NeNe Leakes’ son Bryson arrested for violating probation

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum NeNe Leakes’ son Bryson Bryant was arrested due to a probation violation.

Bryant has remained behind bars since May 1, when he was booked at a Georgia-based jail for allegedly failing to meet the terms of his probation and failing to pay child support, TMZ reported Friday.

According to the outlet, his probation violation is from when he was found with fentanyl in his possession in 2023.

At the time, Bryant, 36, claimed his name was Brentt Leakes, the name of his younger brother, leading officers to charge him with falsely identifying himself.

Bryant’s drug charge was dropped in a plea deal, but he was still sentenced to 12 months of probation, in addition to paying a $500 fine, completing 40 hours of community service and undergoing random drug tests.

However, in the documents obtained by TMZ, Bryant failed to complete any of the terms of his probation.

A rep for NeNe, 58, wasn’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

The reality star previously addressed her son’s 2023 arrest, candidly admitting that he “needs rehabilitation.”

“He needs a lot of counseling,” she shared on an episode of “Reality with the King” in July 2023.

“Like many families out there, I have family members that are struggling with drugs and certain addictions,” NeNe shared.

“He has an addiction. He’s been struggling with it for years. He’s been in rehab for a couple of times and he still has come back out and relapsed.”

At the time, the Bravo alum claimed she couldn’t help her son any more than she has, adding, “For people who have had children or family members that have been on drugs, they know that they have to be ready.”

NeNe explained she had already “spent so much money on trying to get Bryson where he needs to be” and realized nothing would change.

“Every time I’ve sent him off is because I said, ‘You are getting your ass up and we are sending you off,’” she continued. “But I learned through counseling myself that he has to say, ‘I’m ready to go,’ not me making him go. So until Bryson is ready to make a change, [there’s] nothing I can do.”

NeNe shares her son with her ex Calvin Bryant.

Bryson, meanwhile, was previously arrested for a DUI in 2011 and for driving with a suspended license the following year.
