The premiere episode of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Season 13 saw Kenya Moore feeling sad and lost. Fans felt sorry for the housewife after watching her be mistreated by her husband, Marc Daly. Just as fans were beginning to warm up to the usually shady housewife, the 'shade ninja' in the former beauty queen jumped out on the latest episode. The recently aired episode of 'RHOA' saw Kenya back in her element, throwing unnecessary shade at her fellow housewives and being dismissive of them.

It's no secret that Kenya doesn't take to new housewives very easily, she is always wary and has her guard up when she's around a new cast member. It was the same when Cynthia Bailey tries introducing new housewife, Drew Sidora, to the group. Cynthia invited Drew and a couple of other ladies to her house for wine tasting. When Drew walked into the party with her husband, Ralph, Kenya didn't waste any time in judging and throwing shade at the new lady.

Kenya looked Drew up and down and openly wondered in her green room interview about where Cynthia finds her friends from. She questioned if Cynthia picked her friends up from 'local pound' after meeting Drew. Fans didn't take to Kenya's humiliating comments towards Drew kindly and called her out for it. A fan tweeted, "#RHOA Kenya dont like anybody with more fame than her. She instantly had an issue with Kim Fields and now she instantly has an issue with Drew Sidora. Referring to Drew as from the pound??? Girl." "#RHOA whyyyyyyyyy is awful Kenya still around. Disgusting comment about Drew + Cynthia bringing her home from the pound. Such a miserable woman," wrote a fan. 



 



 

Fans also felt that Kenya's comments towards Drew were uncalled for. A fan expressed, "Kenya calling Drew a stray and put her in the pound..... now see this is why try as I may I find it hard to empathize with Kenya.... you don’t just call someone a dog like that #Rhoa." "Kenya referring to other women as strays from the local pound she really be bothered by other women #rhoa," shared a fan. "Kenya calling Drew a "stray" and that Cynthia got Drew from the "local pound" is so unwarranted and uncalled for. How vile. #RHOA," commented a fan.
