Who Is Phaedra Parks' Ex-Husband Apollo Nida Married To? Meet Sherien Almufti
Apollo, who shares two sons with his ex, Phaedra Parks, secretly tied the knot with his fiancée of six years.
Did you know that Apollo Nida, who formerly starred in The Real Housewives of Atlanta alongside his ex-wife, Phaedra Parks, remarried in 2023?
For those not in the know, it might have been a surprise when Apollo made a guest appearance on the Married to Medicine Season 10 reunion and shared that his wife, Sherien Almufti, is doing well! While Phaedra — who came on board as a primary cast member on Married to Med this season — said she doesn't have a relationship with Sherien, Apollo confirmed to host Andy Cohen, the other Married to Med ladies, and the audience that he and Phaedra have an "impeccable" co-parenting relationship right now.
When did Apollo Nida marry Sherien Almufti?
The 44-year-old, who shares sons Ayden Nida and Dylan Nida with his ex-wife Phaedra, secretly wed Sherien, a real estate investor and developer, on October 14, 2022. Apollo posted photos from the wedding on the Instagram account for his entertainment company, HD Promotions. He wore a blue suit with black accents, while his bride wore a white one-shoulder dress with a midriff cutout.
The newlyweds confirmed the news to TMZ on January 12, 2023, and shared that they tied the knot in an “intimate ceremony with close family and friends” in Atlanta. Apollo’s mother, father, and brother were in attendance, as were Sherien’s sister and her daughter.
Per the outlet, Phaedra, an alum of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and her sons knew about the wedding, but they did not attend.
As fans may remember, Apollo and Phaedra split up in 2014, around the time he was sentenced to eight years in prison for conspiracy to commit wire, mail, and bank fraud. Their divorce wasn’t finalized until 2017.
How long have Apollo Nida and Sherien Almufti been together?
Sherien and Apollo, who have known each other for a decade, became engaged in 2016 while he was in prison. Apollo was released in 2019 after serving five years of his sentence.
Though he and Phaedra divorced, Apollo maintained a friendship with her close pal, RHOA’s Shereé Whitfield. He even appeared on the RHOA Season 14 finale, which aired in September 2022, to walk in the fashion show for SHE By Shereé.
Apollo may have modeled athleisure looks for Shereé’s fashion line, but just a few weeks later, he stepped out in stylish formal attire for his big wedding day.
