What Nene Leakes Didn’t Tell the ‘Wives About Gregg’s Cancer

Nene Leakes and her husband, Gregg Leakes, had an incredibly trying 2018. In June, The Real Housewives of Atlanta pal revealed that Gregg is battling colon cancer. And even as the couple puts up a brave fight, Nene has been honest about the emotional highs and lows they've faced throughout the past several months. So, to say that this Atlanta pair deserves a bright, shiny new year is an understatement — and it looks like they've already gotten a head start on that. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Peacock and the Bravo App.

On New Year's Day, Nene posted a photo of herself and Gregg dressed to the nines, and captioned the image with a holiday greeting that summed up her mood. "Happy New Year! We are blessed beyond words. #2019," she wrote.

Throughout Gregg's battle, he's had tons of support and love from all the Atlanta Housewives. But, as Kandi Burruss  and Cynthia Bailey shared on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 11 After Show, they were surprised to find out in a recent episode that Gregg still had cancerous cells after his surgery. And, they learned that even though he was advised to get chemotherapy, Gregg decided against it. See the 'Wives weigh in on the tough decision and hear NeNe tell why she stands by her man's decision in the video above. And catch the RHOA ladies every Sunday at 8/7c. Preview, below.
