Apollo Nida, husband to Real Housewives of Atlanta star Phaedra Parks, has officially arrived at prison, and he is sharing that information with the world.
Hours ago, Nida posted a video to his Instagram account with an update.
“Well everyone I have finally arrived at the penitentiary,” Nida said. “I am about to go asunder, thank you for the support and prayer. Stay tuned, and you’ll hear from me shortly.”
Yesterday, reports surfaced that Nida had gone AWOL from prison.
TMZ reported that Nida was on his way to report to prison to begin his 8-year sentence for money laundering and check fraud when he apparently got cold feet.
According TMZ, Nida “pulled up to the home of Phaedra Parks and went nuts because Phaedra refused to put money in his prison account while he was locked up. She also refused to bring their kids to prison to visit him, and that caused him to lose it.”
Nida then allegedly forced his way inside and started screaming at Phaedra, “What the f*** is the matter with you,” adding, “I don’t give a f*** about the police, call them, I dare you.”
An eyewitness tells TMZ he was demanding property and went inside the master bedroom and starting putting stuff in a big bag.
This incident reportedly occurred while Bravo was filming for upcoming season of Real Housewives of Atlanta.
