Legal drama seems to follow the “Real Housewives” cast everywhere. In 2014, Apollo Nida, husband of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta Star,” Phaedra Parks, was arrested and charged with fraud, per CNN. Nida pleaded guilty and began his eight-year prison sentence in July of that year. Parks consequently filed for divorce and her rep told E! News, “This situation has put a tremendous strain on Phaedra and her family and she is working hard to bring back a sense of normalcy to everyone’s lives.”
In November 2016, Parks announced to TMZ that her divorce was finalized. However, the following March, the courts reversed the judgment on the grounds that Parks had misspelled her ex-husband’s name and that the terms weren’t fair to Nida, per TMZ. After three long years of battling it out, the divorce was finalized in July 2017, TMZ reported. The two agreed on joint legal custody with Parks getting primary physical custody of their two kids.
During “The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip,” Parks shared with her castmates (via Bravo), “Our divorce was final, and he appealed it. And they granted the appeal. That only happens 1% of the time.” Nida, on his part, blasted Parks during an appearance on “RHOA” Season 14. “Phaedra left me to basically rot. That’s how I look at it,” he told Shereé Whitfield. A source told Page Six, “He realizes the only way that he’s going to get any press is to talk about Phaedra.”
