NeNe LEAKED: Bravo Star Secretly Dating Behind Gregg’s Back! [Exclusive]

Back in 2013, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s  NeNe Leakes remarried Gregg Leakes after filing for divorce two years earlier. Now, it looks as if the Bravo mainstay might soon find herself once again dividing assets and wishing she’d signed a prenup! An insider tells  The Hollywood Gossip exclusively that while she’s clearly trying to keep it on the DL, this OG Peach is stepping out. According to our source, NeNe has been cheating on her husband with a man she met during her business trips to Maryland.  “Nene Leakes has not only been spending a lot of time in Maryland lately since the opening of her new SWAGG Boutique at the MGM Casino in Oxon Hill,” our insider reports. “But she also been spending most of her time there because she has a boyfriend there in Maryland who she is openly dating.” Wow. How does our insider claim to know this? “I’m an employee at the Starbucks across from her Swagg boutique,” the source says. “Me other MGM employees are surprised how open she has been openly parading her new bae around the casino.” “[NeNe] can care less who see and knows about it since she is a married woman,” the insider adds. Yes, not only is NeNe spending time in the company of a side-piece, it seems she doesn’t care who knows about it! The allegation is made all the more shocking by the fact that Gregg Leakes has been battling cancer  for the past year. Thankfully for all, Gregg is currently in remission. Based on how comfortable NeNe seems to be with her boy toy, though, we’re guessing this affair is not a new development. Following a three-season hiatus, NeNe is back on the show that made her famous – but not without some serious tumult. While she stood by Gregg throughout his cancer battle, the process clearly took a toll on their already fractured marriage. NeNe was open about the fact that despite all he was going through, Gregg should have treated his wife so much better. Moreover, reports from the set claim that Leakes is feuding with her co-stars so badly that the Real Housewives of Atlanta crew is struggling to compile any usable footage. Insiders say her  beef with Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore has gotten so bad that she refuses to film with either woman. Leakes, of course, is arguably the greatest success story of the Housewives franchise – which is saying a lot. Having parlayed her reality TV popularity into success in acting, fashion, and various other side projects, she’s a bona fide star. And rich. See below. View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Atlanta: How Much Are the Stars Paid? But have all those triumphs resulted in such a feeling of imperviousness that Leakes believes she can shamelessly cheat on her husband? Without consequence? Perhaps she and Gregg have privately entered some sort of open arrangement? Or have separated and not told the public? We can’t say for sure, yet, but you can bet this latest bombshell will be used as ammo against NeNe in her many feuds.

Swagg: NeNe Leakes Not Currently Filming RHOA, Working On ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Style Show (Exclusive)

Source: Aaron Poole/E! Entertainment/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images / Getty NeNe Leakes Working On RHOA Spinoff Yes, the rumors are true. NeNe Leakes is not currently filming RHOA but there’s a good reason why. In case you’re behind on what’s going on behind the scenes on season 12, LoveBScott reported that NeNe hasn’t filmed with any of the ladies yet, citing her behavior during that closet fiasco that ended with a ripped shirt for a cameraman and allegedly broken tooth. “For that reason, in addition to NeNe’s ‘bad attitude’ in dealing with producers and execs behind the scenes, sources tell lovebscott.com that NeNe has been forced to “sit out” for at least the first part of the season — maybe longer — as the ladies begin filming.” And while a rep for NeNe denied that she’s being punished for her behavior and just in “contract negotiations” ,  we can report that NeNe is indeed not currently filming and working on her contract—–but for something else. A source tells BOSSIP that the RHOA OG is working on a contract for a spinoff show centered around her Swagg Boutique. NeNe opened her Swagg Boutique in the MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland back in May… View this post on Instagram As the FIRST black woman I’m happy to say, WE ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN GIRL inside @mgmnationalharbor Come thru TOMORROW for our first Sip, Shop Party with me and a few other familiar faces! 2pm to 7pm Swagg Boutique located across from Starbucks on the food court #Swaggdmv Thank you for all the love A post shared by Nene Leakes (@neneleakes) on May 17, 2019 at 9:31pm PDT and we hear that cameras are rolling for pre-production centering around the boutique’s staff. The source tells us that the show will be like Lisa Vanderpump’s famed “Vanderpump Rules” and follow NeNe’s sales associates as they “work, party and deal with drama.” View this post on Instagram All Smiles A post shared by Nene Leakes (@neneleakes) on Jun 8, 2019 at 6:11pm PDT This is especially interesting considering that NeNe’s accused Lisa Vanderpump of stealing her idea for her PUMP restaurant which later blossomed into a TV show. NeNe previously claimed that her fellow Bravo star advised her against opening a bar in West Hollywood calling it a “dump” before going back and buying it herself. NeNe has another Swagg location in Atlanta and a smaller Swaggalicious boutique in Miami so there’s room for the show to become a franchise if the show is a success. It should be noted however that NeNe WILL be back on RHOA season 12 which will include Kenya Moore whose presence spurned that BIG Cynthia Bailey/NeNe Leakes blowup.  Would YOU watch a “Vanderpump Rules” style NeNe spinoff???

