"Plot twist ... I'm single," Garcelle's post read. "I doubt you'll stay single for long. You're drop dead gorgeous," one fan wrote in the comments section of her post. "Your next move will be your best move beautiful. This is why I do not post pics of anyone that I don’t have a marriage license with on social media. Thangs can change quick!

"I am excited and proud to be joining the cast of such a wildly popular and beloved show like The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. As a working actor who has been in the industry for some time, it’s exhilarating to have the opportunity to delve into a new chapter in the entertainment spectrum. As the first African-American Housewife in the Beverly Hills franchise, I am honored and humbled by this awesome opportunity to exemplify the fact that Black Girl Magic lives and thrives in every zip code!” she said in a statement to The Daily Dish at the time.
The Coming to America star recently went into further detail about bringing some diversity to the cast. "It's about time. I mean, we're in every zip code, are we not? So, hello! I've always watched the show, but to be in it and see all the crazy all around me? So fun. So fun," she told E! News.
