'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star NeNe Leakes is in a tough spot, with nothing going for her at the moment. 

In this week's episode, we see her trusting herself completely in her life coach's hands, who is doing more harm to her than good simply because she is not letting her know where she went wrong and how that bit can be worked upon and improved.

Instead, Nene is continuously being pushed in a direction, which only flares up her ego, making her think she's bigger than her castmates and the show. 

On 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen', host Andy threw shade at Nene when running a snippet of the episode on his show introducing it with these lines: "Nene felt a bit lost on her spiritual journey so she stopped and asked her life coach for directions."

Kenya Moore, who is also a part of 'RHOA', was on the show when the snippet aired, following which she spoke openly about how Nene has been all over the place and added that her life coach is failing her.



 

As much as Nene wants to get her storyline right on track and get on with her "sisterhood", her actions speak otherwise. After the episode aired, Nene shared a barrage of tweets that obliquely hinted at how she runs 'RHOA' and that showing her just once per episode will not do anyone any good. 

'Me being seen ONCE per episode. They try so hard and these girls still can’t bring it without me. #threaten you wouldn't be a star even if I was gone boo #thirst," she tweeted.

The tone might be smug, but there's a good section of people rooting for her for sharing her vulnerable side on the show, with some even calling it a brave move. 

"Let’s talk about how in ALL her scenes @NeNeLeakes is taking about bettering herself and self-accountability.... BUT EVERYONE HAS PRETTY MUCH DOGGED HER IN ALL OTHER SCENES #RHOA," a fan wrote.

Another shared that what she may have meant in her segment of the video was every cast member's gossips, but her name gets dragged into the mess all the time. 

Even the cheerleaders are few and far between, they'd come in handy when Nene is shown the pink slip. Interestingly, there have been rumors of canceling the OG's contract.

Talking to Hollywood Life, the 'RHOA' star said there multiple things that aren't fair, but she is not in a position to comment on whether or not she's quitting the show. 

Will she, will she not? Only time will tell. Catch all-new episodes of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' on Bravo TV every Sunday.
