Nene Leakes shares news about husband
Over the weekend, a TikTok video went viral of Nene speaking to patrons at The Linnethia Lounge, the place the former RHOA star owns in Atlanta. Nene was speaking to people that called her “rude” and opened up about why she might not be in the best of moods.
“My husband is transitioning to the other side,” she told the crowd. “You don’t know what we’re dealing with right now. We walked in this lounge because we had to walk in this lounge because this is our business. So, when people approach and say, ‘you’re rude because you don’t want to say happy birthday,’ my husband is at home dying. I don’t want to say ‘happy birthday,’ OK?”
Leakes said that she only made an appearance at the lounge because she has a business to run and would appreciate it if they gave her and her son love during this time.

Cancer returned for Gregg Leakes
It was earlier this year that Nene revealed that her husband had been hospitalized after cancer returned. After the news was reported, Nene took to Instagram to say that she was “caught off guard” in the interview. She said that she didn’t mean to open up about it as Gregg is a private person and wanted to keep out of the public.
“He’s a private person so I hadn’t said anything publicly [his wishes, only our circle really know details] and really, sometimes it’s best that way because people just read into it whatever they want too and family….whew Chileeeeee I just can’t,” she wrote on the Instagram post.
Nene thanked everyone who had sent their prayers and thoughtful messages and ended the post by saying Gregg told her to “keep smiling.”
