“Baby, when I say the girls showed up, they showed OUT. The love has been so real, we had no choice but to run it back in more cities,” Leakes said in a statement of their decision to extend the tour. “This tour is fun, it’s exciting, it’s honest and it’s exactly what the fans have been asking for. If you thought the first shows were something, just wait… we’re taking it up another level.”
Leakes is an original Real Housewives of Atlanta star, one of the most prominent and viral Housewives from the entire franchise. King himself began as an associate producer of the reality series during its inaugural season, and eventually became an EP for seasons six through nine. He has continued to dominate the unscripted space as the founder and CEO of Kingdom Reign Entertainment, and continues to offer commentary and interview reality TV talent via his Reality with The King podcast.
“We went into this just wanting to give fans something authentic, and the response has been incredible,” said King. “Selling out those first shows told us everything we needed to know. People are showing up for the laughs, the honesty, the unfiltered conversations about pop culture, relationships and all the moments they’ve been talking about for years. Expanding to more cities just felt like the natural next step.”
Leakes additionally hosts The NeNe Leakes Show podcast, and is gearing up for her big homecoming to the Real Housewives franchise in Bravo’s upcoming Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th, the upcoming series in celebration of the franchise’s landmark 20th anniversary.
