"Real Housewives of Atlanta" regular Walter Jackson has revealed he was faking his relationship with Kenya Moore for the cameras. As one of the newcomers on Season 5, the former Miss USA caused a ruckus as early as the second episode, prompting conflict to quickly arise among the cast. Her love interest on the show, Jackson, is now claiming that their relationship on the docu-series was merely for show, because Moore wanted to stir up a controversy.

In recent episodes, Moore touts Jackson as the love of her life and eggs him on to propose to her and start a family. However, Jackson constantly shoots down her advances, and now he's revealing why. He tells Atlanta's V-103 morning radio show, "We did date for three months three years ago and lost touch. In April, she texted me and said she was coming to Atlanta. I was kind of surprised. She said, 'I'm going to be doing this show. What do you think of reality TV?"'

And while he was apprehensive about signing on as her faux boyfriend, Jackson says Moore insisted it would be "just like acting." Jackson eventually agreed to be on the program but was never swayed into going through with her marriage proposal ideas. Moore later claimed that the reason Jackson didn't marry her was because he's gay, but he denied her accusations on the radio show. He said, "I'm well established here. Gay has never been in the block. Why she would say that, I don’t know ... I'm not here to bash the show. The producers had no idea we were faking it. It was our secret."

 

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.

The show is so fake this year with that Kenya character trying so hard to still all the thunder with her ridiculous antics. How stupid do they think the viewers are? There is nothing real about this show! Terrible worst year yet!

These shows are all scripted, that is why they are called reality tv. No one in their right minds act like these chicks act and they are giving black women in general a very bad perspective. I have stopped watching the show!

There are only 3  Real House Wives on the show and 4 that are making a true name for themselves! Can you guess who?

I think that there comes a point in everyone's life where they need to define who they are as men/women. They also need to know in their hearts if they are a good person , or a bad person. At this point they can act on their life choices. I have chosen to be a good person, and a good Christian. In stating that, I have never watch the show. Regardless if I have or have not, I will chose to hold her up in prayers, that the Lord shows her his will for her and her happiness, as apposed to trying to blow out her candle to make mine appear brighter

Is ANYONE on any of these 'Housewives' shows even married?

 

I don't watch, so I wouldn't know who is or who is not married.  But, I thought the very definition of a 'housewife' was someone who was already married... and yet, it seems, so many of these women are single and/or dating.  LOL

I don't like Kenya Moore at all. I think she was a poor choice for "The Real Houswives of Atlanta". Her role in the show is like her personality "Fake" so everyting else that comes along with her is fake. I'm not surprised by this article.

The only true HOUSEWIVES show is NEW JERSEY!

 

And they have actually ruined friendships and families by airing conflicts and bad behavior that probably would have been nipped in the bud had there not been cameras an US magazine to egg it on.

Houswives producers need to know if you are going to have a "black" Housewives- none of the women can be TOO pretty. If they are too "hot" {think Playboy, Maxim, Miss Universe-type} they will be hated on the spot by your key viewers (sadly other black women) and what works for other obnoxious, fake, vain, vicious HOUSEWIVES will be an outrage and too much to take from the HOT one. If you do have a super pretty one, she needs to either be toned down, slighly past her prime, or fairly well behaved.

Kenya is mild by Housewives of Beverley Hills and Miami standards.She might actually do better there- but her love interests would be tricky to  write in (its mostly fake- you guys- you know it!)

 

[You can have cute black HOUSEWIVES and uberstylish, perfect hair and make-up types - but that is the limit.]

Kenya haters:

Explain how she ruined a show that had Nene screaming and fighting and Kim basically prostituting herself to "Big Papa" and prowling for other "supporters"- while never working and buying her daughters $2,000 purses with the trick money?

How did Kenya cross a line for you?

