NeNe Leakes Celebrates Son's Return Home After Two-Month Hospitalization

The reunited mom and son turned up on Thanksgiving.

NeNe Leakes celebrated a big win this past Thanksgiving.

Her beloved son, Brentt Leakes, returned home after spending two months in the hospital after having a stroke and suffering heart failure. The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum posted a celebratory video on Instagram on November 25. Brentt and his"mom “turned up” at her popular Georgia nightclub, Linnethia Lounge.

@kingbrentt unlocked the doors tonight for the first time in months @thelinnethialounge. We turning up all weekend long! Thank you all for your love and support! We still have a long road ahead ❤️🙏🏾Live band, DJ, Hookahs, banging food and best cocktails in the city #duluth #datenite #neneleakes #brenttleakes #nightlife #vibes #grownand"exy,” the caption read.

Brentt posted to IG on November 26. The vicenarian shared a series of photos of himself outside Linnethia's.

He also posted a photo of himself donning red jogging suit and fresh cut as he sent Thanksgiving wishes to his followers.

BET.com reported that NeNe shared details of her son's hospitalization in October.

"He's only 23, so he's really young for something like that to happen to him."

She added, "This is not the way I wanted it to come out. We wanted to be able to talk about it ourselves when Brentt was in a better place. So, here I am because I would rather the correct thing be out there than something that's not correct."

She also detailed that Brentt was in dire straits and  "struggling with speaking" but has "shown some improvement." 

We're glad he's home.
