Who is Brentt Leakes?
Brentt Leakes is the club owner of the Linnethia Lounge, according to his Instagram bio. The club is advertised as being a live entertainment lounge for people aged 21 years old and above.
His bio also says that he is the owner of a mobile hookah company called Who Want Smoke Hookahs.
Brentt has an elder brother named Bryson. Bryson was part of The Real Housewives of Atlanta along with his mother NeNe Leakes. Later it was revealed that Bryson became a father to a baby girl named Bri’Asia, according Distractify.
Brentt’s father and NeNe Leakes’ husband Gregg died last year after losing his battle with colon cancer.
Brentt shared a message on Instagram encouraging his fans to spend time with their loved ones while his father battled from cancer.
“Spend time with your loved ones every chance you get,” the 22-year-old wrote on a Instagram Story. “Time is so…valuable dog. I can’t express it. I’m learning the hard way watching my dad fight every day… Please go create memories with ya people.”

Brentt’s message came just days after NeNe Leakes shared that her husband is “transitioning to the other side.”
“You don’t know what we’re dealing with right now. We walked in this lounge because we had to walk in this lounge because this is our business,” the reality TV star said to patrons of her Atlanta lounge, The Linnethia.
“So, when people approach and say, ‘You’re rude because you don’t want to say happy birthday,’ my husband is at home dying. I don’t want to say ‘Happy birthday,’ okay?”
