'The Devil Keeps Coming Between Me And Kenya Moore'

Hampton revealed ahead of the "Real Housewives Of Atlanta" season 14 premiere that she's "crushed" by her inability to maintain a longstanding relationship with co-star Moore.

"It's sad because both of us are strong, Black, Aquarius women, same upbringing. And it's so sad that we can't just really get it together and let it last," said Hampton. "At least two years would've been nice to be friends and be happy, but some kind of way, the devil just keeps coming right in between us."

In previous episodes of the show, the pair had been seen fighting and hurling insults at each other. They have sabotaged each other's events and thrown jabs at each other. At the time, Moore crashed Hampton's wig launch while Hampton attacked Moore's relationship with her mother.

Marlo Hampton Has Tried To Be A Good Friend To Kenya Moore

Before this, the pair reconciled in season 13 with the help of a former castmate. They apologized for the previous insults and promised to lay their differences aside. However, this wasn't the case, as the season 14 trailer of the show saw them pulling at each other's hairs again.

Hampton told Insider that she's always tried to be a good friend to Moore. However, it was never reciprocated.

"I tell you no lie. I came in 10 toes down, been an amazing friend to Kenya this season. You're going to see. I was supportive like no other, loyal like no other. And it just was not reciprocated. It was not given back."

She continued, "I just, I'm like, 'What do I do? I keep trying to be so nice. So sweet. I just keep getting crushed.' So I'm just, I'm over it."

She added that they didn't have to be particularly close as she can always love from a distance.

She also mentioned that she didn't think Moore was particularly thrilled about her promotion to the role of a housewife.

"I don't feel Kenya was that happy at all," Hampton said to Page Six. "I feel deep inside that she didn't feel that I should have [a peach]. She didn't want me to be her equal or sitting on the couch next to her."

She continued, "I've been there, but she's always been able to feel like she had one on top of me, saying she was a peach holder. But I don't think she was genuine at all in being excited for me."

Marlo Hampton Previously Referred To Moore A Has-Been

Hampton also slammed Moore by calling her a "has-been" with her "new money."

This was after Moore dug at Hampton's ball, which she hosted for her fellow co-stars, so they'd better understand her fashion company, "Le'Archive."

Moore noted that Hampton missed the point by showing her clothes on a mannequin instead of through a fashion show.

Hampton responded saying, "No matter what she says bad about me, I know you are a has-been [with] your new money,"
