A promo for this week’s episode shows Kenya breaking down in a therapy session sharing what she needed from her mother who was never there for her.
She shared she yearned for: “Acknowledgment… It’s beyond not being there. It’s the treatment- the treating me like I was invisible. My whole family sat back and watched my own mother be cruel to me, and I wasn’t protected…
Kenya told the therapist how she responded to feeling vulnerable: “I got into trouble all the time. I fought all the time. And I just started skipping school. ANd I dated a man that was 11 years older than me at 15. And he was physically abusive to me.”
On RHOA Kenya has been dealing with the continued fallout of her for bringing her daughter on the girls’ getaway.
Kenya subsequently tweeted of her decision to bring Brooklyn on the trip: “I did apologize. This is purely disrespectful, passive-aggressive and nasty. I don’t have help at home. I put my child FIRST. Brooklyn will always be No. 1.
“I have taken my child on every single cast trip. We don’t need permission to bring our children. If they wanted their children their [sic], they would be there.”
In late January, Kenya and Marc officially called it quits, a year after the couple first announced their separation.
Marc released a statement his marriage to the Bravo star has ended for the second time following a failed attempt to rekindle their romance.
He told The Root: “After recently attending mediation, Kenya and I have agreed to end our marriage.”
He continued: “I will always have great care for her and look forward to amicably continuing to co-parent our daughter Brooklyn with an abundance of love and wisdom.”
In 2018, Kenya, 50, gave birth to the couple’s first and only child – a daughter named Brooklyn Doris Daly.
The pair first announced they split in September 2019 but later reconciled.
On this year’s premiere Kenya said: “We have been separated well over ten months and I have Brooklyn with me 100 percent of the time.
“And I feel like I need to have custody issues settled before I file for divorce.”
