NeNe Leakes Is Stronger Than Ever and Owning Her Dopeness

Yes, Girl! - November 15, 2018

Just days after the Season 11 premiere of the The Real Housewives Of Atlanta, we sat down with no-nonsense star NeNe Leakes (@NeNe Leakes) for one of her most vulnerable interviews yet. The Broadway and television actress, entrepreneur and reality star opened up about her husband Gregg’s shocking cancer diagnosis, why it changed them forever and how she’s held his hand throughout the fight of his life. Plus, Leakes reflects on her own receipts (as Andy Cohen says, "RHOA is the house that NeNe built"), living healthier and staying fabulous. In Tea For The Week Yolanda and Charli are all about Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade’s baby news, silencing mommy-shamers and counting down the days until Thanksgiving. Yes, Girl! Hosts: Cori Murray @corimurray; Charli Penn @ManWifeDog; and Yolanda Sangweni @yolizama Producer: Tiffany Ashitey (@misstiffsays) Bookings: Rorna Richards Audio Engineer: Agerenesh Ashagre (@agerenesh) Music: Gold Standard Creative (@gscdotnyc)
