NeNe Leakes Son Arrested Once Again!


Poor NeNe Leakes. The RHOA star has so much going for her yet her son continues to get in trouble with the po po! Nene’s son Bryson Bryant was arrested just yesterday for none other then violating his probation!

Bryson has been arrested several times prior to this arrest and it seems like he may be going through the wrong path! Do you think NeNe should focus more on her children instead of trying to build a brand? Are you surprised by Bryson’s arrest?

    I don’t think the comment about focusing more on her kids is necessary. He IS NOT a teenager he is an adult there’s only so much a parent can do after their child reaches adulthood. It would be different if her younger son was getting in trouble but that is not the case.

    • charay says:

      No she didn’t make a comment. She asked readers do y’all think she should focus more on kid(s) she does have another son that does look up to his big bro. IJS

      • Andrea from Alabama says:

        I think the difference in her older son and her younger son is that he younger son has his father in his life, and has had so consistently. Also, he has other other brothers he could “look up too.”‘ But as Nene said at the reunion, her sons mistakes are not her mistakes. Just because she’s a working mom doesn’t mean she hasnt taught him right, afterall he was adult when she got “famous.” Also, from working within the criminal justice system, I can say that once you enter it, the odds of you not having repeat offenses are extremely low. It’s almost like the deck is purposely stacked against any kind of offender. I don’t think that it’s fair to ask if she should be focused on her because afterall, that is the reason we, as parents work. To provide a better life for our kids. Everyone isn’t fortunate enough to be a stay home mom. As a working parent, it offends me to no end when I see comments like that aimed at Nene, Teresa, and any woman. It’s unfair. Anyone living in this economy should have more compassion. Oh well, just me on my soap box.

        • Buck Henry says:

          Whats with him and stealing razors? Thats what he was arrested for the second time.

          • Andrea from Alabama says:

            Buck Henry, I can’t advise why he stole razors, anymore than I can explain any of the other stupid things he, you, as well as myself have done in our lives. Maybe he wanted attention, maybe he didn’t feel like paying, maybe he fell and bumped his freaking head. Who knows. I will say that since I’ve been working with juvenile offenders, they seem to place a lot of value in what rappers and other “celebrities” are saying and doing, and little to no value in what mom and dad is saying. I can say that is, in my experience, across the board. No matter the race, age, gender, family makeup, or other backgrounds. Kids seem to be borderline obsessed with other peoples experiences and perception. So maybe, he was trying to prove something to someone else. I will say that young adult offenders (16 to 21), are the worse to deal with, because of this issue, and I cannot wait to get out of The Department of Juvenile Justice.

          Move over fire cause I say this ALL the time!

    • Mel says:

      Totally agree..he is not a child but a grown man.

    • Ms M says:

      You know what I can ID with NENE the more you give the more they want, It’s time for hime to stand on his own two feet, she does have another son to care for. She gave him a chance to get a college education and a car and he messed that up, she gave him a second chance and told him to get this stuff together and again he messed it up. I mean how much more can she take. I say Put his A%% out and let him see what it’s like to be in the real world.

  2. Helen Wheels says:

    I think making light of such a thing (“in trouble with the “po po”) is uncalled for and frankly, I’m surprised by it. I thought such thoughtlessness was beneath you, Roxy.

    NeNe’s son is over 21, she has done the best job she can but don’t think that that gives her any comfort. No matter his age, he will always be her heart and her worry and concern for him will never change. However, she can’t live his life for him even though she has to live with his choices.

    • LUCY says:

      Wow Helen..I completely respect your opinion..I am just surprised at your comment…normally that’s not like you. Are you crabby today? That’s what young kids refer to the police as..the po po. I don’t think she meant it disrespectfully…happy Friday.

    • Margie says:

      HW, I work for a police dept and we say po po there. It’s not a derogatory term :)

  3. Melissa says:

    He is not a child he is a 20-something adult – Nene can’t live his life – it’s his to ruin

  4. FREE KROY says:

    No, Nene should continue to build her brand. She raised her son, sent him off to college. Has exposed him to many business opportunities. He is a grown man, he needs to stand on his own two feet. He is young and is making some bad decisions but, he will get it together. Like Nene said, there are many celebrity kids that are out and about doing foolish things and making bad decisions…..Paris Hilton, Lindsey, Brittney, Michael Jordan’s son just got arrested (he has a great mom), Creflo Dollar’s (pastor) daughter, one of the Original OC wives son had a drug problem at like 15 or 16 (can’t think of her name), Carolin’s son’s have been arrested for bar fights, Tamra’s (from OC) had some problems, Lynn’s (from OC) girls we under age drinkers, ect. The list goes on and on. You can do so much, we all make bad decisions it’s just 1000 fold when you are on National TV. Even She By Sheree had a baby at 16 (does that make her mom a horrible individual?). Yes, he is dead wrong and needs to straighten up, but, this does not make NeNe a bad mom.

    • Andrea from Alabama says:

      Now that’s the freaking truth. As I said upstream, I get beside myself when I see comments, questions, or whatever questioning where a parents focus should be. Parenting is DAMN HARD, with two parents. And she has done it alone. She might be a bitch (even though she’s my favorite), she’s doesn’t deserve that. If Nene was sitting on her flat ass, not working, there would be people talking ish. She’s working making a damn great living and people are still talking. This had to be hard, not only for him, but for her as well. As you pointed out, other housewives have had behavior problems with their children, he’s not the first, and unfortunately he likely won’t be the last.

  5. sharon says:

    Though I am not a fan of Nene….he is over 21 so it’s time he takes responsibility for his own actions. She is doing what she wants and needs to earn money.

    I thought the Po po thing was funny…lighten up.

