NeNe Leakes made headlines last spring when she reupped her contract with Bravo. As the most popular real housewife on the network, she nabbed $750,000 per season of Real Housewives of Atlanta, with $250,000 for the reunion. We can all agree those reunions are certainly worth the dollars! So that gives Leakes an annual salary of $1 million, plus bonuses. That rate makes her the highest paid housewife. Being hilarious certainly pays off!
