Porsha Williams does not agree with Kenya Moore and behavior during Season 16 of the "Real Housewives of Atlanta."
Bravo released the highly anticipated trailer on January 30, and based on the three-minute teaser, watchers are in for a wild ride. Along with Williams' exciting return to the network, the trailer also flashed a quick clip of Moore, which let fans know that she would be seen at the beginning of the season.
Loyal Bravoverse members began questioning whether her scenes would be cut from the upcoming batch of episodes after news she departed the series in the middle of filming took over the internet.
During the sneak peek of the upcoming season, Porsha Williams addressed Kenya Moore's actions during the show, and she didn't seem pleased.
Porsha Williams Says Kenya Moore Went 'To Hell' In New Trailer
While season 16 of "RHOA" was filming, news broke that Moore was released from the cast after an incident with newcomer Brit Eady. According to reports, Moore shocked guests at her beauty salon during an event when she allegedly showcased sexually explicit images of her co-star on poster boards.
Although she initially denied the allegations, the trailer addressed them and showcased a montage of clips during and after the event. In one video, Moore, who joined the series in Season 5, displayed what appeared to be a photo of her castmate on a poster board. "So, who is this ho?" the reality star asked her friends. "Brit Eady is her name."
Watchers saw Eady breaking down in tears in another clip before the trailer showed Williams saying it was Moore's "choice to twirl on down to hell."
Kenya Moore First Denied Allegations
Following the reports that Moore allegedly engaged in revenge porn, the former Miss USA addressed the accusations on her social media accounts. Although she couldn't say much at the time due to the network's investigation into the matter, Moore assured her fans that the claims were untrue.
In one post, the Bravo veteran told her followers not to believe everything they read online before reminding them that the "truth always comes to light." She also addressed the claims that she engaged in revenge porn, writing she'd "never" stoop that low.
"I have never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail."
Later, Moore, who has been involved in her fair share of problematic storylines on the "Real Housewives," teased that she'd be looking forward to the day she could share her side of the story. "I have always been vindicated," she wrote.
Housewives Speak On Kenya Moore And Her Moment
After the rumors about Moore's incident on the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" took off online in the summer of 2024, several people began chiming in to share their opinions. Not only were fans split down the middle, but some of Moore's Atlanta co-stars were, too.
During an earlier conversation about the news, one of Moore's best friends, Kandi Burruss, who appeared on the show from Seasons 2 through 15, backed the controversial reality star with much support. According to Burruss, potential cast members know what they're signing up for when they join a "Housewives" show.
"The show is wild, right?" Burruss asked. "We've had some crazy things happen on our show."
She went on to say that although Moore's actions may not have been "the nicest thing to do," the latter "didn't [lie] about somebody."
"The ladies on our show and on different shows on reality TV, when you say something to someone, or you make a threat, or you come at somebody in a negative way, you do not get to determine how strong the shade or whatever it is that's coming back at you. So that is my thing," Burruss finished.
However, not all of Moore's ATL castmates agree. Former Housewife Kim Zolciak also shared her thoughts on the situation, calling Moore "the lowest of the low."
"I've always thought people can, you know, get angry, say stuff, and be mean, but like when your character's so flawed, I feel like Kenya's character is so flawed that I think it's a great decision to have her off the show."

Despite the hype surrounding season 16 of "RHOA," fans were surprisingly underwhelmed by the trailer. "Why is it not hitting like it used to?" someone asked. "This could not have been the same season we were waiting two years for," another wrote. "This trailer is very meh..." a third commented. "[I'm] hoping the build-up is worth it."
Season 16 of the Atlanta iteration will air on Bravo on March 9 and will feature seven full-time cast members and one guest.
