Phaedra Parks Returns, Reclaims Her Crown, And Teases 'Phaedra 2.0'
After stepping away from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" in 2017, the fan-favorite is officially making her comeback to the show that helped make her a household name. And according to Parks, it’s all happening during what she calls her “season.”
“This is my season,” she declared in an interview with Parade, revealing that a mindset shift, saying yes to new experiences, transformed both her career and her life. “Once I decided to say yes to every opportunity, new doors opened for me,” she shared.
In recent years, Parks has become a reality TV staple beyond the "Atlanta Housewives" franchise, with memorable appearances on "Married to Medicine," "The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip," and Peacock’s breakout hit "The Traitors." The latter introduced her to a whole new audience and reaffirmed her place as a reality TV powerhouse.
“From ‘The Traitors’ to going to ‘Married To Medicine’ to returning to ‘Housewives,’ those were moments I said yes to things,” she explained. “It’s just opened the doors to so many collaborations, and I’m just loving these opportunities.”
With her "RHOA" return on the horizon, Parks promises a new era of what she’s calling “Phaedra 2.0.”
Phaedra Opens Up About Her Sons’ Futures
In a recent sit-down with The Daily Dish, the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum opened up about her sons’ budding aspirations, and how her influence might just shape their futures.
“Well, Ayden wants to be a pilot or an investment banker, so that doesn't include the law,” she shared, per Yahoo, with a smile. “But I think the law degree just complements everything.”
While Ayden may be charting his own path, Phaedra hinted that her younger son Dylan could be the one to carry on the legal torch.
“Maybe his younger brother will be the lawyer, you know, 'cause he's the shark, and he's got a quick tongue. Yeah, he would make a great lawyer,” she said.
Phaedra Parks’ Painful Split From Apollo Nida
Parks shares both boys with ex-husband Apollo Nida. Their eldest, Ayden, was born in May 2010, with his arrival featured during Season 3 of "RHOA." Three years later, Dylan joined the family in May 2013.
Just a year after welcoming their second child, Phaedra and Apollo ended their marriage in 2014, the same year he pled guilty to bank fraud and identity theft. He was later sentenced to eight years in prison, marking a difficult chapter in Phaedra’s otherwise high-achieving journey.
Now, with her sons growing up and discovering their own ambitions, Phaedra seems to be embracing this next chapter with both pride and perspective.
