Bravo Media LLC and production company Truly Original LLC are being sued by a castmate on the most recent season of Real Housewives of Atlanta over allegations she was victimized by “revenge porn.”
Brittany Eady claims that in June of 2024, a castmate named Kenya Moore published to a group of hundreds of live onlookers, and the defendants’ cameras, a photograph of a woman engaged in a graphic sex act and told the audience the woman was Eady, which wasn’t true, according to the lawsuit filed Thursday with the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Despite initially recognizing the depravity of Moore’s sexual harassment of Eady, Bravo and Truly Original allegedly made the “disgusting decision to leverage it at Eady’s great expense” by pressuring her to discuss the incident and her sexual history on camera over Eady’s persistent objections.
Defendants knew “immediately” that Moore’s photo presentation was “beyond the pale, hugely improper, and well beyond the show’s standards, expectations, and stated sexual harassment policies,” the suit alleges.
Bravo and Truly Original “sought to gaslight Eady into thinking it was in her interest to discuss these highly-personal sexual issues,” Eady says.
The defendants then “twisted the knife” in another “grotesque display” of sexual harassment and retaliation, by telling Eady that they were planning to invite Moore back to the show for the following season, and that if Eady wanted to be on the show next season, she would have to do so alongside Moore, “her harasser,” Eady says.
Eady, a member of the hit show’s Season 16 cast, announced in July that she wouldn’t be returning for Season 17, according to her suit.
A June 5 notice filed with the New York Supreme Court on June 5 described some of the same allegations as Eady’s federal suit, but that state proceeding was discontinued Thursday.
Eady alleges that Bravo and Truly Original violated New York State and City and Atlanta sex discrimination laws and committed retaliation, negligence, breach of contract, breach of “fair dealing,” and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Eady seeks compensatory damages, including backpay and front pay and past, present, and future pain, suffering, and other hardships arising from Bravo’s and Truly Original’s conduct; punitive damages; and costs of the suit, including attorneys’ fees.
NBCUniversal Executive Vice President Jennifer Geisser declined comment on behalf of Bravo. Attorneys for Eady, and spokespeople with Truly Original didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
Bloch & White LLP represents Eady.
The case is Eady v. Truly Original LLC, S.D.N.Y., No. 1:25-cv-09683, complaint 11/20/25.
