Phaedra Parks on Apollo Nida: I Never Cheated! Only Tried to Help Embattled Husband! Phaedra Parks sat down with Ellen this week and broke her silence on Apollo Nida, saying that she did all she could for her soon to be former husband. The Real Housewives of Atlanta star discussed Nidas prison sentence and the impending divorce that she just went public with after months of speculation. Phaedra Parks on Apollo Nida I work, I just got my fifth college degree ... Im pretty much an overachiever, she said. I have two small children. I just stopped breastfeeding three months ago. So, I didnt have any idea that any of this was going on until he called me and he said Ive been arrested and Im having this problem, but its not true. She famously skipped his July sentencing hearing, which was a key sign that a Phaedra Parks-Apollo Nida divorce was pretty much a foregone conclusion. Parks insists she stood by her husband at the start of the ordeal, however, working with him to fight the case when he first informed her of the trouble he was in. I went out of my way to get the best attorneys, the best investigators, and to do everything I could, Parks explained to Ellen. Im an attorney myself. I wanted him to have the best so we could fight this together, but obviously it did not turn out like that, Phaedra adds, in what is clearly an understatement. Parks thought Nida was a changed person when she met him while he was on parole, but is now raising the couples sons Ayden, 4, and Dylan, 1, alone. Apollo Nida reported to prison last month, and the failed criminal will likely be there for all or most of the next eight years. He didnt go quietly, either. He went AWOL and went OFF on Phaedra the day before he was supposed to start his sentence in a hectic scene that was all caught on Bravo cameras. Real Housewives: 11 Most Outrageous Quotes 1. Phaedra Parks on Education Phaedra has an advanced degree in booty. Dont forget it! This will no doubt make a lot of people watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online, but Parks takes no pleasure in that. Her heart breaks for her sons. It is extremely hard, she said. My heart aches for my two sons because they are the heart and soul of who I am. Thats the best thing we ever did together. We have these great kids. I never wanted to do anything to diminish his character. But [at times] hes done things that werent so cool… werent so nice. She also denies recurring reports that she cheated on the felon during her marriage with a man named Chocolate, a claim she says is just absurd. I think its totally absurd to think that I cheated, Parks told DeGeneres. Theyre saying that I had an affair with a man from Africa named Chocolate. Now, everybody knows that I do love a Snickers bar every once in a while, but its definitely not a man from Africa that Ive ever had an affair with. Asked by Ellen whether she even knows any Chocolate, Parks says she does enjoy chocolate, just not that kind, I dont. I do know Mr. Goodbar though. Insinuating that the rumors came from Nida himself, Parks added, I think sometimes when people are hurting they do things to hurt over people. Theres been a lot of lashing out from Apollo because hes in a place - a very angry place - and I think you hurt the people closest to you sometimes. Its unfortunate.
