Wig pulling and cat fights are the order of the day on Real Housewives of Atlanta, but off-screen, life can be much more dangerous for Georgia peaches. Phaedra Parks' former friend Angela Stanton claims that after she wrote a book accusing the RHOA star of running a fraud ring, not only was she slammed with a defamation lawsuit from Parks, but also, she received anonymous death threats!
When Parks filed the lawsuit, Stanton said in a deposition transcript obtained by Radar, "I was receiving death threats. Apollo Nida's co-conspirator in his alleged fraud scheme, Everett Tripodis had called my home personally."
"I have no idea how he found out where I live at," she said. "I was afraid."
Stanton continued, "I knew this case was serious. I knew that a lot of stuff was getting ready to come to light, and I felt as if my life was being threatened. Even now I still feel the same way, and was just talking to my attorney about why Ms. Parks had to have my personal address to serve the lawsuit. I still feel that something may happen."
