Since its debut in 2008 as the third city in Bravo's The Real Housewives franchise, The Real Housewives of Atlanta has achieved fame for creating bonafide reality TV stars and producing some of the franchise's most jaw-dropping moments of all time. Although the cast has transformed over the years, the Georgia Housewives have never failed to entertain fans.
RHOA fans are familiar with the show's changing relationships — from weddings to divorces to open marriages, and perhaps even more importantly, the evolving alliances and conflicts among the main cast. Although qualities like age and zodiac sign undoubtedly have bearing on these dynamics, many fans don't know these basics.
Updated on November 5th, 2022, by Lynn Gibbs: The cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta has changed over the years. After being on Bravo for 14 seasons (and counting), there’s a lot of turnover in this cast, but the main crew remains intact. Although the women share a lot about their lives in front of the camera, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s zodiac signs, ages, and heights are rarely spoken of. RHOA’s zodiac signs could be an indication for fans why the women act or react in certain ways, or even why a Housewife is a fan’s favorite.
Marlo Hampton - Aquarius
46 Years Old, 6’0”, Newly Single
Marlo Hampton had one of the best taglines on RHOA in season 14. After years of being a friend and a guest in the series, she finally got her peach in season 14 and is now known as a main Housewife.
In her first official season, Marlo was honest about her struggles as a guardian to her nephews and what that meant for her life. As always, Marlo was also the life of the party (despite some dark times) and is an entertaining Housewife to watch. At 46 years old, Marlo is newly single after breaking up with an unnamed billionaire and is one of the taller Housewives at 6’0”.
Sanya Richards-Ross - Pisces
37 Years Old, 5’8”, Married
Sanya Richards-Ross is the newest Housewife on this list after joining the series in season 14. Richards-Ross is known for her athletic abilities as a former Olympian, and she showcased her new life in Atlanta living with her husband, son, and parents.
She’s well on her way to becoming one of the more likable Housewives on RHOA if she comes back for a second season. At 37 years old, Sanya is one of the younger Housewives and is married to her college sweetheart, Aaron Ross. As a Pisces, she’s empathetic and compassionate, but she can also be naive with some of the other women.
Kenya Moore: Aquarius
51 Years Old, 5'10", Newly Divorced
Kenya Moore is one of Atlanta's most controversial Housewives. Her iconic quotes sum up her personality perfectly. The former model has been stirring the pot since her first days on RHOA in season 5, and although she found love in 2017 with restaurateur Marc Daly, the couple confirmed their split for the second time in January 2021.
Today, Kenya is single but is in a much better place than she was a year ago. Standing 5'10", Kenya is among the show's tallest Housewives and one of the older cast members. Aquarians are known for being eccentric, independent, and intelligent, and Kenya has no shortage of those attributes.
Kandi Burruss: Taurus
46 Years Old, 5'2", Married
Kandi Burruss boasts not only a successful and long-running appearance on RHOA but also a flourishing career as an entrepreneur and singer/songwriter. She joined the show in season 2 and has stuck with it ever since, forming a memorable relationship with Kenya Moore and other Housewives.
Kandi is basically an OG Housewife at this point with iconic moments. She's also the show's second-shortest Housewife in recent memory, and she wed Todd Tucker in 2014. At 46, she's a loyal and artistic Taurus.
Drew Sidora: Taurus
37 Years Old, 5'3", Married
Drew Sidora joined the RHOA cast in season 13 and has already made an impression on fans and the other Housewives. At 37, the multitalented actress (who fans might recognize from Step Up) is currently the youngest Atlanta Housewife.
Since Drew is newer to the series, she's yet to be the best cast member in her season, but time will tell. She's married to Ralph Pittman and as an earth sign, it's no wonder she clashes with Aquarian Kenya. Along with Kandi, she's on the shorter side of the RHOA women.
Shereé Whitfield: Capricorn
52 Years Old, 5'5", Single
Like former Housewife NeNe Leakes, Sherée was one of Atlanta's best OG Housewives for the first four seasons before rejoining the cast for seasons 9 and 10. Luckily for RHOA fans, Shereé has always popped in and out of the series before returning as a main cast member again in season 14.
Remembered for her huge mansion known as "Chateau Shereé," the socialite had no shortage of social events to attend and kept her life meticulously organized as Capricorns often do. Although she dated Tyrone Gilliams for much of her tenure on the show, she's now single.
