Kandi Burruss is pregnant according to Us Magazine!
“We’re so thrilled to announce the news of our bundle of joy! It’s a dream come true.” Kandi said. “Our daughters, Kaela and Riley, couldn’t be happier about becoming big sisters,” Tucker added.
They sex of the baby has not been disclosed. Toddy is praying for a boy. Frankly, so am I.
Well, um, YAY! I hope there was something in the prenup about child custody.
What? Kandi is signed for another year on Bravo. It’s only a matter of time until these two divorce. Both of their other kids seem to have problems. Okay it is mainly Riley.
I’m sorry I can’t pretend that procreating in this situation is a good idea. Especially since it was allegedly such a difficult process and Kandi was not getting enough actual intercourse.
Who else thinks she is very pregnant and was holding it out for storyline?
I’m just keeping it 100, ya’ll.
Mmmmm yeah a storyline and a spin off.
She has always gotten a spin off without pregnancy. She doesn’t really need a story line. She is like the buffer zone. She can make a storyline with Phaedra and their fight. Phaedra who has no storyline would be grateful. Am more worried about her marriage lasting. It seems to be limping along.
I hope their conflict is production driven and not their reality. Every episode where they discussed trying to get pregnant, I thought “oh please don’t do it.”
Me too. I’m on the fence about whether Kandi and Todd and Mama Joyce are for real, or just playing the reality tv game better than anyone.
It’s the immaculate conception 2.0
Not a great idea, but this will be a cutie-pie baby. I wish them all good things.
“We’re so thrilled to announce the news of our
bundle of joystoryline for next season! It’s adream come trueguaranteed paycheck.” Kandi said. “Our daughters, Kaela and Riley, couldn’t be happier aboutbecoming big sistersthe focus being off of their behavior,” Tucker added.There, FTF them.
ericzku for prez! LOL
This timing is perfect though, this puts her around a February – April delivery like right before the reunion when she usually films her “specials” that Bravo learned to incorporate Real Housewives of Atlanta into the title to trick DVR’s.
I see you Kandi, but I know you have to eat too.
Remember our pal Alice Roosevelt Longworth. If you can’t say anything nuce about anyone at all, come sit next to me.
You keep me laughing ericzku. And you are right, it is boatswain pronounced bosun
LMAO. Do people actually think their antics weren’t for the camera.a They’re fooling us all one spinoff at a time. Get them cheques Kandi.
So I’m interested, since life has got in the way of my behind the scenes blog reading on my shows- why do you say Rielly is a problem?
Riley is very spoiled and entitled, not to mention bossy. We’re not supposed to talk bad about kids but Kandi puts her daughter on television so her parenting skills are going to be scrutinized… she admits she lets Riley do whatever she wants. Very unhealthy for a barely teenage girl.
I don’t think Kandi’s mother has helped much with her ugly attitude.
Riley acts as though she is grown already and is very much a spoiled entitled child. She doesn’t seem to value money either. When shopping for the ski trip she couldn’t even locate her items for last year and talks somewhat rudely to her mother. When the Old Lady Gang is your major influence I guess we can’t expect much.
Riley emulates her grandmother, Joyce. Spoiled, entitled and bossy. She sometimes even sounds like Joyce. That’s her problem. Kandi spoils both her mother and daughter in the same way — except she’ll actually make an attempt to check Riley at times.
Hopefully this will ensure Todd a bigger payout when he finally reaches his limit of Burruss family fuckery & hits the bricks. I think he deserves 1/2 her fortune just for what his mom went thru. Now, I know Todd isn’t an angel but compared to the Kandi/Riley/Mam Joyce trifecta… Damn!
Oops! I mean, congratulations Kandi! I’m super happy for you. A baby is always a blessing!
Cosign this. Todd is a douche – but Kandi and her mother are worse.
What exactly makes Todd a douche?
Yup. Todd is hard to watch. The lovely couple just got married and it seems that they are already having beaucoup problems & not much sex. Kandi’s daughter is obese. I fear that Riley’s attitude and personality will only get worse with age. Smh. Is she all of 11? Mama mia! Did Kandi’s Aunt’s or Momma make it past elementary school? WTF? They mangle the English language and their behavior on screen is cringe worthy. .Momma J is money hungry and uses her daughter for new homes and fancy SUV’s. Yawn. I hope they retire the entire family off the show tout de suite!