NeNe Leakes REFUSES to Film With Porsha Williams or Kenya Moore

We already reported that the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is feuding so hard that Bravo was scrambling to get it all. Unfortunately, that feud has worsened in a less entertaining way — and on set drama has never been worse. NeNe is refusing to film with Porsha or Kenya, and the other Housewives are fuming over it. Filming on Season 12 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is underway, but drama is already going down on set. Unfortunately, it’s the bad kind of drama — the kind that you can’t capture on camera. RadarOnline reports that NeNe Leakes is at the center of what’s proving to be a nightmare for Bravo. “NeNe is refusing to film with Porsha and Kenya,” an insider divulges. The source explains her motive: “She is not going to let them stir the pot.” NeNe is central to the show, and she knows it, and she knows that her castmates — even her enemies — know it. “NeNe knows that they all just want to use her for fights,” the insider explains. “And,” the source continues. “She wants no part of it.” In other words, NeNe isn’t just avoiding Porsha and Kenya. She is actively trying to punish them, by sabotaging their careers and causing them deep personal and professional frustration. Now, why is she so mad again? “Porsha made claims that NeNe grabbed her when she was pregnant,” the insider reminds the world. The source notes that this alleged grabbing went down “during the infamous closet fight.” “But the unedited footage shown during the reunion vindicated NeNe,” the insider says, adding: “She believes.” Suffice it to say that NeNe holds a hefty grudge. “NeNe wants nothing to do with Porsha,” the source characterizes. Their friendship has thoroughly soured and they have not mended fences behind the scenes. The same goes for Kenya, of course. According to the insider: “NeNe knows that Kenya is only coming back for drama.” That’s why any Housewife comes back. The network gets drama, the Housewife gets fame and money. That’s the deal. “And,” the source says. “She is not going to entertain it.” This entire ordeal isn’t making NeNe any new friends. Quite the opposite, in fact. “The issue is,” the insider explains. “All of the other ladies feel like they had to film scenes that made them uncomfortable.” “And,” the source adds. “They’re mad that NeNe doesn’t have to film them.” This is where NeNe’s massive salary of $2.85 million for the season, more than that of any other Housewife in the franchise’s history, comes into play. “They think it is unfair that the highest paid person on the show wants do the least amount of work,” the insider explains. That’s a fair gripe, though they’ll find that reality television isn’t the only business sector where income is unfair. NeNe Leakes is gambling that her entertainment value is more important to Bravo than that of the women she now despises. In other words, she’s icing them out for more than just a desire to avoid them. She wants them off of the show, and she doesn’t want to clash with them in person — even if it will help their careers. It sounds like NeNe could be shooting herself in the foot. There’s no sense in cutting off your nose to spite your face, right?

