RHOA Season 17 Spoilers Revealed: K. Michelle Feuds With These Two Costars, Porsha and Shamea’s Tension Continues as Cast Heads to Dallas, Plus Newbies Are Introduced
The cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta has been filming for season 17 for several weeks now. Not much is known about the upcoming installment, except that the entire cast from Season 16 is expected to return. However, a few details have recently leaked about what fans can expect regarding the cast dynamics.
Currently, it has been all but confirmed that singer and former Love & Hip Hop star K. Michelle, 43, will be on RHOA season 17 in some capacity. She has been seen with the ladies, and some of the cast have interacted with her on social media. The same is true for restaurateur Pinky Cole, 37.
Someone with knowledge of the filming for The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 17 reached out to Bravo and Cocktails with some details. They stated that the cast is about three weeks into filming, and the person also confirmed that Cynthia Bailey, 58, is returning as a friend of the show. The person also stated that former Love & Hip Hop star Tammy Rivera, 39, will also make appearances throughout the season.
The insider also states that the drama between Porsha Williams, 44, and Shamea Morton, 43, remains unresolved, and that Kelli Ferrell, 40, has taken the side of the latter of the two dueling friends. Apparently, Angela Oakley, 44, and Drew Sidora, 40, have had some minor drama with K so far. The report also says that the singer has “stirred up some conversation” among the ladies.
Of course, the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is expected to feature multiple cast trips, and the insider says the first was K’s, which was to Dallas. This fits as she has made the shift to country music after several years of wanting to do so. The report also states that an ongoing “pass the peach” situation exists between Kelli, K, and Pinkey. Additionally, producers wanted Pinkey for the show in order to have a married entrepreneur.
There’s also a mention of Kelli’s tax issues, as well as one of the events filmed having been at her grand opening for the new location of Nana’s Chicken and Waffles. However, it seems Porsha wasn’t at the event.

Teresa Giudice shared why it’s been “so hard” for Bravo to “make a decision” about the new season’s cast of the Real Housewives of New Jersey – amid reports that she wasn’t asked back. The star also addressed if she’d consider filming the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City as Whitney Rose’s friend.
According to new reports, Melissa Gorga, Dolores Catania, and Margaret Josephs were the only original stars to film test footage with newbie castmates for the upcoming season. One source claimed that Teresa likely won’t film at all.
On Teresa’s Turning The Tables podcast, the star threw shade at certain costars.
“Basically, they were all trying to ice me out [so that] maybe then Teresa won’t come back,” she explained. “So that’s why it’s been so hard for — I guess Bravo — to make a decision [on] what they want to do.”
Her guest Christian Gray Snow added, “[When Housewives’] focus now is, ‘Hey we gotta make sure that we’re not doing this in this scene and we’re not talking to her in this scene,’ it’s like, now we’re focusing on the wrong thing. The self-producing is … what’s caused problems on these shows.”
“Right,” said Teresa. “And that’s why I feel like Salt Lake City is amazing. I’ve been watching Salt Lake City. I’ve been learning a lot. Yes, so I’ve been reflecting and learning and watching, and we’ll see what the future holds.”
Teresa hinted that she’d consider filming RHOSLC as Whitney’s friend.
“I’m so excited [for the new season] because I love Whitney so much. I’m like, I need to come on Salt Lake City. I’m like, ‘I’ll definitely have your back over there, girl.’ I’m like, ‘And you need to come to Jersey and have my back,'” said Teresa. “That’s my girl in Salt Lake City. I love Whitney. In Miami, I love Alexia and Larsa, even Larsa because Larsa and I did House of Villains together. Yes. And then in Dubai, it’s Chanel. I love Chanel and Taleen because I bonded with them. So I have girls in like a lot of cities.”
