*Apollo Nida, former husband of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Phaedra Parks, was arrested after his wife, Sherien Almufti, accused him of physical assault.
According to In Touch, Sherien called police on Apollo, 45, on March 11. The police report stated that Sherien informed officers she had just returned home from a bar with friends when she and Apollo began arguing about infidelity, accusing each other of cheating. During the argument, Apollo showed her a video of her kissing another man.
Sherien told police that Apollo “pulled her by the hair and pushed her against a refrigerator.”
She described how the situation escalated into a “scuffle” and said she ran outside to call for help. When she returned to retrieve her phone, Apollo had already left.
The police stated that Sherien showed them surveillance footage of the verbal altercation, but it did not capture the physical confrontation. When Apollo returned to the house, he told officers that during their argument, he attempted to take her phone. That’s when Sherien curled up on the ground to protect it, but he managed to take it. He said she ran outside to call for help, but he followed her to return the phone.
The police report also mentioned that Sherien did not have any visible marks or bruises indicative of a physical altercation. She declined medical assistance at the scene.
Apollo was subsequently taken into custody and charged with domestic violence and simple assault. He was transported to the local jail, processed, and released hours after posting a $3,000 bond.
Per In Touch, the charging document read, “I, Keith E. Gammage, Solicitor General for the County of Fulton, State of Georgia, in the name and on behalf of the citizens of Georgia do hereby charge and accuse APOLLO EDWARD NIDA with the offense of SIMPLE BATTERY – FAMILY VIOLENCE, a misdemeanor, for that said accused in the County of Fulton, State of Georgia, on or about March 11, 2024 did intentionally make physical contact of an insulting and provoking nature with the person of Sherien Copes, who is the present spouse of accused, by pulling her by the hair and pushing her.”
Sherien told In Touch, “It was a huge blow out between a married couple that has brought us much closer since then. We have worked through our issues and have been going to couples therapy. The end.”
