As we reported more than a year ago, Apollo Nida’s fiancée Sherien Almufti is getting a head start on her wedding planning as she appears on TLC’s Say Yes To The Dress: Atlanta, despite Apollo having served just four years of his current eight-year prison sentence for fraud. We get our first glimpse at the future Love After Lockup starlet in an extended preview trailer for the new season of the southern flavored bridal show, premiering June 9.
All we see of Sherien is a brief look at her from the shoulders up as she checks herself out in the mirror for the first time and exclaims: “Holy sh*t!”
Prior to the trailer being released, Sherien posted on Instagram about being featured on the upcoming season:
Who’s going to watch? ? Y’all need to see which beautiful dress ??I chose. I know my baby @apollonida03 is going to love it, will you? Tune in On June 9th for #TLC’s “Say Yes to The Dress- Atlanta” season 10 premiere. @apollonida03 I love you!! ???????????? #cantwait #love #wedding #positivevibes #livingmybestlife #tlc #sayyestothedress #atlanta
An excited commenter confirmed she will be tuned in before asking Sherien if they had set the date yet. “Thanks love!” Sherien responded. “Big day will be announced soon ??❤️”
Radar Online reports that Sherien will be on the season premiere this Saturday, but I could find no mention of her in the network’s episode synopsis:
In the season 10 premiere, newbie consultant Becca takes on her first bridal appointment after only two weeks in training! It’s no easy task, especially since the bride, Lindsey, is getting married in three months. Not only must Becca find Lindsey a dress she can get in time, but she also has to please Lindsey’s outspoken mom and family, who don’t seem to agree on anything.
Kisha, the second bride featured in the episode, is in search of a dreamy dress for her upcoming fantasy beach wedding. Overwhelmed by a troubled past, a future husband who is a former NBA player [SPOILER: It’s Joe Smith], and more drama than one girl can handle, Kisha is more than ready for her happily ever after.
In addition to Sherien, Season 10 of Say Yes To The Dress: Atlanta will feature some other familiar faces. Here’s a blurb from TLC about the “celebrity guests,” including their rather wordy intro for Sherien:
Celebrity guests this season include The Bachelor‘s Britt Nilsson, Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott and the fiancée of Apollo Nida, the ex-husband of Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Phaedra Parks. Viewers will also see Lori and Monte head to the Big Apple for Bridal Fashion Week, and Lori’s daughter, Mollie, will return to the shop for a few weeks … but this time, she’s taking charge!
Say Yes To The Dress: Atlanta Season 10 premieres Saturday, June 9 at 8/7c on TLC.
