Phaedra’s back—and she’s not alone. The iconic Bravolebrity revives her alter ego “Frack” in Episode 12 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, airing Sunday, May 25 at 8:00 PM ET on Bravo, as Season 16 leans hard into legacy energy and new-business drama.
Titled “The Frack is Back,” the hour finds Brit stepping into the spotlight with a buzzy event to launch her latest project, Bare and Naked. But the concept—and the name—leave the group more confused than impressed, stirring instant chatter and side-eyes from the veteran cast.
The bigger headline? Phaedra Parks reclaiming space in the group dynamic, dusting off her alter ego for a grand re-entry that’s as strategic as it is theatrical. It’s the kind of move fans have been waiting on, and it’s poised to shake up alliances heading into the back half of the season.
Season 16 has been working to recalibrate the ensemble, blending longtime favorites with newer players like Brit. With Frack back in rotation, Bravo is clearly betting on familiar chaos to re-energize the franchise’s Atlanta arm—and Sunday’s episode delivers exactly that.
