The 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' alum says she reached out to her former co-star 'because she reached out to me during the time when I was really going through something.'

AceShowbiz - NeNe Leakes remains supportive of Kim Zolciak despite their drama. The "Glee" alum revealed that she reached out to her former "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" co-star amid her "hard" divorce from Kroy Biermann.

The 55-year-old made the revelation when speaking to TMZ on Wednesday, July 5. "I don't know how she's doing overall. I just reached out to her because she reached out to me during the time when I was really going through something," she told TMZ, referring to the death of her late husband, Gregg Leakes.

"I would have to think she's taking it hard," the TV personality further noted. "It's divorce. It's not easy."

NeNe and Kim's bad blood has been well-documented on the Bravo show. NeNe even filed a lawsuit against Andy Cohen and Bravo in Atlanta federal court in April last year, claiming that the team ignored her complaints about years of racist remarks from Kim.

NeNe claimed in 2012 during the fifth season, Kim made "racially offensive and stereotypical" comments about her and Kandi Burruss, calling her neighborhood a "ghetto." In the same year, Kim reportedly used the N-word to refer to NeNe and other Black housewives in a dispute.

NeNe stated in the suit that she has complained to the executives about Kim's actions. However, they "did not terminate their relationship with Zolciak-Biermann, nor take any other meaningful action to put an end to her racially-offensive behavior" and rewarded her own spin-off series instead.

While she was not suing Kim, NeNe listed NBCUniversal, Bravo, production companies True Entertainment and Truly Original and Andy as defendants. She, however, decided to drop the suit without prejudice.
