Kenya Moore became a mother at 47. She was undoubtedly about to embark on a new chapter, which included motherhood, perimenopause, and a thriving career. And while the Housewives of Atlanta alum thought turning 50 would shift her career, she realized she had nothing to worry about.
In an interview with Glamour, the actress said, “I thought that I would not be considered for certain jobs and people would think, Oh, she’s dried up, she’s old,” Moore says. “But the world changed for the better—it was completely opposite of my fears. I’ve never been so busy in my life. People seem to really respect where I am and where I’ve come from. I feel so strong and powerful.”
