Brooke Bailey is not returning to BBWLA.
“Basketball Wives” fans had mixed reactions to Brooke Bailey during the most recent season. Brooke has been grieving the death of her daughter, Kayla Bailey. She fell out with Jackie Christie because she didn’t think Jackie was there for her. Although they did agree to move forward, Brooke expressed at the reunion that she no longer sought a friendship with Jackie. All she wants is for them to be cordial.
Brooke also clashed plenty with Jackie’s friend, Cheyenne Bryant. They knew each other before filming the show. Brooke didn’t like that Cheyenne called her out during one of her events. At the time, Cheyenne asked attendees to stand up to honor a speaker. Brooke refused and Cheyenne thought this was rude. So she called out Brooke and an argument ensued. When Cheyenne told Brooke to leave, Brooke refused. As the drama went on, Cheyenne’s family tried to put hands on Brooke. Security stepped in and Brooke ended up leaving. At the height of their tension, Cheyenne and Brooke nearly came to blows during the girls’ trip. Cheyenne was trying to prevent Jackie and Brandi Maxiell from scrapping, but Brooke read it as Cheyenne and Jackie were trying to jump Brandi.
Some fans complained that Brooke had become exhausting to watch on the show. They said it may be time for Brooke to take a break from “Basketball Wives.” Others argued that Brooke was just being loyal to her friends and shouldn’t take a season off from filming.
Well, it looks like Brooke will not be on the upcoming season of “Basketball Wives.” Blogger Spilling BBW Tea was the first to break the news.

Evelyn confirmed Brooke’s departure while answering fan questions on Instagram. One of Evelyn’s followers asked if she will miss filming the show with Brooke, Evelyn answered yes.
“Are you gonna miss filming with Brooke on the show? Yes. Absolutely. I love Brooke. We talk, I actually talked to her today. We talk often,” Evelyn said.
She continued, “We have a friendship outside of the show. It’s not a forced friendship.”
Bring back Royce Reed so she can chew Evelyn up and spit her out
I see Royce making a guest appearance next season. It just makes sense.
Brooke and Evelyn both should be gone. Jackie is tiring as welll. Hopefully it’s a new storyline…
Brooke was draining I’m sorry.
I like Brooke 🤷♀️
I don’t think Brooke should have ever came back honestly. Royce, Tami, OG, and Laura are better picks.
