\n\tRiley Burruss<\/a> is shining bright as one of the stars of Next Gen NYC<\/a>, the Bravo<\/a> reality series that features kids from The Real Housewives franchise.<\/p>\n

\n\tBurruss is the daughter of Grammy-winner Kandi Burruss<\/a>, who also starred on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Bravo viewers have seen Riley grow up in front of the cameras, and Next Gen NYC gives her a platform to showcase her personality.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe show first started with me and Brooks [Marks],\u201d Riley told Deadline in an interview about her co-star, the son of of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City\u2019s Meredith Marks. \u201cBrooks had initially came up to me and it just flourished from there. I just thought the time was right [to be on reality TV<\/a>] because I had just graduated school and that\u2019s when everything was confirmed. I was like, \u2018You know what? This is cool. A new adventure. Why not?’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWith her famous mother being a pro at being on reality TV for many years, Riley had someone to look up to for advice about navigating this new world.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cShe wanted me to just be honest all the time, not to lie, not to be extra for cameras, just be me,\u201d Riley said of the advice Kandi gave her. \u201cShe didn\u2019t want to give me too much advice because she wanted me to carve my own lane and figure some things out for myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOne of her co-stars in Next Gen NYC is her childhood friend Arianna Berman, daughter of RHOA\u2019s Kim Zolciak. The two drifted apart after their famous mothers feuded, but the new reality series brought the two young stars together again.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBefore I met up with Arianna, I wasn\u2019t really sure how we would be because, we were 10 years away from each other,\u201d she said of reuniting with Arianna on-camera. \u201cI didn\u2019t know if our personalities would really mesh, but they ended up meshing very well and we\u2019re great friends now.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tShe continued, \u201cWe really don\u2019t talk about what our parents went though because both of our parents agreed that it was years ago and neither of them care. They both want us to be friends, so we kind of just left it in the past and wanted to carve our own new friendship.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRiley\u2019s mom has been watching Next Gen NYC and was nervous about the perception viewers would have of her, and adds, \u201cI think she\u2019s really proud about how I\u2019m coming off and she realizes I\u2019m more mature than she thought.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tReal Housewives of Atlanta\u00a0fans also know Riley\u2019s grandmother, Mama Joyce, who has had many memorable scenes on the Bravo series. However, Riley is skeptical that her grandmother \u201cknows how to\u201d watch the series yet, \u201cbut I\u2019ll definitely show her how to watch on Peacock for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRiley has not been afraid to voice her opinion and stand up for herself on Next Gen NYC, something that can\u2019t be said about her co-star, Brooks Marks. Brooks has opted to take on the approach of her famous mother and disengage from any on-camera conflict and look at the drama from afar.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think that a lot of us have had conversations with him on how to just voice how you feel. I know I\u2019ve had a few,\u201d she says. \u201cHe\u2019s learning. He\u2019s going to figure it out. He just needs some time. It\u2019s OK to be non-confrontational. Not everyone needs to be confrontational. He has a few good people in his corner.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRiley says she\u2019s open to returning for another season of Next Gen NYC, saying, \u201cI would not want to be just a one-season thing, but I don\u2019t know yet. Hopefully, they\u2019re making some things work. All I can do is manifest and hope for the best.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Riley Burruss is shining bright as one of the stars of Next Gen NYC, the Bravo reality series…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":55924,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[9056,171,41062,26696,6337,26698,173,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-55923","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-bravo","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-kandi-burruss","11":"tag-next-gen-nyc","12":"tag-reality-tv","13":"tag-riley-burruss","14":"tag-tv","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-unitedstates","17":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114832732639481191","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
