Nene Leakes Calls Kim Zolciak-Biermann And Daughter Brielle "Racist" Over Roach Video

Nene Leakes Calls Kim Zolciak-Biermann And Daughter Brielle “Racist” Over Roach Video

By Sydney Scott · Updated October 26, 2020
Nene Leakes and Kim Zolciak-Biermann are beefing once again, this time over a video Kim’s daughter Brielle shared on social media. In a video shared to Snapchat, Brielle poses for a selfie in Nene’s bathroom, squatting on the floor because “this bathroom has no mirror besides the sink.” Next to Brielle is what looks to be a black bug. Kim’s daughter then posted another video in which a large black bug, which looks like an ant, crawls across the floor as Brielle looks on in disgust.

Leakes shared the video on Instagram, firing back at the 20-year-old, “We don’t have roaches! If you found 1, u brought it with u or it fell outta yo funky p—y!” Nene also alluded to the video on Wednesday, captioning one Instagram post, “On the way back to the A, I fell asleep thinking about how imma live in my ROACH infested brand new home.” Kim has fired back alleging Brielle was “unaware of the large bug in front of her when she was kneeling down .. until her DM’s blew up!”

First off that video is a combination of 2 videos! I COMBINED THEM! Brielle posted the first video on snap unaware of the large bug in front of her when she was kneeling down .. until her DM's blew up! She removed the video immediately!! I was filming as an INVITED guest at @neneleakes for RHOA!! Brielle was invited as well! Brielle went to the bathroom and saw several bugs and had sent ME the video on snap and NO ONE ELSE!!! We ARE filming a show, remember that, (RHOA) and Nene released this video herself! No one has EVER seen this video but RHOA! Nobody would have ever seen this video! Nene has said and done some things that are absolutely disgusting, however I will take the high road as you will see it on the show soon enough, but you WILL NOT make it seem as though my daughter did ANYTHING wrong! She never posted this video nor would she! As you see here I myself was not willing to send the video just for ratings for RHOA. END OF STORY

She added that Nene’s claims of racism were “heartbreaking” and “sad.” “Everyone in my life knows that I am far from racist and unfortunately Nene Leakes has tried for the last ten years to paint that picture because that’s her last resort,” Kim wrote on Instagram.

At this point I almost feel sad for you @neneleakes I had hoped for many yrs you would have seen the bigger picture but it's evident you haven't, I will continue to pray for you.

A source told E! News that the on-again off-again friends are beefing about something much bigger. “This started because apparently Nene was talking negatively about Kim on the cast trip and it got back to Kim. They’ve had this video with roaches in it and because of what they’d heard about the cast trip, Brielle released it.” Guess we’ll all just have to wait and see how this plays out.
