was forced to quit Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test on Wednesday’s episode due to an aggravated knee injury.
The 52-year-old reality star during the Fear episode of the Fox reality show was given a leadership role on day six of the 10-day journey with only eight of the original 16 recruits still remaining.
‘I think people underestimate me.
Just because you’re a certain age or you’re doesn’t mean that your life is ending,’ Kenya said in a confessional after being named duty recruit.
‘You can still empower yourself by believing in yourself and pushing yourself.’
The group’s first task was to traverse The Trainasium course designed by the parachute regiment to test control and balance.
Anthony Scaramucci, 58, was the first to try the exercise in which they had to walk 40-feet above the air on thin poles from one structure to another.

The former White House senior staffer failed the task and was followed by The Real Housewives Of Atlanta star Kenya.
‘I’m mentally strong, but I have an extreme fear of heights,’ Kenya said during a confessional.
She overcame her fears and completed the task as instructors praised her effort.
‘I think what makes me stand out is that fierce determination that I have inside of me,’ said Kenya, who won the Miss USA pageant in 1993.
‘Scared of heights?,’ asked Directing Staff instructor Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham as Kenya made it to the other side.
‘Terrified,’ Kenya replied.
‘A few little wobbles, but overall a great effort,’ Billy told her.
The Bachelor franchise star Hannah Brown, 28, made it across, but failed after her losing her balance and touching a guide wire.

‘But I don’t like to lose,’ said Hannah, who was crowned Miss Alabama USA 2018.
Hannah was later called in for tactical questioning and revealed that the shouting by instructors makes her freeze up.
‘I understand why y’all do it, but my dad also could kind of be that way, ’cause he wanted to protect us, and so I think that’s still something that I struggle with,’ Hannah said.

She also admitted that she didn’t know herself very well while she was thrust in the public spotlight on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.

All of them impressively completed the task, but several forgot personal items after being repeatedly reminded to be accountable for their equipment.

Anthony quit the show after realizing that his body was failing him.
The remaining recruits were then forced to complete a timed obstacle course as punishment, but Kenya’s knee injury prevented her from participating.
‘To come to this age and expect your body to do the same thing that it used to do and it fails you….It’s like really scary,’ Kenya said in a confessional.

She was pulled from the obstacle course after Dwight stopped to help her.
‘I can’t do it. My knee is not good. I just…I can’t do it,’ Kenya said sobbing.
She wiped tears away before taking off her armband and quitting.
