Summary

The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Mike Hill steps Behind The Rope. He is back! First things first, we catch up with Mike on all that he has been up to since the last time he was here - Mike is the Morning TV Host Of “Start Your Day” and has taken up acting a la “Misunderstood”, a local LA play and the upcoming “Foster Law” in which he plays Judge Earl Johnson. Mike talks about his best selling book, “Open Mike” which was the cathartic journey he needed in life to clear mental health, a topic often stigmatized amongst “straight bros”, particularly straight hetero men of color. Mike also chats about what it was like to celebrate his recent past one year wedding anniversary. Mike talks married life to Cynthia - the challenges, how these two lovebirds keep the spark alive, and what is the best thing about being married. Of course, the convo quickly turns to Mike and Cynthia’s life after The Real Housewives of Atlanta now that Cynthia has announced she will not be holding a peach when RHOA returns next season. Mike chats about highs and lows from their several year run on the hit Bravo franchise, his and Cynthia’s feelings about the end, what he will miss the most and least about filming with our fav Peach Holders, and the TRUTH behind Cynthia’s exit. Finally, last but certainly not least, we chat about what is next for Team Chill, where they will live now that they don’t need to be at Lake Bailey to film on a regular basis, and just what is next for Mike, and Cynthia. Might we see them back on Reality TV sooner than we all expected? Tune in to fine out. Thank you Mr. Hill for stopping by and being, well, an “Open Mike” (Available everywhere books are sold!). Much to our surprise and excitement, Mrs. Cynthia Bailey made a guest cameo appearance to discuss Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip (#RHUGT) - the unexpected friendships, fights and drama, the appearance of “50 Cynt” and where she stands now with out fav Island OG’s (yes Tre, we are giving this one to Melissa) @itsmikehill @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Brought To You By: SHIPSTATION - www.shipstation.com (60 Day Free Trial.
