Phaedra Parks previously admitted that she and her new boo hadn’t had sex yet, and also confessed during the taping of the show that she hadn’t had “a lot of dates” prior to Marriage Bootcamp, but wanted to use the show as a means to gage “where he wants to go”.
Wanting to find out if they are compatible, she questioned,
“Are we marching to the same drum beat?”

Not only did the other couples question the validity of their affection, but social media questioned the relationship, as a whole.
Phaedra & Medina ain't got the chemistry for me.
I'm not buying this relationship or storyline.#MarriageBootCamp pic.twitter.com/8IzLgwJf9T— Knit Brand (@BrandKnit) July 24, 2020
Medina is not “horny”. Medina is a grown ass man in a supposed relationship with a grown ass woman and would just like to have intimacy like most grown ass people. If Phaedra doesn’t want to, she should move along. #marriagebootcamp pic.twitter.com/4xDVTrSVtn

Phaedra Parks, 46, previously shared why she made the decision to hold out on adding sex to the equation with Medina Islam, 35 – adding that she feels she moved too quickly with her ex-boyfriend, Chicago radio host Tone Kapone:
“Well, it’s a decision I made. Medina was definitely totally against it, but for myself, I needed to know him in an intimate way outside of a physically intimate way because prior to Medina I dated a guy in Chicago. And that was a long distance relationship and it was very passionate, but when we became physical, it hindered us getting to know each other intimately on any other level.”
Prior to the show, Phaedra also mentioned that she was taking it slow with her boyfriend and admitted he hadn’t met her sons, whom she shares with ex-husband Apollo Nida, yet.
“He hasn’t met my kids yet. We’re just taking it slow with that.”
