It seems like Nene is finally over the housewives franchise. For the past couple of seasons NeNe has hinted that she will be quitting the Houseflies of Atlanta, but she has finally official made a decision. Nene exclusively told PEOPLE, that she will not be returning for the 8th season.
Nene exclusively tells People the reason why she has decided to leave the hit show & if she will ever return:
“This was definitely a hard decision for me. Me and my husband [Gregg Leakes] have been going back and forth on it for weeks now. But my contract is up and I just think this is the right time. This is my opportunity to spread my wings and do different things.”
“I feel a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. There were times when I was a target. I won’t miss the negativity.
I think some of the girls will be happy [I’m leaving]. They always felt like I was the star, and they were never able to really shine with me there, so here’s their opportunity to shine.
[They get too comfortable, though] I’m not saying I’m gone forever. I’ll probably pop up and play with those girls every now and then.”
Nene’s also discusses her new project after Houseflies of Atlanta:
“I’m actually going to be doing a new primetime television show with a big legend. All of my fans will get to see me be really happy, witty and funny and tell all of those one liners that I always have said on Housewives.”
We love @NeNeLeakes & she is always welcome back to the house she helped build! She's a Real Housewife forever!!

Will you be turning in to the new season of Houseflies of Atlanta when it returns? I’ll probably start watching more football games now since the star of the show is gone.
