Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker reunited for their daughter Blaze’s 6th birthday one day after announcing their split.

People reported that the estranged couple threw a Snow White-themed party for Blaze at Ready, Set FUN! in Atlanta, Georgia, on Saturday, November 22. The outlet published a photograph of Burruss and Tucker posing together with Blaze, who wore a princess dress. (The former couple also share a son, Ace, 8, while Kandi has an older daughter, Next Gen NYC star Riley Burruss, 23, from a previous relationship.)

Both Burruss, 49, and Tucker, 53, also posted separate birthday messages for Blaze via Instagram on Saturday.

“Happy birthday to my little twin @blazetucker!!! Time is flying by! I can’t believe you’re six years old already… so strong, smart, talented, creative, big personality, & a winner! My beautiful little princess,” Burruss wrote alongside a carousel of photos. “I love you so much. Everybody give @blazetucker some bday love!”

Tucker shared his own carousel of photos, along with the birthday shoutout: “Happy Birthday to my Baby Blaze! She [is] my Beautiful little princess! She warms my heart every time I see her. @blazetucker where did the time go 6 yrs old! Daddy. Loves you with all his heart!!!”

Only one day before Blaze’s birthday party, Burruss released a statement to Us Weekly to confirm her separation from Tucker after 11 years of marriage.

“After deep thought and a lot of prayer, I’ve made the decision to move forward with a divorce. This is a difficult and emotional time, but my focus remains on protecting my peace, being the best mother I can be, and co-parenting with love and respect,” Burruss, told Us.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum continued, “I’m stepping into a new chapter pouring into my work, my family and my own growth. I’m grateful to everyone who supported us throughout the years, and I ask for privacy, grace and understanding as we navigate this transition with our family.”

The shocking separation announcement was made one week after Burruss paid tribute to Tucker while accepting the Wifetime Achievement Award at BravoCon 2025 in Las Vegas on November 14. She celebrated Tucker for standing by her side throughout all of the mudslinging that comes with being a Housewife.

“To Todd, thank you for surviving the blogs, the shade, the rumors, the lies, the truth, the almost fights, the actual fights, the reunions,” she said with a laugh. “You earned this award too.”

In April 2024, the former couple dodged a fresh round of split rumors shortly after Burruss announced her departure from RHOA. (The singer-songwriter spent 14 seasons as one of Atlanta’s Housewives before quitting in February 2024.).

“It is tough. You’re always on stage and you can’t really kind of relax out in public,” Tucker admitted exclusively to Us. “But for me, I think from doing reality TV early on with her, I really don’t pay it any more. We know what’s going on.”

At the time, Burruss credited the success of their marriage to good communication.

“He’s a better communicator than I am. I’m one of those people where if I get in a mood, I kind of shut down,” she admitted. “I don’t want to talk until I’ve completely calmed down because I’m afraid I’ll say something that I didn’t want to say and it comes off harsh. But he likes to communicate and get it all out. He really helps us get through it because we have to talk through it.”

Tucker added, “What I try to do, I try to reverse things and put myself in her shoes. … It’s a lot of work. It’s a lot of work. But the thing is it’s fun and 10 years went by so fast. It could have been a long 10 years, but it has been an amazing ride.”

Burruss met Tucker when he was working as a line producer on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. They tied the knot at Le Fais Do-Do in Atlanta in April 2014, and subsequently welcomed son, Ace, in January 2016 and daughter Blaze in November 2019.
