Royce Reed Quits Reality TV, Confirms She Won’t Be On ‘Basketball Wives Miami’

Apparently, there rumors were true. After 4 seasons, reality star Royce Reed will not be returning to VH1’s Basketball Wives’ Miami. This summer, we shared rumors that Royce, Jennifer Williams and Kesha (who had only been on one season) were given pink slips. It’s no secret, that for the past few seasons, tension has increased between the show’s executive producer, Shaunie O’Neal, along with cast mate Evelyn Lozada.

Royce confirmed the news on twitter, explaining that she’ll be continuing with other business ventures.

So what’s the reason for Royce’s departure? An official statement from VH1, Royce, nor Shaunie has been released. However, it’s no secret that at one point, Shaunie did complain that Royce’s story-line for the show as limited because she couldn’t film or mention her relationship with ex-boyfriend/baby-daddy NBA baller Dwight Howard. So who will replace Royce? Again, no official/confirmed report(s). However, rumor has it that there will be TWO new women, one of whom is a real basketball wife. Anywho, what do you think of Royce’s departure? Will the show suffer or was it time for Royce to exit stage left?

    I never heard Shaunie mention Shaq’s name(but she may have). So what’s the difference. Shanuie’s children were not continually on the show. Hell Shaunie wasn’t really a storyline either. We just know she is one of the producers of the show. She only popped in and out while instigating. The only “WIFE” that really had a consistent story about her spouse was Jennifer. Maybe because she was still officially married and not an “EX” at the time.

    They all had a problem with Royce from the very beginning, I don’t think it had anything to do with Dwight Howard. The fact all of them thought she was a young groupie/dancer and crossed some BBW code they didn’t want to deal with her. They made Royce the “SPOKESGROUPIE” for all the women who may have slept with their men. lol. Just because some of them were “supposedly fiancees'” and waited decades to be wived doesn’t make them better than her.

    They never liked her. I am glad she has sense enough to want to move on from the foolishness. Her success will come for loving what she does. Not pleasing and padding other people’s pocket.

    I really don’t think anyone cares if Royce or Keisha leaves the show. They both are a bunch of boring bitches and as scary as Keisha is Im still confused as to why she was even on the show in the first place. She seems to love playing the victim well victims don’t place themselves in certain situations.
