Last month Media Take Out broke the news that Phaedra Parks returned to The Real Housewives of Atlanta. It was a pretty stunning reversal, given that Phaedra was a series regular on the popular Bravo hit series Married 2 Medicine.
Well now we have the tea. Media Take Out confirmed that during taping of the current season of Married 2 Medicine, her ex husband, Apollo Nida, and his wife, Sherien Almufti, were invited to ambush her.
Apollo’s new wife Sherien went off on Phaedra and read her down badly on camera. But that’s not the best part.
According to gossip vlogger Funky Dineva, Sherien brought some friends with her and tried to put hands on the beautiful attorney and reality star. Funky claims that the encounter nearly turned into a fist fight with Phaedra, leaving her feeling unsafe on the franchise.
Media Take Out was told that Phaedra, being the professional that she is, finished out all her obligations with the network/M2M producers, as far as green screen interviews. And after she was done, she successfully make the transition back over to ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta.’
So she got paid for a full season of Married 2 Medicine, and is now getting a second check from Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Looks like Sherien’s shenanigans inadvertently helped her rival get to a bigger bag. WHOOPS!
Phaedra is an American television personality, attorney, activist, businesswoman, author, actress, and mortician.
