When the ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ returns for season 9, it will be doing so sans Nneka Ihim.
For, the newcomer has announced her departure from the hit Bravo show – after just one season.
Full story below…
In a statement issued to PEOPLE, the 36-year-old confirmed her exit saying:
“I will not be returning for season 9 of RHOP.
At this point, after multiple failed fertility procedures, I have decided to make expanding my family my ultimate priority. Thank you to the fans that have supported me along the way this season, especially regarding my difficult IUI turned IVF journey, and the stigma surrounding infertility. All of the kind remarks have genuinely kept me uplifted and have fueled my determination to continue to share my story.”
Continuing, Ihim – who feuded with fellow Nigerian castmate Wendy Osefo – added:
“Sincere appreciation to Bravo and Truly Original for the opportunity. [I] built lifetime friendships with some incredible women through this experience.
As a true resident of Potomac proper, 20854, just know that I’ll be seeing you all again soon.”
Ihim’s RHOP exit comes on the heels of Candiace Dillard-Bassett also announcing her decision to leave the show and Robyn Dixon‘s admission that she was “fired.”
Season 9 of the ‘Potomac’ is currently taping as of writing.
Thats a shame. I liked her
