"I need to do better. I can't promise you I'll turn the other cheek if I'm slapped, (don't suggest anyone try me, I'm not there yet) but be patient ya'll, God is still working on me," she wrote in her blog Musings From the Boudoir. "So… I apologize for my part in this shameful drama that reinforces stereotypes about who we are as black women. And pray that one day we'll realize nobody wins when even one of us loses."
Hampton went on to apologize to multiple personalities from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta"-- both past and present. She also apologized to the bridesmaids that fans may have witnessed her have issues with while serving as Leakes bridesmaid last year in the latter's spinoff series "I Dream of NeNe."
"To all the RHOA/Bridesmaids I have offended: Phaedra, Kandi, Kim, Sheree, Diana, Pat and NeNe, I apologize. We may never be friends or see eye to eye on anything, (and I'm cool with that!) however, I don't need to tear you down to build myself up," Hampton wrote. "I know who I am – The Diva, Marlo Patrice Hampton and I am the spotlight, but so are you. Let's all bask in it. God made sure there would be enough shine for all of us."
