The real reason why Leilani Dowding quit The Real Housewives of Chesire has been revealed. "It’s been something Leilani has been thinking of for a while," a source told The Sun. "Family is everything to her and especially in this crisis, she knows what’s most important to her is spending time with her loved ones."
The source added that "Billy is everything to her so she just wants to support him and be by his side".
Earlier this week, Dowding shared the news about her engagement to The Cult rocker on her Instagram page.
"This virus has made me realize what an arse I’ve been taking so many small things for granted. Life can change SO fast in days," she wrote. "I’ve never felt such relief and gratitude that Billy could make it home before the travel ban kicked in."
She continued, "This surreal time has made me reflect on what matters most. It’s actually the BEST timing it could ever be!! I don’t care that there was no party, or a romantic foreign destination," she added. "The only thing that matters, is being together. I’m so lucky and so grateful that he can be home."
Billy also shared the news too, using the same photo on his social media page with the caption, "She did indeed say yes!"
The former Page 3 model was previously married to restaurateur Richard Palmer, who was once married to Raquel Welch. Dowding and Duffy met when she was living in the U.S., where she resided for 15 years, according to The Daily Mail.
Dowding and Duffy moved back to the U.K. last year and appeared on the tenth season of The Real Housewives of Cheshire. During her time on the show, she got candid about not wanting to have kids and Duffy's past cancer battle.
