The Real Housewives of Atlanta returns in early November, and there have been some casting shake-ups.
After a year of suspense, Kenya Moore is off the show.
It doesn"t pay to hide your wedding from the cameras, folks. Not when you"re a Real Housewife.
But Kenya"s vacancy doesn"t just make room for new faces — it also frees up some cash.
Season 10 had some incredible ratings, so a lot of these Housewives got raises for Season 11.
How much are the stars raking in?
1. Which Housewives are making bank?
And which Housewives are just getting by? (Just kidding, even the ones making the least are still raking in the dough)
2. Kandi Burruss
Kandi has gotten a raise thanks to some savvy dramatics last season. Her $ 2 million salary has gone up to $ 2.2 million.
3. Cynthia Bailey
Cynthia is raking in $ 1.75 million, which is a six-figure raise from her previous salary of $ 1.6 million.
4. Porsha Williams
Porsha Williams got a massive bonus to go with her baby bump. Her salary went from $ 800,000 to $ 1.25 million. That is a raise of nearly half a million, folks.
5. Marlo Hampton
Marlo is technically just a “friend” of the Housewives, but few people’s friendships turn out to be so lucrative. Marlo is drawing in $ 275,000 for her recurring role.
6. NeNe Leakes
NeNe has been raking in the biggest paycheck of any of the Housewives, and that doesn’t look like it’s going to change any time soon. She was making $ 2.5 million last season. Now, she’s making $ 2.75 million. Being a living meme pays off.
