"Basketball Wives: LA" is back for a fourth season with new cast members and lots of drama. The show took a long break, but the ladies are currently filming scenes for the VH1 show. According to Reality Tea, two ladies were fired and four newbies were added to the cast.
Sources told the site that producers booted Sundy Carter and Brittish Williams, both of whom were introduced in Season 3. Brittish was let go because of her on-camera feud with fan-favorite Draya Michele which reportedly escalated behind the scenes.
"Basically when Brittish and Draya were feuding Brittish thought that the best revenge would be to purchase the trademark of Mint Swim, which is Draya's swimwear line. Brittish has since apologized and returned the trademark back over to Draya but it was too little too late since the incident didn't sit well with Draya or the producers," the source told Reality Tea.
Brittish took to Twitter and explained that she wasn't trying to be mean but wanted to teach Draya a lesson. The stunt backfired and producers decided not to ask her back for Season 4. Sources told Reality Tea that Sundy was fired because she wasn't connecting with the fans last season and she was beefing with some of the other ladies.
"Draya, Brandi and Malaysia wanted nothing to do with her after the comments she made about both Draya and Brandi," the source said.
"Being that Draya is a fan favorite of the show, once you are her enemy you end up fired which is the case for Sundy and Brittish," the source continued. "The only ladies returning are Draya, Malaysia [Pargo], Brandi [Maxiell] and Jackie."
Because two cast members were fired, producers are adding four ladies to the Season 4 cast. Surprisingly, Reality Tea claims Shaunie O'Neal is back and the other ladies - Patrice Curry, Meghan James and Angel Brinks - have to battle it out for the two full-time gigs.
Patrice is married to former NBA star Eddy Curry and is extremely religious. Meghan used to date basketball player Quincy Miller and was on Season 9 of "Bad Girls Club" and Angel is best friends with Draya.
"This season is said to be about showcasing the women's businesses but what you can really expect is this season to be similar to the current season of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' where all the women are fighting to secure a spot on the show," the source said.
