Phaedra Parks is one of the most remarkable and accomplished women on reality television. In addition to having a successful career as one of the hottest entertainment lawyers in the south, she was a part of the team responsible for bringing, Being Bobby Brown, one of the most culturally relevant reality shows to Bravo before reality television was normalized. Phaedra’s name was known in the southeast as an entertainment attorney serving celebrities and occasionally acted as a defense attorney advocating for criminals that possessed large amounts of available cash, with little to no understanding of the legal system. She was a thriving socialite long before she was cast on Real Housewives of Atlanta along with her formerly incarcerated but very handsome husband at the time, Apollo Nida. Although Phaedra’s clientele list included the fashionable and fabulous, she struggled with the transition from behind the scenes to in front of the camera.
