The drama definitely intensified during the Real Housewives of Atlanta cast trip to Barcelona. Kim Zolciak sent shock waves through the group when she sent a group text with a video of bugs in NeNe Leakes’ bathroom and a photo of NeNe’s car parked in a handicap space.
Kim wasn’t even on the trip and she caused the most drama. Now, all of the Atlanta ladies are sounding off about the group message.
After a break in their friendship, Cynthia Bailey and NeNe are back to being besties, so of course Cynthia is on #TeamNeNe in this dispute. During an interview for Bravo’s The Daily Dish podcast, Cynthia was asked, “Have you seen that video before it got sent to the group?”
Cynthia answered, “I don’t remember. I had never seen it, but I feel like there was talk about it. I don’t even know if I knew that it existed. I can’t remember if I had ever seen it before. Because it was after the reveal in Barcelona that it was on Instagram or something. I just get the time line confused. I had my own problems in Barcelona.”
It’s hard to hate on Cynthia. She is usually so perfect, but how does she “not remember” that someone told her about a video shoot that took place in NeNe’s bathroom. Is she covering her bases in case someone calls her out for knowing about the recording without telling NeNe about it? Or is she just genuinely unsure because there is just so much drama to keep up with as a cast member on this show?
Cynthia went in on Kim: “Kim’s message was even more appalling than the video. She was going in and she was taking a picture of NeNe’s car. So you didn’t see NeNe, but you saw her car and took the time to circle back and take a picture of it in a handicap spot? It was just a lot. Unbelievable really. Who does all this? Who comes into someone’s home and does videos? Who has the time to jump out of their car and take the time to take a picture of someone else’s car?” Someone who needs material for two different reality TV shows.
Cynthia continued, “[NeNe] was genuinely upset about that situation. On camera and off camera. She was really hurt. She works really hard. She has a beautiful house and the last thing you want is things you have worked for- no one has given her anything- she didn’t have the help of a Big Papa or somebody around.” That last part was definitely some shade at Kim’s early days as a Real Housewife.
She also explained, “[Kim] doesn’t know the situation with the handicap thing. Gregg [Leakes] was recently in the hospital and all of that can be justified. It’s just a matter of ‘let me just try to make you look bad.’

TELL US- DO YOU BELIEVE THAT CYNTHIA “DOESN’T REMEMBER” IF SHE KNEW KIM ZOLCIAK HAD A VIDEO OF NENE’S BATHROOM BEFORE SHE SENT IT TO THE GROUP? WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON: KIM’S OR NENE’S?
