Locked up and in love!

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Phaedra Park's ex-husband Apollo Nida got engaged to his girlfriend a few months ago, even though he's currently incarcerated, TMZ reports. The convicted felon is allowing Bravo cameras to document their love story, which began almost two years ago before he went to the slammer.

His future wifey lives in New Jersey near the facility he is currently housed in, and show execs want to keep her identity a secret until the clips air. Nida will appear via phone... ya know, because he can't go anywhere while he serves out his prison sentence. Sources say Parks is aware of her baby daddy's new relationship status but will not be heavy involved in his story line.

Poor Phaedra can't hide under her prayer cloth to avoid this mess!
