Phaedra Parks Fired from 'RHOA' Over Spreading Drugging and Rape Rumors https://t.co/ybRFmn2x34
— TMZ (@TMZ) May 8, 2017
- Sources close to Bravo have confirmed to TMZ that Phaedra Parks was fired in early April by the network.
- It was revealed over the last 2 weeks on the show that Phaedra had told a vicious lie to fellow cast member Porsha Williams that their fellow cast member Kandi Burruss had told Phaedra directly that she and her husband Todd wanted to drug and take advantage of Porsha sexually.
- Phaedra eventually changed her story on the reunion 3 times; first, she said she didn't remember telling it to Porsha, then, she said she was told by a secondary source (rumored to be now fired producer Carlos King) that Kandi said this until she finally backtracked and said Kandi told it to her directly.
- TMZ says that sources close to production said a scene was filmed of Phaedra telling Porsha that Kandi herself said it BUT Phaedra threatened to sue the network if the clip was aired, so they did not air it.
- Kandi is looking into legal avenues to sue Phaedra for slander and character defamation.
