On the Sunday night episode of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," new cast member Kim Fields earned the respect of the other housewives when she successfully directed a commercial for cast mate Cynthia Bailey's eyewear line, but Kenya Moore stooped to a new low when she spread rumors about Field's husband out of jealousy over the former "The Facts of Life" star's credentials.
Cynthia Bailey
Once Bailey patched up her relationship with OG cast member NeNe Leakes, she invited her along on the girls' trip to Jamaica where she wanted to shoot the commercial for her eyewear line. But before she got to work on the ad, she took a bus to Kingston to visit her husband Peter Thomas' family. During the trip she got emotional over the falling out with her former best friend, Moore, and agreed to try to patch things up with her when she got back to the resort. The following day - and under Fields' direction - Bailey shot her commercial in one day and to celebrate, Bailey's husband decided to arrange a wrap party for the women.

Moore was still resentful of Bailey after she hired Fields to direct her commercial instead of her. But after Bailey's return from Kingston, mutual friend Leakes stopped by Moore's room and invited her out for drinks with the other ladies, including Bailey. Once she started feeling comfortable around the women again, Moore brought up rumors she allegedly heard about Fields' husband, Christopher Morgan, and his sexuality. Moore alleged that Morgan is gay and the other women joked about him, which made Bailey and cast member Sheree Whitfield uncomfortable since Fields wasn't there to defend her husband.

After Moore disrespected her space during a heated argument in the previous episode, Fields confided in her husband who gave her advice on how to handle the drama. Fields recollected herself and successfully directed Bailey's eyewear commercial, guiding each shot with a detailed eye and an enthusiastic attitude. She even averted a crisis by getting all of the shots she needed before a rainstorm could stop the production. At the party Thomas threw for the ladies to congratulate them on a successful shoot, Fields sat with the other women and they praised her husband Morgan for being "cool" and "funny." But Whitfield, who said in her on-camera interview that she is "allergic to fake sh-t," decided to be honest with Fields and told her about the rumors Moore spread about Morgan's sexuality. "I just want to let you know," Whitfield told Fields, "that some of the things that were said last night were about your husband being fruity or gay."
