NeNe Leakes and Carlos King are taking their sold-out “Queen & King of Reality” tour on the road again, adding four new stops after the first run quickly filled up.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the expanded schedule includes shows in Birmingham on May 13, Tampa on May 14, Dallas on June 5, and Houston on June 6. The live show pairs two of the biggest names connected to The Real Housewives of Atlanta for a night of audience Q&As, behind-the-scenes stories, relationship talk, and reality TV commentary.

The tour extension arrives just months after Leakes confirmed she is returning to Bravo. In January, she announced that she would appear in The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th, the anniversary edition of the franchise’s travel series celebrating 20 years of Housewives history. That announcement marked the first official reunion between Leakes and the network since her departure from Atlanta in 2020.

Now, with her Bravo return locked in and fan interest surging, Leakes and King say the demand for their live show made more dates inevitable.

“Baby, when I say the girls showed up, they showed OUT,” Leakes said in a statement announcing the new dates. “The love has been so real, we had no choice but to run it back in more cities.”

She added that the tour gives fans “exactly what they’ve been asking for,” describing the live experience as “fun,” “honest,” and “exciting.”

King echoed that response, saying the original goal was simply to create something real for longtime viewers. “Selling out those first shows told us everything we needed to know,” he said. “People are showing up for the laughs, the honesty, the unfiltered conversations about pop culture, relationships, and all the moments they’ve been talking about for years.”

The partnership between Leakes and King stretches back to the earliest days of RHOA. Leakes was one of the original cast members who helped turn the series into a cultural force, while King worked behind the scenes as an associate producer during the first season before eventually becoming an executive producer from seasons six through nine.
