July 8th 2025.
Dr. Heavenly Kimes, a renowned cosmetic dentist and well-known for her role on Bravo's Married to Medicine, has announced her decision to run for a seat in Georgia's House of Representatives. In a heartfelt video shared on Instagram, Kimes expressed her readiness and determination to serve the people of DeKalb County, which includes areas such as Lithonia, Stone Mountain, Decatur, and Stonecrest.
Kimes believes that her unique voice and perspective as a Black woman and doctor will bring much-needed change and representation to the state. She is passionate about making a positive impact in her community and sees this as a calling from God. She firmly believes that when God puts something on your heart, you must rise up and take action. And that is exactly what she intends to do.
Her campaign will officially kick off with a public rally and press conference on July 8th at 5 PM, as stated in a recent press release. Kimes' main goals include making healthcare more affordable and accessible to all and implementing police reform that focuses on accountability, safety, and justice. She is not a politician by trade, but she sees this as an advantage and believes that she is the right person for the job. She is not indebted to any political party or machine and is determined to shake up the status quo.
Kimes is running against incumbent Democratic leader Rep. Doreen Carter, and her campaign slogan, "Real Life * Real Leadership * Real Change," reflects her commitment to bringing about meaningful and tangible change in her community. She plans to focus on preparative education for children, equipping them with essential life skills such as entrepreneurship, technology, and financial literacy. She also aims to strengthen the economy and create opportunities for all.
The dentist and entrepreneur is excited about this historic moment and extends an invitation to all her constituents and supporters to join her in this journey. She believes in the power of community and hopes to work together with her supporters to make a significant impact.
The comments on her announcement video show overwhelming support for Kimes, with one commenter even saying that she looks ready for business in her "politician wig." Podcast host Carlos King and other Bravo stars, including Candice Bassett, congratulated her on her decision. Her supporters see her as an inspiration, and even those outside of Georgia recognize the need for change and support her campaign.
As the world mourns the loss of Thomas G. Sampson Jr., the co-founder of Georgia's first Black-owned law firm, Kimes' announcement brings a glimmer of hope and a promise of progress. With her determination, passion, and unique perspective, she is determined to make Georgia Heavenly again.
