Additionally, Leakes claimed Zolciak, 44, used the N-word to refer to her and another \u201cHousewife\u201d after getting into a verbal altercation with them.<\/p>\n
The suit also claimed that Zolciak called Leakes\u2019 home a \u201croach nest\u201d and falsely implied that she used drugs.<\/p>\n
The following month, Leakes\u00a0accused Bravo of blacklisting her\u00a0for speaking out against the network.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was constantly being retaliated against, being blacklisted, not able to work, being silenced, and so, you know, it was difficult to do,\u201d she told TMZ in May.<\/p>\n
Leakes even went so far as to seemingly take aim at Cohen in a series of tweets.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am happy I was able to help all the other black women get job opportunities that are working for them,\u201d she wrote in August, claiming Cohen had stopped her from working \u201cbecause\u00a0I was a threat to his career.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although Page Six learned in June that Leakes was in negotiations to settle with Bravo, Cohen and NBCUniversal, she\u00a0filed to dismiss the discrimination lawsuit\u00a0\u201cwithout prejudice\u201d in August.<\/p>\n
According to court documents obtained by Page Six at the time, all parties agreed to not \u201cseek recovery of costs or attorneys\u2019 fees.\u201d<\/p>\n
Leakes was on \u201cRHOA\u201d from Seasons 1 to 7 and 10 to 12. In 2020, she\u00a0announced her departure from the reality show.<\/p>\n
