With the current season 7 of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’coming to an end shortly, comes the never ending speculation of who will stay and who will go. The past few seasons the resident original cast member Nene Leakes has fueled these conversations with remarks surrounding her departure.

In a recent string of interviews Leakes has opened up about her future on the show, and implied that she wasn’t sure how much longer she would stay due to her disdain for the constant drama with her cast mates. (Although its the same drama that we’ve watched for and made her famous for the past 7 seasons)

During her interview on ‘The Meredith Vieira Show’, she hinted at her leaving after season 7 “I am at a point where I don’t know how much longer I can stay in this situation, and during her visit to ‘The Real’ as we showed you, she revealed “I don’t want to sit in work everyday and argue and fuss and fight with girls. Honestly, I don’t!”

Well this past week during a new interview with Buzzfeed Nene revealed that she was offered her own spin off but that she has declined because having your own show has a lot of pressure that she is not ready for.

“When you do a show by yourself, that’s a lot of pressure. You are the entertainment. I’ve been offered my own show. [But] I don’t want the pressure. You need people around you to balance off of and play off of.” she said.

While on the subject of whether she will return to RHOA for season 8 and beyond` she says maybe not full time but you will definitely see her in some capacity.

“I’m known from that show. I started there. I can’t say that I will remain full time all th time. I feel like I always want to be able to play. I always want to see the show do well. So in order for the show to do well, I feel like I can’t…I don’t want to abandon the show. When the time comes for me to tally step away, I’m sure I will. I just don’t know when.”
