It’s been nine months since NeNe Leakes was last in the clubhouse with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star called Porsha Williams out for lying, weighed in on Kenya Moore‘s former flame, Matt Jordan, and so much more!
Does NeNe think Sheree and Bob Whitfield should get back together? “No. I don’t think Sheree likes Bob. At all.”
Andy plays a clip from last week’s WWHL where Porsha said that her and NeNe never speak and that’s she’s tried to call NeNe but hasn’t gotten a response. NeNe says, “well, we all know that’s a lie, including you.(to Andy) You know the last time, Porsha hasn’t spoken to me since the reunion. Remember when I was trying to give her advice about fighting and all that? She took offense to that. She left the show and went on her radio show and bashed me along with the rest of her co-workers and I was simply just trying to give her good advice as I have always done since I’ve known her. I’ve given her nothing but good advice. That is the reason why we haven’t spoken. When I got to Jamaica she really wasn’t talking to me in Jamaica either – you know, because I was back on the show and of course these girls want to be the queen and you know when the queen is there you can’t shine.”
Which of her former RHOA co-stars does she keep in touch with? “I talk to Kenya, I talk to Cynthia, I talk to Kandi, I talk to Sheree. Kandi actually just texted me about a week ago inviting me to her baby’s birthday party. He turned one.”
She says Cynthia is still the only co-star who has seen her one woman show. “That is still the case, however, they all have reached out to me saying they want to come: Kandi, Kenya, Sheree.”
Andy asks if she’s had any new work done. She says no but that some of the others better start admitting their work. Andy asks “like who?” NeNe says, “all of ’em.”
NeNe keeps her crown as the queen of shade. Andy asks if she’s watched Porsha on Celebrity Apprentice this season. “No, I have not watched. In fact, I haven’t heard anything about it.”
NeNe did like the scenes with Phaedra‘s camp. “That was very sweet. It was good to see them do something together.”
Does Kenya provoke people? “Kenya can definitely stick it to you over and over and over again.”
Andy asks NeNe to weigh in on the latest drama on RHOA. Her thoughts on Sheree releasing a novel and saying there’s a character in her book that’s an ex-stripper named Paris. Does NeNe think that’s based on her? “I don’t know but people been telling me that it’s supposed to be. I’m not surprised because everybody wants me in their book. They want to sell, honey.”
Her thoughts on Peter and Cynthia divorcing? Does she talk to Peter? “Yeah, I talk to Peter and I talk to Cynthia. I think happiness is #1. If this is going to make her happy, then get a divorce.”
NeNe‘s thoughts on the claim that Kandi and Shamea used to have sexual relations? “Well I don’t know about Shamea but I think Kandi has admitted in the past and said she’s dipped in the lady pond.”
Thoughts on Mama Joyce visiting a lawyer to inquire about Phaedra‘s divorce issues? “Isn’t that my divorce attorney? He’s been with everybody! They obviously think it’s going to bring them up a notch. Go Randy.”
Thoughts on Kandi‘s ex trying to get back in Riley‘s life? “I think it’s never too late for a parent to step up. We want them to be there in the beginning but if he wants to step up, I say let him step up.”
A viewer asks a Marlo question and NeNe snipes “I can’t believe we’re talking about her. When you all gonna give her a peach?” Andy asks if they should and NeNe says if they were gonna give her one it would’ve been a long time ago. Andy comments that many years ago NeNe wanted Marlo to have one. “Many years ago. When you’re a good friend to these folks, you want to help them out. But they’re also very thirsty.”
A caller asks NeNe what she thinks about Kim Zolciak denying that she’s had any face work done. Andy says they’ve had a lot of debates with her on the air about her nose, does NeNe think Kim had her nose done? “Yes.”
What does NeNe think about Matt and Kenya‘s relationship? “I honestly didn’t have a real thought on them. Honestly, I never thought he was a match for Kenya at all. It’s just a bunch of drama. It’s so unfortunate.” She adds, “I’ve met him and I’ve been around him a few times and Kenya seemed like she really liked him but I never thought he was for her. He’s definitely not the one. Because if anybody were to bust out my windows? Honey, you’re out.”
What does she think of Kandi and Phaedra‘s friendship split? “I’m okay with a friendship split. It’s just the way that it’s splitting I think is the problem. I think Kandi had been holding back for so long and keeping secrets and for me, I know them in a way different from the viewers, for me – I got your back. I’m loyal to you until you’re not loyal to me and you’re not just gonna keep shooting at me and think I’m never gonna shoot at you. So I’m okay if Kandi wants to blow her head off (venting) every now and then. I’m fine with that.”
What is NeNe‘s relationship status with Phaedra? “Well, Phaedra like Porsha. I have not talked to Phaedra. When I arrived in Jamaica, which is a lot that you guys did not see, Phaedra and Porsha were the two girls that I was not really cool with, so I did not tell them that I was coming. So when I showed up they were like… I was surprised by their reaction to me. They didn’t even talk to me hardly in Jamaica. I caught them whispering. But I get it, these girls want to shine, they want to be a star.”
Andy says he was surprised because it seemed like Phaedra and NeNe were good friends. “I’m cool with Phaedra. I feel like I must be the problem for them.” She reiterates that the last time she talked to Phaedra was at the reunion. “She doesn’t talk to me. I don’t have a problem with her.”
NeNe says she and Kandi made a bet/promise to get to know each other better and they have both kept to that. She says Kandi will text her but not Phaedra or Porsha. “Porsha even said she didn’t know she lived in my neighborhood, but she was at my ladies luncheon when I first moved into my house.” Andy brings up again that Porsha swears she called NeNe a couple of times and NeNe says again, “that’s a lie. Let me tell you something. I am the girl that calls you right back. So stop believing the lies, honey. I’m just telling you like it is. This girl didn’t call me. How is she gonna call me when she’s bashing me to her radio crew all the time?”
After the show, Kandi Burruss shared on Instagram, “I had to post this because @neneleakes just explained perfectly what I’ve felt. For those who wonder why I’ve reacted the way I have reacted this season. Im extremely loyal but for the last couple years I’ve kept my mouth closed while I was getting dragged on & off camera. So this year I was just done. At the end of the day we should respect girl codes but that means when the friendship is done you don’t say anything about each other. Not just I don’t say anything about you while you blast the hell out of me all the time. Please remember you guys only get bits & pieces of what you get to see on the show, Nene has been privy to info that y’all don’t know so her perspective is a lot more clear on this situation. Isn’t it funny to hear Nene & I on the same page. #JesusFixedIt.”
