Kim Zolciak Twins Born, Return to 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Next? 'I Can't Say I Wouldn't Go Back' [VIDEOS]
NeNe Leakes recently confessed that she misses her original Real Housewives of Atlanta co-stars -- and now it looks like she might be getting one of them back.
Her former "frenemy," Kim Zolciak, told In Touch Weekly she is open to rejoining the show following her departure during season 5. The mother of six gave birth to twins, Kane Ren and Kaia Rose, on Nov. 25 and said she is now ready for reality TV again.
"Now that I'm done having babies, I can't say that I wouldn't go back," she said. "For the most part, I enjoyed my time on the show."
As for who she looks forward to working with and who she doesn't mind leaving behind, the Don't Be Tardy.... star said, "NeNe Leakes and I are cool, and Cynthia Bailey is sweet. But the rest of the women are useless!"
Leakes and Zolciak have had their ups and downs on the reality series, though they started in season 1 as the best of friends. They vowed never to be friends again in later seasons, but Leakes had a change of heart and called Zolciak personally to invite her to her wedding when she remarried her ex-husband, Gregg, in June 2013.
Leakes revealed that while making the guest list to include some of her Glee and The New Normal cast members, Zolciak's name came up and she decided to extend an invitation.
"If you had asked me this a month ago, or maybe even a year ago, I would probably have said Kim would never be at my wedding. But I feel like, absolutely, I just think she should be invited," she said. "She's just a part of so much history that's happened."
Leakes gave Zolciak a call and the latter answered the phone saying, "Crazy?" before confirming that she would attend the nuptials. Leakes told her they should work on staying friends instead of enemies. Leakes then hung up and said, "We always pick up where we left off."
Viewers got to see the phone call and their reunion at the ceremony when it was aired on Bravo's I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding special.
Two women Zolciak might butt heads with if she returns to RHOA is her former friend Kandi Burruss and Phaedra Parks. Burruss and Zolciak battled it out in the courtroom in late 2013 when Burruss sued her for the Tardy for the Party song she wrote for her former co-star. Parks, who is a high profile attorney in Atlanta, represented Burruss. Zolciak was accused of cheated Burruss out of much of the song's profits. A judge ended up ruling in Zolciak's favor.
Season 6 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs on Bravo Sundays at 8/7c.
