NeNe Leakes’ 23-year-old son, Brentt Leakes, reportedly suffered a heart attack and a stroke earlier this month.
Thankfully, he survived and is recovering.
According to sources close to the situation, Brentt was hospitalized in Atlanta for several days.
He is now out of the hospital and is in rehabilitation.
Brentt appeared on several episodes of “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” during Nene’s time on the show, along with his older brother Bryson.
NeNe Leakes has not spoken publicly about Brentt’s health crisis or current condition.
She lost Brentt’s father, Gregg Leakes, last year after his long battle with cancer.
UPDATE
NeNe Leakes has taken to social media to speak out about Brentt’s health crisis.
The former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star was very transparent when she shared that this is not the way that she wanted the information about Brentt to come out.
However, she did confirm that her son suffered congestive heart failure and a stroke about two weeks ago.
Doctors have no clue what triggered the heart failure and stroke, but they have run multiple tests on Brentt, including drug and HIV tests.
According to NeNe, Brentt is in good spirits however, he is struggling with his speech.
She did share that although the Linnethia Lounge is still open and operating she is considering selling the club to focus on Brentt’s health crisis.
We pray that Brentt Leakes makes a full and speedy recovery and we pray for NeNe’s strength during this challenging time.
