12/3: NeNe Leakes and hubby leaves pricey Duluth home
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The New York Post and various gossip Web sites in recent days have dug up paperwork showing NeNe Leakes, the breakout star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” had been evicted from her Duluth home.
Or more specifically, her husband’s name Gregory was on the eviction notice.
We confirmed Tuesday that they are no longer living in the home featured on the show from the broker Darryl Pierce. He said the Leakes left the 5,000-square-foot home at 1765 Silvermere Ct. in Duluth in November after Winwood Properties filed the eviction notice in September. You can check out the house here and it’s for rent if for $2,995 a month..
Did she ultimately get evicted per se? She never quite says so.
The Powers That Be wanted this as a standalone story so you can access it here..
NeNe Leakes, in a series of emails Tuesday, would not say where she is now living. “It’s none of your business,” she wrote. But she noted that they “are financial able [sic] and stable to live where ever we feel fits.”
She clearly was not pleased with the fact we were writing about this although it’s newsworthy given the type of show she is on. Here’s one of her responses, verbatim:
“Clearly you guys have nothing else to report about. Housewives of Atlanta has been off for two weeks! And to answer your earlier question if you don’t already know, I AM the most popular housewife in franchise history and have offers from every directions on the table as we speak! And on an even more positive note, I will be having a launching of twisted hearts foundation website in the following weeks with a huge gathering! Happy writings!!”
She’s right. She is the most popular housewife on the show. It’ll be interesting to see how she capitalizes on her fame. Bravo has to be thrilled with how big the show has become. It opened at about 650,000 viewers. The reunion show last week? 2.8 million viewers, which is a big number for Bravo. And more than 2 million of those viewers were in the coveted 18 to 49 year old demo.
We never claimed to be the first people to get this information. In fact, we were a bit late. This Web site claims to have been the first and isn’t happy that we didn’t give them credit, though we did our own independent work on it. The site does have fun with my last name.
