Real Doctor: 'RHOA' alum Sheree Whitfield announces her second honorary doctorate following Bravo exit
ATLANTA, GEORGIA: Sheree Whitfield, a former 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' star, may now refer to herself as Dr Whitfield. On Friday, June 21, she revealed on Instagram that she had received another honorary degree from Harvest Christian University in Dallas, Texas.
"I am truly honored and grateful to receive my second honorary doctorate degree!" she captioned the shot, which showed her in a graduation gown and carrying her degree.
"I want to thank God, my family, friends, & supporters for always rooting for me in this journey called “life”. I never thought I would be saying Dr. Shereé Whitfield EVER, but that goes to show you that the man above has the final say 🙌🏽. If GOD is with you, Who could be against you?" she added.
Shereé received an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from Trinity International University of Ambassadors in 2018, and she was overjoyed with the honor.
Why did Sheree Whitfield leave 'RHOA'?
According to Entertainment Weekly, the press release announcing the 'RHOA' Season 16 cast did not include Sheree's name. As of the publication of this story, Shereé had not issued an official comment or provide any other information regarding why she is not returning to 'RHOA'.
If we had to speculate right now, it was part of the nearly unanimous cast turnover following Season 15. Currently, only two cast members, Kenya Moore and Drew Sidora, are scheduled to return for Seasons 16.
This is the third time Shereé has departed 'RHOA'. Shereé appeared in the long-running series' debut season in 2008 and starred for the first four years until leaving in 2008.
Four years later, she returned as a housewife 'friend' in Season 8, before officially joining the cast the following year. She stayed for one more season before departing again in 2018. After a few years, Shereé returned as a guest for Season 13 and joined the main cast for the next two seasons.
What is 'RHOA' alum Sheree Whitfield's net worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Shereé's current net worth is $800,000. Her career as a socialite, fashion designer, and reality TV personality has contributed to this figure. Additionally, Shereé authored the book 'Wives, Fiancées, and Side-Chicks of Hotlanta.'
Is She By Sheree still in business?
Sheree has explored a variety of entrepreneurial endeavors in addition to her television appearances. She published a fictitious novel called 'Wives, Fiancees, and Side-Chicks of Hotlanta.'
She has started her clothing brand called She By Sheree, which also includes a jewelry collection. Sheree's fashion sense has been a prominent part of her television persona and a frequently debated topic on 'RHOA'.
Although She By Sheree was finally shown at a New York Fashion Show and garnered great feedback, the apparel company lost momentum in the following years.
The idea was ultimately abandoned. Fans may recall stories about Sheree being reportedly forced to sketch concepts for her fashion line due to issues with the clothing samples. Sheree has also launched several physical apparel stores. According to the brand's social media page, it appears that the business is still operational.
