filming for Season 16 began with cast members sporadically sharing hints about the upcoming season on social media. However, it wasn't until June 2024 that a particular event involving the women ignited a frenzy on social media.

Kenya had to assert her authority over Brittany, a new cast member on 'RHOA,' showing her that she shouldn't cross boundaries. Details have surfaced about the intense altercation between Kenya and Brittany at the grand opening of Kenya's hair spa in Atlanta on Thursday, June 6, 2024.

According to reports from Media Takeout, via Bravo fan account Dorinda Deadly, the event took a turn for the worse when Kenya and Brittany engaged in a heated argument. Allegedly, Kenya took the opportunity to publicly shame Brittany by unveiling posters displaying 'highly explicit and graphic images' of her.

The controversial photos allegedly sent to Brittany pushed her to a breaking point, leading her to confront Kenya about it during the event. The Neighborhood Talk stated that their discussion quickly escalated, with Brittany supposedly making a threatening statement about using her guns against Kenya. “I have guns for b*****s like you," Brittany allegedly told Kenya.

While neither of them confirmed the altercation, witnesses at the event confirmed there was some sort of confrontation. Following the incident, their co-star Drew expressed shock and disbelief on Twitter, while celebrity photographer Erick Robinson hinted at the intense moment on 'RHOA' with his X followers.

"I am still trying to recover myself. I couldn’t even take a photo, my mouth fell to the floor, and I'm just in awe like that was the deadliest scene probably ever filmed in the franchise," Erick shared.

Kenya Moore's party quickly became a hot topic on social media following reports of her confrontation with Brittany. Viewers of the show were buzzing with curiosity, eager to uncover the details of the incident.

The intrigue only heightened when, on June 10, 2024, the X account Mad Beefs shared purported leaked audio from the event. This audio provided a deeper understanding of the feud between the two co-stars.

During the audio recording, Kenya blatantly says "Brittany does escort" and calls her a "paid h**" in the presence of others. Another individual at the event claimed to have seen posters of Brittany engaging in sexual activities, with one person who can be heard saying "that's a p***s"  and another person expressing disgust by calling it "nasty."

In the background, Brittany can be heard repeatedly asking, "Who?" Kenya then goes on to accuse Brittany of having her emails leaked on an Instagram account, allegedly showing her interactions with clients and the prices she charges for her services, which Kenya claims to be as high as $1400. "You're not only a h**, but you're a cheap h**," Kenya shared in the audio.

In addition to the insults hurled by Kenya towards Brittany in the audio, she also referred to her as a "thot" and made allegations that she had sent explicit photos of herself via Snapchat to the internet, drawing inspiration from Yo Gotti's track "Down in the DM."

Why did Bravo suspend Kenya Moore?

Kenya Moore has been suspended indefinitely from the reality show 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' following a scandal involving explicit posters displayed at her hair spa grand opening. The posters allegedly depicted series newcomer Brittany Eady engaging in sexual activity, causing shock among party attendees.

It is unclear who the recipient of the alleged sexual act was, as Brittany was not present during the unveiling of the images. It was reported Bravo cameras were filming the event, capturing the controversial moment.

Following the scandal, an investigation was launched to look into the situation further. The controversy surrounding the explicit posters has led to Moore's indefinite suspension from the show.

An insider told Page Six that the explicit photos were "readily accessible" online and suggested that Brittany had made threats to Kenya using the word "gun" before the incident. However, a production source claimed, "At no time was Kenya ever threatened with a weapon, nor was there ever a weapon present during the course of production."

Following Bravo's decision to suspend Kenya Moore, the reality TV star took to Instagram to express her frustration, stating that the rumors surrounding an alleged explicit photo scandal were tarnishing her image and negatively impacting her new business venture.

"The way that people go out of their way to disparage your name or ruin your business, I'll never understand it," she said during the session. "I'm a single mom. I'm out here just like anybody else. I am not getting child support, I'm not getting anything. I'm taking care of my daughter on my own," she further added.

She asked her fans to accompany her on this journey, particularly during a challenging week, and said, "I’m not going anywhere, despite all the stuff surrounding whatever… people want to write."

During her Instagram live, Kenya's Housewives peers were constantly observing her and offering kind words. Kenya specifically expressed her gratitude towards Drew Sidora and Porsha Williams for being supportive friends.

Porsha left a comment expressing her love and admiration for Kenya, referring to her as a "Queen." Shamea Morton and Angela Oakley mentioned that they were also watching the event, showing their support. Additionally, Drew complimented Kenya on her fabulous hair.

"For the record, I've never once had possession of any weapons or threatened anyone ever. I've never been to jail, in fight, or even had as much as a speeding ticket. That's not my character. I am hurt by the narrative that's being displayed. Wrong is wrong," she added.
