S01E01 Welcome One, Welcome ATL

In the debut episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta, DeShawn, an NBA wife, and her family visit their newly constructed mansion for the first time, sparking her quest to find the ideal staff to manage the household. Meanwhile, real estate mogul Lisa is navigating the challenges of juggling her career and motherhood, with her NFL husband lending his support. After an arduous three-year divorce from former NFL player Bob Whitfield, Shereé is throwing a lavish birthday celebration at her home to mark her fresh start, demanding perfection from her team to ensure every detail is just right—from the Louis Vuitton cake to the exclusive guest list. All the Housewives, including NeNe, who has unresolved issues with Shereé, are invited. Meanwhile, Kim, the glamorous blonde dating a secretive millionaire known as "Big Papa," meets NeNe for lunch to strategize their grand entrance at Shereé's party, but chaos ensues when one of them discovers they’re not on the guest list.
