NeNe Leakes to star in “I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding Special” on Bravo
NeNe Leakes is about to get a whole lot richer! In addition to returning to The Real Housewives of Atlanta for the show’s sixth season, the new grandmother has also landed her own show. Bravo cameras will follow her and husband-to-be (again) Gregg Leakes as they walk down the aisle in their own wedding special.
The series is tentatively titled I Dream Of NeNe and is set to debut this fall. NeNe enlists the help of celebrity wedding planner Tiffany Cook for her big day, which will feature her close friends, including RHOA‘s Cynthia Bailey and Marlo Hampton.
After 14 years of marriage, NeNe filed for divorce from Gregg in April of 2010 during the third season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. In September of 2011, their divorce was final. The following year, the two began getting close again and by the summer of 2012, they seemed to be an official couple once again.
On New Year’s Eve, Gregg proposed to NeNe for the second time and she accepted.
As for her big day, NeNe tells In Touch, “I want the wedding planner to take over and make all the decisions. The most important thing about this wedding is the fact that Gregg and I have a second chance.”
Housewives wedding specials are something Bravo seems particularly fond of. You will probably recall Bethenny Frankel’s Bethenny Getting Married, which continued for three seasons, and Kim Zolciak’s Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding which has just returned for a second season, both under new, slightly modified post-wedding titles.
