Watch out, Cynthia! Phaedra may be a mere 5-foot-1, but she managed to snag a deal with a major modelling agency, Wilhelmina Models in 2017.

Out with the old! Phaedra isn't just moving on from RHOA, she's ditching her digs, too. In late 2017, Phaedra listed the home that she lived in with her ex Apollo for $1.195 million USD.

Phaedra had one of the least savoury exits of any Housewife in history, so it's not surprising she's content staying away from RHOA. The former Housewife told TMZ, "I have no desire to [return]. I turned the page. I love being happy, I love living drama free."

Phaedra's done with RHOA, but she still wants to be on TV. She’s reportedly been shopping her own Judge Judy-style courtroom show. We'd definitely watch!

What in the Trump?! Phaedra told Essence magazine a run for political office is definitely in her future. But now that she's selling her house and after the damage she did to her image in season 9, maybe she should take a page out of Carole Radziwill's book and just run for a condo board instead.

Phaedra and Shemar had a *very* flirty appearance together on Watch What Happens Live, so when she uploaded a picture with him on Insta and tagged it #Bae, everyone was speculating that they were an item. Not so, according to Shemar, who told Extra he had no idea what Phaedra was up to. “This thing, it's crazy to me. I just woke up, like, last week and everybody's like, 'Phaedra, Phaedra, Phaedra.’" Yikes!

Shemar may not be her bae, but Phaedra is dating. She told Us Weeklyshe's been on several dates and met a sports agent who caught her eye on Instagram. "I think I’m hot on the market!" she said.

Phaedra was dragged through all corners of the internet after season 9 of RHOA aired. The haters even found her IRL, apparently. She reportedly received buckets of hate mail at her law office following the reunion.

The one upside of post-RHOA life for Phaedra is more time with the two main men in her life: her boys Ayden and Dylan.

Fresh off of the divorce from Apollo, Phaedra welcomed a new man into her life — actor Medina Islam. They met on a dating app even though they knew each other from the Atlanta social scene (and possibly through Claudia Jordan who he once dated). It didn’t take long for the two to hit it off despite their long-distance situation — Medina lives in LA and Phaedra in Atlanta.

“He’s a really good guy,” Parks told PEOPLE in September 2019. “He’s very calming and soothing and mild-mannered. I always dealt with the bad boys, and he’s very opposite from any guy I’ve ever dated. So that’s refreshing.”

If all goes right, Apollo will be released from federal custody by late November 2019. At that time, he’s expected to move in with his fiancée Sherian Almufti who he started dating while in prison.

According to Apollo, he’s being kept from seeing his sons writing on Instagram, "DON’T WORRY! We will be together soon, No matter what, she can’t keep us apart.”

There’s at least one person on the RHOA cast who wants to see Phaedra back on the show – Ms. Nene Leakes herself who has mentioned Phaedra’s name in several interviews. But when asked about Nene’s name-dropping, Phaedra brushed it off.

“It’s nice to be wanted, but you know, I love my peace. It will always be a great part of my life, and I will never say never, but I’m in a happy space,” she told Entertainment Tonight.
