'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Reunion: Yovanna claims Nene told her to record, fans call her 'backstabbing liar'
The ‘snakegate’ situation caused a lot of drama on Season 12 of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’. When it was finally revealed that Nene Leakes’ friend Yovanna Momplaisir was the ‘snake’ who stealthily recorded Cynthia Bailey during a private conversation, Yovanna left without giving any explanation about why she recorded Cynthia. Yovanna was invited to the reunion to clear the air about the whole snakegate situation. Unfortunately, the moment Nene got a whiff of Yovanna’s appearance on the reunion, the housewife simply walked off the reunion video call. Nene's abrupt exit had the other housewives and fans wondering why the housewife left when she could have stayed back and heard what Yovanna had to say.
Host Andy Cohen cut to the chase and asked Yovanna if she was asked by Nene to record conversations. Yovanna responded with a yes and explained how she took her ‘loyalty’ towards Nene’s friendship a bit too far. Yovanna reveals that Nene asked her to find out what the other housewives were talking about her and report back to her, and Yovanna felt that it was alright to do that because she was Nene’s friend. The housewives looked a bit unconvinced. Porsha then points out to Yovanna how during the show, she admitted that she had no recordings, and just lied about it because she was upset with Cynthia. Yovanna just looked puzzled and tried getting out of it by pretending like that never happened. Fans felt that Yovanna was lying through her teeth about Nene asking her to record conversations, and slammed her for it.
A fan tweeted, "Yovanna or whatever her name is, is that backstabbing two-faced person from elementary school who lies all the time to fit in but never has real friends. She up here doing horrible acting on a TV show that's not even paying her. #RHOAReunion." Another fan wrote, "@Yovanna_love is a whole lie and a half. If anybody believes a word she’s saying, they’re a fool too. She’s an actress and been tryna get on this show for a while. That slow a** talking doesn't make you more convincing with that wrong a** makeup. #RHOA #RHOAReunion."
Fans felt that if Yovanna was indeed speaking the truth then she should have produced some receipts. A fan shared, “Yovanna is lying!!!! We saw Nene ask you for proof on the show and you took that to mean record them???!!!! Omg get the f**k out of here!!! Nene ain’t never had to do no sh*t like!!! #RHOAReunion #RHOA.” Another fan pointed, “Yovanna is lying and trying to get her peach. If that wasn’t the case then she would’ve hired a different attorney instead of Eva’s husband. The gag is Yovanna will NEVER EVER have a peach. Nene was right she’s thirsty. #RHOAReunion #RHOA."
