Add another line to Phaedra Parks' resume. The Real Housewives of Atlanta star -- an attorney who has also dabbled in the mortuary arts, fitness videos, and taser sales -- is set to get her very own spinoff show on Bravo, the network announced Tuesday, April 2.

The project, one of 17 new unscripted series planned for the coming months, is tentatively titled Rich People's Problems and will focus on Parks' legal career. (She famously represented Bobby Brown during his 2004 trial for allegedly assaulting then-wife Whitney Houston, and now describes herself on Twitter as a "super sassy but always classy attorney to the stars.")

"When the rich and famous of Atlanta have a dispute, they know that only one lawyer will deliver some cold, hard justice: Phaedra Parks of The Real Housewives of Atlanta," the official description from Bravo reads. "Whether it's friends battling over an $8,000 loan or accusations of stolen Chanel handbags or confusion over a prenuptial agreement and whether it entitles you to two or three live-in staff members, the rich certainly have an odd sense of what qualifies it as a problem in today's world, and Phaedra will be there to help them sort it all out."

Parks' own colorful life will likely come into play as well. The reality star, who joined The Real Housewives of Atlanta in season three, is currently expecting her second child with fitness trainer Apollo Nida, her husband of three years. The couple also have a 2-year-old son, Ayden, and recently released a set of workout DVDs, Phine Body: Donkey Booty Volumes 1 and 2.

Real Housewives Having Real Trouble With Their Real Estate

It's a tough economy out there.

The Real Housewives are feeling the pain too. At least a dozen stars from all the various RH shows, including OC, DC, Atlanta, and New Jersey, have faced some major real estate woes in the past three or so years.

Between bankruptcy, foreclosure, short sales, evictions, and going in default, it seems that many of the cast member have had to sell their houses at reduced prices.

A rep from Zillow says that RHONJ's Teresa and Joe Guidice "were nearly $11 million in debt when their Towaco, NJ home underwent foreclosure. The couple filed for bankrupty and fortunately, are facing their money problems in credit counseling, some of the other Housewives could benefit from."

Yup, times are definitely tough. Even for ladies who love to flaunt their swimming pools, diamonds, and furs. Guess it's time to buckle down and save some money. We can totally imagine a whole new spinoff, The Real Housewives Get REAL. Ha!

Eva Longoria's "Desperate Housewives" Final Season Shoot

Posted Wednesday August 24, 2011 5:38 PM GMT

After getting prettied up in her personal trailer, Eva Longoria was spotted on the set of the “Desperate Housewives” in Los Angeles, CA on Wednesday (August 24).

The Gabrielle Solis actress looked stunning in a short purple dress and flats as she readied for her scenes for the final season of the hit ABC show.

Last week, ABC confirmed that the upcoming season would indeed be the show’s last and Felicity Huffman, who plays Lynette Scavo, weighed in on the announcement.

She told, "Bob Daily and George Perkins and Sabrina Wind -- who are all producers -- came and made an announcement on the set (on Friday). It was lightening! They told me like it was a state secret, like I would get killed if I told anyone."

Enjoy the pictures of Eva Longoria filming the final season of "Desperate Housewives" (August 24).

Bravo Waiting To Decide The Fate Of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills

We don't envy the decision they have to make. Truly, this is a horrible situation for everyone to be in.

Bravo executives will decide in the next day or so the fate of the coming season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The second season of the show was slated to premiere on September 5th, but the apparent suicide of Taylor Armstrong's estranged husband, Russell Armstrong, has put the network in a tough position. Obviously, the couple were in the midst of a tumultuous breakup during the filming of this past season and it would be insensitive to air the footage following his death.

Shooting has yet to wrap, so there is a possibility that execs will scrap the already canned episodes and start over from scratch, but that is a lot of money to throw away. We're not sure how extensively Russell played into the earlier episodes, but it might be possible to edit him out all together. A Bravo spokesperson did reveal, however, that there are no planned shoots for this week.

Whatever they decide to do, we just hope it is in the best interest of Taylor, Kennedy and their family. You can always make more money, but these people are grieving. That should be respected.
