After starring on seven seasons on The Real Housewives of Atlanta over the years, NeNe Leakes is reportedly suing the companies behind the show for a hostile and racist work environment.
Leakes, 54, filed a lawsuit against NBCUniversal, Bravo, production companies True Entertainment and Truly Original and executive producer Andy Cohen in Atlanta, Georgia, on Wednesday, April 20, according to multiple reports.
The Hollywood Reporter revealed that the legal documents state, “NBC, Bravo and True foster a corporate and workplace culture in which racially-insensitive and inappropriate behavior is tolerated – if not, encouraged.”
The New York native’s lawsuit reportedly accused former costar Kim Zolciak-Biermann of racist remarks that went unaddressed. After Leakes joined the hit Bravo series in 2008, Zolciak-Biermann, 43, allegedly made several comments that “perpetuated an offensive stereotype about African-Americans.”
The fashion designer also pointed out that her concerns were ignored by executives at the time. “From the day the series began filming, NeNe was the target of systemic racism from co-star Kim Zolciak-Biermann, which was tolerated by Bravo executive producer Andy Cohen and other executives,” Leakes’ lawyer David deRubertis said in a statement on Wednesday.
The television personality originally announced her departure from RHOA in season 7 before returning for season 10. In September 2020, Leakes revealed that she would be exiting again ahead of the show’s 13th season. “I have made the hard and very difficult decision to not be a part of Real Housewives of Atlanta season 13,” she said on her YouTube channel at the time. “It wasn’t an easy decision for me.”
