I think that everyone is saying all kinds of things about ’rich.’ Not only am I rich from doing some of things I’ve been able to do, but I’m rich in spirit. I’m rich in health. I’m rich in every way possible.

Leakes reframes “rich” as a multidimensional condition rather than a purely financial status. By acknowledging material success (“from doing some of things I’ve been able to do”) and immediately expanding it to “spirit,” “health,” and “every way possible,” she pushes back against gossip or reductive public narratives that equate worth with money alone. The quote functions as a self-definition: she asserts agency over how her life is measured, emphasizing gratitude and wholeness. In a celebrity context—where wealth is often scrutinized—this broader accounting of abundance also reads as a defense against judgment and a reminder that well-being and inner resources can be forms of prosperity that outlast fame or income.
