Cynthia Bailey, 52, is opening up about how she felt filming the latest season of Real Housewives of Atlanta with fellow co-star NeNe Leakes, 51, after their dramatic Season 11 blowout fight. In a brand new interview, the reality TV star EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife, “I was just a little uncomfortable because I know the space that we were in. That’s not a good space to be in especially when you know that you’re going to see someone. It’s not like I wasn’t going to see her, you know what I mean?”
“With that said, it was a little uncomfortable, but I am in a good place,” the former model continued. “I own accountability for anything that I may have done to hurt her, upset her or whatever she said. I own that, and once I own that and accept accountability, and attempt to find some resolution in that situation, then that’s all I really can do. I am in a good place. I feel like I couldn’t have done anything else other than what I did this season: try to build a respectful place with her. Not necessarily back to where we were, but at least to get to a respectful place.”
The reality television personality also revealed that she wasn’t the only one to make an effort to repair her and NeNe’s friendship; NeNe also put some work into it. “I think she made an effort. I think she made an effort. I definitely saw her redeem for sure,” Cynthia revealed. “We’re different people. We do it differently. She definitely, I saw her…I felt like she definitely made an effort to do the best that she can do the way that NeNe would do it.”
