“My family and I have made the decision to move to Atlanta, and with that I will not return to Real Housewives of Potomac next season.
The 40-year-old has been an important part of this reality show from seasons six to nine.
“The last four seasons have been an unforgettable journey a full of growth, lessons and so many incredible memories,” she continued.
“I want to thank really original, Bravo, Nbcuniversal and Andy Cohen for believing me and given me room to share my story. To my caste buddies: Thanks for laughter, lessons and the unforgettable moments.
“And for the amazing fans your love and support has meant everything to me. I will always carry it with me.”
As for what’s next?
Thornton did Teasing new projects on the horizon after moving home.
“This next chapter is already full of exciting opportunities, and I can’t wait to take you all the time on the trip,” she concluded.
“Big things come … ‘I don’t just get headlines – I come with history. Atlanta, stiff yourself. The empire is expanded. #Legacyinthemaking.”

“Bravo to you,” he commented on Mia’s post.
