The Real Housewives of Atlanta are rallying around one of their own as NeNe Leakes and her family mourn the loss of her husband Gregg Leakes at the age of sixty-six. Gregg had been battling colon cancer since 2018, with a brief bout of remission, before it struck again in June of this year. Rallying through hospitals stays and surgeries, Gregg went through tough days that led up to his passing.
The news broke from Gregg’s friend and publicist, Ernest Dukes, and NeNe broke the social media world through a posting of the couple dancing. Although the two have had their own shares of ups and downs through a divorce back in 2011 and getting re-married in 2013, the love they showed throughout their relationship has everyone mourning the loss of a great man.
Gregg was surrounded by his close family and friends at the time of his passing. One thing is for certain – the impact that he had on those around him, and the Real Housewives of Atlanta is evident in the outpouring of love, support, and grief that is being shed.
