Kandi Burruss learned about her divorce rumors from her daughter.
The 47-year-old star is married to producer Todd Tucker but has Riley, 21, from her previous relationship with Russell Spencer and quashed rumors that a split was on the cards by noting that the first thing she heard about it was when it trended online.
“Riley actually sent it to me. She was like, ‘Why do people keep saying that y’all about to get divorced?’ I was like, ‘I don’t know’ I think it came from Todd and I on his YouTube.
“We were doing this thing called Todd and the Glam Squad where I would get my hair and makeup done [and] he would sit and we would talk about hot topics or relationship issues,” Kandi told US Weekly.
The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star — who has Tucker, seven, and three-year-old Blaze with Todd has 27-year-old Kaela from a previous relationship — added that she and her husband are so “passionate” when they have a debate and that fans are always picking up on the slightest things to speculate that they have split.
“We’re passionate when we go back and forth. I think people kind of mistook that to say we were angry with each other. But we’re [just] debating the topic. We’re going back and forth about this. I’ve been like that my whole life. As soon as we have a back and forth, I can walk out the room and be like, ‘OK, now what are we doing next?’ Whereas I guess to somebody that’s watching it, they are thinking that it’s more than that.
“Today I do [have my ring on]. But they’ll be like, ‘Why doesn’t she have on her ring?’ I hardly ever have it on. He always has his on. If he doesn’t have it on — then it’s going to be a problem. That’s going to be a problem,” she said.
