Mama Joyce finally accepting Todd Tucker as Kandi Burruss' man? Ha! That will be the day.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta matriarch has been feuding with Tucker throughout her daughter's entire relationship (which Bravo viewers have witnessed time and time again on the show) and although Kandi and Todd have made it official, nothing has changed.

Despite playing nice at the couple's wedding on Friday, Mama Joyce told TooFab that she still has her issues with Tucker.

"I had no reason to bite my tongue," she said of not speaking up during the ceremony. "I'm not gonna be the one to stop her from jumping into the fire. I tried, I did all that ahead of time. Too late for me to pull out of it then, not gonna make a fool outta myself!"

Mama Joyce continued, "Long as she's happy, that's the one that has to be happy. Doesn't make no difference if I'm happy or not, she's the one that has to live with him. I did everything I could do. If she's jumping in the river with sharks, she's gonna get chewed up."

"It's not about me, whether I'm right or wrong," she added. "People show you their best when you're dating them, so if she's seeing the best now, the worst is yet to come."

And Kandi's mom, who has openly expressed her opinion of the 40-year-old producer, shared that there was additional drama when it came to signing the prenup. "I got a little pissed at the bridegroom the night before this wedding," Joyce revealed, going to on to allege that "he kind of held up on signing the prenup and didn't come to the rehearsal dinner because he didn't want to sign it."

"His mom said she didn't see no reason for him to have to sign because they were in love. He was the one who didn't have a damn thing, but that's another story," she claimed. "But from what I understand, he did sign."

Regardless, Mama Joyce did admit the wedding was "beautiful."
