Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta shocked everyone during Part 3 of the season 4 reunion.

Up until that point, Bailey, a former model, had been mostly seen and not heard on the show but things have clearly changed.

In addition to Cynthia’s new found courage, she’s bonded with season 4 background character (and fellow “talls” teammate) Marcus Marlo Hampton.

A recent interview reveals Cynthia’s support of Marlo and she’s surprising speaking up on her behalf!

Details…

Bailey explains to The Hollywood Reporter that she fully supports Marlo Hampton becoming a regular cast member of RHOA, and states:

I think Marlo is definitely very entertaining for the show.

I like shooting with her just in terms of Marlo as a cast mate.? Whenever she?s in the equation, things always take a different turn than what they thought it was going to be. So, Marlo would be really, really great to throw into the mix and see what?s going to happen.

Things usually are always a little different when she is around.

I can honestly say that South Africa would not have been the same if Marlo Hampton had not come on that trip.

As for the implication that Bailey was ever jealous of her BFF NeNe Leakes‘ budding friendship with the ex-con, she says she’s ready to set the record straight…

?I am so absolutely fine with NeNe and Marlo?s relationship,? she says. ?I think it?s great. Marlo and I are two different people. My relationship with NeNe is very different from hers. They do their thing; Nene and I do our thing. NeNe and I both have different friends.?

“I?m fine with NeNe being friends with anyone. The friend contract never said you couldn?t have other friends.? she goes on to say, referring to the prank document she wrote up for NeNe that some fans thought bordered on crazy.

Welp… it looks like Marquavious Marlo has added another one to the team and with Cynthia on her side, Montel Marlo may just may a few appearances next season.

All I know is… Cynthia better be ready to rock a hockey mask if she and?Maury Povich Marlo fall out because we all know what happens to the faces of those who cross that label whore!
