"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" co-stars Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams recently got into a physical altercation while filming on a boat for season 8 of the show, TMZ reports.

Bailey is reportedly the instigator of the physical brawl, which erupted after Williams allegedly called her a "b*tch."

TMZ sources claim that Bailey initially tried to walk away from Williams after her verbal assault. However, Williams follow Bailey toward the other side of the boat, and at that point, Bailey allegedly kicked Williams in the stomach.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" producers reportedly rushed in and restrained Williams before she could react to Bailey's attack.

Williams was then rushed to the hospital and given pain medication for her minor injuries.

TMZ reports that the physical feud between Williams and Bailey was caught on camera and will most likely be aired during the upcoming eighth season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

People reports that Williams has chosen not to press charges against Bailey. However, TMZ adds that Bailey now risks a possible demotion on the show.

"We're told producers want to see just how bad (or good, for ratings) the fight was ... and there's a possibility Cynthia could be demoted to the dreaded 'friend of the cast' title -- as opposed to full cast member. And yes, that would mean a cut in pay too," says TMZ.

Williams does not risk any further demotion because "antagonizing" a fight is not something that goes against "RHOA" rules, according to TMZ.

So far, neither Bailey or Williams has commented on their recent brawl, however their cast mate Kenya Moore recently tweeted her opinion of what recently happened on the boat, the Grio reports.
