The unfortunate update comes after Gregg was previously declared cancer-free in May of 2019 following his chemotherapy treatments at the time.

Back then, NeNe shared on her platform that: ‘We are overjoyed to say, we saw the doctors for the results of Gregg’s PET Scan that he took last week! The test show, wait for It….. WE’RE CANCER FREE!!! Yes God!’

Gregg was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer in June of 2018 and his battle as well as how it affected their marriage was documented all throughout season 11 of RHOA.

She told People that ‘It’s very, very hard to be a caretaker. People call and they say, ‘How’s Gregg doing?’ and I want to throw the phone and say, ‘How the f**k am I doing? I am going crazy over here, Gregg is wearing me out!’ I’m not good at this s**t! I would rather hire someone. Gregg does not wants me to hire somebody, but I am just not good. I am not good at fluffing the pillow; I am good at buying the pillow.’
