Who is the mother of Bob Whitfield's 'secret child'? Sheree Whitfield shocked to hear about ex's daughter
ATLANTA, GEORGIA: Bob, Shereé Whitfield's ex-husband, arrives for the baby reveal for granddaughter Mecca with a surprise of his own: a secret daughter. Not only was the Bravo world unaware of this information, but Sheree was as well.
Sheree had gathered her entire family as well as a few close friends to celebrate the birth of her glam baby.
The glam-ma is complimented by ex-husband Bob about the décor at the Sip & See event she organized so everyone could meet Mecca Joie Whitfield, who was born in July to Shereé's son Kairo and his girlfriend, Alina Baber.
The baby's welcome party is part of the August 20 episode of 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta'.
"Back in the day, I felt like I was a single mom because my ex-husband was busy." She says in a confessional that he was a top-tier professional football player.
Sheree Whitfield astounded to hear about ex-Bob's secret daughter
In the episode 15 preview, Bob walks in with his daughter at Mecca's Sip & Sea, absolutely surprising Sheree.
Her co-stars debated during the 'RHOA' After Show whether Sheree was attempting to save face in front of everyone at the party by concealing her annoyance.
Sanya Richards-Ross joked with the Bravo cameras that "the biggest reveal of the baby reveal...Was not Mecca!"
Bob's daughter introduces herself to Sheree saying she was born "right after Lanise," which Sheree confirms. Now, the Bravo universe has to deal with the fact that Bob has another daughter.
The cast members were taken aback at the party as the family members only wore pink for the occasion while other invitees showed up in nude colors, except for Bob's "secret daughter", whom they didn't know about prior to that moment.
Sheree talked to her co-stars on the After Show about how she initially considered the woman to be Bob's girlfriend but found out after the rest of the cast learned about Bob's relationship with the woman.
Kenya describes the moment as "blatant disrespect." She adds, "Talk about the audacity."
When everyone at the party questions Bob why Sheree wasn't aware of his daughter's existence, he defends himself, "Back then you didn't need to know the basis of things."
Bob walks away since he didn't feel like being interrogated by the Real Housewives.

Who are Bob Whitfield's children?
Bob is the father of four children. Kodi, his first child with his first wife Euraddel White, was born on May 17, 1994. Kairo, Kaleigh, and Tierra are the children of his second wife, Sheree.
Why did Shereé and Bob Whitfield split?
In the year 2000, Shereé married Bob, a former NFL offensive lineman. Kairo and Kaleigh were born after the couple's union.
Sheree also has a daughter from a previous relationship, Tierra. They split in 2007 after seven years of marriage, just before 'RHOA' premiered.
"We started out really good friends, then things changed," Shereé stated on the first episode of the reality program.
Despite this, Bob remained a fixture in the lives of Sheree, the children, and 'RHOA' fans.
Bob and Shereé's romance was explored on 'RHOA' during Season 9. While things didn't work out romantically the second time, they were able to have some difficult talks regarding previous domestic abuse.
"It was tough to even talk about that or even have those conversations with even with Bob or any of the girls — and in front of millions of people," Sheree told The Daily Dish in April 2017.
"This is something that I just kind of covered up for a long time. It was definitely emotional, but it was something that I felt afterwards, it's like, 'Oh' cause I didn't realize I was still holding on to all that pain."
"I don't want to say it felt good to be able to talk about it and to be able to try and get over it 'cause I probably couldn't have gotten over it unless it came out, unless I talked about it, unless we had these discussions," she recounted.
"So it was definitely therapeutic for me and I felt like I needed to do that to be the best woman that I can be — not just for myself, but in a relationship."
Bob and Sheree "get along good" these days, the socialite said on 'Watch What Happens Live' with Andy Cohen in May 2020 and later he joined the whole fam at Mecca's Sip & See.
