Phaedra Parks- Words Cannot Express The Turmoil This Has Caused My Family

Last night was definitely a difficult premiere episode of the Real Housewives of Atlanta for Phaedra Parks, as viewers watcher her marriage to Apollo Nida starting to crumble and his legal issues play at the forefront. Bravo spoke to Phaedra today, and she discussed the situation. 

Phaedra said, “Words cannot express the turmoil this situation has caused our family, and I can’t even begin to articulate how hard it has been. When you face a situation like this, you can choose to either break down or stay strong; I chose to stay strong because I have two young children that need a parent to give them stability and keep the ship sailing. I’ve been criticized for not being at Apollo’s hearing, but the truth is I had been there for him in so many ways for such a long time. By the time all of this went down, it was apparent the marriage was over and my focus needed to be exclusively on the wellbeing of our children. I don’t think there’s a parent out there who wouldn’t agree.”

She continued discussing the situation, claiming, “NeNe and Porsha have been extremely supportive of me and very attentive throughout this entire ordeal, and for that I am extremely grateful. Unfortunately, some of the others decided to use my personal crisis as an opportunity to further their own interests and talk to the media to get press for themselves. The lack of compassion was, at times, shocking.”

We really feel for Phaedra during this tough time. What do YOU think? Let us know.
