Drew Sidora's divorce to her estranged husband, Ralph Pittman, is getting heated.
On the April 20 episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, the reality star, 39, geared up for another court appearance. This time, she and her attorney had three main objectives: get Pittman out of their shared home, obtain his financial records and most importantly, keep their divorce sealed.
"The longer this divorce process prolongs itself, it makes things more contentious between Ralph and I," she told cameras as she made her way to the court house. "There's always opportunity for us to mediate, but I feel like Ralph definitely wants to fight. I'm just hoping in this court date we can make some movement."
Drew explained that keeping the records sealed was her biggest priority as she wanted to shield their children, Josiah, Machai and Aniya, from reading about the ugly nature of their divorce online.
When producers asked what in the records was "so damaging," the Bravolebrity said, "There's definitely more evidence against Ralph than against me," before adding she was "more fearful" about what their kids would read about their father.
After the hearing, Ralph could be seen laughing with his attorney while Drew appeared heated, walking down the hallway with her legal team.
"This is a joke, right? This is a game," she huffed. "We were actually going to be able to get things accomplished with his old attorney, but he wants to fight."
In a confessional, Drew revealed that the judge ruled to "unseal our divorce case." On top of that, Ralph was not required to turn over all of his financial documents and he was permitted to remain in the basement of their home.
"I don't know why Ralph wanted to unseal the case," she continued. "It's like a nightmare. My kids will have to see everything on the internet, and that is my biggest fear."
"Was there ever love? Was there ever a friendship? I just feel like we were better than this," she added.
As Drew and her team drove away from the court house, Ralph began shouting from the corner of the street. After she called him "an idiot" and a "dumbass for that s--- in there," Drew rolled up the window.
In his own conversation with cameras, Ralph said that he felt he was finally "making progress" in their divorce proceedings.
"There are a lot of misconceptions about me and Drew. And I think the biggest misconception is that I didn't care for my wife," he said, adding that he wanted to unseal the records, "because we need transparency with everything going on."
"I've made mistakes throughout the course of our marriage, but Drew has too," he admitted. "And so I believe unsealing of the records gives 100% equal playing field."
When the cameras transitioned to Drew, she began crying and wiping away her tears as her team attempted to comfort her.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
