The dynamic and drama-filled world of The Real Housewives of Potomac has returned with its highly anticipated ninth season, showcasing the lavish lives of Maryland’s elite housewives. The season made its debut on Sunday, October 6, 2024, airing at 8 pm ET/PT on Bravo. This iconic reality television franchise has expanded with various spin-offs, including those in New York, Orange County, and Beverly Hills.
In the ninth season, familiar faces such as Ashley Darby, Dr. Wendy Osefo, Gizelle Bryant, Karen Huger, and Mia Thornton are back, while new cast additions Keiarna Stewart, Stacey Rusch, Jacqueline Blake, and Jassi Rideaux are set to join the mix.
Mia, one of the standout personalities this season, is currently in a relationship with radio personality Inc. (also known as Incognito), a connection that dates back to their high school days in Columbus, Georgia.
Mia was previously married to Gordon Thornton in 2012, but the couple is now navigating their separation, which they announced in 2023. They share two children together. Notably, Mia confirmed her relationship with Inc on January 1, 2024.
Inc recently appeared on the January 22 episode of the podcast Reality with the King, hosted by Carlos King, where he reminisced about their first encounter at a mall where they both worked. During their chat, he humorously mentioned how he had to memorize Mia’s phone number since she hadn’t written it down.
The journey of Mia and Inc following high school
During the podcast conversation, Inc shared that he and Mia were high school sweethearts, even attending prom together. Their romance escalated quickly, leading them to live together in Charlotte, North Carolina, for a year post-graduation. However, after three and a half years, they parted ways as Inc chose to return to Georgia to pursue his career.
While Mia would eventually meet Gordon in Charlotte, she and Inc maintained a friendship over the years. Inc expressed that Mia was the “one that got away.”Following Mia’s split from Gordon, their paths crossed once again.
On March 25, Mia made an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where she candidly addressed her ongoing divorce from Gordon. She mentioned that while she was “still legally married to Gordon,”their relationship had concluded regardless of her connection with Inc.
Living in a modest penthouse in Washington, DC, Mia exuded happiness in her newfound love and emphasized their successful co-parenting arrangement, praising Gordon for his calm approach with their children.
Mia’s subtle reveal of Inc on social media
On January 1, 2024, Mia took to Instagram to post an intimate moment with Inc, captioning it with “4.4.4. Let’s Go!”although she smartly refrained from tagging him or showing his face. The following day, Inc shared the same photo on his Instagram, adding a heartfelt caption celebrating their reunion after many years: “Today is special @mrsmiathornton. It’s been two decades since we celebrated my birthday together. If only the world could see how we brought it in lol, Cheers to our happily ever after #MIAmor.”
Mia expressed her appreciation for Inc’s thoughtful gesture and extended birthday wishes to him. Her fellow cast members, including Ashley and Gizelle, showered the couple with support, applauding their “soft launch”on social media.
