‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ season 8: Will NeNe Leakes, Porsha Williams return?

What's next -Tonight marks the end of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” at the moment, but there is still plenty of potential for the show moving forward. Do you really think Bravo will even think about canceling something that has been for a while one of their biggest hits? It’s not happening now or anytime in the near future. After the end of tonight’s episode, though, we are going to be hiatus when it comes to new material.

Now, the question now is who is going to be coming back? NeNe Leakes’ status has in many ways been very much a mystery, especially since she has contemplated leaving before. However, we would have a hard time seeing her depart unless she is guaranteed a solo platform elsewhere. She is paid handsomely from it, and it does open the door to a variety of other big opportunities.

Meanwhile, a former Housewife turned recurring star in Porsha Williams would love to see her own role expand, at least based to a certain extent around what she had to say recently to OK! Magazine:

“I will if offered … I would not mind returning to the show. It’s a great opportunity. It’s a great platform and I do enjoy the friends that I have on the show, so it would be a natural progression if I were to continue on with them.”

Given the long window for filming this show, we imagine that there will be a whole lot more news on the subject of the series’ future sooner rather than later. Stay tuned!
