Transgender Model Amiyah Scott Joins ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ Cast

Scott’s addition to the show is another huge step for the transgender community, who has been spotlighted thanks to Caitlyn Jenner’s transition and her docu-series I Am Cait.

Her Twitter descriptive: “The Unicorn with an invisible horn”.

“Amiyah Scott is gon’ shake things up on RHOA”.

Sources also confirmed the new cast members to TheWrap.

After Leakes left, RHOA producers rehired Sheree Whitfield full time and added Marlo Hampton in a supporting capacity, the same role occupied by Porsha Williams.

And TMZ further claims Kim Fields, best known for “The Facts Of Life”, will be another season 8 newbie. Other current stars Kandi Burruss, Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, and Phaedra Parks will all likely continue as main cast members.

She says she was: “born in Manhattan, New York but raised in New Orleans, Louisiana” and describes herself as: ‘the ultimate Southern Belle with an “Up North” twist’. Last year, Jordan was going to be a guest at first but was upgraded while Demetria McKinney and Williams were downgraded partway through production.

Goodbye NeNe Leakes, and hello Amiyah Scott! Bravo loves this speculation.

It keeps the show in people’s minds during the off season.
