NeNe Leakes shares bikini photo on vacation

MIAMI, Aug. 5 (UPI) -- NeNe Leakes shared a bikini photo from her Miami vacation this week on Instagram.

The 47-year-old television personality posted a picture of herself in a yellow two-piece, writing, "Just living the beach life." She and husband Gregg Leakes are taking time off following word she is leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Leakes followed up with another post after fans commented on her slimmed-down figure, explaining, "The other day I posted a pic in my swimwear and for those of you who don't know but have only formed opinions from TV I've never been a big eater!"

"I'm more of a picker and have a bad habit of working all day and NOT eating which hasn't worked in my favor (I'm learning tho)," she revealed. "I continue to eat small portions but I've learned to delete a lot of sugars from my diet and I'm a BIG fan of vitamins."

Leakes was a series regular on seven seasons of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and also starred on spinoff I Dream of Nene: The Wedding. She will appear alongside Anthony Anderson and Betty White on an upcoming ABC revival of the game show To Tell the Truth.
