The youngest son of Nene Leakes, a former cast member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, had a sudden medical scare that sent him to the hospital earlier this month, according to reports.

Brentt Leakes, 23, is reportedly facing a long road to recovery after suffering a heart attack and stroke, per TMZ sources.

Reports say Brentt was transported to a local hospital where he received swift medical attention.

He was released from the hospital after several days and is currently rehabbing in hopes of a full recovery, TMZ reports.

Brentt’s medical scare comes after his father and NeNe’s husband, Gregg Leakes, died last year following a long-fought battle with cancer.

NeNe’s youngest along with her older son, Bryson, were featured on RHOA during her time on the show.

The former RHOA star has yet to comment publicly on Brentt’s health.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
