15	----
16	!!!Claudia's tropes:
17	* ConvenientCharacterReplacement: For Porsha.
18	* [[RecurringCharacter Friend of the Housewives]]: Claudia was originally supposed to be this while Demetria was the designated peach-holder. Surprisingly enough, it was [=NeNe=] who advocated for Claudia to be promoted to the cast after the infamous reading session in Puerto Rico (Episode 10).
19	* {{Main/Irony}}: Her tagline is a strong example of this when you realize she was only around for one season.
20	-->''"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I'm here to stay!"''
21	* [[HalfBreedDiscrimination Mixed-Race Discrimination]]: Claudia recounts being made fun of as a little girl for being biracial; as well as racist attacks against her family due to her parents' interracial marriage.

32	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Kenya finally got a taste of Kim's nastier side during the Season 8 reunion.
33	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Departed after Season 8. And will likely never return.

42	-> "''I was an A-list when you were an alias!''"
43	-->-- To Marlo. Season 11
44	-> [[green:Full-time: Season 11]]
45	Shamari first rose to fame in the late 1990s as the lead singer of R&B girl group Blaque. They are best known for their hit single "Bring It All To Me" which features JC Chasez of {{Music/NSync}}. Since then, she married Ronnie [=DeVoe=] of Music/NewEdition and Music/BellBivDeVoe with whom she shares twin boys. She joins the cast in Season 11 in the wake of Kenya' s departure.

59	Eva first debuted on ''RHOA'' in Season 10 as [=NeNe=]'s friend. She gained her peach a season later along with newcomer Shamari [=DeVoe=].
60	!!!Eva's tropes:
61	* FriendshipDenial: Eva to Yovanna in Season 11. The two women went to school together and Eva's best friend is a close mutual friend of hers. Yovanna remembers Eva but Eva doesn't remember her at all.

69	[[caption-width-right:350:Drew (Season 15, 2023)]]
70	-->[[green:Full-time: Season 13-''present'']]
71	Drew is the first addition since Kenya (Season 7) and Porsha (Season 8) to remain on the show for more than two seasons.
72	----
73	!!!Drew's tropes:
74	* ActressAllusion: Drew makes reference to her role in ''[[Series/TheGame2006 The Game]]'' in her Season 13 tagline.
75	* BabyOfTheBunch: In Season 13 and currently, being just a few months younger than Sanya.
76	* BetaBitch: Is this to Porsha during her initial season. Following Porsha's departure, she is able to begin coming into her own as a Housewife.
77	* HairFlip: In Sayna's face at the Season 14 reunion, much to Sanya's chagrin.
78	* TokenReligiousTeammate: She picked up the mantle where Phaedra left it. Like her predecessor, Drew was raised by preacher parents. In her debut season, Drew was a firm believer in the preacher "prophet" and even called Latoya a "Delilah spirit"[[note]]a spirit akin to that of Jezebel; used to describe an immoral and sexually loose person, typically a woman. The term refers to the biblical character Delilah from the Literature/BookOfJudges[[/note]].

