Cynthia Bailey & NeNe Leakes Reunite for Candid Interview, Dish on New RHOA Season

In an emotional reunion, ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ staples NeNe Leakes and Cynthia Bailey sat down for a raw and revealing conversation that fans have been waiting for.

From the highs of their friendship to the tension and eventual fallout, nothing was off the table on the ‘NeNe Leakes Show.’

Full story below…

NeNe didn’t hold back when she declared that Cynthia was “the shadiest Housewife,” prompting laughs. But beyond the shade, there was deep reflection and a whole lot of truth-telling.

Leakes shared:

“I really think that Cynthia is the shadiest Housewife of them all her shade is kind slick.”

Cynthia opened up about how NeNe actually played a major role in helping her get cast on RHOA.

In the early seasons, the two were inseparable, to the point that fans jokingly called Cynthia Nene’s “stalker” because nearly every scene she was in featured the two together. They even had a now-infamous “friendship contract” something that became a memorable part of Housewives’ history.

But as time went on, Cynthia alluded to external forces subtly pulling them apart. She shared how the show’s direction shifted, eventually allowing her to step into her own storyline and start her solo RHOA journey. That independence came with a cost distance from her once-close friend.

They also addressed some of the rough patches in their relationship, including a moment when NeNe believed Cynthia had blocked her.

Cynthia cleared the air, explaining she hadn’t blocked NeNe, she just had her on mute.

NeNe admitted to blocking Cynthia out of frustration, but both women acknowledged how miscommunication and emotions played a big role in their falling out.

The pair also waxed candid about the rebooted version of RHOA, which Cynthia currently stars on in a “Friend Of” capacity. She drew comparisons to the early days of her tenure and the reality that the newbies now have the “manual” and turn up to scenes with stylists and the like.

Despite the bumps in the road that have tested their friendship, the conversation was full of laughter, honesty, and genuine respect. We enjoyed it. Did you?