Who thought this mess was not fake? Are you living under a rock. All these ladies do it for the camera!!! Ratings, ratings!! As for Kenya, she is no different from, the bully, NeNe. and her lacky, Cynthia. Kim the whore/lesiban. Phadera, the fake southern bell. Candy, the sex selling  maniac.This show is beyound trashy, and all Housewives shows, DUMB DOWN AMERICANS, PERIOD. Stop watching televsion, that is dumb, stupid and serve no purpose in life. Read a book for god sake!!! Do not blame the producers for putting this TRASH on, most of them are Gay. lol

BLACK WOMEN!

Stop dogging other black women for being pretty.

Kenya IS an obnoxious drama queen. SO?! They all are on the WIVES shows! OMG! Has anyone seen BEVERLY HILLS?!That is what these shows require- otherwise you don't get asked back!

Stop acting like Kenya is the WORST. You hated her from jump. Thus the "she's no role model, she made single women look bad....oh and she aint pretty." REALLY?

If you watch any HOUSEWIVES shows for class and role model or examples of single women- you are stupid.

 

{I'm sorry. I hate it when black women gleefully attack a sista with better looks, more money, longer hair, whatever- then try to justify it with crap about class and role models.}

I like many others do not care for Kenya's antics. Kim....what a liar. I'm still trying to understand why she was the lone white woman in a circle of black women? The other shows do not include black women in the all white women circle. When I glance at other housewives shows, I observe those females behaving just as immature as these women. So I can't say it's black women looking classless but women as a whole.

ALL THE HOUSEWIVES SHOWS AER FAKE AND ALL THE HOUSEWIVES BOTOXED, VAIN, SELF ABSORBED....

why is Kenya worse? What made anyone watch the show and like it?

** What line could Kenya cross that Nene (big mouth) or Kim (kept woman, buying her daughters $2,ooo purses)- did NOT?**

This woman live in her own world with no self respect or respect for others. Some one in her little mind made her think she is all that and a bag of chips.

Kenya give's single women a bad name begging a man to marry her , who in their right mind does such a thing except a crazy person.

KENYA, IS THE REASON I DON'T WATCH THE SHOW ANYMORE. IT WAS BAD ENOUGH WATHCING KIM AND NENE FIGHT ALL THE TIME, BUT KENYA BRINGS NOTHING TO THE SHOW. WHY THEY SIGNED HER ON IS BEYOND ME, BUT ALL SHE IS , IS TRASH!

AS FAR AS NENE IS CONCERNED SHE CALLED PEOPLE "HATERS" AND THAT IS JUST WHAT SHE IS. SHE COULD NOT STAND THAT KIM HAS A NICE HUSBAND AND WAS PREGNANT WITH A SECOND CHILD, THAT SHE HAD MOVED ON AND DID NOT WANT TO BE APART OF ALL THEIR BACKSTABBING. HATER? THAT IS WHAT NENE IS....GOOD FOR YOU KIM FOR TAKING THE HIGH ROAD.

KENYA, WILL NEVER BRING BRAVO VIEWERS. SHE IS  WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE KEPT OFF THE SHOW.

These people all need psychological evaluation. They are all so very fake. Everything seems so contrived and and over dramatic. This Kenya Moore lady appears so plastic that it is embarrassing! Yes, she is kinda pretty but then comes her personality and suddenly she turns very ugly. Nothing attractive here! Then there's the one who inserts balls in her v****a to make it tighter! What? Was that an attempt to make things salacious? TMI! Then came the drama of the Kim lady (the biggest FAKE on reality TV), who was once with Big Poppa, then became a lesbian singer (even though couldn't sing), now she is pregnant with a football player. Then all of the Real Housewives became offended because the 8 months pregnant Kim lady could not go with them out of the country on a vacation. WHAT A MESS! Everyone on the show is a fake with the exception of Nene, even though she contributes to all the drama, I like her because she is a star with attitude. Bravo needs to clean up the show. I know that it is all about ratings but there comes a time when things cross that line of distasteful.

I... can't stand her anyway.  I have no idea why she thinks she's all that and her personality has much to be desired. If she were my Granddaughter she'd have to see a therapist to deal with what she claims about her Mother saying she never had a child.  She may have a title from 20 years ago but she is not a very nice person.
