After this week’s high-profile showdown between Phaedra Parks and Apollo Nida, it’s no secret that “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” couple’s marriage is on the rocks. But now reports are claiming that our collective assumptions are true and that Parks is planning to divorce Nida.
As we previously reported, Nida skipped out on his prison check-in time on Sept. 10 and instead went home to his wife to argue with her about not supporting him financially and for refusing to bring their kids to prison to see him.
Nida finally turned himself in at a Kentucky prison yesterday, but now that he’s in prison, sources say that the clock has begun ticking for Parks to file for divorce.
According to RadarOnline, Parks has already begun work on the legal documents for a divorce.
“Phaedra has been patiently waiting for Apollo to begin serving his prison sentence, and will have him served with divorce papers at the correctional facility in Kentucky,” a source told the site.
“There was no way Phaedra was going to put her life on hold for the next decade, awaiting Apollo to be released,” the source added. “The marriage was a huge mistake, but did give her their beloved kids. There were serious trust issues with Apollo, and Phaedra suspects he has been unfaithful, and has been burning through money. Phaedra has always been the breadwinner, and she began to resent it.”
Well, Parks isn’t the only one who’s unsatisfied in the marriage. Back in July, Nida complained about Parks skipping out on his sentencing, saying that he felt unsupported by his wife. He even went so far as to say their marriage likely wouldn’t survive.
“I doubt it,” said Nida. “I mean my wife didn’t even show up for my f—— sentencing. So, you know, I’m still kind of salty about that.”
Considering all of the strife between the two, we doubt that they’ll last either. We won’t be surprised if more reports about Parks filing for divorce begin to pop up soon. – nicholas robinson
