“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” is always good for producing some high-profile scandals, and the latest one for the show is the gossip concerning the sexuality of Kim Fields’ husband, Chris Morgan. While many of the cast mates have made it clear how they feel about Chris, NeNe Leakes has gone back and forth between laughing at the gossip and trying to remain respectful to Fields. But now she’s finally shared her real thoughts on what she thinks of Chris.
As fans of the show know, the gossip was kicked into high gear last week during the ladies’ trip to Jamaica when all of the ladies, sans Kim, got together for drinks and some of the ladies described Chris as flamboyant and “delicate” and claimed that his reads were on par with theirs.
However, the gossip turned serious when Kenya Moore, who has been at odds with Fields nearly the entire season, claimed that there have been rumors in Black Hollywood about Chris’ sexuality for years and that people mockingly refer to him as “Chrissy” in the industry.
During last night’s episode of “RHOA,” the ladies spoke with Kim about the rumors and she refused to entertain the drama, saying that she has an amazing husband and that she’s not even aware of the rumors about her man.
After the episode aired, Leakes appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” and when host Andy Cohen claimed that she was one of the ladies hinting that Chris is gay, Leakes vehemently denied that she was instigating any drama.
“I was not! OK, let’s be clear, Andy Cohen, you are not gonna throw me under the bus!” Leakes said.
“Let me just say there was something that happened on the real bus in Jamaica that was never seen on the show that Phaedra, Porsha and myself were talking about. Like, we had a little run-in with Chris and Chris apologized later. So I think that’s where our comments were coming from,” she explained.
Leakes then shared that she doesn’t think that Chris is gay.
“Secondly, I also wanna say that Chris was recently at my home. He was there at my home during the Super Bowl. I do not think that Chris is gay. Now, if I think you [sic] gay, I would say it. But I don’t think that Chris is gay at all. So I wanna be clear about that,” Leakes said.
We’re glad that Leakes and Chris cleared up their issues. And we’re also glad that Leakes clarified her thoughts on Chris. Unfortunately, the rumors will likely get a second life when the ladies inevitably talk about it during the upcoming reunion show.
