NeNe Leakes is officially outside - and she's not hiding who she's with.

The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star stepped out Wednesday night at a Memphis Grizzlies game alongside attorney Arthur Horne III, and the pair made their relationship status crystal clear. Video obtained by TMZ shows Horne leaning in to kiss Leakes as they walked out of the arena together, capping off a night where the two were spotted sitting courtside, cuddled up and, as witnesses described, "hugged up" and "really touchy-feely" throughout the game.

Leakes and Horne appeared relaxed and affectionate as they watched the Grizzlies in action, smiling and sitting close. The kiss, captured as they exited the venue, quickly put to rest any speculation that the outing was strictly platonic.

Horne, who runs his own law firm in Memphis, practices criminal defense and personal injury law. While he's not a reality TV regular, his debut alongside Leakes instantly thrust him into the spotlight.

"It's hard for anybody to walk in his shoes. Gregg is that guy. Like I was lucky and blessed by God to have such a great husband for so many years."A Complicated Chapter - and a Promise of Privacy

After Gregg's death, Leakes began dating entrepreneur Nyonisela Sioh later in 2021. Their relationship made headlines when Sioh's then-estranged wife accused Leakes of disrupting their marriage and filed a lawsuit alleging emotional distress and loss of affection. By 2023, Leakes confirmed the pair had split, though reconciliation rumors later surfaced.

Addressing the controversy on the "Reality with the King" podcast in 2024, Leakes said she "would never" wreck a home. "Nobody wants to steal nobody else's problems, honey," she told host Carlos King.

She also made it clear she intended to handle her next relationship differently."My next relationship will be absolutely private. This was the most public I think I've ever been in any relationship - it's more public than Gregg," she said. "And I just feel like it's just best to be private."
