'Real Housewives Of Atlanta' Season 8: NeNe Leakes Blasts Cynthia Bailey's 'Replacement Friend' Kenya Moore [VIDEO]
So what does NeNe Leakes’ return mean for Cynthia Bailey and Kenya Moore’s friendship? So far it’s not looking good on The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Bravo.
Kenya Moore & Her Boyfriend Take Their Relationship Up A Notch
In a teaser for what’s to come in an episode slated to air Sunday night, Phaedra Parks breaks the news to Leakes that Bailey and Moore are “besties.”
But Leakes isn’t buying it.
Sheree Whitfield and Porsha Williams try to convince her, so she asks Bailey directly, whose answer shocks her co-stars.
“Kenya and I are still getting to know each other. You don’t just like wake up and your BFFs overnight.”
Williams points out, “This is an example of Cynthia being a flip flopper. It’s like you’ve been sitting around with the side dude, now your main dude is back and you’re like ‘Oh no, no, I don’t know her.’”
Bailey adds that Moore’s actions during the whole drama surrounding her commercial and working with Kim Fields brought out “a side of Kenya that I do not like. I need her to put a twirl cape on and twirl right off the island if that’s how she’s gonna act.”
Leakes then urges Bailey to tell Moore, “You’re not my BFF. She was a solid replacement. But she’s not me girl. When we were divorced, Cynthia was still waiting for me…Yes, like Gregg.”
Leakes was referencing her brief divorce from her husband. The two ended up getting remarried roughly a year after the split was finalized.
