Yep you’re seeing this right, Kim Fields will be rubbing elbows and hopefully NOT trading blows with the rest of The Real Housewives Of Atlanta cast.

Here is what PerezHilton reported about Kim’s leap into the world of reality entertainment:

It looks like they’ve found their replacement for Claudia Jordan!

Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Kim Fields is joining the cast of the Real Housewives Of Atlanta!

The actress is famous for playing Tootie on The Facts of Life, which aired on NBC, so the move over to Bravo makes perfect sense.

This is seriously the best casting news we’ve heard all year!

I’ve gotta admit that I’m a little surprised that the RHOA producers even cast someone like Kim Fields, but maybe they’re looking for more women who can bring a sense of balance and poise to the contrasting big personalities of Kenya Moore and Nene Leakes. Looking forward to seeing Kim Fields open up about her life on RHOA. On a side, note, Kim is only getting better with time isn’t she? Check her out at 46! Looking good Mrs. Fields!

As many of you may recall in 2013, she gave birth to her son, 1 and a half year old Quincy, at the age of 45. Quincy is Kim’s and and her husband, Broadway actor Christopher Morgan’s second born child. They’re first child, Sebastian, was born in 2007, just two months before Kim and Christopher were married by gospel singer, Donnie McClurkin.

Maybe we’ll be meeting Kim and her fam’ on the show, but in the meantime let’s just hope that she doesn’t end up having to throw a shoe upside somebody’s head for disrespecting her. Y’all know some of those reality show cast members know how to push the most laid back person to the limit. They don’t wanna make Kim have to whip out one of her ‘Regine’ “don’t play with me” looks…LOL.

ILOSM fam’ tell us what you think about Kim’s decision to join the Real Housewives Of Atlanta cast.
