LEAKES IS NOT LEAVING

Rumors had been circulating that Leakes has been fired from the show. However, her manager denied the claims, saying that she was always welcome on the series for as long as she wants to be.

A spokesperson from "Bravo" also confirmed that Leakes was still onboard. Another talk of the town is that Phedra Parks will be making a return although nothing has been confirmed yet.

Back in January, Wendy Williams claimed that Leakes was quitting "Real Housewives of Atlanta" during her talk show. The news quickly spread like wildfire, with Leakes even admitting that it was true.

However, Leakes also added that she was still debating it. She said that it was a big conversation that she needed to have with the show's producers.

Meanwhile, Eva Marcille chose not to renew her contract for the upcoming season of the show. Marcille, who argued with Leakes and Porsha Williams for the majority of the 12th season, hinted that she was not really happy about doing the show.
