Cynthia Bailey and her husband Peter Thomas have had their fair share of ups and downs.
After Cynthia lent Peter money to start his former restaurant/lounge Uptown and the venture went under, the couple is again facing a similar situation.
In a preview for the new season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Peter reveals to Cynthia that their new bar, Bar One, is facing foreclosure and they have to figure out how to get through this financial crisis.
“When Peter told me about the issues we were having at Bar One, I immediately felt deja vu: ‘Here we go. We’re back to Uptown,’” Cynthia told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
“Financial issues are just huge in a new marriage. We were struggling even to get married and then once I finally feel like I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, I got hit with the bomb.”
It was frightening for Cynthia to hear that they might lose.
“That was devastating because I’m not comfortable when things are going crazy,” she admitted. “I like to have a plan and I like the plan to work. I don’t want to do all those steps and then it just backfires and we’re back to square one.”
And Bar One’s issues still haven’t been resolved.
“It’s still something we’re dealing with,” Cynthia revealed. “It’s not rectified even right now.”
They are trying to buy the property so that they don’t lose their business.
“We’re taking steps to try to buy the property,” Cynthia explained. “We were comfortable renting it and it’s a whole other set of things that come with buying, so that’s where we are and I’m just hoping it works out.”
But Cynthia and Peter’s problems don’t end at the financial frustrations that they are facing – Peter is also upset with Cynthia for spending too much time working and not enough time focusing on their marriage.RELATED: Cynthia Bailey Reveals Troubled Friendship With NeNe Leakes, Says Of Porsha Stewart: ‘We’re Just Not On The Same Page’
“All I do is work,” Cynthia confessed.
“That’s one of the other issues Peter and I are having in our own personal life is now I’m so paranoid and scared of being broke again that we even struggle for a date night.”
“Peter’s very frustrated with the fact that I’m just a working lunatic now,” Cynthia added. “And now he feels like we never do anything together.”
Marriage is a business.. I would never lend $$ to an iffy business like a bar or a restaurant.. Especially when the proprietor of the above mentioned business has such an abrasive personality.. No one, not even your family thought marrying this guy was a good idea..If a spouse can not accept you for who you are, in your case a successful business woman then have him honor his prenupt and cut your losses..