80	[[folder:Marlo Hampton]]
81	!!Marlo Hampton
82	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marlotta.jpg]]
83	[[caption-width-right:350:Marlo (Season 15, 2023)]]
84	->[[green:Full-time: Seasons 14-15]]
85	->[[red:Friend of the Housewives: Season 4; 10-13]]
86	->[[blue:Guest: Season 6; 8-9]]
87	->''"My past may be checkered, but my future is solid gold."''
88	-->--eason 15 tagline.
89	----
90	* AbandonmentIssues: They're evident with Marlo. She hates feeling left out. To quote Kenya: "Marlo would come to the opening of an envelope." Her Season 4 argument with Shereé started because she didn't invite her a dinner party she was going to in South Africa.
91	* ArchEnemy: Self-appointed to Kandi. In honor of her promotion to full-time cast, she vowed to "make Kandi work for her peach."
92	** Marlo and Kandi also got into it pretty bad at the Season 4 reunion back in 2012. Things haven't changed much since then.
93	** She also serves as this to both Kenya and Porsha, albeit at different times.
94	* TheDragon: To [=NeNe=] when she was on the show. It's ironic because at the Season 5 reunion, [=NeNe=] theorized that Phaedra brought Marlo into the show intending to antagonize her.
95	* TheFashionista: Marlo's calling card (aside from being a shitstirrer). She debuts her clothing store Le'Archive in Season 14's premiere episode.
96	* [[RecurringCharacter Friend of the Housewives]]: Via Phaedra, [=NeNe=], Kenya, Kandi, Shereé (damn near half the cast).
97	** She occupied this role for '''years''' before her Season 14 promotion. Marlo is by far the most notable "Friend Of" of the ''Atlanta'' series and perhaps the entire ''Real Housewives'' franchise.
98	* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Marlo has been in conflict with '''every''' Housewife she has been on the show with with the exception of Phaedra. In Season 15, she instigates problems with half the cast--Kandi, Kenya, Drew, and even Monyetta.
99	* {{Main/Irony}}: Marlo accused Kandi of not being open enough with her life on the show yet Kandi has historically been the most transparent member of the ''Atlanta'' cast. The audience still doesn't know too much about Marlo's life.
100	* {{Main/Nephewism}}: Marlo takes in her two nephews after Season 9. She calls herself s "munty" ([[Main/PortManteau mom and auntie]]) in reference to her new role.
101	* ParentalAbandonment: Marlo grew up in the foster care system due to her mother being unable to raise her and her siblings.
102	* [[CreatorsFavorite Producer's Pet]]: It can't go unnoticed how Marlo's antics in Seasons 14 and 15 seem to be spun in a way that is favorable for her by production. The Season 14 reunion was set up for Marlo to have a pity party despite her antagonization of both Kenya and Kandi. Becomes more blatantly obvious in Season 15. There is one instance where editors left out a scene from Episode 3 where she yelled in Drew's face when Drew brought up her aggressive behavior.
103	* PromotedToOpeningCredits: Finally in Season 14. Ten years after her initial appearance.
104	* PutOnABus: Between Seasons 5 and 7, Marlo only made one guest appearance in Season 6 due to a falling out with [=NeNe=] who refused to film with Marlo for a while.
105	** TheBusCameBack: Clearly. When [=NeNe=] stepped away from the series after Season 7, Marlo was able to make her way back into the cast.
106	* WhamLine: '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/embed/idujU4DOHeQ?start=41 "Kandi... are you a lesbian?"]]''''' in Season 9.

108	[[folder:Sanya Richards-Ross]]
109	!!Sanya Richards-Ross
110	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sanya.jpg]]
111	[[caption-width-right:350:Sanya (Season 15, 2023)]]
112	->[[green:Full-time: Seasons 14-15]]
113	->''"I may be a rookie, but this isn't my first race."''
114	-->--Sanya's Season 14 tagline.
115	Sanya joined the cast in Season 14. She is introduced to the audience via Drew.
116
117	----
118	!!!Sanya's tropes:
119	* ArchNemesis: Sanya can hardly stand Drew. Drew doesn't really know where this comes from and doesn't much reciprocate the dislike.
120	* BetaBitch: Becomes this to Marlo. Especially noticeable in Season 15 as she begins to have issues with Kandi due to her constant defense of Marlo despite her antagonism of Kandi, Kenya, and Drew.
121	* TheBigRace: Sanya is a retired Olympic track and field medalist. Her taglines in Seasons 14 and 15 make reference to her racing career.
122	* MultigenerationalHousehold: Along with her husband and their son, Sanya shares her home with her parents, sister, brother-in-law, and two nephews. Sanya loves it, [[Main/PlayedForDrama but her husband is ready to be the only king in his castle.]]
123	* TeamSwitzerland: Sanya ''thinks'' she's this but is clearly Team Marlo in her drama with Kandi, Kenya, and Drew.
