RALPH PITTMAN DENIES CHEATING AND GETTING PHYSICAL WITH DREW SIDORA: Last week, Ralph Pittman denied cheating and getting physical on estranged wife, RHOA star Drew Sidora. As previously reported, Sidora and Pittman both filed for divorce in Gwinnett County, GA, citing that their nine-year-long marriage was “irretrievably broken” with no hope for reconciliation. In her petition, Drew accused the My Mind Music CEO of mental abuse and physical aggression. She also alleged that Pittman has cheated on her throughout the marriage. According to RadarOnline, in a response filed last week, Pittman said he never cheated on Sidora and that he never physically assaulted her. Meanwhile, Pittman is also requesting joint custody of their children Machai and Aniya. In his original petition, he asked the court to kick Sidora out of their Georgia mansion they share, but judges have yet to rule on the motion.