I smell another crappy spin off opportunity. Your child custody in the prenup line is hilarious.
Todd will go the way of A.J before Kandi gives up custody
Umm wtf TT? Having a baby to save a failing reality tv marriage is totes the best action to avoid dismal disaster.
Wow…just wow! Such mean nasty comments. I wish them the best.
Agree. Congratulations to them!
Congrats to kandi and Todd. I wish them the best of everything. Hopefully, Todd will man up and take charge of his family now, instead of being subservient to that hag Mama Joyce and those trogolodite old aunties. His wife needs a backbone, and Todd should make it clear that from now on he isn’t going to stand for anymore nonsense.
Having an inlaw interfere on your own flesh and blood tends to give you backbone you never knew you had.. Guess we’ll see!
No man will come between me and my flesh and blood. Todd should suck it up after all mama Joyce doesn’t live with them. With the divorce rate being what it is even for marriages that have no interferences I would hate to lose both husband (who will marry someone else …. Hi Angelina Jolie and Miranda Lambert) and lose my flesh and blood. The world is a cold place when you are TOTALLY alone. Been there done that and regret that.
I’m happy for them!!!
Wonder who will “cry” more – Kandi or the baby. Lol.
So, was Riley a twatess on that skiing show thing? I did not watch it because I had the choice of having bamboo shoved in my urethra or watching the show. It only hurt for a minute.
Anyway, I have no doubt that the child doesn’t know how to act because watching your mother play with deeealdohs on tv can be traumatical and junk.
Not really – her & the step sis were asked to switch rooms w/elderly aunts early on & they both whined some & were then allowed to stay in then rooms, thus teaching the age old lesson that whining works. She did take up for Todd’s assistant when he was being made fun of by Kandi’s crew, so that was nice to see her be semi-normal.
I don’t think in that case they whined about it. Kandi ask them would they mind switching and they declined. Why should the minors be away from their parents on a family trip? If anything it is Carmen fault for placing elderly women on a dark pathway in icy conditions. She could have put them closer to the main house and still on the first floor to accomodate for their health problems. Todd assistant would have gotten it right.
When your parents ask you to do something and your response is “noooooo… We wanna stay heeerreeeeeeeee. Uhhhhhhhhhh……whhyyyyyyyyaaaaaa”. That is WHINING. Try some apostrophes.
Yep the whined and then flat out refused to change rooms and Kandi was just like, “Okay whatever you want.”

I’m ready to forgive Riley for a lot after she defended Todd’s assistant. She should have done it in a more “teasing” way – matching their passive aggressive “joking” about the assistant.. but she’s young, and god knows there is nothing passive about her grandma.
Riley wasn’t even barely a teenager when this was filmed… she doesn’t turn 13 until late August (I looked it up). I feel badly for her sometimes – she’s really tall for her age, and never has seemed much of an extrovert. So, she’s on a TV show where her elders are acting like loons and a lot of people are assuming that she is older than she is. It is hard on the ones who grow and mature physically faster for their age – when their emotional maturity could be YOUNGER than their actual age.
Riley jumping into to adult conversations and not being corrected by her mother is another example of her bad behavior that is going unchecked. Not something to admire her for.

I kind of agree… but I see it that they were bullying that young man to cover that they weren’t doing their jobs, and the fact that it bothered Riley and she stood up for them is what I like. There was nothing adult about their behavior… but the problem is that Todd or Kandi should have put a stop to it before the 12 year old felt she had to step in.
i’m happy for them.
Kandi is my favorite, and I hope they have a healthy pregnancy and a happy marriage forever.
That being said, I follow her on Facebook and she is incredibly busy. I don’t know how she will balance her work ethic with a newborn.
Since someone brought it up – Riley comes across as a complete brat. What is wrong with Kaela, though? I didn’t watch that Ski Trip mess, but read the recaps. Did I miss something?
Very exciting news for the both of them. How wonderful.
@Kay, Rozanna and Lady Cocotte, you are all right. Riley does come across as a bossy entitled brat. Kandi lets her and MJ get away with so much stupid stuff, and when somebody calls her on it all she does is the “ugly” cry. I wish them well with a new baby and all, but the prospect of a new baby has never fixed an already jacked up relationship. I really don’t think that a newborn is going to change MJs’ attitude toward Todd, cause that woman is just mean (imo). Trifecta indeed.
