Even as their divorce proceedings heat up, Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker kept the family vibes strong through the holidays, culminating in New Year's Day fun at an indoor water park. Todd's post declaring family time as his 2026 scheme has fans rooting hard for reconciliation, while Kandi focuses on positive transformation ahead.
Oh, the drama! Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker might be on the rocks—filing for divorce just days before Thanksgiving—but that didn't stop them from serving family goals this holiday season. We're talking Blaze's 6th birthday bash, a cozy Thanksgiving in one home (Todd skipped the pic, though), and plans for a NYC Christmas extravaganza with the kids. Fast-forward to New Year's Day, and there they were, splashing around at an indoor water park with Ace and Blaze. Todd dropped the footage on Instagram, captioning it: “Happy New Year! Here’s my first SCHEME of 2026! Create and enjoy moments w/ family. The Tuckers.” Chile, the internet lost it! Over 2,500 comments flooded in, with fans like @taylorhazel4 urging, “Fight for your family! Ain’t nothing out here in these streets but the enemy! You got a good woman, Todd!!!” And @nursekay_81 chimed in, “For some reason I really want them to work it out.” Others, like @stillchivalrous, got real: “You and Kandi work to figure it bruh. Ain’ sh*t out here.” Even @k.fah.tu declared, “We rooting for you and @kandi ❤️❤️❤️.”
Kandi, meanwhile, kept it all about her glow-up. Her New Year's Eve recap? A balloon drop video from the water park, snaps with Ace and Blaze, and a “Happy New Year” hat. “It’s not even 10pm & we already celebrated the new year & Im probably gonna be sleep by midnight! 😂 I pray that 2026 brings BIG BLESSINGS & true joy to everyone reading this! Positive vibes only,” she captioned. Hours later, she followed up with a video featuring the kids saying “Happy New Year,” adding, “…I’m only here for positive vibes, positive energy, and elevating in 2026. This is going to be an interesting but very beautiful year of transformation and elevation.” Her caption nailed it: “Positive vibes, transformation & elevation!!! That’s what I’m on for 2026!” No mention of Todd in her posts, but the family's still bonding for the little ones.
Legally, it's messy. Todd filed his petition the day before Thanksgiving, pushing for primary custody of six-year-old Blaze and nine-year-old Ace if no agreement, plus joint legal custody and contesting their prenup. Kandi hit back with an amended filing, defending the prenup and seeking joint physical and legal custody, with primary for her. They're prioritizing a smooth transition for the kids, as Kandi previously shared. Fans are manifesting that 11-year marriage magic—will the Tuckers scheme their way back together? 🔥
