A new era of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” begins tonight.
Season 16 of the long-running Bravo series will begin, for the first time since Season 2, without Kandi Burruss. She announced that she’d be leaving the show after 14 seasons at the 2024 Grammys, just months after it was announced that Bravo was exploring rebooting the series with a primarily new cast.
The seven-person cast will consist of some returning favorites, like Porsha Williams and Phaedra Parks, and some brand-new faces.
