Gentleman beware, NeNe is on the prowl. NeNe Leakes Says She Is Single And Dating After Divorcing Gregg NeNe Leakes says she’s “legally single” and is in fact dating these days. The Real Housewives of Atlanta star appeared on Conan and revealed what she’s looking for in a man. Despite her 5’10.5″ frame, Leakes says she has dated shorter guys in past and it’s not an issue for her. “Shorter guys tend to have that boss mentality,” she said. “So they like to talk to taller women, just makes them feel tall.” Even though her future beau may be shorter, his wallet must be just as heavy. “They’re going to need their own money, now,” said Leakes. “They can’t have mine. They do need to bring something to the table. They don’t need to be super rich, but they need to be financially stable. I can’t take care of you.” It appears Leakes is doing just fine in the financial department these days. Her brand new series The New Normal debuted on NBC this week and she’s got a line of shoes coming out in the future. Do you think NeNe will skip out on the brothas and run to whiter pastures?
