A video is worth a thousand words.
NeNe Leakes has not yet spoken out after the death of her husband, Gregg Leakes, but they shared a sweet memory of them together.
The 53-year-old former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star posted a clip of the couple dancing slowly on Johnny Gill’s “It would be you” on Instagram.
He subtitled the video “❤️💔❤️💔❤️💔”.
Gregg died Wednesday at the age of 66 after losing the battle against colon cancer.
The real estate investor was first diagnosed with the disease in 2018, but then moved on to remission after undergoing six months of chemotherapy.
However, in June, things changed for the worse, with NeNe confirming that Gregg’s cancer had returned.
The former “Fashion Police” host revealed in a leaked video taken from her Atlanta salon, The Linnethia, in late August that her husband was “making the transition to the other side.”
She added, “You don’t know what we’re dealing with right now.”
NeNe took to Instagram on August 29 to share with her followers that she was struggling with the fact that her husband was dying, sharing an image that simply read “Broken” with a prayer emoji and a broken heart emoji.
Famous fans and friends immediately commented with words of encouragement, including rapper Trina, who wrote, “Praying heavily for you and your family 🧡🙏🏽🥺.”
Todd Chrisley added, “Love and prayers for you always.”
NeNe and Gregg’s son Brentt also shared an emotional message on social media that led to his father’s death.
He wrote in an Instagram story that had already expired: “Spend time with your loved ones every time you have them. Time is so … valuable dog. I can’t express it. I’m learning in the hardest way watching my father fight every day. “
NeNe and Gregg first married in 1997 but divorced in 2011. They remarried in 2013. They only share their son, Brentt, but Gregg leaves behind five other children from a previous relationship.
