As the couple were married from 1997 to 2011 and again from 2013 until his death, the actress had her own heartbreaking message for Gregg. "I told him I wouldn't have chosen another husband other than him. I said, 'I married you twice, crazy man,'" she said.
NeNe also revealed Gregg had the foresight to leave a folder taped to the wall of his office to help her and their 22-year-old son Brentt navigate the family's financial responsibilities.
"When I opened it up, he had a letter to Brentt and telling us certain things like, where we needed to pay stuff and who was the accounting person to talk to because we didn't know anything," she explained. "And I thought to myself when I looked through all the stuff that he had written and the things that he had left, that that took a lot of strength."
