There are currently rumors circulating that Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey Bravo won’t have a peach for the thirteenth season of Bravo’s hit show.
However, Bailey recently refuted the rumors during an interview with The Shade Room. “I have no plans to leave RHOA at this time. Every year there are rumors saying that I am getting fired, or not returning,” Bailey said.
“I’ve been a peach holder consistently for 10 years now. I love my cast, and my Bravo family. I am looking forward to next season.”
There have also been rumors circulating that the model and entrepreneur isn’t being fired, but that she is being offered a “reduced role” by the CEO of the production company, and at a much lower rate than her being cast as an actual housewife.
However, Bailey has refuted those claims as well. “That is completely false,” Bailey said “We just recently filmed the reunion, and have not started contract negotiations yet.”
