When the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ returns for its 13th season in the Fall, it’ll be back with a number of new faces.

As reported, actress Drew Sidora and YouTuber LaToya Ali have boarded the Bravo hit as part of a shake-up that has seen the departure of Eva Marcille and allegedly Nene Leakes too.

With filming well underway, longtime cast-member Cynthia Bailey has opened up about the “fresh meat” and more.

Her words below…

When quizzed by Us Weekly about having new blood in the mix, Bailey said:

“So far, I’m liking the fresh meat. But it’s still early in the game. So we’ll see, we’ll see. It’s always interesting what happens by the time we get to the end. So I think it’s good that we brought some other ladies in. I’ll always love the ladies that are here.”

Getting into specifics, she said of Ali:

“I don’t really know what the age difference is, but LaToya seems to be a little younger. So she’s a little firecracker. She’s one of those people that says any and everything, but she’s a lot of fun. She can probably be in trouble at the reunion because she says everything. She [is] gonna have some explaining. But I love her spirit. I love her energy.”

On Sidora, she added:

 “She’s in a marriage, she has kids. She’s been in the industry a long time as an actress. She’s actually done a lot of work with my baby’s daddy, Leon [Robinson]. Like, she’s played his love interest quite a few times.”

We’re buzzed for RHOA season 13 and the changes incoming. Are you?
