Real Housewives of Atlanta Updates...

Morning Fam!

Word on the street is that "Real Housewives of Atlanta" breakout star (?) NeNe Leakes is about to get her own show! Miss NeNe just shot with Celeb photographer Derek Blanks and is looking absolutely FIERCE these days..... (Yeah! I'mma TOTALLY shoot with Derek Blanks myself one day....for real!)



Meanwhile NeNe's other ATL Housewife nemesis Sheree Whitfield is contesting her divorce settlement and allowing her attorney's to make an absolute ass of her to the public.....from EURweb:

*Sheree Whitfield, one of the cast members on Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," has filed an appeal with the Georgia Supreme Court regarding her divorce settlement from ex-husband Bob Whitfield.

In a "Housewives" episode, Whitfield made it known that she wanted a seven figure settlement in her divorce from the former Atlanta Falcons player.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Sheree was originally awarded $2,142.87 a month in child support for the couple's two kids, who were 8 and 11 when the Whitfields divorced after seven years in 2007.

She was also given more than $1.1 million in a marital property division, a lump sum payment of $775,000 and portions of three NFL retirement programs totaling somewhere in the neighborhood of $113,422 annually, but no alimony was awarded, the Fulton County public information officer revealed.

She also has been ordered to move out of a $2.6 million home in Sandy Springs, which she is fighting, saying she can't afford to buy a home in the neighborhood her kids are accustomed to.

Sheree's lawyers argue that her lack of education (she has only a high school diploma) and inability to earn income (her Bella Azul clothing boutique failed soon after opening) are in stark contrast to NFL retiree Bob, who received an $8 million signing bonus with the Falcons as part of a $30 million six-year contract. He's invested that money into real estate ventures in Costa Rica, California and Atlanta, and draws $50,000 a year from his Patchwerks recording studio.

Bob's lawyers believe Sheree should be fined $2,500 for bringing a frivolous appeal.
