The drama you’ve witnessed between NeNe Leakes, 52, and Kenya Moore, 49, throughout Season 12 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta was very real. Eva Marcille’s lack of hope for their friendship basically confirmed this while the Bravo star spoke EXCLUSIVELY with HollywoodLife! Although NeNe has put a lid on feuds with Porsha Williams, 38, and Cynthia Bailey, 53, Eva didn’t predict Nene to reach such a truce with Kenya. “I’m glad that NeNe made up with Porscha and Cynthia, they’re our girls, and you go through your stuff and you should be able to get through it. But I don’t know if where NeNe and Kenya are is a place that you can return from,” Eva told us.
Eva’s lack of confidence in NeNe and Kenya’s relationship has to due with something she has observed. “I don’t know, because it’s one of those [friendships] where it’s kind of toxic,” Eva explained. “It gets kind of wild child, it’s a lot, you know what I’m saying? To the point to where you have to get physical? You might not want to hang out with that person.” As fans will recall, NeNe and Kenya’s confrontation almost turned physical as they told each other to “shut the f–k up” during a verbal showdown earlier in the season. Both ladies had to be held back, which you can see in the clip below!
Eva was just echoing the thoughts she shared during her appearance on the Feb. 23 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. “Certain friendships you want to mend. And then sometimes it’s, like, you know, the season’s over. So, I don’t think [NeNe and Kenya are] going to be besties anytime soon,” Eva confessed to Andy Cohen! However, she did say that the two co-stars can be “respectful” on set.
NeNe and Kenya’s rivalry is nothing new. If you take a trip down memory lane, you’ll remember NeNe and Kenya were still going at in during the Season 6 and 7 RHOA reunions. This bad blood has been boiling for a long time!
