Angela Oakley has nothing to hide!
In the season 16 finale The Real Housewives of Atlanta, which aired Sunday, June 29, Angela admitted that her relationship with husband Charles Oakley had been struggling. After revealing they were millions of dollars in debt from her failed house flipping projects, Angela went to see their shared therapist Wendy for guidance on how to move forward with Charles.
“I just needed some advice on how to deal with my husband and all that comes with him,” she said in her confessional. “He’s handsome, he’s famous, he has money, he’s successful. I mean, any one of those things would attract women, and so Wendy has been instrumental in helping us stay married.”
“I have all of my money in these houses, and I’m in the ditch about all of them,” she then told the therapist.

Angela confessed she was willing to end her real estate endeavors to heal her relationship with Charles.
Noting that the emotional, physical and financial toll of trying to sell the properties was “too much,” Angela said she has accepted that she will “just lose them.”
“These houses have put a strain on our marriage,” she claimed. “Because I’m constantly asking Charles to pump more money into these properties, and now he’s at a point where he doesn’t want to. We have since reduced the price on all of these homes. I feel like we’ve done all that we can do in order to protect my marriage. Sometimes, you have to cut off your finger to save your hand, and that’s what I’m doing.”
When Wendy asked what Angela learned from the experience, she reflected on how she “went against” the former NBA player when she told her “not to do it” in the first place.
“I definitely feel so bad about that,” she acknowledged.
Angela also brought up the group cooking event, where a man approached her with rumors about Charles cheating.
“Afterwards, I told Charles what happened, and he’s just like, ‘Whatever they’re saying is a lie. Someone put him here. But you trust me, right?’” she explained. “Charles and I have been through a lot. You know that I didn’t trust him always, rightfully so. But right now we’re good. I trust him. He has proven time and time again, ‘You can trust me.’”
“After losing all these properties, I’m clinging on to my family, they have been my support,” Angela added. “Who would send someone to hurt me and potentially destroy my marriage?”

Later in the episode, Angela found the man from the cooking party and confronted her castmates with him.
When pressed to name the person who set up the encounter, the man accused Phaedra Parks of being the culprit.
“I absolutely have no reason to put anybody up to this nonsense,” Phaedra defended herself. “I’ve already had my marriage destroyed on national TV, there’s no way in hell I’d come for anyone’s marriage.”
Angela, however, didn’t believe her, and the man went on to allege that Phaedra dropped off “an envelope” of things for him to spread in the days prior. When he left — “with no proof” — Angela claimed Phaedra was also the one who gave her the man’s information to track him down.

“Because he introduced himself in front of us!” Phaedra explained of how she knew his full name before declaring: “You’re researching, but you’re failing to tell us that you’re in foreclosure.”
“That ain’t no tea, sis,” Angela quipped. “I will tell you everything I’m going through, honey. And I will get out of it.”
The episode came to an end without the ladies making amends, and Charles leaving Angela behind out of frustration.
“I’m over this,” he said. “I knew he was full of B.S. from the get-go.”
