Real Housewives star Phaedra Parks is pregnant again.
A representative for Parks confirmed that she and husband Apollo, a personal trainer, are expecting baby No. 2, Access Hollywood reported. The star of Real Housewives of Atlanta has another child, Ayden, born in 2o1o.
The news that the Real Housewives star is pregnant came at an otherwise difficult time. Both Apollo and Phaedra lost their grandmothers. Phaedra wrote about it on her blog on Bravo’s website :
“Many of you have been wondering where I’ve been and why I have not blogged lately. Well unfortunately, both Apollo and I recently lost our maternal grandmothers. In early November my grandmother became ill and I chose to direct all of my energy and focused on caring for her and supporting my mother. Unfortunately, on November 25 my dear grandmother passed away. I immediately sprang into funeral mode preparing for her memorial service and burial. I wanted to make sure her home going service was reminiscent of her spirit: elegant, joyous, and unforgettable! As we were returning home from my grandmother’s obsequies, we learned that Apollo’s grandmother passed away. So, we have been very busy caring for our families and managing the tender moments of loss and grief.”
Prior to the pregnancy announcement, there had been rumors that Phaedra Parks and husband Apollo were on the rocks. But since announcing that she is pregnant, the Real Housewives star had been seen on a beach in the Bahamas where she vacationed with friends and family, including her husband.
Phaedra Parks is not the only Real Housewives star pregnant on the show. Her co-star, Kim Zolciak, gave birth to a baby boy in August of this year.
