"It's been a long process but we've finally reached an agreement! All hail the Queen for season 10 of #RHOA," Leakes wrote on Instagram alongside an image of her wearing a crown and holding up a drink.

In a second photo where she's eating peaches, she wrote, "Got my eyes closed thinking bout how imma get you bitches together! Let's go #RHOA #thethreatisback #Queen #eatmypeach."

Leakes left the reality show after seven seasons, returning for occasional episodes in recent years. Earlier this year, rumors surfaced that she would be returning to RHOA when her former co-star, Cynthia Bailey, told ET at the An Unforgettable Evening Benefiting the Women’s Cancer Research Fund event in Los Angeles in February that it was "a possibility."

"I have heard that is a possibility,” Bailey shared with ET. "I think she would be a great asset to come back to the show. I mean, when you think of Real Housewives of Atlanta, like, you think of NeNe, you know?”

Last season, Kim Zolciak Biermann also made her return to the Bravo show since walking off in the middle of season five. The Don't Be Tardy star appeared on the season nine RHOA finale and attended Sheree Whitfield's housewarming party.
