Season 7 newbies Claudia Jordan and Demetria McKinney are reportedly out for Season 8. And in the biggest shock ahead of the new season, RHOA's self-proclaimed queen bee Leakes also announced her departure from the series.
In an interview with People, Leakes said she quit the show in order to pursue other career opportunites. However, a source speaking to RadarOnline.com said the RHOA star was actually fired from the series due to her bad attitude and refusal to work with her castmates and the show’s production staff. "Bravo allowed her to say that she wanted to leave but really Bravo was the one cutting her,” the insider said.
Jordan's reported firing and Leakes' departure were a few of the unexpected twists we've seen heading into Season 8. But many fans are now curious to see which RHOA lady will become the show’s breakout star now that two of the show’s biggest personalities will no longer be around!
