According to NeNe Leakes, things in Atlanta aren’t as peachy-keen as they seem.
Star of the past The Real Housewives of Atlanta is suing Bravo, RHOA executive producer Andy Cohen and the production companies behind the hit reality franchise for allegedly allowing a racist and hostile work environment on set, according to court documents obtained by CelebHomes News.
The lawsuit—which also names NBCUniversal, True Entertainment and Truly Original as defendants—was filed in Atlanta federal court and states, “For years, NBC, Bravo and True have fostered a corporate and workplace culture that has permitted and tolerated—if not encouraged—racially offensive and insensitive conduct, statements and actions by their employees.”
The case’s legal documents also cite alleged examples of “racially-insensitive” behavior by Leakes’ former RHOA co-star Kim Zolciak-Biermann, though she is not listed as a defendant.
These documents say that Zolciak Biermann was allowed to make racially insensitive statements and/or conduct racially-offensive remarks from day one, and this without being subject to any remedial or meaningful consequences by NBC or Bravo.
