Did Kim Fields Threaten Kenya Moore?

Kelly Bensimon faced her fair share of drama during her tenure on The Real Housewives of New York City. So when a fan headed to Twitter to take shots at Kenya Moore after Part 1 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion aired, the RHONY alum was more than willing to come to her defense. A follower shared that she believes that "@KenyaMoore is more delusional & rude than @SonjatMorgan @ramonasinger @kellybensimon @AvivaDrescher & @CountessLuann COMBINED," but Kelly jumped in to clear the air and tried to explain just how hard it is to live your life in front of the cameras. "I like @kenyamoore. I find her very genuine," Kelly wrote. "Its hard to be genuine on any Housewives shows. Give her a break."

After another fan reacted to that sentiment, Kelly also shared an equally-warm opinion of RHOA rookie, Kim Fields, and had some friendly advice for anyone who takes it all too seriously. "I love @kimvfields too. Shes an amazing mom. Its just tv. I don't take it seriously, you shouldn't either," she wrote, after a fan commended Kim for "put[ting] her in her place" during the reunion, clip above.

Part 2 of the RHOA reunion airs Sunday at 8/7c. Check out a preview below.
