Looks like a very messy divorce too. Phaedra is trying to distance herself from his legal woes...... I really wonder hows she did not know what he was up too .....

We've had several threads concerning wives who said they didn't know about their husband's illegal activities. Like Bernie Madoff's wife for instance, it can and does happen.

As far as Apollo and Phaedra are concerned, who knows? He seems to do his own thing.

I feel sorry for their sweet little boys. They could be w/o a father for a very long time.

I don't understand why she would've got involved with him in the first place. Why would a lawyer think it's a good idea to get involved with, much less marry, someone with his background?

For a smart woman, that was dumb.

That is unfortunate and I agree, it's sad for the two little boys. You would think Phaedra would have known better, but like the saying goes... sometimes love is deaf, dumb and blind. She could do much better.

Oh my gosh, I thought this was about Apollo Ono. I'm glad it isn't.

Wonder if they will be no-shows at the re-union.

BTW the latest photos show a slimmed down Phaedra, all of the stress has given her a significant weight loss.

I also read that Apollo will possibly be taking a plea deal, his attorneys are negotiating with the federal prosecutors.

she is going to be the new spokesperson for xenadrine.

i dont really believe that phaedra did NOT know at least a little of what was going on with apollo. she seems to be quite a bit smarter than that.....i do believe that she probably turned her head away about it though. if you husband announces that he spends 8k in one night in a strip club wouldnt a wife wonder where and how he got that much money to use in one night? he really doesnt seem to do "anything" on the show.

He gets paid by Bravo also. Are you saying that he wouldn't otherwise have eight grand to waste at the strip club? Besides his unlawful deeds, perhaps he had a job also!

I wonder if the other housewives who have husbands who associate with the mob are questioned where they get eight thousand dollars from? Especially if they have/had stints in jail? Hmmmm

he may or may not have a legitimate job.....they really never show him doing much of anything except remodeling their home. what would MOST wives say if they found out their husband was throwing around 8k when he goes out? i dont care WHERE they were getting their money.....THAT is a waste. period.

How long of a time period is the shooting done on any of these shows? And do they depict their real life day to day lives? I highly doubt it.

Re: Apollo and Phaedra: Over?

sunshine45 — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:10:22 GMT

i think they generally shoot for around 4-5 months and shooting any one particular housewife can be quick OR can last for hours. of course, the vast majority of the filming doesnt even get shown.......because it isnt needed or is too boring. after that time period it generally takes a few months to edit and get it ready to broadcast.

cant find anything about what apollo actually does outside of the show in real life......other than get in trouble by breaking the law.
