She said what she said! Real Housewives of Atlanta OG, NeNe Leakes is setting the record straight after a report claimed she was fired from the reality show ahead of season 13.

NeNe Leakes’ manager, Steven Grossman, immediately shot down the rumors and issued a statement to Us Weekly.
“It is absolutely not true that NeNe has been fired from RHOA. Furthermore, it was made abundantly clear prior that she will always be welcome on the series as long as she wants to be. We are having ongoing bigger picture conversations with NBCUniversal and have not made any decisions regarding next season specifically. Any speculation or sources trying to create controversy by stating otherwise are incredibly inaccurate. Bloop.”
The online report claimed a source told them that NeNe Leakes did not receive an offer letter for season 13 after Bravo emailed them to other cast members.
As reported, Eva Marcille is the only RHOA cast member who has been fired from the network.
