In another scene, Mama Joyce is seen telling Burruss, in a private conversation, that Tucker "doesn't have the money to pay" off a condo. The drama seems to heighten with Tucker confronting Burruss in front of their daughters saying: "Her, your mama, and your family, y'all so disrespectful."The "<keyword id="13507713" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="rhoa" source="Orion">RHOA</keyword>" star met Tucker on set while he was working as a producer of the long-running Bravo series.

The two wed on April 4, 2014, with cameras rolling for Burruss' spinoff, "Kandi's Wedding." In 2016, Burruss and Tucker started working to open OLG, a family-run eatery inspired by Mama Joyce and her sisters. Four years later, the two opened Blaze Steak and Seafood in Atlanta, named after their youngest daughter whom they welcomed in 2019 via surrogate.The secret sauce to the couple's partnership, both in running restaurants and their household, is "communication" said Burruss."We are never disrespectful to each other — even when we're angry, it's only so far the conversation is going to go," she added. "So, I think we know how to give each other that moment to cool down and then come back to it and try to compromise.""<keyword id="13479016" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="kandi-and-the-gang" source="Orion">Kandi and the Gang</keyword>" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.

It quickly becomes clear that this Atlanta eatery has a lot more cooking than just southern dishes.Burruss told Insider that "Kandi and the Gang" revealed to her for the first time some of the relationships that took place between the restaurant's staff. "Some of the relationships that are happening in our restaurant — some of them I think 'okay.' But some of them I didn't know they had hooked up!" she said."Like, I knew some people were liking each other or whatever, but a couple of them, I was like 'who, what?' I didn't know that was going on. It was a surprise!" the "Real Housewives" star added. Staff romance is prevalent on the show. One of the fan-favorite relationships to watch develop has been between OLG's manager, Brandon Black, and OLG's bartender, Dom'Unique Variety. Black even revealed on the show that he started working at OLG after seeing Variety working there.<div type="image" title="&quot;Kandi and the Gang&quot; cast members Brandon Black, Dom’Unique Variety" height="373" width="497" msid="90476895" hostid="261"></div>And Burruss isn't afraid to show all facets of restaurant life — both front of the house and back. When asked if she fears opening up her restaurant's issues to the world and having that potentially impact sales, she admitted she was a bit concerned."On one hand, we wanted to show people that even though we're 'celebrities,' we still have the same struggles that other business owners have when it comes to having your own small business," Burruss told Insider."We were trying to let people see that we have to deal with a lot of the same things. But at the same time, you know, a lot of times people want to see you as perfect, and they don't wanna see the struggles," she said. "Kandi and the Gang" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.

I did not agree," she said. Buruss explained how Leakes would "tell everybody she was the highest-paid on our show.""You can't brag about being paid the most out of anybody and then say that they're not treating you right," she said.<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Dxft4Troi3Y" frameborder="0"></iframe>Ahead of season 13 of "RHOA" in 2020, Leakes who appeared on the show since 2008, announced in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIxcCVqvUpU">YouTube video</a> that she would not be returning for another season, calling it a "hard and difficult decision" and implying that there were issues with contract negotiations.<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BIxcCVqvUpU" frameborder="0"></iframe>Since her announcement, Leakes has been vocal about her feelings. <a href="https://www.etonline.com/nene-leakes-says-she-was-definitely-forced-out-of-rhoa-153753">A month after her announcement</a>, she replied to a Twitter user who wrote: "@NeNeLeakes that's Maliki [sic] it sound like they forced you out! Is that the story you want out there. 'They didn't want u to work in any capacity?'""They definitely did," Leakes responded. When Wendy Williams appeared on Andy Cohen's show "Watch What Happens Live," the two discussed Leakes departure. "NeNe is my friend, and I know her as Linnethia, I don't know her as this person on reality TV, just what I watch," Williams said to host Cohen. "I believe that this is not a truth."She continued: "NeNe has quit the show several times and you'll have her back. NeNe likes attention, dramatic attention. I don't know what NeNe's going to be doing for money. I'm not trying to count coins, but the 'Housewives' is that one thing that all the girls use to promote their other stuff." Shortly after, Leakes took to Twitter to share her thoughts. In several tweets, she called Williams and Cohen out for "using her for ratings.""She on cocaine so they should stop using her to talk," Leakes <a href="https://twitter.com/NeNeLeakes/status/1310442658695872513?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1310442658695872513%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Few.com%2Ftv%2Fnene-leakes-slams-wendy-williams-andy-cohen-real-housewives-atlanta-exit%2F">wrote on Twitter</a>.
