‘Real Housewives’ Producers On Filming Kenya Moore’s Troubled Marriage
Kenya Moore allowed fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta to take a deep dive into her marital problems in Season 12.
Two years after tying the knot in a private beachfront ceremony, Moore and her husband, Marc Daly, called it quits late last year, BET.com previously reported.
Their separation occurred less than a year after Moore gave birth to their daughter, Brooklyn Doris Daly, on November 4, 2018.
Prior to announcing their breakup, RHOA cameras captured their tense moments, including the blow-up that led to their separation.
RHOA producers have now revealed that Moore "never tried to put a positive spin on her marriage" this season.
“She was very open and honest about what was going on," they said, per Bravo.“It only got progressively worse as we continued filming.”
The producers continued,“It was clear in our opinion that they just didn’t get along," they said, noting that it was"definitely uncomfortable" every time Moore and Daily had to film together.
Last September, Daly and Moore issued a statement to People, in which they announced their decision to call it quits.
"It is with profound sadness that I regret to inform my fans that I am divorcing my husband Marc Daly," Moore said. "Due to recent and ongoing circumstances, I can no longer continue in the marriage. My sole concern and focus is and will always be my daughter, Brooklyn, my miracle baby. She was made in love and true commitment. I ask for our privacy to be respected moving forward."
RHOA producers claim they did not learn about Moore and Daly’s split until moments before their statement was released to the media.
During the Season 12 virtual reunion in May, Moore shared an update about the status of her relationship with her ex.
"We're working on it, we're in counseling, and Marc made a complete [180]. He just seems like he's fighting for his family, and that's all I ever wanted him to do," she said. "I had blocked him, then he started to ask to speak with me and send me emails and just become more humble in the relationship, and he just basically said he really wants to work on it."
