Nneka Ihim revealed she won’t return next season on Real Housewives of Potomac, and she shared what she plans to do next.
The newbie star made her announcement after two other castmates – Robyn Dixon and Candiace Dillard Bassett – announced their own departures. Candiace said she made the decision to leave, while Robyn (who’s been a main castmate since season one) revealed she was fired.
“I will not be returning for season 9 of RHOP,” said Nneka in a statement given to PEOPLE. “At this point, after multiple failed fertility procedures, I have decided to make expanding my family my ultimate priority.”
“Thank you to the fans that have supported me along the way this season, especially regarding my difficult IUI turned IVF journey, and the stigma surrounding infertility. All of the kind remarks have genuinely kept me uplifted and have fueled my determination to continue to share my story,” added the star, sharing her “sincere appreciation to Bravo and Truly Original for the opportunity.”
She also gave a shout-out to (some) cast members.
“[I have] built lifetime friendships with some incredible women through this experience,” she explained. “As a true resident of Potomac proper, 20854, just know that I’ll be seeing you all again soon.”
In an early episode of the season, Nneka addressed her desire to have kids.
“I’ve been trying to conceive for the past several months, and we haven’t been successful,” she said at the time. “I would love twins, a boy and a girl, and call it a day.”
