- The Secrets People Will Keep
- NeNe Leakes talks about the big hat brunch, the BBQ, and her DNA test.
As always, thank you all so much for supporting me!
The big hat brunch: Wow, beautiful! I decided to do the brunch with women only and the theme was big hats! I was so proud of myself. Domestic violence is serious and if I can help one women to get out, it would warm my heart. We all know the violence that took place with Jennifer Hudson's family and that could have been me or you! Let's work together and raise awareness of domestic violence!
The Bar-B-Q: DeShawn went out of her way to prepare a special Bar-B-Q for all of us and as you saw, Sheree and Kim decided not to show or call. The comment Kim made about chicken took me back a hundred years! Racist!
FYI: We had lamb and shrimp.
The DNA test: As you saw, Curtis is not my father. My heart broke! I can't believe the secrets people will keep.

Nene,
I was watching the show last night and you were talking about the man you t hought was your father not being your father.
Honey one thing you have to remember is any man can be a father but it takes a SPECIAL man to be a daddy. I speak from both sides of the coin. As one who was abandoned by her biological father and raised by a wonderful loving step dad and as a woman who's husband is strong enough to stand by her when she make a decision to ADOPT a child.
So Curtis isn't your biological father WHO CARES, if you love him and if he loves you and raised you with that love THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS!

NeNe I think you are a very beautiful person you remind me of me as I do say what is on my mind and if it hurts then it is the truth. No need for the bull. I wish I could do what you are doing as far as your father as I do not know mine and I will be 54 this monday so I feel it is too late. I also have always wanted to write a book as I am a light skinned sister and I pass for more white than black. I have heard it all from both sides and then some. Life is blessed for me but believe me life has had a lot of roller coasters and I ride them still. Since I don't live in a big city so it is hard to find someone that can help me with my book. Do you have any ideas I could use? Thank you and keep up the good work. God Bless You and all the cast in these hard times. Toni

Miss Nene Leakes,
I love the show and always love the scenes your in "telling it like it is". If you view this email and can get back to me, I am involved in a auxillary at my church and we are putting our ideas together to have a "Hat Brunch". Can you give me any ideas/tips so that my event can be as grand as the brunch you held in honor of domestic violence? Thanks Nene.

Keep it real always NeNe. I just love you and I feel you bring some great fun to the show. Let nothing get you down, your children are your future and your husband your back bone. He is your rock. Like Dwight says, "just pray for them!" I just love to see you and I feel you are real, and a great friend to anyone that wants to be just as true with you.

NeNe, it's obvious that is not your house or either you moved in the day of that video. I love you but you can see that is not your house. We know your the star so Bravo probably loaned you the house. We are your audience and fans but we are not stupid. Anyway...rock on sista!

NeNe, I have to start off by saying you kept it real on the show. (lol) I was very impressed about the big hat brunch and all of the ladies coming together for such a worthy cause. I have been with my husband for about 8 years now and just recently begin to realize that I am in a verbally abusive relationship. In a way I know that I have always known it, but I didn't identify it until recently. I've been reading literature about verbal abuse and everything I have read just makes me want to cry. He is always putting me down, and telling me I'm this, that, and the other, and I know that my faith in God and my love for my four kids has kept me going. I thank God that my self esteem has not been affected by this becuase I would be a total mess. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for helping me to take a look at my situation and think about what's best for me and my kids.

I really enjoyed the show, I love when people are true to themselves,REAL. You can see when someone is fake, see right through them. I dont understand why people who are fake dont like themselves, I mean come on thats obviously what it is they dont like who they really are, so why should i like them. Life to short to proform to an audience of people you think wont except you for being you, this shows lack of confidence with in yourself. If you dont like you why should I. I have alot of respect for you NENE,Lisa and Deshon. You all have beautiful families, just BEAUTIFUL (the others 2 ladies as well) But you 3 have a quility the othes ladies dont. Your REAL to yourselves, and I as a vewier apprecaite that in all three of you. When your FAKE it shows people , even through the television. CANT WAIT TILL THE NEXT SEASON. Tulsa,OK

Hi NeNe,
I've have send you words of support before, this time I would like to thank you for indirectly encouraging me to be strong, to stand up and speak out against people who take advantage of others. I was molested from the tender age of seven (7) or so by two (2) family members on different occasions and raped also, no one seemed to believed me not even my mother, I had been punished for just mentioning the facts of which I had to endure. I am now happily married with two (2) adorable sons, it is still however a thorn in my flesh for a lack of a better phrase. I know the burning inside of me is to create an awareness to young children no matter their gender and to express to parents especially mothers methods in handling such situations and how they can show support in spite of the hurt with they all call "bringing shame to the family name" while their kids grow up with no self-esteem or worth which streams into all other kinds of pressures like; teenage pregnancies, drug use, gangs, sexual activities, multiple partners and the list can go on. Although our situations are different the common fact is we both were hurt and abused and we are not the cause. I would really like to start a foundation for molested and raped children, I would really love if you can guide me in the right direction to getting started and how to successfully execute it.
NeNe,
please respond if you can help or know of anyone who would like to assist in getting this program started!!!

I just love you. You bring a much needed realness to the show. I think you rock. I am sorry that Curtis is your father. My heart goes out to you, but don't let things around you get you down. Stay Strong. Can't wait to see the next season.
Be Blessed,
Monica
