In a strategic move just days into early voting for Georgia’s 2026 Democratic primary, reality television star, dentist, and congressional candidate Dr. Heavenly Kimes unveiled a powerful new campaign video highlighting a major endorsement from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
The 48-second clip shows Kimes standing side-by-side with Willis in an outdoor setting in front of a modern building with glass doors, trees, and landscaped grounds—symbolizing unity and strength.
Fulton County DA Fani Willis Endorses Heavenly Kimes in Georgia’s 13th District Race
The video opens with bold on-screen text declaring: “Fani Willis, Esq. Fulton County District Atty Endorses Dr Heavenly Kimes For Congress District 13.”
Dr. Kimes, dressed in a purple top with braided hair and large hoop earrings, speaks directly to the camera with conviction while Willis, in a green blazer and bob haircut, stands supportively beside her, nodding and listening attentively. The clip ends with Instagram branding and the same endorsement graphic fading out.
In the accompanying post and video narration, Kimes expresses gratitude for the endorsement: “I am truly honored to have the endorsement of Fani Willis, District Attorney of Fulton County. That means something—because she fights for justice, and she knows a fighter when she sees one.” She then pivots to her platform, vowing to “fight for healthcare… affordability… criminal justice and environmental justice.” Kimes pledges to build on the legacy of longtime Democratic Rep. David Scott by supporting HBCUs and expanding on prior investments.
She also calls for increasing SNAP benefits, making the Affordable Care Act permanent, and expanding Medicare and Medicaid, framing the race around everyday struggles: “Gas is high. Groceries are high. Families are struggling. People are hungry—not just for food, but for leadership.”
Kimes closes with a direct appeal to voters: “I’m Dr. Heavenly Kimes—and I’m not just asking for your vote… I’m ready to be your voice in Washington.” She urges supporters to vote early, linking to her campaign site.
Who Is Dr. Heavenly Kimes?
Dr. Heavenly Kimes is best known as a cast member on Bravo’s Married to Medicine, where her no-nonsense personality, entrepreneurial spirit, and dental practice have made her a fan favorite for over a decade.
A licensed dentist and small business owner, she positions herself as a “mother, wife, doctor, leader” bringing real-world experience to Washington.

Watch Dr. Heavenly Kimes hold her own in debate.
The primary election is set for May 19, 2026, with early voting already underway.
Kimes is one of several Democratic contenders in what has become a competitive race following Rep. David Scott’s decision not to seek re-election. Other candidates include state Sen. Jasmine Clark and former state Rep. Emanuel Jones.
The Significance of the Fani Willis Endorsement
Fani Willis, who gained national prominence as the prosecutor in the Georgia election interference case involving former President Donald Trump, is a polarizing yet influential figure among Democrats in Fulton County—one of the district’s key population centers.
Her public appearance alongside Kimes signals strong backing from progressive and justice-focused voters. In the video, Willis’s silent but visible support reinforces Kimes’s message of bold, fearless leadership.
The endorsement comes at a pivotal moment. With early voting active and the primary less than three weeks away, Kimes is using the high-profile moment to energize her base and differentiate herself in a crowded field. Her campaign website emphasizes building “a healthier, wealthier, stronger Georgia District 13.”
Voters React—and the Race Heats Up
The endorsement has already begun generating buzz across the spectrum. While some reactions are enthusiastic, others reflect the partisan divide surrounding both Kimes and Willis.
Regardless, the video marks a clear escalation in Kimes’s visibility as she positions herself as the fighter ready to carry forward progressive priorities in Congress.
As Georgians head to the polls, this endorsement video underscores a central theme of Kimes’s campaign: leadership that is unafraid to stand up, speak out, and deliver results for everyday people. Whether it propels her to victory remains to be seen—but one thing is certain: Dr. Heavenly is in the fight.
