As expected, restaurateur Pinky Cole<\/a> and R&B singer K. Michelle are joining the cast of \u201cThe Real Housewives of Atlanta\u201d for Season 17 this spring. <\/p>\n

Cole, the founder of popular Atlanta-based restaurant chainSlutty Vegan, lost the operation for a brief time when it expanded too quickly, but <\/b>returned last year to run the business. It currently has six locations in five states<\/a>, including Jonesboro and Edgewood in metro Atlanta. <\/p>\n<\/article>\n
