Lateasha ‘Sweet Tea’ Lunceford Leaving Bravo’s ‘Married To Medicine’

Reality Star Exit: What Lateasha ‘Sweet Tea’ Lunceford’s Departure Means for Married to Medicine

Bravo’s Married to Medicine just lost one of its most talked-about stars: Lateasha "Sweet Tea" Lunceford. Her sudden departure announcement was not on our bingo cards for today and has left us with questions about what really happened. 

Lateasha Lunceford, better known to viewers as "Sweet Tea," made her debut in Season 10 of Married to Medicine as the new wife of Dr. Gregory Lunceford, an Atlanta-based psychiatrist and former husband of longtime cast member Quad Webb.

Their relationship, from a social media meet-cute to a whirlwind wedding quickly became one of the show’s most captivating storylines. Why? Mainly because fans wanted to see her interact with Quad and the messiness that would follow. 

Known for her bold personality, sharp tongue, interesting fashion choices and feuds with a few of the other ladies other than Quad (aka Heavenly), Sweet Tea definitely had the fans talking. Whether you loved her or hated her, her openness about her IVF journey and health battles, including her experience with endometriosis gave a bit of realism to the reality show.

Sweet Tea's decision to leave Married to Medicine wasn’t entirely unexpected if we are being honest but she did have a lot to say about her departure on her Instagram account stating, “And I was just going to say… I really wanted to leave it to my fans to figure out what was going on because know that I’m not a quitter.” 

This statement hints that her departure was not her decision. She also stated that there are better things in store for her and we hope that is true. 

Now that Sweet Tea is gone, what does that mean for seasons going forward? Will the ladies leave in harmony? Technically all the fighting should stop right? There shouldn’t have to be sides chosen in the friendship battle.  Who are we kidding, the drama will probably be more intense now more than ever.
