Cynthia Bailey’s Best Moments on Real Housewives of Atlanta

The owner of the Bailey agency was a long-time pillar of the The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Until his departure in 2021 after 11 seasons. Cynthia Bailey Cynthia has always been seen as the peacekeeper of the group and has become known for her ability to remain calm. When Cynthia announced that she was ending her relationship with Peach, fans were understandably upset. We’ve lost so many great housewives that it felt personal to take another hit. So, with a possible reboot of the series in the works, it seems like the perfect time to take a look back.

Cynthia Bailey’s Friendship Contract

I appreciate people who like to shout from the rooftops about their best friend. But when Cynthia pulled out a lengthy contract filled with bullet points for NeNe Leakes, it was a first for Real Housewives. The whole ordeal took place in 2010 after the former model wanted to set the record straight with NeNe. In a cute moment, Cynthia handed over the OGa candle and then a stack of papers, which were supposed to be notarized and signed by the President of the United States.

However, the joke got away from NeNe, who then called Cyn a “single black woman” and noted that the whole situation was awkward. In a mean girl move for the ages, NeNe then showed the document to Kim Zolciak for a good laugh. But Cynthia never wavered in her friendship for a second. Until she decided to burn the contract a few seasons later after NeNe betrayed her.

Cynthia Bailey, the rapper

For a Halloween party, Cynthia transformed into 50 Cent, aka “C-Unit.” This artistic expression came after she celebrated her 50th birthday. The look was inspired by the model going all out and even including some facial hair. The Real Housewives of Atlanta model looked hot as hell and proved that she could look just as good as a man. A few years later, Cynthia landed a spot on Starz’s BMZ, which is produced by 50 Cent. So it’s safe to say that imitation is the highest form of flattery.

The battle of the yacht, no one will forget it

Cynthia rarely loses her cool, but Porsha Williams has a way of getting on her co-stars’ nerves. But Cynthia is usually the least aggressive housewife on the show, so when she got into a physical altercation with Porsha, it rattled fans. At the time, Cynthia was going through the end of her marriage to Peter Thomas, and it was understandable that the woman was stressed. With the combination of alcohol and strong emotions, it was a recipe for disaster.

Porsha accidentally called Cynthia a “bitch,” and even though Porsha tried to explain her side of the story, Cynthia lost control and kicked her in the stomach. While this wasn’t technically one of Cynthia’s best moments personally, it was her best moment professionally.

Cynthia supports Noelle

It’s a beautiful thing to see a mother support her child when they choose to talk about their sexuality. Cynthia did just that while standing on a Pride float with her daughter, Noelle Robinson. During Season 12, Cynthia had a very touching conversation with Noelle about her sexual fluidity. While some parents might not have been prepared, Cynthia simply responded, “I just want you to be happy, Noelle. If you meet an incredible young woman, it’s a blessing. As long as they’re good people and they love you and support you.”

The model went on to say even more in her confession, saying, “It makes me happy that Noelle feels like she has a safe space to share… Love is love.”

Thanks to the Real Housewives of Atlanta reboot, rumors are swirling that Cynthia could be welcomed back to the show. With another divorce under her belt, it would be interesting to catch up with the actress. I bet if Cynthia got her mojo back, she would be making some memorable TV moments in no time.
