Shereé Whitfield’s life has taken some unexpected changes during Season 15 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. In addition to having a new relationship, she’s also busy with her fashion brand and her family, and she’s on a journey with her health. Fans learned more about her health issues during one of Shereé’s doctor’s appointments on RHOA Season 15 Episode 4, which aired May 28.

“I’m getting older,” she said before noting that she thought menopause would change her cycle. “But these fibroids are awful… It’s f-cking up my love life, [be]cause have you seen my man [Martell Holt]?”

From there, her doctor noted that “the good thing is that there’s so many options” before laying out some treatment plans for the RHOA cast member to “remove just the fibroids.” Her recovery includes no intimacy and no working out for an extended amount of time. “No sex, no exercise — those are my two favorite things,” Shereé jokes in an interview.

Is Shereé Pregnant?

And while Shereé did go into the appointment for a serious reason, that doesn’t mean her doctor didn’t take the time to have a little fun with her. During an ultrasound, in which she discovered a “couple lemon-sized fibroids,” she used the serious moment to prank the RHOA cast member about a possible pregnancy. “You’ve been trying,” the doctor teased as she looked at the ultrasound, to which Shereé responded, “Trying for what?”

“I’m just messing with you,” the doctor clarified.

All joking aside, Shereé made it clear in her confessional that now is not the right time for her to have surgery to deal with the fibroids issue. “I don’t really want to have a major surgery,” she said. “I got so much going on, I really need to focus on She by Shereé and growing the business. I don’t really have time to be down for eight weeks. I’m thinking I need to explore more options.”

More on Shereé’s Relationship with Martell Holt

As previously mentioned, Shereé has been dating Martell Holt, and he has made appearances on RHOA in Season 15 (and he’s caused quite a buzz among the group).

Shereé revealed more about her boyfriend in an interview with Essence“I think it’s going great with Martell. We’re really good friends. We enjoy our time when we’re together. He makes me laugh so much and that’s one of the things I really like about him. And I’m just kind of taking everything slow and enjoying life. Did I think at this age I would be out here dating? No, absolutely not. But things happen,” she said. “I’m never closed off to finding the one or love. And so I’m just on my journey trying to be intentional and just making sure I got the right person.”

Shereé’s Life as a Grandma

While the doctor managed to pull a prank on Shereé about a baby surprise, the RHOA cast member did recently welcome a baby into her life when her son, Kairo Whitfield, became a dad to daughter Mecca Joie. Shereé introduced viewers to her granddaughter earlier this season on RHOA.

She has also opened up about her life as a grandmother when speaking to Essence.

“No, my name is Glamma. She’s going to call me GG, which stands for Gorgeous Glamma. But when I tell you, first of all, it was a total surprise to me. I didn’t plan on being a Glamma this early. But I’m so, so happy she’s here. I mean, me and my family have always been very close and loving, but she brings another element of love and closeness to my family. She is incredible. I mean, she’s growing so fast and I can’t wait. She’s going to be my little partner. That’s what I’m going to call her. We going to run these streets. I cannot wait,” Shereé said. “I can’t even explain. People say when you have a grandbaby that it’s even more special than your children. You put a little more into it. And I did not believe that. She can’t do no wrong by me, probably because I get to send her back every now and then. But she can’t do no wrong. She’s amazing. She’s incredible.”
