Cynthia Bailey Makes a Pledge: NO MORE MARRIAGE!
It is all over for Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas.
This is not news, of course, The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member confirmed the end of her six-year marriage back in July.
Speaking to E! News about estranged husband Peter Thomas at the time, Bailey said:
“I don’t want it to be an ugly divorce because I still love Peter. I just don’t want to be married to Peter anymore. It’s as simple as that.”
That does make it sound pretty simple.
And amicable.
Are there any hard feelings between Bailey and Thomas? It doesn’t sound that way.
“I still root for him. I want him to win. I still love and support him. We are just not going to be married anymore,” Bailey added this summer.
And the reality star makes a similar point in a new interview with Us Weekly.
“I will always love Peter and have his back,” Bailey told the tabloid, explaining of her marriage:
“There was a lot of internal unhappiness. I wasn’t at peace.”
Those who watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online have been familiar with pair’s troubles for awhile, ever since Bailey joined the Bravo franchise.
Last season, for example, a video came out in June that depicted Thomas kissing and touching a female clubgoer at his Charlotte business, Bar One.
“He was just being social,” explains Bailey, defending her ex-lover.
And she continues to defend Thomas, despite the many cheating allegations that have circulated around him over the past few years.
“I believe with every ounce of oxygen and bone in my body that Peter never had sex with another woman,” Bailey tells Us Weekly.
Way back in Season 3, Bailey’s mother and sister turned on Thomas.
They alleged he was unreliable and riding her wealth and fame, strongly protesting the union right up until the couple exchanged vows.
These days, Bailey acknowledges that she placed her daughter’s well-being over that of her husband and says she was never “wife material.”
And she won’t be again, Bailey vows.
“I will never be in a relationship again where it will take a lawyer for me to walk away. I will never marry again,” she says.
Bailey and Thomas hope to finalize their divorce in January. Beyond that, when it comes to her dating life, Bailey isn’t sure what to predict.
“There’s something very scary about turning 50 and being by yourself,” she admits. “I just have to believe everything will be OK.”

Cynthia Bailey: Is She Leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta?
As previously reported, the marriage between Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas is over.
But might the relationship between Bailey and the show that made her famous also be coming to an end?
Yes, according to a rumor started by some blog called “Tamara Tattles.”
It states that Bailey is moving on from Thomas is ways that go beyond mere emotion; she has also put the home she used to share with her ex-husband on the market.
The four bedroom, four bathroom residence was listed this week for $ 699,000.
Where might Bailey end up if she moves permanently away from Atlanta?
She could try out Los Angeles, where she already spends a great deal of time due to the presence there of her daughter, Noelle.
And she may also just drop off the celebrity gossip radar for a bit, relocating to her relatively new lake house.
Bailey has been spending the past several days there, happily sharing gorgeous snapshots on her Instagram account.
“So excited #viewfrommywindow #backyard #peace #serenity #Godswork #beautiful #1life2live #myhappy50tome #loveatfirstsight #lakebailey #baileyboat #gonefishin,” she wrote as the caption to one photo of the water.
Just “the Lake,” she penned in regard to the picture above.
It should basically go without saying that Bravo cameras won’t venture out to film Bailey in either of these locales.
You may need to watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online next year without Cynthia Bailey as a part of the main cast.
Do you really think she’ll walk away from the spotlight, though? From her salary?
Will Bravo executives even want her back if the drama between her and Thomas can no longer be a storyline?
So many questions, so few answers at the moment.
But here’s a look back at various Housewives who have tried to move on from the franchise in one way or another…

Cynthia Bailey Confirms Peter Thomas Divorce :(
Cynthia Bailey has made it simple and straightforward:
She no longer wants to be Mrs. Peter Thomas.
This much was made obvious in late May when Bailey confirmed to The Daily Dish that she and her husband were separated.
He was residing in Charlotte and she was living in Atlanta and it’s difficult to maintain a happy marriage from afar.
Therefore, the news that Bailey and Thomas are now filing for divorce is not exactly shocking.
But it still is news.
Speaking to E! News this week, Bailey said the time apart has been helpful for both sides of the estranged couple, adding of the legal proceedings ahead:
“I don’t want it to be an ugly divorce because I still love Peter. I just don’t want to be married to Peter anymore. It’s as simple as that.
“I still root for him. I want him to win. I still love and support him. We are just not going to be married anymore.”
Bailey and Thomas have been married for nearly six years.
They actually exchanged vows in front of Bravo cameras.
But those who watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online are familiar with their issues of late.
For example, there was talk earlier this year that Porsha Williams slept with Thomas; which, even if untrue, caused tension between Cynthia and Peter.
Bailey, however, is quick NOT to blame the reality series that made her famous.
“Regardless of if we were on the show or not, our issues would have happened anyways because it’s just personalities and it’s just chemistry and it’s also compatibility,” she told E!.
“I am really optimistic that in the end, after we take some time, we are going to be friends at the end of this because that was the start.”
She concludes as follows:
“I am really at peace with my relationship with Peter because I really feel like I gave it all I could give.
“I can’t speak for every women on the Earth, but I know what I am able to do and I feel like I have done as much as I can do and still be happy and still respect my husband and still love my husband.
“I can be a better friend to him at this point in the relationship than I can as his wife.”

