Kenya Moore is a crucial personality on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Ever since she joined the franchise in season five, Kenya has made herself an indispensable part of the show.
Since joining the show, Kenya has starred in her own TV pilot, started a skincare line, and even created an infamous workout video she did just to spite former castmate, Phaedra Parks. Before she became a housewife, Kenya was known for being Miss USA and even had her own production company. Now, Kenya has entered a new chapter of her life: being a wife and a mother. But what else has Kenya done that many Housewives fans may not know about? Keeping reading to get the inside scoop on Kenya Moore.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Kenya is currently 47 years old and was born January 24, 1971 in Detroit, Michigan. Besides being featured as a full time cast member on RHOA, she has also appeared on other TV shows, such as The Celebrity Apprentice, The Steve Harvey Show and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. At the age of fifteen, Kenya began modeling and was the January 1992 cover girl for the Chicago-based Johnson Publishing Company's Ebony Man magazine. In 1989, the reality star graduated from Cass Technical High School and then attended Wayne State University, where she majored in psychology and minored in communication. In the 1990s, Kenya began entering pageants, something she continuously talks about on RHOA. At the age of 22 years old, Kenya won the Miss Michigan USA pageant, which led her to compete in both the Miss USA pageant and the Miss Universe pageant. She made history in the Miss USA pageant, as she was the second African American woman to ever win. Kenya also appeared in several TV shows and movies throughout her career and later began her production company, Moore Vision Media, in 2008. This allowed Kenya to make a cool $800,000 as her estimated net worth.
In June 2017, Kenya married businessman and restaurant owner Marc Daly. The couple announced they were expecting their first child together less than a year later in April. Kenya gave birth to her daughter, Brooklyn Doris Daly, on November 4, 2018. Kenya revealed she and Marc named her daughter after the city they met in (Brooklyn) and gave her the middle name Doris after her late grandmother.
Unfortunately, after less than 3 years of marriage, Kenya and Marc decided to separate. Kenya revealed on the season 12 reunion that she found "sexting" messages from an ex on Marc's phone. However, the couple may be on the mend, as Kenya shared a photo last month to her Instagram of she and Marc celebrating Brooklyn's birthday.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays at 8 pm ET On Bravo.
