One of the most popular blogs on this site that still gets lots of hits every day is this one that I posted in November about what happened between Kim and Sweetie.  Last summer, sometime in August about two months after Kim, Kroy and the gang moved into the big ole house in Roswell. the frequent tweeting between Kim and Sweetie stopped. Lots of their followers noticed and waited to hear what had happened. But nothing was floating around the Internet until Brielle posted the following on her Formspring page.

umm shes firedd.
Thus began all the speculation and rumors that have tended to recycle themselves over the past few months.  I fully expected the fallout to be shown on season four, but it doesn’t look like that is going to happen. It would be a great question for the reunion show.  Or maybe it will be shown on Tardy for the Wedding which was filming about that time.
But FINALLY we have news from Sweetie herself…


Recently, Atlanta blogger extrodinaire, Michelle Brown aka @ATLien of Straight from the A interviewed Sweetie in an attempt to get to the bottom of the situation. I’ve been dying to read the blog about her interview ever since she first mentioned it on twitter. Tonight, it’s finally up! Be sure to click on the youtube for the full audio of the interview
In the interview, Sweetie talks about working for Kim since she was 15, well before the show started. She denies the rumors that she stole from Kim saying that she had access to bank accounts and all manner of expensive things for all those years and would never do anything like that. With some gentle prodding from ATLien, she indicates that she was on the way to work one day and Kim just told her that it wasn’t going to work out for them anymore.  Sweetie claims she doesn’t want to say anything bad about anyone. She talks about Kim recently sticking up for her on twitter saying that she would never steal from her.  But when it comes to Kroy, Sweetie even more elusive about what happened just saying “he’s cool” in a way that seems to say she doesn’t really believe that. When I listened to the interview I immediately thought, “So I was right,  it did have something to do with Kroy.”

My opinion of Kroy’s part in the firing has changed a bit since watching season four. It seems that Kroy and Sweetie did collaborate on things at first like Kim’s surprise birthday party.  They seemed to get along well, at least while the cameras were rolling. Sweetie seemed a bit OVER IT on season four. Kim came off on camera as being a bit irritated that Sweetie was slacking.  Perhaps it just got to the point with Kroy where he said to Kim, “Either deal with Sweetie as she is or replace her” since Kim does tend to bitch about Sweetie ALOT even though it did seem to be in a playful way.  Who knows why Kim fired Sweetie. She was pregnant, hormonal, moving into a new huge place, and planning a wedding.  Maybe Kroy just suggested she eliminate as much stress in her life as possible and get someone to help that didn’t come with all the emotional baggage that hiring a friend brings along with it. Meanwhile, Sweetie is going to school and maintaining a high GPA and focused on her career goals. I think that is a smart choice for anyone young woman in her twenties.  What do you think?
