#TeamKandi Or #TeamPhaedra? NeNe Leakes Dishes On Kandi Burruss And Phaedra Parks' Feud

Looks like NeNe might be #TeamKandi on this one.
NeNe Leakes Dishes On Kandi Burruss And Phaedra Parks’ Feud
Michael Rowe
By Sydney Scott · Updated October 26, 2020

NeNe Leakes might be #TeamKandi.

The television personality and actress stopped by Watch What Happens Live, where a caller asked about her relationship with Real Housewives star Phaedra Parks. Leakes admitted that she doesn’t talk to Parks, adding that when she showed up in Jamaica last year, most of her former castmates hardly talked to her, choosing to whisper behind her back instead. 

“The last time I saw Phaedra was at the reunion and she doesn’t talk to me, I mean, I don’t have a problem with her,” Leakes said, telling host Andy Cohen that she actually still stays in touch with Burruss. 

Later, Burruss shared a clip from the show in which Leakes defended her decision to put Parks on blast, adding that NeNe’s comments perfectly summed up the situation.

I had to post this because @neneleakes just explained perfectly what I've felt. For those who wonder why I've reacted the way I have reacted this season. Im extremely loyal but for the last couple years I've kept my mouth closed while I was getting dragged on & off camera. So this year I was just done. At the end of the day we should respect girl codes but that means when the friendship is done you don't say anything about each other. Not just I don't say anything about you while you blast the hell out of me all the time. Please remember you guys only get bits & pieces of what you get to see on the show, Nene has been privy to info that y'all don't know so her perspective is a lot more clear on this situation. Isn't it funny to hear Nene & I on the same page. #JesusFixedIt 😉
