URGENT UPDATE: Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker made headlines as they reunited for Thanksgiving just days after announcing their divorce. The former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star shared a heartwarming family photo on Instagram on November 23, 2023, showcasing their blended family during the festive gathering.
Burruss captured the moment with her daughter, Riley Burruss, 23, Todd’s daughter, Kaela Tucker, 29, and their two children, Ace, 9, and Blaze, 6. She expressed her gratitude, stating, “Happy Thanksgiving! I truly enjoyed my day with my fam. I hope you enjoyed yours! Now I feel stuffed like a turkey & need to lay down.”
Despite Todd’s absence from the family photo, Kandi clarified, “Before anyone assumes anything Todd came earlier to eat with us but he wasn’t there for the pic. He was not left out or anything like that.” This explanation sparked a wave of support from fans who praised Kandi for ensuring Todd was part of the special day, while others felt she owed no one an explanation.
Just last week, Kandi, 49, publicly revealed her decision to divorce Todd, 52, after 11 years of marriage. In an emotional statement, she shared, “After deep thought and a lot of prayer, I’ve made the decision to move forward with a divorce. This is a difficult and emotional time, but my focus remains on protecting my peace, being the best mother I can be, and co-parenting with love and respect.”
Kandi is stepping into a new chapter, focusing on her work and family as she navigates this transition. She expressed gratitude for the support received over the years and requested privacy as they manage their family dynamics.
In a reflective moment shared with her Amazon Live viewers, Kandi revealed that the split had been “brewing for a while.” Emotions have been “up and down,” she admitted, punctuating her struggles with “moments of sadness.” “So all the times you’ve been seeing me online [all smiles] means nothing,” she added. “I’ve been going through it, child. I’ve been going through it. Life has been life-ing me.”
While Todd has not publicly commented on the divorce, he has indicated in a recent Instagram exchange that he is “dealing with a lot.” Both Kandi and Todd are reportedly committed to maintaining a friendly co-parenting relationship for the sake of their children as they navigate this new phase in their lives.
As this story develops, fans and followers are watching closely to see how Kandi and Todd will manage their public and personal lives moving forward. Stay tuned for the latest updates on this high-profile breakup and its impact on their family.
