Phaedra Parks is undeniably one of the most recognizable stars in the history of the ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ and the Housewives franchise more broadly.
Now, after an extended spell out of the realm of the reality hit, the star is back in the spotlight as part of not one but two affiliated shows.
For, she serves as a cast member on season 2 of the ‘Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip’ and the newly launched ‘Real Housewives of Dubai.’
Stopping by The Wendy Williams Show to promote both shows, Parks chopped it up with guest host Michael Rapaport – who quizzed her on a variety of hot topics.
Indeed, the Housewives aficionado asked the mom of 2 about former friend Kandi Burruss (a feud with whom led to her RHOA departure), Sheree Whitfield‘s romance with Tyrone Gilliams, Nene Leakes, and more. She was also asked about a possible return to the platform.
Head below to see what she had to say…
When asked squarely about Burruss, Parks labeled her a “great businesswoman” and revealed that she’s “seen her out.” She added that their drama was “six years ago.”
On the topic of whether she missed RHOA and a possible return, the 48-year-old reminded Rapaport that not only does she have “many jobs” but also “many careers.” She re-affirmed that her success is “Pre-Housewives.”
Stressing that she does not miss the “scrutiny” that comes with being a peach-holder, Parks playfully quipped:
“I’m yachting in Dubai. I’ll leave the girls of Atlanta on the Titanic.”
Watch the full segment, in which she spills on her dating life, Nene Leakes, Sheree Whitfield, and more…
Perhaps we’re too optimistic, but something tells us folk shouldn’t write off an RHOA comeback for Ms. Parks.
During her Wendy visit, she intimated a continued close relationship with Andy Cohen and added that she’s still friends with Whitfield and other members of the cast.
Add to that her continued reintegration by way of other Housewives shows and it certainly feels like there’s definitely the scope for an ATL return.
In the here and now, season 2 of the ‘Real Housewives Ultimate Girl Trip’ premieres June 23 on Peacock. While the ‘Real Housewives of Dubai’ airs Wednesdays at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo.
Phaedra’s shade is so yesteryear, like her last appearance on RHoA.
Bring back Nene, Phaedra and Porsha! RHOA IS the titanic without them!
Yes I completely agree! They are TV gold. It has become to boring and bland without them!
Ratings don’t lie. RHOA is currently a sinking ship. They need to completely recast.
Meanwhile she’s treading water in a deflating floaty.
