Cynthia Bailey is in the midst of filming Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, but she sat down for an interview with Ebony recently and didn’t hold back when asked about Sheree Whitfield’s abrupt departure from the show, which Wetpaint Entertainment reported exclusively earlier this year.

When asked about the fact that Sheree wasn’t going to return for RHoA Season 5, Cynthia revealed, “Sheree and I were never really close friends on the show, but I never want anyone to — I mean — if it was her choice not to come back, then great, but I never want to see someone get fired.”

She continues, “You know, this is our livelihood. This is how we work, so, regardless of whether or not I’m friendly with them, I know it’s a job for them. I never want to stop someone from getting a check.“
