After news spread that Moore wouldn't be back on RHOA, she went on social media to thank her fans. Moore posted on X, a platform like Twitter “You are the best fans anyone could ever ask for and I love you all so very much. Always and forever,” She also used the hashtag "#TeamTwirlForever." 

Following the incident, many accused Moore of "revenge porn," which she denied in another social media post. Moore shared on 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 added, “I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news.”


 

It's not clear how Bravo will handle Moore leaving RHOA since Season 16 is still filming. Initially, there were rumors Bravo might let Moore come back in the future, but a source close to the situation told Deadline that was never discussed.

Why is Kenya Moore leaving RHOA? 

Kenya Moore is leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta after being suspended indefinitely for allegedly sharing explicit photos of new cast member Brittany Eady. Bravo launched an investigation into the incident, which ultimately led to Moore's departure from the show. 

Sources close to production revealed to TMZ that Moore was informed of this decision on June 25, reportedly through a mutual agreement with the network. How her representative hasn't responded to any comments yet, according to TMZ.

The controversy unfolded during Eady's hair spa grand opening, where Moore allegedly displayed photos depicting Eady in a sexual act. Reports suggested this action was in response to a perceived threat from Eady, although a separate production source disputed any claims of threats involving a weapon, per PEOPLE.
