NeNe Leakes’s husband cancer returns

Former reality TV star NeNe Leakes has revealed that her husband Greg Leakes is battling cancer once more. In 2018 Greg was diagnosed with colon cancer, but it went into remission after treatment.

NeNe disclosed that Greg recently underwent during an Instagram Live interview with the Jasmin Brand.

“He’s in the hospital. He’s been in the hospital, tomorrow it’ll be a week,” 53-year-old NeNe shared when asked about her husband’s health. “I’m sure he’ll be home in about a week or so. He had to have a surgery, [because] his cancer did return.”

She added that she expects him to remain there for some time.

“He’s had this surgery before and he was in the hospital for about 15 days,” the former Bravolebrity explained of her husband’s treatment, adding that she expected him to remain there for the same amount of time,”

And she said the recurrence of the cancer has been hard on Greg and the family.

“If you’ve ever been around somebody who’s had cancer before, he’s different,” she shared. “He’s different.”

“I’d love for everybody to pray for Gregg, that would be beautiful. Pray for his strength,” NeNe said, adding, “And pray for me too.”
