Amanda Seales Will Join “The Real” As The Fifth Co-Host

Amanda Seales is joining “The Real” permanently as the fifth co-host.

According to The Jasmine Brand, the actress/comedian has reportedly been tapped to join hosts Loni Love, Tamera Mowry-Housley, Jeannie Mai and Adrienne Houghton as the permanent fifth host of the Emmy-winning show, beginning in 2020.

“She guest co-hosted on the show for a while and they loved her,” claims a source at TheJasmineBrand. “She really connected with the audience!”

Seales will finally fill the fifth co-host spot that was left vacant after singer Tamar Braxton left the show in 2017.

Since that time producers at “The Real” have used the open seat for various celebrity guest hosts.

Show producers are reportedly excited to bring Seales, who is extremely outspoken, on to diversify the points of view expressed on the show, with the source adding, “Everyone is really excited about her coming on!”
