Bravo is speaking out regarding the offensive Native American costume that Kenya Moore wore during the recent Halloween episode of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘ this past Sunday.
While Kenya herself has been pretty silent since the backlash started on Sunday evening, her costars and viewers have been a little more vocal.
I hate this shit too, @KenyaMoore cultural appropriation as a costume? Really Kenya?? 🙄 #RHOA pic.twitter.com/BcTZp0M5Q7

Kenya Moore coming to a party dressed as a “Native American” is probably the most disgusting thing I’ve seen on Housewives since Monique Samuels did it a couple seasons ago. Do better. #RHOA

Feeling the heat, Bravo took to Instagram to issue the following on behalf of the show and network.

Kenya did respond to one fan who called her out directly revealing that the costume was “part of her heritage.”
Also part of my heritage #RHOA https://t.co/EP4gzrswmp
