"Real Housewives of Atlanta" castmember Apollo Nida is preparing to serve an eight year sentence on a variety of charges, and said that he doesn't think he will be a married man when he comes out.

Nida has been married to RHOA star Phaedra Parks since 2009. In May, he pled guilty to mail, bank, and wire fraud in a Georgia federal court.

In an interview conducted last week, Nida said that Parks didn't show up to his sentencing hearing.

"I'm still kind of salty about that," he told Be 100! Radio.

He said that the court proceedings have reached havoc on his family, and he has asked God for forgiveness.

"It's hell—hell on wheels," he said of the situation.

"I've asked God to forgive me and I've forgiven myself. I had to move on [...] I just really had to bite down. I was going through so much. It doesn't make you less of a man to cry and shed tears.

"I've just really been upset at just how I was raised and that I could possibly be taking my son through the same thing. But by the grace of God, he's still young and we have many years ahead of us. For me, I just can't make the same mistakes."

Parks and Nida have two children together, Aydan, 4, and Dylan, 1.

"I'm still human," he continued. "At the end of the day, I am remorseful. Coming from a non-father, non-mother background, I feel most sad and disappointed that I let my little man down. But at the end of the day, it is what it is.

"You must go and pay and contribute to the piper and do what you gotta do and come on back and be graceful about it."

Nida, 35, filed documents as if he had a debt collection agency in order to access names, addresses, birthdates, social security numbers, and other personally identifiable information. He used that information to claim government refunds, file fraudulent tax returns, open bank accounts, and cash checks that did not belong to him.

His partner in crime, Gayla St. Julien, turned him in after she was apprehended in September 2013. For her cooperation, she received five years in prison.

The reality star also received loans for cars that didn't exist after he created a fake dealership.

He takes full responsibility for the crimes.

"It's all on me," he said. "A lot of people could be held accountable. But at the end of the day, it's all on me. It's over now. I'm gonna pay back the $1.9 million and keep it going. By the grace of God I was able to get that down. I think it was like 14 [million] before."
