Mama Joyce, Kandi Burruss' cantankerous mom, expressed regret to TMZ after Mama Sharon's tragic death from a stroke Tuesday about not patching up their relationship.

She had called Sharon a prostitute, with no factual proof and continued to throw shade toward Todd right through the marriage and afterwards.

She did tell TMZ she will try harder to be nice to Todd. She also does not plan to attend the funeral out of respect for Sharon and not be a distraction.

***

Porsha Williams had been dating some unnamed rich married man, who bought her gifts galore, including a Rolls Royce. (The only reference to this on "Real Housewives" itself came from Cynthia Bailey.)

TMZ said Porsha is selling the Rolls. Even though she has been reduced to recurring role on "Real Housewives" (and the commensurate smaller paycheck), she does have a regular gig now with "Dish Nation."

Still, to live the lifestyle she is accustomed, she may need some other sugar daddy.

Wetpaint reports that Apollo Nida from prison has started a "fitness movement" of sorts online. How he will actually run it seems like a bit of a challenge.

Kim Zolciak and NeNe Leakes will be on "Watch What Happens Live" Sunday at 9 p.m. after the regular episode of "Real Housewives" airs. I hear the pair and kissed and made up to an extent. Kim rarely does much interesting on "Watch What Happens Live" but NeNe seldom holds back.

I'm speaking to both Demetria McKinney (who has yet to appear on the show as an expected recurring character) and Claudia Jordan today. I'll post a new blog entry about what I get from them.
