Phaedra Parks will be forced to open up about her soon-to-be ex-husband Apollo Nida’s illegal activities, the New York Post reports.

The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star, 40, will sit down for a second deposition in her defamation lawsuit against author Angela Stanton, reports TMZ.

Stanton’s book, “Lies of a Real Housewife: Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil,” claims Phaedra was well aware of Nida, 35, committing fraud.

Unlike the previous deposition, the judge has ordered Parks to answer questions about Nida.

Attorneys for Stanton say they need the information to build the defense’s case.

Nida turned himself in to jail on Sept. 10 to begin serving an eight-year sentence following conviction on several federal fraud charges.
