Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes went on The Rosie Show and shared some insight on her feud Star Jones. While on Celebrity Apprentice, Leakes memorably tried to quit the show but was outed by Donald Trump. The Huffington Post reports that the growing tension between the women was just one of the reasons why Leakes would end up leaving the show:

NeNe Leakes famously tried to quit “Celebrity Apprentice,” only to be fired by Donald Trump anyway. She talked about her experiences on that show, and particularly her feud with Star Jones, on “The Rosie Show” (Weeknights, 7 p.m. EST on OWN).

Describing her first day arriving to film the show, Leakes said of Jones, “She was standing back and looking at me like, ‘I don’t like reality stars.’ “What you guys don’t know, is Star and I went to dinners together.” Leakes said. The women apparently bonded after a medical incident. “Every night after shows we would go to dinner. We double-dated.”
