'RHUGT' Star Phaedra Parks Addresses Rumors of a Return to 'RHOA'

It sounds like Phaedra Parks won’t be back on Real Housewives of Atlanta anytime soon.

Since her recent appearance on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, rumors have circulated online that the 48-year-old reality star is planning a return to the long-running Bravo series.

Phaedra shut down the speculation in a new interview with ET, but did hint that there would be another installment of the Housewives franchise she’d be open to joining.

“I’ve made it very clear, that’s not what I want to do,” she said of coming back to RHOA. “No. I will be yachting. Let them continue to sail away on the Titanic, okay?”

“I don’t want to pick up a peach,” she added. “If I wanted a peach, I would have a peach pie.”

However, she seemed much more excited by the idea of joining the cast of Real Housewives of Dubai, which she’s appeared on this season as a guest. “Now that, is a possibility. That is a strong possibility,” Phaedra said.

She went on to suggest she’s more at home with that show’s cast. “You’ve got to run with people who are obviously running with the same purpose and destination,” she explained. “If you get out of the miry clay, honey, you got to stay out of the miry clay.”

Phaedra made her RHOA debut in season 3 and departed in season 9, after admitting she had spread rumors that Kandi Burruss and her husband Tod Tucker allegedly tried to drug their costar Porsha Williams and their friend Shamea Morton in order to take advantage of them sexually. When asked to discuss her exit on RHUGT, Phaedra said she wouldn’t be “doing that.”

“Well, actually we had spoke about it earlier and so they chose not to air it,” she told ET of the decision not to reflect on her departure. “However, that was — and just to be very honest — that was, what now five and a half, six years ago? And there’s two sides to that story. You only heard one and obviously they chose not to play the other side. And so it is what it is, but I’m living in the present. And I think people realize… the people that know, know, and most of the people knew and they still know.”

It was recently revealed that another RHUGT star would be returning to her original franchise. Find out who!
