Not only were both women registered as keynote speakers, they also spoke back-to-back. To make matters worse, their dressing rooms were conveniently right next to each other. The whole brouhaha started when Wendy’s entourage realized that her dressing room was next to NeNe’s.
Her husband Kevin Hunter who is also her manager demanded they moved NeNe’s dressing room far from his wife’s. While they were still working on that, Wendy went on stage to do a keynote address to the thousands in attendance and talked about ‘ten rules every woman should live by.’
NeNe used to be friends with Wendy before they had a fight over a tweet NeNe made about Reality stars and Wendy’s reaction to it by insulting Nene’s sitcom, this incident happened in 2013 and they stopped being friends.
Anyways, after Wendy’s keynote address, she was followed on stage by Leakes who addressed the audience by saying: ‘I’m your home girl. I live my life as an open book and I’m happy I don’t need ten rules to live by!’
Those two kept going at it for a long time until the event organizers called security to diffuse the situation.

Organizers of The Ultimate Women’s Expo had to refund 80 tickets for patrons who paid to get autographed books from Williams but couldn’t because her husband made her leave abruptly.
Nene even acknowledged there was drama …
