After this revelation, Gregg quickly apologized sincerely via social media to his beloved wife for hurting her consistently, claiming that she never wronged him but offered tremendous help during his health crisis.

Irrespective of his wrongdoings, the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum confirmed that she never wanted him to suffer such excruciating pain and questioned if the illness was the wage for his deeds.

After their first marriage, the couple had two sons, and although Gregg had other kids from former relationships, NeNe decided to stay put. However, when it was time for a second vow exchange, the mother of two opted to sign a prenup to protect herself and the marriage.
