Kandi Burruss Denies $2M Divorce Settlement Rumors

It seems Kandi Burruss is setting the record straight on the details of her divorce from Todd Tucker. While the ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ alum initially wanted the settlement terms to remain private, she’s now speaking out to debunk some viral reports about the financial agreements. The star claims that she never agreed to pay a hefty $2 million lump sum or specific monthly child support amounts.

Seeking Privacy Amidst Divorce

Kandi, 49, filed for divorce from Todd, 52, in November 2025, after more than a decade together and sharing two children. The couple, who met in 2011 and married in 2014, also brought daughters from previous relationships into their blended family. In an Amazon Live segment shortly after filing, Kandi admitted the split had been ‘brewing for a while’ and that she was navigating the emotional ups and downs.

She emphasized her desire to keep the process as smooth as possible for their children, stating, “We are parents together. We are co-parenting together. We have beautiful children together, so we are trying to make this transition as smooth as it could possibly be for our kids. That is our main concern.” This focus on privacy was a key element for Kandi, who described herself as a private person.

Debunking Settlement Rumors

Despite Kandi’s wishes for discretion, reports began circulating, notably from ‘The Neighborhood Talk,’ suggesting a substantial settlement. These claims included Kandi paying Todd a $2 million one-time payment, $10,000 to $25,000 monthly in child support, covering major childcare expenses, and even relinquishing control of their shared restaurants. However, a source close to the situation has reportedly called these claims ‘false’ and mere ‘rumors.’

During an interview on Atlanta V-103’s ‘The Bigger Tigger Morning Show,’ Kandi directly addressed the discrepancy. She reiterated her preference for privacy but confirmed that ‘the other side’ (Todd’s representation) did not agree to keep the settlement details undisclosed. This suggests a disagreement on how public the divorce proceedings should be.

A Long Road to Settlement

The divorce battle, which reportedly began with rumors of Todd contacting other women, finally reached a “full and final settlement” by early March 2026. While the exact terms remain private due to Kandi’s initial request, she is clearly keen to shut down misinformation circulating about the financial aspects of their separation.
