Well spoken Andy! Kandi's exit is how a savy business person should conduct. It's obvious Andy was speaking from the heart, no written notes, and as a friend, and associate. I am sure both parties been a blessing to each other, and having an open door invitation to return if desired speaks volume. Nene should take note if she haven't already learned by now. Humility is priceless, and is a trait in some humans in our species, but if we all could achieve it, and keep it, we could be alot further in a plethora of things than we are.

Honestly, I'm only happy if that's what she wants... but for the franchise, this is a BIG loss for me. When Kandi joined, I remember watching her interview on Wendy Williams and Wendy was commenting on the shadiness that some fall into to seem more "entertaining" once they join the reality tv realm and Kandi said something to the effect of "well, I guess I'll just have to show them how to keep it real".... something smoothe like that.... in that moment I respected her fully and she has only given me more reasons to respect her. Outside of coming into the show as a decorated and celebrated singer and songwriter (as well as all the other stuff she was doing at the time) she ALSO came onto the show and showed us how moguls mogul. She started so many businesses, one from lemons (the sxx dungeon), one to put her her family on (OLG).... I could really wax poetic because I realise how much I admire this woman. She is the ONLY person on TV that really has shown how to secure, collect and grow the bag. Literally unmatched in showing all the aspects of her life. Even when they tried the scandal route with her, she prevailed. Honestly a woman after my own heart.... an absolute role model. Even in getting married, she made great decisions. She was clear about her position on things and has built a partnership. I'm not saying its perfect, i just admire her position therein. Kandi truly has no time for the bs too, being so busy and building means they can squabble without her. I do think the network took too long to announce what was going to happen with the franchise and a woman like Kandi is NOT going to wait for anybody to tell her about her money. She had too much time to think about something else and her elevation is probably more about being with the really big big boys in business now. Andy briefly mentioned about partnership with the network, that seems very much like a plausible option and probably quite likely if he's saying it "in public". She's such a force. I literally want to be her when I grow up (the singing part is out though, she wins there) lol
