"We have put a lot of things behind us," the reality star said of her relationship with Bravo, NBC Universal and 'Real Housewives' Executive Producer Andy Cohen

Leakes' return was previously suggested by "RHOA" superfan Cynthia Erivo, which Leakes appreciated: "Cynthia, I love you, thank you so much!"

NeNe Leakes sparks RHOA return rumors after support from Cynthia Erivo, fueling discussions about her comeback.

Leakes said that a surprising number of celebrities watch “Real Housewives.” Among them: “Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo, who recently revealed to W Magazine that the show — especially the Atlanta and Potomac, Maryland, seasons — was one of her guilty pleasures.

Cynthia Erivo is a known fan of The Real Housewives franchise and recently expressed her wish to have Nene Leakes return.

NeNe Leakes is keeping the door open on a potential return to The Real Housewives of Atlanta. The reality TV star and OG of the beloved Bravo series recently appeared on The Tamron Hall Show, where she was asked directly if she would be open to returning to RHOA and holding a peach once again.

Despite being such an iconic part of The Real Housewives franchise and one of the original stars of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, NeNe Leakes has been absent from the franchise and didn't exactly leave Bravo on good terms.