Cynthia Bailey Separates from Husband: Get the Details!
Cynthia Bailey has put her marriage on hold.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star confirmed this unfortunate news to The Daily Dish, saying in an interview of she and her husband, Peter Thomas:
“Peter and I are separated. He lives in Charlotte, and I live in Atlanta.”
Those who watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online are well aware that this relationship has been challenged over the years due to rumors of infidelity and sexual frustrations.
Bailey and Thomas got married in 2011…
… on Bravo, of course.
The wedding took place on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 3 finale.
“I am definitely taking some time to myself to figure out how I want to move forward,” Bailey added.
“I don’t want to rush into anything, so I think this time apart is good for us.
“And I think the space apart, I think he can appreciate it as well. I think it gives people time to think and process and just move forward in a way that really is healthy for everyone involved.”
Last year, Bailey told People Magazine that “marriage is tough,” praising her husband for his willingness to stick with the relationship despite its various highs and lows.
“It’s been a great ride,” she said back then.
“The show has more than tested our relationship, but I think we’re good. And hey, God forbid we don’t make it, we know we tried! We can walk away with no guilt because we know we tried it in ever way.”
That is a healthy attitude at least.
But the union could only last so long with chatter out there about Porsha Williams sleeping with Thomas.
“I will say that Peter are not in a great place right now,” Bailey told Bravo’s Reality Checked with Amy Phillips.
“Honestly, I don’t know what’s going to happen with us right now, we’re still trying to figure it out. But, you know, it’s complicated.”

Cynthia Bailey Visits Kardashian Plastic Surgeon, Shares GRAPHIC Video
WARNING: If needles give you the heebies, you may want to avoid clicking "play" on the video below.
Because even the needle-brave might shudder when they see Cynthia Bailey take it in the eye during a cosmetic procedure.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star visited Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Simon Ourian, the same doc who treats the Kardashians, to get her eyes done.
The procedure is said to get rid of dark circles under the eyes in less than 15 minutes.
But those 15 minutes seem kinda gruesome.
Okay, kinda really gruesome.
In the video below, Bailey receives a series of injections around the eyes, some of which come very close to the actual eyeball.
And judging by how calm she appears, the woman either has a high tolerance for sharp objects coming at her face or she was on some awesome sedatives.
Dr. Ourian, who shared the video to his Instagram page, describes the pain level for the hyaluronate injections as "none to moderate" and involves only topical numbing to dull discomfort.
If you"re brave enough to endure the injections, it"ll set you back between $ 2,900 and $ 5,900, depending on your individual circumstances.
Here"s how she looks now:
Bailey shared the pic above of herself on vacation on Puerto Rico during the Memorial Day weekend.
We"re still not sure of the status of Bailey"s marriage to Peter Thomas, but the two have been the subject of divorce rumors of late.
There was some speculation that co-star Porsha Williams slept with Thomas, although those rumors were later debunked.

Peter Thomas to Cynthia Bailey: I DID NOT Cheat on You!
Fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta cringed at the moment Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas exchanged vows.
With his shady financial drama, inflated ego, and wandering eye, anyone who watched the show could clearly see that Peter Thomas was in the fast lane to breaking Cynthia’s heart.
And, as expected, here we are wondering (again) if Cynthia and Peter are done for good.
In a recent episode of RHOA, they couple settled their differences and appeared to being moving forward. Even costar Porsha Williams said, “They both really do love each other and really do want to work it out. I think that’s what they both want.”
However, over the weekend, the martial sh*t hit the fan once more after Peter posted a picture on Instagram of himself with two women.
In caption of the picture, he denied having the affair. But the photo begs the question, why is he still with other women???
“Last night I took My General and assistant manager of Sports One/Bar One to the Jill Scott concert, and because of reckless accusation made by other, ever nosy citizens is now a blogger… come on people, REALLY!!!!!” he caption the pic.
“If I am with one of my Gay friends, would it be that I’m now gay, and I’m also cheating???”
Over the years, Cynthia has been in denial over the state of her marriage. But after Peter was caught cheating on video, things have started to unravel.
The video busted Peter canoodling with an employee at his restaurant. At first, Cynthia called the behavior inappropriate. Since then, she has been more honest about her feelings.
“I just know that I’m unhappy,” she said on the show. “And what I equate to being unhappy is maybe I’m just not in love with him anymore.”
We just hope she will get honest enough to leave his sorry a**.

