Sheree Whitfield has hit back at NeNe Leakes after finding out that she called her boyfriend Tyrone Gilliams a “con artist”.
Sheree says in reference to NeNe after being told about the comment by Kandi Burruss on The Real Housewives of Atlanta: “I mean, we can go down a list of a lot of things people have done that could possibly put them in jail — but we’re not going to do that.”
She adds in an interview with producers: “Really Nene? You and Gregg [Leakes] both have mugshots. You don’t always have to bring up ‘this happened, this happened, this happened’.”
NeNe made the comment about Tyrone Gilliams — who has been serving a 10-year term for an alleged multi-million-dollar fraud – earlier in this season of RHOA.
Tyrone, who was at the center of one of RHOA’s most iconic fights back in season 4, had long had a close relationship with Sheree before the pair decided to take things to the next level.
This week’s Real Housewives of Atlanta also sees Sheree join Kenya Moore to take part in a PSA about domestic violence — but she struggles to get there after being involved in a car accident.
The reality star’s back was injured when someone rear-ended her vehicle after failing to pay attention at the wheel, and footage on the episode shows her breaking into tears as she struggles to walk.
Recalling the incident, Sheree says: “I’m driving along the highway and traffic comes to a complete stop. I put on my brakes to stop, the person behind me obviously was not paying attention and slammed into the back.”
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo.
