Marlo Hampton Returning To 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta'

Marlo Hampton, the socialite who became popular on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" may be back for season six of the show.

Hampton only appeared in the series during its fourth season and did not return for the fifth. However, former co-star and actress NeNe Leakes brought her friend along as a bridesmaid for her recent wedding, which was also filmed for the latter's spinoff series, "I Dream of NeNe."

Now, Hampton said she will be back on the scene for season six of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

"I'm taping a couple of scenes here and there," she told Radar Online. "I don't know if I'm supposed to tell you that, but yeah."

Hampton's comments come after Leakes publicly bashed her former friend and spoke about why she did not fit into the show.

"When Marlo and I worked on 'Real Housewives [of Atlanta],' she was just appearing here and there," Leakes told Entertainment Weekly recently. "When we worked on 'I Dream of NeNe,' I could see her business sense, and it just wasn't attractive." NeNe told Entertainment Weekly. "..After working with Marlo on the show, I could see why she was not a housewife because she's super difficult. She's super extra."

However, Hampton disputed those claims.

"Everyone loves my personality. The producers love me," she insisted when speaking to Radar Online. "Which producer wouldn't love me? It would be a fool not to, right?"

Although Hampton said she is not a main cast member, she hinted at a role that she would be playing on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

"It just would be friend of the housewives, [but] I always just say a cast member because I'm on it," she told Radar Online. "I'm being called to tape… so I would definitely say I'm a cast member with Bravo."