RHOA: Cynthia Bailey Flips Out on Porsha Williams
You try to keep the peace, and it blows up in your pretty little face.
In an attempt to smooth over a battle between Shamea Morton and Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey found herself butting heads with Porsha Williams on last night"s The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
It was like something out of a Real Housewives parody when Moore called out Morton for saying there was water in her tester bottles at Moore"s hair care launch party.
Morton was unapologetic, and when Moore declared herself a "very successful, proud black woman," Morton feigned happiness and clapped.
"I"m so proud of you," Morton teased in the video on Radar. "And congratulations, Miss America."
Well, then.
Moore walked over to the captain and asked him to escort Morton off the boat. He was probs like, "seriously?"
Bailey got up to try and convince Moore that things got out of hand, but she was taunted by her castmates in the process.
Kandi Burress and Williams teased Bailey, calling her Moore"s "best friend." Williams took the teasing further, calling Bailey a "bitch."
Oh hell.
"Don’t call me a b–ch. I’m not calling you out of your name,” Bailey turned around and said to Williams.
Things got super out-of-hand and in a teaser for next week"s episode, we see Williams being restrained on her back.
Watch the video for a full dose of crazy.

Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas: Is This The End?
It’s kind of hard to watch a reality TV couple you like fighting like this.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas have been married for five years, but a recent preview on Radar shows more cracks in the relationship.
“You and I know that there is a disconnect between us,” Bailey told Thomas. “So we need to figure out what our plan is because we can’t keep going like this.”
“Our problem is that we made no time for each other,” Thomas said.
“I feel like I made a lot of sacrifices to be here,” Bailey continued. “I uprooted myself from my home in New York City with my child and my nanny and moved here because I met a man named Peter Thomas who I thought was great.”
Thomas, who opened a bar in North Carolina, was caught flirting with another woman in this season’s premiere episode.
“The wedding was a challenge,” Bailey said of their televised nuptials. “The challenges started pretty much when I got here.”
Thomas shot back.
“What I’m trying to say is the essence of us got lost,” he shouted. “It’s not my fault—it’s our fault.”
“I feel like we’re exactly where we are now where we were five years ago,” Bailey said. “Some things are better. Then, maybe we weren’t making no money, but the love life was better. We had a better relationship during that time.
“I just know that I am unhappy, and what I equate to being unhappy is well maybe I’m just not in love with him anymore,” Bailey told the cameras.”
Arggh then it gets tough.
“I just want to know, when did you stop loving me?” an emotional Thomas asked.
Porsha Williams, for her part, thinks they’ll work it out.
“I don’t think that reality TV played a part in their relationship at all,” Williams told Entertainment Tonight. “They have a pretty strong foundation, and they’re human, and they’re just going through things. And they’re brave enough to just, you know, let the camera be a part of that.”
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays at 8/7 central on Bravo.

Porsha Williams on Cynthia Bailey Marriage: Work That Sh!t Out!!
Peter Thomas, husband of The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Cynthia Bailey, has never been much of a fan favorite.
His arrogant attitude and inflated ego have made him the subject of not just criticism among the show’s fans, but also from the show’s cast members.
To no one’s surprise, in the first episode of this season’s RHOA, Cynthia became privy to a video that shows Peter Thomas at a bar flirting with another woman.
Finally, she admitted that she is not attracted her husband and that she is annoyed that is constantly traveling to Charlotte, North Carolina, to open another Bar One location.
Sure, they have marriage problems. That’s been evident since Peter first joined the show. However, it hasn’t been clear what is truly going on behind the scenes when the cameras stop rolling.
Luckily, we have Porsha Williams, who is wiling to dish Cynthia’s personal business..
There have been rumors that Cynthia is preparing to file for divorce, but Porsha claims those rumors are not true. Porsha told Radar Online, “They both really do love each other and really do want to work it out.”
She added, “I think that’s what they both want.”
We have to question why Porsha would even have the audacity to comment on Cynthia and Peter’s marriage.
Porsha has a long history of conflict with both Cynthia and Peter. Like the time when Cynthia kicked Porsha during an epic housewives throw down.
She even says herself, “Cynthia and Peter haven’t always been my best friends because they kind of delved and got really involved in my personal relationship as they both did with Phaedra‘s personal relationship.”
So it makes the most sense to do the same to them? Portia definitely isn’t known for being the brightest housewife in the neighborhood.
She added, “So I haven’t been really close to her to be like that person who she confides in.”
Porsha, who divorced football player Kordell Stewart, offered a piece of advice to Cynthia:
“I have told her before, ‘Over anything, work it out,” she stated. “A marriage is worth it. You love that person and you are going have those months in a row, but try to work it out.”
Still, Porsha understands that Cynthia also needs to take care of herself.
“It’s got to be worked out in way that’s still going to be good for you,” Williams said.
She added, “You don’t want be naïve in a situation with anybody, so you have to stand up for yourself and take those blinders off and deal with the issue.”
Although Porsha doesn’t believe Cynthia and Peter are headed for divorce, she has a suspiciously high amount of advice related to divorce.
“I’ve been through a divorce—I’m not saying I’m necessarily head over heels for my ex, but I don’t wish it on anybody,” she said. “I don’t care if you feel like he’s your worst enemy or she’s your worst enemy. I just feel like marriage is worth it.”
She ended her weird moment of advice with “I’ve definitely wished them well.”
At least Porsha can start more sh*t that just rumors. Currently, she is preparing to launch her own Naked Lingerie line and is developing her Go Naked Hair brand.
