• 'RHOA' Phaedra Parks Reveals That Apollo Nida Destroyed Property, Threatened to Burn House Down

    Most of the footage currently being shown on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" was filmed before Phaedra Parks's husband Apollo Nida began serving an eight-year jail sentence for fraud. The scenes with the two of them together at times have been just plain scary. Nida had real issues with Parks not supporting him as he prepared for jail and she had problems with him turning back into a criminal that she could not count on. When she did suffer through a conversation with him, Nida seemed to be calmly threatening her. Parks also revealed that Nida destroyed property and threatened to burn their house down.

  • 'RHOA' Phaedra Parks Couldn't Wait for Apollo Nida to Be Behind Bars

    The season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" that is currently airing was filmed late in the summer, shortly before Phaedra Parks's husband, Apollo Nida, was scheduled to surrender to police to begin serving an eight-year prison sentence. It seems like every time he pops up on camera he is spewing hate for his wife's lack of support, and it is clear that he is, at best, a wild card who seems to follow her everywhere. The level of stress on Parks for having to contend with Nida is palpable. It is really no surprise that rather than being upset by the fact that the father of her two kids was heading off to prison, there came a point when any upset turned into relief. In a conversation with her mother on last night's episode of "RHOA," Parks admitted she was anxious for Nida to report to jail in Kentucky. "I won't have to be worried about all his nonsense, wondering what's going on with him, has he wrecked something, has he got in trouble somewhere?" said Parks.

  • 'RHOA' Phaedra Parks Bringing Her Sons to Visit Ex Apollo Nida in Prison for Christmas?

    Could it be that the holiday season is causing "The Real Housewives of Atlanta's" Phaedra Parks to soften her edges just a bit? Fans of the Bravo series have watched in recent weeks as Parks's marriage to Apollo Nida unraveled shortly before he turned himself in to begin serving an eight-year prison sentence last fall. With Nida safely tucked away behind bars, Parks has admitted that she has filed for divorce, and when it comes to her young sons visiting their father in jail, it was not exactly on her to-do list. At least, not until now. Now, according to a report by TMZ, Parks may actually be reconsidering her original stance and a visit to Nida in prison might be exactly the gift that his kids give him. In the past, Parks has said that because she is raising two boys who will turn into men, she does not want to normalize the idea of prison for them. She had feared them thinking it was OK to end up behind bars briefly, and that is definitely not the notion she wants them to ever entertain. Fans have been divided on Parks's treatment of Nida. He got caught up in an identity-theft scam and check fraud, and while he has owned up to his mistakes, he has also hinted that he was trying to take care of his family on a grand scale because of Parks setting that bar so high. Once he turned himself in, Parks distanced herself from him, and some fans seem to think that in doing so she has been a disloyal wife.

  • 'RHOA's' Apollo Nida Launches New Business Venture From Behind Bars

    Just because Apollo Nida has been behind bars for nearly three months now doesn't mean that he hasn't been busy. The fallen husband of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta's" Phaedra Parks has actually just launched a new business venture, from behind bars. Nida Fitness 4% is intended to be a motivational fitness program that Nida hopes will get people up off the couch. The company's tag line, "It's only 4%," is in reference to the fact that a one hour workout is actually only 4% of most peoples' day.

  • 'RHOA's' Phaedra Parks is Trying to Forget Jailbird Apollo Nida Even Exists

    Phaedra Parks may have filed for divorce from Apollo Nida, but that doesn't mean that the drama is over for "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star. After resorting to fraudulent measures to try and support his family, Nida was finally busted for identity theft and other financial crimes. He turned himself in to authorities last September to begin serving an 8-year sentence and the reality show was filming during his last few weeks of freedom. Cameras caught Nida losing his mind because his wife was backing away from him rather than supporting him. Parks has caught some backlash from fans too for coming across a bit vindictive.

  • Apollo Nida Admits He Lied About Kenya Moore's Sexual Advances on 'RHOA'

    We are not quite sure what to make of Apollo Nida's deciding to admit on camera to telling a pack of lies to the entire cast of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" for the past few years. He has insisted for the last two seasons that Kenya Moore had been sexting him, basically offering her services — something Nida claimed to shoot down because he loved his wife, Phaedra Parks. In last night's Nov. 16 episode, Nida offered an apology to Moore for lying about her, and when confronted by the rest of the cast he admitted that every sexual advance he claimed she made was a lie. Obviously, Moore has been vindicated after spending years dealing with non-stop hate from this crew thanks to Nida's lies, but why did he come clean now? Nida has claimed he wanted to make peace with people before he surrendered to prison officials back in September. But was this about him feeling guilty, or was it more like Nida decided to show everyone how dirty and vicious he is because he is going away for eight years anyway?

  • 'RHOA' Apollo Nida Refuses to Take Responsibility for Criminal Activities, Blames Phaedra Parks for Ruined Marriage

    Fans of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" were thrilled to see the show return for a seventh season last night on Bravo. One of the biggest storylines this season will likely be Phaedra Parks dealing with the fact that her husband, Apollo Nida, has been locked up for eight years on a slew of fraud and identity theft charges. In last night's premiere, Nida claimed his mistakes were fixable and absolutely flipped on Parks for not being there to support him. Nida refuses to take responsibility for his criminal activities and selfishly blames Parks for their ruined marriage. Rather than attend Nida's sentencing date, Parks instead took the couple's two young sons and stayed at a hotel until the chaos settled. She knew her being in court was not going to change the outcome and in the meantime she did not want the media attention disrupting her children. When Parks returned to the family home a few days later, Nida went off on her for not being a good wife and standing by him no matter what.

  • 'RHOA's' Apollo Nida was a Wire-Wearing Snitch for Feds, Recorded Conversations with Costar Peter Thomas and 'Love & Hip Hop Atlanta's' Kirk Frost

    'Phaedra Parks must be wondering what the heck she was thinking to not only involve herself with a man like Apollo Nida, but to actually marry and have kids with him. Back in September the Real Housewives of Atlanta star began serving an 8 year sentence for a slew of crimes including identity theft and Parks confirmed just a few short weeks later that she was definitely divorcing the con man. In the months leading up to turning himself in, Nida was working hard to find a way to strike a deal with the feds and that apparently included wearing a wire.