I’m sure Mama Joyce is THRILLED.
Someone else to cut into Kandi’s money that should be spent on her!!
I think it would just peachy if they had a little girl.
………and named her Joyce.
Bahahaha ♡
I hope she has a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby.
Good for them, I’ve always liked Kandi though I stopped watching RHOA a long time ago.
Kandi gonna name that baby MAMA JOYCE….and then get a Nanny named MISS SHARON.
This is why I dislike Kandi and Todd so much. its going too far and like other reality stars like Bierman, Leakes, etc., she will make herself irrelevant.
Nothing says love like a band-aid baby. Congrats to the happy couple.
Hahahahahahaha
I am hoping for a boysince they both have girls. I hope they have been working on their marital issues as well.
Congrats I guess. I hope they can manage to stay civil and mature for the baby’s sake.
Yay! Kandi
God bless Todd and Kandi. Please take care of yourself Kandi. Don’t let your family stress you out; especially that mother of yours!!!!
I am happy to hear the news for the couple. From a business standpoint…the countdown to irrelevancy starts one season after they air the birth…
Mama Joyce is somewhere sucking on oxygen at the possibility of a short big headed boy! Why, why, why did they procreate when they can’t even communicate in their marriage? Kayla is probably excited. Riley is id’ing all of her stuff and seeing down ground rules outnumbered what she will and will not do.
I posted a few months ago how preganant Kandi looked when TT blogged about her on WWHL…she was wearing a bone colored maternity looking dress… She had to be at LEAST three months at that time.
Oops…forgot to say congratulations Kandi …Just be careful Kandi with, the baby, your family and Todd The opportunist. I would hate to see him pull a Halle Berry..Just be careful….a child in this marriage has a price tag attached and Todd Tucker loves that money you have girl…
i don’t think Todd is with Kandi for money.
As much as I admire a proponent of eugenics, mama Joyce will kill any joy this baby might have brought this struggling family.
Unfortunately I do not think this is Kandi’s shtick, I believe when she was crying on WWHL about the public reaction to MJ, it was 100% real. Kandi is not known for her acting.
I don’t know. Maybe I just do t pay that much attention (and yeah, I surely put my hands over my ears and uulate whenever she talks about having sex or not having sex), but it doesn’t seem to me like their marriage is that broken. They have shit that they deal with. Mama Joyce makes Endora look like Aunt Bee. And teenage girls are a pain in the ass. They are both kind of in show business, which is stressy. She makes more money than he does and that is NEVER easy for a man no matter how secure he is. So they have disagreements. Anyone here Whois married not have disagreements? I dare you to lie. It takes time to get past some of those stress points in a relationship. And they really have not been together all that long. I really think a baby is going to make a lot of dumbness that they quibble over go away. It solidifies two people like nothing else can. Luckily, they are in a good place, health and wealth wise and they can really enjoy this baby together.
I disagree with the notion that it’s NEVER easy for a man to deal with a woman being the breadwinner. Maybe that is for some stupid machismo shit but I know plenty of dudes (and I count myself among them) that don’t mind a sugar mama at all. Doesn’t affect my manhood. I say thank you for taking care of me.
I disagree too. Speaking from personal experience, I can also say that any problems you have in your marriage generally become BIGGER in times of stress. So while a baby is a great joy, they also disrupt your life 100%. Try dealing with your sh*t on no sleep and with a demanding little crying creature that’s wholly dependent upon you…not a good combo. In fact, it helped to expedite the end of my marriage.
The fact that you just called someone a “sugarmomma” complete contradicts you and proves me right. As always.
@TeeCee66
totally OT -your post to the gypsy, correcting her grammar -hilarious 🙂
Tanya, I don’t think you should place your sucking at life at others’ feet. Just because you failed, you think others will too?
Won’t affect his “manhood” to have a ” sugarmama”… If you have or desire to have a sugarmama then you have little manhood to speak of @kkarl.
Tamara, I definitely believe she was holding out for yet another storyline and possible SPIN OFF show called “Kandi’s having a baby.” LOL – Kandi is ALWAYS grinding for that next dollar!
