Kaela, the daughter of Todd Tucker, who is married to Riley’s mom, RHOA alum Kandi Burruss, shared: “I went up there to defend my sister… but of course, that was cut. Why was that cut? I have no idea… they took it out,”

Throughout the debut season, Riley repeatedly stood up for herself amid what many viewers interpreted as racially charged remarks. At one point, cast members accused her of being “angry” and of “accosting” a castmate’s friend, claiming she rolled her neck and was rude upon meeting her for the first time.
