Kandi Burruss’ ‘Corny’ Family Photo Gets Love from Nene Leakes and Marlo Hampton

Kandi Burruss‘ recent cheesy family photo with her son and husband definitely scored the likes of her “Real Housewives of Atlanta” castmates and fans.

The reality star and her family attended Friday night’s NBA game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics at the State Farm Arena. Burruss and her husband Todd Tucker were seemingly rooting for the Hawks to win, but their team unfortunately lost by 18 points.

Burruss, Tucker and their two-year-old son Ace showed up to the basketball game dressed just alike. They wore button-down denim shirts, with light blue jeans paired with a pair of black sneakers. The mother of two and her husband also sported similar army green bubble vests over their attire.

Burruss’ family portrait won over the hearts of her two cast-mates NeNe Leakes and Marlo Hampton who thought the picture was just “too cute.”

“Awwww look at Aceeee! So cute 😍,” Leakes commented.

Hampton also added two heart eyes emojis “❤️❤️” under her co-star’s photo.

Other celebs chimed gushed over the picture including singer Kelly Price who wrote, “Beautiful family ❤️.”

Fans also fawned over the mother of two’s family portrait and said it was nowhere near corny.

“Love this👍🏽. You all look so awesome. Family time is everything 👍🏽.”

“Thats not corny ❤️ you all Looking FABULOUS I Can’t Believe How Big Ace is Getting He’s The💣.com.”

“Not corny at all❣️ I love it 😍.”

“You are the cutest! Dressing alike looks good on your fam 😍.”

Burruss recently asked fans for suggestions with helping her plan Ace’s third birthday party a few weeks ago. She wrote, “#2yrsold he’s growing up so fast! I can’t believe he will be 3 in January. He wants a Batman party. Do y’all have any suggestions?”

Folks flooded the star’s comments with all sorts of kid party recommendations.

One person suggested, “Plan an airplane party 👍🏾.”

Another wrote, “Why not throw @acewellstucker a Marvel and DC comics birthday party for him in memory of Stan Lee 💙.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
