Marlo Hampton Just Experienced an Exciting Relationship “First” with Scotley
The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member found a special way to show Scotley Innis “another chapter in [her] life.”
Marlo Hampton just took an exciting step in her budding relationship with Scotley Innis.
On Episode 16 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Marlo was hard at work in her Le'Archive showroom when Scotley stopped by to see her business.
“Even though I’m not ready for Scotley to meet my two babies, [my nephews] Michael and William, he definitely can meet my baby Le'Archive,” she said in an interview during the episode, which aired on August 27. “This is the first time I’ve ever brought a guy who I’m interested in or dating to Le'Archive.”
She added, “It took a while for me to share it with Scotley, but I was like, ‘You know what? Let me tell him about another chapter in my life.’”
Scotley seemed very impressed by the business, which Marlo explained earlier in the episode is doing “amazing right now.”
“I’m the head of wardrobe for Tami Roman. I was on set doing a movie with Cynthia [Bailey]. Also, I was featured in the magazine Simply Buckhead, darling,” she said. “So we’re just growing.”
What is Le'Archive?
In 2020, Marlo launched Le'Archive, a fashion showroom that has more than 5,000 luxury designer items available for rent, all curated by Marlo. According to its website, the business is “strictly open to wardrobe [stylists], fashion directors, costume designers, tastemakers, and creative directors only.”
In a 2022 interview with Vogue, Marlo opened up about how being the primary caretaker for Michael and William inspired her to start the business. “One day, I was [lying] down thinking, what am I going to do? I think I may be a full-time munty,” she said. “I had all these clothes upstairs. I knew I wasn’t selling them on eBay, but I had to take care of these boys. At first, I was like, ‘Okay, maybe you should sell them.’”
“But then immediately I said, ‘There’s no way I can sell them,’” she continued. “I kept thinking, ‘That’s my first gown from Paris I purchased 10 years ago. There’s no way I can sell this or this PVC bag that no one can get. That’s like $10,000 or $11,000.’ So, as I was [lying] down, I said I’m going to start a showroom where you can rent these clothes.”
Marlo Hampton’s mother reacts to Le'Archive
As RHOA viewers saw during Season 14, Marlo also took a major step in her relationship with her mother when she brought her to Le'Archive while seeing her for the first time in three years.
“It reminds me, somewhat, of your closet as a little girl,” her mom, Emma, said, later adding, “I’m proud of you. You’re doing this.”
