TV Star Dr Heavenly Kimes Steps Into Politics
Dr Heavenly Kimes, known from Married to Medicine, is now stepping away from the cameras to run for public office. On July 8, she officially announced her campaign for Georgia State Representative, District 93. The news was shared first with PEOPLE magazine on July 7.
She’s not just joining politics — she’s bringing her strong voice, her bold personality, and her years of experience as a doctor and entrepreneur into the race. “I’m not a career politician. I’m a mom, a doctor, a business owner—and I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in,” Dr Heavenly said.
What Dr Heavenly Wants to Change in Georgia
Dr Heavenly says she’s focused on key issues that matter to people in her community. Her campaign will spotlight healthcare, better schools, more support for small businesses, and real paths to economic success.
She also wants leaders who actually listen. “Our people deserve real representation,” she said. “Someone who understands both the struggles and the solutions.”
Running With a Friend by Her Side
Helping Dr Heavenly run her campaign is fellow Married to Medicine star, Quad Webb. She’s not just showing support — she’s acting as Dr Heavenly’s campaign manager. Together, they make a powerful team.
“Heavenly is a woman of action,” Quad said. “If anyone can shake things up and make real change, it’s her.” Fans online are already calling them a dynamic duo to watch.
From TV Drama to Political Trail
Dr Heavenly has always been outspoken on reality TV. She first joined Married to Medicine as a guest and then became a full cast member. Now, she’s ready to speak up for real-life issues in the state Capitol.
Though the show is currently filming its 12th season, it’s not clear how much of her political run will be included. But cameras are rolling, so fans may get a peek into the campaign behind the scenes.
Why This Matters for Black Women in Leadership
Running for office as a Black woman is no small task. Dr Heavenly is facing the usual challenges — from media pressure to public judgment — but she’s not backing down.
She’s showing that Black women can lead, speak up, and push for real change. And she’s using her platform to open doors for others. This isn’t just about one seat in Georgia. It’s about pushing the system to be more equal and more fair.
We’ll be watching closely as she continues this bold new chapter. One thing’s for sure — District 93 just got a whole lot more interesting.