Oh I am sure she will get a baby spinoff. Bravo LOVES her spinoff. Sometimes I wonder if she puts money into them herself since the ratings are not great enough to warrant all the shows she has gotten.

I can’t imagine why two 40+/- somethings who don’t really get along, have almost grown children and busy careers would want to take on the responsibility of a baby. Bring on the round-the-clock nannies.
I agree my girls are 19 and 15 there is no way in hell I’d start over with an infant again oh no no
Kandi is in her mid-30s.
Kand is 39.
I looked her birthday up before posting my comment above. Kandi was born on May 17, 1976, so she is 39, knocking on 40’s door. I believe Todd is 41.
Let’s just wish Todd and Kandi the best! I really hope they continue to work on their union!
We’ll see if Kandi can count pregnancies like Phaedra did…
Normally it is stupid to bring a child into a relationship that isnt solid. Babies are stressful and if you arent solid it can hasten a marriage’s demise. However, Kandi has money and can afford help. Todd doesnt have to work.
I do think that she should revise the prenup to give Todd a settlement. He is looking at eating dog food if she divorces him 20 yrs down the line. He needs to work yet she wants him home. Cant have it both ways.
Kandi said she spoke with Bethenney about her prenup so I think there may be some sort of provision for custody. Otherwise, Todd could ask for custody and ask for spousal support AND child support and refuse to leave the house. Hmmm…sounds familiar. Then again Todd seems too proud of a man for that manuever.
Oh, I forgot. Congratulations to the happy couple!! If a girl dont name her Joyce or Lenethia. If a boy dont name him Apollo.
I think it may be less storyline and more that she wanted to wait until she was far enough not to worry about miscarriage. I dont see them as being that calculating…
Very funny, i can’t stop laughing at some of the comments. Knowing how Kandi uses any opportunity to make an extra bulk and am waiting to see how this play out. In my head who wants to bring a child in a relationship that’s shaking. Kandi is playing the avoidance card, ignore her marital issues. I don’t know if some of these antics are show driven or lack good judgement
I don’t even know what to think. It’s hard for me to imagine Kandi getting pregnant to insure herself a story line. I could see Joyce doing it because she is so devoted to money, but Kandi? I also think Kandi is always on the lookout for an opportunity, so I’m on the fence about this one. Still, I’m sure she and Todd will love this baby, and I hope the best for them.
*ensure…sigh…
The baby isn’t storyline. She had multiple surgeries trying to get her parts in working order. I think eventually they went with IVF. It’s been a long process.
I do think they exaggerate their marital problems for the camera. I do not think the prenup was for the show. I do think the prenup did some damage to the relationship.
Let’s hope they survive the Bravo marriage curse.

Amen to that.
hopefully a lot of their problems are for the camera? Good luck to them!
I will admit to not watching rhoa much anymore, it got to ghetto for me. I do like Kandi and have watched her work her buns off, she is a hustler and not in the bad way. That girl is a worker and has been smart money wise, with the exception of her mother and daughter, she has spoiled them terribly. I have watched hit and miss and mostly stayed up to date due to the recaps here and I feel like they do love each other very much. Mama Joyce is a snatch who will try and take Todd to task for his anchor baby and it will upset more of her chances to push him out. The teens are spoiled snots and will have a huge issue with sharing the attention with the baby. And as for the whole men like to make more money thing, they do, when the recession put a crimp in the timber industry and me working part time as a hairdresser making more money than my hubby was hard for him to take. He is old school and more traditional and is a hunter gatherer type and I think in some respects Todd is the same way. He is cool with it as long as it isn’t rammed down his throat, I mean he entered into this relationship knowing the income balance was out of his favor. The marriage issues seem to be more storyline in my opinion with the exception of mama Joyce, she is just a hateful greedy cunt.
Hmm, I don’t know that I can picture Riley being “happy” about these news…
I am so happy for her… i’m not sure Todd really wanted another child but Kandi did. I felt this relationship would be hard pressed to make it due to Kandi’s mother’s antics and the behavior Kandi has to always give her mother a pass … but the one thing i do respect is she is adament in her mind to not be divorced.. so i think Kandi would go through great lengths to make it work.. more so than Todd… so may God bless them both!! But Kandi’s daughter seems really odd to me…… ?