NeNe Leakes’ Husband Gregg Pens Public Apology for Hurtful Behavior

Some time after Thanksgiving of last year,  NeNe Leakes blasted her cancer-stricken husband . She even described his behavior towards her as “evil,” openly complaining about him. Now, Gregg Leakes is acknowledging his bad treatment of her during his cancer battle, and singing NeNe’s praises. “We always hurt the ones we Love,” Gregg Leakes begins his heartfelt Instagram post. “Because,” he writes. “They allow us to hurt them rather than snap back.” “I’m tired of hurting my wife,” he says, referring to his hurtful words that he has said during his cancer battle. He praises NeNe, “who is only trying to take good care of me.” “And,” he admits, NeNe “wants only the best for me too.” “She deserves much more,” Gregg says of his wife. He is grateful “for her hard efforts and tireless hours spent on me.” And he asks for help and guidance in treating her with the respect that she deserves. “I Pray to God to get it together,” Gregg admits. Hey, there’s nothing wrong with admitting that you need help, even if it’s with getting yourself under control. Gregg’s post continues, and here, he sings the praises of NeNe. “She’s done NO wrong…” he asserts. Some  The Real Housewives of Atlanta  fans might take issue with that, but he’s speaking of her as his wife and sometimes caregiver. “This is ALL on me……” Gregg writes of his own behavior. He concludes his post by issuing a stern warning to his fans and followers: “Cancer WILL change your Life…” That is absolutely true. On Tuesday, NeNe acknowledged Gregg’s health battle on Instagram while illustrating that he is up and about. “@greggleakes Happy your out in the casino doing what you love to do,” she wrote. “Because for some strange reason,” NeNe continued. “People seem to think your like stuck in a bed or hooked up to some sort of machine.” NeNe added: “when that couldn’t be further from the truth!” “Enjoy your day,” she concluded. “And bring home some of that money hunni” In late November, NeNe very unsubtly subtweeted her husband. “I would just think if i have or had cancer, i would see life so differently!” she expressed. NeNe predicted that, in Gregg’s shoes, she would “not being mean, grouchy, and evil for no real reason!” “But that’s me,” she concluded. “Pray for me.” If you have had a close relative with cancer, you know that sometimes, they can lash out with hurtful words at their caregivers. Some interpreted NeNe’s message about Gregg gambling as shady. We’re not so sure. Some people get their impressions of cancer battles either from seeing distant relatives at the very end of their lives, or from television. In real life, people with cancer usually continue to live their lives, but less comfortably after their chemo treatments. People with cancer shop, meet up with friends, play video games, and gamble as before. She wasn’t trying to shame him for enjoying himself, just to illustrate that her impatience with his grouchiness is understandable. She’s not tweeting her frustrations about a man who’s confined to a hospital bed. She’s talking about the realities of having a husband with cancer.

NeNe Leakes Calls Total BS on Phaedra Parks

It finally happened on The Real Housewives of Atlanta this week : Following weeks of questions, rumors and speculation, the cast gathered for part three of their annual reunion special and Porsha Williams at last revealed who told her Kandi Burruss and her husband said they tried to drug and take advantage of her. (Yes, this was an actual storyline on the show this season.) To stunned gasps and screams, Porsha pointed the finger at Phaedra Parks. She said her fellow reality star was the one who leveled such allegations against Kandi and Todd. Appearing afterward on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, NeNe Leakes immediately responded to this revelation. Although she said the idea of Parks as a wannabe snitch who stirs up trouble was anything but a revelation in her experience. “Phaedra been doing this bullshit for a very long time,” Leakes said, on full tilt. “Phaedra did the exact same thing to me, as we already discussed before, years ago on the show when she first came on. She tried to take me down and it didn't work. “Phaedra's been doing stuff like this, she just got caught.” Later on, the verbal war against Parks was ratcheted yp when a guest asked Leakes to name the “shadiest” Real Housewife from Atlanta. She didn't need much time to arrive at an answer. “Clearly it must be Phaedra,” Leakes said, adding: “I think Phaedra a person… that has a way of wanting to be seen one way, but she does all these things behind camera. She's always been that way, this is not anything new. “It may be new to you guys, but for us who work with her, we've always known her to be that person.” In other words: Parks is a fake. She's a phony. She just basically sucks as a person, according to NeNe. Watch her answer a question about Phadrea from Cohren below:
