Despite all of the drama that exploded between Cynthia Bailey and her The Real Housewives of Atlanta and former bestie NeNe Leakes, Bailey revealed she still hopes to end the feud, even though she says the cast is more peaceful when Leakes is absent.

She spoke with Hollywood Life Thursday and said that she hopes the two can come to an agreement.

"I'm optimistic. I never really did anything to her in the first place. I've never really bashed her. I was still optimistic [on the show] that we could coexist and be cordial and respectful to each other in a working environment since we don't have the luxury of not being and never seeing each other."

She went on to say that the two being a part of the show together is one reason she wants them to be able to get along without any drama.

"I think as grown women, we should be able to respect each there and say 'Hello, hi I like your necklace, nice watch,' and just keep moving."

She ended by saying that she is definitely hopeful the two can "hug it out and move on."

She said she has already gotten past it. While their friendship is said to be over for good, it still isn't clear what caused the riff between the two ladies.

At the same time, she also admitted that the show would be a more peaceful one if Leakes was not a part of it.

"It's interesting: When NeNe's not in the equation, we all seem to have a good time together.. The Philippines trip, we had a great time together. Everyone got along and there wasn't any real drama or issues."
