The 2026 legal season is heating up for\u00a0Real Housewives of Atlanta<\/em>\u00a0alum Kenya Moore<\/a>. Following reports that a Georgia judge ordered her to pay nearly six figures in back rent, the reality TV icon and entrepreneur is firing back.\u00a0Kenya Moore\u2019s salon, the Kenya Moore Hair Spa, has become the center of a contentious legal battle with landlord Northland Chamblee LLC. <\/p>\n

According to TheShadeRoom<\/a><\/em>, Moore insists the narrative being pushed in the media is only half the story. Taking to Instagram on Friday, Moore declared that the reports of her being behind on rent are not true and that she is actually the one who is owed money.<\/p>\n

The dispute dates back to October 2025, when Northland Chamblee LLC first sued Moore\u2019s company, Moore Vision Media. The landlord alleged that\u00a0Moore\u2019s salon, which had a drama-filled grand opening<\/a> in 2024, had ceased paying rent and utilities as far back as December 2024. <\/p>\n

According to\u00a0TMZ<\/a><\/em>, a judge recently sided with the landlord, ordering Moore to pay a total of $87,976. The judgment was split into two installments: $43,988 due by late February 2026, and a second payment of $43,988.67 due by late March. Additionally, the court ordered her to continue paying $5,500 in monthly rent to maintain possession of the property.<\/p>\n

However, Kenya Moore tells a much different story of contractual failure. According to her, she invested over $300,000 of her own capital to transform the commercial space from a \u201cwhite box\u201d into the luxury hair spa her fans see today.\u00a0Part of her lease agreement reportedly included a tenant improvement allowance, a common commercial real estate incentive where the landlord reimburses the tenant for a portion of construction costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy company is in an active lawsuit against my salon landlord for failing to pay nearly $80,000 in tenant improvement allowance OWED TO ME,\u201d Moore stated in an Instagram caption. She further explained that her decision to stop payments was a strategic business move rather than a sign of financial distress. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the landlord failed to reimburse contractual expenses, I withheld rent in an effort to reach a fair settlement, and subsequently filed a countersuit for the amount they failed to reimburse.\u201d<\/p>\n

The situation reached a boiling point this week when the landlord filed new documents claiming that <\/strong>Moore\u2019s salon\u00a0missed the first February deadline for the $43,988 payment.\u00a0Citing this missed deadline, Northland Chamblee LLC is now demanding immediate possession of the property, effectively seeking to evict the business.\u00a0The court has yet to rule on this request.<\/p>\n

Moore, never one to let a headline go unchallenged, has teased a YouTube livestream for Sunday where she plans to provide receipts and further details on the build-out of\u00a0Moore\u2019s salon. <\/p>\n

\u201cTo be a part of a club and not know what\u2019s going on in the club is crazy,\u201d she teased. <\/p>\n

While the landlord describes her as a less than respectful tenant, Moore frames herself as a savvy business owner standing up against a landlord who failed to honor a six-figure commitment. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
