Whitfield, who quit after she was unceremoniously fired from Bravo’s hit reality series, recently secured a “win” in court with her ex-husband, retired NFL star Bob Whitfield.

If you recall, last season Bob surprised his ex with a contempt filing in court, which stunned both she and her attorney at the time, Phaedra Parks.

Fortunately the two came to an amicable agreement for the sake of their two kids and Sheree immediately adds about $75,000 to her desired 7 figure divorce settlement.
Bob admits he failed to make 38 monthly child support payments of $2,142 to the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star … more than $81k.
Bob claimed he simply didn’t have the money — and had asked the court to lower his obligation … but that was denied.
Now, the two sides have struck a deal in which Bob has agreed to hand over $75k before Nov. 11 … or face the consequences in court.
In addition to the $75k, Bob has also agreed to pay $1,000 per month for the next 12 months — before reverting back to the original $2,142.
Fun Fact — Back in 2000, Whitfield signed a 6-year contract with the Atlanta Falcons in the neighborhood of $30 million.
Cha-Ching!! Unemployment isn’t looking too bad now huh?
By the way, there was no mention of who pays attorney’s fees… so while Sheree may be sleeping a bit easier with her new windfall, the attorney who took on the case may be in for a long wait for payment, especially since Sheree never paid the two other law firms who represented her in her divorce.
Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is starting November 4th!
