We have been hearing for months that NeNe Leakes was completely finished with The Real Housewives of Atlanta and really happy to move on from the reality series. If you tuned in last season then you watched as the series' former top dog quickly became the under dog, with nearly every cast member having serious issues with Leakes. She never expected everyone to turn on her and so her response was to walk away, at least for a minute. Now I'm hearing that she will indeed return for the eighth season after all.
According to a report by E!, "RHOA is currently filming season eight's trip to Jamaica, and NeNe will make an appearance—unannounced—much to the surprise of her unsuspecting co-stars, according to sources close to production. (That's right: The ladies have no idea she's coming. The drama!) NeNe will be making an undetermined number of appearances in the new season."
Are you at all surprised that Leakes is going to turn up and stir the pot a bit more? I'm guessing that you're probably not. Perhaps the real question is whether or not Leakes ever really intended to leave or if that story made for good publicity. Do you think that she's actually still a regular RHOA cast member and that she'll be on for most of the season despite the rumors about her quitting?
