Bravo's hit reality television series "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" is returning with an all-new season.
Last season, reality star NeNe Leaks departed the show for good. The new season will introduce a new cast member in the wake of NeNe Leaks' departure.
Kim Fields will join the cast next season. Fields is the former star of the series "Facts of Life." Cast member Kenya Moore said to Fields in the trailer for the season, "This is Hollywood royalty right here girl." Fields will join Cynthia Bailey, Kandi Burress, Kenya Moore, Phaedra Parks, Porsha Williams, and Sheree Whitefield.
The new season will have its fair share of ups and downs and even more drama.

Kenya Moore is still looking for love, while also building what has been dubbed as "Moore Manor." Always-busy Phaedra Parks is embarking on life as a single mother, while husband Apollo is incarcerated. And Porsha Williams has found love.
The upcoming season will get even crazier as the tension between the ladies intensifies. Peter cusses out his wife Cynthia, while nasty catfights continue to happen. The season will be epic. Fields will be surprised to discover that Parks' husband Apollo is now in jail. Peter will get caught cozying up with another woman that will spark the problems between him and his wife.
Porsha Williams is also interested in having a baby as well since Kandi's pregnancy will be chronicled throughout the entire season. Phaedra is also preparing for her divorce since that is what her husband wants. She will raise her two kids on her own.
Porsha has a new man in her life and she is happier. Kandi will worry that something is wrong with her baby after her first checkup with her doctor in the season premiere.
The new season will premiere on Nov. 8.
