NeNe Leakes' son shows off 100lb weight loss after stroke and heart failure
NeNe Leakes' son Brentt showed off his impressive "100lb" weight loss – just months after his terrifying stroke and heart failure.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star's 23-year-old sparked major concern earlier last year after their intense "life changing" medical emergency.
"Brentt had congested heart failure and a stroke," NeNe said at the time – but now her son seems to be on the mend and is sporting a slimmer frame.
Taking to his own Instagram account, Brentt showed off his before and after pictures – revealing his dramatic transformation after his health scare.
"Focus on you until the focus is you. #100poundsdown," Brentt, the youngest child of NeNe and her late husband Gregg Leakes, captioned the snap.

He was seen walking out of hospital in snaps shared by NeNe, much to the delight of his family.
NeNe shared clips of him walking the hospital hallways to the cheers of surrounding nurses. He had been in the hospital in Georgia since the ordeal in September that year.
Sharing the clip and snaps with her 4.3 million Instagram followers, the 54-year-old wrote: "Nurses are the best." She followed it up with a video of her son hooked up to a machine and treadmill as he learned to walk again.

Shortly after the incident, NeNe revealed her son was having trouble speaking. Two weeks after he was admitted to hospital, the reality TV star provided fans with an update. She said at the time: "Brentt had congested heart failure and a stroke.
"He's only 23, so he's really young for something like that to happen to him."
She confirmed her son doesn't drink or do drugs so this wasn't a factor.
