Apollo Nida has officially moved on from Phaedra Parks and will be getting married once he’s freed from prison. His new love, Sherien, heads to Bridals by Lori to try on wedding dresses in this EXCLUSIVE preview of the June 30 episode of Say Yes To The Dress: Atlanta. “I am marrying my best friend. I love him so much,” Sherien says in the sneak peek.
Apollo is currently still in federal prison after being sentenced to serve 8 years on fraud charges. Apollo and Phaedra reached a divorce settlement after 3 years in 2017. Sherien reveals that she and Apollo met through mutual friends years ago. “We didn’t officially become a couple until he got arrested,” she admits. “I stood by his side when everybody else didn’t. That’s what drew us closer.”
Sherien has about 2 years until Apollo will be getting out of prison. But once Apollo is released, they’ll be getting married. They won’t want to wait any longer to say “I do!”
The synopsis for the episode reads: “The appointment book at Bridals by Lori is filling up as peak wedding season approaches.

With her fiance in federal prison for a couple more years, she has time to browse. But she is ready to Say Yes!
