Phaedra Parks and Apollo Nida

Bound to happen? Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Phaedra Parks, is set to divorce her husband Apollo Nida just as he begins his eight-year federal sentence. See more below!

As of late the couples’ relationship had taken a turn for the worse as Apollo’s legal issues and sentence became a problematic reality.

E! News reported:

Phaedra Parks is pulling the plug on her marriage to Apollo Nida.

The same day that Nida entered prison, Honig issued a statement on Phaedra’s behalf to E! News. Parks “is now putting all of her energy into ensuring the well-being of her two children and making decisions that are in their best interests,” he said. “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.”

Prior to the start of Apollo’s sentence, a source told E! News that he had “been out partying every single night” adding that Nida has “made things very uncomfortable” for the Bravo star.

“When he does speak to Phaedra, it’s always about money,” the source said. “He owes a huge debt in restitution and he wants to know if she’s going to help him with it. ‘Are you going to give me money?’ is always his question. He still wants her financial support.”

Back in July an insider said that their marriage was in jeopardy. “Phaedra and Apollo’s marriage is on very shaky ground right now,” a source told E! News. “Phaedra is trying to keep everything contained and protect her kids.”
