Fans of BET’s Sistas are buzzing after a major moment in the most recent episode — Karen (played by Ebony Obsidian) told Aaron she’s ready to pack her things and leave Atlanta. That line hit hard, and now viewers are asking: Is Ebony Obsidian actually leaving the show?
While there’s been no official confirmation from BET or Obsidian herself, the emotional weight of Karen’s scene has definitely stirred up speculation. After everything Karen has been through — the heartbreak, the complicated relationships, the pregnancy, the drama with Zac — some fans are wondering if the writers are setting her up for a quiet exit.
Ebony Obsidian has been with Sistas since the very beginning, premiering back in 2019. For nine solid seasons, she’s been a core part of the show’s heartbeat, bringing depth, vulnerability, and fire to Karen’s character. It’s hard to imagine Sistas without her. But as the series evolves and other characters take center stage, it’s possible that Karen’s story arc could be reaching a turning point.
Of course, it could just be a classic Sistas cliffhanger — and Karen might change her mind next episode. We’ve seen that before. Still, the fact that she’s talking about leaving the city entirely does make us wonder if this is more than just drama — it could be the beginning of a major cast shakeup.
For now, all we can do is watch and wait. But one thing’s for sure: if Ebony Obsidian is planning her exit, it would mark the end of an era for the show. And we’re not ready.
