Jeannie Mai Calls Rumor Of Joining 'RHOA' 'Crazy': 'There Is No Door'

There were rumors that another famous housewife would join "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" in the person of "The Real" co-host Jeannie Mai Jenkins.

Jenkins, who is married to rapper Jeezy, recently addressed the speculations. It turns out her casting is far from happening, and she explained why.

The 14th season of the famous Bravo show took off with new castmates getting their peaches, including Marlo Hampton and Sanya Richards-Ross.

On Wednesday,  May 11, Jenkins appeared on a candid episode of "The Real" to debunk rumors she would be getting a peach on "RHOA."

The TV personality, who welcomed a daughter Monaco with Jeezy on January 11, put a pin on the speculations, saying:

"That was crazy. I literally was just over here having a baby, and I'm hearing these rumors. I was like, 'Where? How am I going to go from this into that because that's a full-time job."

Kenya Moore said she heard the rumor and believed that Jenkins would fill the space left behind by former cast member Kandi Burruss.

The "How Do I Look?" Alum replied that the chatter was nothing but a total rumor as she and her management have not spoken to anybody from Bravo about joining the reality TV series.

Despite that, Moore wished her friend would join her in the series. She said, "Girl, you would make an excellent Housewife. You could come on as my friend."

Unfortunately for the housewife, Jenkins maintained her resolve, saying, "The door is closed. It's sealed. There wasn't a door, to begin with. It was a wall."

The "Steampunkd" star has a full plate working as a co-host and being a first-time mother to her infant. 

Fans may not see Jenkins's relationship with Jeezy and their daughter on "RHOA," but she keeps them in the loop with touching social media updates.

The Blast disclosed that the new mother broke the news of her childbirth in a heartwarming Instagram update from the hospital.

The post contained an image of Monaco's crib, which housed a footprint-patterned blanket and a sticker that read “Baby Jenkins."

The lovestruck mother gushed in the caption of her post, "I asked God for a life of love and happiness. He sent me my family. Baby Jenkins is here."

Fans and friends flocked to the comments section with good wishes for the new parents. One comment read, "Congratulations, gorgeous [heart emoji] over the moon for you guys!"

Another gushed that the newest family member is already so fortunate, writing, "AWWWW!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU…THAT CHILD IS BLESSED!!!!"

Celebrity pals, including Cynthia Bailey, Tamera Mowry, Nischelle Turner, and many more, also sent the couple their love and best wishes.

Bringing a child to the world is no easy feat, as seen when Jenkins got candid on social media about how she was getting back on her feet after childbirth.

In January, The Blast disclosed that the style expert expressed that becoming a mother was “the most exhilarating moment” in her life, but nothing could have prepared her to raise a baby.

Jenkins took to her personal Instagram page with a photo of herself sporting a pair of grey ‘Fridamom’ disposable briefs as she healed from childbirth. 

The "How Do I Look: Asia?" alum opened up about postpartum healing in the caption of her post, writing:

"While being a new mom is the most exhilarating moment I have ever experienced in my life— nothing prepared me for postpartum. NOTHING. No book I’ve read, the advice I’ve gotten that could have compiled ALL the things I’d need just to sit, lay down, walk, or even hold our baby,” Jeannie captioned the pictures."

Jenkins noted that she took her photo only a few days earlier and praised the briefs brand for their comfort. She concluded:

"The 4th trimester has been the hardest trimester yet, but I’m a happy, healing mom over here."

Fans and friends supported the star in the comments. A user agreed about the briefs, writing, "I loved those. Someone gifted me them at my baby shower, and omg. The best gift."

 A mom gave her a word of advice about navigating postpartum life as a new parent, typing, “Take your time. Everyone’s journey will be different. Ask for help when you’re feeling overwhelmed. You’ve got this."
