Real Housewives of Atlanta Rumors, Cast and Updates: Leakes comes to Porsha's Defense after she is Demoted to Friend Status

Earlier this month we hear rumors the star of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Nene Leakes became the highest paid reality TV star earning at least 1.5 million dollars per season, quite a salary of course. However, there are reports that even that huge pay increase may not be enough to keep her on the hit Bravo series. Allegedly she quit the show because of her friend Porsha Williams. During an interview, she explained that Bravo should not have acted to demote Williams to the friend of the house status after the tussle she had with Kenya. The other reason is that Leakes claims she actually has a right to be on the show while some of the other housewives on the show are not from the area.

According to Leakes, "Porsha is a real Georgia peach."It's always kind of sad to see that other women who are not real Georgia peaches are now being on the cast of a show called The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Williams first announced her demotion on the show earlier this month. The funny thing is that it came as a surprise even to her. She explained in a statement picked up by Us Weekly, "After a long season of filming, and giving my all, I was blindsided by the announcement from the network that I was demoted from 'Housewife Status,' but would remain on the show in a 'Friend' capacity."

However, it seems that the producers and show creators are going into cover mode. The producer of Real Housewives of Atlanta, Andy Cohen said in a statement that Williams' lackluster storyline this upcoming was one of the main reasons for her demotion. Cohen claimed they went into it thinking she would be a full housewife, holding a peach and all. Allegedly, they have not gotten enough of a storyline to merit this and of course they claimed they hoped she would stay on with the show.
