Less than three months after NeNe Leakes shared her belief that Cynthia Bailey played a role in her Real Housewives of Atlanta firing, it looks like everything is all good between them!
On Tuesday (Oct. 17), NeNe shared an Instagram post noting that, while at a recent event supporting Magic Johnson, she “bumped into a ton of Atlanta socialites.”
While NeNe didn’t go into too much detail, a follow-up upload on Wednesday (Oct. 18) revealed that she and fellow RHOA alum Cynthia Bailey brushed shoulders.
“Listen chile…I told y’all I stepped out the other nite and bumped into several other people but what I didn’t tell you is that I bumped into The Cynthia Bailey hunni.”
She went on to write that she “had to read her down,” though NeNe revealed she was joking and noted that they had a great time. After all, she “can’t hold a grudge for too long!”
“Y’all know I can’t hold a grudge for too long! we literally laughed our a**es off! I am talking burst out loud ghetto laughter hunni.”
Beneath NeNe’s post, plenty of fans were absolutely here for the development. One user going by @mefisto73 hilariously referenced Cynthia’s “friendship contract” antic, which viewers saw unfold on RHOA.
“Friendship contract renewed!!”
Marlo Hampton showed support by writing a few heart emojis, and @_romeko warmly remarked, “Now this makes my heart glee. Looove Nene and Cynthia together.”
Of course, we have to note that Cynthia posted the same image, which was accompanied by a sweet message.
“yes, we have been through our ups and downs, but the love was always real. life is precious and way too short. i cherish all the incredible & UNFORGETABLE memories. moving forward in love, peace & always laughter.”
This update follows NeNe sparking speculation that Cynthia “had a hand” in her firing.
As The Shade Room reported, NeNe made the comment during her sit-down with Carlos King, and she did not hold back while accusing Cynthia of pulling behind-the-scenes antics.
“She was definitely trying to stop [my bag] from Bravo. I know a lot of things she did. … She was in an alliance with Housewives and behind the scenes with producers and the network. I think she had a hand in trying to get [me fired].”
NeNe also cryptically added, “I just know some of the things that she has done behind the scenes that I could just never, ever, ever respect.”
While Leakes said she and Bailey could “work together,” she didn’t think it “would ever be possible” for them to reconcile.
Despite NeNe Leakes’ commentary, it looks like she and Cynthia Bailey are moving forward!
