When it comes to Kandi Burruss, we all know she can find a check to cash, and it seems the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree.
Though Real Housewives of Atlanta is no longer Kandi koated, it seems her oldest daughter Riley is joining the Bravo family. According to PEOPLE, Riley will be one of several cast members for a new show titled Making It In Manhattan. The full cast has not been released but it is rumored to include Ming Lee Simmons, Damon Dash‘s daughter, Ava Dash, a host of influencers and several children of popular housewives across franchises.
Though Kandi has had her share of shows on Bravo, the singer songwriter says that she “couldn’t be happier” since making the decision to leave RHOA after being the only original cast member to stay on the show since its inception.
“Not that I don’t like the show, I just feel like when I left, I had done 14 seasons straight. No other Housewife had done that,” she says. “So a lot of times, I was filming all year-round reality, and that can be a little draining.”

Earlier this month, Kandi appeared on two episodes of Hulu’s Reasonable Doubt as recovering addict Eboni Phillips, a role she received after meeting the show’s creator on a flight.
“I thought that was just she and I having women a business talk, supporting each other type of thing,” Burrus said. “I didn’t think it was going to be an opportunity for us to work together so soon. I was thinking maybe off in the future, maybe she could think of me if they had something, but it was immediately after that her team hit my team and they asked me to come in for this role. I was so excited.”
Kandi and her husband, Todd Tucker, have also joined the production team for the newest Broadway revival of Shakespeare’s Othello starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal.
