Kandi Burruss' Mother Makes Things Right With Daughter

Joyce Jones, the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" personality who came on the show as the mother to producer Kandi Burruss, is revealing that she has reconciled with her daughter.

Jones, known as "Momma Joyce" on the Bravo reality television show, has vehemently disagreed with her singer-songwriter daughter's decision to marry her now fiance and broadcast producer Todd Tucker. The backlash from Burruss' fans and fellow cast members seemed to change the dynamic of their relationship and even resulted in the pair not talking for a while.

However, it seems the pair have reconciled and that Burruss' mother is no longer letting comments from her daughter's cast members affect their relationship.

"My relationship with Kandi now is in a very good place," Joyce told HLNtv.com.

Mama Joyce revealed the severity of the rift with her daughter.

"She was going out of town, and I said I am not going to let my baby go out of town and not [give] her a call. We hadn't talked for a couple of weeks," Joyce revealed to HLN. "I was really upset with her. Really, I was upset because of the ladies on the 'Housewives.'"

While she chooses to stay out of Burruss' relationship and better her relationship with her daughter, Joyce said she has yet to reconcile with Tucker.

"I decided to stay out of their relationship and let them deal with their relationship. They're together, but I'm out of their relationship," she said. "It's much healthier, but I have rekindled a healthy relationship with my daughter and my granddaughter, and we're in a good place. I really haven't talked to Todd."

Mama Joyce previously defended herself against claims that she is only seeking financial gain while trying to break up her daughter's relationship.

"My only thing is that I love my daughter. I love my granddaughter, and only thing I've ever done was try to protect my daughter," she told EBONY magazine. "I've never been about her money because I have my own. I never tried to spend her money. I've always tried to save her money, help her save her money. And I just don't want her to let someone else waste what I've worked so hard to help her build."
