Reality star Nene Leakes appears to have made herself a cozy spot in headlines following recent events. Amid her lawsuit against Bravo, Andy Cohen and “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” production reportedly over racism and creating a hostile environment, Leakes is facing her own legal troubles after being sued by her boyfriend’s estranged wife, Melamine Tehmeh-Sioh. 

However, during an interview with V-103’s “The Big Tigger Morning Show,” the 54-year-old dished on several ongoing matters catching social media by storm, including her reported recent surgical procedure, which included liposuction 360 and a “mini BBL” (Brazilian butt lift).

Now while the former “Housewives” star couldn’t speak on the suit against her former employer and its associates, she did confirm with co-hosts Patricia “Ms. Pat” Williams and  Shamea Morton that “we do have a lawsuit is all I can tell you,” she said as she chuckled. 

The “Glee” actress later addressed the $100,000 suit filed by Tehmeh-Sioh last June. The woman is claiming that Leakes slept with her estranged husband, Nyonisela Sioh, while he was still married to her.  

Leakes appeared to be just as confused as the hosts by the suit stating, “But as far as Nyoni’s wife or … they’re divorcing. So, I’m not sure exactly why she would sue me.”

In her suit, Melamine claims she was humiliated when Leakes flaunted their relationship online by posting photos with her husband. She said she’d suffered emotional distress, mental anguish and loss of affection. 

However, Leakes argued that “her and Nyoni were not together” before adding, “I didn’t meet him while he was with her. I spoke out about it.”

She continued, “I feel like it was more of a shakedown,” describing Melamine’s lawsuit attempt as “we can’t get him, let’s get her.” She added, “And of course, I can make a good headline for you.” 

The actress maintained that she’s “not the kind of person who would steal somebody’s husband” before questioning, “How does that work anyway?” Leakes began dating the Liberian businessman three months after the passing of her late husband, Gregg Leakes. 

She confirmed their relationship by sharing Instagram photos of the couple in December 2021.
