NeNe Leakes earned her net worth from her role in “Housewives,” as well as her time as a contestant on Donald Trump’s “The Celebrity Apprentice.” During the tenth episode of Apprentice, NeNe decided she’d had enough, and walked off the show. There was a lot of tension between NeNe and Star Jones, which may have contributed to her decision to leave. NeNe was playing for the charity which she founded, The Twisted Heart Foundation, concerning domestic violence against women. But this non-profit organization is no longer in operation.
