However, there is one 'Wife we know won't be back to throw any more shade: NeNe Leakes. She announced her exit earlier this summer and will now focus on other projects, including the reboot of the game show To Tell The Truth"I mean, frankly, it wasn't much of a surprise," Andy revealed. "We all kind of assumed that she wasn't coming back. She had kind of moved on with her life. She wasn't really hanging out with many of the women. And she was kind of over it, so think it just natural evolution had her growing away from the show. I hope that she'll come back and visit."
