Gregg Leakes Backtracks After Siding With Cynthia Bailey At The Reunion — ‘I Fully Support My Wife At Every Turn’
April 15 2019, Published 7:45 p.m. ET
Nene Leakes and Gregg may be sleeping in separate bedrooms, but the Real Housewives of Atlanta star’s husband says he’s always supportive of his wife. After Gregg said Nene’s former bestie Cynthia Bailey was like a sister to him at the RHOA reunion, he’s quickly backtracked his support of the model.
Andy Cohen asked Gregg, 63, if Cynthia, 52, had been supportive during his cancer battle, to which he responded, “Absolutely! Cynthia is like a sister to me…really.”
Presumably because of Cynthia and Nene’s ongoing feud, Gregg retracted his statement on Instagram and wrote, “America... here is ‘why’ I said Cynthia is like a sister to me at the reunion. When asked the question from Andy, my mind went totally blank. All my thoughts just disappeared.”
Gregg continued, “What happened was, ‘in my head’, I could hear my wife saying she was like a sister to her in the past. So, I simply said what I heard the voice in my head saying.”

The RHOA husband ended his statement, “That’s why I said it... I fully support my wife at every turn. What was done to my wife was not sisterly. Thank you again, America for ALL your Prayers and Well Wishes.”
As fans know, Gregg is also in hot water with Nene, 51. During the RHOA reunion, she revealed they are sleeping in separate bedrooms and are seeking couples’ therapy.
