A split of Drew Sidora and Ralph Pittman.

Drew Sidora opens up about her future with Ralph Pittman on The Real Housewives of Atlanta After Show.

Drew Sidora is ready to talk about a potential future with estranged husband Ralph Pittman, thanks to a little help from her friends.

In The Real Housewives of Atlanta After Show video above, Drew, Cynthia Bailey, and Angela Oakley got real about the challenges of navigating relationships in the public eye.

Angela opened up about her struggles with husband Charles Oakley retaining "his single ways" after they were married, and the conversation naturally turned to Drew's relationship journey with Ralph.

"Do you think if Ralph pulled it together, you'd be open to reconciling?" asked Cynthia. "Are you still in love with him?" 

"Well," replied Drew thoughtfully, "I was at a point ... I'm always going to love him."

"Not 'love,' in love," Cynthia clarified.

Drew took a moment to consider before she answered, "No."

She continued, "You know, the journey of men getting to that humility, and growing, because I think everyone has that opportunity ...Some rise to the occasion, and some don't."

Although Drew admitted, "Of course you want your family, and you want your husband, and you want that," she isn't sure that's ultimately a realistic outcome for her and Ralph. 

"You hope that your husband is able to go through whatever they're going through and arrive whole," she explained. "Even if not for us to be together. I think it's important for them to be whole for their children, and for themselves."

Essentially, she recognizes that Ralph "has to go on this journey — hopefully in the basement — I'm hoping he's down there doing some real work."

Still, she revealed, they "may require more of a separation" to properly heal their relationship.

Because with him in the basement, "He sees me in the driveway and it's like a whole thing," laughed Drew.

Are Drew Sidora and Ralph Pittman officially divorced?
Much to Drew's chagrin, she and Ralph are still legally married. The couple initiated divorce proceedings in February 2023 that were ongoing as of the April 20 episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

"The longer this divorce prolongs itself, it makes things more contentious between Ralph and I," she said at the time, "There's always an opportunity for us to mediate, but I feel like Ralph definitely wants a fight."
What is Drew Sidora and Ralph Pittman's living situation?
More than two years into the separation, Drew and Ralph are still sharing their home in Atlanta — though not in the same way they used to.

Per the terms of their agreement, Drew has to vacate the house every other weekend, which she revealed during RHOA Season 16, Episode 6.

"Every first, third, and fifth weekend, I have to leave my house, and Ralph, he gets to come upstairs, basically, to have his parenting time with the kids," without her present, explained the singer.

She added, "It's all very emotional for me. It's sad, and it's probably the hardest part right now, going through our divorce."
