There’s been a ton of inquiries in my inbox bout Nene Leakes and Kim Zolciak‘s RHOA reunion show “lovefest” and I initially refused to post about it because I knew it was all a farce.

Let me back up… I’ve maintained all along that Zolciak was given the boot from RHOA due to her bickering with fellow cast members about when and where they would tape.

The ?vets? (Nene Leakes, Pheadra Parks, Kandi Burruss?and?Cynthia Bailey) all banned together last summer and REFUSED to tape due to the fact that Kim either always left tapings early or sometimes wouldn?t show up at all.

I?ve said it several times but told y?all the whole story when I posted the Season 5 premiere a few weeks ago (click HERE?to revisit that post).

Nene even confirmed that Zolciak was history and that it would be “Brown Girls” only on RHOA…

Trust me when I tell you the two are not what they used to be… the real tea is that while the two may have made amends from their bitter past, they’re definitely NOT bosom buddies and now Nene is even denying that Kim is even a “friend”.

Details + video below below…

Kim and Nene are rumored to have officially squashed their ongoing beef and Zolciak gladly spilled the news via twitter a few weeks back, that she was back in Leakes’ good graces, stating:

Zolciak even expressed her love for Nene in a recent E! interview:

I do talk to NeNe, which I know is surprising to a lot of people, but we?ve had a long chat and we?re in a really good place.

She matters more to me than anyone else because we were friends years before ?Real Housewives.?

We have a lot of history together and my girls love her.

Leakes, on the other hand, hasn’t been as positive about her relationship with Zolciak and it seems her feelings are a stark contrast to Kim’s wordy response.

In fact, while she admits moving past the drama, Nene doesn’t consider Kim, who is believed to have uttered the “N” word in reference to her RHOA castmates on more than one occasion, as a “Friend”.

Nene recently clarified her true feelings about Kim with the following statement:

Lately people have been saying that Kim and I are back friends…

What I feel like that Kim and I did was let the past be the past and agree to move forward…. I just think the word ?friend? is a very strong word.

Welp…. I guess that statement about sums up Nene & Kim’s “Friendship”. 😯

Personally, I’m not surprised at Nene’s comments.? Whatever “relationship” Nene has with Kim from this point forward is all about the dough. So if Zolciak suddenly “appears” on RHOA next season you know why…

What do you think of Nene’s “clarification” about her and Kim being “Friends”?
