Real Housewives of Dallas' D'Andra Simmons Reveals Breast Cancer Diagnosis, Undergoes 3 Procedures
The Real Housewives of Dallas alum D'Andra Simmons has been diagnosed with breast cancer. 'Today is the day! I didn't think I would be the recipient of care at the UTSW Simmons Cancer Center my uncle Harold Simmons and his Foundation established almost 30 years ago, but now I have breast cancer,' Simmons, 56, captioned an Instagram post on Tuesday, July 29. 'I am truly grateful to have such an excellent care team in place. I'm the 3rd woman on my mother's side of the family to be diagnosed with breast cancer … that we know about.' Before revealing she underwent three separate surgeries on Tuesday, Simmons told fans that she would add 'breast cancer survivor to a long list of life experiences' in her life. 'I look forward to telling my story to inspire others in the future,' Simmons concluded. 'Thank you to everyone that has sent prayers and support to my family and me. We appreciate it so very much and love having your support.' Former 'Real Housewives of Dallas' Stars: Where Are They Now? Simmons subsequently offered several updates throughout the day. 'Today is the day! On the way to the hospital to have my breast cancer surgery. Ready to get phase one over with,' Simmons captioned an Instagram Story image on Tuesday. Her next post was a video that came as Simmons was seated in a 'private waiting room' ahead of the first procedure — seed localization. 'They go in there and they put a marker in my breast where the tumor is. That way, when the surgeon goes in, they'll know exactly where to take the tumor out,' Simmons said, noting that the 'second procedure' will 'light up the lymph nodes so the surgeon knows which ones to take out.' She completed a total of three procedures on Tuesday. Another Instagram Story video revealed that Simmons had her mom, Dee Simmons, by her side ahead of the second procedure. Stars Who Beat Breast Cancer: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Cynthia Nixon and More "Were finding your sentinel lymph nodes,' a medical professional could be heard saying in the background.

'At least my good friend @debbfarrmd is doing my surgery today!' Simmons was a main cast member on RHOD from the show's second season, which aired in 2017, until the Bravo series ended following season 5 in 2021. Solve the daily Crossword

Reality TV star Jojo Robinson reflects on her RHOD journey
She is known for her bubbly, colourful personality and recently her tumultuous friendship with fellow co-star Nonku Williams. Season 5 of Real Housewives of Durban ended with explosive drama that had South Africa talking for weeks. After publicly sharing news of her friendship breakup with Nonku Williams on Instagram, it didn't take long for the two former best friends to reconcile and let bygones be bygones. TV reality star Jojo Robinson reflects on Season 5 of RHOD and how much she has grown since joining the show. Now that Season 5 has wrapped, how do you feel about it? Apart from a few hard things, I enjoyed this season. I loved getting to know the new girls. How have you changed since your first season? I am literally a whole new person. I wouldn't even know where to start. And I look forward to the growth that will come with everything that happened in Season 5. Read more | RHOD Jojo and Nonku Williams rekindle their friendship How do you deal with all the attention you get from being on the show? It's become normal life for me. I'm always happy and grateful to meet anyone who loves the show. Who is the most surprising celebrity you've connected with because of the show? Where would I even start? Through this journey, I've met most of our celebrities, and honestly, it would be hard to pick just one. I absolutely love Khanyi Mbau. We speak often and get compared to being sisters a lot. What has been your favourite moment on the show? From Season 5, that would be our vow renewal in episode 1. Also, reuniting with Sorisha and finding a way to a friendship again. How do you feel about where you and Nonku stand today? I'm appreciative of the years we spent together and the love I had for her. The time we spent together, I saw as sisterhood, and I'm grateful for that. I wish her nothing but love and peace. What do you hope for the group moving forward? To maintain peace, find real healing for those who need it, and continue to grow as a group. As hectic as we all are together, it's our little bond. If there was a Season 6, who would be in your dream cast? I think it's best we let the professionals decide on whoever they think is best suited. If Season 5 were a cosmetic procedure, what would it be and why? A tummy tuck, painful AF, but worth it in the end.

She wants an apology, and she wants it now! Media personality Londie London is demanding a public apology from radio personality Minnie Ntuli. Following an intense episode 2 of The Real Housewives of Durban reunion, Londie has taken a firm stance against Minnie, demanding a public apology for the physical assault and defamatory remarks she endured on the show. Read more | 'I reached out privately to apologise' – Minnie Ntuli clears the air on Londie London beef Throughout season 5 of RHOD, viewers have seen Minnie and Londie at loggerheads with each other after the Suk'emabhozeni hitmaker commented on Minnie's dress at their first-ever meet-up on the show. Things quickly got out of hand when Minnie made condescending and demeaning comments about how Londie allegedly makes her money, which many thought was distasteful. Additionally, during episode 2 of the reunion, host MaBlerh aired 'unseen footage' of the two attempting a sit-down to resolve their differences on their Maldives trip during the show. The footage revealed a heated exchange between the two, with Minnie confronting and physically assaulting Londie by repeatedly poking her forehead while Londie did not retaliate. Viewers of the show have condemned Minnie's actions and praised Londie's poise during the altercation. Minnie didn't attend the reunion but made attempts to apologise to Londie; however, despite her apologies, including a message she sent that was read aloud to Londie by Angel Ndlela during the reunion, Londie still feels her efforts aren't enough and a public apology is necessary to match the public nature of the humiliation she endured. Read more | 'Where's the accountability?' - RHOD viewers react to latest reunion episode Londie has therefore, through her lawyers, Lamula KB Attorneys, given Minnie an ultimatum to record a 'sincere video apology' and to post it on all her social media platforms by 17h00 today, Wednesday, July 16, 2025.
