In a development that many fans of The Real Housewives of Potomac may have anticipated, Mia Thornton’s rekindled romance with Atlanta radio personality Inc, aka Incognito, has officially ended. The reality star announced the breakup on New Year’s Eve, just after sharing a smiling photo with her estranged husband, Gordon Thornton.
She told The Shade Room, “Inc is my best friend and perfect in so many ways, but I have decided to focus on my children and maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship with their father.”
The statement followed her NYE photo with Gordon, sparking speculation about the current status of their relationship. As always, social media was quick to react. Users shared mixed opinions, with some supporting Mia’s decision to focus on her family and others critiquing her for her past actions.
This season, Mia faced criticism from fans and co-stars alike for her tumultuous personal life, which became a central storyline. Season 8 concluded with a tense conversation between Mia and Gordon, where he accused her of moving on with another man while they were still married. Gordon also alleged that Mia left when his finances dried up and their joint business ventures failed.
Season 9 continued to document Mia navigating her relationships with both Gordon and Inc. She claimed to be supporting Gordon as he battled bipolar disorder while simultaneously integrating her family life with Inc. Questions surrounding the paternity of her middle child added further complexity, with Inc. suspecting he might be the father. Mia admitted there was overlap in her relationships with both men during that time.
Social media users and her co-stars have not held back their criticism, urging Mia to focus on being single and resolving her divorce before pursuing new relationships. Many viewers expressed concern over the impact of the drama on her children, who were often caught in the middle.
Whether Mia’s latest chapter brings stability or more headlines remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Real Housewives of Potomac fans will be watching closely.

So now that Inc has dumped Mia does that mean he’s no longer the baby daddy? #RHOP pic.twitter.com/NWwgWMCbe7

Apparently Mia and Inc have parted ways!!! The "ink" didn't dry and wasn't permanent as her tagline 😭 #RHOP

The Inc storyline was a flop, as was Mia painting Gordon as so unstable, when he was really just pissed that she was flaunting that leprechaun in front of him and his kids but he had to play along because #RHOP pays both of their bills.
A mess! But Mia can go next season, chile https://t.co/sRxu8aViA1

Wait, Mia left Inc to focus on co-parenting with Gordon? This storyline has more twists than a Bravo finale. #RHOP
