“Thank you to the fans who have watched us from day 1,” she continued. “I do want to especially thank all of the fans and viewers who have supported me, showed loved to me. Whether you directly sent me love or you prayed for me or you have positive thoughts around me, I appreciate you. And I hope I inspired you the viewers, the fans, to live your life authentically. To not feel pressure to change for anyone, or impress people, and just to be yourself.”
Candiace Dillard also announced her exit from the series in March. It’s unclear if she was fired or left RHOP on her own accord.
The 37-year-old revealed her departure from RHOP on March 25 via a statement to PEOPLE.

With Robyn, Candiace, and Nneka gone the remaining RHOP cast would consist of Karen Huger, Gizelle Bryant, Mia Thornton, Ashley Darby, and Wendy Osefo.
The Real Housewives of Potomac is expected to return for season 9 in early 2025.
