'Real Housewives Of Atlanta' Season 9 Cast: NeNe Leakes Hit With $800,000 Tax Bill
Reality star NeNe Leakes is the latest celebrity to owe nearly a million dollars in taxes.
Leakes, whose claim to fame is her slot on Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta, is said to owe the IRS $824, 366.01 in back taxes from 2014, according to The Daily Mail Wednesday. Leakes was hit with the bill on July 22 in a Georgia court.
Interestingly enough, 2014 is the year Leakes competed in ABC’s Dancing With The Stars. She also announced her The NeNe Leakes Collection that was featured on the Home Shopping Network. She also starred in Roger and Hammerstein’s Cinderella on Broadway.
Word is her assets are at risk and could be taken by the federal government if she does not pay up.
It’s not clear what assets could be the first to go, but she did pay out $2 million for her brand new home in 2015. It features six bedrooms, six bathrooms and sits on 9, 511 sq. ft. in the Atlanta suburb Deluth, Ga.
She has yet to speak out on the reports. And it might not come up as a topic of conversation on the upcoming ninth season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta as she has said she has no plans to return to the show. This will be the first season that Leakes will not be in since the show first premiered in 2008.
The rest of the ladies have started filming and the show is slated to return from hiatus this fall.
