The Daily Dish Married to Medicine

Phaedra Reacts to Criticism She Doesn’t Share Enough on Married to Medicine: “I’m Not…”

Phaedra Parks didn't hold back when responding to Toya Bush-Harris' claims that she fails to share her life with the Married to Medicine cast. 

By Sophie Vilensky

As someone who's been on television for a good portion of her life (she joined The Real Housewives of Atlanta in 2010), Phaedra Parks knows how to live her life with cameras around. And yet, some of her fellow Married to Medicine cast members aren't pleased with the amount she chooses to share on the show — or with them in general.

How to Watch

Watch Married to Medicine Sundays at 9/8c on Bravo and streaming on Peacock and the Bravo App.

During Season 11, Episode 4 of the series, Toya Bush-Harris confronted Phaedra during their trip to a dude ranch. They'd only just arrived and sat down to lunch when Phaedra began talking about sharing affirmations for the vacation: what did everyone want to get out of the trip?

"You know what I would love, Phaedra? We've been around you for about a year, but I don't feel like we know enough," Toya said as all the other women glanced around at each other.

"So, what do you want to know?" Phaedra responded.

"What makes you tick? Like, what pisses you off?" Toya asked. "We all have that moment, so I'm just curious. What's that moment for you? Give me an example."

When Phaedra said she doesn't think she has an example, Toya kept going: "You brought us on this girls' trip for us to all open up. When are you [going to]?"

In a confessional, Toya shared why she wants to get to the bottom of who Phaedra is.

"There's so much more to Phaedra that I would love to know," she said. "She gives us maybe one chapter in a book of about 50."

While Phaedra said that she's a "very calm person," Toya insisted that "something has to piss [her] off." When she asked why she wants to know, Toya said she was deflecting.

"I believe that the reason Phaedra doesn't want to share in this group of ladies is because she wants to keep it surface," Toya claimed. 

"So, what's your moment?" Toya asked again. "This group of ladies, we get very personal. You know what I'm saying? And we get frustrated when people get in our business and don't speak a lot about their business."

Despite Toya's reasoning, Phaedra still wasn't having it.

"Girl, I'm not having this conversation," she responded. "I have great conversations with numerous people in this group."

And that was that.

In a confessional, the mother of two shared her thoughts on the uncomfortable chat.

"You know, I'm not playing tennis every day. I'm a woman of many careers and many accolades," said Phaedra. "So, I don't know if Toya is nosy and messy, or if she just needs something to do."
