The son of a former Real Housewife of Atlanta recently issued an emotional message amid his father's colon cancer battle. Brentt Leakes, the son of NeNe and Gregg Leakes,  recently stressed to his social media followers the importance of "creating memories" with family. “Spend time with your loved ones every chance you get,” the 22-year-old wrote on his InstaStory according to TheShadeRoom. “Time is so…valuable dog. I can’t express it. I’m learning the hard way watching my dad fight every day. Please go create memories with ya people.”

NeNe Leakes recently revealed some shockingly sad news about her husband. According to the former Real Housewife of Atlanta, Gregg Leakes who was previously diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer, is back in the hospital because his cancer has returned. "He's been in the hospital for a week, tomorrow," NeNe 53, told TheJasmineBrand during an Instagram Live. "I'm sure he'll be home in about a week or so. He had to have a surgery." Noting that this is the first time she's disclosed the information of Gregg's condition, NeNe addressed the difficulty of his diagnosis. "It's difficult," said NeNe. "He's super small. If you've ever been around somebody who's had cancer before, he's different. He's different."