  6. charay says:

    He’s grown now, he knows that law he broke the rules he goes to jail just like anybody else. You can’t feel bad for people that break the law over and over again. Oh well maybe one day he’ll grow up and learn that nene money ain’t gonna take care of him for life.

  7. courtney says:

    I agree if she spent less time worrying about kim renting her house and sheree not building her then maybe her son wouldn’t be a bum!

    • totojessie says:

      From this response, I gather you don’t have any children..

    • charay says:

      Well no I don’t agree. When season 1 started he went off to college so he’s grown now what more can she do. Then season 2 he dropped out and wanted to do the club thing. She did try to help she couldn’t force him to get a real job or stay in college. Season3&4 he was just too grown to not have learned his lesson. I think he thinks he can do whatever because nene is his mama you know.

  8. Sassygrl72 says:

    What she needs to do is not pass judgement on how other people live their lives and raise their kids (that’s what gets people so riled up…her holier than thou attitude). I am sure she thinks she has done a wonderful job, but her son is behaving like a hoodlum. That alone should be proof that you do what you can do and what will be will be. Plenty of lousy parents have raised wonderful children. Every person is different, every family has it’s own dynamic.

  9. LouLou says:

    this has nothing to do with Nene’s parenting now.
    He knows better.

    Roxy and Bryce around same age, clearly she has found something she enjoys and is flying high…. Hopefully Bryce will too, soon!

  10. Maru the Cat fka Sharon Lea says:

    The footage they showed of Nene’s and Greg’s talks showed they truly care and have done all that they could. He just needs to find something he put his all into, he’s young yet. I hope he has good friends, they can sway some people.

    • Margie says:

      I agree. He’s having to learn hard lessons. It’s tough seeing your kids make dumb decisions but you have to let them learn. I feel bad for NeNe. Hopefully, he’ll figure out it’s easier to take care of your responsibilities then suffer the consequences when you don’t.

  11. Andrea from Alabama says:

    Let me say I work hands on in the criminal justice system- particularly corrections. I’ve worked at the state and federal level, in public and private institutions. I currently work at juvenile facility. My youngest offender had been 10 (for rape), and the eldest that I’ve worked with personally was 92 (he killed his 89 year old girlfriend). Ive seen offenders in their 40s whose mothers and fathers ate there every step of the way- never giving up. I can say, from research (I have a Masters in Criminology), and work experience, it is hard to not reoffend once you enter the system, especially those who are on probation. I’m not trying to coddle this adult man, but like I’ve said I’ve dealt everything from rapist, murders, drug dealers, drug addicts and even child molesters. All I’m saying is that, criminals come in All ages, races, genders, socioeconomic backgrounds, and family make up. It’s not fair for us to sit at home and judge thus person when a) we dont know all the circumstance of his inital arrest, or any subsequent arrest; b) his mother, not him, signed up for RHOA. also, dont think it’s fair to compare Bryce to Roxy. Its not fair to either of them. I will say, it seems like Bryce has a good
    support system, with a strong mother. I do believe that he can make a turn around and make improvements in his life- but he doesn’t need us judging and analyzing every little step he takes. JMO.

    • Maru the Cat fka Sharon Lea says:

      Interesting points Andrea. (Wow, it was shocking to hear of the 92 year old who killed his 89 year old girlfriend. His first offense? Did he have dementia?)

      • Andrea from Alabama says:

        It was his first offense. He had been married before and raised a family with his first wife before she died. I believe he and his new girlfriend had been together less than a year, or sometime around a year. He had all kinds of Heath problems, and the doctor advised that dementia was likely bought on by diabetes. He was in the facility that I worked in for about three weeks before we had to send him to a medical facility where he died after being there for three or four days. It was sad to watch. He came in talking (actually cursing), and a seemingly otherwise health “old man.” After being there a few days he began refusing to eat and take his meds, and it seemed, to me, like he was giving up on his life once he realize what he had done. It was sad to see, and one of the cases I will always remember.

        • Maru the Cat fka Sharon Lea says:

          Oh wow, (don’t know another word to use!) that is a really sad situation. It must be hard for you to have to witness these situations.

  12. Daisy says:

    Nene isn’t to blame for her son’s mistakes. He is the one who needs to take responsibility for them and hopefully better choices in the future.

  13. Rach says:

    “Do you think NeNe should focus more on her children instead of trying to build a brand?”

    No, I think Bryson is a grown ass man that knows right from wrong. NeNe is not responsible for his actions and I highly doubt that she raised him this way. She’s not a Jacqueline.

  14. DJ says:

    NeNe did her best with him. As a parent, we can lead our children to water, but can’t force them to drink. She bought him a car to help him (she even told him it wasn’t “free” – he needed to do errands for her with it). She was constantly berating him to get a job, go to school etc… She had people try to mentor him. Bryson was not ready to listen.

    Nene needs a break on this one. Sorry! That’s how I feel.

  15. 2lou says:

    Agreed. NeNe should focus on her career and her youngest. She has tried to give Bryson tough love to no avail. She is not turning her back on him by not supported his stupid decisions repeatedly. I was all in favor of her letting Bryson sit in the pokey (were the po po sends you)a little longer and letting him reflect on his poor decision making. You can lead a horse to water….

    Also saying po po is not making light of the situation in any way. This was most certainly not beneath you in anyway Rox. We say and see reports and blogs that refer to fathers that are in the rears and don’t pay child support referred to as dead beat dads. Is that the technical term.. No . Why the sudden sensitivity.

  16. cats-eye says:

    To me he sounds not very bright someone with a low I.Q. or maybe he is doing this foe other mental issues.I don’t know but the one small item that he is taking really is kinda child like.I really like Ne Ne and she is a good mom and i know he grown but me i would get him someone to talk to like a therapist to see whats going on,but that’s me.

  17. cats-eye says:

    Sorry for the misspells.
