Apollo Nida Hurt Another Man Might Parent His Sons if Sentenced to Prison

Apollo Nida is revealing the biggest thought that worries him ahead of a potential stint in prison.

Nida, attorney Phaedra Parks' husband on "Real Housewives of Atlanta," made headlines earlier this year for allegedly creating fake businesses, false bank accounts and using stolen checks while defrauding automotive lenders, according to Access Atlanta. Now, the Associated Press is reporting that Nida, the 35-year-old fitness guru and reality television personality, has officially admitted being involved in conspiracy to commit mail, wire, and bank fraud worth $2.3 million across 11 states.

While Nida will be sentenced in July and faces 30 years in prison, he explained being hurt the most by the possibility of not parenting his children.

"What hurts me the most is the fact that I could potentially be leaving my sons and I resonate with Ayden more because he's four years old now so when he cries out for me and I'm not there for him, then potentially, who knows what could happen," Nida told radio station V103. "Let's just say hypothetically, let's just say my wife wants to go somewhere else. That means another man would be in my household."

He spoke about the possibility of his wife leaving him if he were to go to prison.

"I think Phaedra, in a perfect world, should be supportive as a wife should be ... But if she chooses to derail from the plan, then that's what she chooses to do," he said on the radio station. "Apollo is prepared for whatever happens in life. Whatever's been thrown at me, I deal with it."

He added, "I would like to say I would want her to stay around and do what a wife should do. But tomorrow's not promised."

Parks, the lawyer who moonlights as a mortician and author, is maintaining that her marriage is still intact and that she is standing by her husband amid public legal issues.

"At the end of the day I am a southern belle, we are family and i will support him until this is resolved," she previously said on Bravo TV's late night show "Watch What Happens Live."
