When Bravo’s hit reality TV show Married to Medicine first aired in 2013, viewers lauded
it for offering a breath of fresh air, and not being a cookie-cutter version of pretty
much every other reality show that graced our TV screens then. The series that features
a handful of Atlanta-based women who are either medical professionals themselves or are married
to a person in the medical field have got viewers hooked with its Southern charm and
irresistible sass.
One of its most popular cast members, Mariah Huq has been a part of the show since its
inception, even donning the hat of a creator and executive producer. She earned even more
support from her fans after suffering a devastating miscarriage that she and her husband Aydin
tragically endured shortly after announcing they were expecting twins. However, much to
the fans’ disappointment, the Bravo star who is known for her caramel waves, stunning
smile, and big personality was nowhere to be seen in the show’s 8th installment. So,
what happened to the self-proclaimed Queen B? Let’s find out.
Although Mariah was not a medical professional, she was a major part of Married to Medicine
who enjoyed immense status in the social scene and was renowned for her charitable work.
But her strong personality might have rubbed a few people the wrong way. Fans might recall
that Mariah’s friendship with Quad Webb was tested and eventually fell apart. Things
got more convoluted when the former friends were accusing each other of lies and when
the mudslinging extended on to their families, there was no hope of a reconciliation.
Mariah landed herself into more trouble with Dr. Heavenly Kimes when she made some nasty
remarks about her colleague’s marriage to Dr. Damon Kimes. But her feud with a few cast
members might not exactly be the main reason behind her abrupt exit. The popular socialite
made headlines after it was revealed that she sued Bravo, along with the show producers,
FremantleMedia North America, and Purveyors of Pop.
It's not exactly a secret that the network has been receiving a lot of flak lately after
being accused of some serious allegations by numerous staff and cast members, with The
Real Housewives of Atlanta star Nene (pron. ni-ni) Leakes calling out the network for
facing discrimination in the past. She went a step further and even requested her fans
to boycott Bravo altogether.
Viewers are convinced that Mariah’s lawsuit where she accused the network and producers
of ‘breach of contract, breach of joint venture agreement, failure to prevent harassment
and retaliation,’ cost her a spot on the show, which she has also hinted in the past.
Back in April 2020, when asked why she had not received a contract from the show's network
via a post on her Instagram account, the TV personality replied, "Morting-ting-ting Where
is my contract? Last time I checked I was #MarriedTo Med Now I have to worry about Covid
& Contracts.." Ouch!
The whole matter felt very personal to her fans because it seemed that the producers
did not want her to be a part of something she created. Her loyal fans rallied behind
the star saying she has valid reasons to sue and what she brings to the show is unmatched.
Even though fans haven’t been able to watch the philanthropist on the Bravo show, they
are certainly not complaining as the mom-of-two makes sure she provides plenty of content
through her social media. The business-savvy personality who has an impressive 567K followers
on Instagram has clearly left all the toxic drama, legal fiascos associated with her reality
TV days behind and is living life to the fullest. She also has an entire business to look after
as she is the founder of Mariah Media LLC and co-owns a multicultural decor line called
Jewel and Jem with her sister Lake. The doting wife and mother loves spending
quality time with her family who makes frequent appearances on the site, whether it's her
son Ethan, who is a high schooler training to be a pilot or her beautiful daughter Lauren-Taylor
who looks like her mini version. The multi-talented star has been letting her
hair down under the Moroccan sun lately. She recently shared a post of gratitude on the
occasion of her birthday writing, “Happy Birthday to meeeee...I'm Praising God for
allowing me to see another blessed year & enlarging my territory. I'm grateful for all the things
he's already done & ecstatic about the amazing things he is about to do! I thank him for
my Health, my wealth and my tribe.” Not long ago, she also paid a tribute to her beloved
husband on his birthday praising him for his unwavering commitment towards his patients.
Mariah Huq has been doing well both personally and professionally. Even though she isn’t
back in the reality TV world yet she is certainly not out of action!
