Kandi & Todd's Romance

Kandi Burruss Talks The Date Night Mama Joyce Planned For Her & Todd Tucker

To say that Todd Tucker and Kandi Burruss’s mother, Mama Joyce, have come a long way would be the understatement of the century. After all of the drama that had gone down over the years, I never thought these two would be able to be in the same room. Color me shocked that Mama Joyce and Todd are actually getting along. And Mama Joyce took things a step further than that by planning a romantic night for him and Kandi during the last episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta.

I bet all new parents would love for anyone to volunteer herself for a night of babysitting, but am I the only one who would be a little taken back by a mother laying out the sexy products for a daughter and son-in-law. That’s a little strange, right? It was a very sweet gesture that seemed very genuine, but it still wasn’t typical from my mother/daughter experience so I’m curious to know what Kandi thinks about all of that.

I am really pulling for Kandi and Todd to make it as a couple – especially when there are no other solid relationships on this show, but I felt like the camera should have cut away to give them some private time as soon as Kandi slipped into that lingerie. Kandi looked amazing, but I felt kind of awkward being in the room (basically) for all of that.

Then I remembered that this was all going down courtesy of Mama Joyce which I found to be hilarious given her contentious history with Todd and just the fact that she put out sex toys for her daughter and son-in-law. Then again, Kandi does sell sex toys, so it might not have been that weird for her to be talking about those kind of products.

Nevertheless, Kandi did not expect her mother to lay out a date night in that manner. Kandi explained her surprise in an interview with Bravo, “Of course! I was shocked. It was really nice though.”

Kandi also said, “When you have a new baby, all attention goes to the baby and you don’t think to make time for the intimate nights. So I was happy.”

Props to Mama Joyce. Who would have thought that Mama Joyce would be the one consciously trying to keep this couple together!? It’s a stark contrast from her past mission to break them up.

And in case anyone was wondering, Kandi was directly asked, “Did you guys get your groove back that night?” And yes, Kandi actually answered, “Of course! You have to take advantage of your time when you have a babysitter.” Good for them. Praise Mama Joyce.
