“Close your legs to married men,” NeNe told Kim during their first sit-down. And for the rest of their shared tenures on RHOA, they went from hot to cold at record speed, hurling witty one-liners, claims of cockroaches in bathrooms, and accusations of poorly treated assistants. But as NeNe recently revealed, she and Kim are thankfully in a much better place these days.

Earlier this month, NeNe chatted with Vulture. They asked her which reality TV feud was the best, and NeNe quickly answered, “Hands down, me and Kim Zolciak.” But as NeNe explained, she and Kim are no longer at odds.

Instead, “Kim and I are on a good page,” NeNe revealed. “We don’t have any problems. I’ve bumped into her several times,” she added, and “I actually just DM’ed her the other day,” so “Thank you,” NeNe sassed, hysterically batting her eyelashes to better emphasize her words.

As for Kim, last January, she also showed Nene some love. On Instagram, Nene posted an image of herself sitting down, wearing an orange floor-length gown. “Being a HBIC is NOT just a vibe, Issa Lifestyle,” NeNe captioned her post. And in the comments, Kim appeared, leaving NeNe several supportive flame emojis.

We love to see it. And soon, we will also see NeNe back on our screens when The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip Roaring 20th premieres on Bravo.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs on Sundays at 8/7, and you can stream it the next day on Peacock. Meanwhile, The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip Roaring 20th premieres on Bravo on August 9 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

TELL US – ARE YOU HAPPY TO HEAR THIS REPORT? WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE KIM AND NENE SHARING SCENES AGAIN ON BRAVO?
