Married Life and Divorce Settlement :

- In 2014, Apollo was sentenced to serve 8 years in prison for fraud and identity theft.
- He surrendered to the federal police in September 2014, and Parks filed for divorce in October 2014. It was said that the two had already been separated for ten months prior to this.
- At that point, Apollo had already moved on from Parks and was engaged to a new girlfriend.
- Parks reported in November 2016 that their divorce had been finalized, but in March 2017, a judge overturned that ruling. His reasoning was that he believed Nida had not been served divorce papers correctly and that Parks had purposely misspelled his name on divorce documents.

- Parks admitted in the finale reunion episode for season 9 that she had merely embellished a rumor she had heard and that her claims were false. She apologized to both Williams and Burruss, but her actions still caused outrage amongst fans.
- Parks also appeared in the show’s 10th season, which aired in late 2017.
