Real Housewives of Atlanta Star Brit Eady Announces Split: Putting Happiness First in 2026
The end of 2025 brought another breakup in the Real Housewives world as former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Brit Eady announced her split from husband Michael Cunningham after five years of marriage. Brit used to share sweet posts about their relationship, but now it seems like their fairytale romance has come to an end. She revealed the news on Instagram, stating that she is putting her happiness first in the new year. Despite not elaborating on the reasons for the split, she mentioned "disrespect, toxicity, and triggers" in her post.
Brit's departure from RHOA had a similar tone to her separation announcement, as she chose to walk away from something that no longer served her for the sake of her mental health. Fans may remember her brief stint on the show and her feud with Kenya Moore over explicit photos. While Brit's exit from RHOA was not without drama, her decision to leave was based on prioritizing her well-being.
In addition to Brit's split, other Real Housewives of Atlanta alums like Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker are also going through a divorce. The show continues to captivate audiences with its drama and personal revelations. The Real Housewives of Atlanta can be streamed on Peacock. It remains to be seen how these relationships will evolve in the future, but for now, Brit is focused on starting a new chapter in her life.
