Phaedra Parks is back on the market and she isn’t shy about putting herself out there. The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star sparked buzz at Page Six’s inaugural “Virtual Reali-Tea” Awards when she revealed her interest in a younger reality star — and hinted at burying a long-running feud with one of her castmates.
Phaedra Parks Flirts With Harry Jowsey at Virtual Reali-Tea Awards
At the New York City ceremony, co-hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real teased Parks about her red carpet behavior at the 2025 Primetime Emmys.
“I kind of love that you treated the red carpet almost as a dating app,” Murphy said, to which Parks, 51, laughed, “I did.”
The crowd cheered when Real called out her flirty exchanges. “Did y’all see Phaedra getting flirty? Jason Isaacs, Harry Jowsey, Walton Goggins,” he joked.
Parks quickly singled out Jowsey, saying, “Harry Jowsey, make that happen. He is so cute.”
The attorney and former “Married to Medicine” star revealed she told the “Too Hot to Handle” and DWTS alum, 28, not to “count a cougar out.” Jowsey’s cheeky reply? “I don’t.”
Parks, who won the Made to Shade award at the event, leaned into the moment with a joke about her financial standing. “I said, ‘I got good credit. I’m very wealthy,’” she quipped.
Parks was previously married to Apollo Nida from 2009 to 2017. The couple split after Nida was sentenced to eight years in prison for fraud charges. The exes continue to co-parent their sons, Ayden, 15, and Dylan, 12. Since then, Parks has been linked to Medina Islam and radio host Tone Kapone, while Jowsey has famously dated Francesca Farago, Jessica Vestal, and actress Lucy Hale.
‘The Traitors’ Standout Addresses Feud With Angela Oakley
The Bravo star’s night wasn’t all about flirty fun. Parks also hinted that her feud with Angela Oakley, which dominated “Real Housewives of Atlanta” season 16, may finally be cooling down.
Oakley accused Parks of orchestrating cheating rumors about her husband, Charles Oakley, through a man named Marcus. At the reunion, Oakley doubled down on the claim, saying, “First and foremost, he told me it was Phaedra. Everything you said about me was a lie.” Parks fired back, “I have not said anything about you, darling, because no one knew about you.”
The two failed to resolve their differences at the reunion, but Oakley has since suggested she’s open to reconciliation.
Now, Parks says they’re in “a different place.” She told Page Six she believes Oakley’s attacks stemmed from her status on the show.
“I think people sometimes come on the show and [they] just come for people at the top,” Parks explained. “The cream rises to the top, so you have to aim for the stars.”
Phaedra Parks will return in season 17 of RHOA, premiering on Bravo in 2026.
