The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member is sharing what is next for her teen son as he embarks on growing his career.
Phaedra Parks' eldest son, Ayden Nida, has some big plans for the summer! The Real Housewives of Atlanta kid practically grew up on screen, after being born on RHOA Season 3, and now has a bright future ahead of him.
Phaedra took to her Instagram Story earlier this week, where she revealed that the 15-year-old is trading in Atlanta for the West Coast, now that he is officially done with his freshman year of high school. In a recent interview with The Daily Dish, Phaedra admitted that Ayden has some big dreams when it comes to his future career (more on that down below), and now he is laying the foundation for it.
In the photo, Ayden, also known as "The Prince," can be seen sitting on an airplane (in "first class only," according to Phaedra), looking directly into the camera. "Headed to LA for his internship as a Jr Wealth Manager," Phaedra wrote in the caption of the post, along with the words "proud mom."

Phaedra Parks opens up about Ayden Nida's next chapter
Phaedra, who co-parents Ayden and her 12-year-old son, Dylan Nida, with her ex-husband, Apollo Nida, recently spoke with The Daily Dish, where she gushed over her sons. In the interview, Phaedra opened up about Ayden's big aspirations for his future.
But she admitted that he doesn't want to follow in her footsteps and become a lawyer: "Well, Ayden wants to be a pilot or an investment banker, so that doesn't include the law, but I think the law degree just complements everything," she said.
Phaedra also expressed her wishes for Ayden to follow in her footsteps and attend the University of Georgia. "I'm fourth generation University of Georgia, so we know he's going to the University of Georgia, but it might be for his law degree, or his master's, but that has to be in the equation," she said. "My grandmother went there, my mom, my dad, my cousin. We are big Georgia, you know?"
Phaedra Parks opens up about Ayden Nida's entrepreneurial ventures
In a January 2025 interview with Essence, Phaedra revealed that Ayden has some serious entrepreneurial aspirations. "Oldest son, he's into cryptocurrency," she said. "Being financially sound is very important to me. So, he's worked with my wealth managers, and he invests in Bitcoin and crypto."
She also admitted that Ayden is interested in the beauty world, as well. "He's also into natural haircare," she added. "He wants to develop his own haircare line because, honey, he can tell you everything about your coils and your 4Cs and your 2As and all this stuff. I have no idea what he's talking about, but he can pull your strand of hair out and tell you exactly what's lacking. So I said, if you're this passionate about curls, you should probably do a hairline."
