A number of commenters even identified her OG standing and the way it ought to’ve made Andy Cohen and co. respect her contributions extra.
Shereé’s third exit proves that, typically, the third time is not that charming. It is also an indication that she and Housewives don’t mesh effectively, and I’ve just a few ideas on why.

Opinion: Shereé ’s OG standing ought to have by no means assured her a peach
Please permit me to share my piece earlier than you drag me like Shereé tried to do to Kandi Burruss in that now notorious Season 15 reunion scene. I like Shereé and could be mendacity if I stated she hadn’t introduced her uniqueness to the present, together with catchphrases for days and #bodygoals moments.
As beforehand talked about, she can also be an OG who will all the time go down in historical past because the one who paved the best way for Kandi, Porsha Williams, Phaedra Parks, and Kenya Moore.
After followers (myself included) complained about being disillusioned within the women throughout Season 15 for numerous causes (together with conjuring up random drama, ahem, Marlo Hampton), Bravo opted to modify RHOA up. The Season 16 solid consists of some fan favorites — Porsha, Kenya, and Shamea Morton Mwangi — in addition to new solid members Brittany Eady, Kelli Ferrell, and Angela Oakley.

In a Might 2024 Instagram Stay, Porsha shared that new solid members are “unhealthy b—-es” and convey a refreshing tackle the long-running present. Whereas OGs like Kyle Richards have confirmed they’ll dangle with the younger girlies the community brings in, Shereé may not be keen to take action.
As actuality TV followers develop bored with clearly scripted storylines and rehearsed reads, Shereé’s uncanny capacity to concurrently present us loads and nothing in any respect may not have the identical maintain it did in ’08.

There was her rumored staged relationship with Martell Holt, and her expectation that we’d consider she didn’t know her ex-husband, Bob Whitfield, had one other youngster whereas they had been collectively, one thing that “performed out” on RHOA Season 15.
Between the “enjoyable lies” like She By Shereé’s future (one phrase: Joggers) and the actual issues about her life Shereé chooses to not share, her lack of authenticity saved her from reclaiming her peach.

Shereé Whitfield could be an amazing “pal” if she put her satisfaction apart.
I actually can’t blame Shereé for being cautious about sharing particulars of her life on the present. A number of research show sharing an excessive amount of of your private life can have antagonistic results, particularly if the particular person you share with doesn’t have your greatest pursuits at coronary heart.

Underneath regular circumstances, Shereé’s need for privateness would not be a problem. Nevertheless, it is robust to take care of that privateness once you’re on a actuality present the place persons are taken with your private life. In Shereé’s case, this led to her being demoted to a “pal of” on RHOA.

Followers have debated whether or not Shereé could be higher suited as a full-time solid member or as a pal of the present. She has switched between each roles previously, changing into a “pal” in Season 8 after taking a four-year break from the present.
Shereé was ultimately promoted to a full-time solid member after Season 8 however was let go once more after Season 10.
Ebony reported in 2018 that Shereé declined a suggestion to be a pal on Season 11 of the present and reportedly declined for Season 16. Whereas Shereé has the appropriate to refuse work, being a pal on the present might nonetheless present her with good promotion and revenue.

Bravo owed Shereé a correct ‘RHOA’ sendoff.
Although I really feel Season 16 will go alongside simply effective with out Shereé, I nonetheless assume she deserved a greater exit than the one she received. Her remaining reunion was chaotic, to say the least, and plenty of of her followers needed to see closure from her and her household.
The shortage of closure might be a very good factor. Bravo has confirmed that they may by no means hesitate to name Shereé each time doable. Nevertheless, if Shereé declined that decision, she could be effectively inside her rights. You already know what they are saying: Hearth me thrice, disgrace on all of us. It’s a factor.
