Phaedra Parks of The Real Housewives of Atlanta has been taking great advantage of all the publicity surrounding her husband’s incarceration.
In a newly released interview with Access Hollywood Live, Phaedra opens up (again) about her incarcerated husband, whom she is RUMORED to have filed divorce from.
Phaedra explains to host Billy Bush, that she prefers to keep her relationship issues private, stating:
Although I live my life in public, I don’t obviously live everything in the public.
This is not due to just him being incarcerated, it’s a culmination of things. We are better and healthier individuals now that we are apart.
[Sidebar: I find it kinda odd that Phaedra says she wants to keep her relationship issues private, but then does media like Ellen and Access Hollywood. But I digress.]
Parks also sticks up for Porsha Williams (stating she feels Porsha was bullied during the reunion by Kenya Moore), and discusses the alleged affair with ‘Mr. Chocolate.’

Call it wishful thinking or whatever, because I like both Phaedra and Apollo… but something just doesn’t seem right about all this.
It’s almost feeling like a version of that Nene and Gregg fake divorce’ saga…

I would never diminish my husband, whether we’re married or divorced. He will always be family.
I will always love him. And we will always love our children.

It was all good until Aollo talked to Kenya on camera without Phaedra’s consent and/or knowledge at the time…

It was rumored that producers got Apollo to apologize to Kenya on camera and soon after that drama occurred, Parks took a ‘leave of absense’ from the show (CLICK HERE if you missed that).
Phaedra resumed filming about a week or two later and I’m guessing she got a hefty incentive to return.
Whatever the case, the couple has two young sons and since Apollo is gone on his 8 year ‘vacation’… I’m sure Phaedra has made the best decision for her kid’s futures.
There’s no benefit to mudslinging because we have two very young children.
I want [Ayden and Dylan] to look back and have them think she handled her affairs with dignity and class.
