Cynthia Bailey: "NeNe's In an Uncomfortable Situation"

That awkward moment when you're forced to say hi over and over again (thanks, Mama Joyce) to an ex-friend? Yeah, The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Cynthia Bailey feels for her bud NeNe Leakes.

"I think NeNe is kind of in an uncomfortable situation because really the only person she's friends with on the show is me and Marlo," the model-turned-Housewife confides to The Hollywood Reporter. "I think she used to be good friends with some of the other girls she started with."
"I think it's hard working with people you [had] a relationship with and now you guys don't and you still have to be around them all the time," Cynthia continues. "Usually when you stop being friends with someone, the perk is that you don't have to be around them anymore. So, it's like breaking up with your man and you still have to see him everyday -- it's uncomfortable."

Although NeNe's not too concerned with hammering those broken friendships back together, Cynthia's hoping to sit at the smalls lunch table once or twice next season. "It's always a problem that I'm always out with NeNe, so maybe I'll befriend or be befriended by somebody this season. I'm very open to new friendships alongside NeNe," she says.
