A suspicious fan commented on Instagram, "They said the same thing with Sanya & all we got was 1 gold medalist flex. Lol." However, a few fans slammed 'RHOA' for bringing in new cast members. "I like new cast members but I'm just confused on the direction RHOA is taking. having a revolving door of new women every season doesn't allow us as viewers to bond with the vast like the early days with a mainstay cast," wrote a fan. Another fan speculated, "So that means Marlo $ Sheree both back next season. send help!!!" Another fan wondered, "Are they actually friends with her, or did production assign her to them since they pissed everybody but Santa off last season?" Another fan claimed, "RHOA needs to an entire new cast. They need women that are actually friends and not just random strangers creating imaginary beef." "She can be introduced as a friend but i bet by the end of this season she won't be both of their friends," claimed another 'RHOA' fan.
