Exclusive | Eva Marcille's wedding to be filmed for 'RHOA' Season 11 finaleEva Marcille might be across the world from Atlanta in Peacock’s original new series Eat Slay Love, but she’s still close with some of her former costars from The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

The former Housewife and her gal pals Tammy Rivera and Nivea chatted with Bravo’s The Daily Dish to discuss their wild adventures from their unforgettable girls’ trip to Vietnam in Eat Slay Love, now available to stream on Peacock. Eva, who also lived it up with others from the Housewives franchise for the second season of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, called the new series “a testament to female friendship.”

Clearly, she's formed a tight bond with her Eat Slay Love castmates. But who does Eva keep in touch with from RHOA? Here's what she had to say.

Who is Eva Marcille friends with from RHOA?

The model and actress, who appeared on RHOA as a main cast member for Seasons 11 and 12, told The Daily Dish, “Oh, yes,” when asked if she still keeps in touch with the Atlanta Housewives.

Eva said she and Cynthia Bailey also maintained a relationship, adding that they’d just exchanged texts about the “crazy election” in which Donald Trump was voted in as the 47th U.S. President. Kandi Burruss Tucker was another, with Eva referring to the Housewife as “my baby.”

“I don’t miss anything she does,” Eva said of the latter. “I support all her endeavors.”

Eva especially appreciated what Kandi has done for the Black community.

“Black women in this space are so underrepresented, and she goes above and beyond and continues to move the needle forward,” Eva continued.

Shamea Morton Mwangi — set to return for RHOA Season 16 — is another Housewife still in Eva’s contact list.

“I cannot wait for the world to see the Shamea that I know,” Eva said, much to the excitement of her fellow Eat Slay Love costars. “She’s a boss!”

Eva said she was “so excited” to see multiple comebacks on RHOA Season 16, including Shamea (a longtime supporting cast member, earning the Housewife title for the first time in the upcoming season) as well as Porsha Williams, returning after a three-year hiatus.

“Shamea’s amazing, so I’m so excited to see Shamea,” Eva said. “I know the fans are excited to see Porsha come back.”
